Soul Eater: Dark Lords

Chapter I:

The Second Coming of Nothing

Occultus: "Impossible! How can Sassu Wannu have been resurrected?"

Paganovich: "Hell if I know my brother."

Occultus: "This all seems very strange..."

Maxine: "I will examine more. Report to Mabaa of all of this."

Paganovich: "Will do Doc."

They both walked down the hallway of the Witch's Lair, wondering about the resurrection of an ancient christian deity.

Paganovich: "So how are we going to kill him?"

Occultus: "I do not think we can, most illogical..."

Paganovich: "To heaven with your logic, we will find a way."

Occultus: "Let's just go my friend."

They hesitated to walk to Mabaa's room wondering what she would say.

Mabaa: "What has happened my son?"

Paganovich: "Sassu Wannu, the Black Wizards' great enemy has been resurrected, and I may have the answer on who could have done such a thing."

Mabaa: "And who is that my dear?"

Paganovich: "...Enoch."

She shuttered at the sound of the name.

Occultus: "Are you sure?"

Paganovich: "Extremely."

Occultus: "And how?"

Paganovich: "Always with the questions. Well for one the only people in the world that have healing magic that strong are the White Wizards. And there's also only 1 person that could have brought a deity back to life."

Occultus: "That being Enoch."

Paganovich: "Precisely."

Mabaa: "So what will you boys be doing?"

Paganovich: "I have all the intel on the white wizards stored away in my room. But me and Occultus can't take this on alone, we will need the assistance of more Black Wizards."

Occultus: "Paga. What do you know?"

Paganovich: "Time to explain a lot. Sassu Wannu has been resurrected. Enoch is what we would call a, 'Kantus' if you will. Goliath, an Archmage is still alive. Necromessiah is known to be missing in action, possibly somewhere in the Ukraine, Chernobyl to be exact. Crucifix is also alive and I know that he is in Spain. Khristos is captured, we have him tortured daily. Hordus, we killed him yesterday."

Occultus: "And who would be able to assist us?"

Paganovich: "The original Black Wizard and maybe Corpsegrinder if we can find him. He's missing in action as well. I think he is somewhere in Iraq."

Occultus: "Well I say we should go find Corpsegrinder and then call upon our other allies."

Mabaa: "Go then, find this Black Wizard."

Paganovich: "That is our first task."

Occultus: "Should we head out now?"

Paganovich: "Indeed."

Mabaa: "Good luck, and take this"

She handed her son a ring made of gnarled thorns adorned with a yellow topaz.

Paganovich: "What is this?"

Mabaa: "It is basically a little tracking device. 1, so you'll always have my presence and 2, because if you ever get captured I can send some of my witches to go find you."

Paganovich: "That's... actually nice of you mother."

Mabaa: "Go my son. To Mega Therion."

Paganovich: "To Mega Therion."

Occultus and Paganovich ran off, determined to accomplish their sacred goal. They crossed through South America, took a submarine over the Atlantic and crossed the Sahara Desert. Finally, they reached the place they have set forth.

Paganovich: "Behold, Iraq."

Occultus: "Stereotypical Arabic village at the most."

Paganovich: "I have an idea on who can aid us."

Occultus: "Who?" he asked shyly.

Paganovich: "The Yezidis."

Occultus: "What?" he said while squinting his eyes.

Paganovich: "They're Satanists."

Occultus: "Well maybe they have some intel we can use."

Paganovich: "To heaven with that intel bitch!"

Occultus: "That's not what your mom said."

Paganovich: "Yeah, I see her every day smart one."

Occultus: "Right, right."

Paganovich slowly knocked on the door of a Yezidi home.

Mufamir: "Who are you?" he said with a raspy voice.

Paganovich: "In Sorte Diaboli."

Mufamir: "Come in my friend."

Paganovich: "We have much to discuss old friend."

Mufamir: "It has certainly been to long."

Occultus: "And who exactly are these people?"

Paganovich: "Avid Satanists and Luciferians."

Occultus: "Are you sure they'll help us?"

Mufamir: "Why wouldn't we? Melek! Get these 2 men some food!"

Melek: "I'm cooking as fast as I can!"

Mufamir: "That obviously isn't fast enough!"

The angered Yezidi Mufamir threw a butcher's knife at the young Iraqi, only missing him by less than an inch.

Melek: His eyes widened. "Unholy shit!"

Mufamir: "That's what I thought!"

Paganovich: "On second thought I'm not hungry anymore."

Occultus: "...I lost my appetite."

Mufamir: "Come on! It's cow rib stew!"

Paganovich: His stomach growled. "Well that sounds really good and I am pretty damn hungry."

Occultus: "So am I, but I don't want a knife thrown at me.

Mufamir: "And meet my good friend, she is a Gorgon."

Paganovich: "Who might that be?"

Mufamir: "My friend Shaula Gorgon, the 3rd of the sisters."

At that instant she walked passed a door wearing a bright blue dress.

Paganovich: "Um... how are you?" he said with a hint of nervousness.

Shaula: "Fine, and yourself?"

Paganovich: "Great actually. Other than being hunted by conservatives I'm all good."

Shaula: "You're funny wizard boy, I like that."

Paganovich: He gulped and mustered the courage to say, "Would you like to dance?"

Shaula: She smiled brightly and answered, "Yes, I would."

Suddenly the pair started doing the tango in the middle of the living room, eventually they took themselves outside still continuing their dance. Paganovich put a rose in his mouth and continued dancing with the witch. She ended with jumping from him and doing the splits.

Paganovich: "You have moves girl."

Shaula: "As yourself. Were did you learn to dance?"

Paganovich: "Just something I picked up in college a long time ago."

The pair walked back into the house of Mufamir.

Occultus: "Bro, you should totally date her."

Paganovich: "Naaaaw, I'm old enough to be her grandfather."

Shaula: "I'm about 500 years old."

Paganovich: "And I'm about 2500." he said with a smirk.

Shaula: "Well do you want to date me?"

Paganovich: "Very much so."

Occultus: "Told you that you should date her."

Paganovich: "Shut it."

Shaula: "Well then let's date."

Paganovich: "Fine."

Shaula: "Good!"

Almost out of nowhere the new couple found themselves making out on the sofa of Mufamir.

Mufamir: "Kids, what can you do..."

Melek: "They should not be doing that."

Mufamir: "Well at least they can Mr. 'I'm to unpopular to get any tail'."

Melek: "But I am too-" he was interrupted.

Mufamir: "With that attitude you will never succeed."

Melek: "But I don't want to suck a seed."

Occultus: "That's not what he... never mind."

Mufamir: "If you set a course for the moon, but merely follow the stars. Then you will miss that which you have set forth."

Occultus: "Damn... that's deep."

Mufamir: "Really? I got that from a fortune cookie."

Paganovich: "Of course he did."

Shaula: "Come on wizard boy, how about we go up to my room?"

Paganovich: His eyes grew even wider and he started the sweat. "Um... sure."

Occultus: "One day and they're already making love."

-45 minutes later-

Mufamir: "I think it's time for them to come out."

-1 hour later-

Melek: "Any day now!"

They both walk down the stairs, their clothes ravaged.

Paganovich: "Well that was fun."

Shaula: "Want to date?"

Paganovich: "Hell yeah."

Shaula: "Good!" she smiled again.

It was at that moment Paganovich knew he was going to have a good relationship with her.

Mufamir: "Do you want our intel or not?"

Occultus: "Give it to us."

Paganovich: "Do you know the location of Corpsegrinder?"

Mufamir handed Occultus the intel then looked at Paganovich.

Melek: "He's in Saudi Arabia."

Mufamir: "I was just about to say that."

Melek: "Too late."

Occultus: "Stop with you're bickering, we're here for a reason."

Paganovich: "Well I guess it's us 3 now."

Shaula: "I like it that way."

Occultus: "If you have sex in my tent I will kill you."

Paganovich: "I wasn't going to."

Occultus: "You better not."

Melek: "Get packing, you 3 are going to Saudi Arabia."

Occultus: "Then we have no time to waste."
