The Flashback Begins
The Phoenix Kingdom Throne Room - Right after Noboru was sealed
The throne room was bathed in the glow of a deep crimson its massive golden pillars stretching infinitely into the sky. Red and black banners adorned with the logo of the Chikara Clan in the middle the symbol of the icon of the kingdom a blazing phoenix surrounded The Chikara Clan logo—hung from the high ceilings, exuding an aura of overwhelming supremacy.
At the center of the grand hall, sitting upon thrones carved from the Gold and Dimensium, were King Hiroshi Chikara and Queen Amaya Chikara. Their very presence commanded respect and before them, standing tall in full battle attire, were their only two remaining children that were not disowned or considered failure and disgraces.
The first was their beautiful daughter
Princess Meiyo Chikara the pride of the clan, One of the 2 candiate said to be destined to rule all of existence, the destined heir of the clan, the one chosen to lead their bloodline to absolute dominion of everyone and everything. Her Black hair, flowed down. She carried herself with the confidence of an empress as her mother taught her too, her piercing red eyes narrowing slightly as she listened to her parents. She was really beautiful just like her mother she had broken many hearts
Beside her stood her twin brother, Prince Kouki Chikara. Unlike Meiyo, his arrogance was showing. He was open like a book to the point anyone can read him and see all he had was unrestrained, pure, absolute pride and arrogance. His crimsons eyes almost identical to hers, burned with self-righteous fury. He wore the armour that all those who are higher rank in Phoenix Kingdom wore Black armour with golden outlines,
Both of them had returned from Celestial Vanguard Academy moments ago after the attack by a demon general from the Demon empire and went to their mother and father to rant abou the experience.
"Mother, Father that disgrace showed us up." Kouki said as Meiyo nodded.
"Oh and how did that disowned trash. Show up my precious children who will rule above all." Amaya asked as Huroshi looked curiously.
"First he turned up on a dragon and then he...." Kouki was cut off King Hiroshi's voice filled the room it was smooth, but filled with unrelenting conviction of arrogance and pride. "You must understand, my children he can do all these grnad gesture he can make himself to be a king but he nothing in face of you. Both of you your destiny eclipses his it is written in the very fabric of existence from the day you were born Kaito Danzo my sensei saw the future of one off you. You are not simply rulers. You are conquerors. The ones born to to rule above all to govern both creation and nonexistence itself. That is why you two are my children adn that disgrace is nothing"
Queen Amaya leaned forward, her lips curling into a cruel smile. "Remember my children, My beautiful children who will fufill my i mean our desire to rule above all unlike that disgrace... That failure. You are my children. That thing that wears the skin of a Chikara. Of my oldest sons. The 12th dimensional beasts that attacked us and wears your dead older brothers skin is nothing more than an abomination."
Amaya smirked as a her lies made Kouki angry. She had long figured out a way to draw out his power through anger. Use his jealously for her disgrace disowned trash. Remind him that disowned trash killed his brother which wasn't true but the story they put out to keep the destined one safe but it also helps to draw out Kouki power cause he trained to be loyal to family and to protective off them so telling him that thing walking is nothing but the monster wearing his brothers skin mocking the clan and his dead brother which was not true at all can draw out the power of Kouki while also directing his hatred and negative emotion at the scapegoat.

After all as much as they were her children first and foremost she saw them as tools and legacy.
Kouki's hands clenched into fists, his jaw tightening at the mere mention of his disgraced older brother.
"Noboru," he spat, as if the name itself was poison. "The traitor. The liar. The monster who wears a Chikara's skin. The one who stole the glory meant for us."
Meiyo who was usually always the more composed of the two, merely scoffed. "He's beneath us. A mongrel born with power he doesn't deserve. He should have been erased long ago. That power should belong to us the destined ones."
King Hiroshi chuckled darkly. "Indeed. You must understand, my children—he is not one of us. He is nothing more than the soul of the 12th Dimension Lava Wolf and the Sky Hawk merged and stolen a form that resembles our bloodline. Stole you dead older brothers body using its power to get revenge on us. It is nothing but a parasite wearing human skin the skin of our family."
Kouki's face twisted into disgust and anger. "And yet, despite being nothing more than a glorified beast, he dares to act like he's superior to me. To us."
Queen Amaya's gaze softened out of pretence to that of one that a mother can only hold for her true children. She reached out, gently brushing a hand against Kouki's cheek, her touch deceptive and warm. "Let that anger fuel you, my baby. Let it remind you of your purpose. To rule above all, To dominate all for the family. To reunite the other Chikara's of the other kingdoms and show them way of Phoenix is right that they are wrong and we are right and to kill that beast that challenge us that dared to act out of line out of what we allowed to it be,"
Kouki's eyes burned with pure hatred.
"I will surpass him," he growled. "Bit not just that mother i do not want it alive wearing our brothers skin I will make sure it is erased. I will make sure it's very existence is undone from history."
Meiyo, standing beside him, crossed her arms. Unlike Kouki, she was not as easily blinded by emotion—but her hatred for Noboru was no less intense.
"You should have seen him," she muttered, her tone laced with venom. "At Celestial Vanguard Academy. The way he acted... The way he humiliated us."
Hiroshi raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Tell me more."
Kouki's body tensed, the memory igniting a fresh wave of fury.
"He arrived on a dragon. A dragon as if he were some kind of legendary hero. The entire academy was watching. The moment he appeared, he stole the attention that was meant for me... I mean us."
Meiyo scoffed. "He paraded himself like he was above us, like he was the rightful heir to the Phoenix Kingdom. When he only created a fake kingdom full of those wretched Inhumans and used Dimensium to make other kingdom and the other 2 great kingdoms accept. But what got me was the way the others looked at him... As if he was something greater. As if we were nothing in comparison. Even our friend who hate him looked at him like that"
Kouki's rage deepened. "He defeated every opponent without even trying. It was insulting. I was supposed to be the strongest. I am supposed to be the best. I am supposed to be the greatest. It is not fair"
Amaya's eyes darkened. "And yet, that thing walked into the academy and made fools of you?"
Amaya walked up to Kouki and Meiyo and slapped them.
"How dare both of you my children my perfect children lose to it." Amaya yelled her Omni Energy flaring but Hiroshi put his hand on her using his own Omni Energy to restrain her.
"Enough Amaya clearly the beast is using its beastly magic to make out glorious marvellous children to look good. Look he probably place some magic on them to make you angry towards them so he can turn us against each other." Hiroshi said defusing the sitution with lies not wanting to lose his destined children.
Kouki's fists trembled after the slap but stopped as he heard Hiroshi explanation why his loving mother lapped him it was the beast it was Noboru he tried to turn him against his family by making mother a bad guy..
Hiroshi sighed mentally seeing his son who he can read like book act accordingly
"I would have beaten him if he didn't have that unfair advantage. He has power he never earned! He doesn't deserve it! I am the rightful heir!" Kouki stated.
Hiroshi leaned back into his throne, his expression unreadable. "Yes you and do you know why, my children? Why it doesn't matter what he does?"
Meiyo and Kouki glanced at him, waiting.
"Because destiny is already on your side. He is nothing. You are everything. You will bring about the end of this pathetic era. You will erase the disgrace and rule over all existence. All will kneel before me... i mean us,"
Queen Amaya smiled. "The prophecy is clear. You and your sister will stand above all as rulers. Noboru is merely a distraction, a piece of filth to be discarded in the grand scheme of things."
Kouki's anger settled slightly—only because his mother's words soothed his ego.
Meiyo, despite her arrogance, felt a twinge of caution. "Prophecy or not, we need to be careful. He is still powerful. He still exists. We must remove him properly."
Hiroshi smirked he knew his daughter she was always suspicious and cautious but with a little ego stroking she can be brought to act to how he wants. "Oh, my daughter... you are always so wise. And you are right. Noboru must be erased the right way.
But you must also understand... it is not him you should worry about."
Both Meiyo and Kouki frowned.
"Then who?" Kouki asked.
"It is not a who but..."
And then—
A shockwave.
The entire throne room shook violently.
A golden teleportation circle erupted in the middle of the grand hall.
A figure stumbled forward—bloodied, broken, barely breathing.
Shin Chikara.
The Founder of the Phoenix Kingdom.
The greatest warrior of their bloodline.
And he looked like he had barely escaped hell itself.
Gasps filled the room.
Meiyo's eyes widened slightly. "Great Great Grandfather...?"
Shin's breath was ragged. His once mighty form, draped in battle-worn armor, was drenched in blood— his own and his enemies'.
The guards moved to assist him, but he raised a trembling hand.
A Medic got close but he waved them off
"No," he rasped. "There's no time for that."
Hiroshi, for the first time, looked mildly concerned. "Shin-Sama my great lord... what happened? Who did this to you?"
Shin's golden eyes burned with urgency as he lifted his head, staring directly at the king.
His voice echoed through the throne room.
"Gather the noble clans. Gather the warriors. Summon the full might of the Chikara bloodline."
He coughed, golden blood splattering onto the marble floor.
And then—he spoke the words that changed history.
"We are at war."
A heavy silence fell over the throne room.
The air felt colder.
Kouki's eyes widened. Meiyo's lips pressed into a firm line.
