As I finished my sentence I heard another crash. We looked up and watched curiously. I had a feeling this was going to happen. I had everyone here whom I had asked to come. I only needed one of them however this was so much more fun. Besides if the future went in the way which I seen I would need more just to make my life easier. I doubt I would be forgiven if I left out some of the more powerful gods.
The sky was a pure black now. We kept watch a few of the little vampires were hiding behind each other. As it swirled and thundered loudly the ground shook. What looked like a ray of light started to shine through. It was pure gold and shimmered brightly against the pitch black of the sky. As the gold started to grow in size the color started to get more and more luminescent. The gold and black mixed perfectly now. Swirling together but keeping their brilliant colors alive. The swirling mass started to flee into a shape almost man like but jackal like at the same time. With a loud noise that sounded like a cross between a jackal and man it was gone. There in it the colors place stood a jackal. Large, muscle bound with sleek black fur. Brilliant shimmering gold accents lined his body. Around his eyes coming out to a sharp point. Large ears that stood straight up. His voice was loud and again it was a cross between a very powerful yet exotic man and a jackal. "God of the Egyptian underworld, Protector and guardian of the dead, Bringer of plagues, Son to the mother and queen of all. Anubis "As he finished he had a gotten down on more of a crouch. He was growling and letting out loud noises his body started to muscle more than it was before. As he growled his armor started to fall upon him. It seemed to just appear. He quieted down and started to stand up. I heard someone's thoughts say the following. "I never understood why that man always needed to make such an entrance. " I chuckled to myself it made me smile that boy really was like me. It made me so proud. He really was awesome son.
He stood up straight and set his eyes upon the horizon. Before anything could continue he glared at the little vamps that were watching. The hall had grown at this point and was now massive. The humans would never know anything was going on, it would be too much trouble if they did. He started to stalk closer to them. As he did this I could hear loud whimpers and cries of pleading. I knew what he was doing. He wanted to look like who he was. The dead. A god. Someone to be feared. Something that was virtually unable to be killed except by myself or the king and a few others. He chuckled darkly as they moved and parted like a massive sea. Even other gods moved for this man. He was close now, his large, pure black claws were easily able to rip through the line.
I sighed inwardly I knew what he wanted. I spoke to him quietly within our own heads. Even mind readers like Eddie boy couldn't hear in on us. It was solitary and private. What we needed at times. "Kill that big burly vampire named Demetri. He's a spy and terribly boring. Make it big to please. "He gave me a wink within his head and got a dangerous look in his eye. Charging with a speed incomparable to vampires he hit. Like an entire wall running into a building it was a loud thundering crash. The vamps around him were unhurt just slightly dazed and scared. Dragging the body back to the center of the room he chuckled as he threw Demetri down. With a crash he slammed into the floor. Anubis was stalking around him. His feet were arched up at the heels, a paw that extended into an elegant and muscled leg. Gold and black claws clicked against the floor threateningly.
As he stalked he glared and watched. Chuckling loudly and darkly. The sky returned back to pure black however this time the moon was showing. However this moon was bright and gold. With another loud thundering noise it shifted. The gold moon shifted into the gold eyes of the god himself. He laughed darkly this time. The eyes up high within the sky flew to a very terrified Demetri. I heard a loud yelp and a sharp hiss as Anubis picked Demetri up by the neck. He glared at the audience and chuckled at the terrified faces. "I do adore the look of fear within your eyes. " He stalked close to a female vampire. Demetri still in his grasp being held high. He took a long sniff of the little vampire. That had to smell they did stink I will admit the true smell of a vampire was nasty to say the least. "And the smell of fear is oh so nice "
Without a warning another voice came into to the room. Speaking as if the owner was everywhere at once. This voice was Female but this voice was deadly. It sounded like death speaking. A teasing tone lined the voice. "I believe I'm the judge of that "I saw him tremor lightly, actually I seen a few of them shake at that tone. The black sky fled into a growing figure. Taller than Anubis but not as big. Female. She was tall like all of us. Her hair hung in long waves. It looked like a black river that flowed back into her body. Her outfit was unique style of dress A dark silver lined the rich black fabric. It was a ball gown style with less … Poof. Her crown was smaller than mine. It fell over part of her forehead and formed over her horns than lay atop her head. She was beautiful but hauntingly so. When she spoke her shining black teeth showed. Her eyes were black and grey with red, green and orange pupils. She stood very tall. Her face was so beautiful but as I said once before it would haunt you. She stood up straight her ashy color skin gleaming like a jewel. She started to walk over to the little vamp Anubis had smelt. He was standing straight up still holding Demetri. HE gave her a big toothy grin. With a flick of his wrist he flung Demetri up into the air. The female looked up as he did and grinned a deadly grin. Demetri stopped moving and hung in the air helplessly. Her eyes shot back to the crowed as she spoke. Her voice that same tone as before but with more malice to it. "Goddess of the Norse underworld and bringer of all death, Queen and bringer of all pain, Daughter and personal hunter for the Great mother of all, Hel "
Anubis gave a grin and stalked closer to her, I sighed and held back a smile. These two were always fighting but they had a nice ... yet strange relationship. I watched as did we all. The crowed moved back giving the two Deities more room. Hel stood up straight and perfectly tall. Her face held nothing but the promise of pain and fear. I watched her grin as she went back into a very graceful stance. Her and Anubis locked eyes. She let out a loud snarl. You could hear the torment and pain that growl would because it thundered out. I heard loud whimpers the little vamps watching.
With once jump they leapt at each other they crashed into each other. Growling and snarling loudly. Hel flipped once and grasped at Anubis's arm as she did you could see a bright yellowish green color climbing up his arm withering it away. She tore as it turned into dust. He didn't hesitate to grasp his shoulder and let his black and purple magic flow. The arm grew back quickly. He flung his hand forward and slammed her with a massive blow that flung her backwards. She screeched against the floor she flipped her foot and flung herself in to the air. She hovered easily next to Demetri and glanced down at Anubis who flung himself up into the air. She looked curiously at the seemingly small Demetri than back to Anubis. She gave him a haunting smile. She walked to him as if she were walking on an actual floor and not the air. She stopped short and growled a growl that put everyone to shame. He gave her a grin and moved closer.
His head moved quickly to her neck, her long sharp clawed hand moved to his shoulder as he whispered with a louder more dominate tone. "Would you like to smell the little human or shall I teach you respect, you little twit "He pulled back and gave her a huge grin as gasps were heard around the room. He sauntered back to me standing too left of me. Everyone on our side was looked quiet bored of these two until now. No one moved though. Hel growled and leapt down to the ground with a loud crash. Her aura was flaring dangerously, she was serious now….
Black and orange smoke pillowed around her, the sky was gone as was the floor. We might as well been standing on a black and orange cloud now. As she walked the sky started to show piles of the dead and dying. Screams of pure terror and horror echoed around her as she walked. With a humorous face Anubis stalked forward to her. She let out a loud scream. As she quieted down she flung her hand out and grasped him by his neck, bone breaking and a cracking could be heard. "Would you like me to teach you respect, little boy "
He let out a massive roar and growled out. Flipping around he started to call some major magic into the room. "Oh little brat I shall get you for that one! "He was about to dive forward when I started walking forward slowly. My elven style shoes clicking quietly against the floor. As I walked everyone I passed took a knee, Even the ones I didn't pass took a knee. I noticed they kept their head high up in the air watching even as they took a knee.
These two were fighting still not noticing me. Anubis now had his teeth around her neck trying to decapitate her. She was slicing at his back tearing off flesh as quickly as it healed. I stepped into the middle of the room. Still they fought. I spoke. My voice was worse than anything that had been heard. It was terrifying, but calm and slightly teasing. "Children of stop this now. " Nothing they continued to tear. So I spoke louder this time it thundered throughout the room. Making everyone shudder from the over whelming power it brought. "So help me both of you stop this now or will STOP IT FOR YOU "I screamed the last part out. As if someone had pressed the pause button. The stopped and stood up straight still glaring at each other. I nodded and went back to standing by Cano. Without another word. Tyr stepped forward and shook his head laughing softly.
He looked at both of them and spoke with his loud war torn voice. "You two really must stop playing at such a serious time. "He shook his head and started walking back to his spot. As he did a somewhat confidant voice piped up. Female and fairly tiny sounding.
"That was playing?!" He turned around and looked at the tiny female vampire who questioned him. He glared and finally nodded his head. "Yes that was playing. You should see them fight. "He walked off and stood in his spot with a cold look on his face.
"Hey I was talking to you! "That voice piped up again. "Get your giant flabby ass back here! "The voice demanded. His peaceful expression quickly turned cold. His eyes grew black and started to bleed a dark red color. Tyr was furious. The one who owned that voice was about to die.
The audience parted quickly. Leaving a female vampire standing alone with a grin. She looked down at her nails and spoke again. "Well come on big boy talk to me "she taunted. He stormed forward his hand on the hilt of his sword. He withdrew it quickly and before most anyone knew what hit them his sword was on the neck of the female.
I heard the female sigh as she started to shift in a larger form. Now the same size as Tyr. His face was handsome but teasing. He had black hair with emerald streaks in it. Fairly short. This man wore a look of teasing and humor. He had armor on like all of them did. His was a bit like Hel's it was elegant and looked more like clothes for the moment. They would both show there armor soon. I prefer them to keep it showing but the felt it was more a test of strength to keep it off. His eyes were that same pure green color different shades made up his irises. He let out a loud cackle that made most everyone shudder slightly. Tyr kept his stone gaze fixed upon this figure. The male waved his hand let his armor show. It was like any Grecian armor. Clothes and armor worked perfectly together. In shades of a shining grey and various other colors mostly neutral except that blue. Like Sapphires woven into a type of metal.
Lifting his fingers up he clicked them against the metal on the sword that was oh so close to his neck. Grasping it with his thumb and forefinger he pulled it away slowly pulling it down. Without a smile he started flaring up his magic a glazed look came over Tyr's eyes. Shaking his head he snapped out of it quickly. The new male turned around and gave another laugh this one was harsher. As it died down he spoke. "Norse and head god of Illusion and trickery, Son and suspected favorite to the great mother of all. Loki "He practically skipped over to me laughing loudly as he did. I had to shake my head I did miss Loki.
As he reached me he flung his arms out and them around me. "I missed you mummy poo "He was still hugging me when I heard a loud and very annoyed sigh. Cano picked Loki up by his neck and held him up high. As he did Loki shifted into a white and black baby puppy. His tail wagging and tongue flopped out of his mouth he kept wagging. Cano snapped his other hand bringing the real Loki back. Cano spoke with a hard tone. "Apologize to your mother Loki. You know she has no favorite. And learn to bow "He threw Loki down to the ground with a little much force. He landed gracefully on his feet. He took a knee and stared up at me.
"Mother I am sorry "He spoke quietly. Just enough for us to hear. I nodded and let him stand. Our ranks formed and Loki looked out at the crowd that watched us. "Are you having us fight with children around mother "He looked at me curiously.
I heard a lot of offended gasps and hisses coming from the vampires. I shrugged softly. "What would you expect Loki they must know the truth so yes they must stay and watch? Beside tell me you don't feel oh so strong right now.
He stood in his spot and spoke while he looked forward, his face was filled with malice and humor. An odd mix. "Dragons in a field of lambs. Will the dragons slaughter the sheep? "
