DTSGAEA: Chaotic Rebirth
Chapter 1. Hope or Nightmare? An amnesiac's dilemma
The Netherworlds, countless dimensions and plains that are home to demons and their rulers the tyrannical Overlords. These are place are wild, deadly and usually without law. Countless tales of demons, humans and angels alike joining together to reach their goals or to claim rule of the Netherworld they live in. Many of these stories exist and have become legend, but this story is very different from those. It begins in a simple house in a simple town that is caught between armies seeking the coveted title of Overlord and the journey of a young man seeking his past and destiny.
~~Arcane Town, the Netherworld~~
Arcane Town, a small, peaceful settlement in a netherworld racked with war. In a house that was laid at the foot of a hill in the western part of town, a mother was performing a ritual that would hopefully secure her future and the future of the Netherworld. Inside the home's basement, a woman was busy preparing for her ritual. The woman had short violet hair that hung just past her pointed ears. Her eyes were a deep wine red. She wore a black dress that had white ribbons on her shoulders and a large pink bow in the back. Draped over her was a white sash that had arcane symbols inlayed in it. This woman was one of the town's top witches and was in charge of keeping up the barrier on her side of town so raiders won't attack them. The only one who stood above her was the town's mayor, a powerful witch that was said to have been an offspring of an overlord. But right now she was getting ready for a special ritual. "Let see," the woman said. "Tear of a vampire, blood of a dragon, claw of a gargoyle, blood of a fallen angel, and beak of a prinny. That should do. They should provide enough energy for the eye to regain enough life. And thankfully the last thing I needed landed at my doorstep earlier today." Turning towards a covered table, a human like outline could be seen. The woman's eyes held sadness in them as she finished her statement, "A human about to pass on."
Before she could have her depression rise even more, the door that connected the rest of the house to the basement opened. "Mom? Are you down here?" a young girlish voice called out. The woman turned to the top of the stairs and said loudly, "Down here sweetie." With that, a teenage girl descended the stair case walked over to her mother. The girl had long dark pink hair that was tied into a ponytail. Her eyes were a piercing ruby that reminded her mother of her father. Her ears were pointed like her mother, but she also had a pair of bat like wings and a blue gem on her forehead. She had a small purple and white striped shirt that left her midriff and parts of her arms that were below the shoulders exposed. Over it was an opened white vest that had pink trim. Around her waist hung a purple skirt that went to half way between her hips and knees. Her legs were covered by stockings that had the same striping as her shirt. On her feet was a pair of flat shoes as she did not care for heels. Finally, on her arms she wore a pair of long white gloves that stop just past her elbows that had pink hearts outlined with purple on the back of her hands. In her hand was a staff that had a wooden shaft and the head was a large ruby. This was the witch's daughter. The witch gave her young girl a small smile and asked, "How are you today, Espera?" The girl, Espera, sighed and said plainly, "The same as always, just mostly studying spells and not having friends." The woman frowned and asked, "Why is that dear? It's hard to believe that a beautiful young girl like you can't make a single friend." "Well most aren't the daughter of Guarding Witch Hecate. That alone makes it hard to approach anyone" Espera said sadly. Hecate frowned and truly felt sympathy for her daughter. Espera seeing the stuff her mother gathered, asked, "So Mom, what are you doing?" Hecate smiled proudly and proclaimed loudly to her daughter, "Espera, I your humble mother, am going to create the perfect tool that will allow you and only you to become the next Overlord!" Espera hearing this stomped her foot and yelled, "Mom! I already told I don't want to be Overlord! It's not worth it!" Hecate sighed and gave her daughter an apologetic look, "I'm sorry dear, but it's too late to back out now."
Hecate walked over to the table and ripped off the sheets. Under it was the body of a young man that was wrapped with bandages that only left his torso uncovered. Espera was shocked to see the body of a human underneath that clothe. "Mom you can be serious!" Espera pleaded with her mother as she was about to perform a dangerous ritual. "I'm sorry dear, but it has to be done." Hecate, steeling herself, turned towards a large magic circle that held all the ingredients in it. In the center of the circle was a large eye that had a strange iris that was shaped like a yin yang symbol but in red and blue. Hecate focused herself and began the ritual, "Spirits from beyond, hear my voice. I summon the soul of the Beast of Chaos, come forth and bond with the fleeting soul of this mortal. Be bound to this world again." With the incantation finished, the circle exploded with bright purple light as it blinded the two witches. As this went on they heard a loud scream, "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" And as soon as it began, the light faded. Regaining their senses, Hecate and Espera saw that the circle, the ingredients, and the eye were gone. "What the hell?" a horse voice asked. Surprised, the mother and daughter turned and saw the young man sitting up with most of his bandages ripped off. But he was different from before, for he could no longer be called human. His hair was a bright blond that was styled in spikes. One hung over his face and reached his nose. Behind that was a row of five spiky lochs that looked like small curved horns. And finally at the back of his head were three long spikes that defied gravity. His eyes were also strange, for his left one was a shining ocean blue and his right was a crimson red like that of most demons. But the strangest parts of his body were his lower arms and legs. His lower arms were now covered with black scales on the top and tough gray skin on the bottom. Near the elbow were four layered frill like protrusions that were lined with gold like scales. His lower legs were covered in similar scales with his hands and feet ending in sharp claws. The young man finally gained enough of his senses to find out about the state his body was in. "What is this? Is this my body?" he gaze then settled on Hecate and Espera. "Who are you? Did you do this to me!?" He then stopped as he only could remember up to waking up to this nightmare. "I…I don't even remember who I am." He said shacking with fear. "Oh my, the soul bonding appears to have erased both the memories of the human and the Beast of Chaos" Hecate said feeling a small amount of guilt. "Look can you just give me some clothes then tell me what is going on here" the youth said with both fear and anger.
~~Later~~
After leaving the basement and getting their new guest a set of clothes, Hecate and Espera waited patiently in the kitchen for him to finish dressing. Espera was deep in thought. She mind was racing from all the information that now clustered inside of it. The poor youth was about her age, if not at least a couple of years older. Now he was an empty shell that her mother created all because of an unobtainable dream. 'Mom, why can't you let go? It's no use caring on a dead man's dream.' Hearing loud footsteps, Espera was snapped out of her thoughts and she saw the mysterious young man now clothed. He wore a black vest with gold trimming that would barely cover his chest if it was closed. Around his neck was a deep red riding cloak that had the appearance of a torn cape. He wore baggy white pants that stopped just past his knees. Keeping the pants in place was a thick brown belt that had a golden buckle. Attacked to the belt was a torn piece of clothe with the same colors as his vest that only covered his left pant leg and the back of the right one. Finally on his feet he wore what looked like a combination of boots and sandals that left his clawed toes exposed. She could tell that it fitted him nicely, but she looked away with a slight blush when she caught herself looking at his chest.
"So you found my body, decide to use it for a dangerous ritual and now want me to be a weapon for your daughter to use to become ruler of the Netherworld" the still unnamed youth stated. Hecate nodded, confirming what he had just said. "Now because of it I have no memories, I can't remember my own name. So see yea!" the youth got up and left the house. He was confused by where he was, but he soon found a road that left out of the village. "Hey! Where do you think you're going?" yelled a familiar voice. Turning around, the nameless youth saw Espera standing behind him panting. Catching her breath, Espera raised her head and gave him a glare. "If you are thinking of leaving town then you can forget it!" The nameless teen returned her glare and said, "And why should I listen to you, small boobs?" At this, Espera's face turned red with fury and yelled, "My boobs aren't small! I'm a c-cup!" Shaking his head, the youth responded with, "So why can't I leave?" Sighing, Espera leveled her temper and said calmly, "Because you would be walking into a war zone." This surprised the amnesiac as he responded with, "A war zone?" Espera shook her head affirmatively. "Yes, right now multiple groups under the leader ship of war lords are fighting with each other and the current Overlord to claim the title. Arcane Town is one of the last safe places in the Netherworld. If you leave you will die." The nameless lad gave her a questioning look and asked, "How do you know this?" Before she could answer an explosion knocked them off their feet. The town's people leapt into action and took defensive positions. Hecate ran to where the two were and stood in front of them. Raising her hands, Hecate cast her part of the barrier spell that has defended the town for years. Outside the almost invisible shield, an army could be seen. Many demons made up the troops, but most were prinnies, brawlers, thieves, lanterns, warriors, and faeries. The more powerful troops were gargoyles and zombies. Leading the group was a large, mostly bald, tan skin, humanoid demon. The hair that he did have on his head was bright green and tied into a pony tail/mullet hybrid that reached his feet. He wore nothing on his upper body except a large skull shaped shoulder pad. He wore large, baggy black pants that had armor on the hip and knee. His feet had four large toes that had hooked claws. His eyes were pupil less and were a brick red. He smiled revealing his sharp, shark like teeth. In his large hand he carried a large sword that had a four foot blade that had a silver edge and a black center. The guard was a red and blue yin yang symbol with black bird like wings for the guard arms. The handle was two feet in length and was wrapped with white clothe and the pommel was a large arrow like shape. The leader of the army yelled loudly so all could hear him, "Ahahahahah, hear me Arcane Town. I warlord Valk, have come to claim this town as my own. It is fitting because I was once part of your 'great' hero, Zeran. My rule is also confirmed by my wielding of the legendary chaos fragment sword, Zero Scale!" with that he raised the sword into the air.
Hecate's face formed into a visage of pure anger and fury, "How dare you use my husband's name!" Valk turned his head towards the angry woman and said evilly, "Aw Hecate, this is where you've been hiding all along." Looking at her and Espera lustfully, Valk licked his lips with his long tongue and said, "I might have just the use for you and your spawn." This statement pissed the youth off. Getting to his feet, the amnesiac walked forward and yelled to the demon, "Shut your damn mouth you asshole! I'm not gonna stand here and let you boos everyone around! It doesn't matter how powerful you are or how big your army is! I'm gonna take you down!" At this Valk laughed and gave the youth a closer inspection. Valk smiled and said, "Well you are stupid one aren't you? Your little speech and your clothes make you look like some ghost of Zeran. Ha, you are probably as weak as him. So tell me boy, what is your name?" The youth lowered his head. "My name" he began. He felt something in the back of his mind try to come forth. After some resistance it did and a name sprang forth. Raising his head, the youth glared at Valk and yelled proudly, "My name… is Romeo!"
(Romeo battle theme; You will know our names by ACE+ begin)
With that, Romeo charge forward at extreme speeds, making him almost invisible to everyone and after leaving the barrier punched a prinny back into the surrounding troops causing an explosion. 'S…such speed!' Valk thought to himself. Romeo wasn't done yet as he picked up one of the prinny's dropped blade and unconsciously sent energy into it. The blade, now glowing a fiery purple, was tossed like a boomerang as Romeo yelled, "Break Boomerang!" The glowing blade then grew to the size of a helicopter's blades and cut through multiple enemies and ending with a massive chain explosion. Standing tall and firm Romeo grabbed the other blade and charged. He sent energy into his feet and blade as a new attack formed in his mind. "Sword Flash!" With that Romeo disappeared into a white streak that passed through the enemy battalion, he then reappeared and snapped his fingers and the enemy troops were sliced to bits.
Espera's eyes widened. Romeo was tearing Valk's forces apart. She was astonished by what the young fighter was doing. 'Is this… the power of an Overlord?' she thought to herself. But she was distracted by Romeo who every movement showed off his tense muscles. Catching herself, Espera turned away with a scarlet blush adorning her face. Hecate was amaze at what was happening. 'Is this Romeo or is this the Eye of Typhon fighting for him?' Hecate thought to herself. Romeo was so engrossed with the enemies in front of him that he didn't notice the ones sneaking up behind him. Espera, seeing that he was going to get skewered, acted quickly. Summoning her staff fast, Espera cast a spell. "Shield!" With that Romeo was protected and saw his attacker. Before the assailant could recover, Romeo set him flying with a roundhouse kick. Charging more energy into his hands and crossing them, Romeo prepared his next move. Espera, wanting to help out, cast a very special spell. "Brave Soul!" A gold magic circle appeared under Romeo and he felt his strength increase. "Alright," Romeo said confidently, the energy overflowing in his hands coating them in thick, liquid like purple energy. "Take this! Strike Tracers!" Swinging his arms to his sides quickly, Romeo launched multiple energy arrows that honed in and struck the enemy forces. Valk seeing his army being defeated by a punk and a witch roared with anger. "RAAAAAAHHH! You little punk! Do you not understand the power I had? Let me show you! Break Bullet!" Valk disappeared from sight before reappearing and ramming his fist into Romeo's stomach. The impact sent Romeo tumbling back towards Espera. "Romeo!" Espera yelled with concern.
"Ahahahahaha! Do you see now you fool? Do you see the power I have? This is the power needed to be Overlord! Only thoses with power like mine can be Overlord! Ahahahahahaha!" Valk laughed letting his guard down. Coughing up some blood, Romeo stood up, his eyes shadowed by his hair. Staggering, he took a step forward. Valk seeing this grew an evil smirk. "Huh, come to grovel at my feet have we? Do you see the true extend of my power?" Romeo stopped and remained silent. "Nothing to say, well then it's time to level this village! Ahahahahahaha!" The town's people started to panic. Their would be defender stood still and silent. Espera lowered her head and begun to cry. 'Why?' she thought to herself. 'Why does this always happen? First Papa, now Romeo. Why does every man that enters my life leave me?' "Your power huh?" Romeo's voice said surprising everyone. Espera whipped her head up quickly, not trusting what she had heard. Romeo snapped his head up revealing his almost glowing eyes.
(Power unleashed theme: Sorairo Days by Shoko Nakagawa begins)
"If your power is to destroy hope, THEN MINE IS THE POWER TO CREATE POSSIBLITIES!" Romeo roared as a purple magic circle with a stylized yin yang symbol in the center formed behind him. He charge, becoming barely a blur as he tore through enemy troops. He then reappeared in the air as energy formed and clustered around his hands. "Now I create the possibility of VICTORY! TAKE THIS! VICTORY METEOR!" With that a meteor of pure energy blasted downwards, sending debris and enemies flying. 'I…Im…impossible' Valk thought, fear surging through his spine. 'What is this power? It's like he's some chaotic beast! Wait… chaotic…beast!' Valk smiled realizing what was going on. "Ahahahahahahaha! I see now! Good job Hecate! You created a ritual that reincarnated the Beast of Chaos, the Hundred head Dragon Typhon as this fool! No wonder my troops are los-GAAAAHH!" Valk was interrupted from his gloating by Romeo's fist that inserted itself into his stomach. "You really are a dumb ass" Romeo said calmly removing his hand from the demon's stomach. "This power might come from something that was put inside of me, but I will make it my own! With this power I'll become Overlord and finally bring peace to this world!" Everyone was surprised by this statement but quickly snapped out of it as the town's people began to cheer. Espera smiled softly as tears of joy fell. 'Papa, your dream might be coming true after all.' Valk spat blood out of his move and said lowly, "You bastard." The evil warrior quickly shoved the young upstart back. Valk stared at the young man and stated, "No more kiddy glove, time to die!" With that, the demon pulled out a four inch long gem that was shifting colors between light red and dark blue. Romeo froze up, feeling the hauntingly familiar energy coming from the gem. "Behold" Valk stated loudly. "The Havoc Crystal! This shall give me the power I desire!"
And with that, Valk swallowed the crystal whole. And with that, bolts of blue and red energy flew from Valk's body as it under gone a disturbing transformation. His right arm bulged and grew, doubling in size and mass. Large spikes grew from his left shoulder as a third eye sprouted from the center of the warlord's forehead. His eyes were now pitch black and a malicious smile graced his lips. "Now," Valk said in a warped voice. "You, DIE!" and with a roar, the mutated demon slammed his enlarged fist into the young fighter. Romeo tumbled before crashing back into Espera, sending them both into the ground. The warped demon smiled wickedly as he stopped and reached for the dropped sword. But as his hand reached the blade, it fired a pulse of bright purple energy and sent the mutated demon flying. Seeing this Romeo began to laugh, "Hehehe, guess that sword doesn't like you." His demeanor then changed to serious, "Valk, I will defeat. Not just for me but for all that have suffered under you!"
Valk roared in defiance before firing a large unstable beam from his mouth. Romeo stood there calmly, before raising his left hand and shouting as it and his left eye glowed blue, "Reflector Shade!" Before him, a large magic seal appear. It possessed two blue rings with ancient arcane writing between them and a blue winged cross in the center. The beam collided with the seal and miraculously formed into a bright purple ball, before firing back at Valk. "A holy left hand!" Hecate stated with surprise. The warped warlord staggered backwards, the reflected blast weakening him considerably. Romeo then raised his right hand before pulling it back, readying to throw a punch. His hand and right eye glowed red. "Fallen Magnum!" And before him a red seal similar to the blue one appeared. But instead of a cross, a red upside down star was in the center. He then punched the seal releasing a large fist made of red energy with a red whirlwind around it. "The demonic right!" Hecate gasped. 'He truly is tapping into the Beast of Chaos's power!' The energy fist collided with Valk and the force broke many of his teeth and the spikes on his shoulder.
Not finish yet, Romeo charged forward and grabbed Zero Scale. He then assaulted Valk with a flurry of slashes, kicks and punches, injuring the vile demon even more. To finish his assault, Romeo drove his knee straight into Vlak's chin, sending the warlord reeling. "Now, to finish this!" Romeo yelled. His hand once again glowed their respective red and blue. "Hell and Heaven!" Romeo then slowly brought the glowing hands together, creating a wave of purple energy that froze Valk in his tracts. "VITOS!" with that roar, Romeo sailed forward and shoved his fists into the warlords chest. "RRAAAAAHHHH!" and with a massive heave, he ripped the crystal from Valk's body and crushed it in his hands. The shards floated around him for a second, before turning purple and flowing into Romeo. For a few seconds, the young warrior was obscured by a bright purple flash. Then the light dissipated and Romeo was revealed to the crowd, who had expressions of shock. "Is there something on my face?" Romeo asked confused. Espera stared at him with a neutral face and said, "You have a tail." "Eehh?" Romeo said even more confused than before.
That is, until he looked down and saw his new appendage. "EEEEEEHHHH!?" Romeo could only babble incoherently at his tail. Like his lower arms and legs, his new tail had black scales on the top and tough grey skin on the bottom. On it was a row of golden inch long spikes that ran down the middle of the tail. Beside it was a pair of golden rows of bony bumps. At the tip was four claw like curved spikes that looked like he could grab people with. "How the fuck did I get this!?" Romeo yelled out loud.
~~Later~~
Romeo was now standing at the town's gate, a travel sack slung over his shoulder and Zero Scale sheathed on his back. "Thanks for everything. I hope we can meet again someday." Romeo said politely to the townspeople. "It's no problem. We are happy to help you start your journey" Hecate said with an honest smile. She was truly glad that Romeo was indeed keeping his promise. And with it, hope and a better tomorrow could return to the Netherworld at last. And with that, the young rebel walked off waving the good people of Arcane Town goodbye. 'Probably for the best, the deserve the all the peace they can get.' Romeo thought with a sad smile. "YOU DUMBASS!" a voice full of feminine fury roared. Before he could react, the back of Romeo skull was hit by two small feet with a force that sent him tumbling into the ground. "What hit me?" Romeo asked through gritted teeth. Getting to his feet, Romeo saw Espera standing across from him, giving of a glare that could kill small animals. "Espera? What are you doing here?" Romeo asked, surprised written all over his face. "What do you think I'm doing here you moron! I'm going to help you become Overlord." "Why?" Romeo asked, still confused. "Because, I'm not gonna let you ruin my father's memory! I'm gonna make you the greatest Overlord ever!" She yelled, grabbing his hand. "Now let's go!" Unknown to Romeo, Espera's face a deep cherry color from the contact. 'It's not like I like him, he just needs my help' Espera rationalized.
