Okay, another god eater fic here. and again, I'm sorry if the grammar, spelling , etc are kinda horrible, but itried my best to correct them.
This will be a multi chapter fic, and I will try to update as fast as I can.
and lastly, I don't own any of the characters of god eaters and the god eater franchise.
so, with that done, onto to the first chapter!
Chapter 1
A world devoured.
A world where man fought monsters, revered by others as violent gods.
Gods. Ironic to that, is that they were once worshiped by man for their blessings and miracles. Prayed that they may have good fortune, help them from their endeavors, and the like. But now…
No…
They were not the real gods of mankind. These so called "gods" could never be the same "gods" of the world or legends that were told throughout history.
No…
These so called "gods" could only be called "monsters"…
Monsters, demons, beasts, words that would oppose the word god and savior would be the accurate term for these giant monstrosities. They didn't want the prayers of mankind, "Mankind" themselves is what they want. To bring fear, to kill, to devour…
Their instincts is the only thing they could follow. They eat to gain knowledge and to gain their identity. Just like how man studies to gain their knowledge and identity. The only thing they could do is devour.
But…
Mankind had to oppose the monsters. They have to survive this world full of these so called "Gods".
That's why…
If these violent gods wants to devour mankind and the world they live in…
Then, they just have to answer to these Gods by doing something they could only do and comprehend…
They also have to devour them, just like how they devour mankind…
Somewhere in the world, lies a city bathed by the crimson sky. Buildings and sky scrapers that once had the glory to stand tall and firm, filled with brilliant lights that would lit the night sky, where stars that filled the sky would gaze upon them.
Now, they could hardly stand their ground. These masses of walls could hardly even be called buildings. They have massive holes and broken pieces of their bodies could be seen at the ground. Some parts of the buildings couldn't even be found. They were either crushed to the point they turned into sands, or they were devoured by the monsters called "Aragami".
That's right, the once called city was at the mercy of these Aragami…
The City of Mercy…
In the middle of this place, a ruined chapel can be found, filled with colorful stained glasses that was now broken. Inside the chapel, a voice came from a tiny device could be heard.
"Blood 1, this is HQ to Blood 1, do you copy?"…
A voice that could be identified as a girl came from the device.
"…Blood 1, this is HQ to Blood 1, please respond…" the voice of the girl said.
"…"
No response.
The device was held by an unconscious young man, lying on the floor of the chapel. His clothes were black in color, and a symbol of a stylized wolf was engraved at his back. To his side, was a massive black sword with crimson edge, was pierced to the ground, as if the sword was just waiting for the young man to regain consciousness.
"…ughh…" a groan escapes from the young man's lips.
He tries to stand, but his body was badly injured, that it hurts just by moving his hands.
He struggled a bit, but still succeeded to stand, gripping the sword with crimson edge to help him.
'What happened?' the young man wondered.
He squeezes his mind and tried to remember how he ended up unconscious. And then...
'oh...that's right...'
Right. he finally remembered. They were looking for their target. He split their group so they could cover more ground, and find them faster.
But as he arrives at the church, he found the the beast they were looking for. But before he could sneak at the beast, he was ambushed by another Aragami at the back.
'...hmmm...for some reason, that's all he remembered...' the young man thought.
Heard another voice coming from his the device he was holding. It was his intercom.
"….Blood 2, Blood 1 is not responding, he must be unconscious. Please help him." The young man heard the voice was coming from his intercom.
"This is Blood 2, Blood 2 to HQ, please send me his location immediately." Another voice came, but this time it was a girl with stern voice was heard.
"Alright, I'm sending his location to your device, please go hel-" But before the first voice could finish, the young man responded to them…
"…Th-This is Blood 1 to HQ, I-I'm alright, no need for that, over…"
"Blood 1!"
"Hiro!"
Both of the girls voices quickly came and startled the young man. The first voice calling him by his codename, and the second voice calling him by his real name. Both of them held concern to their voices.
The young man, now identified as Hiro, regains his composure after being startled by the voices, and gave them another response using the intercom.
"I'm fine, really, just a few scratches here and the-*cough*-re…"
"…"
"Alright Hibari-san, please send me the captains location ASAP." The girl with the stern voice said.
"Already on it, Ciel-chan. Sending his location…He's at the chapel, as of this moment." The girl, identified as Hibari, responded immediately to the stern voiced girl, who's name is Ciel.
"Wait right there captain, I'm on my way." Ciel told her captain.
Hiro wanted to tell them that he was fine, but before he could tell them from the intercom, he heard an explosion nearby. He turns his head and saw one of the colorful stained glasses was shattered to pieces and the pieces of the glass was scattered to the ground.
Among the scattered glasses, was a girl with silver hair, wearing gothic dress, with teal colored skirt. On her hand, held a black sword with light green colored edge. She scanned the church and found her captain looking at her, a little wide eyed at her little dare devil stunt she pulled.
"Captain!" Ciel called out her to captain.
"…uh..Hi?.." Hiro responded dumbfoundedly.
Ciel, a little surprised at her captains bland response, quickly came to his side and examined his condition. A few bruises, with a little blood trailing from his forehead. Must be from his earlier fall, Ciel thought. She grabs an ampule from her kit, and injected it to Hiro.
As the medicine took its effect, the injury from his forehead quickly regenerates and a few of his bruises healed. It always stings when they were using those restorative items, Hiro thought.
"Does it still hurt?" Ciel asks with concern in her voice.
"Y-yeah, I-uh I'm good…" Hiro replies, a little taken aback from their close contact, and to her poker-faced concerned expression. Really, how could she express different emotion using that poker stern face of hers, he thought quietly.
"…hmm…" Ciel was still not convinced, but she accepted her captains response as they still have something to check on their current situation.
Suddenly, both Hiro and Ciel heard a voice coming from their intercom.
" calling to HQ, this is Blood 3, Hibari, where are the captain and Ciel?!" a man's voice called hibari.
"This is HQ, calling HQ to Blood 3, currently, Blood 1 and 2's location are at the chapel, with Blood 2 tending to Blood 1."
Hibari answers the man's inquiry.
" Well, tell them to hurry the hell up! Me and Nana are getting our asses handed to us by these stupid mutts!" the man loudly says his current situation.
As Hiro hears this, he quickly interjects and asks for their location.
" Were currently at block B of this city, north of your current locati-" before he could finish what he was saying, a loud explosion was heard.
Getting worried about their comrades, Hiro and Ciel quickly dashed to the direction of their team mates.
With a single leap, both of them could jump past a height of the single-story building. Their speed was also quite fast for normal humans could attain. They also single handedly held their giant swords as if their carrying something lightweight.
These achievements were the effect of injecting Bias factors into their body, so that they could fight on par with the Aragami.
With their current speed, they arrived at their destination within a matter of a few minutes, where normal humans could take several minutes even if they exhausted themselves.
As they arrived, they saw their team mates situation. They were inside the hole of a building guarding themselves from the barrage of flaming fire balls that the wolf-like aragamis.
Garm.
They were a wolf type aragami with deep red colored hair, covered in heat resistant thick armor and skin, and massive claws that could generate flames that could easily incinerate and melt even hard metals. There vicious attacks was a big threat to them, especially if they are attacking in packs.
" This situation, we need to form a pl-Huh?" Ciel was startled as she saw a silhouette quickly jumps from where she was standing. She quickly recognized that it was her captain that had jump in to save his team.
" Leave them the HELL ALONE!" Hiro shouts as he falls and stabs his blade behind on one of the Garm's neck.
The stabbed Garm stumbles at Hiro's attack and tries to shake him off its back. As it stumbles, the other 2 Garms halted their attacks and saw one of their kind was struggling.
Upon noticing the distracted aragamis, the man inside building, wielding a massive black spear with azure tips, who was not alone and was together with another girl who also carries what looks like a massive pink hammer with booster at the back, prepares to attack the remaining aragamis.
The spear changed, its azure tip turning and gaining a black tip at the end. He plunges its tip to the aragamis side and hurled it forward.
The hammer wielding girl also attacks the other aragami by smacking her giant hammer while the thrusters at the back of it were on full throttle. The massive wolf aragami was thrown to the side.
Hiro struggles with his fight and was shaken off to the ground. He quickly stands up and faced his enemy.
Struggling to movie its injured neck, the Garm prepares to lunge at Hiro.
As it jumps right at him, Hiro's blade changes into a large gun. He fires massive white ball of energy from it directly to the approaching beast, with its recoil powerful enough to throw him back off.
As the massive ball of white energy hits the chest of the beast, a powerful explosion of freezing ice pushes the massive aragami back, with its back landing first to ground.
As it struggles to stand, Hiro calls out to Ciel.
"Ciel, NOW!"
"On it!"
Without a second to waste, Ciel jumps at the beast, with her blade turning into a giant pair of black monster jaws and chomps at the downed aragami.
The Garm lets out a roar from being bitten, and Ciel finishes her strike and turns her blade into a massive sniper rifle.
She fires three bullets not directed at the aragamis, but directly to her three members.
As the bullet hits each of them, a surge of power enters their body, blood red aura swirling around they're bodies. The three of them felt their temperatures rising, like their blood was boiling. Calling it an adrenaline was an understatement. No, it was more powerful than that. It was a state where they could feel their strength, agility, stamina, doubled.
Yes, they called this state "Burst mode".
As the red Swirling aura disappears, all three of them readies they're final strike at their targets.
The man wielding the azure spear, leaps in the air, with his spear in hand wrapped by the same blood red aura, sets his eyes on his target, and charges directly at the aragami. The spear pierces right through its head, immediately killing the beast.
At the same time, the girl wielding the pink hammer also leaps to the air, her weapon also gaining blood red aura, strikes the aragami in front of her, together with the help of the thrusters of the hammer, the strike was powerful enough to crush the whole head the beast.
With the two Garm killed, the last one finally stands up, its claws gaining heat properties, hot enough that its claws were glowing bright yellow. The wolf runs directly to Hiro, ready to kill the young man.
Hiro takes a stance, holding his massive sword using both of his hands, a stance similar to the stance that those ancient Kendo practitioners use. As he raises its blade, a massive blood red aura covers his sword. And then, when the beast was close enough for the strike, Hiro uses all of his might to slice through the Aragami. The result was a given, the aragami was sliced in half. Its upper body was split in half.
With all the Garm aragami killed, and the burst was starting to wear off.
As the power was finally gone, its toll on them finally kicked in. they became exhausted. While the Burst gives a massive boost, its recoil to the body was heavy. It drains a lot of their energy, making it not a good idea to use repeatedly.
Too tired to stand, the three of them were kneeling and/or were sitting.
"…huff…huff…"
"…huff…ho….Huff….haaaahhh…" the girl with hammer huffed. She was clearly exhausted that she drops to the ground.
Hiro examines her state, she was resting, as he could clearly see her stomach slowly rising and dropping. He turns his head to his other companion, and he saw he was also replenishing his lost energy by drinking some kind of energy drink. The spear wielder looks at Hiro after emptying his canteen.
"Hey captain, remember to tell us when you were going to take a nap during our mission, alright?" the man said to his captain, slightly annoyed.
"….huff… hehe , sorry about that Gil-san, never thought it could ambush me at the chapel…"Hiro dryly laughs as he explains what happened to him.
"…well, whatever, just don't let your guard down next time alright?" Gil, short for Gilbert, sighs at his captains carefree attitude.
"…hehe, Gil sure is a worry wart, You should already know that captain is a capable God eater. Hehe.." the girl with pink hammer said.
" I already know what he's capable of, but being to relax during mission could be our undoing, and you know that,Nana."Gilbert explains.
As they were talking, Ciel had her back facing at them, listening to their conversation. And then…
"Captain…" Ciel said in very calm voice.
Upon hearing this, the three of them slowly turns they're heads at they're vice captain. They knew this voice. It was the voice of Ciel when she was about to give a very stern lecture on anyone.
Hiro gulps at this moment "…y-yes?"…
"….Dont ever do that again. Letting your guard would be unacceptable next time. Captain, are we clear?"
"…alright. You guys don't have to worry, these things won't ever happen again, I promise…" Hiro said this with determination clear in his eyes.
Gilbert nods at this, and Nana smiles after hearing their captain being serious.
Ciel, still her back facing them nods and her hands wipes something on her face.
" …okay…" Ciel said.
After their conversation, they heard a horde of ogre tails heading to their direction.
"…oh SHI-!"
"….HUH?!..."
"Now What!.."
Hiro, Nana, and Gilbert said simultaneously. They were too exhausted now to fight another batch of aragamis. What should they-
*pit*
They suddenly heard a sound, like a button being pressed. And not long after that…
A very loud explosion occurred. One, two, three…. FOUR!... they heard four simultaneous explosion coming from the nearby building. Said nearby building collapsed at the direction of the horde of ogre tails. Thereby crushing all them and killing them all at once.
Then, they saw Ciel was holding some kind of detonating device. Ciel felt all eyes were on her direction…
"…What?" Ciel ask, confused at her teams frozen expression.
"…Nothing…." The three of them said in unison. This leaves Ciel more confused.
After their exhausting mission, the four of them returned to their base.
As they stepped inside , they were greeted by an unexpected loudmouth.
"HIIRROO!"
Hiro suddenly found himself grappled by an orange haired teen, wearing a white vest uniform, which also bears the mark of a wolf on its back.
"WHAT THE HELL, MAN?! WE THOUGHT YOU WERE A GONER?" The teenage , orange haired boy said, while holding Hiro in an armlock.
"W-W-WAI-WAIT! O-OW! LET GO! LET GO, CAPTAIN FUJIKI!" Hiro struggles.
"..Oh…sorry about that…." The teen suddenly lets him off.
"…huff…huff…thought I was a goner there."
" oi, You still didn't answer my question?!" the teen, who was called Captain Fujiki, insists. " And that's KOTA, for you! Don't want you being too formal on me. Were both captains remember!?"
"…hehe, sorry force of habit, I guess…?" Hiro replies to the other captain.
Kota keeps bombarding Hiro lectures about how to survive in their current world, with some bragging that he learned it from a grumpy silvery blond haired guy he knew whose survival rate was extraordinarily high.
The rest of Hiro's team watches the antics of the First unit leader to their captain.
" I'll be heading to my room first to get some rest, what about you guys?" Gilbert ask his other team mates.
" oh, me too! Just to get change and head for the lobby." Nana said. She quickly heads towards the elevator, humming some cheery song along the way.
" and you?" he turns his question to Ciel.
" I'm going to report our mission at the front desk for today and then rest." She said. She heard from the side someone was about to stand.
" I'll come with yo-!" it was Hiro. But he couldn't finish what he was about to say as the first unit captain quickly grabs him and drags him to the direction of the medical bay.
" no you don't, you little rascal! You're coming with me!." Kota said to Hiro.
As Ciel watches her captain being drag, she went to the front desk. She was greeted by a polite female operator of the front desk, Hibari Takeda.
"Hey, Ciel-chan!" greeted by the female operator.
"Hibari-san, here is the report for today's mission." Ciel hands Hibari some documents about their earlier mission today.
" Always quick to finish the reports, that's Ciel-chan for you." She accepts the papers and went right back to the computer to input the report.
" Oh, almost forgot, how was Hiro-kun's injury? Hope its not anything fatal." Hibari stops typing at her keyboard, as she asks Ciel about their captain.
"…sigh… The same as ever, I suppose." She sighs. Ciel continues to describe how Hiro just laughs at his injuries and says they were nothing to be worried about. As she explains, she gives her opinion , with some complaints, about how lax and carefree their captain sometimes.
" Right now, he's being dragged by the first unit captain to the medical bay for further check-ups." She said to the operator.
After her explanation, she heard Hibari giggle.
Ciel was a little surprised, did she say something funny?
" Well, I cant argue with you on that. This place had already seen people like that. And I can't blame Kota's reaction, he almost lost his friend because he was also lax and carefree." Hibari said. " Speaking of Hiro-kun, he reminds me of the former leader of the First unit."
The former leader of the First unit.
According to Hibari and the others, he was quite brave and reckless. After hearing many of his achievements, Ciel can't help but compare him to Hiro. Both of their traits were so similar, some of the Anagura inhabitants thought Hiro was the younger brother of the former leader. They even told them that they're face looked similar.
'Maybe they really are related' Ciel thought curiously.
" Anyway, you should also head to your room and rest Ciel-chan. You also looked tired." Hibari told the young girl.
Ciel did as she was told. She excused herself from the operator and went to her room. She wasn't exactly tired as she expected. Well, not physically. More like she was mentally tired, worrying that something really did happen to their captain earlier today.
Still, she needed to rest up and recuperate.
After resting in her room, she might visit her captain at the Medical Bay and give him an earful.
at the HQ's Medical Bay...
"Hello!"
Kota, together with Hiro in tow, barge at the room.
"Is there no one he-Woah!"
Kota could barely be able to dodge the flying scalpel thrown at their direction. He heard footsteps coming to him.
"CAPTAIN FUJIKI! Didn't you hear what I said about barging at the door!?"
A nurse with blue haired shouted at the captain.
Another Beautiful woman, with scarlet hair and the current doctor the medical Bay, appeared and saw the situation.
"My, my, another Lover's quarrel, are we Mikoto-san?" the beautiful doctor said to the the blue haired nurse.
" THIS IS NOT A LOVER'S QUARREL! DR. CLAUDIUS.!" Both the blue haired Mikoto and the orange haired Kota said in unison.
Hiro watches the scene in front of him. if he were to describe it, it wasn't a lovers quarrel. They were more like husband and wife fighting over trivial things.
"Well if you say so~..." the doctor said in a sing-song voice.
She went past the two quarreling idiots and went to Hiro's side.
"How are we today, Captain-san? another reckless day at the job, I suppose?" she ask the captain, who was now lying on the empty patients bed.
" You could say that..." he said in embarrassed manner.
" Well, you're stubborn, so I won't give a lecture on your behavior. I'm sure you already had an earful of complaints from your friends." she examined his body.
After the examination, the Dr. simply said to take medicines for the bruises and he'll be good to go in no time.
as he leaves the quarters, both Kota and the Nurse Mikoto we're finished arguing and ignoring each other. Kota followed Hiro and went to the lobby.
they were talking about some trivial things, like the Bugarally series. Really, Hiro never thought he could get hooked to those movies.
After that, Kota became somewhat serious.
"Hey, has anything weird happen with your missions lately?"
"Like what?" Hiro asks, a little confused at the sudden change of topic.
"...Its nothing. Forget about I asked. Anyway, you better really take care of yourself from now on. Younever know what might happen out there."
Hiro nods, and they parted ways at the elevator.
' Well that was kinda weird...' Hiro thought.
did something happen to them during their mission?.
There was an eccentric doctor inside the Den of Anagura. A smile could be usually seen on his face. However, his usual smile was replaced by a concerned frown. Right now he was reading some reports that could be a potential threat to them if they' didn't do something about this.
The doctors name was Dr. Paylor Sakaki.
"…Hmm..this is…" the doctor kept reading the papers in his hands. He puts them down and takes off his glasses, massaging the temple of his head.
" Are you sure about this, Tsubaki-san?" he asks the woman who gave the doctor the papers and was sitting in front of him.
The woman, named Tsubaki Amamiya, retired god eater of Fenrir, nods .
"About 80 % sure, doctor. Based in these investigations, our God eaters might be in grave danger."
" Indeed. Basing from our past encounters with these type of Aragami's, I think these one has a conscious mind of its own. An intelligent one, too, it seems."
"You think its another Aragami possessing The Singularity?" Tsubaki asks the doctor.
" I can't say for certain. Past encounter with the Singularity were they took the shape of the human, or humans who were infected with too much oracle cells inside the body." The doctor remembers Shio and the former captain of the BLOOD unit, Julius Visconti.
If he were to deduct and came up theory he had in mind, the Singularity needed something from both the human body and Aragami and be compatible to be created. That's just his vague conclusion he came up with, as he, an expert in Aragami, couldn't even find a proper explanation.
'But…'
He looked through the picture of the subject of this conversation. He didn't see any human resemblance at the beast. More like, it took the form of…
No…
They needed further investigations about this Aragami.
For now…
"Let's keep this information for now, we don't want to cause another panic after the incident at Friar half a year ago.
"…" Tsubaki just nods at the doctor.
' I hope this isn't something so grandscale like last time…' the doctor thought quietly to himself…
Somewhere deep within these night sky…
An abandoned place slumbers.
Destroyed platforms, walls with massive cracks and holes, filled with books that were scattered to the ground and broken shelves that once held them.
Illuminated by the stars above, a lone wolf, with a scar at across its left eye stood at the center of the massive room.
But…It wasn't alone….
Facing the lone wolf, there it stood at a ground higher than the former.
…kill…
The beast stood, with crimson eyes gazing upon the lone wolf.
…ki….kill….
The lone wolf's claws started to glow. Within seconds, the glowing claws emit burning flames, ready to take down the beast in front of it.
….KIIILLLL!...
Both of them lunge at each other.
Burning flames faces against those demonic Crimson eyes…
It was either to kill or be killed. Only one had to survive out of this battle.
That night, the beautiful bright moon gaze upon the two beast.
Even though the moon emits a cerulean light, it felt as if it was dyed by deep red color.
…
"…kill…GoDs…DevOur…EatErs…"
