Hey it's me, Sushi Cake2020.

Welcome to the story. I'm still in the middle of the prologue and I really hope you guys read and review the story.

And yes, all the chapters will be pretty short like this.


The streets were lit up with activity. Police were everywhere trying to keep the people calm, ambulance were trying to tend to the injured. No one was prepared for the incident that began to unfold this night. Lightning surged ahead through them looking at the now cracked sky. She had no idea what these things were or how they worked or even where they came from. They were so foreign to her, she knew that they couldn't have come from Valhalla. They were too advanced to have come from Valhalla.

She saw Noctis behind her running through all the madness. They both hoped that tonight wasn't the last night of their lives, as they ran toward the source of the action.

The scorpion was massive up close and had already started to take lives. She turned to begin telling Noctis about a course of action when she noticed nothing but light there.

"Noctis!" she yelled seeing his form no high above the beast. The guy always took on way too much, and tonight was not the night to be trying to take on more than a person could chew. He pierced it with his sword and it bleed black blood, or what was thought to be blood. He kept hammering at it as the streets began to be showered with the blood.

Except it wasn't blood. It was tissue. Lightning looked around her, her old gunblade ready for use. The blood started to move on its own and make monsters of their own from the tissue. They moved clumsily at first before gaining momentum to anything that was aorund with a pulse.

"Cie'th?" Lightning thought. She started toward them. She knew that these monsters were something else, but she didn't have much time to try and figure them out. Just try and kill them. Her gunblade became a sword and she went to work, cutting one down. It began to fizzle away and she started toward another and another.

It really sucked how quickly they came about. With half of Noctis' group and Lightning's hands tied trying to get ahold of the monsters, they didn't have much time to try and call for reinforcements. And even so, they'd probably be contending with one of the other monsters that decided to make an appearance tonight.

This was probably going to be a long night. Lightning thought looking at the scorpion swat Noctis to the ground. He quickly recovered and staggered a bit, regaining his balance. He took notice to the secondary issue Lightning was taking care of.

"What-" he began.

"No time! The thing's bleeding to death, now kill these!" Lightning screamed at him.
