#rotem

When Akachi uttered those words the area around them was wrapped in a dome screen showing an angel with a black scythe resting on his shoulder was sitting atop a massive hourglass with innumerable clocks and cog wheels in the surrounding area. The man possessed silver hair with dark bronze skin and black eyes that had a silver cogwheel in them turning clockwise slowly. He wore a white and gold robe with two large silver and gold wings.

“Now I shall tell you the tale of the angel of time Rotem” Akachi said

Long ago when the lord created the heavens and the earth time was made and so he chose an angel to be the protector, watcher, and defender of time. His name was Rotem he did his chosen job for many years until the day when the watchers of the world came to him to have him join them in their oath. This being his first time seeing the daughters of man he became increadibly enraptured by them and code to follow the fallen watchers and take wives from amongst the women.

“Wait hold on so you mean to tell us the reason for all of this was because he couldn’t keep it in his pants in a past life.” Kenny said

“Yes that’s the gist of it now let’s continue” Akachi stated

When the lord caught wind of this he condemned each watcher to be bound forever until the final judgment, but Rotem was unlike the others as he begged for the lord’s forgiveness and asked if there was anyway he could appease the lord from his sin. So the lord decided to turn him human and gave him these instructions.

“Rotem I have turned you human but I have left you your powers of time my commandment for you is to serve and help humanity whenever and however you can until I give my final judgement. Know this the body you now posses shall not be the last you shall die and return in a new body with new eyes but with your memories and powers. Now I shall leave you farewell.”

After that commandment he did as he was told and to this day has continued. “Now that I have told you our take I will ask you a question will you take up the mantel Niko and become the next reincarnation.”

Niko turned towards the two boys

“What do you two think I should do?”

“What? Why the hell are you asking us?!”

“Because you two are the only people who I would trust with any knowledge of this level. And I’m asking because I don’t know myself!”

“I-i think you should do it Niko” butters stuttered

“Butters you can’t be serious why should he?”

“W-well from what it seems like he likes helping people a lot a-and he’s honestly the best person I can think of for this s-situation.”

“Well your not wrong no matter what quest someone gave him he did it even when I asked for a flower although I’m still not sure if you were flirting” Kenny teased

Niko gained a blush

“But I have to agree with him I couldn’t picture anyone else that we know who could do it…but remember it’s still your choice dude”

“Alright I’ve hear you both. Alright Akachi I’ll accept it.”

The man nodded with a content smile “very well, as the former reincarnation of the angel Rotem I now entrust you Niko Drago with the hidden knowledge, abilities, secrets, techniques and whatever else there is that we have gained to you please step forward and brace yourself you body will no longer be only human and it will be painful.”

Niko hugged the two “alright I’ll see you two in a bit” when he pulled away the two boys returned to their bodies awaking. After the two disappeared Niko walked towards the man looking him in his eyes which now possessed a bronze cogwheel. When he stopped infront of the man Akachi held out his hand and touched Niko’s forehead sending an immense amount of energy into his body as well as memories over multiple millennia. As his body originally flowed bronze it transformed into a bright silver that erupted in a brilliant flash filling up the whole mindscape ultimately waking him up. When he awoken he pulled himself up and in the air you could sense the ancient energy radiating off of him as multiple people gasped at him as in his dark brown eyes appeared silver cogwheels and coming out of his back were two silver wings. And he said only this one word with his voice being layered with numerous others.

The man chuckled at the child infront of him. “This isn’t funny! How the heck are you in my head?!”

“Heheheh like I told you earlier, I am you from a past life.”

“Yeah and the tooth fairy is real.”

“Oh she is she definitely is nice lady except when it came to teeth that weren’t up to her standards, but that’s a story for another day.”

“You know what If santa and Jesus are walking around I might as well accept this.” He says sitting down holding his head in his hands.

Outside his head the other children are standing around awkwardly “uh Kenny are you sure you didn’t kill him?”

“Don’t worry the new kid is perfectly fine.” Said the one and only Morgan Freeman

“M-Morgan Freeman, what’re you doing here.” Kyle asked

“I’m here because I sensed a great time anomaly afoot and I went to my protege.” He looks around and finds the journal. “Ah, it seems that is the reason why. That journal children belongs to a man who has reincarnated countless centuries throughout human history. How I know this you may ask? My own mentor the past reincarnate before Niko told me what he was and his job. One day he told me that after many years I would find him again and it appears the child is what he was referring to.”

In the new kid’s mind Akachi is explaining who and what they are. “For the rest of this I would suggest taking someone who you are comfortable with telling these secrets that are so dark and hidden that no one should know. Choose wisely Niko. He said

"I want Kenny and Butters to go with me.” The man nodded and raised his hands and a bronze light shined from them. In the outside world butters and Kenny both shined with the same light and were forced to fall asleep. “Ah, so it begins .” Morgan freeman says.

The two boys appear beside Niko. “What the fuck!” Kenny yells while butters looks around frantically. “Hey calm down you two.” Niko says. They both immediately turn towards the boy with Kenny rushing up to him asking a million questions . “Where are we, how did we get here.” Etc, etc. “listen to any questions you have I don’t know and ask him”

He pointed his thumb towards Akachi.

“Hello children, my name is Akachi I was the former life of Niko here and to answer your questions, you are in his mindscape. For how you got here I gave him the choice of bringing the people he trusted the most out of everyone. It so happened to be you two. Now we are here to discuss our past, well Niko’s past.” Akachi turned and multiple cogs formed a bridge each appearing older than the last.

“Oh, and Kenny would you please let go of poor Niko you’re going to cause him to have a heart attack from being so close. He is quite infatuated with you if you’ve not noticed. Now come along.” Kenny and Niko quickly separated from each other with each possessing a small blush. As they followed the man on each cog Niko stepped on a cog a video played showing a different person each time and certain events each boy stared in amazement.

At the end of the bridge it’s a large cog made of platinum and gold with four bronze wings surrounding it floating in a circle. Woah the children said in sync.

The main enemy for Karnas - Rotem sells not just slaves for all sorts... But as well "living" figures, that got a taxidermy handling.
