THE BLUE SAGA
Saga – Chapter 2
"The First Distortion"
2 Hours Ago…
India.
The sky trembles violently.
Dark clouds split apart—
as a massive spaceship descends from above.
Its engines roar like a storm tearing through the heavens.
SHHHHHHHHHHH—
The vibration spreads across the city.
Windows shake.
Dust rises into the air.
People freeze in fear—
staring upward.
The giant spacecraft slowly lowers itself toward the ground.
Then—
BOOOOOOOOOOM—
The impact shakes the entire area.
Roads crack beneath the ship's enormous weight.
For a moment…
everything becomes silent.
Then—
HISSSSSSSSS—
The hatch slowly opens.
Cold air escapes from inside.
Several figures emerge from the darkness.
Their silhouettes appear against the fading sunlight.
Unknown Voice - It's been a while…
This planet has changed a lot.
Another figure steps forward.
Unknown 2 - You speak as if you've been here before, leader.
The first figure looks toward the city silently.
Unknown - I have.
Around five years ago.
At least…
according to Earth's time.
Unknown 2 - Then you must know this world well.
Unknown - Perhaps.
But this Earth feels different now.
Humans evolved faster than expected.
The leader slowly scans the surroundings.
Unknown - Technology advanced.
Infrastructure changed.
Even the atmosphere feels heavier.
Then—
the leader's tone sharpens.
Unknown - Enough observation.
We need to find him immediately.
Io activates a floating scanner.
Io - Signal detected.
Location confirmed.
He's somewhere nearby.
Unknown - Good.
The leader steps forward calmly.
Unknown - Everyone.
Report.
Unknown - Io?
Io salutes dramatically.
Io - Present, leader. ( -_- )
Though honestly…
I'm literally standing in front of you.
Unknown - Nebula?
Nebula - Present.
Unknown - Trillium?
Trillium smirks confidently.
Trillium - Present, leader.
Finally…
something interesting is happening.
Unknown - And my younger brother…
Nairo.
Nairo exhales in annoyance.
Nairo - ಠ_ಠ Seriously…
Why did we even come back for that idiot?
We should've left him on this planet.
Unknown - I understand your frustration.
The leader's voice remains calm—
but firm.
Unknown - But he's still one of us.
Silence fills the air briefly.
Unknown - I only sent him here four Earth days ago.
(pauses)
Unknown - Yet according to this planet…
four entire months have passed.
Everyone freezes.
Nebula - That's impossible…
Unknown - Exactly.
Something is wrong.
Not just with him…
but with time itself.
---
The group begins moving through the streets.
Their footsteps echo quietly.
Ahead—
a large crowd gathers near an intersection.
People whisper nervously.
Others slowly back away in fear.
Nebula - Leader…
what's happening over there?
Unknown - Let's find out.
The team pushes through the crowd.
Two men are fighting violently in the middle of the street.
Punches fly wildly.
Anger.
Noise.
Chaos.
Unknown - (-_-)
Humans truly never change.
Always destroying each other over meaningless things.
Then suddenly—
CRACK.
The sound echoes unnaturally.
The two men freeze.
Their bodies begin shaking violently.
Bones twist beneath their skin.
CRACK—
CRACK—
Muscles expand unnaturally.
Their clothes rip apart.
RRRRRRIP—
People nearby scream in terror.
Their heads begin distorting.
Eyes disappear.
Ears vanish.
Hair erupts across their bodies like wild beasts.
Within seconds—
they transform into horrifying monsters.
Cygon - HAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH—
The ground trembles beneath their roar.
Nebula slowly steps back.
Nebula - Leader…
Are you sure…?
The leader's expression darkens slightly.
Unknown - Yes.
It's a Cygon.
---
One Cygon suddenly lunges toward a nearby girl.
Cygon - HAAAAAAAAAA—
Unknown - Platinum Apex.
HSSSSSSSS—
A spinning weapon launches through the air instantly.
WHOOOOOSH—
The weapon strikes the Cygon directly.
The creature freezes mid-motion.
Completely paralyzed.
Unknown - The deadliest neurotoxin from our planet.
Once it enters the nervous system…
the body stops responding.
Permanently.
The girl stares in shock.
But suddenly—
the frozen Cygon begins swelling violently.
Veins pulse across its body.
Energy surges beneath its skin.
Unknown - What…?
No—
Unknown - Gen 2.
Activate.
In a flash—
the leader dashes forward instantly—
grabbing the girl.
A glowing barrier forms around them.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM—
The Cygon explodes violently.
Shockwaves tear through nearby buildings.
Windows shatter.
Smoke fills the entire street.
Debris flies everywhere.
Yet—
the shield remains untouched.
Unbroken.
---
Girl - W-Where am I…?
The leader smiles softly.
Unknown - Hmm ^_^
You're safe now.
Girl - Thank you… big sister… (π_π)
Unknown - No problem.
---
Elsewhere—
another Cygon charges forward.
Nairo smirks.
Nairo - Finally.
Gen 6…
Gama Beam.
SHHHHHHHHHHH—
A concentrated beam erupts forward—
burning through the street itself.
Trillium immediately follows.
Trillium - Gen 3…
Silver Dust.
Millions of microscopic particles spread through the air—
cutting everything apart.
HHHHHHHHHH—
The attacks collide against the monster simultaneously.
But—
the Cygon ROARS louder.
Cygon - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA—
Its body expands even further.
Buildings crack apart beneath its strength.
BOOM—
CRASH—
Trillium - It's adapting?!
Nairo - Idiot!
Don't lose focus!
Nairo forms another weapon instantly.
Nairo - Gen 5…
Paitho.
A glowing arrow launches forward—
piercing the Cygon directly.
BOOOOOOOOOOM—
Half of the monster's face explodes apart.
Energy bursts outward violently.
Trillium grins.
Trillium - That worked!
Nairo attacks again relentlessly.
Trillium - Gen 8…
Mikaro.
A glowing yellow projectile tears through the battlefield.
The Cygon screams violently.
Cygon - AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH—
---
The rescued girl stares at the leader nervously.
Girl - Who are you…?
The leader remains silent briefly.
Then smiles faintly.
Unknown - Me?
I'm the leader of this team.
Unknown - My name is…
Nova.
---
Nearby—
the injured Cygon suddenly twitches again.
Its body begins distorting further.
Cygon - HHHHHHHHH—
Something changes.
Something worse.
Nairo - Look at him…
He's getting creepier. (・o・)
Trillium folds his arms confidently.
Trillium - Obviously.
He realized I'm stronger than you.
Nairo - Keep dreaming. ᕙ( ~ . ~ )ᕗ
Suddenly—
the Cygon speaks.
Cygon - Shin…
The…
Sa…
Everything freezes instantly.
Nairo - What…?
Trillium - That sound—
Nebula - LEADER!!
Io - Oh no…
Nova's expression becomes serious.
Nova - Hmmm…
(as if she expected this)
Nova - I knew it.
Nova slowly raises her hand.
Nova - Platinum Apex…
Level 3.
Silence.
Then—
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM—
A catastrophic explosion engulfs the battlefield.
Light consumes everything.
Shockwaves spread across the city.
Smoke rises into the sky like a storm cloud.
---
Minutes later…
the smoke finally clears.
A massive crater remains.
Everything nearby has been destroyed completely.
Io slowly lifts his head.
Io - (_) What…
just happened…?
Did I accidentally reach heaven…?
Nova stands calmly at the center.
Her shield protects everyone.
Completely unharmed.
---
Nairo crosses his arms angrily.
Nairo - ಠ_ಠ I had everything under control.
Why did you interfere?
Nova smiles slightly.
Nova - Kids shouldn't interrupt…
while adults are working.
Nebula helps Io stand up.
Nebula - Get up already.
Io - WAIT—
I'm alive?! ＼(°o°)／
Nebula - Obviously.
The leader protected us.
Trillium sighs dramatically.
Trillium - We were finally enjoying ourselves.
You ruined the fun.
Nova - Yes.
I saw your "fun."
Getting beaten up.
Now move.
Nova turns toward Io.
Nova - Take the Cygon's head back to the lab.
Io freezes.
Io - W-WHAT?!
You cut its head off?! ＼(°o°)／
Nova - Yes.
We need answers.
That transformation…
wasn't normal.
---
The team begins leaving the destroyed battlefield.
Their footsteps echo quietly.
Then—
an old voice stops them.
Old Man - Wait…
kid.
Nova pauses.
Nova - Hmm?
What is it, old man? (^_^)
The old man stares directly into her eyes.
Old Man - What if I told you…
you're going to die soon?
Nova's expression hardens.
Nova - What nonsense are you talking about?
The old man slowly steps closer.
Old Man - Your death…
will come…
from your love.
Silence.
For the first time—
Nova's expression changes completely.
Nova - Impossible…
That can't happen.
You're insane.
The old man leans closer.
Then whispers something into her ear.
Nova's eyes widen instantly.
Nova - What…?
What are you saying…?
I…?
Suddenly—
Nebula shouts from behind.
Nebula - LEADER!!
Come on!
Nova turns around briefly.
Then looks back again—
The old man is gone.
Vanished completely.
Nova stares silently.
Nova - …Where did he go?
Nebula - Leader?
Nova exhales slowly.
Nova - Hhh…
I'm coming.
