Death and Rebirth: Tale of Chaos

Prologue: Beginning of the End Part 1

Disclaimer: I don't own Phantasy Star Online, that belongs to SEGA and Sonic Team.

Author's Note: Now in all honesty I might not describe how my OC looks like in the story so I'll tell you now. For one thing he is a HUmar, second thing I don't like ANY of the costumes they give them so I'll be stealing Cloud's costume from FF7AC, so to make sure I don't get sued, I don't own that either that belongs to Square-Enix. Now for those who haven't seen how it looks and since I'm too damn lazy to describe go check how it looks and he also wears a black cloak over it in the actual story, not the prologue. Now as for his face he has bluish-green eyes, with black hair done in a ponytail, when undone it reaches to about halfway to his back, oh and he's about 5' 12. Now I'm done with this long AN on with the story.

"Azrael. Hey are you listening?"

I turn to look and see Kael, a soldier of Pioneer 1's military forces and pretty young 20-22 years old, and fellow comrade. In fact he's my only comrade in the military aside from Lieutenant Commander Heathcliff Flowen. They are the only ones who trust me and that I trust back, the rest simply see me as a Hunter, a merc doing any job for the right price. I also doubt they know it was Flowen, who's a military hero, himself hired me.

"Yeah, what is it Kael, have we reached our destination?"

Said destination, was ruins that were found deep underground, near the No Man's Mine. The 3 AIs Olga, Vol Opt, and Calus had found some strange readings coming from underground. With some searching we found the ruins.

"Yeah, we're here. Man, I can't wait, can you believe it? Ruins this deep underground, that means there was a civilization here, who knows what we might be able to learn, what we might find."

A deep chuckle comes from behind us, we both turn to see Lt. Commander Flowen.

"You should calm down, while this is an incredible find we still have to be careful, who knows how old there ruins are, they might fall on top of us as far as we know."

He had a point, but something else was bothering me. Flowen acted to familiar with this place, like he had been here before. I couldn't help but get a bad feeling about this, like something was going to go wrong. As we neared the entrance the feeling got a whole lot worse, it was then I knew something was going to happen, something bad. I just didn't know how bad it would be, or that this would be the beginning of the end.

We had entered the ruins, and everyone was on edge now. When we had arrived at the entrance, we found that it was sealed. The seal was strange, it looked almost... organic, and there were 3 symbols on it, they looked alike but were different colors, one red, another blue, and the last green. As I looked at them I got the feeling that while they looked the same, each stood for something else, that's when it happened. I heard a whisper in my mind, it frightened me but I couldn't say anything about it, and when it spoke the entrance began to open.

"MUUT," the red symbol vanished. "DIS," then followed the blue symbol. "POUMN," lastly the green symbol. With the symbols gone the seemingly organic door vanished, as if it was never there in the first place.

Everyone took out their weapons, prepared for anything, but nothing happened. The only one unnerved by this was Flowen, which added to my growing suspicion that he knew something and wasn't telling us all the details. After several minutes of waiting Flowen ordered us to enter, myself and Flowen taking the rear. As we entered, I heard the voice speak again.

"Come to me, see the truth of this world. You who are strong shall see and you will all die. While you live on as my host, my precious LittLe HoST HAHAhAhAHaHa."

When it spoke I couldn't reply, it was as if it was preventing me from doing so. It was then as we entered, for the first time in my life, I felt true fear.

Well this part is a lot shorter than I expected but it'll suffice. I had originally meant for the prologue to be 2 parts, but I'll probably have to extended it to 3 or 4 parts. Well anyways I hope you enjoyed it, and if you didn't thanks for reading it anyways. Feel free to Review, or Criticize, till next time.
