They as well as Maria Hikings who discovered Lance and Shedla being the Soul Warrior learn more about Tengoku World as well as the Schools Secrets from Xeon, Kate, and Vannesa. However, Danny then arrives leading to Vannesa's anger build to high levels that she would want to kill her. but why? find out now on Soul Warrior X



In the Hallway Danny was running until she ran into the Arts class with a worried look she looked around

Danny: Great Dead end

Vanessa: Nowhere to go hu [Danny quickly turned around and saw Vanessa who looked like her eyes were back to normal but she still had a crossed look saying]  Good now I can end you [as she then put her metal arm up and fired gigantic orange Energy blast witch while doing a backflip Danny dodged one, then ducked another as Danny while landing on her feet she then heard Vanessa say] Looks like Mother kept you up with your training sister

Danny had an unsettling crossed look on her face: Vanessa, how are you alive…..I thought the Dalcoshion  Killed you

Vanessa looked at her sister: So it looks like you did remember that fight huh [she then fired another energy blast from her right arm] Do you remember when you abandoned me and ran away?

Danny looked sad: I didn’t mean to Vanessa I swear it

as she then ducked again

Vanessa crossed: Really put a sock in it, You say you never meant to yet you're here to kill the Soul Warrior for Mother hu?

Danny looked confused: Kill no I’m not here to Kill Lance and Shelda?

Vanessa with a furious: Your Lying you backstabbing snake

Danny looked crossed: I’m not Lying Vanessa but if you don’t stop this [as she then reached for her sunglasses and said] I’ll have to use my secret weapon

Vanessa looking confident: really well then I say bring it, Little sis

Danny then looked at Vanessa with a crossed frown on her face Danny then reached for her glasses however something caught their attention

The Taskmaster: Hm looks like you two have some issues. I Might help you with that

this surprised the two sisters as they took a few seconds to wonder who the voice belonged to until out of nowhere lighting stroke them, Blue lighting in fact shocked both the Sisters as both of them knocking them out it was at that moment that everybody else from the Rogers and Lovehearts room appeared in light with them all looking at the falling sisters with coaches in their eyes

Kate surprised: They're Knocked out?

Shelda with a surprised look: Yeah but, H…….

suddenly out of nowhere Polly saw something and made a sand shield from Thin air which blocked the electricity that was coming for the Group until it went out as the electricity stopped the wall went down

Mome confusion: Electricity?

Xeon: and a powerful one at that if it would have hit us, it would shock us

G joked: Yeah that would've been a shock problem

Maria looked at Shelda: Say I can’t you know hear Lance so can you tell me if G does this all the time Shelda

Shelda had a small smile: Pretty much both him and Jester are like that, but I wonder where that Lighting came from

Taskmaster: Came from Hmph you're mistaken

as the group heard a voice in the air

Jester worried: Um I'm not the only one hearing this right

Taskmaster: Trust me Little Loveheart I have data on you as well [as everyone  the group looked around no matter how hard they looked they could not find where the voice was coming from as the Voice continued] Because I Have been watching you like the Electricity around you

suddenly while he two was searching the area

Lance noticed a spark of Electricity over at the corner: Hey Look I found something

everyone but Maria turned the corner but seeing as everyone was doing it Maria turned to the same corner as the electricity started to form into a human shape more and more

Taskmaster: Prepare to meet your Judge, Jury, and Execution at the hands of me [as the figure formed a familiar form as the figure stated] The Taskmaster [the Taskmaster stood there with a cold look standing against the eight in front of him as the group all looked at the Taskmaster with a curious and worried look even G and Jester were more worried about this guy because they don’t know why but this Taskmaster feels different from the others the Taskmaster looked at Shelda with a grin] So we finally meet face to face Soul Warrior Half[ Shelda looked confused as the Taskmaster said crossing his arms ] Since the battles of Zhon Gear, Your Training with That old fool Master X Bemastra and of course the Anti Warrior I've watched you and the other half very, very closely

Maria hearing this: Bemastra does he mean Mr. Bemastera the Janitor?

Kate told her with an embarrassed smile: Um it's a long story

Shelda then asked The Taskmaster: You've been watching me and Lance closely then are you a Tengokuen?

The Taskmaster then had a grin: Tengokuen hmm maybe I am or maybe I’m not, that does not change the fact you are a thorn in my side and must be eradicated

as he then put his hands out and lighting shot out of it  the group saw it and all of them dodged except for Xeon who teleported as The Taskmaster smirked and said] Just as I thought, I knew you would do that

as he then disappeared into Lighting again the group all looked around

Jester: Great I hate it when the bad guy plays hide and seek

Xeon surprised: that can’t be right, I can’t get a hold of the Taskmasters soul energy

the other’s looked surprised at this

Maria: So wait this Soul Energy thing, is it like a locator, but then how are we going to know when this guy attacks

Kate then looking confident: I've got an idea” as suddenly she jumped high and kicked the Taskmaster as he suddenly appears standing back as to the shock of everyone there

Lance asked: Ok how did you know he was there?

Kate looked back with a confident smile: simple I couldn't sense him but I could hear his breath

the Taskmaster then felt his jaw: Hm, not bad for a Soul Puppet [Kate looked surprised with the others looking stunned as The Taskmaster asked] Oh I see you haven't told them you're a Soul Puppet yet hu “ as he then tried to go for a right fist but a serious Kate grabbed it with an annoyed look

Kate:  No I haven't, but that's not too important to know, not for the moment but something I can tell is that you're not good of a fighter if this is all you can do [The Taskmaster however smirked to Kate’s confusion but then in that blink of a second The Taskmaster turned back into Electricity and shocked her as Kate was shouting ] Gah

Shelda,G,Jester,Mome,Xeon and Maria : Kate

Kate fell to the ground but was barely awake the others ran up

Xeon checking up on her: Kate are you alright?

Kate who was in pain had a conscious look: This energy, it's not Tengokuen

the group then looked at her as

Mome: wait it's not?

Kate shook her head: No if it was we would be on the same level because of my gift, this feels like something else I never sensed before

the group all looked worried by what Kate said as Kate tried to move

Maria looked at her with a worried tone: Hey don’t stress yourself out Kate

while saying that the others looked to try to find the Taskmaster

G worried: where do you think he went off to?

Xeon answers looking curious: Don’t know, I still can’t lock onto his Soul Energy

Shelda looked worried: Jester, Mome I think you two need to stay close there's no telling where this guy's going to strike next

Jester and Mome nodded Shelda then heard a voice in her head say

Lance: Shelda you may want to switch

Shelda however shook her head: No  Lance we can't just yet

Lance had a puzzled voice: what?

Shelda serious and worried: You may still be sick, besides you faced the Anti Warrior last time so It's my turn now even though...

Lance: what but you're not ready Shelda you'll be killed and in turn so well me

Shelda:  Yeah and I admit it this scares me but if you're sick you will be a bigger target at least I might stand a chance [It was at that moment when water suddenly fell from the top of the roof and fell down on everyone's heads as Shelda touched her head as she suddenly felt it on her hand] Water?

as she looked up so did the others

Jester confused: wow where the heck did this water come from?

Mome looked up and said worriedly: It's the sprinkler  someone turned them on

as she then ducked so the water would not get in her eyes

Maria who was still strangely dried looked worried and said looking up: Oh no, guys water conducts Electricity

the others looked worried at this news

Shelda: That's right but Maria how come you're not wet?

Maria looked up: Not sure the Sprinklers on top of me aren't working but that doesn't matter you have to get dried now before

Taskmaster: Got ya

suddenly before they knew it the electricity hit Loverheart’s, G, and Polly with Kate on the ground zapping them they all screamed in pain as a horrified Maria watches as every one of them passed out through the Pain as the Electricity then reformed back into the Taskmaster

The Taskmaster crossing his arms: Hm that was way too easy and how ironic “ [as he was now standing just a few feet from Shelda who he looked at her knocked out face] What Zhon and The Anti Warrior tried to do, I am now nighty percent about to and that is to kill this little annoyance

Taskmaster then put his hand out in a cold way: Time to shock them  to death

Maria: Not when I’m around

suddenly  the Taskmaster heard Maria who then drop kicked him from behind as The Taskmaster tried to rebound Maria came jumping from the air and tried to hit the Taskmaster with many punches and kicks but the Taskmaster just blocked  them all to Maria’s confusion she thought to herself

Maria: This is odd, when he fought Kate as soon as she got close to him he turned into Lighting and shocked her, [Maria found an opening and then delivered a hard kick to the Taskmasters stomach which the force of the kick sent the Taskmaster through  wall creating smoke Maria thought to herself] don’t know why he's holding back but I've got to take advantage of it “

she then turned to the others who are knocked out

The Taskmaster: Hm, of course, how could I Forget about you Princess Hikings [Maria then turned back to where the Taskmaster walked out as he  explained]interesting how you're helping the Soul Warrior when you are not even a part of the Soul Warriors prophecy nor do you have ties with Tengoku world

Maria looked at him with a battle stance: You're right about that, I may have just found out about it but I promised myself if my father sees everyone else here as his children then I have….no, I want to see them as my brothers and sisters

Taskmaster: Even though you're jealous of how your daddykins treats the Orphans [Maria looked surprised that the Taskmaster said that ] here paying more attention to the others rather than his own daughter so sad

Maria took a step back when she heard that and said sweating a little: No way, not true, and even if it was I still care about them as if they are my family

The Taskmaster smirked as he then got into a fighting position: Family huh, well then I guess it’s time to take you away from this one

Maria looked uncomfortable as she went into a fighting position but then something caught both of their attention

Star: WAAA!

this surprised both Maria and the Taskmaster

Taskmaster asked, curious: what was that?

Maria had her eyes opened and realized: Oh no [she then turned around and saw to her horror Star was behind everyone who was knocked and was crying because Sophina wasn't there Maria realized] Star must have somehow sneaked in when Xeon Teleported everyone here man she's quick

The Taskmaster however looked at Star and looked up realizing thinking: Interesting, this young one seems to have been here as much as the others, yet was not affected by the Lighting I wonder why? [The then reached for the side of his glasses as Maria looked back when the Taskmaster then said through the sunglasses] Director we got a problem

The Director at the other end: is it that you are losing your pea brain numskull, I knew through my great intellect that this was two soon to attack

The Taskmaster then in a calm way: Atchley I was doing well I even knocked the Girl half of the Soul Warrior out

The Director: You knocked the Soul Warrior out stupendous finish them off now before they wake up

Taskmaster: Two problems first Maria Hikings is still there

The Director: Darn that. We can’t lay a hand on that young woman yet so knock her out and kill the rest

Maria was looking at this talk and thought: why's he not paying that much attention to me how rude

Taskmaster had an interesting stare and said: No, besides I have something more interesting for you two know as my second problem is that there is a three year old girl here

The Director: what how in the dire idiotic nature would that be a problem?

The Taskmaster then explained looking cold: She has a star mark on her forehead

the Director went quiet after a few seconds then

The Director: A Starmark on her forehead you say Intriguing are you sure about that?

Taskmaster looking with a small smirk: Ha, I’m as sure about this as I’ll ever be with anything else

The Director was excited: Then what are you waiting for, that Girl must be an Eternal think of the intriguing fun it will be to experiment with her powers so get that girl no matter what go you pea brain idi…..

The Taskmaster however just pressed the side of his glasses and sighed: That Director always annoys me to no end [ as he then walked over to a still crying Star while saying] Better do as he says however

Maria looking at this said annoyed:  Hey your fights with me don’t even lay a finger on Star

Taskmaster however just sighed in boredom as he then left one finger with that a small stream of electricity burst out to Maria’s confusion the electricity fell to the ground and started to split at the different ends of a Square around

Maria looked worried and confused: what’s this? [however, the four ends then sprouted out up ways creating a box made out of electricity around her Maria realized after it was formed ] Oh no I’m trapped

as she then tried to touch the wall

Taskmaster: I wouldn't do that if I were you  [Maria looked over and saw the Taskmaster turning his head to her explaining ] That Cage is made out of 50 volts, even the slightest touch we'll kill you and I have the feeling you won't want to die tonight

Taskmaster then started to walk towards Star as a Helpless Maria watched the poor little girl looked up as the Taskmaster was starting to walk over

G Crossly: You stay away from her you little Eel

The Taskmaster then stopped as he turned around  and saw with a slightly confused tone: Ha so you're up that's surprising “

Maria: G?

Maria said confused from inside of her box to her it was confusing how G got up that fast while the others did not however G did look like he took some damage as he was breathing heavily it was some kind of miracle he was still standing

G crossed: Hm, hu, hu, hu you think you're so tough huh [ The Taskmaster looked at him interested as G continued] thinking that you can just electrify everything and then just try to take off while taking Star away let me guess you only did that trick just because you were scared of Bro and Shelda taking you down GAA [G then shouted madly] well one problem, I’m still standing and there no way you will take Star or kill Bro and Shelda while I’m around you got that Lightning Bug

Maria in her box looking worried: G what are you doing you not a fight….

G: Maria stays out of this!

Maria heard the Boy shout crossly as she also saw that G had a more angry look on his face clearly to Maria G was not acting as the same joking boy as before the Taskmaster looked a little interested he remembered seeing this look on G’s face before however he hides his true feeling and had a small grin on his face before saying

Taskmaster: My, My looks like all you Rogers are alike

G eyes opened wider slightly

The Taskmaster said looking at Star who was still scared of him: Tell me Boy, why do you care about this Star girl and why is it, is it because you see a defenseless little child who has no home, No that's not it is it? [ he then walked over to G now who looked up crossed as The Taskmaster explained] It's because you are a lot like your Brother, you both act tough when you are really weak, but unlike him, you're not a fighter yet who knows maybe if you were maybe you would have kept your little sister Clare around] G and Maria both gasped

Maria thought confused: Sister, Lance, and G have a Sister?

G looked crossed: How do you know about Clare !?

The Taskmaster crossed his arms with a small smirk saying: Hm still haven't figured it out, Ok then little Roger I’ll enlighten you, I am the Taskmaster of the Gateway Movement

with that Maria had never heard of the Gateway Movement thought in a confused tone

Maria: Gateway......... Movement. There must be some parts of the conversation I missed  [as she then turned to The Taskmaster] But with creeps like this guy they must not be a good group

G looked annoyed crouching down with his hands in fist: So you're the one who took her away

The Taskmaster:  No, I was not in the group, there were many people we abduct in many groups so no I do not know where she is all I know is you and Lance we'll never get her back you want to know why? [as he then looked at him and said coldly]  Because your weak

G: SHUT UP! [G shouted as he then uppercut the Taskmaster to the roof and then jumped up after him to deliver furious punches like a rocket to a shocked Taskmaster and Maria as G said looking crossed]  Do you even have the slightest idea of what this darn Gateway Movement put me and Bro through you Lightning Bug. You've made both mine and his life miserable for taking Clare away

as they burst through the roof of to the outside Taskmaster while looking as if he was damaged had a smile as even his sunglasses was broken from the right end as he said looking down at G in the air

Taskmaster: both your life's, funny I don’t see how you were affected after all you are just a sad little boy who makes stupid jokes or do you do this just to cheer yourself up knowing you and Lance we'll never see your precious little sister ever again

G suddenly glowed purple and looked like his pupils were completely gone: YOUR WRONG! [as he then went up even higher than the Taskmaster yet again and then jumped down on the Taskmaster sending them back down like a comet while also delivering painful punches the Taskmaster fell down while G cried out] before Clare abduction Bro was a kind brother, he cared about me and Clare a lot. He always helped me feel better when I was down and so did Clare, But then you guys had to stick your noses in, when you Gateway Movement thugs took Clare away Bro changed, he wasn't like he was before he was cold, always sad and angry, that's why I Joke, I want to see him have the same smile he had when I was younger, even when I cry myself at nights wanting to know if Clares Ok. I know I always have to think positively because I know the three of us will be together again![ as he then kicked the Taskmaster down and then put his hand out] and it’ll start when I Beat the snot out of you ahh

as he then fired several purple and Green Soul Blast on over and over again

the Taskmaster however thought to himself: This Younger Roger, he's more powerful than I thought

as after that the Taskmaster then fell with a crashing on the group with bits of the Roof falling on him covering him in rock

Maria looked absolutely stunned. She could not believe what she saw: did, did G just do that?

however as she heard a yell as G then jumped down putting his hand down Maria could tell that there was something different about G he looked more purple aura  and angry, G was taking a few deep breaths, suddenly cooling down and getting calmer

G then looked surprised as he looked at his hand thinking: Did….did I do that?

he looked at the pile of rocks that was where The Taskmaster was he couldn't believe he did that suddenly he then was still breathing until he heard something

Star: hahahahaha ha ha ha hahaha

G heard from behind him Star was clapping and giggling happily seeing G do all that G looked back and had a sympathetic smile

Maria: G that was amazing [G heard confused as Maria ran over with the box went down after the Taskmaster was taken down] But how did you do that?

G admitted serious this time: I don’t know, this is so weird I thought Bro and Shelda would have this kind of power for being the Soul Warrior and all but not like the first time this has happened ever

Maria looked curious: First time wait did you do this against Zhon Gear?

G nodded:  Yeah and then I passed out after it but this is strange I wonder why I’m…….

Taskmaster: Dalcoshion !

both G and Maria both heard the Taskmasters voice say from the rubble yellow lighting appeared out of it and formed into the Taskmaster who looked back to one hundred Percent

Maria surprised: Your back to one hundred percent

Star who coward behind Maria and G

G explained: Oh come on I just beat you up how is it you look so well?

the Taskmaster then touched his wrist: Lightning my boy that's why [as he turned his hands into lighting and explained]  I can change my shape to anyway I want and whatever health I want in other words you can’t hurt me  [this scared G as he took a step back as The Taskmaster walked forward with a grin saying] But I can hurt you even with that Dalcoshion Blood in your vain’s boy

G curious: Dalwhatcheians?

Maria looked confused: He said Dalcoshion but I don’t know what they are ever

Taskmaster: Oh but I do [both Maria and G looked at him with a worried look as the Taskmaster however said coldly] But that doesn't mean I will tell you

G looked anxious: Why not? [ as the Taskmaster then lifted one of his fingers and aimed it at G who was backing off reminding himself and everyone else ] Right forgot, you're a bad guy

Taskmaster with a cold responded: just because I’m on the opposite side, whatever the real reason is I can't tell you is because you're about to be ……[he then fired an electric bolt attack at G shouting] Obsolete!

The blast looked to be so fast that  G could not dodge it; the ten year old boy just held his arms close in fear until …..

Shelda: G!

suddenly Shelda got back up and jumped in the way and got electrocuted in his place to all three of their surprised looks

G and Maria: Shelda!

Shelda then fell to her knees in pain while saying: Ow that stings

The Taskmaster looked surprised at this and thought:  How is she still awake? That attack I did should've knocked her down? [the then took another look at her and thought ] was she, no that can’t be it

Maria looked at Shelda: Shelda are you ok?

Shelda smiled back at Maria and got up: No worries I’m fine we were just playing possum

G: Possum?

Lance then told G: that was her plan to try to stay down until we found some kind of weakness in this darn Gateway Movement scum grr

Lance held his hands into a fist to this Taskmaster was one of those idiots who took his sister Clare away he was getting crossed he wanted to get his hands on this darn Taskmaster so much he could

Shelda: Lance you can’t not yet at least

Lance looked annoyed by this: what you can’t believe that I can hold myself down knowing this Eel is one of the reasons Clare was taken

Shelda looked slightly crossed at the way Lance was talking and reminded him: I know Lance, but let's look at the facts he can keep on healing thanks to that electricity meaning Taskmaster’s got the edge if you did fight beside's I don’t know if you're still sick after the hole Peanut thing

Lance looked crossed at this

G admitted looking serious: she’s right Bro after whatever I did to him he still is standing I’m not even sure you can even beat him right now

Lance looked serious: Ok you've got a point, so what are you saying we can’t win?

Shelda to Lance with a nervous look saying: maybe not today, we should retreat?

Lance however  in a calm way: That won’t work either, if we do run that Lightning bulb well just follow us until he finally kills us

Shelda looked sad thinking: Good point so running isn't an option ever so what do we do?

Maria then pointed to The Taskmaster: Um sorry if I’m interrupting something but anyone notice the Taskmaster just standing there, not attacking or even looking at us?

G then explained: ah I think he's just following Bad guy rule number twenty two

Maria looked at him with confusion: what?

G explained pointing to the Taskmaster: bad guy thinks he’s going to win and he just decides to monologue instead of just finishing the Good guys off

Maria looked curious and thought: But he's not talking and why does that worry me?

unknown to the four of them The Taskmaster was thinking about the recent events: Impossible, they were playing possum, but how the Volt was at 20, no one could have stayed up for that long [ he then turned to G and continued to think ] and this boy, he could be a lot stronger than even Desmond and Mai yet he does not yet realize it [ he then had his hands glow in a yellow Lightning glow as he looked at the group while saying]  Time to stop toying around

as he looked ready to attack

Shelda however looked worried seeing it and thought: Oh no ! [she quickly ran up in super like speed and grabbed the Taskmasters hands just when he was about to fire the Lightning from his hands to even the Taskmasters surprise as she held it tight but got constantly shocked by it ] Ahh [she yelled in pain ]

G and Maria both shouted worriedly: SHELDA!

as both of them were trying to move to help her

Shelda however shouted back :D…..Don’t, come any closer

to both students confusion about what Shelda said

Maria looked confused: W….What?

Shelda looked back at the two of them: You two need to….to get Jester, Mome, and everyone else away from here. I’ll hold him off

G confused: But...But if you don’t get out of there then you and Bro well

Shelda: we’ll be fine G, just make sure my brother and sister get out of here [G Looked confused and concerned while Shelda continued]  That's your job G I need you to do that for me?

G however nodded as he and Maria started to run towards the five knocked out people

the Taskmaster had a small  chuckle: Hm seems like a Noble Sacrifice for a Noble Hero, but truly I’m amazed you managed to hold on for this long with all that Voltage going through you

Shelda looked at him with a serious look: it hurts a lot less than you think

Taskmaster looked at her with a confused look until he realized she only looked like she was only a little bit in pain as if it was a little shock

Taskmaster looked curious wondering why it was not affecting her a lot thinking: wait how could this be?

at the same time Lance who was also feeling the same shocks from the attack also felt that this was not affecting him more  in the slightest why was this he was wondering however Shelda then fell down to one knee as the other two looked at Shelda with concern

G and Maria: Shelda

The Taskmaster then had a smirk seeing he was winning Shelda did look a little in pain yet she was not letting go of the Taskmasters hands

The Taskmaster started to taunt: Well it looks like I’m doing a lot more damage to you after all

Shelda looked up and had a crossed look while saying: Your wrong ….ah…..it’s true this stings but I don’t care [The Taskmaster looked at her with a confused tone as Shelda looked determined] I Promised both Lance and G that I well reunite them with Clare, and I know you will go after G if you get freed so to keep that promise I’ll keep a hold on you

Lance looked surprised at her so when she said she wanted to help him she meant it

the Taskmaster on the other hand coldy: Ha, what an Idiot you are do you remember when you die so well Lance so that won't help your promise

Shelda looked serious: Yes it well, Because I don’t plan on dying today

Timaeus: And we shall help you with that Lass

both of them looked confused until to both of their surprise and shock The Taskmaster was getting lifted by something which caused Shelda to finally let go as she looked up at who was now holding the Taskmaster by his back with his right arm  and said in a shocked

Shelda: T…...Timaeus?

as it was indeed Timaeus who chuckled

G saying surprised: wow It's Timaeus

Timaeus still holding: Yes it is indeed I but again you forgot to say my name properly I am the Powerful Timaeus,[ he then had a smile] But that we'll have to wait, you have done well Soul Warrior half Shelda let us take it from here

Shelda continued to look up realizing that Timaeus also knows who they are

Taskmaster was struggling while thinking: Timaeus, him of all people?

as he then quickly turned into electricity and took a step back

Timaeus chuckling: hm a slippery one you are?

The Taskmaster looked annoyed by this. How did you get in here?

Timaeus however just shook his head: That is not my place to say just know I have not come alone

The Taskmaster looked curious: What ….

Figla: He means me Lightning Bolt “ as the Taskmaster then turned around and got punched in the face by a familiar woman to

Maria and Shelda: FIGLA ?

G: Whitey!?

everyone but Timaeus as it was indeed

Figla who crossed her arms: Seriously, this guy is a threat to the Soul Warrior don’t make me laugh

Timaeus confused: But you're not laughing lass

Figla also added: Its an expression Timaeus [she then looked as if her eyes rolled to the back of her head in annoyance] And before you ask no, I am not calling you the Great Timaeus because the Great Timaeus needs to learn to take a joke

Timaeus looked down in disappointment however that was cut off by something

Taskmaster: a Joke huh well it looks like you Figla can’t take a Jolt!

as suddenly Figla was hit with a bright yellow light as the others who were not Timaeus

Shelda, Maria and G worried: Figla!

as The Taskmaster stood with a cold smirk: Ha I Got her

Timaeus: I wouldn't be so sure of that my Eel adversary

The Taskmaster turned to see Timaeus who had a chuckle as the Lightning was cleared to the Taskmasters and everyone else's surprise

Figla was standing there with no damage to her as she brushed her hair away: Was that the best you had?

Taskmaster could not believe this and again looked stunned

G looked confused and asked curiously: Wait I'm confused how come miss red eyes didn’t get zap

Maria admitted just as confused

Shelda looked up at her and  G: You're asking me?

Figla then correct them: OH looks like you don’t know Lightning like that  can’t hurt a Vampire like me

Lance, Shelda, G, and Maria in Unison: VAMPIRE!

Figla just tutted at the rest of the students

The Taskmaster however looked as if he understood: Yes I should've Known you're a Tengokuen Vampire the red eyes should be the giveaway [ however he then looked curious and asked ]Though that does still leave the question how did you and Timaeus show up here Girl?

Xeon: It is because of us invader

a new familiar voice was heard as everyone then saw as they turn to the corner as suddenly Xeon was standing there with his arms crossed with Master X Bemastra standing beside his student in his old man form

G happily: Hey it's Gramps

Maria looked confused: Gramps, don’t you mean MR Bemastra?

Shelda however explained: Oh yeah you don’t know, don’t you Maria?

Maria looked at Shelda wondering: Know what?

Shelda smiled and explained: MR Bemastra is a powerful Master of Tengoku who came here to teach me and Lance how to be the Soul Warrior

Maria’s eyes went wide in shock: wait the what now

Lance looked crossed: Hey that's my thing that's it while I’m back in control I’ll.....

Shelda then chuckled embarrassedly before realizing something: Wait Xeons with Master X but wasn't he with us when Taskmaster shocked us

Xeon hearing that explained with a serious look: That's right I was but in the split second before he did I Teleported away to gather help from allies

The Taskmaster looked at this with a crossed look on his face until he looked at Bemastra himself and looked worried thinking

Taskmaster: Bemastra, this is not good not even I am on his level

Bemastra looked at the Taskmaster: Hm so you're the one who is a part of this Gateway movement the same group that has been opening those holes to Tengoku even wider so tell me you stupid young fool what is it you seek in Tengoku?

Taskmaster however crossed his arms with a smirk:  Hm you're in no position for demanding anything old man

the way he said that made everyone question, The Taskmaster was surrounded with nowhere to go

Figla admitted looking clueless:  did I punch you two hard you're surrounded Lightning Bug there's nowhere to run “

Taskmaster shook his head calmly: There's always a way out, but before I go I might as well be a nice guy and warn you phe then looked serious as sparks appeared all around him like a thunderous blue Aura] Shelda, Lance, and all of your other friends Stay away from the Gateway movement if you know what's good for you [he then smirked and said] Because I’ll let you in on a little secret, I underestimated you next time if you dare try to get in our business the one thing that you well Indore is perfect suffering [ the group were thinking that The Taskmaster was bluffing, however, some of the wiser members noticed while he was talking The Taskmaster was covered in Blue Lighting while The Taskmaster simple] Heed this warning for there well not be another

as then in blue light, the Taskmaster disappeared to everyone’s shock

Timaeus looked stunned: By what Magic was that?

Figla added as a Confused Timaeus looked at her crossing her arms: The Cybernetic kind, looks like the slippery eel ally's Teleported him away got to say I may just have heard of this Gateway Movement but I hate them already

G: Wait what [the group then walked over as Figla heard G say that he continued] How come you didn’t know about the Gateway Movement Vampire Lady didn’t Xeon tell you?

Figla just sighed: Pff looks like you still haven't told them Yet hu Xeon

The three who were still conscious looked clueless

Xeon finally explained: How could I Figla I only learned you were from Tengoku just now when I was looking for allies to help me

Shelda looked confused: So wait you didn’t know but don’t you know where you go when you teleported to Xeon?

Xeon nodding: Normally yes but remember I was in a hurry so I wouldn't be Zapped when I meet both Timaeus and Figla talking with Master X  Bemastera then they explained that those two are from Tengoku

G looked confused: So  it was a coincidence that you bumped into the Vampire Lady and Big Guy

all the while this was going on the Star Mark on Star’s forehead that glowed in a yellow light slowly went down

Timaeus added: Yes it looks to indeed be a coincidence

however, Master X was stroking his beard saying: indeed however the Taskmaster still got away so it will look as if we must find the secrets of this Gateway Movement, it will have to be for a later date

Maria: Hey speaking of Secrets [Master X Bemastra turned to Maria who said surprised and annoyed with her hands on her hips] Why didn’t you tell me MR Bemastra that your a Master from Tengoku [Master X Bemastra then chuckled while Maria said] I’m Serious

Master X: As have I Young Hikings [Maria looked at Bemastra with confusion as the latter explained] the Reason I did not tell you was to keep you safe however I Should've known you would eventually find out the truth one of these Days you are a smart girl

Maria’s eyes went wide and admitted: Wow, Thanks

Shelda looked curious with Lance looking at her: Wait so is this finally over for the Night Master X?

Master X looked while stroking his beard saying: It does, like I said if that shock master knows what is best for him he would not show up in the near future it would be a foolish decision indeed

Shelda then started to wobble: Then I’m going to hit to hay

with that Shelda then fainted and fell down

G shouting: Ah Shelda, hay you and Bro aren't ….

Lance: Relax G She’s just exhausted after the shock so don’t cry over it

[G heard Lance's voice say] Oh Okie Dokie wait how come you're still awake when she's passed out

Lance: Simple we only feel each other's pain however we don’t fall to sleep at the same time unless we're in bed but yeah that electricity still stings

Maria crossed her arms and said looking at the unconscious Shelda: well I don’t expect her to stay awake after all she did go through today

Timaeus nodded and looked at the other knocked students: Ay it smells as if there was a great battle indeed with everyone here suffering some of the effects

Xeon explained crossing his arms: It seems that way, so I think we should return to Red Houndon I can Teleport everyone there

Figla looking bored: Pff that sounds good it well kills the boredom after all

Master X again stroking his beard: Yes that is true however I Would a word with Timaeus if that is alright with you

as he turned to a confused Timaeus

Timaeus: Sure

while the rest of the group looked at this they all however understood as they then all gathered

Maria picking Star up: Come on Star time to go back to Red Houndon to Sophina

Star looked confused at first but then had a happy giggle however as Figla walked over next to the knocked out Danny and Vanessa G then tried to hide behind Maria in fear

Figla looking annoyed: Hey what's your problem boy?

G admitted terrified yet in a joking way: Sorry got a fear of you know getting bitten in the neck by a Vampire

Figla put her hand on her head: Are you for real?

It was at that moment when Xeon teleported away with everyone but Timaeus and Master X

Master X crossed his arms putting his hand on his chin while worried: Hm it is good that no one lost their lives however I can’t shake the feeling soon.........

Timaeus looked at him and questioned: Is this what you wanted a word with me Master Bemastra?

Master X Nodded in a sad way: I am afraid, he is coming here Timaeus

Timaeus Looked clueless at first: Who is Master, is it that Beast Vorvalli?

Master X then started to sweat a little: no someone who is much worse, someone who has been sealed in the great Sun of Tengoku who has broken out and is looking for a worthy foe to kill

Timaeus eyes went wide in fear while saying taking a few steps back: No, Not him any warrior but he

Master X  sounding worried: you can’t lie to yourself, after fifty billion years he has come to try to kill Lance and Shelda, you can feel his soul energy even from far away the Inferno Sin Warrior

Timaeus then barely looking down worried: Sun Bu

he thought to himself he had lived along life but one being, the one named Sun Bu was by far the strongest and besides the great evil sickest he had both fought he then hoped  that not only Shelda and Lance but everyone needs to be ready if they are not Sun Bu well be the end to all of them

Back at Red Houndon

Shelda: Ahh!

Shelda shouted as she woke up she looked around and realized she was sleeping on the couch in the middle of the night somebody must have put her on thereafter she was tired out with the fight with The Taskmaster she however then heard someone say in a quiet whisper

Sophina: Great you're alright Shelda

Shelda turned around and saw it was Sophina who said that with a sleeping Star on her lap

Shelda then looked confused: Sophina? [Sophina then freaked out a little and then made a shoosh noise while pointing to Star who was still sleeping as Shelda then apologized while whispering] Sorry about that, but how long was I out for?

Sophina again whispered pointing to the clock on the wall: about two hours Xeon brought you and everyone with Star back here just when the rest from all the other houses were leaving

Shelda looked confused: Did Xeon tell everyone what happened?

Sophina however shook her head: No, Xeon kept quiet about it so did G which is strange he never shuts up so can you tell me what happened to you?

Shelda then looked sad: Ah sorry Sophina I Can’t remember

Lance: Wait a sec but you can …….

Shelda thinking: Secret Lance remember

Lance: Oh wait darn it fine you're right

Sophina then looked down a bit annoyed: Darn it, so you're telling me that I stayed up with this noisy Monkey and you can’t remember? [However, in the next split second she just sighed] Oh well I guess it can’t be helped I suppose but I guess as long as Star and everybody else here's ok I can live with it

Shelda wonders looking at Sophina: Hey Sophina is it alright if I ask you something?

Sophina back looking confused herself: Sure what is it?

Shelda Pointed to Star: what made you change your mind about taking care of Star?[Sophina looking a little sad as if she was heartbroken as Shelda continued to ask ] Don’t get me wrong I’m happy you did that but I was just ….[however, Shelda stopped as she saw water coming from Sophina's eyes as she started to cry Shelda asked in a worried way] Sophina why are you crying was it something I said?

Sophina however looked at Shelda while wiping her tears with a small smile: No it's ….well the reason it's a long story [ however she then turns to Shelda explaining] But if you want to hear it then I’m ok with telling you

Shelda concerned and confused: You sure?

Sophina interrupted: Yes I've got to tell someone if not then I’ll cry myself to death, after all, I did lose my older sister

Shelda eyes went wide even hearing this even Lance looked surprised

Shelda: Your Older sister?

Sophina had a small smile and explained with a sad look: when I was about five years old, Both my parents died. So being eighteen at the time My older sister Ezebell decided to take care of me as if she was a second mother

Shelda looked on with a small sympathetic smile: Guess she must've been a great big sister

Sophina looked down sadly: She was too bad I was a spoiled little sister to [Shelda looked confused and studded Sophina then continued with tears in her eyes] She did everything for me the Cooking, Cleaning, Washing and other stuff while I was a Lazy one who did nothing but watch TV, on my computer, go out for parties  and complaining when things don’t get my way I never really understood how much she did for me before she died

Shelda in a sympathetic way: So how did that happen…..

Sophina continued: One day when Ezebell went to the shops, I wanted to come so I secretly went to the shops myself but …..[She then gripped her trousers with her eyes closed giving Shelda the idea that Sophina was serious about this as Sophina again saying] when I got there, a truck crashed into the shop Ezebell was in and killed her along with everybody who was there at the time [this made both Shelda look sympathetic for Sophina but also Lance who was trying to hide this felt a little bad for her as Sophina explained again with tears in her eyes] You know that old saying, You never know what you had before it's gone well that was true, Living by myself was a nightmare, I…... I couldn't do anything for myself and every night I cried…..I cried that I wanted my sister back even though I know in my heart I'll never see her again

Shelda looked like she understood something: So that's why you're clumsy all the time isn't it, You can’t do a lot of things for yourself is because Ezebell did it for you

Sophina just nodded

Shelda looked down sadly: Wow, I’m sorry I asked if it would make you cry like this I Just wanted to know

Sophina then also explained: That's also the reason why I asked for help [She then looked back at the Sleeping Star and explained] when thinking back, I was a wreck, It was two months later when Rehcaet suddenly appeared at the apartment and offered me to stay here

Shelda confused: Two Months, so this whole thing happened this year?

Sophina nodded again: About six months ago yes [she then looked again at Star explaining] But, I know even how clumsily I can be I can’t just let Star go away so I needed everyone’s help, it's what Ezebell would have done

Shelda looked with a small smile: I see [as the smile was getting bigger] Well I think Ezebell would be proud of you

Sophina looked at Shelda: You think so?

Shelda: I Know so, It takes someone big to false up to their faults Sophina, and besides I’m a Big sister to Jester and Mome so I would be proud if Mome or Jester took care of someone knowing they have their own faults [ Shelda then looked embarrassed] and I've got to admit I’m not Miss Perfect myself I’ve got problems so what I’m trying to say is I know how she would think

Sophina then had a smile: thanks Shelda I needed that

Shelda smiled back however she then heard a voice in her head

Lance: Not to break up this Girly chat but there’s something I've been meaning to ask you Shelda

Shelda: What is it, Lance?

Lance: Earlier in the fight with the Taskmaster you managed to absorb a lot of pain, normally pain like that would kill somebody so how is it you took it?

Shelda sadly: Thank Levy for that

Lance then paused before asking: Levy, that Girl who kept torturing you why would you thank her?

Shelda: It’s because when she was hurting me year after year I guess my body got used to the pain, But the pain from the Taskmaster still hurts a lot Lance and there was a chance we could have died but I couldn't let go of his hands, I just can’t

Lance: Why not?

Shelda: Because if I did then he would have gone after G for hurting him earlier. We at least had a chance to survive the voltage thanks to my high pain fresh hold [She turns to Lance with a smile] and I did promise I would reunite you two with Clare didn’t I?

Lance then just gasped as if he was at a loss for words so when Shelda suffered all of that just to help reunite him and G with Clare why was she being so kind

Shelda however then stood up and stretched herself while saying: Well I think I better get to bed, Goodnight Sophina

Sophina simply: Goodnight [as Sophina watched as Shelda went into her bedroom Sophina then heard a cute little Yawn as she saw Star making a quiet snore noise She then had a smile and said to herself] This well be tough but maybe this won’t be as bad as I Thought

However, unknown to Sophina in the door to hers, Skylett's and Mojo’s room was slightly open as a Guilty looking Mojo slowly closed it.

Narrator: as it would seem Shelda has survived the Taskmaster for now. But what are the Gateway Movement's true goals, Find out next time on Soul Warrior X.

Shelda: ah Mome

Lance: Did your brother say that a bigfoot took her?

Shelda: Lance, we have to find her. I can’t lose her …..

Lance: ……...don’t worry we’ll get your sister back I promise.

Shelda: I Hope so

Shelda: Next time on Soul Warrior X “ Kidnapped?, The Monster in the Woods “

Lance: There's a Monster in the woods great so I get to fight something before getting your sister back. It's a win win
