[Cano brings Calio to an empty desert place, while Dynamite left behind at the labs... Suddenly the amulet light up but no one answer. 4 weeks left until the Carnival arrives... They still don't know how to change Syah back to his normal form]
{9:00 AM (The Past) Monday 2.3.20XX}
[Cano wakes Calio up by flexing his muscle. It's to shining that it reflects the sun straight to Calio eyes]
Cano: Good Morning
Calio: Argh!!! My eyes!!
Cano: Hahaha
Calio: Can you at least wake me up... In the normal way
Cano: If I do that, what's the fun of having this big muscle
Calio: show off...
[After the Calio almost pass out yesterday, Cano decided that they find a place to sleep and training tomorrow. Completely forgetting that they left Dynamite behind alone in the containment cell]
Calio: So... Are we going to training today
Cano: Relax Leo, before that we need to make sure you learned we can practice without knowing nothing
Calio: How many times I should say... My name is not Leo, it Calio
Cano: What's the difference?
Calio: It spells with "I" instead of "E"
Cano: I see no, difference
Calio: How dense can this guy be...
Cano: Well anyway, we need to go outside
Calio: Why? I thought you just going to teach me something. We can just do it inside
Cano: ...
[Cano pulls Calio outside and straight to a place where's there are no people nor buildings]
Calio: That's... Was weird
Cano: Someone is watching us... We need to be extra careful
Calio: (Yea, no wonder... Seeing a kid with someone big as an ox walking around)
Cano: You saying something?
Calio: Uh! No, nothing!
Cano: Aight... Anyway, today we'll about how to activate your power. I'm going to ask you a question have you ever seen someone active their power?
Calio: Yes
Cano: Who's it?
Calio: Frog
Cano: Ah, I see Dynamite the guy with nature elemental. What did he say?
Calio: I remember correctly... It starts with F... Flos?
Cano: Close... Flos is the move name. If I'm correct his power activation either "Naturae" or "Enumeratio"
Calio: Isn't that Latin?
Cano: Correct, in the ancient time they use Latin word to activate the power because there's only Latin language at that time
Calio: Then... That means your power is...
Cano: The sun
Calio: ..., Nothing happens I thought when you say it will activate
Cano: Hahahaha, I told you it only works in Latin. Here let me show you
[Cano stands straight and spread his leg]
Cano: "Solus"!
[He scream as loud as the thunder, suddenly a shine so bright appear it almost as the sun just lands to the earth. The heat is tremendous it could melt metal]
Calio: Whoa...
Cano: Hahahaha!!! You think is this is cool? Just wait and see what Syah could do
Calio: ...
Cano: Oh, shit... (I upset him)
[The shine just disappear, and it when back to normal]
Cano: No no no... I didn't mean to upset you
Calio: No... It just I'm worried about him
Cano: Leo, don't worry about him... I'm sure he's fine
Calio: ... Yea I'm me too... I'm decided then
Cano: Hmm?
Calio: I'll I trained nonstop starting today...
Cano: I glad to hear that (He sure sounds like Leo...)
[Suddenly they wholesome time got interrupted by someone]
???: So, this is where you went...
Cano: Oh no... I don't like that voice...
Calio: Who's there (it sounds familiar)
[A silhouette of a woman appear in the shadow, walking closer to them]
Cano: Please... Don't be her...
Calio: (I can feel... The unpleasant aura surrounding me)
???: You... Will... Regret, leaving today...
[It's Flower she's dragging Dynamite with her, who still out conscious. it looks like Dynamite just got beat up by someone]
Flower: Cano!!!
Cano: Eh... Flower I can explain this
Flower: Too late!!
Cano: Shit!
[Suddenly it snap Calio his instinct just activate out of nowhere]
Calio: "Ignis"
[Calio burst into flame... Disturbed Flower who was about to land a punch at Cano]
Flower: Oho... So this is what you been doing Cano
Cano: Huh? Wait what
Flower: Mind if I test him
Cano: Wait, don't!
[Ignoring Cano, Flower rush toward Calio]
Flower: "Naturae- Amazon Gladio"
[A sword appears on Flower hands. The sword seems to be made out of wood and a long leaf, even though it looks fragile the sword can capitate someone head]
[Flower runs straight to Calio ready to swing her sword. But Calio just shows his palm gesture it to block]
Calio: "Ignis- Digitabulum"
[In flash Calio hand getting incase in some sort of gloves. Flower realizes the glove but it's too late to just go back, She swings her sword hit Calio's hand. Calio grabs the sword and breaks it in half... Cano from afar shocked seeing these phenomena... A boy who just knows he has the Fire elemental just break The Amazon Sword]
[Then Cano realize something]
Cano: Calio stop! You breaking your limit!
[He said that while running toward Calio. Flower sees this opportunity to beat up Calio]
Flower: Take this!
[Distracted Calio, he try to block her attack. But it just a mere decoy, she summons another sword and ready to attack Calio again]
[Suddenly a Vine slither in stopping Flower movement]
Dynamite: Huff... Puff... "Enumeratio- Vinea" Just in time...
[It was Dynamite. After he uses his power he falls to the ground... Just at the time for Cano to use his move]
Cano: "Solus- FLASH"!
Flower: No! I'm almost there!!!
[Cano shine brightly and Flash both of them making them out of consciousness]
Cano: Flower... What has got into you...
[Time passes It's already night... Dynamite the first one to wake. Cano already set up a tent and campfire for them to rest. Flower and Calio is sleeping while Cano sitting right beside them]
Cano: Oh... You already wake up?
Dynamite: Yea... Are they going to be ok?
Cano: Don't worry I already take care of it. You can rest assured, here some coffee
Dynamite: Thank you, Cano...
[Silent feel the area while Cano fuel the fire]
Dynamite: Sorry about what just happened...
Cano: You don't need to feel sorry...
Dynamite: But-
Cano: That's who's Flower is...
Dynamite: Hmm? What you mean...?
Cano: Heh... Let me tell you some story when... Syah still in the team...
Dynamite: *Gasp* Yes I would like to hear Syah background
Cano: Hahaha, but I only know some from that mysterious guy
Dynamite: I guess we in the same boat then
Cano: Heh, 10 years ago the world still believes in Elementals... Our enemy was The Darkness Kingdom... The King still at that time was a tyrant, he forced everyone to embrace the forbidden power of Darkness... Corruption. Anyone who infected by corruption will become someone else completely change their personality just like what happen to Syah...
Dynamite: Is there any way to fix it?
Cano: Dyna... Relax, I'm about to get, to that part
Dynamite: Sorry I'm too excited
Cano: Anyway, Syah is the first commander he also the first mix elementals. Back then there's only pure elemental, mix elementals were a disgrace... Yet Syah shows them wrong... I'm his acquaintance, his right-hand man... But time moves so fast after Syah became the first commander he started to distance himself from... He didn't know that I'm always right beside him. That's what I'm thinking of him at that time. One day I met Flower... She was the most beautiful and strongest person I have ever seen beside Syah... I try to get to her, but I saw Syah catch with her first... They were happy with each other... Emotion got the best of me... I ran away just to meet my worse nightmare... The King Of Darkness, I was scared but it doesn't stop me from fighting him. "No need to fight I know you what you desire the most..." He spoke to me, his voice was... Soft yet disturbing... I got no will speak after that... He touches me on the shoulder and he grab it, like the eagle talon's gripping me tight... I can feel something going through my blood vessel...
[Flashback to the story]
Cano: Argh!! What did you do to me!!
TKOD: Hahaha... When the time comes you'll see for yourself
[Syah and Flower saw The King Of Darkness but they were too late he already left... They rush to Cano who in the agony]
Syah: Cano!! Are you alright
Cano: Get, away! From me!!!
[A light force out of Cano body... The shockwave pushes Syah and Flower away]
Syah: Cano!! Wake up you not yourself!!
Cano: Forget about me!! Like you always do!! Don't come near me!!
Flower: Cano, please we're your friends
Cano: No!! You guys throw me away!!
Syah: Flower... It's no use. Get away from him!! The Corruption already in him
[Flower get near Cano anyway closer and closer]
Syah: Flower!!!
[Cano smash the ground throwing another shockwave]
Syah: "Aqua- Imbbulla"
[A Syah's left hand became water and grab Flower away from the shockwave... When Flower land onto Syah hand she already passes out... Syah looks back and, Cano he already calm down]
[Syah realize what Flower did]
Syah: Flower!! What have you done release The Corruption now you can't hold it, give it to me instead!
Flower: Hehe, It's my turn to be the hero...
Syah: Flower!!
[Back to the present]
Cano: I was too weak at that time... Because of that... Everyone down looks at me... They were right it's all my fault. But he thinks otherwise... He does everything to save Flower while I'm just standing there ashamed of myself...
Dynamite: But... Flower seems alright I don't see anything wrong with her... Does that mean Syah finds a way to save her?
Cano: No... Flower wake up one day as nothing has happened... But I know the corruption still there inside her no one believes me... Even Syah.
Flower: I believe you...
[Flower interrupted them]
Dynamite: You were awake this whole time!
Cano: How long have you been there!
Flower: I heard the whole story...
[Flower sit down at the campfire with them... Showing her arm a black spot]
Flower: This is... The corruption spot
Cano: That's the same size as the one on my shoulder on that day!
Flower: Yes... I apparently can absorb the corruption... that's my family specialty. That's why Syah pick me in the mission
Cano: That... What you talking about, back then isn't it...
Flower: Look like someone had an issue with the past
Cano: ...
Flower: Look, Cano... I know why you lost yourself that night... I don't blame you, Syah have been busy... That's why we lost contact with him
Dynamite: Wait... This whole time you guys didn't get contact with Syah?
Cano: After 10 years we found him... He doesn't want us to follow him so he cut every contact with us
Flower: I slip the amulet inside his jacket
Dynamite: You hid it good... So after he left the command who take it?
Cano: Rysand... The second in command after Syah
Dynamite: It... Make sense now
Flower: Hmm?
Dynamite: Now I know, why Syah want to save him
Flower: Who?
Dynamite: David...
Cano: Who the hell is David
Dynamite: We don't know his real name but his codename is IceRay
Flower: I know... IceRay Third in Command
[Out of the blue... The tent shake... Flower throw a bunch of sharp leave toward the tent]
Flower: Who's there!! Show yourself!!
???: Opps, look like I been found. Hehehe
Dynamite: That voice...
[It's David he was hiding in the tent with Calio... He picks up Calio and put him on his shoulder]
David: Good Day, ladies, and gentlemen... Let me introduce myself. My name is Jestring and I'll be taking this, now if you excuse me
[David try to run away but Cano already behind him]
David: I see... So this is how we going to play
[David pulls up his hand and snap his finger... Suddenly Rellik come out of nowhere and kick Cano at his back]
Rellik: How's going, Cano... Long time no see?
Cano: It's you...
Rellik: Flower... You here too. Oh, how flattered I am today to see my old friends back together... But we don't have time... We need to introduce our new friend to someone important
[Rellik and David turn around and walk away. But their movement was stopped by Dynamite vines]
Dynamite: You going nowhere with Calio!!!
Rellik: He... Hehehe...
[In the flash... Rellik goes behind Dynamite ready to snap his neck but were push by Flower instead]
Rellik: Ceh, How annoying... I see you two want to taste my power... Sure! Come here!
[Meanwhile Cano facing with David]
Cano: Drop him...
David: Heh...
[David drops Calio on the floor... Cano instantly look at Calio body in the meantime David about to kick Cano but he blocks it with one arm]
David: Ohoho. Not bad...
[David backflip back away from Cano]
Cano: "Solus"
[An aura of flame-emitting around Cano his body from big slowly turning small making so agile yet strong]
Cano: Don't you dare underestimate the power of Sun
[Meanwhile at the carnival... A person is sitting on the chair watching them fighting while moving his hand seem like controlling David...]
Jestring: Heh, he makes his body small to absorb more Sunlight from the moon at night
???: Jestring... Stop playing with the enemy bring him faster...
Jestring: Oh, c'mon now boss we got more time... Our original plan to arrive at the town first remember
???: You... Always a mess...
