Here is a series of words that puts them together.
This is more or less a pilot chapter to see if you people like it
btw i do not own Bloodborne or Akame ga kill
The Empire had deteriorated since it's dawn, abyssal fingers formed from the greed of mankind and wrapped it's grasp around the land little by little. Eventually, such things as murder and thievery were commonplace.
And that was just the lightest of sins found in the Capital, where darkness was at it's thickest.
Right now, a village not far from the Capital is the sights for some who proved to be the sickest of human beings. It burned down with every passing minute, and it's peaceful residence
A man sliced into another man with a simple sword, his eyes pure white from anger upon seeing his wife and sister violated by him.
His pupils had distorted to resemble lines that had been scraped together, and his teeth clenched harder than ever before. He was as close to beasthood as humanly possible.
Standing over that man who would defile the flesh of his family, he stomped his leg against his hand, permanently paralysing the limb.
The man brought the sword to the invader's other hand, dangerously close to the fingers.
His wife and sister were in a corner, watching as the one they had grew up with and loved become caught up in the growing unease in the people of the empire.
Their thoughts were filled with boundless gratitude to the man who protected them, even as blood sprayed onto his dirty shirt, and into his face, it was the only thing they could think of.
The joyous laughter of men, along with their endless struggle grew louder. Their loved one looked at the two of them. The look in his eyes were overridden with a sense of duty, the kind she had known since childhood, and the kind she had known only recently.
It may be the last time he would see the two, as he jumped to conclusions. He walked towards them, sword dropped, and arms open in a sad embrace.
Outside, the scene was what one would expect of a massacre in the Empire. You couldn't walk five meters without having to step over a body of the deceased.
"Wh-who is this crazy bitch!" A man part of the calamity of the small village was on his backside, hopelessly crawling away from the one who would end him. He was raggedly dressed,
"P-please, don't kill me!" The fires of the homes he had burned finally looked like a sin to him.
"I'll do anything, please!" The act of de-wilting a flower had suddenly become a crime in his head.
"ANYTHII-AAAAAAAAA!"
The his arm would never reach the dull weapon he used, as the soul left his body early, just like the rest of his raiding party.
The one who had killed him was a woman with a face so white she appeared a ghost. Her clothing had worlds between that of the one she had just killed. It was similar to that of a modern knight who served royalty. Where metal armor would be, hard leather had replaced it. A hat like that of a typical pirate captain would wear sat on her head, but it was folded up at the sides, and was remarkably smaller in size. A white feather fluttered at it's side. The garb gave her a presence of elegance that seethed in spades.
She had been here, she was the cause for most of the bloodied bodies found in the center of the village.
The woman held within her hand a sword, it's blade was like that of a katana, curving slightly when it reached it's end. She rid her weapon from the body of the man she had just killed, and returned it to it's resting place.
There was only the fires left.
The sound of a wooden door creaked open, revealing a man of whom looked much different than the ones that she had just massacred without a second thought.
There was fear in his eyes, even from before he looked at her standing amidst the fallen bodies of men.
The woman shared eyesight with him, and his fear deepened.
She turned around, leaving him and the burning village.
Grand Capital
Maria found herself in the place that she had heard to be most corrupt, the Capital.
It showed everywhere she went.
On some streets, it's sides were lined with beggars pleading to the passerby for anything they could spare, even the children were lying almost lifeless in the shade. On others, the one she was currently in, seemed cheery and lighthearted. Already, she could see why there was unease in much of the civilians.
Such a difference in districts, could only mean that this was the work of the top brass.
Unsurprisingly, there were some that crossed to the other side, seeking monetary value in those of the unaware.
"Hey there, woman, won't you stop and go out with us for a while?"
Quickly, Maria turned around.
And she found the sight of a group of men with less than gentlemanly sneers on their mouths, and less than gentlemanly leers on their eyes. Dismissing them as mere bugs, the Old Hunter turned away, until she felt one of their heavy hands on her shoulders, with a grip that was more tighter than needed.
Sighing lightly, Maria twisted back around, and pulled the hand. When a body went straight for her, Maria hit the molester with a fist that landed right in the center of his chest. A trained impact that knocked the air from him, causing him to choke on air from rushed breathing.
Looking dead into the shook eyes of the man's partners, she 'hmph'd' and returned on her path. It was bad enough getting touched by these filth, and now they had wasted some of her time.
"T-that fucking bitch! What did she do to Kuma!" From behind, the one identified as Kuma clutched his chest and was coughing profusely. A common reaction when choking.
"B-bro, hang in there!"
Lady Maria heard their footsteps long before they even thought about making them.
She lifted a bit of her Hunter cape, revealing the sheathe of her Rakuyo to the revenge-seeking men.
