Chapter One: Night Rampage

The night was calm and peaceful, the moon's light illuminating the already glowing Central City. This was the capital city on Mobius and the white house was not that far from it. Cars were bustling along the streets and the citizens were enjoying a night in the town, expressions of joy and happiness filling their faces.

In a nearby park, screeching screams were heard, people running in fear as adrenaline pumped their veins like vaccine. A group of hawk gangsters were stealing people's valuables, Magnum Revolvers and Desert Eagles in their arsenal. Walking forward to a random citizen, a blue hawk grabbed a small boy by his shoulder.

"Hey, give me your money kid!" the tone in his voice signaling a command.

The boy he was referring to was a golden dog with dirty blonde chest fur, the shape resembling a heart. He had messy hair on the top of his head and a giant bang in the shape of a boomerang. On his back was the tattoo of a cross. He wore black shorts and a pair of black sneakers, on the outline read 'Air Force' in white lettering. Around his neck was a black bandanna and the final touch was a pair of black sunglasses. The boy peered over his shoulder to look at the hawk.

"Why is your hand on my shoulder? I hope you know who I am." the dog spat.

"Kid, you're in for a world of hurt now." the hawk reeled his fist back, swinging madly only for the boy to block.

"Well I wouldn't say that we met on the best circumstances but well, let's just get this over with right now. Sorry if I send you guys to the hospital. But you should know the name of your opponent. Name's Damien Angels, nice to meet ya!" Damien smirked, back flipping to gain some sort of distance.

The blue hawk wasn't going to be outsmarted or mocked by a little kid, his feet swiftly taking him forwards. Another attempt at a punch, the hawk's fist shot forward but Damien jumped over him, smashing his opponent in the back with a quick roundhouse kick. In one swift motion, the hawk pulled out his Desert Eagle, two bullets zooming towards Damien but the dog was quick on his feet, barrel-rolling out of danger.

The only shielding that the hound had now was a tree but that wouldn't last long at this rate, bullets cracking into the wooden frame. A green hawk and a black hawk began to go around the tree, Damien already climbing up the tree with his sharp claws. The hawks began to do the same, guns in hand as Damien has predicted. With only a few feet of distance between him, the hawks and the ground, his plan would probably work.

For the love of God, please let this work., Damien thought as he jumped downwards. The hawks smirked at his stupid action but it was part of his plan. Swiftly snatching the guns from their hands, Damien shot two rounds into each hawk, blood leaking out from their wounds, their bodies hitting the floor with a thud. Instinct came into play as the Angel ducked to dodge a bullet before dashing away, blades of grass and pieces of gravel kicking up.

"There he is, get that little hound now." a red hawk screamed obviously being the leader.

The blue and red hawks gave chase, other members following closely. Coming across a bridge, Damien stopped mid-way and jumped downwards, the ground not very far from his feet. Pushing through some citizens, he found himself in front of the blue hawk, his smile ever so venomous. The hound hero quickly turned around, the chase still on. Ahead of him was a gray hawk, arms outstretched to grab hold of him but Damien slid under his legs.

"See ya later, hawk eye." Damien mocked as his feet carried him forwards from the danger but he didn't expect to meet the red hawk once again.

Unleashing a barrage of bullets, the hawk aimed at Damien who's only option was to keep running. The bullets missed their mark, bits of rock and gravel flying upwards as the hound outran the bullets. It was almost too easy for the dog until the blue hawk came from out of nowhere again, tackling the young one to the ground. Back to the floor and the hawk holding him down, Damien used his legs to counter the hold, the blue hawk flying over.

Using the bit of momentum he had gained, Damien ran to the gray hawk once again before kicking upwards, Damien's body leaving the ground completely as he walked on the hawk's torso and face. Ending off the combo, Damien flew overhead, grasping his opponent by his temple. With all his might, Damien threw the gangster over, his body impacting with a tree, sickening cracks echoing meaning that some bones had broke.

Okay, that takes care of the bunch, now where's the head honcho of this taco stand?

"DIE!!!" Bullets rained down from above as the red hawk loomed over the young one, Damien unable to dodge in time. Each bullet that hit dug into his flesh, blood splurging out like a thunderstorm, the grass now a crimson color. The hound fell down to his knees and one last shot rang out, thus ending Damien for good.

"Good riddance, now I can--" The red hawk's words trailed off as Damien's body began to rise from the ground, almost like he was going to Heaven through a beacon of light but that wasn't the case.

All of a sudden, a black and purple aura began to shroud the hound, his body being enveloped by the black blanket. The hawk gangster couldn't help but tremble in fear, although he didn't have any idea what was going on. The purple hue began to shine ever so brightly, the moon just catching the fear of the moment so perfectly. With a small thud, Damien fell back to the floor but he looked completely different than he had been before.

"What the hell are you?!" the red one exclaimed, falling to the floor in fear of his fate.

Damien was now a black wolf like creature with purple replacing his dirty blonde fur. His hair was still messy but with purple highlights. His claws had increased in size, a purple hue to them. Damien's fangs had become whiter and more sharp than a knife. The tattoo on his back has suddenly become white and his eyes were a dark violet.

Nothing else had changed, well except his personality as well. Taking one huge step forward, Damien let out an unnatural roar, the red hawk's feathers blowing backwards from the extreme force. Once the roar died out, the new Damien muttered one word...

"Nightshade..."

"What the hell's a Nightshade?" the red hawk would never get an answer as the so-called Nightshade plunged his whole claw into his stomach, guts and blood spurting out so gruesomely.

The wolf licked the blood off his claws as if it were a hot chocolate fudge sundae. The red hawk's body sitting off at the side, just leaning on a tree with his broken boned comrade who doubtfully would fight or steal another day. A shot rang out, Nightshade turning to see five G.U.N soldiers with minor 9 millimeter pistols in their hands.

"Drop any weapons and put your hands up...whatever you are, you thing." one G.U.N soldier commanded as Nightshade smirked devilishly.

"Yes, more blood to drink! Give me your blood!!!" Nightshade charged towards them, each step he took made the soldiers tremble, their knees going weak from just the presence of this monster.

One soldier began to shoot rapidly at the wolf, not one shot affected the beast whatsoever. He yawned to digress his boredom before grinning. Dashing forward at high speeds, Nightshade slashed one of the soldiers' chest, a large gash appearing where he hit and the soldier instantly died. Another soldier came, using his gun to try and choke the monster but the black hound flipped him over immediately, smashing his foot into the soldier's face, instantly crushing his skull.

Two more came at him but this monster was just too prepared for anything. Putting his hands together, the black beast ejected an array of black and purple flames that burnt through the soldiers' bulletproof armor, their faces showing an expression of shock and agony.

"And then there was one...time to die." Nightshade grinned with joy as his feast was upon him, his fangs already drenched in crimson and just begging for more.

The captain, the one who was remaining, wasn't going to die without a fight, he shot three rounds at Nightshade's knee, the beast temporarily in pain as he licked the blood coming from his knee. This allowed the captain to bash him over the head with a giant tree branch only to his amazement not only did the branch snap on contact but his knee wound was completely gone also.

What more tricks could the monster still have in store? Nightshade would answer that question as he dashed over to the captain, jumping over him for what seemed to be no reason until he wrapped his tree trunk arms around him. Jumping upwards, the beast tilted his body to make the duo upside down.

Letting gravity take over from that point, the duo crashed into the ground, a crater forming in their wake, Nightshade escaping the move without any recoil damage. To finish off his prey, the black beast stabbed his claw into the human's back, taking it out to lick the blood that he so rightfully earned.

My senses and powers are increasing with the more blood I drink?...or do I just naturally know all of this? I've never even been in this form ever. I knew I had strange powers but this just tops it off.

All of a sudden, a group of helicopters, tanks and standard G.U.N sentry drones made their way to the scene, Nightshade still unaware of their presence until one spoke.

"Stand down monster or we'll have to use brute force which I doubt you'd like to see us do." a soldier demanded from high above the park but this wasn't going to go as they had planned.

"Try me!" The reply of Nightshade's was most certainly threatening and stupid so they did what any other person in their position would do.

"FIRE!!!" Three missiles were fired, their target not trying to do anything to dodge or block the attack. The missiles struck, smoke scattering through the area as the soldiers awaited their fate. When all was said and done, Nightshade wasn't there anymore so the soldiers began to cheer and celebrate.

That was until Nightshade had become clear in their vision, the beast jumping towards a tank. Once the hound landed on the tank, he smashed his fist directly into the cannon, the end result being the tank's demise. The explosion was a mix of red and orange like a sunset, a deadly one anyway.

The two helicopters and two tanks began to retreat leaving the sentry drones on their own. The wolf ended them quickly with a swift onslaught of Nightshade Claws, scraps of metal taking their place. Intent on killing the group, Nightshade chased after them, easily catching up with the two tanks.

"Here's Johnny!!" Nightshade screamed, automatically grabbing the first tank he saw.

Spinning around in place for what seemed to be at least thirty seconds, the hound threw the massive vehicle at one of the helicopters, hitting the rotor as the flying machine crashed into a building, bricks that were moved in the crash hitting citizens on the ground.

"At least make this a challenge guys!!"

Grabbing the next tank, the hound opened the latch on the tank and took out the two soldiers inside before slicing them into individual body parts. But there was the problem with the final helicopter which was making its way out of the city. The hound had thought of a risky but effective idea.

Raising the cannon attached to the tank, Nightshade took a few steps back before dashing forward at top speed. Using the cannon as a small boost, Nightshade jumped upwards towards the helicopter with his final idea coming into play. In his hand was a ball of condensed dark chaos energy, the sphere a black and purple color.

Time to die!!!, it screamed through the monster's mind like a tape recorder. Shooting his arm forward, the ball of energy made contact with the flying vehicle directly.

"Dark…Repulsion!!!" the ball then erupting into a dome of violet energy spreading about 40 meters in the surrounding area as citizens looked on to see the sight before their very eyes.

In a few seconds after contact, the dome dispersed and Nightshade was in the air, unconscious. His body returned into the regular Damien while flying downwards to his death. The only thing that was between Damien and death now was the space between him and the ground of course.

Nightshade...

To be continued...
