Prologue 

Soaring through the clouds, she gazed at the natural glaze below, revealing a beautiful view. She quickly slapped her twin sister's arm and said in sign language, "Look below; it's the only reflection that would make you look good." 

"Ha," Azula quickly laughed before leaning into her sister's ear, "Go fuck yourself." 

"I heard that," the twins' mother, Amber, said to Azula 

Necuthual grinned before signing, "What are you going to do if Lonzo is there? It's only a matter of time before he ends-" her sign was cut short by a short swipe at her hands; she quickly avoided her before mouthing to her sister, Naughty, naughty with a shake of her finger

Satisfied with bothering her sister, Netchual continued to observe outside the window as time passed, and they soon were over the city, Holy Maryland 

"Father, I hope you listened to me and didn't sell Orcshire. The internet is saying they are having power surges across the galaxy, something to do with space and time," Azula said, flipping through the virtual Newsletter. 

"Sell my baby never," Luther said in a funny tone, looking back at his daughter before refocusing in front of him.

Necthaul slapped her sister's arm before signing to her

"Told you something is up," before pointing at her father

Azula ignored her sister, though secretly agreeing that something was up and their parents weren't speaking about it

Another slap soon hit her arm, blocking her thoughts as she signed, "Do you think it's about the military?" Neutral showed concern on her face 

Azula then signed back, "You're not afraid of the military, and there's nothing worse than that," she said, rolling her eyes before looking out the window to get a glimpse of the well far in the distance 

Her sister slapped her on the arm, but she ignored her. Azula loved the look of the wells and knew how much money her father made off just one. 

The well pulled at the sky, causing light to disappear inside the formed triangular walls. At the bottom, a massive, small green ray was twirling like a flexible noodle; she couldn't see much from her distance but knew the green light was a result of heavy gases left from draining the well.

Finally, the group of four arrived at their destination: a massive stadium floating in the sky. Lines of floating vehicles like theirs waited for their turn to enter. A drone flew in front of the lines, directing cars to their designated slots as the family arrived at the front. Luther flashed their emblem over their car house, Verdell.

The drone soon projected the emblem back before leading them to a private parking section.

"Alright, girls, at half time, meet us at the phone repair," Amber said to the girls, fixing her makeup in the mirror.

Neither of the girls questioned and quickly hopped out of the car and scurried inside.

"I hope the Angels win. I got my last bit of allowance for that game, " Nechathuals said to her sister.

"Well, that's tough luck because my Unicorns are going to win," Azula responded as the girls reached the private elevator leading to the private rooms.

"Anyone who thinks unicorns are gonna win is just a hater on the Angels dynasty and is just saying that to wish it into existence; WELL, GUESS WHAT? IT AINT HAPPENING, "Necthaul said before slamming her on the elevator button.

"LADDDIIEESSSSSS," a strong feminine voice shouted out behind them. The two turned to see their friend V, who transitioned to a female.

"Hey, OMG, Azula, look at what your man posted on Flock, " V said before quickly pulling up a picture of Lonzo.

The trio hopped on the elevator together.

"I know when a man has 7 inches, trust me." "Gawd, he's 15." Azula looked at V quickly in seeming disgust

"So much room for growth," she replied, and the two giggled before switching to alt accounts to message women in his comments.

"Ugh, look at this hag," Azula said, stepping out of the elevator. Azula and V chuckled together.

"Oh look, who is it? "Necatual said, pointing ahead at lonzo 

Lonzo quickly found them, too, and waved at the trio 

"He's practically saying come fuck me," V said as she began to walk over. "Please don't say anything embarrassing about me Azula said, frozen in fear 

"Oh my god, is she strutting? " necthaul said, trying to hold laughter in watching her friend's ass.

Lonzo, a little embarrassed, greeted V before V pointed towards Azula. This caused Lonzo to become even more ashamed and turn slightly red. He quickly tapped on his watch to change something.

As the Necuthual turned to see her sister's reaction. She only caught her back as it swiftly hit a corner.

Lonzo and V walked up to the necathual

"Hey, so have you heard what's happening?" lonzo said to Necathual

"What with Azula? She always does this; she should be in our section by now," Necathual said, prepared to look for food 

"No, that's not what I'm talking about," Lonzo said before placing his arm in front of her, "Do you not pay attention to the news? It has-" Lonzo stopped speaking and carefully stepped back. As he reactively reached for his blade, only to remember he had forgotten it, he quickly recalled that he had left it behind in his booth.

Necuthual dropped her hand.

"I quite frankly don't care," Necuthual said before returning to her search, walking past Lonzo.

"What, don't you know anything?" V asked her friend to follow behind

"Why do you know something?" Necathula said, walking towards Mic's Rice Stop 

"No, well, I knew the coronation was moved up. Did you even know that?" V questioned

"Nope, I lost last week's duel, so I haven't really spoken to my mom, and as for my dad, he's barely around to talk to," Necthaul said before placing her order

"Gawd, your mom still makes you do that," V asked after placing her order as well

"Well, she claims it helps with sign casting, so Mehki is disgusting, but rein Lo with extra spice is the only right order." Necthaul responded, "More like a justification to shut you up about your terrible taste in food." V said, shoving the crusted Mehki roll down her throat. Necuthual gasped. "No sauce," necathual questioned 

"Hate the sauce," V responded, struggling to swallow before drinking some of her soda 

"When we are done with the military, let's jump that bitch" V chirped as the two sat to eat

"Pass, babes. Once I'm done with the military, the only thing calling my name is Wells baby," Necuthual said in her father's tone. "I'm gonna find me a rich entrepreneur and have ten kids," Necuthual said gleefully

"Speaking of rich young men, have you heard of Daniel Clayton?" Necuthual looked up, confused 

"He's this man that claims to have made a pill that can take away all mana and ki from a person, so if they have no spirit talent, they are essentially ants," V said in a creepy tone, 

"Unicorn shit, no way. If you mean he made a pill that kills on consumption, I'd believe that, but how could someone take away talent." 

"It's not talent, it's genetic," V responded. 

Necathuals looked up at V with anger. "It's not genetics, you heretic; it's a blessing given to us from the soul realm. Maybe if you had more potential, you would know that," Necuthual said before returning to her food.

V just ate in silence after hearing Necuthual's response.

Soon, cheers start growing in the stadium, and the match is about to start.

'I hate judu, but many people make stupid bets on it, ' Necuthual thought.

Necuthual watched as the teams poured out onto the field for the national anthem. After finishing her meal, Necuthual returned to her private booth beside her sisters.

'Perfect chance to look at my progress compared to others, ' Necuthual thought before meditating. Necuthual entered the soul realm and glanced over at her sister and Lonzo, who were talking. 'Still behind, kid,' Necuthual thought, smirking, before zooming off.

She was a small orb free of gravity. In this state, she could see others, like Arua, and the colors people have that shape their identity; all of these have a meaning, but Necuthual was looking at the size. She was compressing everyone's auras so Anyone with a bigger one would stand out. Anyone below her level but still a threat would have a tiny orb of light surrounding them. Any orb of her size would be around the same strength.h Anyone larger would be stronger

'What a dark stadium she thought to herself before something pulled at her lightly 

Without hesitation, Necuthual followed the pulling feeling, which led her to the stadium's phone repair shop.

'I'm not suspicious at all, store. I shouldn't,' but the tug pulled again. 'Ah,' Necathual said out loud to the soul realm in a small scream before pushing her orb Body through the wall.

'Boring' 'weak' 'boring' 'weak' necathuals spoke again to the soul realm, glancing around the back room filled with CPU and two workers quickly walking by, seemingly appearing from the back room as the other guy walked towards the back room with a tray of small dishes of desserts and sandwiches Necuthual Followed behind. 

The man soon turned behind a massive CPU wall; phasing through the wall to follow, she spotted a small hole leading to a basement-like area. Gliding down the stairs below was a room with three couches, a table, and a selection of food. It had two attached hallways and a glass window facing the couches. Natural pressed her orb face on the glass pane below 

'Oo Hikeda ring, I hope we get to fight.' Before she got a better view, she felt another tug pulling her toward one of the halls

'Gawd, this is like dealing with my sister smacking me all the time,' necathual said to the soul realm, only to receive a pushback 

'Relax,' Necuthual said before filling the pull direction .'It better be the man I've been praying for,' necathual said, entering a wall to find the source of the pull

*dink*

necathual face plants into a barrier, it lights up green on impact 

'Shit is this a soul barrier' necathual silently panicked. 'Whatever is behind here must be important. These are almost the cost of a continent. However, such weak barriers still can't keep me out. I can't cause an alarm; focusing, she began to shift the barrier; at least the part she was touching transformed from a soul barrier to a mana barrier 

'Just small enough for me to enter and exit without detection,' necathual said, slipping inside the room. It was dark, but she felt something warm 

'I've never felt the temperature in soul form, what the hell?' searching around for the source, necathual search was cut short as the lights flicked on 

'Crap, have I been caught' Necutual dashed into the nearest corner 

"Hell, Cleo, I've never taken you as the kidnapping type." A man said, entering the room; he wore high-absorbing armor and carried a large saber on his hip; his beard was ruff and uncut

'And shoes from a war zone,' necathual thought to herself, looking at the man 

'Ahh, Nicholas' 

'Nicholas, this is the boy of the hour.'

'Damn, he's almost as strong as my mom. While lacking the talent, he truly is a hard worker.' 

"You guys called me up here to see a boy. Shoot, I got a boy back home. SHIT, he's here now," Nicholas said, approaching the blanket.

Necuthual looked at the blanket; she could tell that's where the pull was coming from and where the warm feeling was coming from before.

"Well, come on out," Nicholas said before snatching the blanket off, revealing a young blonde boy and picking him up by the arm.

"Name" 

"Don't know," Cleo

Nicholas slowly turned halfway towards Cleo 

"Age," he said in a deeper tone

Letting a little smack of her teeth, Cleo again responded

"Don't know"

"Well," Nicholas said, letting the boy go 

"We found him on Octavio's 9. You'll learn more at the meeting, but he's talented. I've never seen an extraordinary 8/10/1.0; we need you to train him." 

"Tsk, I'm busy killing twinkles in the southern sector, and my BROTHER just lost an arm. Do I look like I have time for kids, especially ones too scared to speak?" Nicholas said before pushing the young man to the wall.

"This briefing better be good now; I've got a game to watch and 10 cans of beer to drink, "Nicholas said swiftly before leaving.

A young woman entered in his place. 

"You need to start talking, please; we can't help you otherwise, " Cleo said with a huge grin before adding, "or else we will have to be forceful," she said before leaving the room and shutting the lights off.

The boy began to cry, but before necathual could reach out, the soul realm pushed her out of her body and back out the mana hole she made.
