Who is truly the most wicked in these games of war? Will they be the ones to Rise or Fall?
Vampires
Within the silence of the hallowed halls of the Vampire Realm as everywhere held empty and with great silence. For all had been gathered to draw forth to the great throne of their people as darkness held to the dimly lit space as Nobles held in huddles within their seating with audible whispers as the said speaker vividly described what action and persistence needed to be taken against the humans. From behind the speaker , Queen Valarian held to her throne with a growing smirk held tinted to her lips as she knew all to well that these words were falling upon deaf ears.. Leaving little to no want to heed the words spoken as they truly didn't find the situation to be serious. Humans to all nobles had been seen as mere livestock that they could easily crush and yet.. That was far from the truth itself. With an irritated sigh , she rose from her stationed seat upon the throne and cast a look to her guards as they drew in behind the speaker and led them away as they gaffed at the approach of what was done. Valarian stepped around the unraveling scene as all the Nobles came to instantly silence in the space of the room whilst her look parted over the gathered throngs of individuals as she spoke calmly and unmoved."
My Subjects... It would seem that you all have begun to underestimate the abilities of our enemies. It is true , they are mere livestock but... They are livestock with the intent to defy those who are held superior over them. They have killed vast amounts of our kind.. Dabbled in Dark Arts forbidden to be held by their race and yet , all of you held here mocking the notion. If this careless behavior proceeds to be.. I can ensure you will lead to our fall. That is why , I will make matters simple in the orders I will proceed to give tonight. We are going to war with the humans.. We will remind them of how little they are to us.. That they are but cattle to be harvested from. In us , they will learn of true suffering and pain and will cease to undermine us. Our kind will be the triumphant." She said firmly as vast echoes of cheers and praise rang clear within the space of the room as her paled crimson eyes glowed in pure delight to the events that were to come and unfold.
In that moment , she turned upon the heel of her boot as her crimson cloak flurried behind her with the steps she took as her guards came to surround her as she spoke to the head of them with eased quietness in that moment."Send word to Lucien and Satia at their current locations and enlighten them to the current events and that I wish for both to begin their journey's to the front lines of defense. Give them the order that their Queen wishes for their killing to commence. Leave no stone unturned.. I sense both will meet great opposition in the days to come." Valarian finished as he bowed his head and dismissed himself from her presence as they proceeded their trail to her private quarters and above all.. To set in motion her pieces for war.
Humans:
"You question why we are doing this aren't you Lieutenant Colonel Takimuto?" General Aiso asked standing straight and attentive at his side as the both looked down from the observer deck window. Eyeing down something only known to them and those down below. Hearing the sounds of painful cries and screams of agony mixed with maniacal laughter. "No General." LTC Atsuya spoke as he somewhat forced his gaze down at what was being held below. His nerves on this matter not as steeled as the General. Mild conflict stored within him under the consistant militaristic discipline he had been gifted with over the years. "I am simply....adjusting to what needs to be done for us to ensure victory against our enemy. We have traveled and grown thus far due to the sacrifices of others and only through that will we survive these terrible calamities."
"Well said Colonel. You have done your job well and I nor any of the others in high command have any reason to doubt your resolve. Which is why you even stand where you do today. You know what we fight for and have the discipline to take, understand, and follow difficult orders. Keep it up and you can be a general in just a few more years. But...besides showing you this. I have some concerns to bring up to you. That new team of yours... Team Talon. It has a mix of concern. Specialist Midorikawa holds minor mental concerns but mainly inexperience and illogical aptitude. PFC Suzuma had severe depression and suicidal tendencies at one point in his life." Aiso went on before Atsuya turned his gaze to the General stopping him before he went on. "Yes Colonel?"
"I only wanted to clarify that both of them have showed great potential and combat prowess despite their records and Private Suzuma was brought in by myself and has since passed his psych evals with ease. Both are dedicated and read soldiers. Neither will be any concern." He said confidently before the General smirked and continued. "Yes...I see...and you would not allow just anyone in the Moon Demon Company now would you. I am merely voicing the mix of them into....well...two others I have actual concern for... PFC Hawthorne has OCD and Emotional difficulties....while I can appreciate that last trait in most cases it can be a cause for concern especially considering she shot through one of her own allies to secure a kill. She can be seen as either a wildcard or a deadly weapon depending on how you and her other superiors wield her. Which leads me to.."
"My brother." Atsuya spoke in frustration before recovering him composition. "Forgive me sir."
"No no. You are quite alright.. But yes. He has been an excellent soldier but I have noticed he holds some defiant tendencies. His mistakes have been overlooked as his missions have still resulted in success but when it comes to your orders or others he finds to be incorrect or not optimal he decides to take his own way. As an officer that can be dangerous...But I am very confident in you Takimuto. I would hate to see you act too ambitious with this mix of new soldiers....as well as one of our own. Their Squad Leader. Need I say more?" Aiso asked before giving a soft chuckle and guiding the Colonel out by the shoulder. "Get your men ready for their missions. I will need them ready in the months to come. Soon enough we will be ready to hit the vampires where it hurts....start causing some serious damage.
Leaving the building and stepping out a few steps from the door behind him Atsuya stopped and sighed not needing to look over his shoulder. "They toss you another treat for your obedience Sir? I know you can't tell me...nor would you. But there are times leaders need to stand up and not obey blindly." Kazuko said boldly as he approached the Colonel stopping directly in front of him. "Lieutenant..." Atsuya warned. "You are stepping over a few lines I would warn you not to cross. You need to behave more like the rank afforded to you. You have not earned not reached the ability to understand exactly the full burden's and officer and commander needs to undertake."
Kazuko only narrowed his gaze at his older brother's words and Atsuya looked down emotionless at him. "Kazuko.." He began before they began to fall into another heated argument which within a few moments led them into a training field not longer after. Weapons already drawn. By the end of which Kazuko's bow laid on the ground tossed away as both soldiers were catching their breath decently exhausted. Kazuko's body was sore but uninjured and his gaze bore darkly and with undying spirit across the field at his brother who held a cut across his cheek but otherwise Atsuya only chuckled. "Looks like you are improving....and look...I even got you to use your weapon like you are supposed to Kazuko.." He said to which Kazuko spat on the ground and slowly sheared his crimson black blade as the dark shadow flames around it sealed back into it's sheath along with it before he turned without a word to retrieve his bow. "I only use it on those that actually need me to take the effort.....or people that really piss me off. Sir.." He said taking his stance to leave the arena to head towards his team. Only looking back to say one last thing.
"There may be more things I need to learn...but you still have yet to decide for yourself if you are going to treat me as your brother...or as your subordinate. Until then Colonel. Focus on your team and command...and get off of my back."
Before another word could be blurted or spoken between the pair , the main entry door's began to chime loudly in alert to the entering of other members as the pair seemingly parted and straightened there attire to the point it would appear little to nothing had occurred. Itsurei came to enter the space of the room with the rest of Atsuya's team held behind her as she beamed a warm smile back to the group in a light hearted mood as her look instantly struck back to Kazuko with a knowing frown. She knew him well enough to know he never showed up for these things early and only did when he knew he'd be able to get a jab in against his brother.. If she were honest , both men drove her insane for vastly different reason and yet both held a contributing trait to them that she often found irritable dislike in. Their stubborn pride. With a low bore sigh , she gave Kazuko a knowing look of warning that they would speak later whilst the rest of Atsuya's gathered around him with broadened grins and talk to their fearless leader as Itsurei faced Kazuko with a firm look and her hands now held at her hips."You'll be the reason I go insane , do you understand that? I swear.. For once could you show up to these things early without having a constant fight with your brother? I'd like to have my second in command back in one piece if possible.. Unless you get knocked on the head and gain some more sense then try to refrain , Tiger.." She stated with calm play to him as both knew they'd have to wait for the remainder of their team to arrive as Commanding Officer , Labana called out to them with a bob of her blonde head."Keep held tight here , Kids.. Just need the rest of your team to arrive and then we can begin the briefing!" She beamed with an undoubtedly scary and yet peppy smile marked to her lips as Itsurei happily kept standing besides Kazuko in hopes they'd arrive soon. God knows , even as Team Leader that keeping Team Talon focused and on time was harder then anything she usually had to deal with.
