Pillow Queen of Doom ~ Valen's BooBear <3
Long ago, a lethal virus spread across the world, wiping out most of humanity and setting the world in ruins; only children under the age of thirteen would be able to survive, they said. A new age was born. Vampires, demons and angels were no longer only story characters. With humanity almost going extinct vampires took this chance to enslave the human race, feeding off of them with the excuse of providing them protection from the monsters that roamed around the now ruined world. But not everyone was captured. A group of humans called in the help of demons and angels to fight back and take the world back as their own. Now , the battle between the un-dead and living will commence and in the end only the strongest will survive.. And yet..
Who is truly the most wicked in these games of war? Will they be the ones to Rise or Fall?
Sanguinem - Vampire Audience Chambers:
Within the silence of the hallowed halls of Sanguinem 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 Valenia held to her throne with a growing smirk held tinted to her lips as she knew all too 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. Valenia 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 are mocking the notion Hyakuya Sect managed to leak such information before I placed their untimely demise upon them.” She paused as her words bit like a viper to them as Balthor held to the ledge with a definite grin intact to her illustrious ways. “ If this careless behavior proceeds to be.. I can ensure you will lead to our downfall. That is why I will make matters simple in the orders I will proceed to give this night. 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 and for us. In us , they will learn of true suffering and pain and will cease to undermine us. Our kind will be triumphant. We will be the pure race to walk this realm!" 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 as her pieces began to fall into place.
Piece by Piece...
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 of her tone." Send forth word to Lucien and Ivan at their current locations. Enlighten them to the current events and that I wish for them and their pets to begin their journey to the front lines of defense in Shinjuku. Give them the order that their Queen wishes for their killing to commence. Leave no stone un-turned.. I sense they may finally meet the opposition they longed for in their boredom in the days to come." Valenia finished as Sitor 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.
JIDA Shibuya Headquarters:
"You question why we are doing this aren't you, Lieutenant Colonel Takimuto?" Lieutenant General Misuaba Hiragi 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 consistent 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 as long as you continue to play your pieces correctly. But...besides showing you this. I have some concerns to bring up to you. These new teams of yours... Team Talon and Lycan. It has a mix of concern. Private Nightlocke holds minor mental concerns however her lust for the death of the enemy is certainly encouraged. Private Hatonaka... Holds an ailment that would make him rather...Unneeded." Misuaba said meeting the Colonel’s gaze before nodding with a glimmer of satisfaction. “I will trust your judgement, next..” General Misuaba went on before Atsuya turned his gaze to the General stopping him before he went on. "Yes Colonel?"
"I only wanted to clarify that all of them have showed great potential and combat prowess despite their records. Each are dedicated and ready soldiers. None of them will be any concern. Team Lycan was created and hand selected personally by that of my second in command, Labana with brief input from myself. You are more aware that those within that unit have trained in harsher conditions compared to Talon due to the difference between the units." He said confidently before the General smirked and continued. "Yes... I see...You would not allow just anyone entry into the Moon Demon Company. Now, would you. I hope for your sake they live up to your expectations. Both teams were created by those considered the finest in our units. However this now leads me to.."
"My brother." Atsuya spoke in frustration before recovering him composition. "Forgive me sir."
"No, no. You’re 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?" Misuaba 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'll be ready to hit the vampires where it hurts....start causing some serious damage.” Misuaba halted in his tracks as he paused and rolled his head back on his shoulders. The scarred right side of his face held apparent under the lighting as his features ultimately darkened.” Another thing I forgot to pass along to you. Do bare in mind that to the unit team of Lycan that one of my own blood will be amongst them. If anything was to happen to Rinka Hiragi I can assure you that my father would strike down upon you and Viper. After all.. He would hate to see his bloodline be killed off further..” He hinted at with a slight smirk at the recollection of the known Hiragi’s whose lives had come to an end. At that, he’d merely give a dismissive hand as Atsuya would give a small bow of his head in acknowledgement as Misuaba departed into the halls.
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 sheathed his crimson black blade as the dark shadow flames around it sealed back into its 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 doors 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. The new additions to the two new teams would come to enter the area as they now all stood in the central meeting building within the sector provided to the Moon Demon Company. To the left held the belongings of Team Lycan while the Right held the belongings of Team Talon waiting for their members to show up. On the Talon side stood Lieutenant Kazuko who held himself in a strong but uninviting stance with his cold eyes still hardened from moments ago as well as the slight ruffling of his uniform hinting even more to what occurred. Regardless he stood with his bow over his shoulder and his blade at his side where his hand rested upon it. To where Lycan would stand, Labana came to enter the space as she stole a quick grin to that of Kazuko as she gave a playful salute in turn to him.” Guess we will see whose teams are tougher than the other huh?” She called out to him as her look would be directed to the doors opening at opposite entry points as she could witness Kazuko entering. She couldn’t help but smile at the sight of the kid all grown up and preparing to lead his own unit. Where had time gone.. Labana thought within her own mind as she gave him a tiny wave from her position. In a matter of moments from the left side of the base building Team Lycan would come to enter. A silver haired blonde led the unit in as her soft locks spilled behind her with each step she took as her black cloak swished behind her. Her weapons held nowhere in sight upon her form as the rest of her team filed in behind her. Most of the team held to the older age range as their looks passed with hidden thought and judgement to Team Talon as they stopped to their side of the room. Upon stopping, they quickly saluted to Labana and Atsuya as Labana grinned to her unit.
When those of his squad, team Talon, began to show up he would look to each of them as if sizing them on the spot. “This is the part where I give some professional and cheery introduction and welcome ceremony. So I’ll be quick with it all. My name is Lieutenant Kazuko Takimuto, call me whatever you wish. You have been placed in this company and under my command for a number of reasons but when we get down to it you simply need to understand one thing. You are in a far different league than wherever you stood before picking up your demonic weapon and with that we take the frontlines of this war. Look to each other and understand you need to rely on each other as much as your own weapon. Get careless or hot headed and risk your own damn lives, that is all on you. For your sake you better hope the vampires finish the job before I do. All you need to know for now is this is your new home, enjoy it while you can. We will train nearly every morning and evening that we are not out in the field. If you have any questions now is the time otherwise go get your things settled.” he said with a wave of dismissal. “O… and the other group over there.” Kazuko pointed over his shoulder. “Is our sister team and in some ways, your competition Team Lycan.”
Rinka herself felt a silver brow arch to the motioning gaze of Kazuko with brief quipped interest. Sayada bobbed up behind her as she laid her lips close to Rinka’s ear to whisper.” If my assumptions are correct then that is Lieutenant Colonel’s younger brother. Not exactly the kind of team I was expecting ourselves to be paired with..” She said as Rinka pursed her lips together slightly as she studied the backside of Kazuko. She had to bite back a slight smirk at his words of stating them to be their competition as they held more experience over them as a unit. Rinka could feel her own team behind her rustle at the words as she tilted her hat back to reveal the pure blue of her gaze.” We will see if they prove to be the competition to us than.. Lycan has yet to encounter one in the newer Moon Company Ranks yet… I do like to be surprised.” She said plainly enough that her words could be heard by that of Kazuko as she turned her attention upon her team as she nodded her head at their luggage and items.” I would suggest you all go place your items to our designated living quarters and return for the briefing. Unless you all have questions..” She let the words linger in a fall to them as she turned to gaze upon her unit as Sayada twisted her arms behind her back with a slight giggle of amusement.” Not I, Sergeant..!” She sputtered out quick as she shot playful looks back to her mostly serious teammates as she gave a nudge to the sister’s arms whilst Rinka sighed and looked sympathetically to her team from Sayada’s antics as she awaited their response. All the while, Labana stepped forward to receive documents as a soldier entered the space to present them with a bow of his head. Her look would peer over the documents and reports as she read over them and inhaled sharply. A form of sadness painted her orbs as she cast a look between Atsuya and Kazuko with a sense of dread for what she would have to brief on with her end of things as she awaited in the area for the teams to be readied.
