THE BEGINNING
“Kah Me Ha ME Haaaaaaaaa,” Goku Yelled
“Spirit Gunnnnnn” Yuskkue Urameshi Screamed.
“Rasengannnnnn” Naruto shouted as he charged into the battle.
“Gum Gum Red Rock” Luffy wailed as he took to the sky.
I would love to start the tale with the opening of an anime battle royal, but that’s not how this story is about to begin. I Just felt like getting the story to kick off on an anime note, all the anime fans out there have a question for you. Could you picture the battle going on in your head? That’s good I hope you all enjoy the story that is about to unfold.
CHAPTER 1
PROLOGUE
Special agent Lani began to count again. 1…2…3… Bruno got to his knees stopping the count at three. He began to charge Kirito, who attempted to stop the running bull with an RKO but to no prevail. He was no Randy Orton, and was caught and tossed toward the cage. As he got up Bruno speared Kirito into the cage. Blood came out of his mouth. Bruno laughed and positioned Kirito for another powerbomb. With Kirito’s head between his legs, he began to lift his body, Kirito tried to counter, grabbing a hold of Bruno’s trunks tightly, before headbutting him in the groin. Bruno had no choice but to hold his groin region in pain, releasing his opponent. Kirito attempted to hit another DDT on Bruno but was tossed over his back to the floor.
Bruno walked over to Kirito and grabbed him by the neck to his feet. His opponent tried to swing at him, but could not reach. Bruno switched hands and hoisted Kirito in a chokeslam position, which was quickly released with two straight kicks that hit his knees. Bruno mustered enough to use his own body to ram Kirito into the cage. Bruno shoulder tackled his opponent into the cage once more. Wait a minute, I am getting ahead of myself, let us rewind time and go back to the beginning. We are going way back about 5 years before this transpired and the fate of the United States and the lives of several people were changed forever.
The Sun shone brightly on Alnwick Castle, on Greenwell Road, Alnwick, England. The grass glistened from the fresh morning dew. The birds hummed a sweet melody as if there were a concert performance.
The lake stood calm and clear, a mirror reflecting the sun and clouds. Alnwick Castle was an ancient castle that now houses the Duke of Northumberland. It is the castle of legends and stories. One story you might recognize is the famous one by the author J.K. Rowling. That’s right, the castle is the same castle they used in the Harry Potter franchise.
“What a beautiful sight? Right my dear Margarita?” Said a tall man with blue jeans and a red Harry Potter shirt.
“Honey, you have never ceased to surprise me, even 5 years later.” Margarita said, while holding her husband Antonio’s hand, and the hand of her daughter Isabella.
“Well, you and Isabella loved Harry Potter so much, and made me a fan of it. I had no choice but to take you to this castle.” Antonio said.
Tugging on her dad’s shirt. “Daddy, is this really where they filmed Harry Potter?” Isabella asked.
“Yes, it is, my princess, it really is and really is a marvelous castle. It pales in comparison to the beauty of my princess and my queen though.” Antonio said proudly.
“You always have a way with words my dear.” Margarita said blushing.
Boom! Bang! The sound of thunder came faster than a Bell X –1 jet plane.
Isabella while looking up at the sky “I do not see any rain clouds daddy, is it going to start raining?”
“Rain was not in the forecast, sweetie.” Said Margarita.
“That is not thunder my dear. Margarita dear, take Isabella and hide in the castle.” Antonio said in a worried voice.
“What’s wrong Hunnie!?” Margarita asked, scared, holding Isabella tightly in her arms.
“The day we fea
