Chapter 5:

Her head felt heavy as she opened it, a bright light flickered into her face.

“I see you're awake” a voice boomed, it was elegant, and powerful. “Oh how I have waited all these years to see the chosen one of the cursed power handed down by the queen Amelia.”

Queen?

Cursed power?

Amelia?

What was going on?

CHOSEN

Her head was heavy, and she could hear the distant thumping of her brain protesting against the heavy slam her skull must have taken the moment it made contact with the ground.

She felt the muscles in her arms moan in agony, as the iron chains held her in place…she felt barbaric.

She heard a distant chuckle, it's sounded amused but disgusted at the same time.

“Sweet, sweet little Amelia Rose, I'm so glad you found it within your time to join me!” the deadly chuckle that followed afterwards made her stomach drop.

She looked up, but all she could see were shadows “who are you? What do you want from me?”

“What do I want you ask, I want a lot of things, maybe its power, or maybe…just maybe I want you wiped of the face of this world…I am a man of many wants and needs Amelia, and you play a vital piece in my desires.”

She sworn she could have felt tears begin to water her eyes, she didn't understand, she was as normal as the next hedgehog…unless.

“Look, if you're trying to use me to get to Sonic, it's not going to work.-”, Amy stopped abruptly when the Shadow started laughing at her, her eyes narrowed into slits.

“What's so funny? I wouldn't be laughing if I were you, you can't really say much if you're hiding in the dark you coward!”

Suddenly the laughing stopped, and a deep silence filled the dark.

“My oh my, what a ball of spit fire you are, soo much like her, you have the courage to call me a coward, when I feel the waves of fear running off you body like a river, wonder what I look like, wondering if I'll kill you, wondering why are all alone…”

Amy watched as the voice came out of the shadows, she cringed inwardly, biting back her tongue, she almost told him to step back into the shadows.

His left eye pure white, no pupil, with a long scar ran down it ending just above his nose, his other eye was pure blood red, the evil glint in his made his intentions clear, he looked as if he had no soul, no emotions, just pure hungry bloodlust.

“What's the matter, Rose, cat got your tongue?”

She felt her skin crawl at his tone, but she couldn't help but feel that she knew him from somewhere, like she had met him a long time ago, he was a hedgehog that much was clear, although his fur was pure black, just who was he?

“You- you…still haven't answered my question, who are you, and what do you want?” she had to admit she sounded braver than she felt.

“My name is Loren…you see along time ago, I was locked away for committing treason, and now I'm back and I intend to carry out my goal”

Amy frowned “But why do you need me!”

“Ah, ah, ahh” he said, shaking his finger at her, “I shall explain in due time, for you see you play, a very important part in this….because once a time ago…”

CHOSEN

The beautiful sound of laughter was found in the wind as a pink hedgehog ran gleefully through the grass; she loved the smell of it, the feel of it, as she became one with the elements.

“Amelia!”

A distant voice called out the young girl's name she turned around as she saw her friend running towards her, his black fur shinning in the sun, and his amber eyes were focused solely on her

“Loren, good afternoon, what's wrong?”

Loren, who could barley breath, settled his arms on his hands knees.

“Didn't you hear they said they were going to announce the chosen prodigy, the one who will go on to study to become the Godai?”

Amelia could hear the excited tone in his voice, Loren was always obsessed with becoming Godai; he had studied and mastered his chosen element to almost unimaginable heights.

Amelia herself was also chosen, although not for selfish reason, the elders felt that she generally cared for others, which she did, she believed in second chances, and doing the right thing, and following instincts.

“Well then Loren let's go, what are we waiting for, let's go?”

Every era a new person would be chosen to become the leader of all that makes mankind, people call it becoming one with the world, there was a chosen students that would be born every era, with the gift and the mark to become The Godai.

Amelia was originally from the land of Aether, she could communicate with the un-dead, as well as move her spirit around freely, it was seen as a weak gift and the weakest of all lands, yet she prided herself, in her gift, she could harness energy from all life, and use spirits to defend herself, and people from all lands knew she was quite powerful, but not as powerful as Loren.

Loren was from the land of Jala, he could manipulate water, to his every whim, and become one with it, he was very skilled, and people always believed that he would be the one to be chosen to become Godai, and he had the arrogance and confidence that he would become Godai as well.

Today was the day, that the chosen one would be elected, it was normally men who were chosen and Amelia was the first woman in many generations to be elected, and who ever was chosen would be taken under special training, learning about all five elements:

Aether

Tejas

Jala

Pavan

Prithvi

Once that was accomplished they will be become The Godai, a being who protected and became one with the earth.

“Who do you think will be chosen?” asked Amelia as the entered the grand temple, as she bowed her head in respect to people who came to pray.

“I have no doubt in my mind it will be me, even Minoru said so” Loren boasted as he followed Amelia's example and bowed down.

Minoru was the current Godai, and he and Loren shared a special bond, as the both came from the land of Jala, Loren also looked up to him, wanting to become powerful just like him, after all power was a great thing.

“Loren, Amelia, hurry up you're both the last to have arrived” they both looked up to see Minoru, his tiger paws were folded and golden robes that adorned him showed his important authority.

They both bowed and quickly entered the room, joining the other five specialists.

The ceremony was long and boring as the elders recited what it took to become Godai, and how to obtain each element.

Then the time came, as one by one the elders congratulated each of the specialists for their skills and dedication.

“Amelia, you have proved to be a compassionate person, you show leadership, and authority when it the right time, and you also use your gifts from the land of Aether for the greater good, of others, and I have no doubt in your mind that the people of your land are proud of you!”

Amelia smiled and bowed her head in respect.

“And Loren you have proved, to be a strong warrior, with great skills, you know how to take charge of the companions and eliminate all that threatens these lands, your water skills are unlike any we have ever witnessed, and I'm sure your parents will be proud.”

Loren bowed his head in respect, he could almost feel the power within his grasp…

“All of you have shown that you have the, dedication to become the next Godai, you showed and unleashed your true beings, in the last few years, however as you know only one of you can become Godai, and it is with great pleasure that we anoint Amelia Rose of land Aether to become the next Godai!”

There was a deep silence, and Amelia felt her heart drum inside her chest, they had chosen her, the elders have chosen her, she felt a deep wave of honour flow through her, the fact that they even considered her, in the first place was too much, her parents would be proud.

Then…she looked to the side, and she felt guilty as she looked at Loren, he looked soo grief stricken, this was the only thing he had been pining for, for a long time, he was dedicated, and put so much effort into everything, and he sacrificed hours that she had spent lazing about.

Although before she could speak to him, she was rushed off to a banquet in her name, where she was congratulated for her efforts and her efforts. It was a good two hours before she saw Loren…

“I'm asking you to reconsider your choices; I believe that I am more capable of becoming Godai than Amelia!”

“I'm sorry Loren, but it's about the purity of ones heart, not just their commitment and the strength, you make a fine warrior, but not Godai, you lack the feelings and the compassion for others, something you have chosen not to learn.”

Amelia gasped, she was on her way back to her rooms, and as she passed the elders prayer room, she was shocked to hear Loren shouting his out Rage.

She saw him stomp out of the doors, before slamming them shut, he recognised her before she could speak, and his eyes were narrowed dangerously, the anger washing over her like a tidal wave.

“Loren…I-I apologise, I know how much it means too you, and I must say that although I feel honoured, I also feel very guilty, I know you wanted it more than anyone else…”

She felt his eyes on her trailing down from her face, to the very soles of her feet, as normal amber eyes turned cold.

“How long Amelia?”

“…how long?”

“How long have you been planning, to steal this away from me, the only one thing I had!”

Amelia gasped, he thought she planned it, that she would betray him by taking away his dream.

“I haven't planned anything, the elders chose me, and I had no idea…”

“You had no IDEA!” he raised his voice “I knew it, I knew you were jealous of me, you were jealous, that the orphan child was better, Stronger, more Powerful than you! You have always been jealous of me Amelia, I see it in the way you try soo hard to impress others, and you decided to backstab me! You ungrateful bitch, you destroyed my life!”

“Jealous of you…Loren that's ridiculous, I never betrayed you, and I've always supported you-”

Amy gasped as she was cornered against the wall, Loren's amber eyes boring into hers.

“I'm going to take away every last part of your life that is precious to you, I'm going to drag you down into the deepest depths of darkness for the rest of your life Amelia Rose…just you wait !”

Loren left and, he never came back...
