Festival/Battle for Survival
Jake slashed his blade into the demon cutting through its thick hide its blood sparying onto him. Victor and Brogan laughed and roared as they cleaved through the demons with their axes. The beastes backed away they had never seen mortals put up this kind of fight then as they circled around powerful arrows struck through their faces they screamed. Valrun turned his eye trained on enemies his arrows looseing Jonas smiled and chopped horns from demons and handed them to Valrun who merely kept fireing.
"Valrun you keep that up the demons will run out!"
They all laughed at that as Jake turned and cleaved through another one.
"Somethings not right this is to easy these beasts seem to weak to be the real problem... Why is this so easy?"
They kept fighting slashing and chopping then Jake heard something he turned his eyes widened in his helm. The reason it had been easy was because they had been at the hawks with them gone only Jake and his men were left. JAke turned and looked at the on coming hoard his eyes cold his gauntleted hand tightening on his sword he saw Valrun shooting his last arrows/horns at the demons then dropping his bow he drew his curved blade. Jonas drew his twin blades and turned towards the horde his eyes narrowing. The Ax brothers held their axes and smiled.
"We stand before an army so I expect none of you to half ass this understand full on fighting and if your about to die... Tell me and then give the team time to pull back then use those last resorts do you understand?!"
They all nodded and Jake put his sword on his shoulder Gatts style.
"Good cause I don't plan on dieing in this place."
With that Jake slashed down and cleaved through a demons skull then with a roar all of them attacked and slashed Victor And Brogan spinning cutting into the beasts. Jake turned he saw the waves of demon he knew that this battle was not a possible win. Then as he slashed a demon down he heard a roar of agony he turned to see Brogan being bitten on the arm he was chopping wildly Jake charged forward and cleaved the demons head he turned to Victor. He was over Brogan swinging his ax Jake looked at his eyes and knew that he wasn't leaving Brogan's side.
"Shit! Valrun Jonas lets go those two are on their own we need to get better footing."
They turned at Jake and Victor gave Jake a nod and then smiled and turned back to the demons Jake turned and with a last glance at his two strong men of his group he grabbed his sword tighter and chopped his way out of the trouble Jonas and Valrun close behind him.
"You two had better kill more of them or I might have to worry."
Jake heard the battle behind him but was no longer thinking about that something felt wrong why did he feel that this was only the eye of the storm... Then he heard it the explosion and the screams of demons. Jake smiled darkly his last resort if ever caught in a unwinnable condition. Jake had made powerful explosives and given them to every man on his group each had a piece of flint to light and they would sacrifice themselves and buy Jake the time nesscary to escape. Victor and Brogan had just used theirs.
"Those two are gone now there is only myself Valrun and Jonas... We can't win unless we get out of here Damn you Griffith why can't I figure out what to do..."
He kept running then he saw it. Gatts roaring and covered in blood fighting with everything he had and more he was awashed in demons blood and from the looks of his wounds needed help.
"Jonas help Gatts Valrun stay with me and prepare for a last stand I think we can win if we last another hour... Don't ask me why either I just get this feeling."
Jonas looked at Jake then with his same cool stare turned and ran to Gatts and cut into the demons with the same vigor and cold way Jake had seen in him as a Hawk. Jonas was much more then he let on and Jake smiled to himself as Valrun cut down demons and they stood back to back. Jake turned and cleaved through more he felt it growing inside of him a dark hatred a dark passion his eyes under his helm became libid and full of a dark blue flame his smile grew and grew his slashes became more and more wild and deadly and no demon neared him they started to back away and concentrate on Jonas and Gatts. Then jake heard a scream he glanced at Valrun his body was completly impaled by long whip like fingers his helm had been ripped from his head and his gray eyes showed he was dying he laughed and lit his fuse Jake smiled and grabbed a demon and allowed turned it to the explosion. He felt it and the demon turn to meat. Jake felt his helm fly from his head felt the blood from the dead demon pour over him he smiled he hadn't felt this good in so long all his planning all his desk work had made him long for a true battle he smiled and turned his eyes causeing even beasts like them to cower.
"He is chaotic he even causes me to shiver."
"That man causes demons to feel fear not a very common atribute."
"He is only a mortal and all mortals must fall before fate."
Jake heard the conversation and felt a laugh and started to laugh uncontrolably causeing the four beasts to look at him the confusion evident.
"I'm sorry its just you stand up there like the world is yours and I can't help but think... If you govern fate and that make's the world have order then that means I wasted my time in kingdoms... I just kill you and chaos will insue."
Jake laughed again then stopped as he felt a wave of presure assault him he staggered a bit then looked up to see it a man covered in red skin like armor and wings his helm the exact same helm of Griffiths Jake looked and watched the man fly over to the wounded Gatts and struggleing Jonas. Then Jake watched as a naked Casca was lowered to him Jake saw the red eyes glint slightly and Jake started to run at them.
"Don't touch her you bastard!"
Gatts watched as Griffith grouped her and smile and smile at his reaction. He couldn't save her he was stuck the demon latched onto his arm he roared and cut at his own arm he turned and saw Griffith move in his intention clear Gatts screamed and cut his arm away and charge only to be grabbed and stopped again his left eye gouged. He roared he cried as Griffth moved in towards her. Then was shocked as a blood covered figure slashed and Griffith was forced to drop Casca before he could do what he had planned.
"GRIFFITH!!!!!!!"
Jake roared the name and looked at the man his eyes full of fury here was the man who had sent him here and caused the deaths of three of his men. He heard Jonas cut and show himself Jake turned and saw his swords were covered in blood and his helm was gone.
"Jake you still live I can't help but feel joy you will be able to die by my hands now."
Jake looked at Griffith then with no word cut the demons holding Gatts in two then turned his body covered in demons blood.
"I crippled you and ruined your life once this just means I need to try again."
Casca opened her eyes to find Gatts unconcious and covered in blood and his right arm now was cut off. She felt the tears come but stopped as Jonas landed beside her. He was fighting trying as hard as he could to protect them his eyes ablaze. Then she turned and saw them Jake awash in demons blood a denomic bloody grin and blazeing blue eyes his shoulder length hair discolored and covered in blood. He was looking up at Griffith now covered in the blood armor and floating above his wings open like a cloak he was like a dark angel. She looked at the two and remembered a painting she'd seen at Midlands capital and she saw that the painting and this scene were almost identical. A battle between a demon and angel was about to take place.
