Author's Notes
This is my first fanfiction story. I first read, X3no97, version and was inspired on making my own version. Expanding more on the world and keeping realism.
Disclaimer: I don't own Akame ga Kill. I'm more or less taking inspiration from both anime and manga.
Uploading the next chapter either today or tomorrow. Any comments or criticisms is well appreciated.
M for language, gore, for chapters in the future.
Death isn't what one plans for, but one comes to terms with. For a person like herself, she assumed the void will be presented to her. Even if she believed in an afterlife then she believes that she will be sent to the lowest circle of hell. But now all she sees and sense now is nothingness. Her left hand is gone after fighting and losing to that woman, Akame.
"Perhaps, I should have taken Tatsumi's offer, and we still be together, alive." She pondered to herself. Rethinking to the last moments of her life, after being bested by Akame, limping to the one she loves, encasing the two in ice and disintegrating to tiny shards of ice. With no trace of them left behind. But her philosophy still stands, that the strong rule over the weak and the weak die out.
"Maybe, what we did was wrong, but were right to how we felt." She said in the void.
"What do you mean by that, Fraulein?" A voice rang out throughout the void.
She opened up her eyes. At first, she was blinded by the light that presented itself, but then the light settled down to the point where she can see with clarity. She is surrounded by nothing but woodlands, akin to that of the outskirts of the Capital. Standing over her was a man. Looks were not that of the Prime Minister Honest. He looked to be in his late 40s. With dark brown hair that one could mistake for being black hair and blue eyes, and with a small mustache that doesn't even reach the lip, only staying under the nose. In her opinion, he was a bit better looking than the fat pig she knew. She didn't know what the man was saying at first, but after opening her eyes, she began to understand every single word he is saying.
"It's nothing. Just a dream that was shattered long ago." She responded to the man as she was getting up from the dirty ground.
"I see. I to use to have dreams, but were shattered many years ago as well." As the man responded.
"Mind if I ask, but can I have your name as well as why are you in the forest?" The man asked in a polite manner.
"My father once told me to not talk to strangers. As they always maybe an enemy." She responded.
"Clever I see. Your parents have installed in you good morals. Since we're introducing ourselves, then I'll go first. The name is Hitler, Adolf Hitler. I'm the Führer and Chancellor of the great nation of Germany. And you, my blue-haired friend?"
"The name is Esdeath, of the Empire. I have several titles but many would call me the Ice Queen, Ice Witch, or the Ice General."
"A general you say. I must give my applause as such a young woman of your stature reaching such a rank at such time. But why do they call you Ice Queen or Ice Witch? Is there any reason?"
With a grin on her face, she answered his question. "I'll be glad to show you. Mr. Hitler." She pointed her left arm and it formed into an ice spear, then into a hand.
All he could was laugh. Not out of fear but of amusement. He, like so many people in the world, didn't believe in magic. As magic was in the confines of fantasy. He looked at Esdeath's face, seeing a grin of amusement. A woman like her isn't a woman, but a huntress. A type of huntress that kills for amusement and the thrill of it. Only drops of cold sweat appeared but no sign of fear. Perhaps he was holding it back to not let his image be tarnished by a woman that controls ice.
"This is amazing. Remarkable that one could control ice at will. I apologize If I missed judge you, Madam Esdeath. I would like to offer you a deal."
"What deal are you willing to offer?" She asked in a direct manner.
"Join me. Join me to bring this world under German leadership. To prove to those who think of us as weak, to those that humiliated, weakened us, and tarnished us, and take back our rightful place in destiny. I ask you, madam Esdeath. To stand with me and lead the Third Reich to not only victory but also its destiny. If you do wish to take upon my deal, then I shall not only give you a war but a world war. One that might triumph the Great War."
A world war. She never heard of such a concept. To have a war in every corner of the world. The Empire was grand and could muster strength but it wasn't grand, as it has enemies at every side. But this war, a war that covers the entire globe, that is something she won't pass out on. An opportunity to root out the weak and kill the weak of this world. This is something she can work with.
Esdeath places out her right hand. "You got yourself a deal." She spoke. Hitler shook her right hand with his, "I can't wait to see what you got to prove. Let's go, shall we. Ice General."
Esdeath smirked as the two retrieved their hands back and walked through the forest together.
