Biohuman



Sakura trees blossomed with pink petals as Lee Seng's vision came to him. Pink petals danced, drawing Lee Seng's attention. He spun around in his spot, catching glimpses of the world around him. He was on some sort of bridge with an endless view of the sea all around him. Two suns hung high in the sky. 

Lee Seng turned back to his original spot and noticed Keng standing at the other end of him. Keng took a while longer to register Lee Seng. He looked off into the endless sea, taking a short moment to appreciate it before frowning and looking away. Keng's head hung low like the water had reminded him of someone.

"Keng." Lee Seng called out, jogging over to him. Keng snapped out of it and looked up.

"Lee, how are you here?" Keng asked, moving forward. The twins met and checked each other out. 

"You aren't hurt." Lee Seng whispered. "What is this place?"

"What is this place?" A soft voice repeated Lee Seng's question. Lee Seng and Keng turned in the same direction, noticing a growing energy. It was a large Fox with many tails. "It is different for everyone but this seems to have joined two ideas together: Daros and Earth."

"Who are you?" Keng asked the large Fox. 

"I should be asking you that question. Who am I?" The large Fox asked. Lee Seng studied the Fox. It was a multi-colored Fox who looked like a Fox yet not like one at all. 

"Gold and silver." Lee Seng pointed out the colors. "But then those tendrils… and that purple energy… Are you—"

"Ah, you understand what I am." The large Fox nodded. "Yes, I am you. I am the embodiment of you two. So many identities bottled in between two people… All stemming from you, Lee Seng Chang… Tell me, who are you?"

"What do you mean by that?" Keng asked. The large Fox turned to Keng and raised their paw. In an instant, Keng flashed into a bright silver flame. The large Fox pulled Keng over to them and Lee Seng watched as Keng's soul entered the large Fox's head.

"What did you do to him?" Lee Seng asked, stepping forward. "Give him back!" Lee Seng reached forward, only to be swept off his feet. The large Fox pulled Lee Seng up to his face.

"He will witness what we all turn into." The large Fox answered. "Answer my question… Who are you?"

"Who am I?" Lee Seng whispered. He thought for a moment, unsure what he should tell the Fox. "Why's the world Earth and Daros? I-I thought I got rid of my attachments to Earth… T-there shouldn't be—"

"You tell yourself that, but here you are still searching for answers."

"But I'm not! I-I just… Am I supposed to just ignore these questions and move on with my life? I-I can't do that…"

"Why?"

"I don't know."

"Why?"

"I… I don't!"

"Why?"

"I… I just don't! Why do you ask me the same question?"

"Why do you refuse to answer it?" The large Fox asked. He tilted his head and turned to Lee Seng to witness the Sakura petals dance with the endless sea. "Everything moves as it should, yet you refuse to move from your spot."

"I don't know what you want me to say." Lee Seng sighed in frustration. "W-what? You want me to say I want qu-questions because I secretly feel bad everything that's happened in the last two years?" The world around them began to grow dark. The Fox watched the clouds pull in, waiting for Lee Seng to continue. "How could I not feel bad? Especially after I made friends. Liv lost her grandmother and village. Liz, Evan, Manny and Ritsuka had to leave everything behind for me…

"At first I wanted to prove to my Father that I'm better off on my own. That I didn't need him or anyone… then I found my friends and…" Lee Seng felt something get caught in his throat. The skies began to cry, raining down on Lee Seng and the large Fox. "I felt myself changing. I felt the hatred in my heart… The hurt… It all drifted away… I wanted to be happy, but everyone kept reminding me I'm different. I'm the Creator's son who failed. I'm the Creator's son who lost his mother… I'm the Creator's son who doesn't want anything to do with his own Dad…

"All I want," Lee Seng whispered. "Is to be me. Without the expectations. Without the eyes on me. Without my Dad's expectations. I just want to be me." Lee Seng's heart began to glow. Golden threads flew out of his heart as the skies poured harder. The large Fox pulled Lee Seng closer into him. 

"Then that is all you shall be. You." The Fox spoke. The cold rain faded and the warmth of the Fox pooled around him. A bright light washed over Lee Seng and Keng flew straight for Lee Seng. He giggled, entering Lee Seng and letting the energy follow suit.

[Evolution has begun. Parameters have been finalized.]

[Lee Seng has chosen to be… himself.]

Lee Seng and Keng giggled as the energies wrapped tightly around him. The light cracked, filling with air as Lee Seng flew out of the light. He laughed as the wind whipped in his face and he landed on the destroyed road. 

[The title "Savior" and "Identity" has been attached to you.]

[You have completed your journey! Immortality has been achieved! Please create one skill of your choosing!]

"Create a skill?" Lee Seng whispered.

"Whoa! I didn't think you'd get that lucky!" Keng appeared next to Lee Seng, peeking over his shoulder. "What're you gonna do?"

"What're our abilities right now?" Lee Seng pulled up his skills and scanned them. 

"Runecaster, Light Champion, Cosmic Being, Mutant Manipulator, Eleven." Keng answered. "Huh… The rest of our abilities disappeared! What the hell? We worked so hard for those!" 

"You're next to me, too, so that means you kept your form." Lee Seng looked at Keng.

"Oh, you're right." Keng slapped his cheeks. "Why? Didn't Shapeshift give us the opportunity to do that in conjunction with Twin Pact?" Lee Seng shrugged. 

"I'm not going to think about it… Hmm, but I think these skills basically sum us up. You cast runes, we both use light magic and cosmic stuff… I can manipulate abilities and mutate them and then there's Eleven… Is that my Biohuman stuff on top of… my Biohuman stuff?"

"It makes sense…" Keng wrapped his arm around Lee Seng. "These are us. Well, I never really used your Biohuman abilities enough so  I wouldn't know… I did mutate someone once, but I think that's it…"

"You mutated someone?" Lee Seng smiled. Keng nodded.

"I helped Ritsuka on his way. That's all. You already planted the seed. Enough about that, what stupid thing are we making?"

"Hmmm… It should be something that will tell everyone it's you and I…" Lee Seng tapped his chin.

"The bright light was over here!" A stranger shouted. Keng unhooked his arm and turned. Purple-eyed Deimons came to a stop and raised their weapons and magic. 

"It's the people we were told to watch out for!" Another Deimon shouted. "Get them!" Keng sighed and waved his hand in the air. Stars bloomed into existence and fired out at the Deimons, killing them instantly.

"Whoa! I didn't even think about doing that! I was going to let out gravity blasts but it turned to stars!" Keng shouted. Lee Seng turned and watched stars twinkle in place. Keng hpapily turned to Lee Seng, intrigued by what he found out. 

"I guess our abilities evolved." Lee Seng glanced back at the screen. "What's one thing that represents you and I well?"

"Well, I guess something I think about first is our unique bond. We share one Soul yet have two bodies. It's an interesting concept."

"What if we do something with that?" Lee Seng asked. "Soul… Something about the soul…" Hydrosphere and Sun blade summoned themselves. They floated in front of Lee Seng and Keng as if they had somehow triggered that to happen.

"I think we're onto something." Keng grabbed Hydrosphere and watched it turn to a blue wisp. Lee Seng reached for Sun blade and watched it turn into fiery wisp. The two wisps began to dance around each other, waiting for the twins to finish. Keng snapped his fingers and turned to Lee Seng. "Soul Home. A place where we can both access and go to each other at any time and also store our weapons."

"Hmmm… Interesting. Why don't we do that?" Lee Seng began to scribble the name in. 

"What, really?" Keng tilted his head. "That easy?"

"We should be able to come to each other's aid at any time. It all started with you and I, so why can't it be just that? A forever gateway to each other." Lee Seng smiled, watching Keng's face grow blank. Keng didn't know what to say to that. Lee Seng hit the button and a new pop-up appeared on their screen.

[Soul Home has been created! The parameters of the skill were set. 'A gateway to each other' was added as a description. Adding more parameters to the skill…. Rolling typing… Unique roll achieved!]

The two weapon wisps split from each other and entered Lee Seng and Keng. They felt their energies skyrocket and then subside. 

[Soul Home has finished!]

[Soul Home works as following:]

The users must be soul-linked and bound to each other. They can teleport to each other at-will at any time. Using the parameters of 'Void Storage,' Soul Home will store any 'Bonded' items into it. 'Bonded' items will share the 'bond' tag. To read more about the 'bond' tag, click here.

Unique Magical Effect has been added due to multi-affinities! 

"Well," Lee Seng swiped the screen away. "Let's go find my Dad."
