Here's the newest chapter, let me know what you all think.
Strayphoenix-thanks for the continuing support and I also wish I had more reviewers.
Attica- If they didn't have princesses what did they call the female daughter of their rulers? I just thought they might as they had princes (such as Adonis of Thrace), thanks for the information anyway. Oh by the way while I remember ancient Greece didn't have mutants who shoot red beams of energy from their eyes either lol.
Western War
The blood dried on the grass as the sun rose over the horizon, the battle the day before had been bloody but it had only been a warm up, it was a distraction, it was buying time.
The warriors had arrived late in the night when the moon was full and the day's battle had ended. "The enemies troops are amassing" said one of the scouts as he kneeled before his leader who stood naked before him without a care as they raised their armour to their chest to dress.
"We shall summon the subordinates" said the commander as the black helmet with a sharp blade on top was lowered down across the thick head of hair.
"The soldiers are too injured to continue, half of our troops cannot even stand while the other half are in no condition to fight" said the soldier again as he slowly eyed his commander, he wished he hadn't as his eyes were met with a glare which had frozen men's hearts.
The black curtain that served as a door to the tent swept sideways as three figures strode through into the tent, two looked very similar, they were already dressed in golden armour which showed the brilliance of their blonde hair, they both had shoulder length blonde hair. The female of the two wore a normal soldiers helmet but with chain mail sweeping down her back, the male stood taller then everyone else in the tent and had a giant run of red feathers down the centre of his helmet. The third was very different from the others, she wore almost no armour and her hair was long, dark and platted into two. "We are enough…tell your soldiers to rest" said the commander as the subordinates separated and exited the tent.
…
The battle field lay across the plains to the east, it would take less then a few minutes till they were in the view of the enemy. "What are your orders?" asked the blonde female to her commander.
Her commander brushed the streak of white hair which fell through her helmet out of her eyes and tucked it under her helmet before she spoke "Kill them all."
…
The soldiers who had been gathered to oppose the army of death (as they were nicknamed) stood ready to fight, the battle the day before had been a decisive victory for them and with no sight of the enemies most feared warriors they once again had high hopes. There hopes ended as they saw the army of hundreds of thousands men marching in their direction.
"They see that they are outnumbered by five to one" said the dark haired warrior as she rode on her brilliant white horse next to their commander.
"Good Danielle…Sam destroy their left flank" ordered Commander Rogue as her horse turned so she could command her army of three. Sam nodded to her command and quickly blasted off into the air before altering course and heading directly at the soldiers of the opposing army. The wind rushed through the hair of the three girls who watched him go, Rogue turned to the blonde haired girl who nodded back, she clicked her throat at her horse which was impeccably trained and knew that meant to go at full speed, the horse and the girl were gone in seconds.
"Danielle keep up their nightmares and I shall return with the head of their general" ordered Rogue as she took off after Tabitha on her own horse.
…
Soldiers blasted left and right as the unstoppable force of Samuel drove through their ranks, shields dinted, swords broke, armour smashed and bones cracked as he collided with the army of soldiers. Sam turned in mid air and dove once again through the ranks destroying even more soldiers on their feet, arrows bounced off him and swords touched him but merely broke, he was known and feared throughout the land as Sam the indestructible one of the most feared in the army death.
Littered between the soldiers destroyed by Sam lay other soldiers who screamed to their gods and too their loved ones. Danielle Moonstar twisted their emotions and fears around her finger as she brought their greatest nightmares to life before their eyes. Their minds slowly gave way to insanity as they lay as broken men beneath the feet of their comrades.
The third of the warriors made the escape of soldiers impossible, she rained down sparkling orbs which destroyed what they touched, the ground beneath their feet was the first thing to go as explosions blew holes in the floor making them unable to escape from the battle field. She smiled and laughed insanely as she showered down more spheres which sent limbs and blood flying across the battle field.
Rogue was the final of the warriors to ride into battle, she rode to the front of the enemy army which was divided between insanity, Tabitha and Samuel, she sat on her horse and placed her hands on her head and almost instantly the soldiers slowly keeled to the floor. Rogue hoisted herself from the horse and walked amongst the broken and bleeding bodies "The powers taken from Mesmero do me well" she thought to her comrades who agreed and began to make their way to her position, Rogue crouched and began to place her hands on the bodies of the soldiers as she absorbed their memories, thoughts, energies and finally their lives.
"It is over" said Tabitha as she dismounted and stood with Rogue.
Rogue raised her head and looked at Tabitha "We have slain this army and all that is left for today is for me to absorb them but Tabitha you know it is far from over…it will not be over till we ride east further and destroy the gods. That is our mission for it is the wish of Lord Apocalypse and it will be done because we are his horsemen…"
