THE CHAMPION FROM ANCIENT

If a genre of story comes as "Old man, boy and a dog in ruins," most people will go with a horror style of writing. But if you are some fantasy writer, you could twist it other instead of the horror.

Just been five days and now the invasion of aliens is an step away from the success. Mankind is at the verge of being under thralldom of the Stoners(aliens from planet Stone World), and the Earth about to be under their dominion.

"Fire continuously, don't give a f***ing sh*t chance to those f***ing a**holes," Drac commanded as he fixed is lazer sight to an unknown machine shooting their defense. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, everything went dark and silent. As he was barely able to move and opened his eyes, all his troops were lying on the dusty battlefield with their body parts scattered barely recognizable and covered with dust and bloods.

"Hey John." Drac saw his buddy few meters away and crawled towards him.

"Johnny,..Johnny...Joh..." John layed there, his body split into half from his abdomen.

Drac scanned around the surrounding, it's dark and dusty everywhere filled with smokes and fire. Aliens were gone, the line of defense Drac and his men were holding was broken and penetrated.

He found himself to be the only survivor.

"Wooff?.wooofff," Drac got stunned and hid inside the trench.

He heard some heavy breathing above the trench. Drac gently peeked through the trench unbuttoning the straps of his dagger's cover and placing his hands on the dagger. He saw a figure moving towards his direction. He quickly picked up a laser-gun nearby him and aimed it at the figure.

"wooff...woofff."

"Langtsai? come, come," Drac got out of the the trench and rushed over happily as his dog(Langtsai) runs towards him.

Stoners had already marched towards their city after breaking their line of defense. Drac looked towards the direction Stoners went and wept not being able to do anything and realizing his failure to hold Stoners at the line of Defence.

"Ahhhh?." shrieked Drac and look down only to notice that his leg has been pierced by a metal from thigh.

"Hey boy," Drac opened his eyes, "Are you feeling better?"

Drac blankly looked at the old man and his surrounding. He could see and old man wearing a lab coat but instead of at a hospital or some house, he could see that he is at some old house or some ruins.

"Where am I?"

"I am Dr.Punk, my laboratory has been destroyed by Stoners," old man introduced. "You have been wounded heavily and you fainted at the battlefield."

"Thanks to your dog that I was able to find you at that huge battlefield and saw that you are still breathing, so I brought you here. This is ruins of some old castle few miles from your defence field."

"Thank you Doctor, but what happened to the war?" asked Drac "are we done for?"

"Dont worry?.."

"Drac. My name is Drac." clarified Drac.

"So Crack, don't..."

"Drac doctor, Drac like Dracula."

"Dracula. Oh sorry, what I mean is don't worry about that war thing. Stoners will only reach our city by today evening. We could make it in time before that," smiled Dr.Punk.

"We could make make it in time???" Drac looked at old man. "We can't do anything. Humans are no match for Stoners. It is over for humans doctor."

"Only if they had me killed while destroying my laboratory." laughed Dr.Punk. "I had been doing research for very long time and made some of what you human say as technological weapons."

"You humans?, what are you?" Drac muttered in confusion.

"What I mean is what you non-scientific people calls, hehe," smiled Dr.Punk

"So, what solution did you got sir." asked Drac as he could still remember the clear pictures of his troops and how ruthlessly Stoners had destroyed all of them in a single go.

"Now listen carefully my son," Dr.Punks expression turned serious suddenly and pointed to a cloth hanging beside him, "This cloth is made of ancient godly fibres and is invincibe, the amulet on it is from ancient times when gods are still alive. It will protect whoever wears it from any external harms."

"Haha. This can save the world?" Drac laughed but stopped as old man looked more serious than before.

"No. This, you will wear it for protection of yourselves. But whats more important is this," Dr.Punk took out a glass tube filled with golden liquid.

"This is the result of my science, my years of hard-work and research. Once you are fused with this, you will get immense strength. You will be able to fly, you can travel at the speed of light, you will be able to create objects of your imagination. What you can imagine is your power. Your creativity is your strength and limit." explained Dr.Punk, "I call this godly champion blood."

"You mean like Superman in movies?" asked Drac.

"You can say that. Its something like that, but more than your Superman," said Dr.Punk. "Now we don't have all the day buddy," Dr.Punk made Drac lay on some old wooden table in place of bed, "so hurry up and let me make you the Champion."

Dr.Punk injected the golden serum through Drac's neck mumbling some words.

"Wooohh?." Drac exclaimed. He could feel a surge of energy within himself as he got up from old plank.

"Now close your eyes and pray for the blessing of Buddha," told Dr.Punk.

Drac puts his hands together and prayed to the Buddha for Earth to be saved. Just as he prayed, he felt comfort all over his body and his injuries and all the worries and tensions from losing his troops disappeared.

"How did this happened!" Drac was shocked to see himself wearing the suit and amulet as he opened his eyes.

"Now hurry up and show Stoners who protects the Earth." Said Dr.Punk.

"How do I fly doctor?"

"Now is not the time buddy, hurry up before its too late." said Dr.Punk.

"Yes, yes. We have to hurry." Drac got stunned for a as he looked down to see Langtsai wearing same suit as him and talking like as if he is also a human.

"We will talk after the Stoner problem is solved. Just now, Hurry up and show some lesson to the Stoners." shouted Dr.Punk.

Drac ran towards city, the direction Stoners went without thinking anything. As Drac started running he could feel that he is traveling very slow. So Drac started sprinting just to realize that he is running faster than the bullet train and Flash in the movies.

In haste as festinate, Drac jumped but soon found himself flying.

"Woohoooo" Drac clould now see outskirts of the city and Stoners carrying out their rampage on the weak defense of the city and humans already in no hope but still fighting back.

"Power of imagination huh?" Drac analyzed and thought of a huge wall to protect city from these attacks.

On a fraction of seconds, huge golden wall appeared out of nowhere at the edge of city blocking the aliens bombing and firing shocking the Stoners at the miracle and the unexpected appearance of the world.

Drac thought of a huge hammer and instantly a huge golden hammer appeared in his hand. Drac threw the hammer towards nearest spaceship. The spaceship blasted in as soon as the hammer hits it and fell downwards toward the ground.

Apart from that spaceship falling down, the spaceship behind it and behind that too had faced the same fate.

Stoners got shocked at such a huge power and destruction to their manpower, ships and weapons. This grabbed the attention of Stoners towards Drac. Some battleship directed their face and firing towards Dracs direction. A huge siren-like sound came from the biggest and topmost spaceship labeled ST-001 and a huge laser-light from ST-001 pointed to Drac,

Soon all the attacks that were engaged at the city got directed towards Drac leading to heavy amount of firing and bombing all directed at him.

To Dracs suprise, he could see the bullets and bomb shells coming towards him very slowly like small kid running towards their parents. Drac flew towards each and every bullet and shells redirecting them to the directions where it is coming from.

Before Stoners realized themselves, half of the their ships were destroyed by their own bullets and bombs.

Soon Stoners started panicking after seeing the change in tide of war in an instant and the earlier rampaging formation and lines started breaking, leading Stoners into a full ruckus and some even running away from the scene.

Drac now knew the leader of the Stoners army was someone there in the biggest and topmost ship that is labeled ST-001. So Drac started flying towards the ST-001.

As Drac started moving, most of the stoners on his way either ran away or gave him a way-in towards their boss. But some ships still kept resisting by blocking his way or firing at him.

"Watch out Drac," Drac looked behind him to see Langtsai blocking a laser directed towards Drac using one stoners ship and shouted, "Keep going, I got your back."

Drac smiled and waved thumps up to Langtsai and started again towards ST-001.

Soon heavy firing started coming from ST-001 towards Drac. Drac instead of blocking or bouncing them back kept dodging the bullets and shells and kept moving towards ST-001.

As soon a Drac reached ST-001, he grabbed it from the cockpit and threw it on the ground. Drac again grabbed it and pulled it on the air about few hundred meters throwing it again on the ground.

BOOM!!!

BOOOOM!!!

ST-001 blasted as if it was hit by a several bombs and all the metals and its parts were scattered and burned down to ashes including everyone inside.

"Hero of Earth, Who ever you are, we came don't want to fight," Drac looked at sky as loudspeaker sound came from the remaining ships now all formed up and well lined.

Drac flew towards spaceship a sound is coming from and landed on its cockpit. A robotic man came forward and bowed to Drac.

"Thank you very much Hero, You have liberated our planet Stones from tyrant Kundu," said the robotic man and introduced "I am Sutye, Emperor of planet Stones."

"How dare you say such thing after doing such things to our planet," Drac shouted angrily.

"Its a misunderstanding Hero," Sutye put his knees on ground and continued, "The one you killed is my brother Kundu, he took my throne and started making life harsh for Stoners."

"He became a tyrant and attacked most of the weak civilizations, we are forced to be under him and do as he orders." Sutye explaind, "Luckily you Earthling hero saved us all, we are forever indebted to you."

After taking for quite sometime, Drac understood that Stoners were forced by their Emperors evil brother to attack not only earth but may other weak civilizations. Soon Stoners left Earth telling Drac to tell them if he ever need them or need anything.

Drac and Langtsai looked as Stoners become smaller and smaller as they disappeared into the space.

Drac hurriedly went to the old ruins before meeting any other humans. But as soon as he reached the ruins he could only find a shining piece of paper on the walls of ruins.

It said, "I will always be there when you need me boy. Remember me and I will appear in-front of you when in need. Future is always filled with distress and problems. You have to always choose the right path and help the righteous ones. Because you are the CHAMPION, CHAMPION REBORN FROM OLD DAYS."

Drac read the note and smiled, "CHAMPION FROM OLD DAYS. Haha"
