Prologue
The sky was dark, with lightning forking their way towards the ground. A single figure stood tall on a cliff, overseeing the landscape. The figure had on a huge, black cloak, and it billowed with the wind. The dark sky casted an eery shadow over the land. 10 feet behind the figure was a huge boulder that was right next to the path of the cliff. There behind the boulder was a quaking a figure. A spy.
The spy had on a tattered, green shirt and pants from the climb to the cliff. Cuts and bruises were visible on the spy's ripped clothes and his hair was in disarray. The spy was sent to "spy" on the figure, and confirm if it was "The One". Okay, I found him, he's there, ALIVE, so I better get back to Lord Liu Bei and tell him the news. The spy peered over the boulder once more, only to see no one at the tip of the cliff. The spy went wide-eyed, and abruptly sat down, getting hyperventilated. What just happened? He was just there a moment ago...maybe he suicided?
The spy took a look one more time, and as he did so, the hairs on the back of his neck stood tall. The spy sensed a dark presence...right...behind him. The spy just sat there, being still, hoping the figure didn't see him. Too late for that. "I see you, human." The voice sounded as if two souls were embodied in one body. The spy turned quickly and yelled out, "Noooo!!"
Shwink!
The figure sliced the spy's torso in half, his upper body slowly falling off the lower body. Blood was spilled on the ground, and the look on the spy's face showed suprise and horror. The figure had a black scythe that had a blue and red jewel placed in socket nodes. The scythe's handle was 8 feet long, and the blade was 5 feet long. The blood from the spy could be seen on the blade, shining from the flash of lightning.
"Hehehe, humans are so...frail and weak." The figure chuckled, and looked out towards the dark sky. His one single, red eye glowed brightly by the flashing lightning. His other eye was closed, with a scar that streaked through it. "Hm, hm, hm, I will have my revenge against them. Shu, Wu, Wei, and the Japanese Eras. I will have my revenge against them all!" The figure stamped his scythe's end onto the ground hard, creating an erupting wave of darkness to erode the ground a little. "It was fun while it lasted. I think it should be time to bring in a little more... variety into the battle."
Raising his arms and his palms wide open, the figure released a huge, dark ball of energy into the sky. The energy ball suddenly widened, creating somewhat of a vortex. The vortex started to swirl slowly, but in time, the vortex swirled like a hurricane. "It's time to bring in...a new world to this war!! Hahahahaha!!" The figure cackled loudly, his voice booming through the air.
