Chương 4: Choices and decisions

It's 6 in the morning. The rain fell harshly as the wind was howling. All in all, the weather.....was absolutely ass. But this non of this bother Sorren, he was standing out back of his house practicing with his sword, he's been getting a lot better. His movements are becoming more fluid, more deadly. He didn't care for making and flashy techniques with it. He just made sure all his hits are price and could kill. He's been here for almost a week, and he can feel that his body is getting stronger and is quite happy with his progress.

He's been spending a lot of his time at Nyx's "realm of shadows" she calls it and only ever comes here from time to time to sleep and enjoy this worlds sights. One of his favourite places to stay is a small island that Nyx showed him that when he asked to for a discreet place in which he can practice which his powers, so she found this place for him. He remembers calling her three days straight for her to take him there. Let's just say she didn't like it very much so she taught him how to use his lightning for transportation. This allows him to teleport through bolts of lightning leaving scorch marks after the jump. Similar to the goddess of war. Athena. Needless to say, it's very useful.

When he finished with sword practice, he then went back inside took a nice cold shower to cool himself off. After his he the got a bottle of water and just sat his windowsill and watched the rain. For sum reason he actually liked it when it rains, it was just calming for him. As he watched the rain his mind went back to his fist battle he had on the the island. Although he had a lot of power he said still lacked in battle experience.

Maybe Nyx can help me out with that. I thought to myself as I equip my my suit and weapon and call on her. "Nyx I need to speak with you." As soon I as finished my sentence, shadows start fo form in front of me and she rose out of them.

"Hello Sor, how are you?" She asked. We've gotten to know each other really well and getting very close that she stater calling me 'Sor' and I actually quite like it. We both know that we have fillings for one another. But neither of us has yet made the first move. A smile the creep it way onto my face as I respond.

"I'm doing well thank you. You look beautiful as always." I say still smiling after examining her (caught caught)

"Why thank you, you don't look to bad yourself." She say playfully. "What is it you wanted to talk about?" She then asked me curiously.

"I wanted to know if you can help me out with battle experience. I'd prefer to avoid the justice league for now. I don't want to reveal my cards just yet." I tell her

"Hmm, there is two ways you can do this. The most beneficial is to useful is to use The Battle Stimulator created by the goddess Minerva. It hasn't been used since her disappearance decades ago but should is more than likely still accessible.

(I just sprouted pure bullshit like a pro)

"That would work perfectly." Using this room will be very beneficial for me, with this I can get enough experience in mere a few months. Fuck the 6 year deadline. As soon as I'm done with this I'm gonna pay mother dearest and mass of whores. An evil smile started to form on my face. "When can I begin?" I asked excitedly.

"You can start now." Nyx says realising his train of thoughts. She the sighs and says mentally. "I'm falling for a battle junkie." As she teleports the both of them to Battle Simulator.

(Diana POV)

As of now the league has gathered on the subject of a new Demi-god. We have been searching for almost a full week yet we have came up empty handed. Bruce managed to get a sightings him entering a rundown house in Gotham city a day after our search began, but when we went to check it out he was already gone. It was like he wasn't even there to begin with.

That was the fist time I've seen my brother, what he looks like. And just when I thought I'd get the chance to meet him, he vanishes. I then sight I frustration wonder where he could have gone and how he left so quickly without anyone realising.

Bruce suddenly turns to me with constant straight face and asks. "What did Hippolyta say when you talked to her about this."

"She says that if he just disappeared like that he is more than likely with with the goddess Nyx as that is how he escaped from the island." I tell him them, making Bruce raise an eyebrow in shock or is that disbelief....I can't never tell with him I think to myself deciding to continue. "She also mentioned that if he hasn't attempted to find me then he's could only be doing on thing..." I say pausing, not wanting to finish that sentence.

"What?" Superman then asked getting a bad feeling of what she is to say next.

"The destruction of Themyscria and everyone in it." I barely managed to get out. The room is then dead silent, I can fell the air in the room tense. Until Aquaman decided to voice his opinion.

"To be honest. I can understand him wanting to do that." I say braking the silence causing everyone to turn to me in disbelief. "Oh come on. He was imprisoned for god knows how many years, by his own mother and the people who hated him for beings boy and some stupid prophecy. I mean seriously. That's some fucked up shit. And honestly if I was him I'd probably do the same thing."

Superman then shouted not believing what he's hearing from someone that he considers his friend. "HE'S PLANNING ON KILLING AN ISLAND FILLED WITH PEOPLE. NO MATTER WHAT THE REASONS ITS STILL MURDER AND THAT IS WRONG!"

"Are you seriously gonna stand in front of me and say that if you where in his situation that you wouldn't do it he same thing or even try getting revenge. In which case I'd say you full of shit."

"Ok that's enough." Batman says cutting in before thing get out of hand. "If what she says is correct we cannot allow him reach his goal. If I were to guess. I'd say that he's currently preparing as we speak. Meaning we will be going up against someone who could be capable of taking on an army. In another words we need to prepare. This will be one of the most dangerous foes we'll face."

(Back with MC)

At this time, Sorren in the battle simulator locked in battle with what appears to be a Minotaur. Sorren was panting heavily, this is the fifth one he's gone up against and it's strength is no joke. The Minotaur easily reached 8 feet. And held incredible strength. It wield a double handed axe completing its power. Nyx was watching this progress from the sidelines, ensuring that he doesn't do anything stupid.

Deciding to end this bout and a highly note, I raise my hand in the air and mutter under my breath. "Emperors Rain." As I shoot multiple lightning javelins into the air and control the to come crashing down onto the Minotaur. It then falls to its knees after dropping it weapons and busts into many tiny light fragments, showing that the battle has been completed.

After I've finished my days worth of training me an Nyx teleported up back to her realm. I have decided to stay there for the time being as it made getting access to the simulator much easier. Totally not because I wanted to spend more time with Nyx.....that would be crazy. Ok thats was complete bullshit alright, so what? Sue me.

And like so this is how he spent the next 4 years.

(A.N. I've been reading you guys comments and agree that a few 6 months is t enough time for him to have enough battle experience to rival Amazons with thousands of years worth of battle so I upped the time to 4 years. Thanks for your insight!)
