Chapter 5: Friendly Manners
[ArchGod of Ember’ Volcano]
Juno approaches the ArchGod, greeting him, presenting him with his success at capturing the fugitives.
“I am glad I could help.” – says the ArchGod
“Now I only need one last thing…” – says Juno
“Yes, I got it.” – answers the ArchGod while handling a ring to Juno
“But before you can use it, you have to actually enter inside of his power first.
In that state it is just a normal ring.” – continues the ArchGod
“Got it.” – says Juno as he leaves in a rush
[Later]
The ArchGod of Entropy is taking a shower on a fountain.
He senses a presence, someone’s approaching him.
“I must advise you I do not like sneaky beings…” – he murmurs
“I apologize, I just came to take you back to your cell.” – answers Juno
“I see…” – says the ArchGod, as he keeps taking his bath
“I intend to do it now.” – says Juno
“I heard you the first time.” – answers the ArchGod
“very well…” – says Juno as he opens a portal
“You think I will just walk upon it?” – says the ArchGod
“I had hope so…” – says Juno
“You are lame.
Let me finish my bath at least.” – says the ArchGod
“…” – sighs Juno, closing the portal
Juno sits on a rock, waiting for the ArchGod to finish his bath.
The ground starts trembling.
Ghost like hand appear from the ground, coughing Juno who couldn’t react in time.
Juno turns around.
It was the ArchGodess of Vengeance.
“Oh I finally get to meet you in person…” – says Juno
“At last you can die without that remorse.” – answers the ArchGodess of Vengeance
“You came for me?” – asks Juno
“Isn’t it obvious?
We are here to finish this.” – answers the ArchGodess of Vengeance
“We…?” – says Juno, as he and the ArchGod of Entropy get circled by 3 other beings:
The ArchGod of Desires,
The ArchGodess of Melancholy,
The ArchGod of Emotions.
“You call…” – murmurs Juno
“So this was a trap.” – says the ArchGod of Entropy
But before Juno could even attempt to set himself free from those ghostly hands, a huge pression smashes him against the ground.
Juno struggles to get up, without success.
“Perhaps you should have chosen your allies more carefully.” – says Korra, as she appears coming from a portal
Ghostly chains appear, chaining Juno’s members, incapacitating him.
“Too bad we still need you to be alive” – murmurs Korra as Juno slowly closes his eyes.
And so Juno wakes up, slowly opening his eyes.
“How interesting.
Who would say the story would turn such a misfortunate road?” – says Kado
Juno’s face was pale as he finds himself chained in the prison, and all the others ArchGod he had jailed back were set free.
“It is actually sad indeed…
They came to us and set them free, except I guess for me, for I had helped you.
They said that you corrupted Gowan, and us, therefor the prisoners were free.
They want nothing to do with you anymore.
In fact, the only reason why they did not kill you, it’s because someone or something is required to keep the powers you have.
Killing you would mean that they would be lost forever, and none wants that.
So I guess you got lucky, sort of.” – he continues
Juno takes a grasp and closes his eyes.
“I can’t use the power of time?” – says Juno surprised
“Those chains are special, they were created just for you.
By Vulcan himself.” – says Kado
Juno is shocked.
“So he betrayed me too…” – murmurs Juno, ashamed.
“Not quietly.
For he helped you, they tortured him to the brick of death.
And they made him forge a weapon capable of holding you.” – says Kado
“I’m sorry…” – thought Juno
“I wonder what is going to happen now.” – says Kado
“Shouldn’t you know?” – says Juno
“I was talking about you.” – answers Kado, for Juno’s surprise.
“What are you going to do now that your powerless and jailed?
They won, didn’t they?” – continues Kado
But Juno does not answer.
The ArchGod was clearly right, there was nothing Juno could do anymore.
“I…” – says Juno, hesitating.
“You what?
You’re powerless.
There is nothing you can do.
You see Juno…
I told you that we had no sides.
We aren’t evil neither good.
We only seek our guts, and right now, you are not what we want no more.
You really thought things would be this easy?
Get the prisoners back, while you were breaking some eggs messing with each others powers…
Is that…is that a tear I see?” – says Kado
“Oh boy…
Since when were you under the impression that any of the ArchGods cared about you to begin with?” – continues Kado
“Pointless.” – says Kado as he approaches Juno jail.
Kado sighs.
“Urango…
She did care about you, in a way.
I on the other hand, even though I do not agree with her…” – he continues, has the cell separating the two starts banishing.
“See?
I am THAT powerful.” – says a echoed voice, the ArchGod of Imagination.
He had used his power to hide Kado inside the prison from the other ArchGods.
“Juno…” – says Kado as he touches Juno’s chains.
“There are many powerful beings in this reality…
Not every one of them acts the same way or with the same ideals…
Some will try to stop you, some will join your cause…
But in the end, none will allow you to succeed.
That is a truth that even I cannot hide from you.
The path you take, it is only up to you.” – he continues as the chains start glowing Gold.
“This is a gift from Urango.
This is the power, that changes reality.” – says Kado the glow runs off.
“The power, that everyone will want.
What you do from now on…it’s entirely up to you.” - he continues as he walks out of the jail, leaving the pocket dimension along with the ArchGod of Imagination’s echoed voice.
Juno was left alone in the prison.
Kado’s words will forever be carved on Juno’s head.
Juno finally opens his eyes, determinated, he breaks the chains by pushing them.
[The Pillar of Creation]
The remaining ArchGods were there, except, of course, the ArchGod of Entropy.
They were having a meeting, discussing about how to take the powers within Juno away, and of course, how they would get rid of him.
Suddenly, a high pressure was sensed by the ArchGods inside the meeting room.
The ArchGod of Vengeance goes out of the room to see who was it.
She sees herself with Juno, outside the Pillars of Creation.
“So you got free uh?” – she says, as she smiles by looking at the chains around Juno’s wrists.
“They still holding your powers, don’t they?” – she says smiling, as she picks up one of her arrows.
She rushes to Juno and the fight begins.
Juno blocks each of her powerful strikes with her arrow..
“This is actually the first time we’ve fought…
Who would say you were such a competent fighter.” – she smiles
She clones herself, on an attempt to out-speed Juno’s movements.
But that does not work.
Juno keeps his cool, fighting the 4 copies of the ArchGodess.
The ArchGodess was delighted to fight Juno.
She was enjoying the fight, waiting for an opportunity to deal the final blow to Juno.
But her amusement didn’t last long, for Juno was able to successfully get rid of one of the four copies of the ArchGodess.
“Damn your really fast.
Almost faster than I am.” – she says, smiling, as they (the 3 copies) start glowing gold
“But I am afraid what is good comes to an ending.
Allow me to introduce myself before your defeat…
My name is Banshi, the ArchGodess of Vengeance!
Godo-Modo” – she shouts as she takes her ghostly form.
Juno quickly learned that in that form, physical attacks would not work against the ArchGodess.
“mille manus feretrum” (= thousand hands coffin) – she shouts
Hundred ghostly hands came out of the ground.
They were all over the place, trying to get a hold onto Juno, who was trying to quickly avoid each of them while also fighting against the 3 copies of the ArchGodess.
Right when it seemed like Juno was about to be defeated by those hands, he closed eyes, focusing.
He then opened them, releasing a huge amount of energy on his surroundings, banishing all the hands as well as the clones and reverting the ArchGodess back to her physical form.
The walls of the Pillars of Creation were damaged by that energy.
“What the..?!” – says the ArchGodess, shocked by Juno’s incredibly amount of energy.
Another ArchGod shows up coming form the Pillars of Creation.
“Yoo what the heck are you doing out there?!” – shouts the ArchGod of Melancholy
“oh...? The Human is here?” – she says
She stares at the damage wall.
“Such a pity…” – she says, as the wall slowly starts repairing itself.
“Is he too much for you?” – she asks, mocking the ArchGodess.
“Nonsense!” – shouts the ArchGodess of Vengeance, turning herself to the ArchGodess of Melancholy
“I was about to defeat him..!” – she continues
“Hey…” – says Juno, getting attention of the ArchGodess of Vengeance
“Your enemy is right behind you.” – he continues as he slashes her back with his sword, injuring her.
She immediately leaves the battle, bleeding, getting herself against the wall of the Pillars of Creation.
“Oh I can see that…” – mocks the ArchGodess of Melancholy
“pf…it was all your fault!” – shouts the ArchGodess of Vengeance to The ArchGodess of Melancholy
“How come? You were already loosing, weren’t you? Ahah!” – she continues mocking the ArchGodess of Vengeance
Juno took this opportunity to enter the Pillars of Creation.
But before he enters inside, a big rock falls right in front of him, blocking his path.
He looks up to one of the Pillars.
“Where do you think you are going?” – says the ArchGod of Desires.
The other two goodness final realized where Juno was and stopped their confrontation.
The ArchGod of Desires descends to the ground, the other two join him.
“Well it seems like this is the end Human.” – says the ArchGodess of Melancholy mocking Juno.
But right when they three were about to confront Juno, a heart shake separates them from him.
“What the…?!” – murmurs the ArchGods
“Are you guys throwing a party without me?” – appears the ArchGodess of Motion.
“So you are working with the Human…” – says the ArchGod of Desires
“I’m working with none.
I just really dislike not being invited to parties.” – she answers.
Now, with the help of the ArchGodess of Motion, Juno fights the three ArchGods all at once.
The ArchGodess of Vengeance kept spawning ghostly hands to incapacitate Juno, while the ArchGodess of Melancholy kept reverting things to the way they were a few moments ago, like their Wounds and the damage they would cause to their surroundings as well their energy drains from their fighting [her powers effect everyone at the same time, she does not choose.], the ArchGod of Desires used his powers to change the amplitude of Juno’s attacks by messing with his feelings [his powers allow him to change a person feelings and stimulate them to act in that way].
The ArchGodess of Motion would not only help Juno avoid their attacks, but she also fights them, controlling their surroundings, throwing big rocks against them, telekinesing them with her powers, incapacitating and injuring them.
Considering their display of their powers, none of them would come out victorious from the battle.
Their battle was attracting everyone’s attention.
Their energy could be senses all around the ArchGod Dimension.
The same feel as when Garaam decided to act started to return to the Dimension.
Suddenly, an immense tension was released, incapacitating every single one of them against the ground.
“What the heck do you thing you are doing?” – it was Kora, along with the other ArchGods that were inside the Pillars of Creation.
She approaches Juno and the ArchGodess of Motion.
“You are a shame to our kind.” – she says as she vows to them.
“Kora…” – Juno murmurs.
“Don’t try.
This time I won’t be so sensible about you.” – she answers as she turns her back to them.
“Chained them in the mountains of time, forever probably.” – she continues
Suddenly, her neck gets involved by chains.
The same chains that were involving Juno’s wrists.
“What?!” – she shouts as she realizes Juno was able to move despise the high pressure she was releasing with her energy.
Juno stood right behind her, connecting his hand chains to her neck.
“This time…I am the one who won’t let you go.” – he says as he decapitates her head.
Everyone is in shock for what had happened.
End of Chapter 5.

“I am glad I could help.” – says the ArchGod
