Vishnu

The scene shows Vienna. Everyone is back, and they are all in the council room. The panel is focused on a man with brown hair, a muscular built, a goatee and brown eyes. He is Henry the VIII. Then, the scene shows Robert, Leonardo, Darwin, Mozart, Houdini, Newton, Max, Arinasa and Claude.

Claude: Tell us Henry...what happend?
Henry: I don't know Claude. I was walking on the streets, in Paris when suddenly a wave of energy hit me. The next thing i know is that i'm put behind bars, and Gray tells me that i'm a bargain chip.*
Robert: This is interesting. Dorian was just a mere Aerhis...and not even a real Aerhis. He didn't achieved immortality like Isaac, Charles, Henry, Leonardo, Amadeus or Harry. His portrait kept him alive. So he wouldn't have access to use energy waves.
Leonardo: Clearly he was working with someone.
Darwin: But who? Who would want Henry as a bargain chip? I mean, if it were the Celestials they would have just attacked. It's not their style to take hostages.
Mozart: Dorian didn't revealed to me anything useful. Unfortunately.
Houdini: Well, even i who i am a Duodenae, i cannot use energy waves.*
Newton: Then we must search for the man behind Gray.*
Max: Could it be that there is a third party involved in this war?
Claude: The chances are slim. If there is a third party, they are idiots. They are about to get involved in a war. And they have no chances of survival. Us, or the Celestials would put an end to them.*
Arinasa: So what should we do?
Claude smiles: We should stay here for now. In the meantime...everyone...i need your help. You will all help Arinasa and Max. You will all teach them everything you know. They must be prepared to take their place in the upcoming war!

The scene shows Barcelona. On the Rambla street, at a little restaurant there is a meeting. The panel shows Freud, Rasputin and several other unknown people.*

Freud: My friends. Let's make the introductions, because we are not all known here. My name is Sigmund Freud.*
Rasputin: I am Grigori Rasputin.
A tall man with mid lenght brown hair and green eyes: Cesare...Cesare Borgia.
A blonde woman: Joan d'Arc.
An old man that looks like an older Cesare: Rodrigo Borgia. Or, Pope Alexander VI.
A thin man wearing glasses: Nicola Tesla.*
Freud: Good. We are waiting for two more members of our club to join us.*
The door of the restaurant opens and two men enter. They come at the table.*
The first man: Hello everyone. It's nice to meet you all. Cesare...Rodrigo...long time no see. You are both looking good.
Cesare looks at the man and smiles.
Rodrigo: Machiavelli...
Machiavelli: Your Holiness...
The other man smiles. Rasputin looks at him and grins.
Freud: I don't think that all of you know our second guest. He is the one who gave us various informations about the movements of our enemies. Our spy within their ranks. Our former spy to be more accurate. Everyone...meet Nicholas Flamel!
Flamel is shown smiling.
Joan of Arc: Flamel? Interesting. What did Vishnu had to say about you betraying him?
Flamel:He doesn't know...yet. He thinks that Rasputin killed me.
Cesare: He will find out. Eventually.
Flamel: It will be too late. Now...let's talk about the situation in the world.
Rodrigo: I will start. The Vatican is under my command. The current Pope obeys to whatever i want. So we have in our control the Christian territories.
Cesare: I gained acces to Spain, Portugal, Romania,Italy and France's governs. I have high officials placed there by me. Right now, i control a large information area throughout the entire Europe.
Rasputin:In Russia, things are a bit complicated. I have gained access to the government, but i still don't control all the politicians. But, i have full control over the army.
Tesla: The major scientific laboratories around the world are my domain. I have power over any discovery that is made. The peak of technology is within my reach.
Joan of Arc: So...those are good news. We control much of the world. Now what?
Flamel: We have to consider the Prophecy. Vishnu has found the girl, Arinasa. I have met her personally. She is a beautiful young woman, but for now she lacks any skills.
Freud: The problem is my friends, that Vishnu guards her. And he is doing a good job so far. Not even another Eären, Yama Dharma, managed to kill her. As you all might now, Paris was destroyed in the battle between Vishnu and Yama.
Tesla: And what's the problem? If we distract Vishnu, we should be able to land a hit on her.*
Cesare: There is also Robert. But he can be distracted too.
Machiavelli suddenly stands up.
Machiavelli: Idiots. Let me explain something to you. Let's say that one of you manages to land the blow. That one of you manages to kill Arinasa. Have you considered the fact that once she is dead, you will all be hunted by the most dangerous Eären that has ever lived? That he will find each of you, and kill you?*
Rodrigo: He is not the most dangerous Eären that ever lived. There was once, another one. Much more powerful. It's all recorded. He was known as the Dark General.
Flamel: Rodrigo. These are news for you. The Dark General...is actually Vishnu.*
Machiavelli: So get real my friends. Your aim is a bad one. Personally, i don't want to be killed by Vishnu. I prefer to remain neutral.
Machiavelli turns around to walk away.*
Flamel: You prefer neutrality, Niccolò?
Machiavelli: Yes, Nicholas. Why do you ask?
Flamel as he puts on his white gloves: No reason at all. But i was curious...if you want to be neutral...why did you gave Vishnu intel about Henry's whereabouts? Dorian Gray received instructions from me. You knew from me that Henry was kept at the Dalai Lama's shrine. Only three people had this information. Me, you and Dorian. Since Dorian hasn't reached Europe since he last went to Tibet, it's safe to assume that Henry was freed by Vishnu. And the logical conclusion is that you told him.
Machiavelli: I do not have to answer to you, Flamel.*
Machiavelli turns around again and tries to walk away. Suddenly a circle of blue flames surrounds him.
Flamel is shown with his palm pointed at Machiavelli.
Flamel: I didn't gave you permission to leave, Niccolò. I'm sorry...but you are not going anywhere!

The scene shows Arinasa and Leonardo. They are in the yard.

Leonardo: Young Arinasa, the first thing that you must knows is this one: you must be better than your enemy. Smarter, faster, stronger. More cunning. And how can you be more cunning? I will teach you today. Tell me, in your opinion it's important to know when to strike?
Arinasa: Of course.*
Leonardo smiles: Wrong. It's not important. More important is to create your opportunity to strike. If you know when to do it, but the opportunity doesn't arises...you're dead!
Arinasa: And how do i create the opportunity to strike?
Leonardo: By knowing that each enemy that you will encounter, has the body of a human being. If you know the weaknesess of the human body...
Arinasa: I can use them against gods.
Leonardo: Exactly...that's why, i will teach you how to exploit the anatomy!

The scene shows Max and Robert.

Robert as he reveals his sword: Max, you see this sword?
Max: Yeah.
Robert: This sword was not forged by the mankind.*
Max: What do you mean?!? It was forged by aliens or whatz.
Robert: No. A superior being, can use a part of his soul and shape it as a weapon. This blade was forged by my soul. And it cannot be breaked so easily.
Max: And how do you forge a blade from your soul?
Robert: By using the Azymus...the inner power of each man. You must shape your thoughts as a weapon. You must let your imagination flow outside your body. Release yourself from the chains of reality and bind yourself with freedom!
The scene shows Max with his eyes closed. He is trying very hard, as green energy is seen around his arms. Suddenly he claps his palms together, and from nothingness, a medium sized, round, made from metal and having the green color...a shield.*
Robert thinking: So the shield appeared...it's just like Claude predicted...
