Long ago there were two sides sides that constantly were entrenched in long-lasting warfare for the gains of the dominion of earth, the gods and the demons of Tartaurus. For many decades ,blood spewed the earth not only from the two opposing sides but from the many innocent men, women and children being caught in the chaos and destruction.

In the threat of being wiped out from existence ,the remaining families left behind the the once prosperous town of Shenzhen and had moved farther North to the more isolated regions of a small stretch of arable land which they called Santa Maria,after their queen who died in trying to get the citizens to safety.But unknown to the remaining townsfolk,among them would be the source of salvation ,but the cause of their damnation, because fifteen years and 364 days ago , a child like no other was was born.And that boy's was name Aiden.

Although he was born like any child his parents were from the two ends of the universe, his mother an angel and his father a demon.A week after his birth, the great war had once again broken out between the two sides. So like any other parent they did the only thing they could without drawing suspicion ,and that was to flee.Unfortunately,as they ran towards the edge of the village ,his father ,Wu was killed by a stray Divine Arrow,one of the only weaknesses that a demon had.The mother had turned back towards him but he had only just enough time to pass on his weapon,the blood blade ,before he died.

As the mother and child finally made it to the rest of the village, suffering from severe exhaustion and tiredness after following the trails of the village for days , his mother, Angela had fallen to her knees,waiting to accept death...

Moments later, a middle aged couple who had been passing by,on seeing the mother and the crying child on her back had enquired about her health.

"Excuse me miss, are you okay?" ,the man asked.

"It's... Too late for me ,please I beg you,look after my child after I'm gone"she managed to say.

" Come with us ,we can take care of you both. "The kind woman said.

" I told you I cannot go any further,here is where my soul must rest. But before I go,you must promise me that you will take care of my child,grow him in kindness and love and tell him about us,his parents when he is of age."

"But we don't know the first thing about you!",they said.

She told them about herself and her husband, about the importance of her child in ending the war between heaven and he'll and about th cataclysmic events that would take place if he dies.

"Please take this and give them to him when he is old and strong enough to wield them",she said as she passed on her sword of truth and her husband's blade.

" Thank you and goodbye, "she said after she gave her child a precious gift of gemstone ,a hug and a kiss goodbye before she bowed in humility and dissipated .

After the time that his mother passed away,the war had already ended,or so the people thought, but they had no sure way of telling it was really all over.But soon the days turn into months and the months turned into years of glorious prosperity and soon the camp village had escalated into becoming an almost modern township.

As always in their society ,there existed the three classes of people;the elite or wealthy families were at the top of it earning exorbitant sums of money only to be wasted on their lavish lifestyles while segregating themselves from the lower classes.The moderate income families having just enough for their livelihoods ,and the low income families who struggled for their everyday lives,were basically the backbone of the growing province,providing rich agricultural lands which provided the goods and a large percentage of income from trades with neighboring kingdoms and provinces ,but only to be treated extremely by the higher ups.

The day is September thirteenth ;and it marked a special day for Aiden in two ways,the first being that it marked the anniversary of his birth and second in the sense that he now felt ready to prove himself worthy of becoming a student of the Heavenly Knights Academy,the only school erected thus far in the growing province as to provide students opportunities to learn, acquire,practice and execute powerful skill sets in areas of war,including sorcery ,armed combat ,archery, weapons making etc., in the hopes that the kingdoms and the world at large would be ready to counter and prevent any effect of another clash between heaven and hell and loss of human life.

Aiden had been up all night at his lamp lit desk,contemplating his strategy to defeat his opponent in order to enter and become a part of the school,but suddenly as he was beginning to explore his thoughts,he heard the sound of wooden slippers shuffling down the street. "My letter has arrived." He said to himself. He peered out of his open window to confirm this,but to his surprise no one was there but there were a few parcels but no mailman.

Without another hesitation he crept quietly out of the window,and jumped of the roof to the point in the front yard which he now stood.As he walked a little closer to the parcels in front of his gaze, an eerie feeling took over him his " sixth" sense of danger now became extremely alert.

SWOOSH , a fist came crashing to the ground with Aiden effortlessly dodging it,but h was still astonished by the speed of the shadowy figure.He quickly replied with a flurry of left hooks,SWOOSH!,they all went as the figure too,displayed his skill of dodging.Aiden tried again in attacking the stranger ,this time adding an additional right hook and a leg sweep and THUMP ,the ,cloaked,tall man fell with a groan.Aiden moved in closer and noticed the bag he was carrying then almost immediately recognized the face of his attacker as the moonlight had shone up his face

"Joe?,is the you?" ,Aiden inquired,poking at his arm. "Who else would I be?,King Richard?" he said. "That figures, since you're the only postal worker who would try attacking a customer?" He smirked. "Wisecrack, are you gonna help me up or are you going to continue your chattering?" Joe asked. So Aiden helped him up until he could stand properly on his own and asked, "You have mail for me? I see parcels but no mail."

"As a matter of fact I do," he reached into his pocket and took out an opened mail letter and handed it to him. "Thanks," he said as he climbed up the pipe leading to the roof and crept silently once morning his room. As the postman made his way out of the yard he said , "You should really be thanking me for the training I just gave you ,because you'll be needing a lot more for your big day tomorrow."

Closing the window behind him Aiden took his letter under the light of the table lamp to read.

Head of the teacher council

Heavenly Knights Academy

After reading the letter he said to himself as he looked at the rapidly approaching dawn. "Kizame Yang huh? He'll definitely be a tough opponent to defeat, especially since he belongs to the wealthiest family in the province but no matter ,THE GAUNTLET IS ACCEPTED*!!"

At First there was nothing but pure darkness,beyond which was nothing but it then soon after the imagery had changed. It was the province,his hometown reduced to nothing but rubble and ash and swarming by each passing moment with more and more hordes of demon minions searching for any survivors on whose souls would have either been devoured by then or offered in sacrifice for the return of their sinister king.

As he looked upon himself, he saw on him the countless scars marking his arms and feet none of which were familiar except the strange glowing Dragonic head in which he always had dreams about,placed just barely under the sleeve of his battered armour of platinum.As he continued to gaze down in horror from the grassless hill on which he stood,at the sight of the countless numbers of lifeless bodies of men, women and children alike , a scream began to ring out from a distance ,from a voice he had known all his life.

From his back emerged his two pairs of dually coloured wings, lifting him up into the air, taking him in great flaps to the scream's direction.But by the time he covered half the distance it had already fell silent and now another began, this one being even more familiar, the voice of his adopted father.As the pleas and sobs began getting louder and louder Aiden doubled and even tripled his speed in a desperate attempt to try and save him

"I can't be late ,I just can't !!," He shouted.His house had already now come into view and he saw something that skyrocketed his rage and propelled him into darkness.His worst fear was now being enacted.

He watched on as his father was savagely slaughtered and his mother's lifeless body lay only a feet away, the person he loved and cared about the most ,bleeding out from a wound on her abdomen and a cloaked man leaning over her.At that point and time his body cocooned itself in his darkness and rage that could not have suppressed longer ,leaving the minions and their leader below in confusion.

The cloaked character pulled his hoodie off, revealing his face.He pointed at the cocoon above them and said, "Kill him."The ball immediately fell to the ground creating a crater in the middle of the street, crushing the scores of minions beneath it and leaving a sea of dust and debris.The demons instantly became infuriated when the dust cleared, but the leader's face remained neutral,as the winged creature stepped out of the crater ,embalmed with darkness.

" Get rid of this nuisance,"the leader said once again.They immediately charged in on the account of the orders given to them , encircling him and blasting him with a barrage of flame attacks.The towering flames crackled as of a thousand fireflies hitting an electric fence at regular intervals.They thought they had finished him off but to their surprise ,a a chilling voice came from the depths of the flames.

"I will finish you all."
