OLD RELIGION

Many years ago, demons walked on Earth. A demon named Rauku enslaved the whole world with his teachings and principles. Everyone on Earth bows to him and his religion, but only a man far away on an island named Frainstain found a holy artifact, "HOLO". The Holo taught him new ways. He decided to free the world, so he went and gathered people. By showing the artifact, the artifact freed so many people, and new ways were introduced to people. The demon wanted to open the gate of hell upon people on earth to control hell; he unleashed the gate of hell on Earth.

Demons, monsters, beasts, and other creatures started crawling out. Frainstain and his people were afraid of seeing demons walking on earth, and there was no place to hide. Rauku, the demon god, gathered ten thousand demons to destroy a holy temple where Frainstain and his fellow brethren lived. They saw demons coming in their direction. They were afraid. The Holo spoke to him, and he did what the Holo said he should do. They gathered the weapons and placed the artifact on the weapons; it passed power into the weapons. Frainstain took a sword, and he raised it and said, "Today we redeem the world". Everyone started grabbing their weapons; they fought with all their might, and Frainstain was able to destroy the demon Rauku. Rauku's body got destroyed, and his soul was trapped. Frainstain was also dead, and he made his disciples promise they would free earth from the hands of demons. By the time the war was over, demons had spread around the whole earth. His disciples made it their job to hunt down demons and free the earth. They call themselves the "HOLONITE". And demons were still haunted to this day.

In San Francisco, down in an alley where darkness lurks, things happen in an alley. Robbery, rape, but this time it was different. A six feet lady named Caroline stood in front of a small mirrior that was packed with golden cases, having a weird sign of an old religion. Her breath blew as she enchanted a spell on the mirror. The mirror broke into eight pieces, and a red demon with blazing three eyes had spikes all over his head. He showed up, but his face wasn't clear; his face only showed in each piece. They call him Rauku."Oh, great, Rauku, I've got good news," she said.

"Do you have the artifact?" the demon said as his voice shook the whole alley.

"Yes, what do I do now?" She asked.

"Go to the world bellow; find Tisrasik, the god of the bellow world."Offer him this artifact, and he will give you the key to Green Land" He said.

"Hey cutie, are you talking to me?" A drunkard interrupted.

She looked at the drunkard with a bad look. She placed her hand on the man's hand, and he fainted."Do what I said, and the bone will be in your hands, but first I need human blood; it has been ages".

She rose the drunkard up and threw him in the mirror direction. The demon sucked the drunkard's blood, and he was lifeless. The man's body thudded on the floor as she dropped his body. The demon disappeared, and the mirror joined back together. She left the alley.As she left the alley, a great earthquake happened in the city.On a bridge,a man named Alex was in his car, hooked up in traffic. He closed his eyes as he heard various voices echoing in his ears, and the only thing he could think of was getting to his destination. Right in those echos, he noticed something was spreading beneath them. As he got down to see what was going on, an earthquake suddenly showed up. The earthquake cracked the bridge, and people started screaming as their cars were falling into the river beneath the bridge. A lady car wanted to fall into the river; he cast a spell, pulling the car backward. He wanted to close the earthquake, but the forces creating it were more powerful than him. He tried, and he saw a sign in the middle of the bridge (the same sign on the golden case). He was able to escape from the bridge, the bridge collapse, and some other places in San Francisco.

On the news:"Another unnatural disaster happened again in San Francisco Bridge and some other places. The earthquake shaken the whole city, and that is the sixth time this week that it has been recorded around the world. First in Kenya, India, Egypt, the United States of America, the UK, Russia, and San Francisco We don't know what's happening, but others are saying that Earth is taking a big turn on us," a reporter reported.Alex got to his destination, In an abandoned building, there were religious organizations that haunted down demons. The name of the organization is "The Holonites.".He entered and closed the gate. He turned to walk inside and saw a black lady named Julie standing in front of him."Welcome, Alex," said the lady.

asked, "How was your day?".

"Ugh, didn't you watch the news? A freaking earthquake happened," he said as they both walked inside.

"You know no one watches the news in this place," she said.

He opened the door, and they saw a lady sitting on a wooden chair watching the news."Except Mia," she added.

stood up as she saw Alex. She ran towards him and hugged him.Inside the building, portraits of people they adore were hanging up on the walls, including a man they worshipped, Frainstain, and his disciples."Alex," she said in relief.

"Finally, someone who cares," he said, pecking her on the head.

"Come on, Alex, we all care about you. We don't just have time to watch the news; you know what we do," Julie said.

"You guys come up here," Brook interrupted.

They went to a table, Brook tapped a button, and a hologram video of the disasters appeared.

"What do we have here, Brook?" Julie asked.

"I've been looking at the disasters that have been happening, and I don't think they are ordinary," Brook said.

"Why do you think so?" Julie asked.

"Because there is no way this type of thing can happen on its own, it has to be powered by some dark forces. The strange thing is that every time this happens, he's always sparkling; I don't know how to prove it yet".

"So what? Maybe there are just some stones shining under the floor," Mia said.

"Seriously," they all said.

"Wait! Today I was on the bridge when the earthquake happened. I tried to use my power to close the earthquake, but my magic didn't work," Alex said.

"It can be from the underworld," Julie said."But we use HOLO magic, every magic bow to it. It can't be from the Underworld or the Beyond World. It can't be from any of them," Alex said."So it's something more than the rhymes; what can it be?".They all have questions. Alex went to take a book from the library. He took the book of religion; the book has all the religions in the world. In the BC's and the AD's

"I saw a sign-a very strange sign. It's like an upside-down X," he said as he was opening the book.

"Dude, an upside-down X is a X," Julie said.

He opened a page, and he said excitedly, "Ah ha. This is the sign".He turned the book in their direction. They looked at the sign, and Mia read it."The book says this sign is a sign of Thian"."A time in the world they once worshipped a dark god named Rauku; his principles and teaching were not good. It changed the mentality of people; people who worshipped him were evil. Yeah, there is not much in this book," Mia said.

"Let go, ask the professor".

They went to a room where a white man with beards on his face sat, and he was reading a book. He was mediating; they badged in."Courtesy children," the professor said.

."Sorry, professor, but there is something we want to show," Mia said.

She placed the book in front of him."What do we have here?" He asked.

"What do you know about the Thai religion?" They asked.

"Well, a god demon brought the religion 300 BC ago. A demon enslaved the world for centuries,our holy father Frainstain was the who didn't hear or agrees with his teachings. Many years later, Frainstain found the Holo. The Holo taught him new ways that was right, so he decided to free the whole world. He made a gathering to gathered people all around for the Holi to speak to them and the Holo did. After hearing the teachings of the Holo, lots of people mind changed from their old ways. I'll give you an assignment to find out the story" the professor explained.

"So the dark god returns," Julie said.

"That is impossible; his body was destroyed, and his soul was sent to a place in the middle of the Underworld and the Below Rehym. He can't be freed; he can only communicate with someone".

"So he is communicating with someone in this rehym, and it is bringing destruction," Brook said.

"Yeah, maybe his presence brought destruction; he is the demon god of destruction. Perhaps his soul can still bring destruction to earth," the professor agreed.

"But he seems to be communicating with someone; who can it be?" They wondered.

"Maybe he has an Avatar; some gods who can't exist in the physical realms use Avatars; the main job of an Avatar is to awaken their god. I am afraid if Rauku awakens, that would be the end of this rehym," the professor answered.

"But there is nothing we can do or should; we don't mingle with godlings affairs. Our job is to bring down demons and monsters from the other realms. I advise you not to try to mingle in this matter; these are only your facts and thoughts. Leave it to the leaders of Holonite; I'll contact them, and we will see what to do," he scolded them.

"Fine," they all agreed and left his presence.

They all sit on a chair, thinking of different things. Alex came in and dropped a bag."I got all our things ready, our weapons; let go find what's wrong," he said.

"What are you doing? The professor ordered us not to go or mingle in godlings affairs," Julie opposed.

"Scoffs, since when do we listen to professors?".

"Our job is to haunt down demons, not to investigate".

"Three hundred deaths have been recorded; this person is causing more deaths than five demons can cause. If we don't try to stop this, there will be more destruction," Alex said.

"I'm with him; we can't just sit here while a dark god is trying to awaken."We need to do something," Mia agreed.

Julie scoffed in mockery. "Well, I can't argue with you, Mia; you'll accept anything he says. Our job is to hold San Francisco. Brook, are you with me?".

"Nah, I am with Alex on this one; we should haunt down this person before he creates more unnatural disasters," Brook said.

"Where would you find this unknown person? Where do you start from?" Julie asked."We start at a place called the shrine," Alex said.

Caroline was on a train leading to the below world.
