Keeping the old Blood Dragon Emperor, I just decided on a re-write because I believe I have improved as a writer. Moreover, the plot of the old blood dragon emperor was a bit convoluted and seeing the writing quality, made me rather unhappy with the work ergo a rework.

Dragon Blood

Khaos Brigade Base

The soft clicking of a pair of flip-flops echoed through the corridor of the Khaos brigade many buildings, this one housed the hero faction. The wearer of said flip-flops earned the attention of those she passed. After all, who could not ignore the beauty that was Kuroka of the Valeria squad. In her hands was a file and she was heading towards its recipient. As she made her way further towards the end of the building, less and fewer people were found. And Kuroka could not blame them, she could sense it intimately the blood lust, anger and rage. It stained the walls and the very floor she walked on. It as was if it was painted in it and every molecule had absorbed it.

She finally came to the door that housed the propagator of the bloodlust. The door was large, metallic and plain looking. The door had a small slit which could be used to feed documents and papers through. Kuroka knocked on the door before slipping the documents through.

"We found her, the holy priestess." She promptly summarised the contents of the document. She waited a few moments, a bone-chilling growl was heard before an answer was given.

"Thank you Kuroka I will handle her recruitment myself, send Vali my regards for providing me with the information…."

Kuroka shuddered at the deep and powerful voice of the red dragon emperor. The voice pierced the door like it was nothing and had this not been the first time Kuroka delivered something she probably would have frozen on the spot. The voice of the red dragon emperor, the being that put fear into the supernatural, not even gods was immune.

The Red Dragon Emperor first announced his arrival to the world in the cataclysmic destruction of Kuoh. Rumours still fly as to what caused the awakening of the red dragon emperor but one thing was for sure the moment he wakened the whole world felt it and the destruction of Kuoh was one of the first to truly feel it.

How he came to join the Khaos Brigade was a rather interesting story. There were rumours of killings, more like massacres of devils, angels, fallen angels and humans associated with them. This drew the attention of the Khaos Brigade as there was an aura of dragon power at every murder scene, a power they wanted and Ophis ordered them to find. Vali squad were assigned to it and one day Valeria found him. He was quickly jostled over by the various sub-factions but Cao Cao won out and he was put under the Hero Faction/Vali Squad. He still maintained a relationship with the Vali squad but no one knew who he truly was besides Vali. Even Kuroka herself had not figured out who he was, he held his identity close and was rarely seen. If he was seen, he was in his armour leaving to carry out a mission or dragging a helpless victim for torture. The superiors turned a blind eye to it as he got results but there were rumours that they would not rather draw his ire. He was a being possessed with a goal, a goal to exact vengeance but on how no one knew…

Kuroka hopped she was not on that list or in his way, her nine lives would not be enough. If half of what he did was true.

Asia Argento didn't understand what was happening. She had served God faithfully and had been sent away for one mistake, she only saw a soul in need. But he turned out to be a devil, she couldn't have known. They didn't care, she was no longer a holy priestess in their eyes. They sent her away and here she was bound to a cross by fallen angels and exorcists. She thought it was a test, god was merely testing her and he would reward her for enduring. She would be welcomed back to her home and be able to do the lords work once again healing those who were injured.

Raynare who took her in and offered her sanctuary was a liar, she betrayed her. She offered sweet smiles and honeyed words but they were just lies, more lies. Raynare and her comrades and the exorcists under their command just watched with gleeful pleasure. She would have begged for mercy or someone to help her but she knew her words would fall on deaf ears. Raynare was making some speech but Asia couldn't care, she only wished she would hurry up and allow her to go to heaven. So she may find some semblance of peace.

A sharp noise interrupted Asia's thoughts the sound of smashing wood, everyone's eyes were greeted by a hulking red figure. Asia could feel power and anger from the figure. Whatever it was, its armour was intimidating with jagged and overlapping sections. The armour was crimson and at that moment everyone knew who it was. A palpable fear invaded the atmosphere. And one word echoed

[Boost!]

A scared out of his mind exorcist stuttered

"The blood dragon..." he didn't finish his words as he was lifted off his feet by the figure, its emerald eyes regarding him before a sharp snap was heard and the body was thrown to the side with blatant disregard. This snapped the fallen angels out of their stupor.

"Kill him!" Raynare howled but the fear was evident. Her comrades, Kalawarner, Millet and Dohaneesk reacted but some of the exorcists froze in fear. Freed Selzan even for all his craziness hesitated. Asia would be a fool not have heard of the blood dragon emperor his massacres were infamous. Asia felt more comfortable it was known to give quick deaths, it was a better alternative than having her soul ripped out.

Freed Selezan was one of the first to die, the crazed priest finding an armoured gauntlet punched through his heart before he was ripped from the inside out. The other exorcists were quick to break but they would die running, some in their excrement. They were quickly ripped apart. The fallen angels threw a barrage of light spears and swords killing some of their exorcists but it wasn't enough they pinged harmlessly off his armour, only seeming to anger it more.

Its crimson armour was soaked in blood and he stood at the front of the altar glancing at her before it looked at the four fallen angels. They threw a bunch of spears but the being growled before throwing its arm out and with contemptuous ease flung away their pathetic light spears.

He then turned to gaze at them with hatred and annoyance. Such a gaze seemed to root them but Dohnaseek ran first. He was quickly grabbed by the leg and it was torn from its socket, making him fall to the floor and scream before the hulking being stamped his foot on his back crippling the fallen angel before crushing his head with another stomp ending his pathetic life. Millet and Kalawarner took flight attempting to flee but found their wings grabbed and with howling screams, he tore one of their wings. Leaving them flightless and howling.

Raynare in shock fell to her knees and begged. Tears streaming from the previously pompous, prideful and overconfident fallen angel.

"I will do anything, I will be your bitch your slut, I will suck yo…" an armoured fist was shoved through her mouth and for once it spoke.

"Shut your mouth whore…" a voice filled with anger and hatred growled with contempt before he turned his hand upwards and lifted tearing her head in half. Raynare's eyes rolled up, now lifeless and glassed over. Throwing the half, he ripped off to the side before turning to Kalawarner and Millet who were balling their eyes out knowing what their fate would be.

Asia shivered but some part of her took twisted satisfaction in watching the Blood Dragon Emperor kill those who betrayed her. The figure then turned his contemptuous gaze towards Millet. The fallen angel begged for mercy but it fell on deaf ears. The figure gazed letting Millet stew in fear and then there was pooling beneath her and it wasn't blood.

"Disgusting…" another growl emanated from the being. He raised his foot and once again stomped this time breaking Millet's knee earning a howling scream from the petite fallen angel. Kalawarner continued sobbing and attempt to flee before a draconic tail reached out and impaled her legs preventing her from running.

It then turned back to its original prey. It leaned down and grabbed her arm and slowly began pulling, Millets screams escalated and slowly but surely her arm gave way with squelch her arm was torn from its socket. He then chucked in front of Kalawarner a warning of what was to come. Seeming to have enough with his prey, he raised his foot and promptly stomped out Millet's screams and her existence. Her face exploding from the sheer force of the stomp covering Kalawarner in her friends own blood.

Kalawarner fruitlessly crawled away begging for mercy and asking him to stay away. The blood dragon approached her and kicked her over onto her back before straddling her stomach and raising his fists and then began the punching.

"Your" a nose breaking punch followed

"Life" a jaw-breaking punch

"Is" a sharp crack was heard

"Worthless" more screaming followed as It punched her right eye deeper into her skull

"To" he punched her breaking some more bones before reaching into her mouth and simply tearing out her tongue, her mouth pooling with her blood threatening to drown her. It raised both his fists and then swung downwards.

"ME!" It roared mercilessly as Kalawarner faces received the full might of the blood dragon emperors fist, her head exploding soaking his fists in her blood, muscle and sinew. It rose and turned to Asia Argento stepping closer. She could smell the blood and the hated. It was an inferno that could devour her whole. She closed her eyes awaiting her fate. The clattering of chains breaking and falling to the floor caused her eyes to open.

The hulking figure was mere centimetres away from her and was unchaining her. The smell of blood made her gag but the figure didn't seem to care at her gagging noises. Within moments the chains that held her were no more and she fell from the cross landing on her rear. She unconsciously rubbed her wrists before glancing up to the imposing being.

"Asia Argento" It was less of a question more of a statement but Asia answered nonetheless

"Y-Y-es" she barely managed to stutter the words and they came out as a whisper. The tilting of the figures head indicated it heard her. It reached forward and grabbed her by the wrist it was a confusing grip firm but attempting to be gentle.

"W-where are you taking me?" she questioned her saviour

"Somewhere safe" it answered poignantly. It turned on its feet and began walking away from her. Asia nervously glanced at the being unsure whether or not to follow. It paused after a few more steps.

"This isn't a negotiation Asia…. Either you come or you don't…. but I assure you it will be much better if you come with me" the being spoke not even bothering to look over its shoulder. Asia knew what the latter part of his words meant. It was obvious, her legs quivered and she fell to her knees. It stopped before turning around to walk forward and tower over her.

"Yes or No"

Asia paused, her mouth opening and closing in fear but no words coming out. But she managed to summon her strength and squeak out a reply.

"Y-Yes"

It turned around and lifted her into his arms before taking her outside the church. Asia was scared but she felt she could trust him. He did just save her; her sacred gear was more useful if she was alive. She only lived because she had it. Carrying her outside, she saw sunlight.

It warmed her skin as it touched, she felt much safer already. It was weird, she felt she could trust this thing more than anything else right now. The being glanced down and regarded her before suddenly putting her down. She wanted to ask what was wrong but she could not bring herself to do so.

"Devils…." it growled venomously, Asia shuddered she never heard so much anger and hatred in a voice.

Within moments stepping out of the trees were 16 devils. Asia's eyes widened and she shook her head in disbelief. She could hear the audible scraping of the being's hands, its armoured hand digging into its armoured palm.

Asia could see the male she saved, the devil who she saved, the one who resulted in her being excommunicated. This day was too confusing for her, the nun's mind and body were too strained she passed out. The being glanced for a second at her unconscious form before turning back to the devils.

Its eyes narrowed on the male, it could sense more power from him. He oozed decadence and arrogance dark green hair and with golden eyes that regarded it with contempt.

"Blood Dragon Emperor, we have no qualms with you…. Just hand over that nun and we can go our separate ways."

The being shook, its body vibrating with anger. The arrogance! The deceit! The entitlement! DEVILS!

With a guttural roar escaping the being's lips, all hell broke loose as Diodora Astaroth peerage and himself scrambled to defend themselves. His first female pawn found herself punched through the gut impaled on the blood dragon emperors fist before he threw her off helplessly to another pawn pinning her beneath her friends dying body.

His claws began tearing anything that came close while his tail swished behind piercing holes in nearby foes. The roar of boosts echoing through the forest as the red dragon powered up even more and more. His form blurring into hues of red and green. Asia's head began swirling the power it was suffocating her; she could feel metaphorical claws clasp around her throat as if Ddraig himself was choking her. Coupled with all that had happened to her today. It was too much for the poor nun who found herself sucked into throes of unconsciousness.

The Blood dragon emperor was uncaring for this, his sole goal was to massacre these devils. A flurry of moves and attacks, claws, kicks, punches and jabs from his tails. One pawn jabbed through the throat and choking on their own blood, the other face torn off by the dragon's claws… their howling screams progressively unnerving Diodora Astaroth. His queen glancing at him nervously, seeking some guidance.

"Lord Astaroth… we should pull back"

The pure-blooded devil was seized by fear and was frozen in place, he was confident but he had overestimated himself. He was snapped back to reality… by the snapping of his Rook's neck and the scream of horror from the other Rook and bishops as well as his knights. One tried of the knights tried to run but found her head vaporised by a blast of green dragon energy. The other well would be able to run if her legs were not removed from her, left as a chunk of meat. Eyes lifelessly glazed over as her blood stained the grass and trees. Mouth stretch open in wordless horror.

The last rook fell flat on her ass, her legs shivering as the tall hulking being stared down, green eyes of contempt. Her mouth was openly prepared to scream but, all she was greeted with was a red fist clasping around her throat, the red sharpened claws piercing her flesh with ease as her windpipe was crushed before being torn out or what was left of it at least. Her hands desperately clasping her throat as she tried to stop the bleeding but to no avail as her lifeless body plopped onto the grass. The red being kicked her body aside with contempt.

The being levelled its eyes at the remaining 4, Astaroth, his queen and two bishops.

"Run my lord!" the queen shouted and grabbed Diodoras arm, dragging him through the forest, the bishops quickly chasing after them… well one of them the other was immediately speared through the stomach and torn apart in a torrent of flesh, her organs staining the blood-red armour.

The being let out a guttural roar, enraged… hungry for blood, they would not escape. He had no time to idly hunt the last bishop instead she had a larger circular hole carved out of her chest with a well-placed dragon shot, the green energy cutting through her like a hot knife through butter. Its green slits narrowing on them as it bound after them as a predator would prey.

The thumping of Diodora heart raged in his ears, drowning out noise as he was mindlessly dragged by his queen. Her pupils were wide as she glanced around the forest, trying to keep an eye out for the enraged dragon.

"Diodroa we need your brother! Call Lord Ajuka!" his queen practically screamed between pants as they tried to run through the forest to put distance between them. The heir was still shocked but a slap from his queen roused him.

"GET LORD AJUKA HERE OR WE ARE GONNA DIE!"

He quickly casts a spell trying to contact his brother… the moments were dragging a while... they kept running

"Brother…"

That was the only word Ajuka heard before the screaming. Diodora's queen was bent over, a fist reaching right through her yanking her internal organs, he could see tracers of her intestines, chunks of her liver and her heart which beat once or twice before being squished in the dragon's hand.

Diodora began screaming like a small girl, before a tail clasped around his neck and choked the air out of him, his eyes flickering, darkness closing in on him. His body going limp…

The cladding and thudding of scale mail against the floor of the Khaos Brigade Base, rivulets of blood dripping down and staining the floor. People leaning or straight out scampering out of the path of the hulking form of the Blood Dragon Emperor. One of his arms cradling the nun the other dragging the limp form of Diodroa across the floor.

The small form of Le Fay Pendragon and her wizard hat bobbing around the corner as she came upon the form of the Blood Dragon Emperor. She waved her hand animatedly at him and giving a big grin, a sharp contrast to the impassive helmet of the Blood Dragon.

"You are back!"

The clanking of the scale mail stopping as it tilted its head down to stare impassively at her through, a drop of blood rolling down the armour before dripping down onto the floor.

"I am, please take care of the Nun"

It spoke before gently lowering her body onto the floor, Le Fay flicked her wand and clasped the nun with an invisible force. She would nod to the request.

"I will, but Vali wishes to see you"

The being grunted before continuing to drag Diodora's body.

"Later"

Lefay merely nodded before skipping off to take care of Asia. Waving her hand at the Blood dragon emperor.

"Catch ya later Draggy!" She called in a singsong voice before heading off, lots of the newer members of the Khaos Brigade were shocked and flabbergasted, to say the least. They had all heard the horror stories of the Blood Dragon Emperor he was used for fear… but recruitment people felt more comfortable with someone fighting on their side. Especially when the most bloodthirsty of them were used against their most hated enemy.

The scene was not helped by the unconscious devil being dragged without damn care across the stone-cold floor. Everyone watched, in shock and some in morbid fascination as Diodora was dragged across the floor. He edged closer and closer to his lair, reaching forward and dragging apart the large steel door, the hall suddenly invaded with a scent of blood and decay, causing a few to cough. Some of those not used to it retch a bit but those who knew turned away or outright ignored it.

Diodora would be roused awake by this stench, staring into the room…. The screaming began.. filling the halls with his screams of fear, terror and death… like an animal knowing its time had come… and its time was limited…

The metallic door shut, silencing his screams for eternity.

I had this around for a while so said why the fuck not post it!
