Chapter 1 - Metal Armed Assassin's Arrival
A waggon was riding along a dirt trail as a hooded passenger sits in the waggon as it rides along. All seems quiet until a large earth dragon came from out of the ground. It let out a roar before looking to strike the wagon but, someone sliced its arm off its body.
The passenger the wagon had been holding came from out of nowhere a sword in hand. "Class 1 Danger Beast an Earth Dragon." His clothes consisted of a blue cloak with a hood, black gloves and black arm guards, blue pants, black boots and, a white sword sheath on his side.
The earth dragon turned its attention to its attacker and roared as it went to strike the small creature. Only it missed as the hooded fighter had ran up its arm digging his sword into the dragons flesh. The dragon roared in pain as its arm was sliced open before being slashed across the throat. With the last strike being a downwards over head cleve slicing the dragon's neck down its stomach its blood gushed from its wounds.
The hooded fighter landed sheathing his sword as the beast fell over unmoving. "That wasn't any fun."
The wagons drivers ran up to their savior. "That was amazing."
"You took down a class one danger beast all by yourself. Thank you."
The hooded man smiled as he bowed his head. "It was my pleasure to assist you. My names Dante. I'm heading to the imperial Capital and I was wondering if you could give me a ride?"
One of the drivers looked at him like he was crazy. "Are you crazy? Why go to the Capital?"
Dante was confused. "What do you mean 'Why go the Capital?' I'm looking to join the imperial army of course. That way I can make enough money to save my home village."
"Look kid I get it but, the Capital is crawling with monsters even worse than any danger beast."
Dante raised an eyebrow. "What? How are danger beasts in crawling around the Capital?"
"No not danger beasts worse than that. Its people with the hearts of beasts."
Dante just laughed. "Yeah okay thanks for the warning. But, I'll take my chances." Dante grabbed something from the wagon before he pulled on a pack he had been carrying with him. "Stay safe guys." Dante just walked off heading towards the Capital. "Because...my friends. We made a promise."
Dante walked down the dirt trail before reaching the Capital City walking through the gates and onto the streets. He looked around the city and how big it really was compared to any story he had been told about it.
"Wow this place is massive I can't believe I actually made it here. I'll probably make enough to buy the village outright. But, first I need to find where I enlist." He walked the streets for awhile before finally finding the place to enlist for the army.
"Alright so you want to enlist..fill this forum out and bring it back to me."
Dante looked it over and felt a tick mark on his head. "Uh this says I'll be starting as a Private."
"Yes. What you think your special?"
Dante put the forum down and looked the man straight in the eyes. "No. I'd like a better forum that says I'll start as a captain."
Without much warning Dante was kicked out and onto the street. "If you hadn't noticed the Capital is going through a depression and I have more applicants than I can handle! Now get out of here!" the door was slammed shut.
Dante just groaned as he sat there. "Hmm..maybe I'll stage a kidnapping and swoop in to save the day. No that's dumb."
"Hello!" Dante looked back to see a busty blonde standing behind him. "What's with the long face? Don't worry big sis is here to cheer you up."
Dante's eyes were wide and his mouth gaped at what he saw. "I love this place…"
The blonde looked at him. "Hey focus up here. Let me guess you came from the countryside in search of fame and fortune right?"
Dante stood straight up with confusion. "What!? How the hell did you know that!?"
The blonde laughed at him. "I've lived here a long time so it's easy to spot a new face. You want to know something.. I know a fast way to become a captain in the army."
Dante shot up and clasped his hands together. "Please tell me! Please Please!"
The blond girl smiled. "Alright but, first you have to treat me to some lunch."
"Deal!"
Dante soon regretted it as he sat across from the busty blonde bombshell who was drinking excessively as he just sat there.
She downed another mug with a happy sigh and a smile. "There isn't a bad time to get a nice drink!" She looked at him. "Aren't you gonna drink some?"
Dante shook his head. "No..look just tell me how I can get promoted really quick!"
The blonde looked at him. "Well first your gonna need a lot of money..I know a guy who can help if you make it worth his while."
Dante placed a large sack full of gold coins on the table one of two he had. "This should cover it right?"
"Woah! How'd you get that?" She eyed the bag with interest.
Dante just smiled. "I got as a reward for killing class one danger beats on the road no big deal."
The girl took the sack and started walking away. "Well make sure to remember the lesson today bye!"
Dante sat there for awhile until it was dark and slammed his head on the table realizing he just got scammed. He groaned before walking outside in the lit up streets as he search for the girl who scammed him. He didn't find a single clue on where she was except an empty sack that used to hold all his money lying in the street.
Dante groaned as he clenched his fists. "Damn her! That stupid blonde took all my money!" He then slumped over. "Guess that was my learning experience...never trust a hottie.."Dane walked around the city looking for a place to sleep and stopped on a bridge sitting down sighing. "Looks like I'm sleeping here tonight…"
A carriage that was crossing soon stopped and who came out of it was a young girl who walked up to Dante. "Hello there. If your looking for a place to stay you can come with me if you want."
Dante looked up a the girl. "Sorry I'm broke."
The girl laughed. "Well if you weren't you wouldn't be here now would you?"
The two men driving her carriage walked up to explain a bit more. "Lady Aria has a soft spot for helping those in need."
"You should really take her up on her offer."
Dante thought about it before sighing again. "Well..it be better than sleeping on the street."
The girl Aria took him home which was a large mansion which Dante felt like he just died and is being taken into heaven. Aria took Dante through the mansion to meet her parents and from the look of it they lived wealthy lives.
Dante was snapped out of his trance when the couple spoke. "Oh I appreciate the kindness. I hope I'm not intruding."
"Nonsense. We are happy to let you stay. Please sit." Dante sat across from Aria's father who sipped some tea and listened to Dante's story. "So you are looking to make a name for yourself in the capital army hmm?"
Dante nodded. "Yes sir."
"Well the capital is a wonderfully peaceful place surrounded by squabiling tribes. You know that if things were to get worse you'd be called on to fight. You know that right?"
Dante nodded. "Yes I am. I'd be ready to fight if I have too."
The mother looked at him. "Tell me are you alone?"
Dante shook his head. "There were three of us. My friends Sayo and Ieyasu came with me. But, we got attacked by bandits and got seperated. I know they can take care of themselves but, I'm still worried."
"Well I have a friend in the military. I can give him your name and he can look for your friends."
Dante smiled. "Thank you so much."
Dante had been given a room to sleep in until the next day where he was with Aria on a shopping spree and a guard accompening them gave Dante a warning. The King is only a child and the Minister controls from the shadows and, anyone who speaks out id beheaded. He was even told of a group of assassins called Night Raid who kill upper class citizens and other people of importance. Those warnings rang in Dante's head even after returning and helping the guards unload the huge amount of items Aria bought. He just couldn't get Night Raid out of his head so he just took to walking around the halls that night in order to think. He thought he heard something and ran to see what it was only to stop and look out the nearest window.
Staring back at him was the assassins of Night Raid. "Its them. Night Raid." He shook his head before thinking. "I need to do something.." He watch as a girl with black hair dropped down and a man in armor carrying a spear behind her. "Holy shit.." Dante ran down the hall to find Aria and try to save her at least.
Dante ran out of the house and into the woods he was hoping he could find Aria before Night Raid does he wasn't about to let them kill an innocent girl. As he ran he heard a pair of voices so he followed the sound until he reached a clearing.
The guard saw him and felt relief. "Good your here. I'll get the lady into the shed you hold them off."
Dante felt his heart drop. "What!? How am I supposed to!?" He turned to see that same black haired girl from before drop down. "Aw shit.." Dante drew his sword which was a white bladed katana with blue wrappings on the hilt. "Too late to complain."
The girl charged Dante but, he was ready until she spoke. "Your not a target." She jumped over him and straight for the guard who fired at her missing because she dodged it. "You are." She slashed him across the stomach cutting him in half.
When she went to strike Aria Dante charged her and slashed at her only missed. "You won't kill a innocent girl."
"Then you won't step aside?" The girl stared him down. "Then you must die."
The blonde from before was walking towards the shed with a sigh. "Man it's not like Akame to take so long." She saw the girl in a black outfit and red tie Akame standing across the hooded guy from earlier. "Man that guy can't catch a break."
Dante readied himself as he and Akame charged each other as they both slammed their blades together. Akame went to stab him only Dante ducked and tried to slash upwards only she jumped back as Dante attacked her again. Slashing from side to side as each sword clashed against one and other before Akame kicked Dante in the stomach and knocked his sword out of his hand.
"Shit.."
Akame brought her sword down only Dante brought his right arm up and blocked it as the sword hit something. Akame tried again and again Dante blocked it with his right arm as Akame looked in surprise as the cloak he wore was damaged. Only under the sleeve instead of a normal arm was a arm made out of pure metal.
Dante saw the surprised expression and shrugged. "Surprise."
He grabbed Akame's sword as he kicked her in the gut before sweeping out her legs knocking her to the floor. Dante went to punch Akame's head in with his metal fist but, she dodged rolling out of the way as he hit the ground. Dante stood up as he stared her down before pulling his hood back revealing his fair tanned skin, messy blonde hair and, green eyes. He grabbed his sword and glared at Akame as he got ready again.
Akame charged at him again but, someone pulled her back confusing everyone. "What are you doing?"
"We got some time left plus I kinda owe this guy a favor." The blonde looked at him. "I bet he liked to cash it in now right?"
Despite her changed look like her new ears on her head, longer hair, clawed paws and, tail Dante recognized her face. "Wait!? It's you the chick with the boobs!"
The blonde girl smiled winking at him. "Yup that's what they call me!" She released Akame and walked towards the shed. "You think we're out her killing innocent people. I'll bet you'll change your mood when you see what's behind this door." She then kicked the metal doors off the hinges with unnatural strength. "Here it is. Welcome to the Capital."
Dante walked in and was hit with the smell of rotting corpses and what he saw was people in cages dead and deformed. Bodies hanging from the ceiling all looked like they've been tortured to death and blood smeared everywhere. "My god.."
"These people take in strangers from the countryside and torture them for their own sick twisted pleasure. That's the reality of this sweet loving family."
Dante looked up and felt ill. "Sayo...no...not you.."
"You know her?" The blonde noticed Aria trying to sneak away but, grabbed her by the head. "You didn't think we were done with you did you sweetie pie?"
Dante clenched his fists. "These people did this. The guards kept it hidden."
"Dante...Is that...you…" Dante looked to a cage to see Ieyasu barely even alive. "She brought us to their house...and gave us something to eat...then everything went dark...then that girl…" Tears fell from his eyes. "That girl tortured Sayo to death…"
Aria slapped the blondes hand off her. "Fine! Fine I did it okay! Who cares about these worthless filth! Garbage like her doesn't deserve such beautiful hair! Mine is always giving me trouble so I paid extra special attention to her! She should feel honored ungrateful pig!"
Akame redrew her sword. "I'll kill her."
"Wait.." Dante walked towards Aria.
"What don't tell me your still defending her?" The blonde assassin felt confusion.
"No.." Dante drew his sword and slashed Aria across the neck slicing her throat open as she fell back. "I'll do it!" Her blood fell across the ground and dripped from his blade.
"That was clean. He didn't hesitate. Though she was pretty hainese."
"Thank you Dante...I needed to see that.." Ieyasu coughed up blood into his hand.
Dante ran to the cage busting it open and pulling him out. "Ieyasu no!"
Ieyasu looked at Dante smiling. "You should know..Sayo never broke..she stayed strong..and I wanted to go out like a hero.." Soon Ieyasu's hand fell as Dante laid his body down after catching his hand.
Akame looked at Dante. "His strong will allowed him to stay alive long enough."
Dante gripped his blade. "Thank you Ieyasu.."
He was grabbed the blonde and was being dragged along with them as he tried to struggle to bury his friends. But, it fell on deaf ears as he was taken back anyway so he just gave up and went along and he was allowed to bury his friends.
He gave them a burial on the nearby cliff saying his goodbyes. "Looks like I'm on my own.." Suddenly the blonde girl named Leone snuck up on him laying her breasts over his head making him jump and scoot away quickly. "Gah! Don't sneak up on me like that!"
Leone laughed at his reaction before calming down keeping her smile. "So did you decide on whether or not your gonna join us?"
"After weighing my options I figured I might as well join up. Not like I have another option." Dante scratched his head as he sighed.
Leone grabbed him and started dragging him again. "Alright I'll introduce you to the rest of the team then!"
Dante first met a girl with purple hair named Sheele who seemed nice but, was a bit of an airhead but, that didn't bother him.
"Leone what the hell!?" The three looked to see a pink haired girl with her hair in twintails standing in the door."Why'd you bring this loser back to our hideout?"
Leone smiled patting his shoulder. "Oh Mine. He's gonna be one of us!"
"Oh really and you didn't even ask me for my opinion!?" Mine walked up and glared daggers into Dante before turning her back to him in a huff. "I won't allow it. He's clearly not cut from the same professional cloth as we are."
Dante groaned gritting his teeth. "What!?"
"Oh don't worry that's just Mines way of saying hello." Leone took Dante to the training field and introduced him to Bulat.
Dante then realized that he was the guy wearing the armor and immediately felt a chill up his back as he shivered.
Meanwhile in the woods. "It's almost time for Leone's bath! I'd give anything to get a look at that smoking hot bod!"
Leone stood behind the green haired pervert. "Then why not give up two fingers." He then proceeded to scream as Leone bent his arm back making him cry in pain. "You never learn do you. Next time I'll break your arm." She finally let him go. "This is Lubbock don't worry he's just an idiot."
The sun was getting lower as they walked towards a nearby river as Dante felt like he was gonna go crazy and saw a large bird over a fire.
"Akame is our resident wild child."
Akame tossed Leone some of her bird. "Leone have some." Her tone was monotone completely emotionless as he eyes locked on Dante who felt on edge. "Have you decided to join us?"
Dante jumped and nodded his head. "Yeah..I have." He caught some of the bird she tossed to him and felt welcomed enough to eat.
"Is it me or is everyone on edge today?" Leone walked over to Akame.
"That's because, the boss is back."
Dante raised an eyebrow as he ripped apart his portion. "The boss?"
Leone walked around the fire to see a woman sitting there and smiled. "Boss your back! So did you bring me anything good?"
"Now why would I do that. I understand that you finished your assignment three days over due." Leone tried to turn and run but, the women's prosthetic arm shot out and grabbed her before pulling her back. "When facing a powerful opponent you should know better than to let yourself be caught up in right? Anyway tell me about the boy."
Leone stood up placing a hand on his shoulder. "Oh that's right. He's gonna be joining us."
Dante felt a familiar shiver go down his spine.
"Does he seem promising?"
Leone smiled. "Absolutely."
The boss stood up grabbing her cloak. "Akame gather the others I want to hear about everything including that boy."
Dante had a real bad feeling about this. "My god these guys are a bunch of circus freaks.."
Once everyone was gathered up they all stood in front of the boss and explained everything to her. "I see. Well Dante allow me to formally welcome you to Night Raid."
Dante nearly dropped. "I feel so welcomed...I ask one thing of you though. Once the government is taken down for good will you help my village?"
The woman nodded. "Of course. You have my word."
Dante bowed his head. "Thank you. That's all I ask."
"Now Akame your going to be incharge of training him. If he seems worthless kill him." The Boss looked over at Akame who nodded.
"Are you kidding me!? It just had to be her…" Dante groaned internally.
Later that night Dante and Akame were cooking for the others and couldn't help but, remember the time he spent with Ieyasu and Sayo learning how to cook. "Sayo...Ieyasu...who knew learning all that stuff would come in handy…"
The next morning Akame took Dante to a lake. "Were going to catching fish for dinner." Akame stripped down to a swimsuit.
"But, aren't these fish hard to catch?" Dante watched as Akame jumped in and after a few moments a bunch came flying out of the lake into her basket.
"You must swim to the bottom and hide your aurra. Then you attack. Are you coming?"
Dante threw off his shirt and Akame saw his right arm all the way up to his shoulder was metal it looked sleek and had a few scratchings. "Alright her goes…" Dante ran and dived in swimming to the bottom of the lake managing to catch quite a few fish before coming up for air. "I think I get it."
After a short while the two baskets were full of fish and the two assassins climbed ashore to gather their handy work as Akame got a closer look. His shoulder had scarring and his arm was prosthetic went up past his shoulder.
Akame looked at him. "How did it happen?"
Dante stopped as he finished putting on his shirt. "It was a long time ago..I'd rather not talk about it right now."
Dante grabbed his basket of fish and put it on his back before walking away leaving Akame there to think. After some time Dante and Akame had returned to the base with two full baskets of fish and prepared them for lunch. The silence was awkward as Dante and Akame prepared lunch.
"It happened when I was a kid.." Akame looked over at Dante. "My village was attacked by bandits and when I tried to stop one of them..well..you can see what happened."
"I'm sorry." Dante just chuckled at Akame.
"It's alright. I'll live I'll make sure that I survive to the bitter end." Dante cut up some veggies.
After a nice day Leone was out in the city as it got dark and returned with two photo's of an oil merchant and guards commander. She explained that a woman wanted them to die for all they've done which was killing innocent people.
Leone placed a large sack of gold coins on the table over the posters. "Here's her payment. She paid it all up front."
Dante was surprised at the amount that was paid. "I wonder how she was able to pay that much."
Leone gripped her sleeve. "She smelled sickly..I think she's been selling her body."
The Boss looked at Leone. "Are you certain?"
Leone looked back at her. "My senses have never steered me wrong."
The Boss lit a cigarette as she took a huff before blowing out smoke. "Then Night Raid accepts the job. If we are going to have a new nation there is no room for this trash."
They went over a plan on how to deal with both and how to go about it as Akame can't be seen.
"Look I'll take out Ogre. I know how much it hurts to lose someone. I refuse to let anyone else suffer that feeling." Dante gripped his sword tightly.
The Boss smiled. "Alright then. Dante you will take Orge down while Akame and Leone will deal with the oil merchant."
Dante looked at Akame. "Don't worry Akame I'll be back once its done."
"I'll withhold my opinion until you finish the mission." Akame walked away as Dante looked down slightly.
Leone and Dante walked towards the bar that Ogre would be drinking at and when Leone saw the look Dante had she decided to tell him of Akame's past. He felt like Akame went through much worse than he has since she was trained to be a killer in the Imperial military. He couldn't get that thought out of his head but, he needed to focus on the here and now. Leone left him so now he was on his own so he threw on his hood covering his face.
Dante found Orge just as he expected and Orge was much taller in person and looked like a brute. "Excuse me master Ogre. I have a matter to discuss with you. It is of great importance."
Ogre turned around looking down at him. "Alright let's hear it."
Dante looked around. "I can't say here. May we speak privately?"
Ogre had a funny feeling about this kid but, followed him anyway to a dark alleyway where no one was around. "Alright what is it you want? Hurry up I'd like to get home."
Dante got on one knee. "I beg of you..allow me to join the imperial army."
Ogre just felt annoyed as he turned to leave. "You wasted my time with that go to the enlisters office."
Dante smiled slowly drawing his sword. "I tried being nice. But, they wouldn't take my application."
Ogre had stopped drawing his sword. "Well it's not my fault your a puny weakling!" He turned to cleve Dante's head only Dante slashed him across the stomach with great speed. "He acted without fear...been awhile since someones defied me…" Ogre fell over seemingly dead.
Dante looked back and smiled. "Its done. I should return to base."
Ogre wasn't dead as he went to cleve Dante again but, Dante dodged it and got sent against the wall of a building. Dante jumped up bringing his sword down on Ogre's as the two locked up as Dante growled as he swiftly sliced off both of Ogre's arms as he came down from the air and slashed Ogre's throat and across his entire body with blinding speed.
Ogre's blood fell onto the street below as Dante sheathed his sword. "It's done."
Dante returned to base and gave his report much to the Boss's pleasure. "You've defeated a powerful opponent on your own. Well done."
Dante smiled as he looked at Akame. "See Akame I came out unharmed." Akame pulled his cloak and shirt off him as he went silent until. "What the hell are you doing to me!?"
"Leone..Boss grab him." Akame had yanked down his pants leaving him in his boxers and was inspecting him. "Thank goodness..I've seen people die from infections because, they were too proud to report their injuries. I'm glad you survived." Akame and Dante shook hands on that.
Dante pulled his clothes back on and fixed his pants as the boss looked at him. "You'll be working with Mine next so I expect your best."
Leone laughed as Dante fell over. "Out of the frying pan into the fire good luck."
Dante groaned. "She's even worse!"
