In the place of Akame stood a red warrior.The being had a red helmet with a black area on the front.The helmet had small notches on top on both sides.The notches had small green spheres placed in them,mimicing eyes.Around the black space on the helmet was a yellow line running from the top corners of the head,down around the sides,and then connecting at the chin.The yellow stripe had many triangles facing inward,resembeling teeth.In the close bottom of the black area of the helmet, a small silver trapazoid shape sat etched to the visor.
The rest of the uniform was red.Going diagonally from the right shoulder of the new fighter was a sashe of two moderately thick streaks of silver.In the streaks of silver was yellow.The yellow area had black lines going in a zig-zag pattern.In one of the yellow triangles was the emblam of a red t-rex with green eyes.On the right shoulder was a piece of silver metal armor with three promante ridges on top and a thin red triangle in the center of it all.A belt of silver wrapped around the feminine waist of the uniformed being.On the very front of the belt was a small yellow box with a smaller bit of black in it.The emblem of a silver creature with red eyes,yellow teeth and three ridges on top of it's head were in the center.The hands of the figure had white gloves that went almost to the elbow.The ends of the gloves had a silver cuff around it.On the hands,metal plating with four spiked knuckles sat.To complete the uniform,a pair of lighter red boots with the same silver cuffs around the top were placed solidly on the gravl.
Everyone marvled at the new form.From inside her new helmet,Akame gave a smile.She looked down at her hands and clenched them,feeling some new power course through her body.
"This...this is amazing.",Dekon heard from Akame.
"Heh heh.I had a feeling you'd like it.Try taking it in slowly."
"Oh hell yeah!"
In a heartbeat Lubbock and Tatsumi were in front of of Dekon,their faces abright with joy and and excitment.
"I see you two are interested.Let's see what energems you two will get."
The two boys held out their hands.From their compartment,the green and black energems glowed brightly.The green gem shoot towards Lubbock and the black energem went to Tatsumi.
"Oh my god,this is gonna be awsome!",exclaimed Lubbock.
"I know what you mean.I can feel a new burst of energy going through me right now!These things will definatly help with the war against the Empire.",said Tatsumi.
"Cool to see you guys liking your new responsiblity.Now everyone else,come get your energem."
No one else ,except for Mine,wasted any time going over to Dekon.And soon,all of Nightraid had their own gem.Bulat had the Blue Energem,Shelle had the Purple Energem,Leone had the Gold Energem,and Mine had the Pink Energem.
"Great.Everyone good?"
In unison everone said yes.Tatsumi came up to Dekon and asked if they could morph.And with no hesitation,Dekon said yes.
Nightraid gathered in a horizantal line,ready to transform.And by coping Dekon and Akame's demonstration,they unleshed their new power.
The phantoms heads of the team's dinosaurs flew around them,and then with a final bite,they morphed.
Each member of Nightraid,except Leone, had the same uniform as Akame.But there were some major differences.For one,each assassian was the color of their energem.And the team's helmet's had some minor changes.
Lubbock's helmet was similar to Akame's except the green area on both sides formed a single pair of triangles pointing inward into the black visor.Shelle's helmet had a pair of small fins in the back.Mine's helmet had more of a protruding 'brow',shaping a slight frill.Three silver horns layed on the top of the helmet.Two horns mirrored each other on the top,while a third smaller horn layed above the black ,almost heart shaped visor.Bulat's helmet had a row of small vertical plates going down the top of the head.Tatsumi's helmet had only a vauge crest on the center of the head.
Leone's uniform stood out among her friends.It had gold,highlights of silver,and blue.Her sashe,instead of a black zig-zag pattern,had a large silver lightning bolt shape.And instead of one shoulder armor,Leone had two.On her left wrist was a device with a handle and a wing like blade on the side.On her back two wing like drapes hung off the two pieces of armor.
The whole team looked at themselves and to each other,giving compliments.Even Najenda got up from the sidelines and inspected her team's new getup.
"To think.There's an Imperial Arms out there with these capabilites."Najenda thought outloud.
"The Energems aren't Imperial Arms.In fact,their something even more powerful."
Dekon stated.
The silver haired woman gave a curious look."If their not Imperials',what are they?You said a creature gave them to you,so I assumed it some Danger Beast is what made the Energems in the first place.But if their not Relics,then what are they?"
"To be honest,I've only had the gems for a few days,so I can't say for sure what they are."
"N-nani!?"
"Yup.I honestly don't know how but...I know a little bit of what to do with the gems.I don't really have an explanation for-."
"Yo Dekon!"Leone called."How do we get out of these suits?"
"It's easy.Just relax your mind and think about powering down."
"Alright!Thanks for the info!"
Suddenly,Najenda wrapped her robotic arm around Dekon's neak,turning him away from the team.She then whispered to him.
"We'll finish this conversation later,okay?"
Dekon looked to Najenda and gave a nod.
Behind the duo,Nightraid powered down their ranger forms.The uniforms dissovled into colored particals,blowing away.
Leone sprung out of nowhere and wrapped her own arm around the grey haired teen.She casually pushed his face a bit too close to her bossom.Dekon's face went crimson with embarrasment as he tried to pull away from the blonde.
"Now that was quite the experience!Do these energem things do anything else beside transform us?"The blonde held her golden energem up to sky,where the sun's light made it glitter.
Dekon just shrugged."Beats me."
Leone looked at the teen with a sly smile on her face.
"Really?I thought you were an expert or something with these things."
"Believe me when I say I'm not completly sure of the abilites of the Energems."
Mine walked up to Dekon with her arms crossed."I not gonna lie.These energem thingies are impressive,and might give us a chance for our cause.But that doesn't mean I trust you.Not a whole lot anyway."
Najenda walked back inside,declaring everybody to enjoy the rest of their day.Once she left,Akame asked to train with Bulat,who happily agreed.Everone went on with the rest of their daily routine.
Dekon caught up to Mine and Lubbock and asked if they could give him a tour of the Capitol,since he was new and had no clue where everthing was.Mine refused but Lubbock was more then happy to help.
Soon the two left their base and to the Capitol,unaware of the danger and evil waiting...
0000000000
In the Capitol walls's,the citezens went about their day,wether it be their jobs and essablishments,or their daily routine.
One 'person' among the crowd was a bulky figure with a cloak draped over his body and head.The sheer mass of the being made many people look and stare.In their minds they asked why would anyone where a cloak at midday in spring?
The large being made it's way close to the protective walls of an extravagant palace.Once out of the sight of guards or citizens,the being leapt higher then any normal person.Once over the walls,the being moved stealthily around the palace grounds,unnoticed even in broad daylight.
The shady figure made it's way inside,avoiding guards at almost every turn.Even with such mass,the figure moved with the speed and balance of a acrobat.The being soon found it's way to it's desired destination.
At the other end of a long hall,two heavily armed soilders stood opposite of a grand door.With blinding speed and precision,the cloaked being knocked both guards unconcious without them even realizing.
The hooded being then entered through the doors.And within was the throne room,with two people inside.
One of the people in the room,sitting on the throne,was a young boy.The boy had medium length mint green hair and olive green eyes.He wore a blue,white and gold headdress,showing his status as most likely the king.The boy wore a purple shirt,with matching shorts.In the boy's possestion was a gold scepter with a cresent shape on top,with a milky blue orb in the center.
The other person was a fat burly man with white hair and a long white beard.The man wore a small crown with three black diamonds on it.He had eyes that seem to be filled with evil and corruption.The porky man wore a matching black shirt and pants.On top of his black shirt was a long grey coat with black fur around the collar.
"Wh-wha?! Who dares barge into the royal throne room of the mighty Emperor!?",bellowed the fat man,as he sunk his teeth into a piece of meat."Guards!Guards!"
"Don't bother.Your two soilders are knocked out,so they wouldn't interup our meeting."The hooded figure adressed himself.
The fat man was slack jawed."What!?"
"Fear not.I am here on peacful terms.I am here to speak with the leader of this city.Are you him?"
The young boy spoke out."I am the Emperor of this fair city and the ruler of the powerful Empire.May I ask who are you?"
"Excuse me,your highness",said the porky man,"but this person has not kneeled to you.I belive you should demand respect from this stranger."The man flashed a dark glare to the stranger.
"Of course,Prime Minister Honest."
The Emperor turned his head back to the stranger."Before we can talk,stranger,you must kneel.And please reveal yourself."
"Of course",the hooded being said,as it kneeled on it's right leg.
"Apologies"
"You may rise."
The being got back up and faced the child emperor.He then reached back across his shoulder and ripped his cloak off.And thing underneath terrified the Emperor and Prime Minister Honest.
Standing in front of them was a horrible creature with thick plates of yellow and green armor all over it's body,a slighty hunched back,a long stiff,terrible skull like head,and wicked black claws on it fingers.
"What type of unholy Danger Beast is this!?",exclaimed the prime minister.
"Fear not,royal Emperor and Prime Minster.I am not one of those savege creatures that lurk in your lands.Despite my apperance,I'm here to forge a temporary alliance."
"This beast talks!?What are you!?"
"I am nothing more then a messenger for my leader.I have travled from very,very far to speak with you."
The Emperor,obviously shaken by this monster in front of him,spoke."S-speak your message."
"My leader had important relics stolen from him.These relics are what protect his kingdom from enemy attack.But a theif stole them from him and then passed it to someone else before we could catch the first theif.Me,my fellow generals and our soilders have tracked the new holder of the relics here,in your kingdom,your highness.
The young royalty,seeing the politeness and urgency of the monster,eased up slighty.
"Continue."
"My leader wants the relics back,and has decided to form an alliance with the Empire.From my brief time in your city,I've learned you are at war.Is this correct?"
Prime Minister Honest spoke for his emperor."Yes.A rebellion is being held against the Emperor's fine kingdom."
"Then,with my king's generous help,we will aid your side.In return for the use of the king's soilders and generals to crush the rebellion,all my king asks is that the theif be caught and the relics returned."
"I see.",the prime minster thought.
The Emperor turned to his trusted advisor."Should we except this creature's offer,Prime Minister?"
'If this disgusting thing is telling the truth,this war would be over in a flash,depending on how good this king's soilders and fellow generals are.',thought the fat man,stroking his hand through his beard.
"My Emperor,I believe,with my utmost wisdom,that accepting the alliance with this fine creature's king would be good for the empire.It would strengthen our kingdom a hundred fold and end the war quickly."
"I see...Well then,I trust your wisdom,Prime Minister."
The young boy looked back to the monster,his face abright."Tell your king that I accept his offer of alliance."
"You've made a good choice,your highness.I will make contact with my leige inmmedietly.Before I do,my king has asked for a specific favor involving the theif."
"Oh?What is this favor?"
"My king dosen't want any sort of wanted posters of the thief,when I give you his description,as to not alert the him and make him leave the Capitol.
"Very well.May I ask for your name?"
The creature then stood up as straight as possible and made a salute before giving his name.
"My name is General Toxioskull of the Tyragus Empire,your highness."
