Chapter 13: The Battle of the Mississippi-Part 1
Angmar POV
(Earth)
The sun hadn't even risen yet when Angmar finished his stare into Chaos's camp. What he discovered caused him great distress. He immediately called his father. After but a moment, Order answered,
"What is it my son?"
"Father, Mobius has been working for our enemy this whole time."
Order's face remained stoic but his eyes betrayed the rage he was hiding,
"How do you know this?"
"I used my powers to see all things. And I also know how Chaos formed his new army, he altered the flow of time on Tamriel."
"It matters little, you will slaughter all who oppose you. I have the utmost faith in your abilities to lead the army to victory."
"I thank you for your words father, by the time the sun sets two more of my betrayers will be in the underworld."
"So Mobius is among the beings in the camp?"
"Yes father, I'll send her head to you once I've completed my work."
"Be swift Angmar, Order out."
Order then cut the transmission, leaving Angmar with a strategy he thought might work. After some thought Angmar simply turned invisible, gave his orders to his commanders and walked towards Chaos's camp. Once he arrived Angmar glanced back to his camp to ensure the army was in battle formation, with his Knights on the right flank, his National Guardsmen on the left and the Uruks in the center. The Arbiter and his Sangheili were 100 meters ahead of the formation building fortifications. Once he was sure his army was prepared for the fight Angmar continued deeper into Chaos's camp ready to wreak havoc among the army stationed there. Angmar heard horns blow as Chaos's army noticed Angmar's massive force across the river. Using the hustle and bustle of soldiers moving about to get in formation, Angmar revealed himself in full battle armor. The soldiers around him stared in shock. Angmar simply smiled cruelly and drew 'Desolation'.
"Time to die."
Angmar said calmly. Then he exploded into movement, hacking and slashing his way through the soldiers surrounding him. With the nearest soldiers dead or dying, Angmar raised his left arm and willed Chaos's artillery to explode, sending shrapnel everywhere. One rather large piece smashed into Angmar, but he simply brushed it aside like it was made of paper and continued ever deeper into the camp searching for the two beings that deserved to die the most. As he walked, a survivor was desperately trying to stay in contact someone,
"My Lady, Angmar is here, he just destroyed our artillery!"
Angmar simply grabbed the soldiers armor and stared into his eyes. The fear Angmar saw made him laugh aloud. The soldier was momentarily stunned. Angmar stopped laughing and head-butted the soldier's face, destroying his features, killing him instantly. Angmar threw his lifeless body away from and continued.
Thalia(Omega) POV
Omega jumped awake at the sound of a massive explosion and her communicator going off. She immediately answered,
"What is it!?"
The soldier on the other line kept glancing behind him as he said,
"My Lady, Angmar is here, he just destroyed our artillery!"
Just then the soldier was lifted out of view of the communicator, and Omega heard the coldest laugh she'd ever heard. The laugh suddenly stopped and she heard the sound of metal striking and breaking bone, then the soft thump of a body hitting the ground. Omega quickly dressed for battle and ran outside to confront her cousin. On the way she ran into Mobius,
"My lady."
Mobius said. Omega simply nodded and said,
"We have to at least drive Percy off if we are to survive this."
"Agreed, let's do this together."
The two immortal girls then drew their respective weapons, Omega her spear and shield and Mobius her twin daggers, and charged towards the sound of combat. Finding Percy wasn't difficult, they found him with his back turned to them. He seemed to have just finished a mental conversation with someone. Percy sensed them and said,
"Bianca, Thalia. So nice for you to finally join the party."
Percy then drew a horn and blew it, producing the most dread inducing note anyone had ever heard. Right after Percy stopped, a massive war cry was heard across the Mississippi River as Percy's army charged forwards to engage the remaining soldiers who had been able to reach their deployment areas. Percy then dropped the horn and gripped his sword with both hands,
"I will enjoy the feeling of killing the both of you. It will bring me one step closer to vengeance."
Mobius suddenly stepped forwards,
"Percy stop! You must realize deep down that what you're doing is evil! What happened to your loyalty!?"
Percy snapped back,
"Don't you dare speak to me of loyalty you traitorous animal. We all know my loyalty died the day all my once friends and loved ones turned their backs on me and cast me out."
Percy was surprisingly speaking in such a calm tone. Mobius then continued,
"Percy, Order is using you so he can take over the galaxy! You need to come back to us! Chaos loves you, your real father loves you!"
Mobius chocked up then continued,
"And I love you!"
Tears were streaming from Mobius's face. Omega looked over at Percy expecting him to at least betray some emotion through his body language, but the once great, selfless hero remained as unmoved as ever. Percy spoke,
"Mobius, I don't trust a single word you say. Now it's time for you to die!"
Percy then exploded out of his stance and swung his massive sword down towards Mobius's head but Omega intercepted it with her shield, saving Mobius's life.
Angmar POV
When Thalia blocked Angmar's strike at Bianca, Angmar couldn't help but smirk at Thalia's attempt to save Bianca's life. Angmar drew his sword back and used his left hand to send a massive shock wave out towards Thalia, sending Chaos's new commander flying through the air. Omega smashed through a tent, collapsing the structure on top of her. Bianca used Angmar's blast to attack him with his guard down, but Angmar was to fast. Angmar simply blocked the knife thrust with his sword blade and punched Bianca with his other hand, breaking her nose instantly. Bianca fell back from the force of Angmar's punch. Angmar gripped his sword with both hands, rotated it so the blade faced the ground and prepared to thrust the blade into Bianca's chest. Thalia, in desperation, threw her spear at Angmar, piercing his right greave. Angmar mentally groaned with pain and pulled the spear out. Angmar gripped the spear, and threw it with incredible accuracy, impaling Omega's left foot into the ground. Angmar then returned his focus to Bianca and said,
"Poor Bianca, I so wish you had remained loyal to my father and myself. I hope you suffer for your betrayal."
Angmar then thrust 'Desolation' downwards, piercing Bianca's chest and killing her instantly. Angmar then mentally teleported Bianca's broken body to his father and stalked towards Omega.
"Percy Jackson!"
Angmar swiftly turned 180 degrees and raised his sword at the newcomer's voice. Once he lay eyes upon her, for the first time since he left earth, Angmar felt longing.
"Percy! You have to come back! You must deep inside you that what your doing is evil! You're better than this; what happened to your undying loyalty to your friends!?"
Angmar removed his helmet so she could his eyes,
"Annabeth, my loyalty to my so called friends died the day you all betrayed me. And stop calling me Percy Jackson, the person who had that name died centuries ago."
Annabeth had tears as she said,
"Percy, we're sorry! We were deceived, all of us. The gods, the camps and even you! We love you!"
Annabeth paused then continued,
"I love you... Please you have to stop this crusade of yours and come home. I know you're hurting but you have to trust me. Please."
Angmar was almost swayed by her words... Almost.
"Liar! You have no right to ask me to return to the people that left me to die after I was framed. You don't deserve my forgiveness, now time to die."
Angmar raised his sword and was about to charge forwards when his communicator went off,
"My lord! Our forces are being pushed back! The army needs it's Prince!"
Angmar lowered his sword and said,
"Sorry Annabeth, I must finish slaughtering Chaos's army. When next we meet, you won't survive."
Angmar then teleported to where his lookout point was located. Once he arrived he saw just how bad off his army was. The Knights of Angmar had been forced to dismount and were fighting off a phalanx of Chaos's pikemen, the Sangheili were encircled by a battalion of heavy swordsmen and fighting to the death. The National Guardsmen were holding for now, as their M-4s gave them a range advantage over Omega's melee troops. Angmar gazed across the battlefield to best see which force most needed his help. Deciding on the Sangheili, Angmar teleported to the Arbiter's side.
"Hail Arbiter! How goes the fighting?"
"Not well my lord, many of my warriors have fallen to the enemy."
"Don't worry Arbiter, I will ensure your people are vastly rewarded when the war is over."
"You are to kind my lord."
Angmar simply nodded and charged into the fight, barreling through one swordsmen and slashing another in half at the waist. Angmar then decided to try to pull the encircled Sangheili back towards the National Guard firing line. Angmar called to the Arbiter,
"Arbiter get your troops to form up so we may fall back!"
"Yes lord, your will be done!"
The Arbiter began ordering his troops back as a massive dragon landed in the midst of the Sangheili. The force of the beast's landing knocked Angmar off his feet. Angmar quickly got up and engaged the dragon so the Sangheili could escape. With the dragon distracted, the Sangheili successfully fought their way through Omega's forces, and took cover behind one of the NG Bradley Fighting Vehicles. Angmar was to busy with the dragon to see all this but he sensed it and clambered on the dragon's shoulder and slashed at its neck, leaving a large gash in the beast hide. Blood oozed from the wound as Angmar heard over comms,
"Lord, our Bradleys are ready to light that shit up. I suggest you get out of there."
"Roger that Captain, commended fire. I'll keep it distracted."
"Hooah sir."
Angmar heard the armored vehicles begin firing their 20 millimeter cannons at the dragon, each round smashing into the dragon's hide riddling it with holes. Angmar leapt off the dragon's bullet riddled body and landed just as the dragon keeled over and died. Angmar called over comms,
"Good call Captain, how fares your ammunition?"
"My Lord, our ammunition won't hold much longer. We need a resupply or we will out of this fight fast."
"Roger that, have your men hold their position as long as you can. I must assist my Knights in battle."
"Yes my Lord."
Angmar then teleported to his Knights to assist them in their struggle to survive. Once he arrived, Angmar called to Sauron,
"What happened!? The Knights were supposed to have smashed through the enemy's left flank!"
"My Lord, we ran into some problems. Such as this massive phalanx ahead of us. Their spears killed our horses. My Lord, we lost 12 men in the charge."
Angmar seethed with anger and simply threw the entire enemy phalanx hundreds of feet in every direction with his powers. Angmar then turned to Sauron,
"There you go, problem solved. Now charge forwards men, we have yet to win this battle!"
His men all shouted a war cry and charged into a battalion of Omega's axemen. The Knights of Angmar slashed and hacked their way through the enemy that was in front of them until their enemy lay slain upon the field of battle. Angmar noticed his soldiers were exhausted from the constant fighting they'd been doing since early that morning, so he ordered them to form up and hold their position as Angmar himself continued on.
