Akame Ga Kill! The Azure Blades

This is based off of my old Akame Ga Kill: The Azure Blades RP forum, it will be a SYOC story, in a way. Canon characters will feature, but it will mainly revolve an OC cast. Will deviate from canon at some point. Signup sheet is at the bottom after the conclusion of this chapter, in the post-chapter notes.

Official parings may be WaveXKurome, NajendaXLubbock and possibly a TatsumiXEsdeathXMine triangle. OC pairings will potentially be involved as well. We'll have to see.

Disclaimer: The Akame Ga Kill Manga was written by Takahiro, Makoto Uezu wrote the anime and it was published by Square Enix.

Prologue: Azure Blade

It was a typical day in the Capital, one would hardly notice the corruption in the Capital at first glance. a young brunette man with a brown tunic and pants and a blue-haired young woman with a green shirt with pants, leather brown gloves and boots had just approached a lightly guarded villa.

"Lieutenant Jerik's too arrogant" the brunette shrugged"Its almost too easy."

"It might be a trap, but we'll see" the bluenette grinned, climbing a nearby tree to get a vantage point on the window of Jerik's room, her Bow Teigu, Sonic Wind Fire at the ready. Caeden, her ally, headed confidently to the front door.

'Here goes nothing' Caeden drew his twin blades and struck down the guards protecting the entrance.

"Hey!" A set of three guardsmen rushed at the brunette Assassin. Caeden dodged their attacks and struck them down before heading in. Several more guards saw him and rushed to evacuate the staff.

'No bigigie, I have no beef with the staff members of this manse' he thought, heading upstairs. Five more guards drew their blades and charged. Caeden jumped back and swung, cutting down a couple guards and parrying an attack from another guard, kicking him back and killing him with a slash across the chest.

"Rebel Scum!" bellowed the Captain of the mansion's guards, charging at him with a few swings of a battle axe. Caeden ducked and weaved around the attacks, putting away his dual blades and taking out a purple lance Teigu.

"You think you can beat me with that, boy?" sneered the guard captain.

Caeden focused his inner energy onto the Teigu"Violet Flash!" He jabbed repeatedly at the man, catching him by surprise and killing him with that last thrust. The guard captain collapsed.

"What's going on out there?" A nearby door opened, and Jerik, an auburn-haired man exited"Hm? The heck are you?"

"Caeden Wren, the Violet Flash of the Azure Blades. Nice knowing you" Caeden grinned. He killed the remaining guard before he could flee the scene.

Jerik drew a longsword and swung at Caeden"Die Rebel Scumbag!"

Caeden narrowly avoided the longsword, getting a small scratch. Caeden darted to the man's side and jabbed at his rib. Jerik stumbled, but swung horizontally and vertically at the same time. Caeden dodged both attacks and retaliated with a horizontal slice and a thrust, staggering Jerik.

"An Imperial Arm? Impressive" Jerik grunted"But its the end of the line" He stabbed at Caeden, driving him back. Caeden gasped, his enhanced speed was beginning to wear off, but he assumed a stance and darted forward to stab at Jerik, striking him in the chest and mortally wounding him.

"Heh... I doesn't matter how many nobles and generals you kill" Jerik grimaced"The Revolution cannot... Possibly win..."

"Never know" Caeden said, starting to walk away.

Jerik grimaced one more time as he let go of his life. Outside the window to his room, the bluenette had climbed down from her vantage point. The remaining guards were still evacuating the servants.

The blue-haired young woman met up with Caeden"Job's done, right?"

Caeden nodded as he took a breath and put away Violet Flash"Jerik was kind of a pushover, but at least he won't be troubling anymore innocents with his insane perverted and greedy antics. Though I gotta say, the corruption never seems to lessen, no matter how many jobs we pull off."

The bluenette nodded"Yeah. But Captain Kenneth knew that something needed to be done when he formed the Azure Blades. Why don't you go back to base and call it day?"

Caeden nodded, then started back to the Azure Blades' headquarters"See you there, Alexa."

Alexa nodded, then strode off back for the middle quarter. Neither Azure Blade member knew that their recent actions have not gone completely unnoticed by anyone outside Jerik's home, for a carriage just happened to briefly stop not far from the path Alexa took to the marketplace to gather more info.

"How does it look?" The voice of a mysterious young man addressed his female counterpart as they rode their carriage down the street, flanked by guards along the way.

"They have definitely increased" The female replied"Violet Flash, from what I can guess based on the direction it took, Violet Flash has claimed another victim in the name of the Revolutionary Army. Black Kaiser is stationary, and I sensed Divine Avenger heading to Ashe Estate. Masamune is approaching the marketplace near Sonic Wind Fire. Its quite a gathering of Imperial Arms in select places."

The man nodded"The Azure Blades... And the Silver Fangs, both the elite amongst their factions... How this plays out is all, ultimately up to them. Shall we go?" The carriage continued on towards the home of the mysterious young man and his partner.

At the marketplace, Alexa was about to get information when she caught sight of footsteps, a young red-headed man and a couple of guards were also at the market along with a brunette young woman.

"Hm?" Alexa approached the pair, cautiously.

One of the guards heard her and addressed the man he was protecting"Lord Fen."

The young red-headed man turned"Ah, how unexpected." He had a regal white tunic with pants and a brown jacket. A sword with a blue blade was sheathed at his side"And you are?"

"Alexa Titania" Alexa smiled"And you? You don't see many Nobles coming here."

The red-head nodded"You are perceptive. I am Alistair Fen, head o House Fen to be exact. My family has very close ties with House Whiteshore, House Terrence and House Ashe."

"Interesting" Alexa smiled"And your companions?"

"Hibari, pleased to meet you. These two are only guards" Hibari spoke"I am a humble agent of Lord Fen, he and Lady Whiteshore are in the midst of a top secret operation, impending cooperation with a certain other noble house that... Regrettably went cannibalistic for a time before its only heir put it to rights" she had a disgusted look on her face at the mention of it.

Just then, hurried footsteps could be heard as several guards came by on the lookout. A young man with brownish-red hair was evading them, he had on a greenish army uniform and bore a sword at his hip. Paying the group no mind, he began to pass.

"Where might you be going?" Alistair grabbed the fleeing man"And you are?"

"L-Luke Felton, sir. I just killed a corrupt Guard Captain and now these guys are on to me, that guy was corrupt" Luke hastily said, trying to defend himself.

"I see" Alistair shrugged"And why shouldn't I hand you to the Imperial Police?" It was time to have fun.

"Lord Fen" A guard recognized him"Thank you for your aid, this murderer was responsible for killing my captain."

Alistair nodded"I would say you're welcome, but is it true that Civil War is brewing?"

The guard shrugged"No clue. Wait, why are you stalling? You with the Revolutionary Army?"

Alistair shook his head"No, but if you do not desist, I will react accordingly."

"Why you!" The guards charged at the small group.

"Arrogant buggers" Alexa drew a dagger and stabbed a guard. Alistair drew his blade and engaged a guard that tried to attack him, while Hibari drew a katana and was dueling with two more corrupt guards.

A woman with long red hair watched the brawl from where she was buying vegetables for herself and her daughter, a sword and a Mask-type Teigu were on her person. Another young man was wandering aimlessly nearby, lost.

Alistair expertly disarmed his opponent and helped Alexa defeat hers. Hibari weaved around the two guards she was fighting and eventually defeated them with relative ease. Luke, hand on his dual blade, watched.

"Looks like I missed a party, not that I care" said the woman in a monotone voice. Her daughter came first before anything else.

"You think they'd learn" Alistair sighed, putting away his sword"The Imperial Guardsmen are getting too overzealous."

Alexa shrugged and proceeded to buy more supplies. The young man who was wandering aimlessly spotted her"Excuse me, miss. I need your help finding something."

"Yes?" Alexa turned to him"What is your name?"

The man, who had a white jacket and pants with a black shirt and tie, a black cloak with a hood covering his clothes and face, sweatdopped as he pulled out a letter"I'm Neo Kurogane, I'm looking for this place mentioned in this letter."

Alexa nodded, took the letter and read it"Hm. Okay, follow me."

"Thank you" Neo smiled, following Alexa away from the market when she was done buying.

Alistair listened, then walked with Hibari back home, escorting Luke Felton. Things were getting more interesting. The red-haired woman nearby had cleaned her blade quick and headed home after buying her vegetables, ignoring the gossip people were spreading about the recent brawl.

How's this for a first chapter? I tried to not have it start too slow. The story will have quite a bit of action with some possible romance and such on the side. Now that the story part is finished for this chapter, I want to point out again that this is a SYOC, but I will only be accepting OCs for a while. I know that I left three of the characters here unidentified, but their names will be revealed in the next chapter or so.

Please feel free to review. I know that there's been a problem recently with reviews not showing whenever someone submits them and someone else tries to read the reviews, but hopefully it will soon be fixed. So I would like OCs to be submitted by pm for now, please. I will be using quite a few of my own, of course. Oh, and Neo is Firelord's OC.
