Zed vs Cataclysm: A New Organization Rises Out Of The Shadows.
It was in darkness he was born and it was in darkness he saw the light, He saw a strange face in the shadows one that he would never forget, the one that freed him and also caused him the most pain. It was under the light of a full moon that Zed looked up at the sky and felt as if something was missing in his life. A side of him he had not known for a very long time. He asked his shadow "Whom do you follow?" with no reply he walked off into the night.
That very same night under the light of the moon a darkness was lurking, Looking for a worthy soul to claim as its own. A young man by the name of Drath living in a small village just belong the mountains of the Kinkou Monastery was training with his brother. Drath had always been fascinated with the students of the Kinkuo Monastery, But with his small built, lack of stamina and his doubtful thinking he would always stay in the back while looking on feeling pity for himself.
Drath brother Nii was somewhat of a good fighter as he was taught martial arts for 2years by their now deceased father. Nii would always try and motivate his bigger brother Drath to try and keep moving forward but Drath would always feel as if he was been mocked for being the weaker one. On that moon lit night Drath made his way up the mountains to the Kinkou Monastery.
He was overwhelmed with emotions of sadness, anger and a vengeance to prove to himself that he's not weak! Drath shouted " I'm not just going to be another one on the side that this world just allows to rot away! I will be something!! My name will be remembered I will be SOMEBODY!". As Drath made it further up the mountain his weak body began to fail him, his breathing became a task, his chest was closing on him.
As he fell on his knees in tears all his emotions left as the only thing that he could feel now is despair. "You foolish human, you're nothing but a burden to the planet itself!! Why won't you hurry up die" A voice said from the shadows, Drath respond "Shut the hell up!! You nothing of me or my life!!". As the voice replied "Then show me your life!! Show me what it's worth!! Show me THE LIGHT!!. Drath then fell flat on the ground.
Next morning he woke up in his bed as his brother sat beside him "Sorry I followed you last night, I saw you leaving and got worried. Sigh, I lost you for sometime lucky I kept searching until I found you huh?". Drath turned his head in silence as if he didnt heard a word his brother was saying. He then remembered the voice that he spoke with but he passed it off as an effect of the fatigue.
Nii would call Drath for the daily training, Drath thought to himself it's just going to be another day of failure. Nii asked Drath about the strange marking on his forehead an arms but Drath was clueless as he said "its nothing". Nii would begin his lessons but Drath would stare his brother with a blank look on his face, Drath was no more?!?. Nii " Brother are you OK?? You seemed to be troubled". Drath "Troubled you say?? Ahh is that what you call it? HA!, How about I teach you a lesson today Brother?".
Drath would proceeded to display skills unlike anything Nii has seen before with the look of shock and confusion he asked " W-when did you....How d-did you....Drath.....". Drath "Hahahahaha Drath?? Drath?? so this is the light, The light that I must claim for myself". Nii "What the hell! Drath what are you....". Drath would proceed to impale his brother through the abdomen. "Don't worry I didn't kill you! Just enough pain so you'll pass out, Anyways this is goodbye brother I must go find the one that masters the shadow".
Drath would wonder about the mountains and small villages for 4months gathering information on the one that masters the shadow, finding his name to be Zed. He would then meet up with a young girl full of life and charisma. "You young lady, what might your name be?? You look interesting!". The young lady " I don't usually talk to strange men! Buuut my name is Akali". Drath "I see, would you happen to know where I can find someone named Zed".
Akali was shocked and reluctant to answer " Hmmm here's what, if you can beat me I'll tell you what I know, Hehehe but if you cant you're gonna be dead meat!". Drath smiled at the young lady " Ignorance, the human can't see what stands before her". Akail proceed to use her smoke screen (Shroud) as her first move, Drath stands looking on.
She dashed out of the smoke with blinding speed as Drath would give a huge grin and open his arms as wide as he could " The potential you have is beyoung the avrage human but this isn't a game for me" He would then grab her by the hair and slam her to the ground!. Akali was lost for words as everything happened so fast she didn't even see him move. "Now tell me where can I find the master of shadows?"
Akali replied "Honestly I dont know but you don't go looking for Zed.... He'll find you!" Drath looked in her eyes and saw that she wasn't lying. 'OH well fine, I will be waiting for him" Drath then made his way back up the mountains to an usually high forested area where he would wait for Zed. He waited patiently, As the sun set he would feel the presences of a shadow lurking.
"So you have come!! Master of shadows! You stink of blood, You're the one that freed me that night!! You caused me to see the light YOU woke me from my slumber! Didn't the old man warned you before you ripped is head off?? Hehehe oh well, Now you'll learn the consequences of your actions, The light Ionia WILL BE MINES!!". Zed looked at Drath "You........you think you can defeat me?? what a joke! The old man had it coming you know nothing! I would kill you quick and put your rambling to an end".
Zed would send out his shadows as Drath would flash step toward him! They both clashed as Darth seems to be making weapons out of the air, Zed would send out three shadows one with a dagger, one with a shuriken and the other placed on a tree. Drath looked on carefully as he can not underestimate Zed. Drath would try flash stepping towards Zed once again but he was only falling for Zed's trap.
Darth heard a laughter coming form every direction as Zed said " You have been marked for DEATH!!! My cold blades sinking into your neck will be the last thing to feel". Zed and his shadow would soon overwhelm Drath showing him the true power of the shadows. Zed "Before you die, Tell me who are you? Are you a Noxian?!!". Drath " I....am.....CATACLYSM!!" As Drath finally shows Zed his true power and reviled his real name "I am Shingen the tiger of kai my power is........well no need in telling you that, Master Of Shadows!".
Shingen " I was born in the same place as your shadows IN DARKNESS! WE! wanted a way out but they conspired against me! The old man keep me bound for years but then YOU released me. I can final get my revenge and claim the light of Ionia!!". Zed was lost for words as he had not a clue what this person was talking about. Zed's rage knew no bonds his thirst for blood could of been smelled throughout the forest "no one will be taking Ionia" Zed said. It was a fears battle! Most of the forest was almost destroyed, As the sun came up Zed most prized pupil showed up saying" Master Zed, Enough playing we have more important business that needs taken care of" . Zed "This has gone on long enough! The Order Of Shadows will now consider you a high priority target, If you are Noxian I would break every last one of you'll. No matter how many come...YOU ALL WILL KNOW MY BLADES" said Zed as he slipped into the shadows. Shingen "Noxian?? What is that? Anyways.....from this day on I will gather many more and train them, The Hands Of Cataclysm will destroy you the light of Ionia will soon be mine!".
"What is Shingen and what is his power?? Why was my master keeping him sealed away? The markings on his arms and forehead, why did it look so familiar?" Zed thought to himself as he slipped deeper into the shadows.
