"Yes.... now to explain a bit about myself, i am Vulcust, one of the only members to have make it through the long starve. Your most likely wondering about the starve no? Well the starve was the huge lack of human flesh consumption due to a stronger police system, and sometimes, the lack of human inhabitance. I was able to find a location were i could feast freely, and I am the only member alive. Sadly, king Heptus died in the starve, being no humans on his planet, on Primus. Your job, is to expand us, make us grow as it said in the Holy Pages. You are our only hope, mister?" Asked Vulcust.
"Volatilis Fatum," Fatum said, wide eyed.
"Mr. Fatum.... you are the Cult's only hope." Continued Vulcust.
"I understand, my job.... and I will do my best, to restart the cult.." Said Fatum, disconnected from the conversation.
"Good.... good... now devour me. You have all the information you need to rebuild in those pages, sadly i can not do much more. I wish you luck and hope on your long quest to rebuild and reach our goals. One more thing, reread the pages, and then the back of the last page. I think you'll fine the last page.... Related to you, if i might add. Now... EAT ME!" Vulcust yelled.
Fatum did, as he requested. He lunged at Vulcust and took a long hard bite out of his arm, he did not laugh, or shiver, he only laughed. His arm was gone at this point, and now he had moved on to his belly area. organs started to fall out, and Fatum knew he was dead. Blood flowed and filled the floor around them, and soon, Vulcust's bones only stood. Fatum wiped off his mouth, and went over to the shelf, to reread the papers, he did so and then reached the last page. On the last page, he found a note on the back, and gasped. It read: To all readers, about 18 months back, a fair lady came to this planet and I asked her to join our cult, she accepted! She got pregnant about 10 months ago and now we have a child! He will be given some special shots when he's older, to erase his memory of the planet, and then were all going to launch off in an explorer headed Crete to speak with Vulcust! If i don't make it through this starve, I only hope my son ends up in the cult somehow.... may the starve end soon.
This is why Vulcust had needed him, he, Volatilis Fatum, was actually Volatilis Fatum Vilcamere, the son of Heptus, the heir to the cult's throne, no.... he was the current king.
"So.... what exactly is this "Cult" about," Asked the zoner girl.
"Well..... how do i explain this.... Eat this delicious..... sandwich," Said Volatilis.
Volatilis passed a small sandwich over to the zoner girl.
"Would you like anything on it?" Said Volatilis.
"Ummm.... no, I like my sandwiches plain," Replied the zoner girl in an unsure tone.
"Fantastic...." Volatilis sneered.
She took a bite, and swallowed. She dropped the sandwich.
"What... is this made of?" Said the zoner girl in a disgust that looked as though she might die.
"Why.... it's made of zoner!" Said Volatilis.
"WHAT??!?!?" Screamed the zoner girl.
Volatilis grabbed her face and opened her mouth. He pulled out a vial from his robe pocket, and emptied it on the girl's tongue. It stuck like a statue and faint screams emerged from her mouth. He threw her out the door and on to a step.
"Go ahead.... live. Oh and, if you need any help, you know where I am," Laughed Fatum.
This was the tenth member he'd been able to recruit, or.... trap. It was always the same, they eat some human, get splashed with the vials mixture, and are thrown out the door. Then, after about 2 days, they show up wanting to know more about the cult, and before you know it, they read the pages and offically join.
1 day later, the zoner girl showed up.
"Help me.... I.... ate my brother..." She said with great sadness.
"AHAHAHHAHA, my oh my, your back! Well, are you ready to join?" He asked.
"Ye....I think so.." He stuttered, having no knowledge of her fate.
"Read these," He said as he threw a clump of aged papers on her lap.
And so the usual ritual happened, she became interesting and decided to take an oath to the cult, success again for Mr. Fatum.
Volatilis asked each of his 10 members the same question, "Are you all ready to become part of our Holy way of life, our Holy cult?"
"We are."
"Are you ready to consume the delicious and delicate flesh of man, and women only?"
"We are."
"Are you ready to serve your god, and your god only?"
"We are."
"Are you ready to praise lord Heptus for his mighty sacrifice?"
"We are."
"Consume the flesh."
All 10 of the members lunged at the women upon the altar, in front of the star symbol scorching the wall. Her eyeless face was burning with fear as blood spilled down the sides of the stone, streaming violently. They were part of the Holy one, they were part of the cult.
For over a month, Fatum had been testing antimatter, and he had discovered a breakthrough. He made a mini jump gate able to send them flying light years, in minutes. He mounted it on his Rogue Gunboat, and signaled to his newly appointed members for lift off. He took off, as fast as his thrusters could take him. He passed through the clouds and into the heavens of space.
"Alright, I'm engaging my antimatter transmitter Heptains," Said Fatum into his microphone.
"Roger King Fatum, your good from down here," Replied Kornatus, the first member he recruited to the Cult.
"Engaging... NOW!" Yelled Fatum.
The force of the antimatter was almost unimaginable, he entire body lunged back as he traveled through a tunnel of black and purple, then his genius showed, he pushed a button on his chair, which activated his navigation system WHILE traveling faster then light itself! Then everything stopped, and he was overlooking a large, orange planet, that looked as though it was covered with lava. In fact it was. He entered the atmosphere, his ship just barely holding on, he made it through. His ship smashed on the ground creating a small crater. He exited the ship and just glared at a 40 foot gate built on dry, dry ground. Clordostein, the capital of Heptainus, the domain of Heptus. He looked to his left. Off in the distance he viewed a giant Volcano. He looked to the right, but all he saw was a deep red sea of magma. He was about to step into the gate when something caught his eye. He say a large metallic box, with 3 skeletons lying over it. He went over to see it, he... had to feel it. He pressed his finger to it. A sound emitted through the entire planet, a screeching sound. Volatilis realized that this was the bomb the resistance had founded. But why was there no one here, and why hadn't the bomb went off all those years ago, either way it was going to now. He rushed over to his ship almost screaming. He jumped aboard and started the engines, the screeching grew louder. He took off, and the sound became almost caused his ears to bleed. He was about 4 miles above the ground now, when suddenly the screeching stopped. It exploded. He just made it out of the atmosphere when shards of the giant beast started to break away. He tried to engage his antimatter launcher, but it was jammed. Shards were nearing his ship, and he had to leave. Finally, he was in the tunnel of purple and black.
"So.... what was it like? You know before it blew up?" asked Jagani, the last recruited member of the cult.
"Dry... everything was dry..." Replied Fatum,"Although I take this as a sign from god, that were not meant to live there, but.... were meant to live HERE..."
"Ah.... so I suppose we just keep recruiting?"
"By God's command, yes," He said, before taking a large bite out of a child's dead leg.
Today I and the cult captured a zoner ship, and have been flying all over the planet. I also have create an outfit for the cult members, it goes as follows:
A Black hood
A black robe, connecting to two pant legs.
A black cape with our symbol on it.
A Plate of body armor on the chest with our symbol imprinted on it.
An automated Voice changer located on the mouth, with oxygen making, and eating capabilities.
Black boots, and gloves.
Red trim all over the suit.
I also found out that 1 cult member is alive. Plavern located on gammu, is currently trying to do what I am doing, but only has 2 members. He said he had found 3 missings pages from the group of Holy Pages. He sent me these. The package arrived today and I read them, they were as followed:
Chapter 7: Why we Fly?
By the holy command of god, he feels that by being in space, we are closer to him, so we will do so. We will fly the highest and the fastest of everyone, for it is what the Holy one commands of us.
Chapter 8: Rule of the new land
Although we are suppose to eat everyone who does not follow us, the holy god has given me an option. He told me that there were people who would deliver other humans to us, for a money. If we didn't eat the delivers, we would have more men to feast off of. The holy god commands me to not eat EVERYONE who opposes us, but only those who consider us the evil of the universe, or shoot us. Therefor, I am simple saying, by gods command, that we allow these people to deliver humans to us. The other rules have not changed.
Chapter 9: Heptainus
If the planet of Heptainus is still alive, we must find it, for it holds our holy god. God told me that he had put himself into a necklace on Heptainus, and was needing rescue. He also told me to build him a giant statue, in his honor, the size of a planet. If we accomplished this, we might be granted immortality. By the Holy lord, if we find planet Heptainus, we must recover that necklace, and place it on the Altar, and pray to the holy thing to release god. Sadly, i have learned that we are much to far away to make the journey with our current status, maybe if we had more materials, we could do it. But with the Holy god's light, anything is possible, even crazy journeys across the stars.
"I have called this meeting of the high cult to order under the might of Heptus, and God. We have a problem, the zoners we are robbing/eating are not supplying us enough. I knew a group, over in a system called Alpha, called the outcast, I think we should start and alliance with them? Ideas?" Asked Fatum.
"Well.... Has god approved this?" Asked Jagani.
"I have asked, and he thinks it is a great idea," Replied Fatum, "Also, we could set up a network of human trading on Malta. We could buy Pilots from the outcast in exchange for money! A perfect plan, and has god's approval. I know you are also wondering about our underground storage/worship area, well, we can rebuild. Now, for a big surprise to all of you but one, KORNATUS."
They followed him, all the way down a cavern tunnel, and into a large open area, where the sun could be seen. But in the middle of the opening, was a small round ship, that looked oddly like a baseball.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, i present to you, our way to Malta, the Cultist Sleeper!" Yelled Kornatus.
"Everyone in!" Volatilis added.
The inside of the ship was like the outside, round. There were 11 pods all around the interior, one for each member.
"Choose one, and get it," Said Fatum.
Each member slowly walked around the ball until they found a pod they liked. Fatum sat in the one up front.
"I know this is on short notice everyone," Fatum said through the pod microphone, "But were leaving for Malta today.... LAUCNHING!" He yelled.
The top of the cavern blew apart and the large ball lifted into the air, and then took off. Fatum checked the navigational system, it was marked Malta.
"Ok guys, engaging sleep," Fatum said as he hit a button on top of his pod.
A deep sleep fell over the members of the cult, as sleeping gas filled each pods hull.
