The New Gen Chapters: Ender's Influence

          "Now I am going to go speak with Khan.", Ender says to his beloved, Hella. Hella then says to him, "Do what you must. I will remain here and handle any unwanted guess of Oliver's side, that enter my end of the Under-Lair."

         Ender nods and gives Hella a hug and kiss before leaving out of her icy castle, into the grounds of frozen intruders. He heads all the way to his side of the Under-Lair where its warmer and fire burns brightly. Ender enters his castle and is met by his right hand, Meiphysto. Meiphysto says to Ender, "Hey, I have been working on that project you told me to do. Would you like to see the results?"

        "Indeed I would like to see the results.", Ender responds. "Excellent, come hither.", Meiphysto says and leads Ender into his work room. As they enter the room, there are fossilized animal body parts sitting on shelves, and cages full of abominable creatures; two of theses abominable creatures, sit chained to a surgical table. The two chained creatures have fur all over their bodies, the arms and legs similar to that of beings like Ender and Meiphysto themselves, flat and sharp teeth in their mouths, and rounded mouths and small head with protruding eyebrows. Ender looks at the creatures in disgust and says, "Ew, what are these? They look nothing like me and you."

          "I understand you wanted me to make beings such as you and I, to compete with Oliver, but unfortunately we do not have body parts of any beings like me and you. However, I did combine the brains of some animals to make two brains that function similar to ours, but they still have their animal like instincts in mind. They also have thicker bones to withstand physical attacks.", Meiphysto explains. "Can any of them speak?", Ender asks. "Unfortunately their physical structures of their mouths makes it difficult for them to form complex words, but you can still teach them through physical body communication.", Meiphysto answers. Ender sighs and says, "Well prepare them for release onto the surface. I got another task that I will need your help with again."

         Meiphysto nods and puts the two creatures in cages and grabs a basket cage containing a snake. They both head up to the surface of Cor from the deep cave in the side of a mountain, where the Under-Lair lies. Ender says to Meiphysto, "Okay, now release the.....", he pauses as he looks at the two abominable creatures mating within their cage. "My apologies Ender, I forgot to mention that part of their brains was made from the brains of highly sexually active animals. I thought that might be useful in getting them to reproduce a little faster.", Meiphysto explains the unfortunate circumstance. "Indeed that is useful, just a little unexpected is all. Now open their cage and let them run wild.", Ender says. Meiphysto opens their cage and they immediately stop what they were doing and run out of their cage, far into the forest. "Well now that they're off, I need you to transfer my conscious into a snake so I can make my way to where the garden where Oliver's newly bred followers lie.", Ender says. Meiphysto comments, "You know that's going to be a long journey from here, especially as a snake, don't you?"

          "Indeed I do Meiphysto. Its a long enough journey for you to train those creatures into an army and lead them in the direction of the garden, once there is enough of them.", Ender says. "Very well then, but might I ask, what makes you want to travel to the garden again, knowing that Oliver has warned them of you?", Meiphysto asks. "I have received word from one of our hidden eyes, that Agalhoff and Diana have a son who seems to be very questionable about his environment. They named him Khan, a nice young lad they have created, but he is open to doubt because of his questioning nature, that leaves room for me to disrupt Oliver's teachings that Agalhoff and Diana most likely fed him; well, Agalhoff mostly in this case. Diana still has some doubts in her mind from the last time I visited.", Ender explained. "Agh, well I have no doubt you will disrupt Oliver's teachings. Its a shame that Diana and Agalhoff were used to pave the way for Oliver's ridiculous ideal world.", Meiphysto says. Ender sighs and says, "Well from what I hear, they chose to do it."

          "Do you think they really made the choice to partake in Oliver's plans?", Meiphysto asks. "I don't see much reason to believe they didn't, considering that they did nothing when Oliver decided to cut me out of the Arch Squad; and when me, you, Hella, and the others rebelled against Oliver, they fought along side him.", Ender mentions angrily. Meiphysto sighs, "Indeed they have, but I don't think that their falling out with you as a good friend, started there Ender."

         "It didn't, it started when they killed a good cousin of mine. Even if he let the Authority of Cor take me away and I was mad at him for it, I never wished death upon him for doing so. I understand that he really couldn't do anything, he was powerless stop them, just like I too was powerless to stop them.", Ender says. "Sounds to me like you forgave him for his betrayal.", Meiphysto comments. "I did, now I have enough understanding to know why he did.", Ender says. "Well that being said Ender, do you think that maybe there is an understanding that you're lacking as to why your friend's would go against your wishes and kill your cousin, and that your lacking of this understanding may be keeping you from forgiving them for their wrongdoing?", Meiphysto asks. "Maybe so, but there is no time to ponder on that now, we have work to do.", Ender responded. "Very well then.", Meiphysto says and then uses his powers to remove Ender's conscious from his body, and place it into the snake's brain. Ender slithers away, while Meiphysto grabs his body and takes it back to the Under-Lair.

          Ender slithers on for years until he reaches a watch station where a dish satellite is set-up. Ender enters the watch station and approaches the beings inside. Ender then says, "Hello Amei and Esmo."

         Amei and Esmo look and see Ender on the table. Esmo says, "You had us worried that we have been compromised. Can't be sneaking up on us like that."

         "Well have your guards up next time, because this isn't the first time I have done this and if I can do it, you know who else can do it. Understood?", Ender says sternly. "Yes Sir.", Esmo and Amei both say. "Now what intel do you have for me on Khan?", Ender asks. Amei answers, "Well it seems someone has gave Oliver the tip that you may be arriving to talk with Khan, and this was mentioned to Agalhoff by Khan's brother, Steff, during an argument over their sister Kalimah for secretly mating with both of them and having their babies."

        "Oh yuck! Of course incest would be something they resort to, just to repopulate.", Ender comments. "Oh that's not even the half of it. After that tip being mentioned, Agalhoff had a talk with Oliver about his son Khan, and Oliver confirmed that you were coming to talk with his son. Now Agalhoff  has distrust Khan since that news, and Khan desperately wants his father's approval again.", Esmo mentioned. "Oh, well just when I thought my slip up in not noticing who may have been watching me talk with Meiphysto, had ruined my plans, it actually just made it a little more easier. Reach out to Meiphysto and ask him if he is leading those creatures down this way yet.", Ender says. "Well actually Meiphysto had sent a message in advance, stating that the creatures have bred more of their kind in large numbers and he trained them. He's leading them down in this direction now.", Amei says. "Wonderful! Meiphysto always a step ahead. What would I do without him? I shall travel onward to the garden. I'm sure Oliver has received word of their presence by now and warned his devoted followers.", Ender says. Amei asks, "What will you do once you get there?"

         "I will tell Khan how he can win his father's approval back by giving him a plan, using a fire barrier to handle the battle that will soon come their way.", Ender explains and then gets ready to leave, but stops when he notices an owl sitting on a beam in the ceiling. "Have any of you noticed this owl before?", Ender asks. Esmo and Amei turn to look in the direction he is looking. Esmo says, "No we haven't."

        "Crap! We've been compromised, kill it!", Ender commands. The owl starts to fly around. Amei tries to knock it down using the air, but ends up blowing a hole through the ceiling. The owl escapes through the hole and flies away. Ender then says, "Well that's just great. Now you guys need to relocate. Dismantle the satellite and find another location while I travel the rest of the way to the garden."

        "Yes sir Ender!", Esmo and Amei both say. Ender then slithers the rest of the way to the garden, and after days go by he finally reaches the garden. He sees Khan talking with his brother, Steff, with a group of men standing at attention. Ender listens in closely to their conversation; "What brings you Steff, at a time where I am training my fighters for the battle?", Khan asks. Steff responds, "Father has sent me to tell that you have to give your fighters a breather so they can replenish their energy for the actual battle."
         Khan says to Steff, "Very well then.", and then turns to his fighters, "Take a breather with the rest of the fighters, and restore your energy for the battle."

       The men leave off and Khan stays behind and continues to train. A young man turns around from the group of men and says to Khan, "Are you coming father?"

       "I'll be there in a little, Phabio. Don't worry yourself about me. Continue on with the other fighters.", Khan demands. Phabio says, "Yes father."

        "Ah, so that's his son, interesting.", Ender says to himself, while watching Phabio leave off with the men. Ender then hears Steff say to Khan, "You should rest too brother. I'm pretty sure you don't want to be tired while battling and get yourself killed."

        "I will continue on training Steff. I will never get tired. I need to be at my best for this battle.", Khan states. "Why do you feel the need to be at your best? Its not like you will be anymore prepared for the battle than anybody else.", Steff says arrogantly. Khan walks up to his brother and strongly says, "Listen Steff. I need to be at my best for this battle, to make my father trust me again, because ever since you've told him that the Supreme looked at me when he said don't trust the snake, my father looks at me in shame and distrust. Now, leave me to my training."
        Steff tenses up and says, "You won't gain his trust back by continuing to train and tire yourself out before the battle like an idiot."

        "Like I said before, I will continue to train, and I won't get tired. Now, I'll say to you again Steff, leave me to my training.", Khan says angrily. "If you want to fight me right now brother, we can do so.", Steff responds back angrily. "Please, like I would fight you now while we got a battle already coming. I'll fight you when its over.", Khan states. Steff nods his head and leaves as Khan continues on training. "Ah, a verbal brotherly quarrel to confirm my intel.", Ender says to himself and slithers his way up to Khan and talks with him. Khan responds negatively realizing its Ender and tries to kill him with his spear. Ender begs Khan to hear him out, but Khan insists are not letting him speak because of the trouble he has brought upon his family tribe. Ender quickly says to him, "That was not my intentions when I created those beings. I was just trying to create beings like you and the others but it did not turn out well. I ended up creating beings that act more on instinct rather then intellect. They were supposed to be my new generation of beings, and my plans with them was to populate a region, while you and the other beings apart of Oliver's new generation, populate this region. That way I can have influence over part of Cor just like Oliver."

        "You want influence over part of Cor to keep me and the others who are for Oliver from populating the entire planet. I also believe that you were planning to make your beings worship you, which would of conflicted with us beings who are for the Supreme. There was bound to be a physical conflict, if not now, then later on in the future. You can not fool me Ender.", Khan says angrily while getting ready to stab Ender with his spear. "Wait! I can tell you how to defeat them, but only if you spare my life.", Ender mentions. "We can take them on without your help.", Khan states. "Indeed you can, but without my help, you will all sacrifice a great number of your kind than you would with my help. I assume you can use the idea sense you want to make your father trust you again.", Ender says in a hurry. Khan hearing that calms down and demands to know what reason Ender has for trusting him. Ender explains that he is obligated to help fix a problem he caused. Khan agrees but traps Ender stating that he will never get the chance to do it again because he will personally turn him over to Oliver himself. Ender says, "Wait! What about the deal of me telling you how to defeat the beings I created in exchange for sparing me?"

         "Oh I am sparing you. I'm sparing you your life like you asked. You will tell me how to defeat those beings or I will kill you like I already was about to earlier. Basically, I am accepting your deal, but in my own way. Get it?", Khan firmly states. "Got it.", Ender responds sadly. Khan smiles and says, "Good. Now I suggest you start talking. We don't have long before this battle starts."

         Ender explains to him the plan and Khan sets the basket he trapped Ender in on the ground. Khan leaves off to go battle, while Ender sits in the basket. Meiphysto coming from behind a tree, says, "Well seems like that didn't go as expected."

         "Meiphysto! Man am I glad to see you. Get me out of this thing will ya.", Ender says excitingly. "Will do.", Meiphysto says while transferring his conscious to a bird so he can fly. Meiphysto then says, "Let's get going, those creatures will be here soon."

         They both fly all the way back to the new watch station that Amei and Esmo had set-up, a little more further from the garden this time, up the river. "That was a risky trip.", Ender exclaims. "Nope! Oliver's servants would be too busy watching over that battle to make sure his little social project stays in operation, to worry about us.", Meiphysto explains. "That's true. Let's watch in on that battle.", Ender says. They both enter the watch station and watch the events of the battle unfold. Khan and his men have already took action in started the fire barrier, and the unexpected wind blows it towards the garden, engulfing it in flames. Ender says, "What in world? Where did that random gust of wind come from?"

         "Probably just a coincidence.", Esmo responds. "I highly doubt that.", Ender states. They continue watching on seeing that the fire was put out, and that Steff's son, Lellius has been burnt to death by the fire. Khan mentions that he got the idea from Ender, and Steff then starts to fight Khan. They see Khan knock his brother, Steff, down a cliff, killing him. Agalhoff catches up and sees his son Steff, dead. Ender watching this, says, "That's right Agalhoff, look at what Oliver has brought upon your family, a brotherly quarrel that ended with the death of one of your sons. I hope you feel like you made the right choice."

        "That's if he even remembers.", Meiphysto mentions. Ender agrees and they continue to watch. Agalhoff had called on Oliver for assistance. Oliver talks with them, and Ender listens closely to Oliver talking with Khan. Oliver gives Khan an overbearing punishment, and Khan begs for a lesser punishment from Oliver if he presents Ender the snake, to him. Ender laughs as he watches, for his conscious no longer lies within the snakes mind. Khan presents the snake to Oliver and demand it to speak but it doesn't after a few more attempts. "Quick, help me send a message to Oliver, Meiphysto!", Ender says in a hurry. Meiphysto helps send Ender's telepathic message stating, "Of course that's not me. I had my consciousness transferred out of the snake while everyone else was fighting against the creatures I made. I will never let myself be caught by you, Oliver. You're not going to get rid of me that easy. The war is destined to happened between me and you."

         "Oh please! I make my own destiny, Ender. So long as I live, the war won't happen anytime soon.", Oliver states. "We will see Oliver. We will see.", Ender states while Meisphysto ends the telepathic transfer. Meiphysto then says, "He will send people in this direction immediately. I felt him tracing the radio-waves. We need to go now!"

         Ender, Esmo, and Amei agree and they all leave out to the Under-Lair. Ender says to Esmo and Amei, "I need you guys to stay behind and hide somewhere so that you can make sure they don't find our satellite and take it."

        Esmo and Amei both agree and split off to go hide. Ender and Meiphysto make their way back to the Under-Lair by flying. They lay low in Ender's castle for some days until Esmo and Amei end up coming back with terrible news. Esmo tells Ender that they have lost their only satellite to some of the Arch Squad members while encountering one of the people from Agalhoff's family tribe, traveling NorthWest, along the river. Ender immediately knew that they were heading to the other areas with very good vegetation and told Esmo and Amei to go cause a rain storm in the area. Esmo and Amei left to proceed on with the mission. Ender tells Meiphysto to help him pay one last visit to the garden area to see how things are going there. They fly to the garden during the night to avoid being seen, and hide in some trees distant from the garden. Meiphysto transfers his conscious into a snake again, and Ender slithers his way up into a tree where Khan happened to be sitting near. Ender talks with Khan, but Khan is only interested in killing Ender for he blames him for his punishment and the increased tension with his brother that lead to him killing Steff in a fight. Ender takes up responsibility for giving Khan that planned but made note that Oliver had something to do with the wind that caused the fire to go out of control. Khan was unsatisfied by that response of Ender blaming Oliver for the wind. Ender stated that he knows they praise Oliver as an all good and knowing great one, but he is not what he seems. Khan made note that all Oliver ever did was help them while Ender disrupted things by convincing his mother to eat the fruit they were not supposed to eat, causing confrontation between his parents, and giving him a plan that went out of control causing him to receive the punishment of a lifetime that his men and son, also have to bear.

         Ender mentioned that he was not the one that caused Khan's father to have distrust in him like Oliver did, by bringing up the idea that Khan will eventually talk to Ender, during his visit to their tribe, and it getting released during Khan's argument with Steff over Kalimah. Khan agrees but also mentions that Oliver was right that he would talk with Ender eventually, as they did before the war. Ender states that he is not dismissing some of the problems he has caused Khan's family, he also states that the problems he caused were on the outside, while Oliver caused the mental struggles within his family. Ender then goes into detail about how Oliver has influenced a negative mindset into his father and brother causing problems between his parents, and problems between him and his father and brother. Also how he is under his brother, Aquailis, watch. Khan asked Ender how does he know all of that, and Ender said that he had some people spying on them the whole time. Khan was very unsatisfied with that answer, and tried to throw a rock at Ender, but Ender escapes to another tree. Ender then sees Khan's younger brother, Aquailis, whip Khan in the face and steps on his chest.

          Ender slithers off, saying to himself, "Khan may be angry with me, but the abuse he is receiving just may be useful to my plans of disrupting Oliver's ideal world project, once and for all. Just you wait Oliver, I'm not finished with Khan just yet."

Eden's Reconstruction

          After Adameth and his group leaves the garden to hunt for new vegetation, Durgrah commands Khan and his crew to gather resources and rebuild the shelters of the garden. Promisithios came down to offer some prepared meals from the Supreme's Kingdom, until they were self-sustainable again. While he was there, he would spend most of his time talking with Durgrah. The two would share intimate moments with each other for some time and come to love each other. Khan and his crew would later come to be treated as the slaves of the tribe, out of hatred, with most of that hatred directed towards Khan, and the hatred of his crew as a symptom of the tribes hatred for Khan. Khan and his crew would often be mistreated and disrespected. Durgrah issued that they only get the left overs of the food brought by Promisithios, basically starving them as they would only get scraps of cooked vegetation to eat. The weight of their punishment would often be lightened up by Harmona sneaking some fresh meals and water to them. Harmona would often talk to Khan to see how he was holding up. Khan would share his feelings with Harmona, and later start developing feelings for her. Harmona on the other hand, felt only love for Aqualis and was in no way aware of Khan's love for her.

         Aqualis really wanted nothing to do with Khan, but he was left in charge of keeping an eye on Khan and his crew, by Durgrah. This made Aqualis and his crew, hate Khan and his group even more because they were burdened with policing them. Aqaulis often complained to Durgrah about her orders, but she insisted that him and his crew are the only ones best for the job, and will not change her mind. Aqualis just ended up accepting her response and just direct his anger towards Khan and his group. Aqualis was also harsh with his anger, for he started the whipping punishment upon Khan and his crew. Any members of Khan's crew who got out of line or messed up a job, would get whipped. Khan would receive the most severe of whipping if he ever messed up or got out of line, by Aqualis himself. Harmona would try to convince Aqualis to not be so hard on Khan and his crew. This prevented Aqualis from getting more deadly with his punishments, but did not lessen the brutality of it. Harmona told Khan why Aqualis was being so brutal, and that she is trying to get him to stray from using severe punishment. This made Khan really dislike Aqualis and Durgrah, for making such a punishment more overbearing then it already was.

         Ender once again in the form of a snake, showed up one night to talk to Khan. Ender got Khan's attention, but not the good kind of attention. Khan wanted to kill Ender, for he blamed him for ruining his life. Ender slithered up into a high tree and asked, "Why do hate me Khan?"

         "Because you're the reason why I am suffering these punishments! Listening to you was a big mistake!", Khan responded. Ender then said, "Listening to me is what helped you guys fight off those creatures with barely any lives lost."

         Khan then states, "You're the reason those creatures exist. Your the one who gave me the idea to start that bonfire, which went out of control by the wind and burned down the garden and killed my brother's only son. My brother and I had our issues, but you made it worst with your plan that spiraled out of control."

         "I understand where your anger comes from Khan. I get its my fault for trying to create beings similar to you and the tribe, and ended up creating savage creatures. I tried to make up for it by offering that plan to you, in hopes that you guys would understand that I am not your enemy.", Ender states. "And who is? The Supreme?", Khan questions. "I know you all praise the Supreme as some great being who does no wrong, but I can assure he is not. He was the one who caused the wind.", Ender states. Khan then says, "Of course you would blame the Supreme for that. You want us to hate him, instead of hating you. The Supreme has done nothing to disrupt our well being; he helped us live and taught us things that would be good for us to know. You on the other hand, has done nothing but disrupt our trust in the Supreme which led to suffering. My mother, encouraged by you, ate the forbidden fruit and convinced my father to eat it as well, which led to mental suffering in their minds from the cluttered fake memories. They were scolded by the Supreme, and my mother fell out of trust in him, and felt disconnected from my father, causing them to have arguments. We had to prepare for a war against some creatures which would of never happen if it wasn't for you."

          "Am I the one who accused you of eventually talking to me, which got exposed to your father during your argument with Steff, and made him distrust you?", Ender questioningly mentions. "That may have not been you, but the Supreme was right. I would eventually talk to you, which have came to be the biggest mistake I have ever made. Now, stop trying to put the blame on the Supreme for your wrongdoings.", Khan states. "I'm not blaming the Supreme for what I have done, I am simply trying to help you understand that the Supreme has caused some problems in your family's relationship with you and your group. The problems I have caused your family were outside events, the problems he had caused your family were mental. I did not make Steff think he was better than you because the Supreme did not like your display of curiosity when you first met him. Therefore, Steff thinking less of you, which came out during your argument over Kalimah, bringing to light, in front of the whole family, that the Supreme stated you would eventually talk to me. Your father had talked with the Supreme and he confirmed your father's suspicion. That is why your father didn't trust you anymore, because of the Supreme. As for my plan to you, which you planned to use to regain your father's trust in you; it was foiled by the Supreme because he found out about it. That's how he knew I was coming to talk to you in the first place. That's why he said don't trust me, because he did not want me helping your tribe survive those creatures, and in return your tribe building some trust in me. Also he is the one who assigned the blame of the destruction onto you and wanted everyone to shame you for doing so, which is why your suffering at the hands of your sister Durgrah and your brother Aqualis, today.", Ender explains. "How do you know all this?", Khan questions angrily. "I had some of my people sneak and give me information about your tribe and your Supreme, and I have been watching you guys for some time.", Ender responds. "So you just sit back and just watch and get told about your chaos unfolding!?", Khan angrily questions while picking up a rock to throw at Ender. Ender slithers away before he can get hit by the rock. "Hey!", someone screams from a distance behind Khan. Khan turns around to see Aqualis storming up to him.

          Aqualis swings his whip in hand, at Khan; lashing Khan in the face. Khan falls on the ground, and Aqualis steps on his chest and seriously asks, "Who or what were you throwing a rock at?"

         "The snake! He tried to come back and play on my curiosity!", Khan cries out. "So you talked to the snake, giving him room to attempt to play on your curiosity, instead of just throwing the rock at him in the first place.", Aqualis states, then shakes his head and says, "Khan. Khan. Khan. When will you learn?", then he knocks Khan unconscious with a punch to the face. The day comes in as Khan wakes from his unconscious state by Harmona wiping his face with some cold water. Khan looking up at Harmona, smiles. She asks, "What happened last night Khan? Why do you have a black eye?"

         "Aqualis came to me last night because he saw me throwing a rock at Ender the snake. Aqualis whipped me and asked me why I was throwing a rock, and I told him Ender the snake was trying to play on my curiosity so I threw a rock at it, but he didn't like my response and punched me unconscious.", Khan responds. "That's horrible! I'm sorry he did that to you.", Harmona says while helping Khan stand up. Khan stares into her eyes, and she stares back. Khan hurries and kisses her. Harmona in shock says, "Khan, I'm flattered but my heart belongs to Aqualis. I just love you as a brother is all."

          Khan upset, gets angry and says, "What do you mean your heart belongs to Aqualis? You have been talking with me, asking me how I'm doing and caring for me for longest, making me fall in love with you, and you tell me none that was because you feel the same?"

         Harmona getting angry now, says, "I was only doing those things because your my family and I didn't want to see you and your group suffer from the added abuse to yall punishment, that Durgrah and Aqualis was bestowing unto yall. I talked with you more because you're the brother who use to take care of me and have me adventure with you like Steff. I was never trying to make you fall in love with me, just easing some hardship on a sibling who I use to look up to."

         "Oh please! You're a tease you whore!", Khan yells. "Is that what you think of me?!", Harmona questions angrily. "Yes I think that of you, because you are!", Khan responds. "Then I hope you like being alone and starving then, because you won't have to worry about me so-called teasing you ever again!", Harmona states, and walks away. Khan sits on a log and tears up over the fact that she does not love him like he loves her. Times goes on, and Durgrah eventually becomes pregnant by Promisithios. Which he tells her that him impregnating her was a crime that he will have to pay for when the Supreme finds out. Promisithios tells her that he will go serve his time for his crime before his baby is born. Durgrah sadly agrees to let him go serve his time, and goes to her mother Evena, for help in dealing with her pregnancy. A few days later, Kalimah, Artima, Heavinus, Urca, Etnu, and the rest of the migrating tribe, arrive back to the garden with crops to grow. Evena, Durgrah, Harmona, and Aqualis approaches them. Evena looking around, wondering where Adameth is, asks Kalimah what happened to him. Kalimah tells her mother about the river and the storm that washed him down streamed, and how he yelled out for her to continue on without him. Evena understood and mourned her love being gone silently while she helped gather the crops. Kalimah notices Durgrah is pregnant and asks her about the pregnancy. Durgrah tells her everything as the rest of the tribe comes over to gather the resources. Everyone celebrates at night, while Evena sat alone in her shelter mourning her lost lover.

Northwest Migration

           Adameth with everyone's attention focused on him, he says, "I shall now pick who will travel with me northwest, to gather resources. I want Kalimah and her group of women, Heavinus, and part of Steff's group of men, to come with me to gather resources. I will leave Aqualis to watch over Khan and his men, to make sure they rebuild our shelters; and Aqualis will have assistance from some of Steff's men. Durgrah and her group of women can stay behind and watch over Khan and his men, as well. Aqualis and Heavinus, split up Steff's men evenly among yourselves."
          Aqualis and Heavinus meet-up with each other to split Steff's men among themselves. They split up his men and one extra man is left. "I think you should get the extra man, Heavinus.", Aqaulis said. "Why do you think that brother?", Heavinus asks. "Well you may need the an extra man for that journey, especially while those creatures are lurking around. I got extra help from Durgrah and her group of women, so I won't really need the extra man.", Aqualis explains. "Good point brother. I'll take the extra man.", Heavinus said.
         Adameth approaches Evena and asks, "What would you like to do my darling?"
        Evena replies, "I would like stay here until you get back my love."
        "Very well then. I shall see you later.", Adameth states while giving Evena a hug and kiss. Artima walking up to Harmona, says, "This is great sister. I'm going with Kalimah and her group of women to gather resources."
       "I bet it is sister.",  Harmona agrees. "Well, I will see you later Harmona.", Artima says. "See you later Artima.", Harmona says back to her. Harmona then gets hugged from behind by her son and daughter. "Urca and Etnu.", she says with surprise. "We have been chosen to go with grandfather Adameth to gather resources.", Etnu mentions to Harmona. "That is great for you two. I hope you two stay safe while you travel, and look out for one another.", Harmona states. "Mother we battled those creatures and held our own, and we can hold our own again.", Urca states. "Well just look out for each other for me and your father, who the both of you need to talk to before you go off with your grandfather.", Harmona states. Etnu and Urca both agree and go tell their father Aqualis that they're traveling with their grandfather. Aqualis gives them hugs and they then leave. Adameth leaves followed by Kalimah and her group of women, and Heavinus and his group of men. Artima and Urca are with Kalimah's group, and Etnu is with Heavinus's group.
         Adameth leading the way, they travel along side of a river. Passing through trees a distinct sound of leaving cracking behind. Adameth held up his spear to signal for everyone to stop. The sound continued on. Adameth looked around real fast and a Lion leaps and tackles him off his horse. Adameth holding the spear in the lions mouth, pushes the lions head back. The lion goes to scratch him, but is speared to death by Artima, Heavinus, and Kalimah. Kalimah asks, "Are you okay father?"
        "Yes.", Adameth responds while getting up from the ground, and hopping back on his horse. "Skin the lion for fur. We will need it for the night.", He says to Artima. "Yes father.", Artima responds and goes to skin the lion. Kalimah asks, "What now father?"
      "We continue riding on, but be aware of oncoming wild animal attacks and those creatures we fought.", Adameth explains. "Very well then.", Kalimah says. They continue riding their horses northwest. They then get cut off by the intersection of the river. Adameth looks across and sees good vegetable crops growing wildly. Kalimah asks, "How will we get over there?"
      "I have no idea. It seems as though the river travels on for a good while in the opposite direction, but that will take even longer and who knows when we will be able to get to the other side.", Adameth explains. "Well its getting dark, and we won't be able to see if we continue on any further.", Kalimah mentions. "Good thinking.", Adameth says to her, and then turns to face everyone, "We will set-up camp for the night. So let's gather the resources to prepare for the night."
       Everyone scattered across the area picking up branches, pulling weed vines, and picking leaves. Urca walking through some trees, collecting twigs for fire, stops and notices a satellite device in a small open field and two males next to it, talking. One man has a long black beard and bald head, while the other barely has any facial hair and short shiny black head hair. The man with the long black beard says to the shiny black hair man, "We need to dismantle this satellite before we are caught."
      The shiny black hair man responds, "Something tells me they already traced the signal. I don't understand why we have to dismantle these things once they're used. Why not just leave them after we had used them?"
      The long black bearded man says, "We have limited tech resources, and you want to leave a perfectly good satellite for the enemy to gain hold of. Just get to work before they find us."
     Urca steps out into the field, curious to know who the two males are and what is the device in the middle of the field. Urca calls out to the two males, "Hey!"; the two men turn their heads quickly and are shocked to see her. "I was wondering if you two are with the tribe, because I have never see you two around before? I also wanted to know what that thing is?", she asks as she points to the satellite. The two men talk quietly to each other, with the long bearded man asking the shiny black hair man, "Have you seen this lady before?"
     The shiny black hair man responds, "No I have not. She may be one of those people without powers. She could be trouble if we tell her anything. I say we kill her."
     The long bearded man says, "And make it known that people from Ender's side was here? Do you think before you say anything.", and the shiny black hair man stays silent, "Just pretend like we are on Oliver side and that we're taking care of private business for....what they call him?.....The Supreme.", the long black bearded man says. They both nod and look back at Urca. The shiny black hair man says to her, "We are helpers of the Supreme, and we are handling private matters right now. This thing was put here by people who work for Ender, and we must inspect this thing without any of the people from Adameth's tribe around. This thing could be dangerous, so we're going to have to ask you to....."; "If you two work for the Supreme, then where are your wings.", a voice interrupts. The men and Urca look around to figure out where the voice came from. "Above you.", the voice speaks again. They all look up and see two people, male and female, flying above their heads. "I knew it was only a matter of time before we were compromised. Told you we should of killed her.", the man with the shiny black hair says to the long black bearded man. The female and male land on the ground. The male has golden hair and blue eyes, and the female has long black hair. The male golden hair walks over to Urca and says, "Hi Urca. I am Miachae Lamothe. I am an actual helper of Oliver, as you can see by the wings and symbol on my armor.", he flexes his wings, "You need to head back to the others. Its already dark. We'll handle these guys."
       Urca nods and heads back to the rest of the tribe. She bumps into her brother Etnu, who has been looking for her. Urca tells him about the two men in the woods with a satellite, and how they were pretending to be helpers of Oliver, but actual helpers of Oliver showed up. Etnu was not sure whether to believe her or not, so he insisted they held back to the camp they built for the night. They head back to the camp and sleep until dawn. Adameth sits on the riverside shore looking across the river  at the abundance of edible crop on the other side. Adameth wonders how will they get over to the other side. Kalimah approaches him and asks, "Why don't you ask the supreme for assistance?"
       Adameth nods and calls out to the Supreme. The Supreme telepathically speaks with Adameth. The Supreme asks, "You have called out to me Adameth?"
       "Yes dear lord. We see enough crops across the water to feed our entire tribe, but we have no way to get across. Is there anyway you can help us?", Adameth explains. The Supreme responds, "Yes. Take six tree logs and tie them together with vines. Once you have finished, the structure you've built is known by my people as a raft. Have a few equal amount people gather on the raft and others push it into the water, but before you do that, be sure to collect strong long thick rounded branches for each person getting on the raft, and have them line up equally on different sides of the raft opposite of each other, facing towards the other side of the river. Then tell them to dip the long branches into the water and swipe backwards. This should help you get some people across the water to gather some crops and bring it back over."
       Adameth says, "Thanks my lord. That is all I needed you for."
      The Supreme responds, "Very well then. Have a safe journey across the river Adameth.", and his voice fades. Adameth tells everyone to gather six logs, lots of vines, and eight branches. They gather the vines, branches, and logs. They build a raft, and eight people gather onto the raft into lines on different sides of the raft, opposite of each other. The people on the raft is Adameth and seven other members of the tribe. The raft is pushed into the water by Kalimah, Artima, Heavinus, Urca, and Etnu. Adameth. Those on the raft, dip their branches in the water and stroke backwards. It takes them some hours to get across the big body of water, to the other side. They reach the other side and start piling crops onto the raft until they can't pile no more. They use the rest of the hours of the day to get the little bit of crops on the raft across to the others. They continue doing this for days and nights. On the last load of crops, the weather began to turn dark and cloudy. Rain poured making the currents within the river, run wild. The raft was pulled downstream by the current, away from the area. Kalimah, Heavinus, Artima, Urca, Etnu, and the rest of the tribe; all witnessed this and were unable to figure out what to do. Adameth called out to Kalimah, saying, "Kalimah! Get everyone to gather the crops and head back to the garden!"
     Kalimah in shock of him and the others being carried away by the current, just nods and continues to stand there watching them float away. Heavinus snaps Kalimah out her shock stasis, and gets her to focus on the task given by Adameth. Kalimah gets everyone to gather the crops into bundles so they can lug all of it back to the garden. They head southeast to the garden, but get thrown off course because of the dark rainy night. They head northeast in the wrong direction for an entire month. Realizing that they must be going the wrong way. Kalimah has everyone retrace their tracks. They run into crops they have not recognize before and decide to stop to eat them and restock up on fresh crops, then continue their journey, retracing their steps. They eventually reach the end of their tracks noticing their old tracks coming from a different direction, then continue west until they reach the river they traveled along when Adameth was with them. They use the river to make their way back to the garden. Once they have arrived, they are greeted by everyone except Khan and his men. Evena asks Kalimah about Adameth and the other missing people. Kalimah tells her that Adameth and the others were taken away by the current of a river on the raft they built. Evena sadden by such news, holds back her tears and helps with the crops. Kalimah reunites herself with Durgrah, and notices she is pregnant. Kalimah in shock asks, "You're with child."
     Durgrah smiles and nods her head. Kalimah gives her a gentle hug and says, "Great for you. Now you will have a child of your own."
    Everyone rejoices for the night, but Evena stays inside her shelter and cries while looking up at the stars in the sky, wondering if she will ever see Adameth ever again.

Down Times

          A burnt garden in the scene. A father and his son lying dead side by side. Two mothers crying at the lost of their sons. A brother at fault. Family surround the dead relatives and mourn.
          Evena the mother of mothers, goes over to her son Khan, and smacks him repeatedly. "How could you do that to your brother?!", she screams. "I wasn't trying to kill him, mom.", Khan states. Evena smacks him again. "What were you thinking, listening to Ender?!", she screamed again. Khan just sighs and says, "I don't know?"
         Evena with tears in her face, attempts to smack her son again, but stops herself as she remembers when she too listened to Ender without a train of thought as to why she did. She lowers her hand and walks away from Khan. Evena walks up to Adameth and asks him, "What do we do now?"
         Adameth turns to face her and sadly says, "I have no idea."; Evena responds, "Shall we call upon the Supreme?"
         Adameth nods his head slowly, and then walks away from the crowd. He then shouts to the top of his lungs, "SUPREME!!!!!!!!!"; and thunder roars from the sky. Down comes the Supreme and a group of noble super beings with him. The Supreme approaches Adameth and asks, "Why have you called upon me Adameth?"
          "My lord, we have lost our garden and shelters; and I have lost a son as well as a grandson.", Adameth explains. "Dear goodness! Which of your sons and grandsons have you lost?", the Supreme asks. "My lord, my son Steff, and grandson Lellius, who is also Steff's son, are dead.", Adameth responds. "What happened during the war Adameth?", the Supreme asks with shock in his eyes. "We were getting ready to battle the creatures until my son Khan and the group of men he was leading started a bonfire that the wind blew towards the garden. I sent Steff and his men to go get water from the river before the wind blew the fire towards the garden. Unfortunately, Steff's son was on the way back to the battle ground and got engulfed in the flames. Steff went to get an explanation from Khan when he went off chasing the creatures with his men. Khan came back and stated that the bonfire was Ender's idea. Steff got mad at Khan and started fighting him so Khan tried to ride away on his horse, but Steff chased him, and Khan kicked him down a steep hill.", Adameth explains with shame. The Supreme with anger in his eyes, says, "Khan."; then he says to Adameth, "Do not blame yourself for this Adameth. Khan listening to Ender was bound to happen. As for the loved ones lost, I will place their bodies in my kingdom, for Steff and Lellius were devoted followers to you and me. They have sacrificed a legacy for a greater cause, and shall receive a special ceremony in honor of their sacrifice."
           "Thank you my lord.", Adameth responds. "Do not thank me just yet. I have to tell you where you can obtain more vegetation to regrow your garden. If you head northwest with a group, you can gather some vegetation from other gardens. Some people can stay behind and rebuild the shelters. I say you leave the rebuilding for those who helped create the bonfire that caused this incident.", the Supreme states. "Yes my lord.", Adameth responds. Evena walks up to Adameth's side, while looking down with shame, and says, "Greetings my lord."
           "Do not feel ashamed Evena. I know you no longer believe the lies Ender has told you.", the Supreme states. Evena looks up at the Supreme and says, "My lord, I have to ask. Is the death of my son Steff and my easily corrupted son Khan, a punishment you bestowed onto me for my mind going astray from your ways?"
          "No Evena. This is the work of my nemesis Ender interfering with my plans again. He will stop at nothing to bring back the chaos that once overruled our generation. I'll tell you, when I find him, I will finish him off once and for all.", the Supreme states. "Understood my lord.", Evena responds. The Supreme then says aloud, "Bring forth Steff's and Lellius's bodies."
         Kalimah and Durgrah slide Steff's and Lellius's bodies to the Supreme. The Supreme says, "Gather around my helpers and everyone else. Let's give praise to Steff and Lellius for the sacrifice of their legacy for the rest of the family's survival."
        They all gather round. One of the Supreme's noble helpers, Promisithios, accidentally bumps into Durgrah. Promisithios then replies, "Sorry about that."
         Durgrah responds, "Oh, that's okay."; and Promisithios responds, "My name is Promisithios by the way."
        Durgrah smiles a little and says, "My name is Durgrah."
        "Sorry for the lost of your relatives.", Promisithios mentions. "Thanks.", Durgrah responds while dropping her head in sadness. The Supreme then says to everyone, "Let's bow our heads and close our eyes and have a moment of silence to remember these fine young men for their great sacrifice in the war. Everyone hold hands and let us say out loud, that Steff and Lellius shall be remembered forever."
        Durgrah with her head bowed and eyes closed, immediately grabs Promisithios's hand, then Kalimah's. Everyone else starts to hold hands and bow their heads with their eyes close and says, "Steff and Lellius shall be remembered forever!"
        The Supreme then says, "Wonderful. Now as for you Khan."; Khan looks up at the Supreme, and everyone else focuses their attention on the two. The Supreme continues, "Since you are the one who committed the biggest act of disobedience by listening to Ender and starting that bonfire, you shall be held responsible for the destruction of the garden and shelters, as well as the death of Lellius. You are already responsible for the death of Steff, as you may already know. Therefore, you shall be punished. You will no longer be able to grow healthy crops. Every time you grow crops they will die. Everyone shall view you as a horrible person to look at, and shame you to the point of discrimination. This shall be your punishment all the way until you die."
        Khan in shock says, "My lord, how am I supposed to endure such a punishment that great!? Show mercy my lord! I know I have shamed my family and you, but all I wanted was to make you and my father think positively of me for once. Let me make it up to you. I have Ender trapped inside a cage I made. I know how much you wanted to get rid of him, so I trapped him so I can please you by bringing your nemesis at your mercy."
        The Supreme responds, "If you have Ender trapped in a cage as you say, then bring him to me and I shall lighten up your punishment."
        "Yes my lord.", Khan exclaims and goes to retrieve Ender the snake inside the trap he made. Khan brings the trapped snake over and takes him out of the trap. "Here you go my lord.", Khan says. The Supreme looks at the snake and says, "Is this really you Ender?", but gets no response. "Talk now.", Khan said angrily to the snake. However, the snake remained silent. Then a telepathic message directly from Ender is heard by everyone saying, "Of course that's not me. I had my consciousness transferred out of the snake while everyone else was fighting against the creatures I made. I will never let myself be caught by you, Oliver. You're not going to get rid of me that easy. The war is destined to happened between me and you."
          "Oh please! I make my own destiny, Ender. So long as I live, the war won't happen anytime soon.", the Supreme states. "We will see Oliver. We will see.", Ender states while the sound of his voice fades away. The Supreme then looks at Khan and says, "Well it appears you don't have him."
         Khan drops to his knees and says, "My lord please....!"; "Enough! Your punishment is final Khan! You will suffer the consequences of your actions until the end of your life!", the Supreme angrily interrupts. Khan in realization that the Supreme is not going to lighten his punishment, just lowers his head in sorrow. The Supreme then says, "It is time for me and my assistants to go.", he looks over to Adameth, "Adameth you know what to do."
         Adameth nods, and the Supreme then says, "Okay my helpers, its time to go. Bring Steff's and Lellius's bodies with us."
         They prepare to leave, and Promisithios grabbing Lellius's body, says to Durgrah, "I will see you again."
         Durgrah smiles and nods. Promisithios smiles back at her, and then spreads his mechanical wings and flies into the air after the others. Adameth then says to everyone, "The Supreme told me we shall head west to gather some more crops to rebuild our garden. He also said those who assisted Khan on creating the dangerous bonfire, are responsible for rebuilding all of our shelters. Those who didn't assist Khan, some shall go with me to gather crops, and some shall stay behind and make sure that Khan and his men rebuild every shelter that we lost in that fire. Now let's get to work."
        Everyone starts to get ready to work, but Khan goes up to Adameth and says, "Father, you can't let the Supreme punish me like this. Please talk to him for me."
        Adameth looks at Khan angrily and punches him in the face. Khan nose starts to bleed. Adameth looks at him and says, "You are a disgrace. You bring shame to this family, and dare to embarrass me and your mother in front of the Supreme. You deserve every bit of suffering from your punishment. You're traitor Khan. You traded on your family for the enemy. Now, you live with the consequences.", then he walks off to get ready to gather some crops. Khan just sits on the ground, holding his nose, still in shock as to what his father has done.

The First War

          "I just want to say that none of us had taken another species life. However, if we do not kill these other beings created by Ender, then we will be killed by them. There is no way to know how many of them there are, but we shall continue to fight so long as it means saving ourselves, our homes, and the ones we love from these creatures.", Adameth states while giving a speech to his army. They yell, "Hooraaaa!!!"
          Adameth nods and says, "Okay then. Rest, but be armed, for they will approach us from the northern front when dawn comes."
         Adameth's army takes a breather from training while they wait for dawn to set in. Steff approaches Adameth and says, "Father me and my fighters are well prepared for this battle."
        "Nice to hear that Steff. All the fighters should be ready. Evena, Kalimah, and Durgrah have trained the female fighters well.", Adameth explains and then looks around; "Where is your brother Khan and his fighters?", he asks. Steff states, "He is still training them father."
         "Oh dear. He'll tire them out before we even start. Tell Khan to give his fighters a breather. We need all their energy for the fight. We don't have long to wait.", Adameth explains. Steff nods and goes to seek out his brother Khan and his fighters. Steff finds Khan in one section of the garden with his fighters, training. Steff approaches Khan and says aloud, "Brother!"
         Khan and his fighters stop what they are doing and turn their attention to Steff. Khan says to him, "What brings you Steff at a time where I am training my fighters for the battle?"
        Steff responds, "Father has sent me to tell that you have to give your fighters a breather so they can replenish their energy for the actual battle."
        Khan says to Steff, "Very well then.", and then turns to his fighters, "Take a breather with the rest of the fighters, and restore your energy for the battle."
        Khan's fighters leave the training area to go join the rest of the army. Khan stays behind and continues to train. Khan's son Phabio walking with the fighters, stops and looks back at his father and asks, "Are you coming father?"
        "I'll be there in a little Phabio. Don't worry yourself about me. Continue on with the other fighters.", Khan demands. Phabio says, "Yes father.", and continues on walking with the fighters. Steff looks at his brother and says, "You should rest too brother. I'm pretty sure you don't want to be tired while battling and get yourself killed."
         "I will continue on training Steff. I will never get tired. I need to be at my best for this battle.", Khan states. "Why do you feel the need to be at your best? Its not like you will be anymore prepared for the battle than anybody else.", Steff says arrogantly. Khan walks up to his brother and strongly says, "Listen Steff. I need to be at my best for this battle, to make my father trust me again, because ever since you've told him that the Supreme looked at me when he said don't trust the snake, my father looks at me in shame and distrust. Now, leave me to my training."
         Steff tenses up and says, "You won't gain his trust back by continuing to train and tire yourself out before the battle like an idiot."; "Like I said before, I will continue to train, and I won't get tired. Now, I'll say to you again Steff, leave me to my training.", Khan says angrily. "If you want to fight me right now brother, we can do so.", Steff responds back angrily. "Please, like I would fight you now while we got a battle already coming. I'll fight you when its over.", Khan states. Steff nods and leaves to go join up with the army. Khan goes back to training, but a voice says to him, "Wow, a sibling rivalry that's getting violent."
         Khan turns in the direction of the voice, and looks around. "Down here.", the voice says. Khan looks down and sees a snake. The snake says, "Yes I am the one who said that."
         Khan says, "How can you......? Wait you're Ender the talking snake."; Khan grabs his spear, and Ender screams, "Wait! Wait! Wait! I mean you no harm."; "I'm not scared of you Ender.", Khan says. "Just here me out is all I am asking and I'll be on my way.", Ender begs. "I don't have time for any of your tricks. I'm too busy preparing for this battle that you brought upon us.", Khan states. "That was not my intentions when I created those beings. I was just trying to create beings like you and the others but it did not turn out well. I ended up creating beings that act more on instinct rather then intellect. They were supposed to be my new generation of beings, and my plans with them was to populate a region, while you and the other beings apart of Oliver's new generation, populate this region. That way I can have influence over part of Cor just like Oliver.", Ender quickly states. "You want influence over part of Cor to keep me and the others who are for Oliver from populating the entire planet. I also believe that you were planning to make your beings worship you, which would of conflicted with us beings for the Supreme. There was bound to be a physical conflict, if not now, then later on in the future. You can not fool me Ender.", Khan says angrily while getting ready to stab Ender with his spear. "Wait! I can tell you how to defeat them, but only if you spare my life.", Ender mentions. "We can take them on without your help.", Khan states. "Indeed you can, but without my help, you will all sacrifice a great number of your kind than you would with my help. I assume you can use the idea sense you want to make your father trust you again.", Ender says in a hurry. Khan intrigued by what Ender had said, calms down and holds back on stabbing Ender. "Why would I trust someone like you who is an enemy of the Supreme?", Khan asks. "I can't make you trust me. That can only be done by you. I just came here to give the knowledge to help you guys fight off those beings, because they are my products that I have lost control over. Basically, I have caused a problem and thought I was obligated to fix it.", Ender explains. Khan lowers his spear, but keeps it in his hands ready to raise it again, and says, "Well you are obligated to fix the problem you have created. However, you will not be getting a chance to do something like this ever again because I'm going to keep you as a prisoner and hand you over to the Supreme as a gift. That way I can make the Supreme be satisfied with me again as well. Steff will no longer be more valued by the Supreme more than me when I give you to him."
          Khan grabs Ender and puts him into a basket and turns another basket upside down to tie it over the basket with Ender inside. Ender says, "Wait! What about the deal of me telling you how to defeat the beings I created in exchange for sparing me?"
          "Oh I am sparing you. I'm sparing you your life like you asked. You will tell me how to defeat those beings or I will kill you like I already was about to earlier. Basically, I am accepting your deal, but in my own way. Get it?", Khan firmly states. "Got it.", Ender responds sadly. Khan smiles and says, "Good. Now I suggest you start talking. We don't have long before this battle starts."
           Dawn sets in. Adameth's army is in battle stance with him, Evena, Steff, Khan, Kalimah, and Durgrah in front of the army. Behind them stands Heavinus, Aqualis, Artima, Harmona, Phabio, and Steff's son named Lellius. Behind them are the rest of the fighters. They hold their position as they wait for Ender's beings to arrive. Rumbling from the forest in the north, can be heard. Adameth gives a signal with his hand; then Steff, Khan, Kalimah and Durgrah turn to their fighters and yell, "Archers Ready!"
            The archers raise their bows upward. Adameth looks over to Evena, and nods his head at her. Evena, nods her head back at him. Adameth turns his attention back at forest. Hairy ape looking beings come running out of the forest in hordes. Adameth gives another hand signal; and Steff, Khan, Durgrah, and Kalimah all say, "Fire!"
             The archers fire arrows into the air. The arrows then fly down towards the ape-like beings. Groups of the ape-like beings get hit with the arrows and die. The ones that did not get hit trample over the dead ones and rush towards Adameth's army. Adameth gives the hand signals again. Kalimah, Durgrah, Steff, and Khan tell the archers to fire again. The archers fire their arrows. More of the ape-like beings get hit with the arrows, but still more continue to push forward, getting closer to the army. Khan gives a hand signal to his fighters. Half of Khan's fighters carrying bundles of tree branches and tree fibers from the garden run forward ahead of the army in the direction of the ape-like beings. Adameth witnessing this, turns to Khan and says, "Khan what are you doing? This was not part of the plan."
              Khan says to Adameth, "Don't worry father. I'm lowering their herd for us.", and yells to his archers, "Archers! Light your arrows and ready your bows!"
             The archers light their arrows on fire. They then raise their bows. Khan's fighters with the tree fibers and branches build a ground wall barrier with the bundles. Steff tells Khan, "Wait brother! There is too much wood and fibers to create a fire. It can spread...."; "FIRE!!!!", Khan yells to his archers not giving Steff time to finish his statement. Khan's archers fire their flaming arrows at the bundles. Khan's fighters who planted the bundles retreat back to the army.  Some of the ape-like beings reach the branch and fiber barrier, and then the arrows strike the bundles creating a bonfire towering five feet into the air. Khan then gives another signal to the fighters on horses. The Horse riders lead by Phabio, ride their horses out to the fire with torches. They ride around the fire barrier and set the grass on fire so the ape-like beings don't circle around the barrier. Phabio rides his horse back to his father. Phabio holds his hand out for his father, and Khan grabs hold of his son's hand. Phabio lifts his father up on the front of the horse, and hops off. Adameth tells Khan, "Khan, you have to stop that fire, or else it will.....", but before he could finish, Khan rides forward raising his spear in the air, signaling his fighters to move forward and fight. Adameth in shock that Khan left without listening to him, raises his spear to signal to the rest of the army to move forward to fight. The army moves forward to fight off the oncoming group of ape-like beings. Khan and his fighters start to stab the ape-like beings. The rest of Adameth's army joins the fight and starts to stab at the ape-like beings. Some of the ape-like beings retreat back to the forest in fear, while some stay in the battle, jumping through the fire, grabbing riders off their horses. Adameth now in possession of  horse, rides next to Steff and tells him, "I need you and your fighters to stop the fire. Its getting out of control. Go get water from the river with your fighters. Steff nods and raises his spear to guide his fighters back to the garden to obtain buckets. Steff and his fighters reach the garden. Steff says aloud, "Fighters! Grab buckets and head towards the river so we can put out the fire!"
          Steff's fighters grab buckets, including Lellius. Steff approaches Lellius and says to him, "Wait my son. Stay behind and fight alongside your mother's fighters."
          Lellius says, "Yes father.", and hops back on his horse and rides back to the fight. Steff then hops on his horse and says to his fighters, "To the river!"
          Steff's fighters follow him to the river. Meanwhile, the rest of Adameth's army fights on. They stab away with their spears at the ape-like beings jumping through the fire. They fight on until a gust a wind blowing South, pushes the flames of the fire towards the garden. Adameth quickly yells, "Everyone! Circle East and West around the fire!"
          Adameth's army quickly circles around the fire before it could engulf them in flames. Khan and his fighters chase down some of the retreating ape-like beings, while Adameth's army finishes off the rest that stayed to fight. Evena told Adameth, "Honey, look at the fire!"
           The fire reaches the garden and burns everything. Steff returns with his fighters and tells them to put out the fire. Steff then rides up to his father and says sadly, "Sorry father. We moved as fast as we could."
           Adameth says to him, "Don't trouble yourself. A gust of wind blew the fire. There was no way you would of made it in time. Khan is the main blame for this."
           One of Steff's fighters rides up to him and says, "Steff, you may want to see this."
           Steff rides with the fighter to see what the fighter wanted to show him. Steff drops his spear in shock at what the fighter has shown him. Lellius dying from severe burns to his flesh. Steff falls off his horse and runs over to his dying son. Steff calls out, "Kalimah! Kalimah!!!"
           Kalimah rushes over to see why Steff has called out her name, and sees Lellius dying. Kalimah tearing up, rushes to her son's aide saying, "No, no, no, no, no. Not my son."
           Adameth, Evena, Durgrah and the rest go over to see Lellius. Lellius looks at Steff and Kalimah and says, "Mom.... Dad...... I have failed you."
           "No son, no. You did not fail us.", Steff says to him while crying. Kalimah says to him while crying, "No baby, you did not fail us. You're going to be alright. Mommy will help you."
           Lellius says to Kalimah, "Mom..... I don't think you can help me this time.", and dies in her arms. Kalimah cuddles Lellius' head, and cries. Steff stands up with tears in his eyes. Steff looks around. He wipes the tears from his eyes, looks at his dad, and then looks at the forest. Adameth says, "Steff, I'm sorry your son is gone."
            Steff hops on his horse, and says, "Fighters! Follow me!"
            "Steff!", Adameth calls out, "Don't do something you will regret.", but Steff in anger rides off in the direction Khan and his fighters went. Steff's fighters follow behind him. Adameth hops on his horse and rides after them. In the forest, Khan and his fighters finish chasing away the retreating ape-like beings. Khan stops and so does his fighters. Khan laughing says, "We did it fighters. We've scare them off. I doubt they will be coming back anytime soon.", and his fighters cheer.
            Khan gets down off his horse. Steff eventually comes riding up with his fighters. Steff calls out, "Khan!", while getting off his horse. Khan sees Steff, and says with a smile, "Brother! Have you come to tell me father wants to congratulate me and my fighters on saving your butts?"
            Steff walking up to Khan angrily, says, "You're an idiot!", and pushes him to the ground, "That fire you started not only burned the entire garden, it killed my son!"
            Khan in shocked says, "What?"; "We tried to tell you that a fire that big would get out of control, but you wouldn't listen. Now, we have no shelters, and my son is dead!"
            Adameth arrives, and calls out, "Steff! Khan!"
            "Khan is right here father.", Steff says to him. Khan asks Adameth, "Is it true father? The fire has burned the garden and killed Lellius?"
            Adameth says to Khan in an angry tone, "Yes Khan. It burned the garden and killed Lellius."
            Khan says, "Oh no.", and they all return back to the garden area. Kalimah sees Khan with Adameth and Steff. She walks up to him in a hurry, and screams, "This is your fought!", and punches Khan right in the nose. "What ever could have compelled you to do something so stupid like start a fire that is susceptible to getting out of control to the point where it burns the garden, and kills my son?!", Kalimah questions Khan angrily. Everyone looks at Khan. Khan says, "I'm sorry. Ender gave me the idea, and....."; "You listened to him?!", Adameth asks angrily. Steff in shock says, "You got the idea from Ender, and went with it!"
              Steff presses his hands on the sides of his head and turns to walks away from Khan. Kalimah says to Khan, "Why would you ever listen to Ender, Khan?! Ender does not like us! We are followers of the Supreme, and Ender hates the Supreme! Did that ever not occur to you when Ender was telling you this idea?!"
               "No. I was trying to train so I can perform well in battle to impress my father and make him trust me again, and I guess Ender must of found out because he told me that making a fire would make those beings retreat so we can win the battle and I would impress my father enough to make him trust again and not look at me in shame like he has been doing before the battle.", Khan explains. "Wow Khan. Do you hear yourself right now?", Adameth exclaims, "You thought that an obvious devious plot by Ender was advice on how to win a battle that he brought upon us. You really thought that Ender would want to help you, let alone help us. That's stupid Khan! You knew not trust Ender from the very beginning, and yet you still did trust what he said."
              Khan says, "Father, I..."; "I believe you have done enough talking for today Khan. There is no way you can justify your actions.", Adameth states angrily. Khan turns away from everyone to walk away in shame, but he gets tackled by Steff. Steff starts punching Khan in the face repeatedly. Khan then flips his brother onto the ground, and starts punching him. Kalimah screams out, "Stop it you two!", but they both continue to fight. Steff pushes Khan off of him and then jumps on top of him and starts punching him in the face repeatedly again. Khan pushes Steff off of him, and quickly hops on his horse and rides away. Steff hops on his horse and rides after Khan. Adameth yells out, "Stop you two!", while getting on his horse to ride after them.
              Khan and Steff race alongside each other. Steff makes his horse bump into Khan's horse. Khan does the same with his horse. They continue bumping their horses all the way to a dangerously steep hill in the forest. Khan then kicks Steff, and Steff falls off his horse, down the hill, and falls full force into a  tree and then into a boulder protruding from the ground. It was no question that Steff was dead. Khan stops his horse in horror to see his brother fall into a tree and a boulder. Khan gets off his horse. Adameth arrives and hops off his horse. "Where's Steff?", he asks Khan. Khan doesn't respond, and continues to look down at his brother's dead body in horror. Adameth notices Khan's facial expression and looks down the hill and says, "Oh dear. What have you done Khan?"

Ender's Childhood-Present (First Person in American English)

          Come now, and let me tell you how my life began. I was boy growing up in a home with parents that were natural rebels themselves. They have taught me much about powers and how great they are. My parents told me that we should be free to explore our beautiful powers and know our limits. I waited for the day that I acquired my powers, which happened when I was at a park. I attempted to climb up a very large tree. I made sure my parents were not looking because they were not too fond of me climbing trees, which I really loved to do as a boy. I climbed up the tall tree and made it to a branch. I looked down and saw how high up I was. I was too scared to climb back down because I did not want to fall. My mom and dad saw me in the tree and ran over to tell me to get down. I told them, "I can't."
          They were not satisfied with that response. My dad said to me, "If you got yourself up there, then you can get yourself down."
          My mom looked over to him and said, "Larry! He could fall if he tried to get down by himself."
         "Susan, I am right here to catch him if he does.", my father said to my mom. I eventually stopped listening to their conversation when I heard cracking. It was the branch breaking off from the tree. I screamed, "Mom! Dad! Help!", but before they could do anything the branch broke and I fell and closed my eyes. However, I did not hit the ground. My father said, "Daniel, open your eyes."
          I opened my eyes and saw that I was hovering above the ground with fire shooting out of my hands. My parents were glad to see my powers had kicked in. I was seven when this happened. My parents put me on punishment for two days for climbing the tree, but the third day when I arrived from school I was off punishment and my parents put together a celebration for me obtaining my powers. My aunts and uncles were there, and my favorite cousin Gerald was there. Gerald was very kind to me and would always take me places. Gerald and my dad were cousins, and they practically treated each other like brothers. Sometimes I would spend the night over Gerald's house, but once he became a member of the Authority Of Cor around when I was ten years old, my dad and Gerald stopped talking. My father did not like the Authority Of Cor, because of how much they discriminated against the people who were of Craig's bloodline. My father was appalled at the idea of someone like Gerald joining those who bring about systematic discrimination to those apart of Craig's bloodline like both of them. Believe me hon when I tell you that I have notice the discrimination personally. When I was fourteen, the Authority were hunting someone who committed the so-called crime of unauthorized use of powers. All the person did was see how high he can build a mountain, but he was male and of Craig's bloodline and broke the law so the Authority couldn't find him, and assumed that just because I am of Craig's bloodline that it was me who did it. The authority tried to arrest me after school, but my parents were there waiting for me. They confronted the Authority, demanding a reason for arresting me. The Authority told them about the guy who used his powers inappropriately by creating a mountain.
          My dad told them I was not the guy, and that my powers allowed me to create and manipulate fire not rock. The Authority didn't believe him even though he showed my identification to them which you already know shows a person's super-abilities. They still did not accept the evidence, and my mother and father automatically knew the real reason for them trying to arrest me. The public fear of people of Craig's bloodline not following orders and getting away, so to calm the public down, the Authority needed to arrest someone of Craig's bloodline. They saw an opportunity with me, and went with it. My dad and mother on the other hand had a different idea in mind. They immediately started to fight the Authority physically to release me. The Authority let go of me to deal with my mom and dad. The Authority eventually subdued my parents and took them away. I was free from arrest because of a court order stating that my parents had corrupted me into being disobedient and non-compliant with the law. I knew it was an unjustified ruling. Gerald eventually found out what happened and decided to take care of me. On the other hand I had my own plans. The Authority's rules were too strict and allowed no freedom to explore our powers and were also prejudice against people of Craig's bloodline. I decided to seek justice for my mom and dad by releasing my story about the unethical arresting of my parents to the public. People understood my pain, and I eventually developed a group of friends; Agalhoff, Bangledesh, Diana, and Cythia my teen love. The Authority threatened to arrest me for stirring up controversy. Gerald would save me from being arrested, but wanted me to stop revealing the unethical arresting of my parents, and proving the Authority to be corrupt with power. Gerald told me that if I was to live under his roof and protection, then I need to stop. I decided to move out and live with my friends who live in an abandoned building. Gerald refused,  but I told him I don't need him and never will. Gerald let me go run off with my friends. I would still pay him visits to let him know how my life was going. Me living with my friends was great though. We embraced our powers. Agalhoff had the ability to make things combust in explosion by vibrating particles on an object which allowed the particles to expand. Cythia could pull electrical energy from anything. Cythia could pull electrical energy from the air and it would take the shape of a blade. Diana could manipulate air by circulating it into the center of a vortex and toss it in a direction she wanted it to go. It would be a lot of air that she can throw too. Bangledesh could absorb iron and turn his whole body into iron. He would also have to release some of the iron from his body because it would weigh him down and make it harder to move fast.
          My dear, me and my friends were a group of misfits. We had no place in society. Well I would of had a role to play, but not my friends. See that was the problem with the system that the Authority set-up. They made a system where everyone has a role to play with their powers to contribute to society, but there were people with powers that could not be used in a way to support society. Those whose powers were considered no good for the system were left out. The only way for them to get out of poverty was to join the Authority, but the Authority was not too accepting of everyone. On the other hand, those in poverty statistically were more capable of expressing happiness than those with a role in society. The ones with a role in the system, treated their roles like an inescapable prison, because you already know, once you were assigned a role, the Authority expected you to stay with that role for life. There was no exploring other options even if your powers make it possible for someone to take up another role. The Authority would not let anybody experiment with their powers to know what other things they can do with them. The people in poverty were more free than the people with a role. Basically the Authority created a system of poverty, discrimination, depression, and tyranny, yet they wondered why people didn't want to abide by their system even if it meant risking the uprising of someone becoming dictator of the planet. Still, the Authority were able to maintain some control over the planet because of all the poor people wanting to join the Authority. This caused the public to expand a system they hated. The Authority had massive influence and spread propaganda all over Cor from billboards to the schools. I eventually stopped attending school at the age seventeen. My friends did too because they hated the system as much as I did. We were poor and had to resort to petty thievery in order to eat. Our lives were great though. We were free to enjoy ourselves. Until, the time I was eighteen and testing the extreme limits to my powers. Our abandoned building was next to a hospital, and when I wanted to see how big I can make a fire from my hands in the ally between the Hospital and the abandoned building, I ended up setting the hospital on fire. A camera caught what happened on video, but even though it was an accident as my facial expression displayed, I knew I would be done for if the Authority came to the scene. I told my friends what happened and that I needed to get to the only person who could help clear my name, Gerald.
          We rushed to Gerald's house, but the Authority was quick to respond to what happened, and tracked me down because they sent the footage to all members of the Authority. I told my friends to wait outside Gerald's house. I knocked on his door hard. Gerald opened the door and I rushed inside and said, "Close the door!"
           Gerald asked me, "What's going on?"
           "The Authority is after. Didn't you get the footage?", I mentioned. Gerald said, "No, I'm off duty. Only the members on duty at the time will get a notification of any trouble somewhere; but what exactly did you do to make the Authority want to hunt you down?"
            "I was experimenting with my powers in ally and I released too much fire which ended up burning a hospital that was next door to me.", I told him. Gerald was shocked and said, "Daniel! Why would you even experiment with your powers without proper training from a school assistant? Also, why would you experiment with your powers at all, you know that's against the law?"
            "I know. I was curious and wanted to see how big of a fire I can make with my hands. I know what I did was not okay, but I never meant to burn down a hospital. You got to help me please! The Authority will never let this go until they catch me.", I cried. Gerald sighed and said, "Exactly Daniel. They will never let it go until they arrest you. I can't do nothing about your situation this time."
           I didn't believe he couldn't do anything bout the situation so I asked him, "You can't or you won't because your a man of the law?"
          "Daniel, I do wish I can do something to help you out of this, but this is way too big for me to handle. When you break a law and you're part of Craig's bloodline, the Authority will stop at nothing to take you away. Me defending you from them will only jeopardize my wife and son's safety. I can't risk my family for this situation Daniel. Your going to have to turn yourself in." he says. I was appalled with his response. I was going to say something back to him, but someone knocked on the door. Gerald looked out the eye-hole and opened it. It was the authority standing their to take me away. Gerald looked over to me, and then look away and said to the Authority, "Take him away."
           They tackled me and beat me down. I kicked and screamed, but they gained hold of me. I tried to struggle to get free as they dragged me out of his house. Gerald just stood at the door looking at them take me away onto a hovercraft, in shame. My friends were in hiding and watching the whole thing. I was scared for my life. I did not know what they would do to me.
          The hovercraft entered space, and they flew me all the way to the exile planet. It was a very long trip. They held me in a cell right along with some other prisoners. The other prisoners were not too fond of me because word got out that I burnt down a hospital. Soon as we were tossed onto the exile planet and the handcuffs broke off, the other prisoners beat me down. I had to fight to get away. I ran as fast as I could and lost them, but I became homeless living in a deserted area. Eventually some riders came along and saw me. They took me in under their wing. They taught me how to fight with my powers. After a few years, I became the leader by beating the president in fair battle. Apparently the riders followed a system that was similar to the exile planet's entire system. You would fight in tournaments to become king of the exile planet. Eventually I stepped up to the plate to become king. My fighting skills were good enough to help me rise in rank in a matter of two years. I earned the nickname, "Ender Victor", because I was notoriously known for putting an end to other fighters' victory streaks. I eventually met up with my friends from Cor, again. They told me they were brought to the exile planet two months after I was arrested. I asked them what were they arrested for. Agalhoff told me what Cythia did. She killed Gerald and his wife. I was completely unsatisfied with that answer. Agalhoff told me they were all in on it to seek revenge on Gerald for letting me get taken away by the Authority. Cythia was going to say something, but I put my hand up and shook my head. I did not want to hear them say anything else. I understand me and Gerald got off on the wrong foot, but I did not wish for my cousin to die for not saving me from the Authority that day. I walked away from them and never spoke to them again. I just continued on fighting to rise up to challenge the king for the throne after another two years. I won the fight and held position as king. My first order was that everyone was free to do as they please, just like they already were. We continued the fights as a tradition to gain the throne. I kept on ending people's victory streaks still living up to the name. It was great.
          Then he came along. You know who I'm talking about. Oliver exiled to the planet because he was abducting people and stealing their powers. Oliver got into the fighting competition and immediately started taking out top fighters; and in a matter of two years, he rose up in rank to challenge for the throne. Oliver and I had a great battle. Unfortunately, I lost to him. Oliver became king. I respected it. Oliver made me his right hand man. Oliver immediately ruled that everyone must do something productive with their powers or face punishment. Oliver allowed the battles to continued, but he formalized the tournaments and made it where you have to get a license to be a fighter. Tournaments were hosted by licensed hosts. You were not allowed to perform informal fights anymore. Oliver, then rallied the masses with a speech about taking over Cor and making the Authority pay for casting us onto a planet from our friends and family all because we wanted to be free. Oliver also stated we will make the Authority pay for the poverty, discrimination, depression and tyranny they put us through. He was saying all the things we wanted to hear to get us on board with invading Cor and taking down the Authority. I was on board all the way to us taking over the Authority's hover-crafts, flying to Cor and initiating war with the Authority. We fought well, and I believed Oliver was really for seeking justice for the people of the exile planet, but I later notice he had other intentions. Oliver created the Arch squad, and he wanted me to train them. I did, and the Arch Squad was mainly for filling out his wishes in secret. Oliver gained hold of the Authority's database on the people of Cor and people of the exile planet. I lead the Arch Squad. We gathered people that Oliver wanted. All he wanted them for was to take their powers from them and enhance himself. I eventually became unhappy with what he was doing and he took notice. Oliver began to distrust me. He started to use the Arch Squad behind my back. I did not notice until I saw them bring in Cythia. I asked why were they bringing in Cythia. They replied, "Oliver's orders."
          I went with them to see what they were going to do with her. They brought her to Oliver, and he killed her by absorbing all of the electricity from her body. I asked why did he just kill her, and he said, "She was a traitor. She gave up one of our bases' location to the Authority."
          I just accepted his answer, but he really got out of hand when he expanded the Arch Squad and enslaved half of Cor's population and half of the people who helped us win victory over the Authority. I was disgusted to see such an order he enacted. I was more so disgraced with myself for being apart of some devious plot to create another tyrannical rule without realizing it. I spoke with some fellow riders. They convinced to me to rebel against Oliver and become leader of Cor. I waited for the right moment to plot a rebellion against Oliver's reign. When he held a ceremony to introduce the two beings who will create a New Generation on Cor. I saw that it was Agalhoff and Diana held captive. Oliver sucked their memories out of their minds and cast it all over the solar system. Some of their memories in the form of energy fell down to Cor, and went into an apple tree. Oliver was aware of that. Oliver demanded everyone to bow. I told my fellow riders to not bow and remain standing. Oliver saw us and demanded us to bow, and we refuse. Some people, including you stood up as well. He ordered everyone else in the kingdom to attack us, including the Arch Squad. We took them all on, but Oliver put an end to our rebellion when he shocked us with a bolt of electricity from a crucifix staff. We fell down to Cor from the sky. We hid underground as you know because you were with us.
          You also know what happens next. My consciousness was transferred into a snake by Maephisto. I approached Diana and convinced her to eat from the apple tree that contained her memories and Agalhoff's memories. She convinced Agalhoff to eat from the tree. They both got pieces of their memories back, and Oliver found out. I had my friend who can transfer sounds telepathically, help me send a message to Oliver that we will have an all out massive war for control over Cor. Oliver said it would be a Time Of Devastation if that was to happen. This is how this feud started. I will continue to seek control of Cor, starting with his New Generation. I have already struck a score with Diana and Agalhoff. Now I'm going to speak with Khan.
