As Xion walked to the mountain he watched as wildlife slowly disappeared. The wild finches and their sounds slowly faded away in the distance. His body aching, he finally got to the mountain. Xion looked around the barren land and saw nothing but ash and rock. Around the mountain were large boulders, each the same distance apart from the next. On top of the mountain a large cavern. A feeling of doom loomed over it.

As he stood at the entrance he heeded tryst words. He took the stone out of his pocket and raised it over his head. The cave lit up. 6 large crystal similar to the one he saw in the temple. Then a huge centaurian like beast with huge lobster claws, scorpion tale, and a huge glaring red eye on its back came rushing At Xion. "Why are you here?" the monstrous creature said.

"Ar-are you germane?" said Xion. "Yes," said germane in a powerful voice. "Why have you come? You came to give me tryst stone? Ahh. Then give it to me." Xion dropped the stone into germane's claw. "How do I do that? Do what? Oh, read your mind? Not sure. Humans are just easy I guess. But the other question I can answer. These crystals are my brethren. When they hatch from there crystal shell the have the power to create living beings. See that one? Germane points to a large shaking purple gem. "That's the one that's going to hatch the soonest. Maybe day's. Or years. Now speak. And stop thinking about that." "Um. can you guys die? I mean crystal borns." "Yes, but only at the hand of each other. But we could be captured for all eternity with this cool stone. Look, it's shiny. Here take it. And just for bringing the other shiny gem, here's one of my shards." "What are shards? And what do the have to do with that crystal from trysts head?" "Us crystal borns create using our shells. I created the anise kind with mine. That crystal came from my first creation. Thought he was an equal. Showed him. Moron. But the less crystal you have, the less power. And why are you here? I mean, why are you still here? Go! Go go! Wait. here." Germane grabbed the sword and stones and quickly fused them together. "Now go!"

While he was walking towards snake valley he unsheathed his sword And gazed at its beauty. Thousands of beautiful sparkles glittered around the diamond. His stomach started to flutter. He's demon hand grew red and suddenly grabbed the sword. He surprised by the reaction. He was even more surprised by the result. His flesh melded into a cone around the metal handle. The flutter in his stomach exploded all through his body. He started screaming until he realized it felt good. Better than he ever felt before.

A scream broke the deafening silence. Xion looked up from the
gleaming sword and saw thousands of the slaughtered of his villagers.
He stood in awe as he saw friends, family, blood, death and torture.
He searched thoroughly through the mounds bodies. Under a large man he
found her. He found Amber, drenched in her and many others. A nasty
wound to her throat suffocated her.

He held back tears as he ran to the castle. He's duties were to
the prince not to amber. He ran as fast as his legs would take him. But
at the when he got their he had more of the same. He ran to the
prince's chambers. There in the chambers were the prince holding a huge
metal sword, yet he swung the sword with great ease. The blue armor
grabbed the prince by the head and slammed it into the ground. The
prince got up, without a scratch. "Satan.." "Humph. Must you always
take the hard way? Fine! Be killed by your creator!" the prince stopped
in his tracks. His eyes and mouth glowed red. Blue fire burst from
within. His body fell to the ground and soon burnt to ash.

As Xion looked up to see the killer, the familiar blue
flame soon arisen from the ground. As of this moment he knew there was
only one thing he could to do. Kill Satan was the only thing on his
mind, and that's what he must do. It's important to the sequel.

After months of tracking Xion found Satan in a cave similar to
germane's. "Satan. Why do you torment your creatures? Is it fun to you?
Is that a game to you? Create and destroy? You killed-" Xion was cut
off in mid sentence. "Kill? What have I done? I've been in this cave
for years. I've been in here as punishment for killing Satan himself.
Nobody has ever come to see me. Ever." Said a kind friendly voice that
reminded him of his sister. " He turned me into this. He gave me power
to equal his. He tried to destroy me. And in the end I won. then I was
forgotten

A glazed over gold mask appeared. Eyes burned from the inside.
Out of the darkness came its face. " The light burns. The sun likes to
torment me. My eyes can't take it. Why have you come?" Xion looked
around. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the blue armor. "Is that
yours? I'm searching for someone who has armor just like that on-" Why
do you torment me? Why can't I live in peace? I'm so sorry."

" Mwaahahahahaha!" said the beast in a sinister voice. Three colored
lights glowed through the darkness. The creature came out of the
blackness of the cave. Three great eyes appeared each on long, thick,
20 feet appendages shinning brightly in a hypnotic sort of way. The
appendages were attached to a large semi circular body with five spider
like legs. "I torment you because I can. Because you are weak and you
need to be strong. You all need to suffer to become strong. And as long
as I'm here I will see to it. As for you." Satan looked around and
couldn't see anyone. "Talking to yourself again? Pathetic" Satan then
had a small twinge in the back of his neck. Then the beast collapsed.
Xion stabbed the beast through the back of its head and exit through
its mouth

Clouds of blue smoke filled the cavern. A shadowy figure
appeared and quickly rushed into his mouth. He couldn't breath. He
fainted.

He woke up. After years he finally woke up. He looked around and all he saw from one side of the land to the other was char and flame. His body a mess of scars. He realized that he did this he alone conquered the beast that killed everything he loved, but he destroyed everything else in the process. He remembered thousands of faces, bodies, and battles. He thought nothing existed beside himself. He dropped to his knees and wept. He brought up his blade, swung back his sword and cut his neck. His head on the ground, blood splattered, his body slowly sunk to the ground. If only he saw the hatched born far above.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Lets recap. Satan was trapped in a jewel on a sword for all eternity, Xion dyed by suicide (not to mention thousands of murders in his name), so he's a demented spirit ghost thing, and a new crystal born has hatched to create more. I smell a sequel. Here's the new story line for the sequel. You can review if you want. If not that's ok. I can never think of anything to say on reviews either.

Prologue

"Ow!" replied a young boy, tripping over a tree into mud. He rolled over in a pathetic attempt to get up. He pulled on something to getup. The thing fell loose next to her. The boy got smarter and grabbed a branch from a growing tree. He brought the thing and himself onto dry ground. He looked at the thing and scrubbed some dirt off. It was a blade. With stones that glitter like the night sky.

After years of peace, a boy finds a sword.
