Chapter 1 “The world of Mana Gatesâ€Â
Thousands of years ago in the land of Mana there was peace and harmony throughout the land. The people of this world were ruled by the gentle king Oberon and his wife Lucia. The land flourished and each person was blessed with magical powers of the elements that flowed from the tree of Mana. This energy gave ordinary people extraordinary powers and as a result everyone in the land was equal. The king’s family flourished and he had 3 sons and 3 daughters. Each of them was proficient in a different element. Aquia was a water wielder, Pyres was a fire wielder, Aire was a wind wielder, Bolt was a thunder wielder, Rocky was an earth wielder and finally Deirdre who was a darkness wielder. They all remained untied under their father’s rule because he had obtained the ability to control all the elements making him the strongest in the land. The world continued on in this manner for a long time until king Oberon died suddenly in his sleep.
The children began fighting amongst themselves to decide who would become the king or queen of Mana. Their mother tried to calm their quarreling but she could never succeed. After years of turmoil queen Lucia died from a broken heart. The true fight for power began there because with no glue holding the now adults together they all separated and began their fight for power. The war continued for many years and vast amounts of mana were being drained from the Tree of Mana. Soon it seemed that all the magic was dried up and the tree disappeared. This caused the fighting to escalate to even greater heights because each side blamed the other for the destruction of the tree. Each child of Oberon had now set up their own kingdom in different regions of Mana and the fighting had come to a stalemate because now they had no power with which to fight.
Years passed of an uneasy peace between the 6 nations but when the kingdoms began developing technology to tap into the remaining mana of the world the fighting recommenced. Since less people had the ability to wield magic the sides were often uneven and sometimes one kingdom would completely dominate another only to be defeated by one of the other kingdoms. Since their new way of fighting was obviously not working each kingdom ceased fighting and once again began developing ways to harness the power that they once had been able to use with the greatest of ease. Shortly after the children of Oberon began dying a new form of mana control was formed by tattooing special symbols on peoples hands they could tap into the mana flow of the planet and use it at will. This took a heavy on the user’s body because in order to use it they had to put some of their energy into the tattoo when they summoned the power and the more energy they put in the more drained their bodies felt. These tattoos are called “mana gatesâ€Â. Only one of the original rulers of Mana was still alive and that was the youngest of them, the wielder of darkness, Deirdre. Her kingdom was the least active in fighting but it was one of the most powerful. It would only defend itself if attacked but would not invade other nations. Once all her siblings were dead Deirdre tried to reach out to the new rulers to come to a peaceful reconciliation but her attempts were in vain and at the peace conference a fire wielder using a mana gate attacked Deirdre and since her magic had been drained and she was very old she died instantly.
The years that followed were chaotic and ruler by those who had mana gates. Eager to use their powers the new rulers were constantly in battle except the Darkness nation that still maintained its neutrality. This all remained the same until the other 5 nations made a temporary alliance to destroy the darkness nation and split up its goods. While all these plans were being made the children of the original 6 rulers were in hiding because they were being looked down upon because all of them wanted nothing more to live in peace and harmony with each other unlike their parents. The children of the original 6 rulers disappeared and nobody knows what happened to them but a legend appeared that was whispered amongst the low class people of each nation. The legend was that someone that could wield all the elements would rise one day, bring back the mana tree and that there would be peace again in the land of Mana.
Our story begins several years after the proposed alliance between the 5 other nations and begins in the darkness nation. It is the story of a teenager named Calintz whose father is the son of Deirdre. Unlike his parents he hates the whole peace and love thing and he was born with a mana gate which is very unusual considering none of his family members ever had one.
Chapter 2 “You’re such a show off Calintz!â€Â
As Calintz walked through the hallway of the barracks of the defense division of the darkness army he thought to himself about how futile it was to try and remain neutral in a time of war. He knew that as long as they stayed like this they would be weak and unable to thwart an invasion if one should happen. Calintz is currently the top ranked member of the darkness army and has never been defeated. He is the only member of the army to have ever been in a true fight and this fight was between him and a fire nation child when he was only a boy. Calintz never planned to join the army he originally wanted to explore but since he was born with a mana gate it was assumed that he would join even though it was against his and his parent’s wishes. Regardless of that he was the best soldier and he never was out of line but he deep down knew that the darkness nation couldn’t last very long with the stance they have now.
As Calintz passed the briefing room he was stopped by his commander who said he urgently needed to speak with him. The commander asked him to give a show to the new trainees of the army to show just how powerful the army members could be. Calintz agreed to help out and immediately went to the training area where he was met with thunderous applause from the new rookies. He walked to the center of the training arena and the commander walked in behind him and yelled for the rookies to be quiet for a minute. He then started to speak with great authority “I have brought you all here to issue a challenge to show you what you could be capable of if you join the army. Anyone who wants to can challenge our senior officer Calintz Rogue. So who is first?†All the rookies began to scream and yell and 50 of them got in line to fight Calintz. The first fighter approached Calintz and pulled out a boa staff. In response Calintz pulled out a wooden sword. Within seconds Calintz took out 20 of the fighters that had volunteered and the rest all surrendered without even throwing a punch. Calintz then threw his wooden sword on the ground and slowly walked out of the training room without even breaking a sweat.
He made it half way through the hall and he heard from behind him “You’re such a show off Calintz! Come on couldn’t you have even gave those kids a chance to fight back instead of just knocking them out as fast as you could.†Calintz turned around “So Mimi I didn’t think I would see you today I thought you were on a mission to the weapon development lab?†Mimi grabbed his arm and dragged him to the cafeteria and forced him to sit down and she came back with pudding. “Is this still your favorite Calintz?†Calintz nodded and smiled. She always seemed to know what to say or do when he wasn’t feeling 100%. If she wasn’t already engaged to the general of the darkness army then he would have liked to date her. Her fiancé walked into the cafeteria and sat down next to Mimi. He smiled at her and then looked Calintz in the eyes “So I heard about you little show in the training room today. I heard you beat some rookies up pretty bad. If you keep up with that attitude then you will never get a promotion. Every time someone asks you to do something extra other than your normal job you always do it but over do it.†Calintz stood up and walked out of the cafeteria.
Mimi stood up and looked down at the general “God Jean why do you always do that every time I am hanging out with the Calintz? We have been friends since we were kids and now I can’t spend a moment alone with him without you getting jealous!†She then stormed out of the Café. General Jean sat alone at the table and began muttering to himself “That stupid Calintz he will pay. Every time I want some time with my girl he always seems to be in the way. I will make sure that he gets demoted.†He sat alone at the table and just fumed.
Calintz had already made it to his room and locked his room. “Why do I put up with this bull? I could take him out in a second just like those rookies. I know that if I wanted to I could be general but with him on the job I will stay just an officer in the army.†Calintz laid back in his bed and fell fast a sleep.
Chapter 3 “I knew he was a rogueâ€Â
A panicked knock woke Calintz from his deep sleep and when he opened his door he saw that the person at his door was Mimi. “What do you want Mimi?†She was breathing heavily and she couldn’t seem to utter out a coherent sentence and it was just a jumble of words. “Ok slow down Mimi tell me exactly what the problem is.†She braced herself against the door frame and continued to breathe hard “News just in from the intelligence division! It seems that the other five nations of Mana are arranging and alliance against us. They will plan an attack and with one foul swoop they will attack us and wipe us out!†Calintz showed no reaction to the news because he knew it was bound to happen it was only a matter of time. “Alright Mimi what plans are they making to counter attack this alliance?†From behind her came Jean “So Calintz you heard of our predicament? We have it under control. We plan to negotiate with them and if it comes to it we will surrender.†Calintz was dumbstruck “No way! Why would we do that? It makes no sense. Why waste all our effort on giving up? We built our army to defend ourselves not to just to give up!†Calintz sprinted down the hall and saw the king of the Darkness nation walking down the hall followed by his negotiations team and he instantly knew that what he heard was the truth. He then walked past Mimi and Jean and when Mimi went to talk to him he just walked past her and proceeded to go into his room and lock the door.
He sat alone in his room for hours and as he began to fall asleep he heard a commotion outside. He walked outside and saw the king walking back into the war room and saw that he had a very downtrodden look on his face. Calintz clenched his fist and knew that they were going to surrender. He heard screams coming from the war room and he decided to listen in. It was Jean screaming Calintz could make him out saying “Why on earth wouldn’t they accept our surrender?!?! This is complete and total absurdity!!†This is what Calintz had wanted to happen but he then heard something that disturbed him it was the king “We don’t stand a chance against their army so we will not fight back we will accept our fate the army infantry division will be dissolved and disbanded thank you for your efforts but we have no choice but to give up†Jean walked out of the room and as he looked down the hall he saw Calintz walking back into his room. A few minutes Calintz was making his way down the main hall of the army and he had made his decision he would follow his own path. He would accept extinction quietly he would get stronger and fight back even if there was no darkness nation he is determined to survive. “I will not let the lessons of the darkness nation disappear I will carry them on within meâ€Â.
Inside the base Mimi and Jean watched Calintz as he walked away. “I knew he was a rogue. He would be the first to desert the army†said Jean as he walked away. Mimi watched on the verge of tears as her old friend walked slowly into the distance. She muttered to herself “I believe in you Calintz… You may be the only one of us to survive and I hope that you do because you are the only one who carries on the true ideals of the darkness nation.†As she spoke her words all of the warriors in the army started to march into the audience room to hear the bad news and to hear the fate of the darkness nation.
