Chapter// 1 

Happy Birthday! 

This is a story about a 14 year old boy, Named Xak, who 

has yet to realize his destiny. His life as he knows it will 

change for the better, or the worse, that’s up to him to 

decide. But before we can begin this story, we must first, 

know another… 900 years ago, on the Planet Deveron, 

Lived 4 race of people, The Greandivals, The 

SnowFrindgers, The Hydians, and the Ashdrians, these 4 

nations, coexisted, in harmony, but then a mysterious 

black hole ripped in the center of the Ashdri desert, 

unleashing, Monsters, made from black energy, known 

as Voids. Titled by the Denivians, the Master race of 



Deveron, after the Black emptiness. The monsters came 

in like a bat out of hell, started war on a global scale! At 

the time, Denivians, had no chance of fighting such a 

random enemy, with powers they had never seen before, 

but out of the darkness, 3 heroes of light, shined 

through! The white Witch, Alics, The White Rook, Dezz, 

and the White Knight, Mar. three warriors, who 

possessed the powers to defeat the black beasts. after 5 

years of war, Alics, And Dezz finally developed a plan to 

stop the war, or at least Halt it, by sealing away the 

Malicious King, Mazoas. The 4 nation’s Leaders, agreed 

with Alics, and so they built a temple in the deep in the 

Ashdri desert, and lured the Dark King there. There Alics, 

and Dezz fought brutally against the King, in the 

chambers of fate, Despite Alics being weaker then the 

King, she managed to trick him, and seal him away, 

afterwards, Alics was battle worn and exhausted. She 

then, returned Victorious, but at the cost of losing her 

sister, Dezz, and her brother, Mar. sense afterwards, she 

had disappeared, never to be seen or heard from again. 

A Grown man, closes a book, titled “The legendary 3” as 

the Man Looked towards a small child, His son. “Did you 

like that story, Xak?” The Man asked. “Yeah, sure did 



pop!” The Boy replied. As he was sent to bed with a pat 

on the head and fatherly smile, as his Mother leaned 

against the bedroom doorway. After the father, tucked 

the boy away, the Boy looked to his father and said “Hey 

dad… Do you think Alics is still alive, somewhere out 

there?” to which the father replied “I’m sure she is son, 

she’s out there, looking after all of Denivian kind. Just as 

she did all those years ago.” The Father, Gave his son a 

hug good night, followed by his mother with a kiss on the 

head. “Good night, Xak. Have pleasant dreams.” The 

Mother said, as they both exited the boy’s room. But 

shortly after they left, the Boy’s eyes opened and smiled 

deviously, he dashed for his window, and opened it up, 

and a Purple hair girl climbed through, “Geez, what took 

so long?” the Girl said. “Shhh!” the boy replied. “I had to 

wait for my parents leave.” He continued. “let me guess, 

they read you that dumb story about the White again, 

huh?” The Girl Mocked. “Hey that’s my favorite story and 

you know it!” The Boy replied sharply. “Yeah, yeah, but 

aren’t you like. 8 years old? Shouldn’t you be… I don’t 

know, done with fairy tales?”She stated. 

 



“heck no. In fact, I hope one day I’ll get to meet the 

witch, I mean it only makes sense! She’s my hero after 

all!”Xak said with stars in his eyes, The Girl swung a fist of 

Xak’s shoulder with a soft chuckle. “you’re a gullible one, 

Xak. Uhm, Deveron to Xak! the white witch is a fairy tale, 

Fair-ree Tale! Plus even if she was real, that story is like 

900 years old, so by now, she’s either dead, or super 

old… Ech! Besides, why would you want her for a hero, 

when the Awesome and mighty, Woman of Power, is 

here, the great Ophilia! HA! HA! HA!” Ophilia bragged, 

flexing her arms, in a heroic pose. Xak looked at Ophilia 

with a unimpressed face “Really? The Great Ophilia?” Xak 

mocked, “Hey mock all you want, I’m not in Training for 

nothing! After all, I am in the royal guard elite training 

camp.””Yeah… in the Junior camp… Hee hee.” Xak 

belittled, Ophilia gave Xak an angry look, as she 

repeatedly punched Xak in the arm till it was black and 

blue. Xak rubbed his bruised shoulder, as she looked at 

Ophilia just as Angry. “What? You started it!” Ophilia 

stated. “Yeah, but you didn’t have to punch me so many 

times, and so hard too, geez. Sometimes I wonder if you 

forget your strength…” Ophilia Chuckled with a blush ”I 

know! Right! I’m so gifted!” Ophilia Bragged. “Yeah 



Gifted at being a numb skull, Tee hee!” Xak taunted. 

“Okay, buster! You’re getting it so hard this time, and 

you better not cry, or I’ll belt you another one, real 

good!” Ophilia said, Jumping at him over the bed, and 

tackling him to the floor, she sat on his torso, over 

powering him. “Wait S-stop! This isn’t fair! You’re 

stronger than me!” Xak whined. “What did I say about 

Cryin�"“ Suddenly a knock at the door. “Xak are you 

awake?” Said a manly voice, it was his father. “Quick… 

Ophilia hide!” Xak Whispered. Ophilia panicked, and 

Took cover under the bed. Xak leaped in to his bed, and 

covered himself up, pretending to sleep, as the door 

opened. His father scratched his head in confusion. 

“Now, I could’ve swore I heard noises from from in 

here… I must be that exhausted…” The King looked at his 

son sleeping, and smiled, as she gently closed the door. 

Quickly Ophilia crawled out from under the bed, and Xak 

rose, as they both Giggled, at each other, the rest of the 

night, they played, and told stupid jokes, and stories, 

made shadow puppets, as good friends do. And every 

day they’d meet after dark, and hang out with each 

other. 



6 years later. It was a beautiful day, the royal Guard 

trainee’s were graduating, Ophilia being so happy, now 

that she’s an official Royal Guard, she’d get to guard the 

castle, and be around Xak more now, then ever before. 

And not only that, but it was the Day before Xak’s 15th 

Birthday. That night after Graduation, Ophilia Once again 

snuck up into Xak’s room as usual. “Whoa, you finally did 

it, Ophs! You got in!” Xak chanted with cheer. “I know. 7 

years of training, and everything. Just so I can be around 

you… Xak I�"“ She was interrupted, “Right! Hey it’s my 

birthday tomorrow, and well I wanted to get you 

something!” Xak said as he walked over to his closet to 

look for something. “Uh, it’s your birthday, Xak. Why did 

you get me a present?” Ophilia, Blushed but was 

confused. “Because, numb skull, you and I finally 

became… well you know… Boyfriend and Girlfriend, on 

my Birthday 3 years ago… Duh! heh, Boy, Ophs, Usually 

you’re the one belting me to remember.” Xak said as he 

turned around with a present in his hands. Ophilia, 

blushed, as she scratched her head. “Heh… yeah, I guess I 

zoned out, thinking about Graduation and stuff. But 

honestly, Xak. you didn’t have to… I mean I feel bad I 

didn’t get you�"“ She was Interrupted again. “It’s alright, 



Ophs, you didn’t have to. Sneaking off from training 

every night, for 7 years… I couldn’t possibly expect 

anything more from you, you’re all I need for a present.” 

Xak said happily, as She slugged him in the arm. ”you 

dork!” she replied, as she took the present from him and 

opened it, to reveal it was a silver ring with a purple jem 

on it. “Oh, my�"Whoa? How? Well duh, you’re a prince, 

but wow! Are you sure this is for me, I mean… holy 

crap!” Ophilia stated as her eyes were so glued to the 

beauty. “Yep. It’s a promise ring…” Xak stated Shyly. “A 

p… Promise ring?” Ophilia repeated. “Yeah… a promise, 

that I’ll always be there for you, no matter what!” Xak 

stated as he grabbed Ophilia’s hands and held them tight 

against his chest. “I… I don’t know what to say, Xak. I’m 

honestly Surprised by this, I mean… I feel so honored, 

that you care about me so much… that’s a dangerous 

promise to making to a girl, especially a girl like myself… 

“She replied giving him a playful glare, with an eye brow 

raised and smirk on her face. “and I mean it…” Xak 

replied seriously, Ophilia’s playfulness was quickly 

dashed, as she blushed, suddenly feeling the warmth of 

his heart beating, with her hands toughing his chest. 

“well, I could never say no to you, Xak. you’re the cutest 



boy I’ve ever met, and only boy I’ve ever known.” Ophilia 

stated, as she placed her head on Xak’s chest, and 

listened to his heart beating, as she blushed brightly. 

“Xak wrapped his arms around her, and held her, as she 

did the same, holding each other. The night grew late 

already, and Ophilia, headed to guard’s barracks In the 

castle. Before they knew it, the Morning came already, 

and Xak’s 15th birthday, was underway! He was so 

excited, he couldn’t wait to see what his father had 

planned, and more especially what Ophilia, had planned. 

Xak, rose from his bed, and looked out his window, to 

see the kingdom… In flames, Black flames, Xak’s face 

turned to a horror, seeing the dead bodies everywhere, 

he assumed it was a nightmare, and closed his eyes, and 

rubbed them, but nothing changed, his first thought, was 

of his Love, Ophilia, and his parents, he rushed out his 

bedroom door, and ran down the stairs, as soon as he 

made it to the ground floor of the Castle, the image was 

more horrifying, He ran towards the Barracks, sense they 

were closer, to search for Ophilia, he dashed through the 

fiery hallways, and finally made it to the Barracks, but 

was stopped but a guard, “My prince! Thank goodness 

you’re safe! Place follow me, I’ll take you to the Safe 



room!” The Guard Shouted. “No, not without Ophilia!” 

Xak stated. “Ophilia? She’s not in there, as soon as the 

raid started, She dashed out to find you!” The Guard 

stated, but Xak slipped from the Guard’s grasp, and ran 

back the way he came. “Sir, Deen! Please, come back!” 

The Guard Shouted, chasing after him. “Go find my 

Parents, and make sure they’re alright! Don’t worry 

about me!” Xak stated as he was already further down 

the hall.” Xak shed a tear, worrying about his parents, 

and his Love. Hoping they’d all be alright. Ophilia was in 

Xak’s room by this point, but found out She was too late, 

and left to find him, Xak went back to his room, hoping 

she was there, but she was not. Ophilia checked back at 

the Barracks, thinking he came after her, but again, he 

wasn’t there. Xak left his room again, and decided to look 

for his parents, He knew Ophilia would find him. Xak 

walked into the throne room, just as he saw a black 

creature, standing on two legs, with black flames roaring 

on his head, Decapitating his Mother… “Xak shouted, in 

full charge! “Don’t touch my daaadd!” But as Xak tried to 

throw a punch, the Beast chuckled, and dodged it, 

vanishing and reappearing behind him. “You’re a fool if 

you think some raggedy kid, like you can touch me…” 



“Maybe he can’t! BUT I SURE AS HELL CAN!” a Voice 

called out, as a flying Knee struck the beast, knocking him 

back away from Xak, “Ophilia! You’re alright!” Xak 

shouted in joy. “Of course, It is me, after all! Now stand 

back, I’ll protect you.” Ophilia stated, as she got into her 

Boxing stance. “Alright, you walking camp fire, I’m going 

to roast your weenies, let’s go!” She stated, as she 

sprinted, than a short leap, packing a fist, ready to 

explode. The Beast dodged the impact, and vanished 

again, reappearing before the fear struck King. “I didn’t 

come here to battle… I came here to leave a message…” 

The Beast said, as she placed his hand on the King’s head, 

and lit him on fire, Black flames charred the King to 

ashes, Xak’s eyes widened in shock, as did Ophilia. “I’ll kill 

you for that!!!!” Ophilia shouted in pure Anger, as she 

dashed at the Beast. “You can take your Message and 

shove it up your a*s!” Ophilia shouted, as she punched 

the Beast over and over and over again, but this time the 

best was not budging. “Hmhm… You’re a feisty one… 

You’ll be the perfect key…” The Black fire monster said, 

as Ophilia was stunned in fear, seeing how her punched 

had no effect. “W-what the hell are you?” Ophilia asked 

quivering. “Ophilia Look out!!!” Xak shouted, But Ophilia 



couldn’t react in time, The beast struck her, unconscious, 

and grabbed her under his arm, and took Flight, busting 

through the castle ceiling. Xak chased after him, as he 

Jumped from on pillar to another, and made a leap of 

faith, reach his hand out for his beloved Ophilia’s hand. 

The Beast chuckled, and turned around moving Ophilia’s 

body away from his limit grasp, and smiled. “it appears I 

was right. You have a dark future ahead of you…” The 

Beast said, as he made his free hand in a gun gesture, 

pointing his index finger out, and his thumb up, and shot 

a small black pellet, into Xak’s chest, sending him flying, 

back into the castle walls, as he laid on the ground trying 

to regain his composure from the impact, his breath was 

getting hot, and his chest felt as though it was on fire… 

he squirmed and writhed in agony, with tears in his eyes, 

seeing his Beloved Ophilia drift away in the hands of the 

beast. “O.. Ophilia… I- I’m sorry...” Xak said barely able to 

speak. Xak passed out, moments later, and woke up the 

next day hearing a familiar voice, but yet a voice he did 

not recognize. “Happy Birthday, this is my gift to 

you…”said the voice, as Xak awoke in shock, thinking it 

was all a dream, but quickly dispersed his hopes, as he 

looked to see the castle in shambles… “I’ll get you… 



Whoever you are! Whatever you are! I’LL FIND YOU!!” 

Xak shouted in rage. He stood up from his spot, and 

suddenly saw some changes in his physical stature. His 

he didn’t feel pain or exhausted, and he felt completely 

fine, no sores or bruises. Xak was worried, but just 

assumed he was tougher then he thought. He walked 

back up to his room, and there on the bed was a gift. 

“wait. That wasn’t there yesterday… wait…” Xak suddenly 

had a flash back, Xak didn’t notice the present was there 

the whole time, when he woke up, he walked straight to 

the window, the present was there.”Maybe.. it was there 

the whole time?” Xak thought to himself, He opened the 

present a purple cloth… a note lied inside the Box. “Sorry 

I didn’t give this to you last night, I was nervous about 

your reaction, But as long as you get it. I love you, Xak, 

and This blanket I made is proof, please I hope you like it, 

and wear it, otherwise I’ll have to belt you for everyday 

you don’t. -Love Ophs.” Xak lowered his head clutching 

the note in his hand and the cloth in the other. “I’ll wear 

it every day for the rest of my life, Ophs, I’ll wear it for 

you, and when I find you, it’ll be the first thing you see…” 

Xak said as she wrapped the Cloth around his neck like a 

scarf, and pocketed the note as a memento. “I’ll find you, 



Ophs, I promise, I gave you my word. So please, believe 

in me.” Xak thought out loud, as he left his kingdom, and 

started on his Journey, but little did he know, this 

journey, was the beginning, of his destiny…
