The dark guardian

C70

KAI LOGAN

I wandered through the dark streets, they were alone and the only thing they heard was the sound of my steps that went without any sense or direction. Serenala that my life was ending , this time there would be no turning back, most of the things that once made me feel afraid were finished with me, the first time I felt about to die I was afraid, but not this time I think it has been enough for me so much suffering and now I have to deal with the fact that I have no powers and even worse, I am the burden of my friends, it was what frustrated me the most, knowing that everyone was fighting and that I was holding my arms crusaders waiting for them to do something for me . I noticed that if I walked through these streets, but I also felt that the temperature of my body was rising more and more, surely the fever... in that I heard some footsteps in the distance but that they were coming in my direction, I assumed that it was some stray or something like that, but it didn't interest me at all, I just kept walking, but suddenly I felt that my body stopped reacting which made me fall to my knees, then to the ground completely. The footsteps were still heading towards me, but my eyesight was getting tired, my eyelids were closing little by little but I could more or less distinguish who was coming towards me .

—I can't believe that Kai's dye is gone and without telling us anything, even being sick he wants to think of himself as a hero, I really don't understand what that boy has in his head—we looked for him in all the streets, but we still haven't found him , he had a defect and it was his pride, but like all good warriors, he did not want to be a burden to us, which he would never be for us.

—He must feel bad to have done that, don't you think so?— Astrid also worried about him , after all he had also saved her from many risky situations since when we were in the central dimension—but one thing I do have very clear and it's that once we find him, that fool will have to listen to me, it's not fair for him to act like a kid knowing that we were going to worry so much.

—and the bad thing is that his power is nowhere to be felt, now his spirit is so poor that we can't detect him— Katsuro was also looking for him.

KAI LOGAN

—I don't understand, why did you rescue me again? if I'm supposed to be your enemy—we were in a house that Ates lived in—this is the second time you've done it and believe me I don't know why.

—I'm just telling you that I saw something in your eyes that caught my attention—he sat on the ground—you know very well that the Volt have you in their sights and that everyone will go after you, but I see that what you did was run away from your friends so as not to put them in danger, what an act of bravery, but let me tell you that even if you have done that, the same result will be, besides, I feel a little sorry for you.

- pity? - it sounded like saracasm - I don't think you have pity for beings like us.

—Believe it or not, there was a time when I had feelings like that for people, but now I'm not like that anymore, I'm a cold and very lonely guy, actually I'm used to being like that and maybe my behavior seems strange to many He walked over to a window.

-You like that? Observe this city and see all the people you are going to devour for sure.

—Actually, I have liked to observe this city for a long time, I see the behavior that the blinds have with others and even with animals, sometimes I envy that life that I could see in them, but I think it is a bit pathetic. In this life you have to be strong to survive and that is what humans have least in their hearts.

"Hey," I approached, "I want to ask you a very personal question, but don't take it the wrong way, I just wanted to know." Why don't you live with the other Volts? Putting that is normal, right?

—I am someone rebellious and although at one point I thought that was the right thing to do, later I realized the truth of everything. Once you live in this world you know that life must have a better reason than the one you are living, maybe right now you don't understand what I'm talking about, but you'll see, we are immortal, we can't die and you reach a point where what you want is death, I'm not happy and even less so with the leader we have, he's a guy full of hate and he's mad at taking power over things, nothing more matters to him than that. If you were in my place I think you would see it from another perspective.

MEANWHILE THE LEADER OF THE VOLT WAS IN A MEETING

-For centuries they have tried to make us less, they have called us phenomena and they have even made movies of us as if we were bad people, we always live marginalized in the shadows, they did not call errors of this life and the truth is that all that has come to its Finally, this is our era and you will have to tremble at our feet, filthy Hymans who always believe they are the essence of that world, but that is why I have gathered all of you here, because we will form a new revolution as we please, we will be the Kings.

"But tell us what is the next step we must take?" Asked one of the many subjects who were there.

—The next step is to take Kai Logan's soul, that way the new era of the Volt will begin and we will be invincible, but for that I need your help, the best Volt in history.

A long time ago I had a student in charge who was very good, his name was Fred, he had incredible skill with swords, he really was a prodigious subject so much so that I thought that in a short time he would replace me, he had many students, but among all the He was the one who excelled at everything. Whether physical or intellectual, he was a complete subject, he had a future ahead of him and also a wonderful life, but he had a great defect and it was hatred, that hatred that ate him alive inside and was what motivated him to fight like an animal, a tireless thirst to win and win , for that part I became familiar with him , since I had the same thought.

It wasn't like that long after he once tried to take my life while I was asleep, fortunately at that moment I was able to cheat death, fighting tirelessly for a long time, until in the end there was a winner and that was me obviously because of the amount of experience I had. he had and strength, that day suppose the difference between a teacher and a student.

Days after everyone knew what had happened, they made fun of him day and night, the pressure on him was so much that he escaped without any kind of warning. I never saw him again in my life, I thought he had died or simply lived somewhere far away, but now I realize something else. I feel that if power is present on earth, but besides that I feel many evil presences, if he is there it is because something big is about to happen. I knew his greed capabilities and I knew that he would be willing to do anything to get absolute power that I always want. I just hope that james and his friends can get control of the situation they will face.

JAMES

This city was too big to search for a person among a sea of people, the sun was going down and I was in the streets looking for Kai, we still hadn't found his whereabouts, but that wouldn't prevent me from asking to search.

I walked between alleys, highways and even central places like shopping malls, but there was still no sign of life.

narrowed my eyes thinking I saw Kai, I recognized him by his hairstyle, but he was walking among the people with some bags, I immediately ran to his direction.

—Kai, wait—I continued my march—I've been looking for you everywhere, why are you doing this? Can't you see we're worried about you, the boys and I haven't been able to be okay all this time. Come on, let's go home.

"Excuse me, but who are you ?" A guy turned around, it wasn't Kai, he just looked like he was from behind.

—I'm very sorry, what a shame with you, I just think he was a friend, but I've confused you—what a painful situation I found myself in. I looked up at the sky and wondered, where have I been?

KAI LOGAN

"I can't understand why you live in such a lonely place like this?" Ates and I were still in the same place.

—If you mean the material things that this house lacks, it doesn't matter, the material is destroyed, but what you carry in your chest is what lasts forever, even after death—he approached the window again— sometimes I think that humans are also happy because they know that their life time is limited, that's why they strive to work, to realize dreams or goals, that's what keeps them going, but someone like me who is immortal, tends to get bored with everything. A long time ago when I was little I remember that I knew that I was not the same as the other children, I knew that the brightness of the sun bothered me, but I always kept that a secret so that they would not brand me a freak or something similar, I had already seen several examples of ill-treatment and I did not want to be part of that.

I even tried to hide it from my friends, but some time later it was impossible to continue hiding it, I could see how everyone got older except me, there came a point where everyone had died and in that town only I was left, it was as if the same story had passed through me .

Some time later other people realized who I really was and they looked for me to burn me alive, it was hard to feel that rejection, I did not ask for life to be born like this, but even more so I tried to take my life in different ways, I did not want to stay in this world for a long time, it was until I met Karius , who today is my boss, he gave me his helping hand, he explained the meaning of our lives, it was up to then that brother-in-law shots were going well, but he was so He just wanted to use me as a pawn, for his Maccabean plans. That's why I don't believe in love or in eternity, for me , that word doesn't make sense, perhaps for you who are mortal if you can have it.

What he is doing right now is gathering all the Volts in the world that are left alive and he plans to go to the underworld itself to be a god, a god who will control everything, without law and without rules, that's why I brought you with me , you are that pass to execute the plan, but if I have you with me we can still delay their plan.

"But that's crazy," I blurted out angrily , " he can't defy the rules of the universe. "

"Well, but the gods don't have rules, do they ?" He shrugged his shoulders.

I understand, but why are you helping me? He's supposed to save you from the bad time you've been through.

-I still have my human side and I am in my right mind to do good, besides he is a cursed, he always showed me the good, but knowing that behind these eyes, that face and his great gesture of helping me there was also a lot of lies, I can never forgive that—he clenched his hands furiously.

"But what are you going to do about it?" I wanted to know since we were in these circumstances.

"I'll defeat him, that's all I have left," he watched through the window.

-you're crazy? He is much more powerful than you— I frowned knowing that what he said was impossible and even more so when he was surrounded by other equally strong guys.— Please let me help you, after all you have been the only one who has believed in my .

—it is not necessary—he placed his hands on my shoulders, looking me in the face—do you know what is the most ironic thing in life ? let yourself be trapped by that bunch of idiots and believe me you also have your powers, all you have to do is look inside yourself and you will see how the rest will flow—he left the room little by little.

The bells sounded, the night fell even more and the danger was stalking all our friends, there were many enemies who were about to reveal their identity, enemies with great power, but there was only a group of boys to return order and La Paz in the city—Unknown.
