Chapter LXVII: Sebastion's Entrance ~Sebastion
On the Order of Gabriels shining homeworld of Carmalev. The enthusiastic energy trainee Sebastion Ebask had been asked into the high energy lords command chamber. He saluted he guards outside they proceeded to wave him into the room. The large pair of wooden doors that had opened to allow his entrance now swung shut with a loud boom. The high energy lord Nactan stood at the center of the room studying a projection on his holoscreen. Sebastion hurried in and knelt before the leader of the Order of Gabriel. It was no everyday occurrence that one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse called you before him in a private meeting.
Sebastion in a faint voice "What is thy bidding".
The high energy lord smiled and handed Sebastion a mission briefing on a clipboard.
"This is a trial mission upon completion you will be named a energy guardian worthy to defend the order" the energy lord told him.
Sebastion could only nod dumbly "Your will is my command" Sebastion replied
He then stumbled to his feet and clutching the clipboard walked out of the room. "I must not fail" Sebastion muttered to himself as he proceeded down the long hallway of the command center.
He paused for a minute to read the mission briefing it described a infiltration and information gathering mission on a group of persons searching for the creation's weapons. Sebastion had never heard of such things then again he has never gotten a chance at a trial mission either what are the odds. Only 62 years of service and already a chance to become a guardian he thought to himself smugly. He flipped the rest of the papers in the briefing most of it detailing the equipment he would be using, the background of some of the persons he would see once he reached his target.
"Target" Sebastion muttered and began flipping more pages till be located the name of what exactly he would be inflitrating. Confused he read the statement again. Sure enough his eyes were not deceiving him he was infiltrating a train, but not just a ordinary train a transdimensional train. It also just happens to be being tracked by the orders spy networks. He began walking again continuing down the hallway until he reached a lift, which opened for him upon his approach. He entered the designated code and location. He thought to himself transdimension train, creations weapons whats this all about. The lift door opened revealing a the massive dome like structure of the orders spaceport. He moved quickly towards into the chartered crafts area, but before he could move a couple of steps a burly man with a engineering insignia approached him and handed him a piece of paper. Sebastion read it, signed along the dotted line at the bottom of the page accepting the mission. The engineer took the clipboard from Sebastions grasp. Sebastion proceeded to the designated launch pad on which the ship given to him for this mission sat in standby. Sebastion viewed the craft a newer model by the looks of it. Its thin, black, triangular shape made it look almost like a mirror. Sebastion noticed the cockpit was open, and that the fueling lines had been disconnected it must be ready for launch. Sebastion began to lift himself off the ground and levitated himself above the crafts then lowered himself gently into the cockpit of the craft. The pre flight checks had already been completed all that needed to be done now was to begin launch. After receiving permission from the control tower Sebastion pressed the large red launch button in the center of his controls. Silently the ship lifted off and proceeded to high atmospheric orbit, once there the ship began procedure to begin foldspace. Sebastion checked the pre set course that the computer said would intercept the spectrum.
"This will be easy" he thought to himself "All I have to do is sneak up to the ship then warp onto it". No problem piece of cake right. Sebastion told himself he then set himself into a mediation trance preparing himself for the mission ahead. "I am a Energic trainee in the Order of Gabriel I will protect the multiverse from evil that is my sworn duty" Sebastion though as the ship lurched into foldspace.
Sebastion left the trance once he felt the ship return to normal speed and felt the gravitation engines kick in. He check his coordinates confirming that he was indeed in the right place to meet up with the spectrum. He scanned the area finding that he ship was only 20 kilometers away. The ship was already cloaked as it speed up to the spectrum and in a matter of minutes was only a few feet away from the speeding train. Sebastion now began to execute the hardest part of the mission the infiltration part. He has learned the warp technique in training, but had never just it in the field required to much energy and anyway he couldn't warp more than of few 100 feet anyway. Sebastion thought of the location he intended to go to then began to feel the warm, enveloping sensation of the warp over take him. He closed his eyes, but when he opened them he wasn't in the cramped luggage car he had intended to warp to no he was in what appeared to be a passenger car, which at the moment was occupied by some passengers. The group stared at him as he stared back blinking he managed to choke out "I'm uhh sorry i didn't uhh mean to barge in like this".
Then without warning Mazzic leaped forward and grabbed the trainee by the throat slamming him against the wall of the car. "Who are you, and what do you want" Mazzic shouted.
Grabbing at his throat Sebastion managed to squeak "I've been sent by the Order of Gabriel to assist you in gathering the creations weapons". The order had taught him to be resourceful in times of crisis even to make up a story if the situation required it and by the look of things the situation probably needed something along those lines. In this case though it must have been the wrong thing to say because Mazzic strengthened his grasp on Sebastion throat "How do you know of the creations weapons who told you speak before i kill you" he said in a not so nice tone.
"As i said the order has informed me of your plight and has sent me to assist you my name is Sebastion". Sebastion replied in a more controlled tone although he still was trying to pry Mazzic's fingers from around his throat.
At this point CR stepped forward and placed a arm on Mazzic's shoulder "Calm down let him go I don't think he means any harm". CR said in a calm voice.
Mazzic reluctantly released his grip on the weakened trainee and he slumped to the floor before getting up and fixing his collar. "Sorry about the whole suddenly appearing thing I didn't mean to scare you all". Sebastion told the group in a apologetic voice.
Prism stepped forward smiled at him and winked "looks like we have another person to add to our entourage".
