Senvoinian Legends #2: Abyss Tamer (Part 3)

(Meanwhile in the eastern seas on a small populated yet hostile island, Khoteku Magachi was dressing herself up in her original clothing as she revealed to have slept with her recent lover whom has come along with her on her pirate adventures.)

"Khoteku: ...Heh. Sleeping like a baby."
"???: Hey captain! You have a visitor!"
"Khoteku: Hm? So early in the morning..? I'm coming out!"

(As Khoteku grabbed her captain's hat and walked out of the hut into the bright sunlight, she was surprised to see Shibuto standing in front of her, the two technically never meeting but now has met face to face.)

"Khoteku: Whoa..! Wait, you're.. Shibuto, right?"
"Shibuto: That's right."
"Crew Member: This here young lad arrived on the island a while ago, but we don't know how he did so!"
"Khoteku: Well, how can I put this.. Shibuto is the son of Gaito, my brother."

(As the name Gaito shook the ones whom are awake, the pirate crew immediately bows and begs for forgiveness.)

"Pirate Crew: PLEASE FORGIVE US LORD SHIBUTO, WE GRACEFULLY ACCEPT YOUR PRESENCE FOR WE ARE NOT WORTHY OF YOU!"

(With a smiling chuckle, Shibuto then felt welcome as he and Khoteku managed to talk to one another about their many recent challenges that has happened as of late.)

"Khoteku: I heard about the many tremors and battles overseas back in Japan, but it's kind of why I'm out here living life as a pirate. I love my family but after everything I've went through with the Warlords, I don't want to be put in a scenario where I'm forced to fight family once again. You understand that, right nephew?"
"Shibuto: I do.. But things has gotten bad for us, all of us."
"Khoteku: What-What do you mean?"
"Shibuto: ...Well, our family actually disbanded. Many has died in war and those of us who are alive are either done with the Magachi's or are training or preparing for war."
"Khoteku: War? Wait. What war? What the hell did I actually miss..?! What about Kazuya or Sawano or or... What about my brother..?"
"Shibuto: ...Kazuya betrayed us, Sawano... is going down a path that could be bad for all of us.. and your brother, my father... Kazuya killed Gaito."

(With her heartbeat echoing to the very news, she'd fall to her very knees as she felt physically sick to where she actually vomited to the news. Coughing and heaving as Shibuto pat her back and cleans up her mess, she then sits back down as she took a deep breath then resays what Shibuto has just told her.)

"Khoteku: ...So.. Kazuya.. k-killed, my.. brother..? H-How...?"
"Shibuto: It's a very long story, but to shorten the details, Kazuya is our enemy, he's no longer family."
"Khoteku: ..."
"Shibuto: Aunt Khoteku, we need your strength. As a former Dimensional Warlord, you were among the strong to actually stand toe to toe against Gaito in the past, but your feats in the very vacuums of space isn't forgotten."
"Khoteku: ...When do the wars begin?"
"Shibuto: It depends when Kazuya is freed from his prison. I'm sure you remember Khomat, right? He recently tracked him down and raided his realm."
"Khoteku: I intend to help, on one condition."
"Shibuto: Which is..?"
"Khoteku: I want to talk to Sawano."

(Shibuto suddenly hesitated at her statement as he remembered the very smack he gave him.)

"Shibuto: I uh.. I don't think Sawano would be fond of visitors at the moment."
"Khoteku: I figured as so, but Sawano has a weapon I gave to him a few months ago. I'll need that if I'm going to be able to fight once again."
"Shibuto: Okay, we can talk to Sawano. But first, we need to meet with Aimiya, Amaterasu and Xinera. They'll be waiting for us in New Olympus."
"Khoteku: I see. MEN! I have urgent matters to take care of and I will be gone for some time. Until then, my first mate, Mokuro will take over as acting captain."

(As Khoteku then throws her captain hat over to Mokuro, he'd catch it and bows respectfully. With the crew then waving goodbye to Shibuto and Khoteku, the two would then have been transported via portal to the New Olympian Library, meeting in a secluded room with Amaterasu, Xinera, Aimiya and a mysterious white cloaked female with a powerful presence as they all have arrived to at last discuss plans for the rescue of Goxius from the Unseen Abyss.)

"Aimiya: Now that we've all arrived, allow me to introduce one of our allies, Azstaria."

(Azstaria then nods speechlessly as she interestingly gave her attention to Shibuto's presence.)

"Aimiya: Now. The reason all of us are here are several things. But the main objective is to free Goxius from the Unseen Abyss. Those who do not know what that or a Grand Sin is allow me to explain. The Unseen Abyss is a dark vacuum of space, created eons ago by the first God of Darkness to hold criminals of Grand Sins, it is one of the Divinity Realm's most reliable abyss of maintaining forgotten criminals among the many ages. And a Grand Sin is a crime that violates the very conduct of either the timeline's regulations or law of the divinity. From the day the abyss was created up to today's generation, there are exactly more than two thousand enemies locked away in the Unseen Abyss. But according to information we've received from Beast King, Khomat, there are six grand sinners in today's world. One of which being myself, the rest of the five Grand Sinners are, the recently self-proclaimed Pirate God, Milo The Clown. Current King of Senvoinerth, Sawano Magachi. Grandmaster of the Gojai Dojo, Lotus Kenhiro. Headmaster of Saikan Academy on Earth, Chimon Hato. And lastly, our ally Azstaria here."

"Shibuto: Question, is there a reason Gaito was not mentioned?"
"Aimiya: Gaito is out of the question. For he is a Grand Sinner of many crimes he committed, no doubt. There's a reason I cannot bring him up. But due to a contract, I cannot tell you that very reason, I'm sorry Young Shibuto."
"Shibuto: I understand, thank you for answering however."
"Khoteku: Well, what exactly would you need to commit in order to be considered a Grand Sinner?"
"Aimiya: To be a Grand Sinner, the individual must have either entered a forbidden time period, killed a being higher or at least on par with a Creator, gained immense power by various means and so on."
"Xinera: So what crime did Sawano even commit..?"

(Aimiya then hesitated as he then reveals an cracked amulet.)

"Aimiya: Please examine this amulet."
"Xinera: ...?"

(With silence, the amulet was examined as it suddenly burns in Xinera's hands, forcing her out of instinct to drop it and cool her hands down.)

"Xinera: OW!! IT LIT ON FIRE!"
"Aimiya: Precisely. This was the amulet Sawano held for years, inside it was his very power, Zugarian."

(Shibuto then suddenly remembered that name.)

"Shibuto: But... Zugarian's own name hasn't been heard from in years."
"Aimiya: Because, Zugarian was killed."

(With glares of shock surprising those who knew Zugarian, Aimiya continued.)

"Aimiya: Sawano cracked the amulet with a purpose, slithered inside and killed Zugarian in cold blood then absorbed every essence and bit of him, giving Sawano immense power. Which is how he was able to transform into, what you guys called the Chained Titan."
"Shibuto: ...S-Sawano.. killed Zugarian..?! But he cared for his own beast..!"
"Aimiya: Yes. But he knows what choice he made and it's why he's a Grand Sinner."
"Khoteku: ..."
"Aimiya: If there's no more questions, Amaterasu, the floor's yours."

"Amaterasu: Thank you Aimiya. Now, despite what we know about everyone there, there's a few things he has left out. There are still more sinners that were unaccounted for but we are the only ones in this room that can survive the very dark vacuums of space. Therefore, the plan will go like this... The Unseen Abyss can only accessed right underneath Purgatory, which also means.. we need to venture through Hell. The only problem with that is, Sawano."

"Shibuto: ..."
"Azstaria (Grand Sinner): Sawano would see us as potential enemies if we do not fill him on the situation, but there's also the fact he'll kill us if we tell him we're entering Purgatory. Running into him at the very moment is a crucial must not."
"Xinera: But what if we did run into him or worst, if he catches us?"
"Aimiya: We'll most likely be fighting to the death, Sawano will do whatever he can at this point to get stronger... Even kill off his own family."
"Shibuto: ...I'll transport us there."
"Azstaria: ...?"
"Shibuto: Thanks to endless training by Onara, I can teleport us to Purgatory without crossing Sawano or alerting him."
"Khoteku: Shibuto did tell me that he's a lot more stealthier with teleportation, I vouch for him on it."
"Amaterasu: I see. Shibuto, if your teleportation is just like Miss Khoteku says, then we'll rely on you to get us to Purgatory."
"Shibuto: I will not fail."
"Amaterasu: Now. Understand that once we all get into the Unseen Abyss, we will potentially be at a risk of fighting, we're to find Goxius and bring him back to our time. If anyone intends on backing out, you have the chance to do so."

(With no one then saying a single word, Xinera sticks her hand out on the table. Shibuto then joins in, then Khoteku, then Azstaria, then Aimiya and then Amaterasu. With all hands on the table, they then yell in unison:)

"All: TO THE UNSEEN ABYSS!"
