The abyssals are an immortal race of humanoid beings that originate from the center of the universe. They are able to manipulate space and transform at will. After having won a war against their greatest enemies,creatures of light called the Astrals,originating from the astral plane,who had the ability to manipulate time,peace and prosperity was achieved in the universe. However,after hundreds of thousands of years of having maintained peace in the universe,the four strongest abyssals known as the order of the four,are consumed with boredom and decide to bring a change in their immortal lives.
Previously,
On earth, The lunar observatory was a high tech lab that existed peacefully on the surface of the moon. Until one day,a strange operation took place where a cosmic entity, named Astrid,claiming to be an entity called "an abyssal" tore it to pieces using strange magic,in order to retrieve an artifact,killing everyone in the observatory and destroying all evidence. She then opened up a purple glowing portal and entered it...
Chapter 1 - Introductions.
Astrid arrives back at her home world,in the abyssal colony, located at the center of the universe, a colony of similar cosmic entities like her that existed inside a black hole. This region is perfect for such strange and powerful,but human looking,entities to exist.
This metropolis is vast,and is as dark looking as the void,other than several luminescent neon lights,massive towers,and strange looking abyssal folks walking in the distance
"you're late Astrid" a strange voice is heard from the distance.
She turns around and sees a large silhouette approaching her. It seems humanoid in shape,similar to her but instead of wearing bright purple,is wearing bright blue and has bright blue eyes,and instead of a giant staff,he is welding a weird sword. She decides to walk towards him.
"There you are,Ziel,the job is done. Where are the others?"
"at our usual spot of course" ziel smiles and then starts walking through the chaotic seeming metropolis. Astrid follows him. They stop in front of a building called "Soda heaven"
Inside the building,they saw a very small group of abyssal people with different neon colored outfits sitting inside,some were drinking and others talking while some just sat there quietly. they notice them enter,but take no action. The two of them walk to the east where two other Abyssals seem to be enjoying a drink,in a container with the words "COSMIC SODA" plastered on it. they all turn to look at them
"the order reunites!" a cheerful looking abyssal with bright yellow eyes named Eliza exclaims "Welcome back Astrid" a much intimidating looking abyssal named Cyphon said,seemingly sarcastically. they pointed to two chairs,the only ones left empty
"Thanks." she said,and sits next to Ziel. He takes a seat on his right,while she looks at her three friends,they look in her direction and start talking immediately.
The order of the four fists was created by Ziel,the most senior of the group,and Astrid , Eliza , and Cyphon were included due to their insane efforts in a war hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Ziel the leader,specialized in combat using swordplay techniques instead of magic. Cyphon was considered to be the second strongest and relied on trickery and stealth as his main weapon. Eliza was the tactician of the order and always kept a cool and cheerful attitude to make sure the order remained intact,and most of the time was the one planning the tactics in various battles. Astrid was the fourth and the only member of the order who was not a member at the time of the creation of the order. She specialized only in magic and was also nicknamed the magician by the other members at one point due to her prowess in magic.
"So about your mission,how did it go?" Cyphon decides to start the conversation. Astrid is glad she is back with her best friends. she smiles "Well,first of all I missed cosmic soda. strange that even after centuries upon centuries of chugging this stuff,it only takes a week to miss it" the rest of the order laughs and she is poured a glass. After a sip,she starts to elaborate how her mission went,telling every tiny detail she could remember. After all,time was a resource the Abyssals had too much of.
She even tells them how at one point everything went wrong,and she had to abandon stealth and had to resort to brute force. Hearing this,Cyphon laughs and tells her how he knew that her attempt at stealth would result in a major casualty,as it was his specialty,not hers. Although somewhat annoyed,Astrid laughs it off,she has known him for long,and knew that he meant no offense.
"So how did your missions go?" Astrid asked the group "if I remember correctly,you all went to earth for some boring scouting mission again? glad I chose the more exciting mission" Eliza waits for others to reply,but they all remain quiet until Ziel speaks.
"It wasn't all bad. We three got to hang out at the new base we established.'' Ziel said. "we had to stay there for a few days because the local inhabitants didn't know who we were..." Hearing this, Astrid rolls her eyes thinking about the ridiculousness of the situation,as she knew the so-called new base on planet earth was simply a house they had bought to pretend to be humans and live a normal life,away from their duties here at the abyssal colony. It sounded so immature,yet even she agreed that a change was necessary to eliminate boredom in their life.
