UNKNOWN MALE VOICE : Yeah, I hate myself for leaving her there, my big sister and the only one that cared to bring me up with love was most likely dead now and….. (a knock is heard)
UNKNOWN FEMALE VOICE : Hey Sirius, how long are you gonna stay in there sulking??.... It’s been a week since Eliza left, we need you
UNKNOWN MALE VOICE ( SIRIUS) : Leave me alone, Aria… I really don’t wanna talk to anyone right now
UNKNOWN FEMALE VOICE ( ARIA) : You don’t have to talk, Jonathan spotted a horde heading towards our location, Elisha is calling for a meeting
SIRIUS : I’ll be there shortly.. ( with reluctance in his voice )
ARIA : Good…. You don’t have to worry, Eliza is a strong woman, I’m sure she’s OK
SIRIUS : Yeah.. I guess you’re right
MAKESHIFT MEETING HALL
ELISHA : Hey Sirius, glad you could join us
ZINO : Was wondering how long you’re gonna be sulking for
SERAYAH : Zino… .everyone deals with grief in their own way, don’t attack Sirius
ZINO : Yeah I know, sorry man
SIRIUS : No you’re right, Eliza wouldn’t be happy to see me sulking like this so it’s better I get up and doing, so what’s the issue
JONATHAN : Well our cover’s been blown, we should have left sooner but now we might end up having to fight our way out of here again
DAVID : Was there any sign of a leader amongst their ranks??
JONATHAN : Most likely an earl but I could be wrong
ELISHA : Earl or not, we have to get ready to leave…. We need to head back to The Sanctuary and deliver the Ark
SIRIUS : What about Eliza??... We need to go back and check if she’s still alive
ELISHA : And I promise that we will but right now we need to finish the mission or else, Eliza’s sacrifice would be meaningless, so are you guys with me??
Elisha puts out his fist as the others joining fists with Sirius joining in last after which Elisha nods his head in acknowledgement.
Demons are seen flying into the city with undead humans following on foot, they come to a halt and stand waiting for the command of the one who seemed to be at the helm of the attack
DEMON GENERAL #1 : Come out of your holes, you human scum and face the ultimate punishment at the hands of Agares, a great duke of hell for daring to step on this land… ( in a loud voice)
A minute or two pass with Agares growing impatient, he motions at his generals who in turn motion to their lackeys to attack, they are about to launch a fireball the size of a wrecking ball at the building before they are stopped by the appearance of the Apostles standing atop the roof of the building adjacent the one that the demons were about to attack, they are dressed in a really cool attire with a long white jacket and black T-shirt with white trousers for the guys and short white jacket and black T-shirt with a white skirt and long socks on Leah, Zara and Sara while Aria and Serayah had white leather outfits on ( PS : Sirius wore a medium sized white jacket instead of a long one)
CALEB : So they came with zombies, huh….
LEAH : I’m guessing the undead are here to make up for the low demon numbers, that is most likely a low level ranking demon leader
SARA : So how are we doing this
SIRIUS : Wipe every single one of them off the face of the earth
ZINO : I agree
ZARA : We all have a lot of pent up anger and frustration, this is a good avenue to let loose on some of that dangerous emotion
ELISHA : Agreed, so it’s settled…. Apostles, use this opportunity to let off some steam, we can’t go back to HQ with all this anger and sadness boiling within us
SIRIUS : The leader is mine…. ( Moving once he had finished speaking at light speed towards Agares who stood behind the demon and undead horde)
ARIA : Such an impatient guy….
CALEB : How about we make it fun, the one to get the most kills wins
ZINO : I’m in
DAVID : Let’s get going
ELISHA : Victory is assured… ( in an otherworldly voice)
CALEB : A little surprise for everyone…. Low level creation : gift package [ weaponry ]
The other apostles charge into combat and the battle began in earnest; Caleb drops down in the midst of the undead and unleashes his guns on them, loaded with bullets bathed in divine energy the bullets cut down the undead with relative ease, he places the gun in the mouth of an undead and presses the trigger gunning down not only that undead but a couple others that were behind him, he knocks down another that tries to grab him and shoots it behind it’s head, he plants his feet in the ground and does a twirl, shooting as he did so with several more of the undead dropping like flies
CALEB : This is fun… ( he mutters to himself before shooting an undead that tried to grab him from behind)
Aria dives head first into a gathering of demons with killer intent, demons attempt to surround and devour her but soon regret their decision as Aria jerks her head up and slams her palms together
ARIA : Heavenly art : Field of stakes
Hundreds of wooden stakes shoot out from the ground and impale every single demon around her, causing other demons to look on in anger as their comrades were ripped to shreds due to the stakes spreading out within them and ripping them to shreds
DEMON #1 : How dare you…
DEMON #2 : I’ll kill you….
More demons rush towards Aria but she doesn’t seem moved as she places her hands on the earth and pulls out a bow after which she causes several small stakes to rise up around her
ARIA : Anyone who dares enter this field will die a most horrific death at my hands… ( with a ferocity that sent chills down the demons surging towards her)…… Heavenly art : lucky shot
Aria begins to let out several arrows fly without aiming with the demons thinking that she was scared and so too frightened to aim properly, but that logic soon proves wrong as the arrows she fired begin to hit them in the strangest way possible almost like as though they were all just lucky enough to hit unintended but deserving targets with the demons getting confused as to how she was manipulating the direction of the arrows without actually aiming
Zino was not one to enter into combat himself so preferred to stay atop the roof the other apostles had just left and watch the battle from a distance
ZINO : I wonder….. Sixth sealing thunder : seal of control : release – six demon unnamed arise
A portal with a purple hue appears in front of Zino and six dark figures fly out of the portal and land on the ground; one looked like a bull but stood on two legs, another had three faces and nine hands, another had the head of a man with the body of a lion, another a goat head and legs with the upper torso of a man, another a snake with horns and lastly, one was pure bones with wings. These creatures stood before Zino and knelt down before him
DEMON SERVANT #1 : Command us master, we shall do your bidding
ZINO : Destroy your kind… ( with a voice that was filled with hate)
The creatures nod their head and immediately rush into battle cutting down all demons that stood in their way, Zino stares down the carnage his minions are causing and wonders how long the war would last and if they would even be able to win it.
SERAYAH : Fighting you guys can get really annoying…. ( she says as she took down a couple of adversaries with a swipe of her blade)Serayah rushes forward cutting left and right with her blade with little effort being wasted downing the demons that stood in her path, she stood still when she realized she was surrounded on all sidesDEMON #5 : What are you going to do now, scumDEMON #6 : Die like the scum you are… ( several of the demons around her create sharpened poles made out of hell fire and proceed to throw it at her)SERAYAH : Tch, not on your life….. Heavenly art : Embodiment of the seraph – first formBright flames come down from the heavens and engulf Serayah in a bright blaze that disintegrated all the poles hurled at her and caused the demons surrounding her to go back a bit, a minute passes by with the demons getting curious to what had happened but it’s not long before the fla
The battle is spread across the island as the apostles use Agares and his forces to let off pent off steam, the intensity of their attacks affected the landscape with numerous explosions erupting around the island from the places which the apostles fought. Agares stood afar watching the battle unfold with the apostles destroying his forces with little or no difficulty at allAGARES : Tch… these humans are quite the challenge to overcome, I wonder why I was chosen to take out such a troublesome bunchSIRIUS : Agares!!!!... ( He yells as he charges towards Agares with immense force, ripping apart everything in his path)Before Agares can react, Sirius lands a blow that launches the earl a few hundred meters away, causing destruction to the earth as he flew past and causing a massive explosion at the point of impact where Agares had stopped with the earl coughing at the force of the blow, Agares manages to get up to his fe
Sirius ceases his attack and rushes to where Agares had landed, upon reaching there he saw no-one, as he is about to leave he senses the presence of another and immediately takes a leap back and turns in the direction of the energy he had felt with Agares emerging from a portal with annoyance on his faceSIRIUS : I’ve never known an archdemon to fight in such a cowardly fashion, masking your presence with that portal and attempting a sneak attack is quite cowardly and I can only but feel bad for Hell for having you amongst it’s upper echelons of authorityAGARES : Silence!!!Agares is beyond angered at Sirius comment and decides to make him pay for it, he creates a blade of pure hell flame and sped towards Sirius attempting to finish it in one strike, unfortunately his plan fell through as Sirius dodged his slash with relative easeSIRIUS : Is that the fastest you can go??... Cause if it is, then I am r
ELISHA : I know you all are still sad over the fact that Eliza is not here with us but right now we have something really important to talk aboutARIA : What’s that ??...( she asks with others showing little interest)ELISHA : Who got the highest number of kills of course, I think I wonThere was silence for a while as the other apostles don’t respond immediately but keep to the moody atmosphere for a few seconds before the ice is brokenCALEB : Don’t kid yourself bro, I’m clearly the one who wonDAVID : Whoa, hold it right there… did you guys see me in action, I was taking down those demons like it was nothingZINO : If I remember properly you were struggling until I arrived to give you moral support ( Zino says with a few muffled chuckles coming from the group)… anyways I’m clearly the winner since I had five minions doing the killing for meSERAYAH : I don’t think it counts a
WAR ANGEL #4 : It’s BeelzebubARCHANGEL #5 : So these guys are really serious with storming heaven’s gate with everything they’ve gotARCHANGEL #6 : Urghh….Beelzebub was a tall figure with a slightly humane look save for say his head which carried two distinct horns, his hands which looked more like the hands of a monster with its scaly skin and long fingers with his legs sharing similar characteristics with his hands, his wings spanned a whooping fifty six by thirty two inches with it looking like those of a bat.BEELZEBUB : I’m honored that you all still remember me despite my changed appearanceARCHANGEL #5 : Why wouldn’t we remember, you defiant…. ( the archangel is not allowed to finish his sentence when a blade slices through his neck beheading him instantly with other angels staring in horror)BEELZEBUB : you will show me respect and not cut me off when I speak, I am not here to banter wo
Beelzebub shakes his head and widens his wings opening a portal large enough to swallow the earth and out of it several black spikes begin to fire out of it at immense speeds with Raphael hitting them away with his blade and he jetted towards Beelzebub to engage in close combat. The force, speed and intensity of Beelzebub’s rain of spikes was getting stronger the closer Raphael get but this did not deter Raphael as he then stopped in his tracks and generated an energy wave from his being that repelled all the spikes From Beelzebub and blinded him momentarily, Before Beelzebub has a chance to regain himself Raphael gives him a huge blow on his shoulder with his blade, only narrowly missing the chance to slice Beelzebub in two due to the latter’s quick reflexes which ended up saving himBEELZEBUB : We are going to keep on coming brother, we will gain access to the throne of grace soon enoughRAPHAEL : I don’t care how many because as many of you that
ELIZA : what??... End the war, how does my power help to do that?? And why exactly am I the one that gets to do that, I mean can’t the Father just snap his fingers and everything is back to normal??GABRIEL : It’s not so simple, Eliza, the Father can’t interfere in such a direct manner before the appointed time, it would go against his word and as it is known, his word is absoluteELIZA : What the hell are you talking about??... So many people have died and he won’t do anything all because his word are more important that the lives of his creation?? Is that what you are saying??GABRIEL : Be careful of the assumptions you make, else you be struck dead for blaspheming against the FatherELIZA : Threatening me like that won’t change what I feel or what I’ve seen, people died in the most painful and gruesome way possible, Gabriel…. Six billion people are dead and instead of you to give an answer for why the Father didn’t stop this a long
LOCATION : THE SIXTH LEVEL OF HELLTIME : IRRELEVANTDATE : IRRELEVANT[ FACTS : Hell is an entire universe comparable in size to Heaven. It is filled with fire and brimstone and coursing with everything evil, wrong and negative in all of existence, created to keep Lucifer and his minions captive until the appointed time when they would be brought before the throne of grace and judged, humans that end up resident there are unfortunate souls that succumbed to the devil’s whims and got dragged in with him thus hell was never created for humans and it is only due to heeding the words of demons do human souls end up there suffering eternal torment. Hell is divided into six levels with the first to the fourth level housing low level demons up to the rank of low archdemons, the fifth level is home to the Named while the sixth is the dwelling place of the demon princes as well as the dark god Lucifer, intensity of flames in hell increase as one goes deep
DIANA : Which is why she is acting so aggressive towards us. That I can understand ( Diana says with her eyes fixated on the general)ARTHUR : I never would have thought that this was the reason for her attitude. She must be really scarredALEXANDER : I’m sorry for your loss, General. I know it must be rough having to deal with the fact that your own daughter secretly resents you and the fact that you support the church even after everything that has happened. ( He asserts in a calm voice)GENERAL MULLIGAN : Don’t get me wrong, Alex. I still question the Father every night asking why he would let Miranda die in such a gruesome manner but in the end I guess her beliefs rubbed off on me ( He remarks as he then took his seat)ALEXANDER : I can understand. May I ask a favorGENERAL MULLIGAN : Yes anything. What is it ( He replies as he regained his composure)ALEXANDER : I would like to have a chance to prove to Ele
GENERAL MULLIGAN : Ahem. As I was saying. I can understand just how fatigued you might feel. With the amount of responsibility on your shoulders, it’s a wonder you haven’t broken down. For so long this war as been going on. So many have fallen trying to protect what remains of humanity. That responsibility alone is enough to break a man. So I say thank you for all you have sacrificed to protect humanity. Because of men like you, humanity can rest easy hoping that one day we will be free.ALEXANDER : That us a dream I would like to see fulfilled as well and I know that with the blessings of the Father, that dream will soon become a reality.ELENA : Oh please. Do not lump in humanity’s survival with that made up being you choose to follow ( Elena remarks in a condescending tone )ALEXANDER : Sorry what do you mean by that??ELENA : I said that you should not lump in humanity’s survival on a being that doesn’t even exist.ARTHUR : Hmm, ar
ALEXANDER : A human drawing powers from hell who calls himself the Shadow KingALL OF HAVEN’S REPRESENTATIVES : The shadow king?? ( Speaking out in unison )ALEXANDER : Yes. We came to this realization after we had defeated the undead army. We were triumphant in the first battle but then he introduced himself via a cluster of dark clouds which helped to show that he has mastered the dark powers quite well. After an exchange of words, he summoned an army of shadows to test our mettle in battle. It took me a while to realize it but our opponent is quite the strategic kind. No matter whom the opponent is, he would rather try to gauge his opponent first before he does anything else. A tactic which he has already employed twice.COMMANDER KELLER : This might prove to be quite troublesome if you are right and we truly are up against a strategic mind. ( She remarks with a worried look on her face)SAMSON : Truth be told, we had no idea that was what he w
GENERAL MULLIGAN : I call this meeting of Haven’s leaders and the representatives of the Holy knights to begin. Since you all so formally introduced yourself. It would not be good if we did not do the same to get ourselves acquainted, Don’t you agree commander ( He remarks with Alex obliging)ALEXANDER : I see no reasons why I should object so please go aheadGENERAL MULLIGAN : Alright then. I am General H. Mulligan. Commander in chief other Armed Forces and also leader of Haven. Nice to make your acquaintance.COMMANDER STANTON : I am Commander R. Stanton. High commander of the Armed Forces and second in command to the general in the leadership of this great nation. ( He remarks with a salute before casually taking his seat again)COMMANDER E. KELLER : I am Commander E. Keller. Second in command of the Armed Forces and assistant to the general.DR. ALLAN : Dr. A. Allan. Head of medical services in HavenM
Alexander and the thirteen warriors stood at the gates with several prying eyes setting sights on them as murmurs flew round, some where in awe of the presence of the knights, while others questioned the reason the knights had gathered in the capital on such short notice fearing for the worse as they spoke. Sounds of vehicles are heard coming from a distance after which a number of vehicles come to a halt close to where Alexander and his men were waiting. A couple of military men come out of the vehicles after which General Mulligan and a suited woman come out from the same vehicle. Alexander sets his eyes on the lady with Mulligan and is taken aback by her beauty; She wore a black suit jacket on top of a purple blouse with a black corporate skirt and black heels to match, her hair shone a dark brown color and was tired in a horse tail style. Her eyes were covered as she wore shades and a beautiful emerald necklace hung around her neck.Alex has his eyes on the lady for

DRAKE / SHADOW KING : I can’t believe it ( He remarks with a mixed expression of shock and interest on his face )… he destroyed my shadows in one hit, quite impressiveSHIVA : I had warned you that your gamble would not tiled the results you intended, master ( She says matter of factly )DRAKE / SHADOW KING : Oh please be quiet Shiva, do not talk in such a foolish manner. Of course my plan yielded results ( He remarks with a smirk as he rose from his seat)SHIVA : What do you mean?? ( She asks a bit upset with how Drake had addressed her)DRAKE / SHADOW KING : Listen carefully; yes I do admit that my plan to see the thirteen in action so as to be able to gauge their abilities was not a complete success but there is no way you can call it a failure as we were able to get a sneak peek at nine artilleries which is just as rewarding, don’t you think??

MEANWHILE BACK ON THE BATTLEFIELDAlexander is seated atop his horse, stationed at the middle of the battle with the ground on which he stood raised a bit higher than the surrounding. Alex stares intently at the battle before him as he rummages through his thoughts, he doesn’t draw his sword neither does he make a move as he shifted his gaze towards the dark horizon. He tightens his grip on his straddle before finally setting himself at easeALEXANDER : Enough!!!! ( He yells out at the top of his lungs halting the attacks of the knights as his voice echoed across the battlefield )…. Retreat!! ( He orders with the Holy knights staring at him wide eyed at his order)HOLY KNIGHT #7 : Did the commander just tell us to retreat or am I hearing wrongly?? ( She asks in surprise)HOLY KNIGHT #9 : You aren’t the only one who heard that, what the hell is the commander thinking?? ( He questions as he held onto his weapons)ALEXANDER : Fall b
Arthur runs through a cluster of shadows, wielding Excalibur in hand as it glowed with a golden hue. The creatures were repelled by the light and could not take a hold of his as any attempt ended with a shaped creature burned to a crisp. Arthur does not care for the small fries as he runs towards something much bigger; a shadow monster the size of a sky scraper was moving onto short and he knew that it would pose a serious threat to the knights if it got into the battlefield. The monster notices Arthur’s dash and sends more shadows his way but Arthur slices through it with one strike of his blade as he leaps into the air and sends an arc of energy straight at the creature, his attack does so much as to cause the creature pain as it screeched in a loud voice upon impact but it didn’t slow it’s movement as it soon recovered from the blow and reached out for Arthur who was still in mid airARTHUR : Shit!! ( Arthur exclaims as he attempts to
