Ascent to Throne- prelude/summary

Summery- Taking place after the end of the Anime. Abel is in Seth's palace to accept a life altering offer. To become the Prince of the New Human Empire. Will Abel be able to go through with it? Or will he let his past connections to Kain and the first inter-racial war between the Methuselah, Terrains, and the Crusniks get in the way? Not to mention how will he explain it to his boss Cardinal Caterena? Read on and find out if Abel can actually Ascend to the Throne.

PS. Prelude is a slight spoiler to the end of the series. Reviews are very nice, try to leave some for me, 'cause I know I make mistakes and I need help fixing them. I actually prefer using some of the terms from the Japanese version of the Anime, so don't be to shocked when you see Kain, Rosenkreuz Orden (Rose and Thorn Order in English if I recall correctly), or something. Arigatou- Hittocere


Prelude-Hopefully Not the Same

The fight with Kain had not left him in a particularly good mood. He was sore, irritable, and he had infused too much with the Nanomachines. Seth had gotten to him just in time. People had started to investigate what happened at the little church when she flew him away in one of her airships. He was pronounced dead to the world, killed in the battle against the Rosenkreuz Orden. Dietrich Von Logingrin was found dead across the room from the fallen Priest. A small smile finally appeared on his lips.

"At least we got one of them. Kain will be next, right Seth?" he asked still recovering from going 100 Crusnik. The little girl nodded, she was smiling too.

"I hated Dietrich, it almost makes me want to thank Kain," she laughed holding her older brothers hand as he lie on the huge bed. He had slowly re-grown his legs after Kain had blown them off with his lance. He nodded, he was kind of happy about it too. Mainly because of the Sexual Harassment that Dietrich had done against Esther.

"Sadly, I kind of do too. Although most of that stuff was probably Kain's idea first not Dietrich's. Kain… I wonder what freakish misery he's going through now," he thought aloud. Seth looked at him surprised since he wasn't totally enraged by the mention of Kain's name anymore.

"Abel… We both know that answer. He's not. The Kain we knew is dead, his body is just an empty shell manipulated by the nanomachines. He's probably watching us along side Lilith now, don't you think?" Seth asked. Abel looked away from her to the sky outside the windows of the palace.

"Perhaps… just perhaps Seth," he answered softly. The two them said silent prayers and Seth left to check her Empire. Abel sat there for a while his head pounding, all these thoughts were giving him a headache. He fell asleep quietly, listening to light rain beat against the window with its soft presence. Seth's double looked on his piece with a slight bit of hope. It seemed like he would be back to his full self in no time, even faster than a Methuselah. She bowed slightly, and left for her duties. It would be a long week.


This was one of my distractions from Rise of the Nightlords. Oh and just to put this out it the open, I don't really consider Kain evil, at least not the real Kain as I show in the other Fic. However Kain is manipulated by his own nanomachines, and his empty shell makes a good villian. So plot wise and such, what do you think?
