Sickness Chapter

Episode 1: Gathering Information

The moons were back to their original luminous glow for the first time, for today marks the end of Mating Season. No telling whose dead and whose still alive by now. I wondered if Dark Eve and the rest of Bloodstreak was ok. By the way Lost was looking I could tell she was abit concerned for Ponzo and the rest as well. Maybe later I'll go and check it out. But right now I've got abit of a problem, I have to kill my own sister.

Or rather a being whose suppose to have been my sister...or something like that.

Uzi, Lost, Rodo, Naota, Crush and I all sat on the long steps before the Kilika Temple, dead bodies and blew slewed all along the path to the temple. Having feasted on them previously while we pondered. My mother or rather Erza, was gone. At the end of mating seasons she entrusted me with the task of doing Sickness Black, my sister, in. As I rubbed my claws cleverly along my chin I had to think of a plan to attack her.

"Still ain't figure nothin out yet SB?" Crush asked taking a bite out of a female's thigh which was torn off at the pelvis.

"Sickness had joined forces with the HUNTERS and from Erza's intel, she's located in the heart of the HUNTERS base, Bevelle. We don't have the man power to go up against that fortress." Lost said laying the facts out which sort of stung alittle.

Rodo opened her umbrella then closed it, her face was covered in blood as if it were make up but she refused to clean it off. "If we can't go to them why not get them to come to us?"

"How?" I asked.

"Remember the tournament on Skull Island, the Death Skull Tournament?" She replied playing around with her umbrella by tapping against a stone step.

Crush spit up blood and chunks of human meat. "OH YEAH ANOTHER MAN-EATER TOURNAMENT IS COMIN' UP BOSS! WE SHOULD GO TO IT!"

"Crush shut up and chew your food." I said waving my hand off at the brute. "Rodo go on."

Lost interjected. "I think I know what she's getting out, we should go and participate in the tournament."

"YES!" Crush raised a fist.

"But we should also tell the HUNTERS." Naota also added his piece.

"But how will we get them to send high ranking Man Eaters and HUNTERS after us?" Uzi asked cuddling up beside me which sort of made Rodo snort.

I narrowed my eyes. "It'll be abit of a longshot but before the tournament begins we should go around to different Man Eater clans and invite powerful Man-Eaters to participate. If we get enough strong guys there then HUNTERS will have no choice but to disbatch the highest motherfuckers to try and eliminate them." I grinned from ear to ear. "Heh and that's the plan."

"Goin' to other Man Eater Clans and knockin' on their doors. I love it." Crush stood to his feet, his gruesomely huge muscles flexing and his enormous fists tightened. I looked back at the others Naota nodded standing to his feet as well as Rodo. Lost was down below the steps staring off into the distance like a loner and Uzi gave me a full arms around my neck hug.

"Alright Blitzkrieg...let's go!" I ordered and with that everyone bared their fangs. "RIGHT!"

With one leap I flew several feet into the air and landed down at the bottom of the steps with the rest of my clan landing down around me like a group of ninjas. Together we dashed through the Kilika Woods passing by Fiends whom dared not attack. Because of the whole Mating Season fiasco our Gigas ship as well as our home was completely destroyed leaving us with nothing. I really do hate rebuilding but it's inevitable.

We'd run straight into town, the warm huts full of fresh human meat were silent and still, it was very late at night so it didn't surprise me too much to see them sleeping. We dashed straight for the ferry docked at the port, upon touching deck we immediately began upravelling ropes and unweighing anchors. With all of the commotion two Kilikan sailors came out of the cabin, they wearily stepped out after a good yawn and glared at us.

"Hey whaddaya think you're...AHHGHHHH!" One of the sailors screamed but it was too late, I'd closed in on him quick and took a massive bite out of his jugular. He held his neck and simply fell back choking on his own blood. The second sailor's eyes widened at my sudden speed and before he could take off a katana stabbed in through his throat and slid out with precision and speed. He dropped to his knees and fell over like a cold stone, I expected to see Lost but instead it was Uzi. Holding a ceremonial katana in her usual ceremonial kimono.

Pulling a samurai like strawhat from her head she smiled at me. "Please allow me to fight alongside you as well Satan-sama."

I rubbed behind my head. "Geez I didn't know you could fight."


Meanwhile under the Moonlit skies...

The massive fortress of Bevelle with ever alert gaurds stood tall and firm even in the darkest hours of the night. Atop a balcony dressed in a stirly white suit was Baralai, commander of the HUNTERs and underground Agent under Seymour Guado. Infront of him stood a small table wrapped in a white cloth with plates and golden silverwear. He sipped on a glass of wine staring up at the moonlit skies white waiting for his date to arrive.

The glass balcony door cracked open the slowly opened wider and wider until a full figure of a girl with dark brown skin and jet black hair walked in, she had crimson red eyes and wore a shining red dress with long arm gloves. She stared down at Baralai whom stood up and opened a chair for her to sit down."My lady." He smiled but she didn't return it. She simply sat down and crossed her legs seeing a wine glass filled with human blood infront of her.

"Sickness my darling Man-Eater HUNTER." Baralai smiled again. "I'm so glad you accepted my invitation to dinner."

"Cut to the chase bloodbag, what do you want?" She asked showing her fangs abit.

Baralai grabbed the bottle of wine and poured himself another glass. "What's the status on the Man Eater Kings?"

"Hm..." Sickness narrowed her eyes.

"Don't play coy with me. I know very well what's already going on within the Man Eater Branch of the HUNTERs squad. You're going after high rollers, I've been informed that you led an attack on Soda Fountain." Baralai replied stirring his glass up with a twirl before taking another sip. "So how was it."

Sickness looked down at the table. "Everyone of them have been eliminated from Oz to have all been eliminated."

"I don't suppose you have any proof of this?" Baralai asked.

Sickness stood up and grinned from ear to ear looking similar to Satan Black. "You want proof? It's just down there human." She said pointing over the balcony. Baralai stood to his feet, his eyes wide and dilated he dashed to the balcony's rim and stared over to see Yevonite soldiers pulling in five coffins.

"Miyax of the skies, Salamander of the Underground, Iceberg of the North and Exile of the South and Oz the King of Man Eater Kings, with the exception of the West Queen Rodo...You can check the corpses if you wish, they are geniune I assure you." Sickness said grabbing her glass and taking a sip of blood.

"Impossible..." Baralai said with wide eyes. "Intel says that you left with a group of three how could you...ahh Mating Season, you waited until..."

Before the priest could finish Sickness stood to her feet and glared at him angrily with the intent to kill."You believe that someone as strong as me has to wait until Mating Season? No...I killed them with my bare hands. A day before Mating Season began."

With that announced Baralai's heart sank. 'Impossible, this girl...defeated the Kings whom Yevon has been fighting for centuries? This can't be...'

"Man Eaters...all of them must die. I'll eliminate every single man-eater on this planet...And then I'll kill myself." She said just before walking off.

"WAIT! Sickness Black, there is something you need to know...you have brother. He is the proclaimed Dark Hero Satan Black and the West Queen Rodo is within his clan..."

"I know of him already and the whereabouts of the West Queen are not strong enough to stop me nor hinder me in any way possible, there are much bigger fish to fry in this sea of carnage."

"GAH!"

A scream broke out from the Bevelle main courtyard as one of the coffin doors popped open, yevonite soldiers fired off their rifles at a sludge covered corpse that was once Oz the King of all Man-Eaters. The undead corpse moaned in agony covered in a dark green toxic slime that slowly but surely ate away at the flesh like acid. "It's Oz! He's back from the dead!" A yevon captain screamed blasting off multiple flamethrower guns at the walking dead but with a single hand sweep the undead Oz swept away the line of soldiers as if they were nothing.

Baralai marveled at Oz's reawakening while Sickness merely grunted. She leaped over the balcony railing landing down in the courtyard floor across from the undead Oz. As the demonic zombie moaned dragging it's feet towards her, she ripped her dress at the side to give her thighs more mobility.

"S-Sickness-ness-esss..." Oz groaned, in a final effort the King of Man-Eaters stomped down hard and enough to cause an upheaval of the earth around him. With that he leaped forward blasting off like a rocket at high speed, the whipping winds blew up Sickness' skirt revealing that she wore no underwear. Staring at her maiden hair Baralai blushed as he looked off in another direction.

She didn't move an inch as Oz simply passed her by and stopped himself acouple of yards behind her, he dropped to both his kness and his body slowly fell apart, his arms dropped from his shoulders as well as his head, his torso melted with the green acid that ate away at him.

Baralai rested his arms on the balcony railing looking over Sickness. 'She truly is the most dangerous man-eater on the face of this planet. Her power over poisons prooved to be too much for even Oz. That deadly liquid corrodes the skin and destroys ones internal organs turning it into sludge, and she can easily create, manipulate as well as become this toxic sludge. There's no doubt within me, that she is the Man-Eater whom will destroy all Man-Eaters.' The commander of the HUNTERs thought as he raised a glass.
