Chapter 19

Strafe

What happened in Crotona shocked the world. Strangely the Senti withdrew all of their forces from each territory they invaded after what happened in Crotona. Global domination seemed less and less likely to be motivation anymore, but rather, prophecy chasing.

War had always been a part of history, but this was different. Why couldn't we just stop this violence? Was the heart of man so easily blinded by an idea?

It'd been quite some time since I saw my friends. Over the next few months, every able bodied country joined up to fight against the Senti and their allies. Ghennon had told me three days after we left Crotona, it'd fallen to the Slates. Apparently they were using them as foot soldiers, taking over countries through sheer numbers.

Immediately after Crotona we returned to Soria on a great SkyShip, the Distant Ventium. They brought Brutus and I back to Dhenfen'Ce. The city was still in deep ruin. Buildings were still blackened from the smoke and fire, roads remained in pieces and that once blue and yellow gleam from the city dulled to a dark green. I overheard another soldier say that workers from all over the country had come to help rebuild the capital.

It was good to have Brutus back with me, I'd missed hugging and petting him. As I leaned against Brutus' chest, I asked Ghennon, “What happened to President Kennington?”

Everyone bowed their head and closed their eyes. As I looked around, I could see the despair on the soldiers faces. As I bowed my head down, I asked, “When did he die?”

“He didn't make it out of Crotona,” Ghennon replied softly.

It should've been me to fall that night. Brutus licked my face, which made me smile. I looked out the window to see the Mag-Track had been completely rebuilt and things would be back to normal soon. I saw Ghennon had a Blackcloud next to him. Blackclouds were like Brutus except all black. The Blackcloud had many scars over its face. “Is that your wolf?” I inquired.

“Partuna? She's the mightiest Blackcloud in Soria! Certified Guard-Wolf in the Aero Force. I've had her since she was just a pup,” Ghennon gleamed, “She took Brutus under her wing when we found him.”

I looked toward Brutus and he nodded his head, “She is something else,” he told me.

Getting back to the topic at hand, Ghennon stated, “Vice-President Lincovelt was instated today. She has requested to talk to you Strafe. Miraculously, the Residence is still standing and unscathed!”

We touched down on a landing pad near the Residence. It felt so much like the White House back home in America. Lacquered in Soria's colors, the Residence was the house that the Sorian President lived in. It was the pride of the country and its majesty was unrivaled all over Eternia. The front door was open with a long blue rug rolled out with a podium standing in front. The soldiers motioned for me to enter. A sense of tradition and deference flooded over the Residence.
