Chapter 13: Seraphim And Cherubim
(Opening A/N: Now it's time to test our new abilities and some sweet new armor enhancements. And now, we're up against three of Hex's assassins and this is not going to be an easy feat, these are the best of the best, and they know how to kill in the name of empress Jiulan. But in able to to get to either Jiulan or Hex, we need to give these guys our all if we have a chance to stand against the empire that have declared war on us. But to our enemies, we're going to cut a bloody path to the head of the beast and kill it. So without further ado...here's the next chapter!)
"Seraphim armor, Activate!" I shouted as the black armor began to surround my body and a shaded helmet with a pair of demon horns and a skull print formed around.
Then a demonic .50 caliber desert eagle appeared into my left hand, and that was a part of my Seraphim armor's arsenal.
"Cherubim armor, activate!" Akame shouted as she was enveloped by a suit of red armor, which showed the entire curves of her body, and I gotta say, it's not looking bad on her, just then, a second katana appeared in Akame's hand, and she had bloodlust along with me running through her veins.
Just then, a song played in my head, it was "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy, and it turned out that it wasn't in my head, I looked at the wristband and the name of the song along with the band scrolled across.
Grodd then charged at me and I did a flip over the gorilla humanoid as I then slashed Demon's Fang at him and it cut his arm.
"Gyaah!" Grodd shouted as blood began to gush out from the wound, and he backed off a moment as he took his good hand and punched me with it sending me through a nearby building, luckily I had little to no pain inflicted due to the armor.
So I got up and charged right at the gorilla humanoid, just then a portal opened and I got sucked into it with Grodd, just then Akame jumped into the portal after me, as soon as we all exited the portal, we found ourselves in a different universe.
"Where are we? It looks like some type of neo-punk city, sort of like Escape from New York." I said to myself and it turned out that this was a punk war type setting and it turned out that humans were all turned into animal humanoids just like Tania, but Tania was a product of the Russian super soldier serum she was forced to be injected with when she was a little girl, and she was forced to kill people under the name of the Kremlin, but thanks to a certain Russian mob boss and her former Spetznaz soldiers, she gave her a choice, either rot and wither away under the name of the Kremlin or join her cause and make her enemies pay for what they did to her, so she decided to trash the laboratory and destroy whatever serum they put into her body, and as a side effect of the serum, she was permanently turned into a cat girl, but it also gives her superhuman strength and the ability to sneak and kill people silently.
When I first met Tania, I was a little timid since she knows that she could tear me and gut me, but she opened up to me after we were partnered up to take out a snitch within Roanapur who was leaking information on Balalaika.
Nothing a sulfuric acid bath won't fix, the informant got the memo and left Roanapur in his rearview mirror never to look back.
And it turned out that Tania hated informants as well, she thought that they were cowards being paid to collect information on certain people, and she was found by an informant and was experimented on by his hand.
Just then the animal humanoids came out wearing some neo street punk clothing and they were armed with blunt force objects. One humanoid had a look of a doberman and he wore a spiked collar with his name etched on the tag, Stetz.
"It's not everyday some humans come armying into our territory, especially a beautiful red eyed girl like you." Stetz said as he began to sniff Akame, she gripped her Murasame as she was about to unleash all of her fury on the dog like humanoid.
Just then, a fist came out of nowhere and my armor came undone, I found myself slung over the shoulder of a tiger humanoid, he was pretty strong and he carried me off to a rundown building, which was populated with humans and humanoids alike, some carried weapons and others had children they were scared of seeing me being carried off by some tiger humanoid.
"Um, excuse me, could you put me down please? I promise I won't run away." I said, and the burly tiger humanoid placed me onto the ground.
"I got my eye on you, even if you try to run, I'll freaking kill you, understand?" The tiger humanoid said whose voice kind of reminded me of Ira Gamagoori from the anime Kill La Kill.
"You ain't gonna get any complaints from me, uh, what's your name?" I asked and we continued walking into the building.
"My name is Davark, and you are?" Davark asked, I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
"My name is Roman Rideout, and the one that I am after is a loyalist assassin named Grodd." I said, and Davark along with the rest of the humanoids stopped as the tiger humanoid along with the rest dropped to one knee as a black hooded figure appeared.
Akame and I decided to show some respect by doing the same thing, but the figure raised his left hand which was a metal prosthetic with some robotic features to it.
"Arise all of you, as for you and you, you must be Roman, and you must be Akame?" The hooded figure asked, I looked up at him as he removed his hood, it was me, but different, he had a scar going across the left side his face along with having a black eye patch over his left eye. With the word "King" written in Japanese on the eye patch as well.
"How did you know about us?" I asked, and as I looked around this place looked like a total dump.
"As you should know, I'm an alternate version of you, and the loyalist known only as Grodd is the ruler of this place, he overthrew me and killed Akame along with our son as an act of our defiance, I had everything stolen from me, my kingdom, my arm, my woman, my child, and my eye. But now, I have nothing left to lose." The alternate me said, it turned out that he too had Murasame, was it coincidence this happened?
Or was it some force that drew both me and Akame together?
But there was one thing that was certain, if we wanted to get back to Roanapur, we need to kill Grodd and get the kingdom back to it's former glory." The alternate me said as he gripped Murasame.
"And as soon as I avenge what has been taken from me, I'll be joining the lost with the tip of this blade." He also added, and with that, I knew that we needed to kill Grodd if we want to get back to Roanapur.
Just then the sounds of police sirens began to fill the area, and the new ruler wanted to enslave the humans along with any humanoids caught aiding them.
My heart began to sink looking at all the children along with all the innocent people looking to make a life for their own, only the only thing they were fueled by was Hope and what Grodd was bringing was greed and despair.
Fourth wall break…
Okay, I hate to say this, but this looks a hell of a lot like DanganRonpa and Grodd is a male gorilla version of Junko Enoshima, but that's just my thought.
Just then a cheetah humanoid appeared and she went up to the alternate me, as she and him both kissed.
"Chinaka, what news do you bring me, and how's the child?" The alternate me asked as he placed his right hand on the cheetah humanoid's stomach.
"Our son will pull through, my love, and you will regain your empire. But it turns out that Grodd is sending his military at us full swing." Chinaka said, and those words just made me gape my mouth open like some fish.
Akame then placed her hand onto the bottom of my mouth and she pushes it up closing it for me.
"Sorry about that, I had no idea that you and her were getting it on." I said, The alternate me then shook his head as if it was nothing.
"After Grodd enslaved Revy and Tania, along with killing Akame along with our son, I felt like my world was destroyed, but I'm going to tear down Grodd's kingdom and rebuild the 'Gundham Empire.'" The alternate me said as I tried to wrap my head around what the hell the Gundham empire is, then it hit me, he created his persona along with naming his empire, after Gundham Tanaka from DanganRonpa: Goodbye Despair.
Just then, a group of androids under the control of Grodd came to arrest all of us, but that was when I pulled out Demon's fang from its sheath.
Akame along with the other me pulled out their Murasames and the androids began to charge at us with stun batons but as soon as they had a chance to make their move, I reactivated my Seraphim armor and began to look at the number of android soldiers that Grodd has sent.
"Looks like 49, 50, 51 soldiers, not too bad, but he could've sent more." I said as I had the Seraphim pistol in my right hand.
The android leader then waved his shock baton forward and the android soldiers began to charge at me, and I pointed the gun at the group as they charged right at me along with the rest of the group, but the pistol charged up and fired a single red beam as it blasted out of the pistol and disintegrated the android armada in the area.
The only thing left that was left was one android head as it was recording the aftermath.
"Hello Grodd, was that good enough for you? I'm going to destroy you along with those fellow assassins of Hex, and after we kill you three, Hex is next along with Jiulan." I said as I tossed up the android head up in the air, and sliced it in half with Demon's Fang.
The screen began to go snowblind with static, as Grodd was upset that we still were on the hunt for him along with his two fellow assassins.
"Give me everybody that's available!" Grodd ordered and all of the androids began to move out.
As soon as the android army was dispatched, the damage was done and we all made our escape to the underground.
We were taken to an underground city which looked a little run down but it was peaceful, and there were humans and humanoids living in harmony with one another.
"What do you think?" The alternate me asked, and I just let out a small whistle.
"This looks really peaceful, I mean, there's no war here." I said, and all the kids were having fun, chasing each other, and laughing.
"Well, I wanted peace between the human along with the humanoid races, but thanks to the coup d'etat that Grodd launched onto my kingdom, he enslaves humans and any humanoids aiding them." The alternate me said, as he gripped a fist with his right hand and he also gritted his teeth after the coup Grodd costed the lives of both many humans along with humanoids and enslaved so many more.
And it seems that we need to cause an uprising, if we want to overthrow Grodd's empire.
But first, we need to rest up so we can recover our strength, Akame and I were given our own room and we both decided to turn in as it was going to be a long fought battle tomorrow.
