"Honestly what is with this mission. It's pointless!" Percy heard one of the knights call out from his far right. One that always complained when they were on missions. "I hate diplomacy it never works! They always want more than they should be given. They're our bitch! We're not theirs!" The man was rather burly and it was clear as day he chose brawn over brain.

"Do you not hear yourself at the moment?" A girl with hair as dark as night yelled at the brawn man. "Without diplomacy we would never reach peace! I for one am sick of fighting all these stupid battles! Half of this war was created because you didn't know how to shut up! Honestly how you became a general is beyond me!" She stomped her foot loudly on the ground and trudged off, not wanting to have any more of it.

That's right, they were all generals within the army. It was of a rare occurrence that they all actually got together and carried out a mission for Chaos. This one was of upmost importance as well. The treaty was supposed to be signed today on Orders planet and it was one to mark the end of the war. A war that had been going on for hundreds of years. Percy had slayed so many people at this point that he truly wondered if he was considered a person anymore.

A light nudge kicked him from his thoughts and next to him stood the leader of the generals. "Hey, you alright?" He asked Percy, sitting down next to him.

Percy smiled at his friend and the only man that had been within the army for as long as he, "Archal. How many times have I told you that you should be resting. You're presenting yourself to Order after all.

The leader of the Generals and that of Chaos's army let out a short laugh. "Sorry, nerves were getting to me. It is perhaps one of the most important missions we have done after all." Percy agreed with his leader's thoughts. A day on the battlefield was nothing more than a walk in the park for the generals. It was the reason that Order was calling off the war in the first place. That or he was sick of the war in the first place. There could only be so much fighting after all. "I'm surprised she asked you to come along." Archal commented after a moment.

Percy's eyebrows rose a bit, "She is my queen and I will do as she says no matter the consequences." Percy looked at his fellow generals who were all keenly listening on his and Archal's conversation. He then admitted a moment later, "She wanted me to stay but I told her my place was by my fellow comrades."

"It must be lucky, getting a babe like the creator of the universe to fall in love with you." Archal nudged him once more in a teasing tone. "You can officially become the strongest man in the universe if you accepted her offer."

Percy shook his head, a light smile on his face as he aimlessly twisted his knife around his hands. The thought had been on his mind for quite some time. "I have no interest having more power Archal. With Power comes responsibilities. And I fear..." Percy's voice drowned out, it had been his fear all this time to not be strong enough to protect the ones he loved. He knew that with Chaos's power came greater risks and more people he would have to protect.

Archal shook his head. "Only you would reject more power if it was shoved right down your throat. Always thinking things through Perce. For a while I thought you didn't love Chaos, always dismissing her advances."

Percy rolled his eyes, Archal was always one to get in on his love life, he was like a brother to Percy and as the two of them had been fighting Order for the longest time out of anyone in the army, they had come to form a bond with one another.

"Gotta say. I'm jealous of you Perce." A man appeared in front of Percy, wearing something that looked just like a cowboy hat but had a mask attached to the hat. The voice was slightly muffled but still easy to understand. "I wish I could get a hot babe as easily as you. Man, what I wouldn't do to fall in love with someone. A shame we can't marry others in the army till we retire."

Archal let out a short laugh and nudged Percy once more. "Yeah Perce, hurry up and marry her so we can use you as an excuse to marry within the army." He looked over to the masked cowboy, "Perhaps if you took that silly look off Marcel, girls would actually want to date you. The mysterious man look is out of fashion I hear."

"Leave him be boys." The girl that got mad at the burly man earlier came back to defend Percy after hearing the conversation. "We all fall in love at our own pace. Besides I think it would do us some good to retire after this war is over. Perhaps not Arlo over there since he is a fighting whore but the rest of us should."

An agreeance came from Archal. "I must say that sounds like a grand idea Celestial! I've been fighting for far too long. Perce?" Archal turned his head to look at his friend, "What says you?"

Percy stopped playing with his knife for just a moment and held it up to his eye, examining the blade. "I'll be honest. I don't remember a life without war. I've been a soldier for as long as I remember and even before that I was Chaos's pet in a different manor." No one but Archal understood what that meant, however the meaning had depth as Archal put his shoulder around Percy to comfort him. Sheathing the blade back into its holster, Percy mustered the best smile he could manage. "Perhaps it wouldn't be too bad to retire, though staying out of retirement is easier said than done." Percy admitted to his fellow generals.

A loud voice of the AI appeared on the intercoms. "Warning: Estimated time of arrival is five minutes and thirty seconds. Please be prepared in combat armor in case negotiations do not go through."

At this everyone within the bridge of the ship tensed up. The eight generals that stood around the room were already prepared for landing in their armor. There was a tense atmosphere even from Arlo, who down right loved to fight. They were about to be in the presence of Order, who had a much different perspective and the second strongest being in the universe.

Perhaps it was pushing it, sending eight generals of Chaos's army to go fight the second strongest man in the universe on his home turf. They would already be surrounded by many enemies and if negotiations failed then it would be a nightmare trying to exit the orbit, let alone return to Chaos's city. The reason they had the Ai was to make sure they could at least get home safely or send a message to Chaos.

"Warning: Coming out of hyperdrive now." The Ai warned everyone on the bridge. Almost in sync everyone's eyes turned to outside and saw the dark planet. At once the planetary orbital defenses locked on the ship but none of them fired, closely watching the ship as they were coming to land on the planet.

After a few moments they were being hailed and Archal walked over to the coms and turned it on. A picture of a man appeared. "This is planet designation number 002. Please tell us your reasoning for being here or you will be shot down." Blunt and straight to the point. Just as Order had liked it.

Archal stood as stiff as a board. Trying to get as many brownie points as possible. "Planetary control this is General Archal of Chaos's army. I am here to have Order sign the Treaty of Hope."

There were a few moments of silence as the man looked down at something, no doubt a confirmation code from Order himself. "General Archal you have permission to land, please follow the two designated ships as they show you where to land. Planetary control out." With that the man closed the channel and flickered out.

Within moments two ships appeared in front of theirs and guided them where to land. No words were spoken between the eight generals as the tension began to increase by folds. They were all nervous about what was going to happen and Percy was too. Even Archal, the calmest in almost any situation was silently tapping his foot impatiently. Wanting to escape from the planet and get somewhere safe.

Upon landing, Percy checked everything one last time to make sure he had it all. His two war glaives, his knife and his water pouch on the side of him. All of the essentials to make sure he could battle at his full strength "Hey, everything is going to be alright." A voice said from behind him. Percy turned around to see Marcel gently comforting Celestial.

Percy inwardly grimaced. While they were all generals of Chaos only Percy and Archal had come across Order before. The rest were no doubt terrified at not knowing what to expect and the fact that both Percy and Archal were scared didn't help them in the slightest.

"I-I know." She told Marcel. Trying to convince herself more than anyone else in the group.

As the hatch opened Percy made a split-second decision. "Marcel you're with us, the rest of you guard the ship."

Almost immediately there were retorts to be made but Archal halted all of them before they could start. "Good idea. If negotiations go south we need the ship to be protected at all time. Shalltears set up a defensive barrier but make it invisible to all. The rest of you protect her. Marcel you are with us. Your ability to travel anywhere in an instant will be needed."

No one said words, though none needed to be said. Everyone was grateful at having the chance to not meet Order. The only one that seemed not to be losing their mind with fear was Marcel and the stealth general was also the best choice.

As the hatch opened, two rows of guards stood on either side of the landing platform. Covered in gear with guns pointed to the sky. Out in front stood two generals of the Order army, ready to greet them.

"Good evening generals of Chaos. This way please." General Nightfall stated on Percy's left. The man was perhaps one of the kindest in Order's army and had the best manners from being raised within the capital of Order's city. However, that didn't fool Percy. His mind was perhaps the best the universe had to offer and many plans over the years were disrupted and destroyed because of this man.

On the right of Percy stood a psychopath general who was known for her suicidal tactics. General Kaliyo was one that dove head first to a battlefield and almost nearly came out on top each time. She also loved to flirt with Archal if the wink she gave him was anything to go by.

Silently the three generals began to follow both generals. The man on the side of them were watching as they took each step, as if waiting for a mess up to happen so they would have the okay to shoot.

At the end of the landing zone stood a platform that the two generals stood on and gestured the three generals of Chaos to stand on. Hopping on, the platform began to fly to its destination which gave Percy a good view of the land.

The city was rather dull yet beautiful. There was an architectural design that seemed rather basic but had reasoning to it. All across the land Percy peered down to see the children laughing, ignorant of what was happening outside of the planet.

"Beautiful isn't it?" Percy turned to see General Nightfall staring at him. "What happens when war isn't a part of our everyday lives. Children living the lives that they are supposed to, developing new technology and exploring different ways things are done."

Percy looked down at a park that was within the city. A family stood together having a picnic, it was something that Percy hadn't seen in a long time. They all looked so peaceful being with their own family. "I have done war for so long, that I am afraid of what the future of my life will hold without fighting for peace. What shall we all do when peace has finally landed in our grasp. Will we acknowledge it? Is it finally here General Nightfall?"

General Nightfall stared at Perseus for a moment and it was then it clicked for Percy. They were just two men on opposite sides of the war, unlike a few of the counterparts around them they did not want war in the first place but only stepped up because their leaders needed them to." "I hope so General Blood."

General Blood, a disgusting title that reminded Percy of what he had done to countless men and women in the war. One that he wished to leave in the past but was a reminder of who he was each and every day.

"You guys are so boring." General Kaliyo hummed to herself and rolled her eyes in disgust at both Nightfall and Percy. "I have no idea what I'm supposed to do once the war is over! If it was up to me it would still be continuing. At least it gives me something to do."

Archal looked at one of his longtime enemies in disgust. "Don't you have anything else to do? If I were you I would work on taking out all of the blood from your hair. Who knows how long it has stained for." It was a rather snide comment but Percy could see some truth in it. When Percy had first fought General Kaliyo she had blonde hair that seemed to glow with the sun shining on it. Now her hair seemed to be closer to red then blonde.

Before Kaliyo could retort, a big citadel came into view. A place that Percy never thought he would be able to just walk into without being struck down. The platform came to a halt just in front of the building steps. "This way please." General Nightfall asked them.

Archal was the first to follow the man, though not before shooting an angry look at Kaliyo. Kaliyo in return just stuck her tongue out, looking more amused then anything.

The gates were huge and looked imposing to anyone walking in them. Many pairs of eyes watched as the two generals of Order's army were followed by the generals of Chaos's army. It seemed as if everyone had known about the war but not many knew about the treaty that was planned today. Catching Archal's eye. He nodded in agreement. Percy knew that Archal was thinking the same thing as him. Not a good sign to come just yet.

They came across another doorway, this one was one of pure elegance and based on the structural design that Percy had memorized, lead directly to the throne room where Order was no doubt waiting. Before entering the throne room. General Nightfall turned around and looked at the three generals. "You will be in the presence of one of the creators of the universe. I suggest you bow when you go in." None of the generals had anything to comment as he opened the door and entered. Percy quickly shuffled behind Archal with Marcel right behind him.

The man was just as daunting as Percy remembered him to be on the battlefield. He was comfortably sitting on the chair. His black hair cleanly done and a perfectly shaved face. His black eyes reminded Percy of space itself as he stared into the three generals. Both General Nightfall and Kaliyo moved to the side of the throne room.

Percy looked over to see Marcel practically petrified and it was only till Percy gave him a light shove that he was able to come back to his senses. Marcel wordlessly thanked Percy as he snapped back into form.

Once they were a fair distance away, Archal got on his knees and bowed. Percy and Marcel both following suit. Order showed no hint of emotion on his face, just as he was always known for doing. "Generals, you may rise." His voice was apathetic and yet his eyes were unwavering, waiting for them to make a move.

At once, all three generals rose with their hands behind their backs. Showing as little hostility to the man as they could.

There was a tense silence that followed soon afterwards as Order inspected each one individually. As soon as the man's eyes fell upon Percy, they widened just a fraction of an inch. "General Blood. What a surprise you would come to something as mundane as this. I am surprised Lady Chaos would agree for you to be in my presence."

While Archal and Perseus were not phased in the slightest. Marcel's eyes widened. "You know?" He practically whispered it to himself but each ear in the throne room picked it up.

Lord Order's lips twitched up in just the slightest. "I miss the old generals. A shame this war happened. We taught you practically from scratch and trained you to be the deadliest in the galaxy. A shame a few died and the others were imprisoned." Order reminisced about the times before the war.

Percy grimaced slightly. The training he went through while under Order and Chaos had been hell but it made him who he was today so he couldn't complain. Out of one hundred participants only eight survived. Percy and Archal were two of them while the other six were either killed or sealed under layers and layers of magic that priests back at Chaos's city were trying to crack.

"Lord Order." Archal began, "We have the treaty with us and we would prefer if you would look over it and quite hopefully sign it." Archal reached into hit armor and pulled out a cylinder tube that contained a piece or parchment. Handing it over to general Nightfall he continued, "I have full authority to negotiate the terms of it if it is not to your liking."

Order smiled briefly. "Ah Archal. I am glad you and Percy were the two to live throughout this ordeal. You always were Chaos's and I favorites. Though Star was always a keeper too, a shame I had to cut off her head." He told the generals as he accepted the tube and took out the paper.

He was messing with them, trying to crawl under their skin so he would have an excuse to continue the war. While it didn't work with Percy or Archal, there was an uneasy shift in how Marcel was moving. It was clear he wasn't happy of how his predecessor had died. Star had specialized in recon and assassination, much better then Marcel was now.

"Lord Order, may you please read the contents." Archal asked, clearly unhappy with the situation at hand. Both him and Percy were used to his antics, getting under people's skin was something he was a master at.

"If it makes you happy Archal, I suppose I will." Order gingerly took out the piece of parchment and begun reading the terms for the treaty.

Percy himself wasn't particularly sure what the terms of the treaty came to be. He was on the battlefield as the terms were being made, leading the charge against Order and his forces. Archal had read over the treaty and found it acceptable before they had arrived on the planet.

After a few tense moments of silence. Percy could see the stone-cold expression in Order as he read the treaty. It was clear he wasn't happy with the terms of the treaty nor was he angry. As he read he placed a hand in front of his mouth, slightly covering it as he was deep in thought. "Interesting." Order said out loud, more to himself as he placed the parchment on his arm stool.

Leaning forward he looked at the three generals. "No."

That took the three of them by surprise. Both general Nightfall brought out their respective weapons but stopped as Order held up his hand.

Percy was slightly confused and the same was said for his fellow generals. Archal shifted abruptly. "What do you mean no? Chaos gave me full rights to change the-"

A sharp glare cut him off, reminding Archal who stood in front of him. "None of the terms are what I want. What I would want would not be accepted if you agreed to it, however that does not mean the possibility of a treaty is over." Order shifted his gaze from Archal to Percy.

Percy tensed, while Archal technically was in a position above Percy. If asked by anyone in the army, Percy was the highest in the chain of command due to his personal affairs with Lady Chaos. While he had rejected her advances thus far, it was still obvious that she loved him deeply and respected anything that Percy did.

Percy took a step-in front of Archal, "What is it you want Order?"

The man almost gave a predatory grin. It was then Percy's eyes widened. This was planned from the beginning; the whole treaty had been just a farce in the eyes of Order up until this point. This was his true intention.

Percy stared down his mentor. The man that had molded him and Archal into the perfect warriors and he knew the man was no slouch when it came to combat. "What do you want Order?" Percy repeated the question.

Order rose a slender eyebrow, "No Lord? Though I suppose I am no longer your leader. In terms of loyalty you always were the strongest of will. I am willing to give Chaos anything she wants for the treaty if she gives me one thing in return."

No words were spoken after a few moments of silence until Percy was the first to speak up, "And what is it you want?"

A grin that had been help back finally showed on Order's features. The look was sinister and delighted that Percy was talking to him. "I want the soul of Void."

"No." Percy refused not a mere moment after he asked the question. "We are not fools Order. With the soul of Void, you could easily overthrow Chaos when you pleased and wipe the entire universe of existence."

Order looked slightly disgruntled at having been found out so soon. "You always were too smart for your own good Perseus. I suppose that will be your downfall." Order whispered to himself but Percy heard it as clear as day.

It was as if it came in slow motion, Order was resting on his throne in an eloquent fashion and next he was pulling his sword down on Percy. Percy barely had time to parry the blow away from his comrades before he had to dodge the incoming strike from General Kaliyo.

General Nightfall looked saddened that negotiations didn't go through, out of everyone in the room it was clear he really hadn't wanted the war to continue. "A shame the war will still continue."

Percy's eyes flashed over to Marcel and Archal. "Marcel take Archal and get out of here. Override code #7264 Charlie Alpha." It was a code specified towards the other generals of command when it was to protect the high general.

Archal knew it as well. A shock look appeared in his eyes, "Wait Perc-" Before he could respond Marcel had already grabbed him and teleported away. Leaving Percy alone to defend against two generals and Order himself.

"Hey! The fun was just getting started." Kaliyo pouted at losing two of the participants already. "three verse one just isn't fair!"

Order however just looked amused. "If I remember you were the one to create that code. Funny you are using it on him now out of all time." Order said, examining his sword and falling into a sword stance, waiting for Percy to make his move.

Percy smiled sadly, who knew he would be at this point. "You know I refuse to be taken alive right."

Kaliyo furrowed her eyebrows. Confused at what he was saying. "Huh? I mean I planned on killing you in the first place."

Nightfall shook his head and held up his hand at Percy. "No Kaliyo, we have to capture him at all costs. Don't we Lord Order?"

Order never said anything though as he stared at Percy. "I should have tried harder to bring you over to my side Perseus. I was able to bring over half of you and its clear I didn't try hard enough bringing all of you. Want to know a secret though?" Order smirked over at Percy, ready to lunge at him. "I was able to bring over six of you in the end. I never killed Star, nor Phantom. They are working on different planets. Trying to make Chaos fall. It was easy to manipulate them to my side so I will offer the same offer to you as them.

Taking a step forward. Order dropped his blade which dissipated before it touched the ground. "Join me, and we can destroy Chaos once and for all. You will rule by my side with the rest of your generals. The last ones that are sealed at Chaos's city I will unleash and once I have you Archal will follow in suit and join as well. He would do anything to save you.

"As tempting of an offer. I am afraid I must now report back to Lady Chaos with what you told me." Percy stared at Order and opened his water pouch, manipulating the water around him. "I truly am sorry sir, but I will stay loyal to my queen to the Void and back."

Order watched him with an unwavering gaze "Take him alive. We will torture him to our side if need be." At once the same sword was recreated from the ground and brought back into the hands of Order.

Water shot quickly at Kaliyo. She was the only one without any sort of magical substance and would be hard pressed to break out of it. The water quickly brought her to the ground before she could move. Ignoring the 'hey!' Percy brought his sword up and blocked a strike from Order which broke the concrete underneath him.

Order then backed up for a ball of light to be shot directly at Percy's head. Falling onto his back he missed the orb of light that passed right over his head and rolled to the side to dodge a blow from Order which slammed into the concrete.

Changing the movement of water, it changed from bounding her to covering her mouth. A process that if no one helped her out, she would eventually die. Her muffled screams echoed throughout the chamber but neither Order nor Nightfall paid any attention as they continued their relentless assault against Percy. It was clear who was more important out of the two of them.

"Come on Percy. I taught you better than that." Order told Percy as Percy narrowly parried a blow to his side and backed up.

Rather than responding, Percy held his hand up. The water that was around Kaliyo had the pressure tighten and it begun to enter her system at an alarming rate. The girl would no doubt be dead within moments.

At a snap of Orders fingers the water disappeared and Kaliyo fell to the ground, struggling to breath. Her rasping coughs filled the throne room.

Dodging another bolt of light, Percy took out his knife and threw it at Nightfall. The man by with ease deflected it to the side and it flew up into the air as Percy parried Order's blade and for the first time in the battle, struck back. Cutting his side which quickly regenerated.

A startling scream was heard in the throne room right after he was cut. Turning around he saw a blade sticking out of Kaliyo's dead corpse. "That's one down." Percy murmured as he slashed at Order once more, only for the blade to block him.

"You made me deflect the blade into her." It dawned onto Nightfall. He was so focused on killing Percy and dodging his hits that he killed his own comrade in the process.

"Yes, I did." Percy said and backed up, holding up both arms and pointing them at both Nightfall and Order. "Freeze."

Both of them went into shock as they lost both control of their bodies. Order had the one thing he never had on his face as he tried his best to break out of Percy's control. It was then how much of a monster he realized he had trained. He taught Percy to control blood in every single being, which eventually over time would make him powerful enough to control himself and Chaos.

You really have outdone yourself Perseus. Order thought to himself as he picked up his blade and shoved it into his subordinate. He could do nothing but watch as the shocked look on Nightfall's face turn to anguish and then eventually death.

Now it was just Order and Percy in the room. If he had known of the ability he would have brought Percy to his side before anyone else, he should have begun working on him before any of the other generals. The ability to control anyone in the universe was one of a kind and an ability that he had no idea could appear. "What will you do now Perseus. There is no telling what my death will do to all those around me." It was true. When Void had faded from existence there had been a black hole in his wake which destroyed the entire galaxy. There was no doubt that something similar to the size would happen, the entire world would be torn to shreds.

Percy smiled sadly at the man one point in his life he had called his teacher, mentor even father. "I will do anything to protect my queen."

The doors opened up. "Sir! The ship has left the system! Should we..." One of Order's soldiers looked in shock at the scene of Order on standing in front of Percy. "Sir?"

Order closed his eyes. He had lost, he had made a mistake of messing with Chaos and now had to take the fault for it. "Do it Perseus. Long live the queen."

Percy blinked as he felt tears begun to fall from his eyes. Was he afraid of death after all this time? Or was he afraid that he had to kill someone he once considered a father?

No... he wanted to see Chaos one last time, and now he wouldn't be able to.

"Long... long live the queen." Percy said with tears in his eyes as he controlled Order to kill himself.

That was all he knew.

Thousands of parsecs away a woman was nervously drinking her tea. Waiting for the results of the treaty to come in as she sat on her throne.

A shiver rolled down her spine and she abruptly stood up, spilling the tea all over the front of her shirt. "My lady?" A maid ran over to her.

Shakily, the woman tried to take a step but fell to the ground. "Percy, you promised."

The number of tears shed that day couldn't be counted.
