Th-that has never happened before. Wh-what?
Enocs slowly stares down into his hands. He then feels the next part of the nightmare beginning. And suddenly, He remembers. A memory he always had, but had repressed.
Flashes. He is still in the tube. Someone breaks him out. He looks up, and there it is. Eikooc. His companion. The only one he could never live without. His... Savior.
They escape, but just barely. Them and another group of survivors have survived. They decide to go to The Bright Side (TBS) because they have only ever seen what had happened on the dark side.
As he looks back, he remembers that these names were decided upon before they met TBS. Who knows what would have happened if they were named after both were seen.
Of the first group sent, none came back. Half of our numbers, gone. No one knows what happened to them there. No one. So, of course, what happens? Eikooc reveals how he escaped and saved everyone. He had the help of The Great Corrupter. Enocs was the first to respond to his call. Enocs had to prove himself to The Great Corrupter. He led the charge to TBS. Half of their remaining force, so a quarter of the Materializers liberated from TDS, went with him. Eikooc stayed back. The charge to TBS was so scarring to Enocs, that even though he gained The Great Corrupter's favor, he could never remember. This time, He was forced to.
Maybe it was the fact that he holds some of The Great Corrupters power, maybe it was the fact that it was somewhere in his memories, but then he remembered one of the few words The Great Corrupter had said to him.
"One day, you will have to remember. When you do, you will have the full power gifted upon you. You will become one of my Agents. So, I gift this to you, PsuedoAgent."
And so, he remembered.
They were walking forward to the stronghold. The stronghold of TBS. They thought it was a misunderstanding. They thought the Materializers would be given back without a fight. Just in case, they brought their troops. Drows. Bats. Kcatta. These were but a few of the Materializers that were gathered for the mission. No one thought that Enocs, the Scone Materializer, would be able to fight. However, when they saw the reason for TBS to be called The Bright Side, they realized what was happening. They were not sure if what they saw was better or worse than TDS. However, they knew it was wrong. What they saw that day, at the top of the that fortress, was a blinding light. A light so pure, so... Materialistic, that they knew only one thing could power the machine inside. The souls of the materializers. TBS had found a way to slowly drain the Materializers of their power, putting them into a sleep so deep, that they never even knew awakeness in the first place. This was a gun. A laser so powerful that it would demolish anything that stood in its way. So, they had to stop it. First, they tried to get the materializers out, especially their friends. However, the TBS agents came, and the Materializers had to be faster. As the Materializers fought against the TBS, Enocs was forced to kill the Materializers still stuck. When he was done, both TBS and his materializer friends were dead. On the ground. He came back to the camp, a wreck. The population of their little camp was rapidly decreasing, and they knew they had to win their war. They had to save all the materializers that would be revived. Although without their memories, the Materializers would be a great asset for The Materializer Rebbelion to finally end the war.
