Warriors Journey•Rise of the Demon Part 1
Chapter 1- Butterflies

3000 years ago…

The King of this ignorant planet, Malema. He speaks with kindness and care to the worlds entity of evil and hate. King Polo placed his right foot forward and breathed in the morning air. The two had been fighting for twelve hours. The sun had crept over the horizon and it shined on the King. He felt the sunlight give him power and confidence.

" Step down Demon Dragon, if you surrender now I will spare your spirit and release it among your ancestors. It's not much but it's all I have to offer", King Polo of Malema said to the Demonic humanoid. The Demonic Humanoid that The King faced stood no more than ten feet away. He stood much taller than the king.

" Even if you win…I will come back and devour your child". The Demon Dragon took a step closer." I will make you watch as I rip apart their ribs and splatter their blood across your face. The smell of death will infest your nostrils and haunt you for the rest of your pathetic life". His voice radiated pure evil as he giggled in anguish.

With the golden katana, King Polo wielded he slashes the air, causing a wind to throw The Demon back and gone…he disappeared instantly into the purple portal that floated menacingly in the air. He closed his eyes in respect. He pulled his katana back and placed it in its sheath. Where it belonged.

" I know we didn't get along but I hope your spirit finds its place among the others". The peace that King Polo kept with him at all times was a defense mechanism. Peace was his way of life and he hopes that this moment will give the people of Malema peace once again.

Ben came back to reality and not ten seconds later he yelled, " Let's go now! Let's go now!" Dr. Gemm laughed and walked to get the one thing a scientist would ever need, his bag of journals. Dr. Gemm had recorded every plant, rock, and animal in the Mal-X desert. He puts his bag over his shoulder and says, " Let's go". Ben jumps up and says," How long of a walk is it to the portal?" Gemm answers without skipping a beat. " 15 miles. We should get there. an hour before sunset". Ben adds to Dr.Gemm's answer with a smile. " Leaving us enough time to walk down the hill and into the Kings Castle". " Exactly ", Dr.Gemm ends.

Dr. Gemm went out first with Ben following. He closed the bamboo door and set his bare feet in the warm sand that covered the entire continent of the Mal-X desert. This is where Ben was raised by Dr.Gemm. He didn't want to leave because he had grown so accustomed to this place. Deep down he felt like he had to, the start of a new journey was on the rise and he could feel it.

No one greeted them or even said goodbye. Ben felt like an outcast. He grew up with these people and they didn't even say goodbye. He didn't talk to his father about this. He didn't want him to worry. It...
