Authors notes: In this chapter I wanted to do something really special for this chapter and shine the light on the villains of the story. Or at least three of the villains anyway. Basically Samael's forces are separated into factions who are composed different types of forces. Each generals are given control of a faction. There are five generals for the five types of forces on his side. Akumu controls the vanguard unit which is a mix of omni heartless, dark ones, nobodies and occasionally just normal humans with unusual powers and stamina.

Chapter 11

High on top of the cliff pyro was freaking out about what eh had just say. "WHAT THE-, WHEN DID-, HOW DID-?!" while he was panicking he didn't notices the two figures walking towards him. "What the hell am I going to do? If any of the others find out about this I'm screwed."

"Yo! Flame head what's up." he heard behind him as the jumped in surprise "Wow. You really are jumpy today aren't you." turning around he saw two men wearing black clothing. One wearing a long coat with a suit and armor underneath. And the other wore a sephiroth like coat with the armor showing. Both of them had brown hair but while the suits hair was in a neat fashion the vampire coats one was wild. Glaring at the younger of the two he spoke in a irritated if slightly nervous voice.

"What the hell are you doing here Raigen?!" the wild haired one looked up at the sound of his name and smiled "I just came by to see how things were going fire foot." he said smiling at how irritated pyro was from being called one of his many made up nicknames. "Stop calling me that!!"

"Oh. Would you rather I call you flame head, or maybe fire flinch, or perhaps torchy…Oh I know! The Flaming fuc-" before he could finish the neater dressed on hit him over the head. "Ow! That fucking hurt you bas- (Another hit) Ow!! Stop hitting me assho- (another hit) Quit it Gairen!!!" raigen said to his older brother staring down at him.

"Don't use swear words to describe friends." he said looking down at him more intensely "And even if you do. Make sure they find it funny as well" he said motioning to pyro who had looked ready to kill someone just moments ago.

"jeez…I was just kidding." raigen said rubbing his head and turning back to pyro "So. What had you prancing around here anyway?" he said walking to the edge and looking at the newly grown forest.

"WOW! Where'd that come from?" raigen said a little curious at the size of the trees. "and why the heck are the leafs purple?"

"A good question." gairen said thinking "Raigen, go around the cliffs and see just how much of these things have popped up." nodding raigen dashed off the cliff and began jumping from cliff to cliff. Making sure he was far enough away not to hear he turned his attention to pyro.

"So who do think it was." he said in a serious voice staring daggers into pyro

"Hard to say really." pyro said thinking just as hard as gairen "I know who it was who did this, But weather another general ordered him to do this, or if he was acting on his own is a mystery to me." he said suddenly looking curious "So why did you send raigen on that mission anyway?"

"You know how he is." gairen said picking up a rock and examining it "he's like a trigger happy gun. Once he gets a target…" satisfied with the rock he throw it in the air and waited till it stopped going up. Beginning to fall off the cliff it suddenly exploded in a flash of light. Gairen to illustrate a point had pulled out his gun blade and shoot the rock"…he just goes after it. Even if he gets killed in the process." holstering the gun blade he looked back to pyro. "Do you get it now?"

"I think so. Your saying that your brother is an idiot who charges in head long into everything." pyro said bluntly as gairen sweat dropped "Well…yes. If you want to put it bluntly." just then raigen jumped onto the cliff. "We have a problem." he said catching his breath.

"What kind of problem?" gairen said arching a brow "All the canyon entrances are sealed off except for one!"

"Only one? Are you sure?" pyro asked concerned "Very disconcerting. If they didn't want them to reach the security center then they would have sealed off al the entrances. So why would they leave one open unless…" he said his eyes suddenly widening "How big is the opening?"

"Not that big. About the size of a one man pathway but it does empty into a trench."

"how big." he asked even more concerned then before. "About twenty feet. Why?" but pyro was already on the move,

"We have to hurry." he said running over to the open entrance with raigen and gairen in tow "Why? What's going on."

"There heading into a different trap. And if they get killed by another enemy akumu's going to have all our heads."

After just getting out of the jeep alive the group set out to find a different path. All the large entrances were blocked by a wall of thick trees. Then by chance they had stumbled across a small opening in the rock face. Large enough for them to fit one at a time. Now they were going through with shijima at the front and vash at the back.

"Ow! Xehanort stop pushing!"

"It's not me! You're the one who keeps stopping."

"Well if yumi wouldn't-"

"I only keep stopping because shijima does it first."

Be quiet! Remember we're in enemy territory now so we have to be cautious."

With that they began t make there way forward slowly until they reached a big opening that was twenty feet across and went on the rest of the way. Stopping they began to look around cautiously.

"I don't like this." shijima said looking around and holding his hand on kageyaiba. "It's to quiet here. And why aren't there trees here as well?" soon he got his answer as the walls started turning black.

"What's happening!?" vash yelled pulling out his gun "What are those things?"

"Neo shadows." shijima said drawing his sword "It's a trap move!!!" but it was to late as a barrier appeared and blocked the rest of the path. Soon they were fighting as hard as they could against the Howard's of different heartless. Soon they began to tire out.

"(breathing heavily) this isn't good." shijima said unleashing another of his shadow fire attacks from his sword and using up more of his magic. "There not stopping."

"I'm out of either!" yelled yumi slashing the heartless and having more take there place. "and there's only a few potions left." she yelled panicing.

"Well make it!" yelled kyo defeating five heartless only to have ten more attack him. "Don't worry."

Vash who had run out of bullets for his pistol was using his hidden gun to try to at least provide cover for the others while running away from the heartless. Soon they were all exhausted and back against the barrier. With only a few potions left each of them took one and got ready to go out fighting. Just as they were about to take the potions something slammed into the heartless and exploded. They were caught off guard as the barrier suddenly disappeared sending them flying and dropping the potions.

Looking up they saw raigen he fly down and pulled his kusarigama(sickle with chain attached) to him and land perfectly on the ground. Getting up he looked at the already multiplying army of heartless "You guys suck." he said whipping his sickle at one of the heartless masses and caused another explosion. "It's heartless like you that give humans like us a bad name." and with that he begun slicing them up like they were nothing. Soon there were only a few left. Meanwhile the others were getting up trying to make sense of the whole thing.

"Who the heck is this guy and why's he helping us!?" kyo asked confused

"That's what I'd like to know." shijima said getting steady "Dammit used to much energy on the small fries."

"Hey. What are you waiting for get going!" yelled raigen staring at trhem like they were a bunch of weirdo's "By the way, the names raigen."

"I'll remember that!!" yelled kyo thinking he had answered his question. "I was talking to the girl." he said as all of them face faulted.

"Get lost you loser!!!" yelled yumi pissed that they had been saved by him.

"You could at least thank me." he said as a heartless was about a attack him from behind but was shot by a light blue magic blast causing raigen to jump. Looking up he saw gairen spinning and destroying all the heartless in a barrage of magic blasts from his two gun blades.

"I could've handled them on my own you showoff." raigen said as gairen had a big anime vein over his head " If it wasn't for me you would have been just another heartless!" he yelled aggravating his younger brother. "THAT'S IT!!! You and me right now!" he said as both of them got ready to fight "Hey!" they were interrupted right when they were about to attack by shijima and the others glaring at them.

"Why did you help us?" he asked coldly his sword still drawn.

"That's a stupid question." raigen said smiling "We couldn't just watch you die like that. Then there would've been no point in akumu even showing up."

"You know where akumu is!" yelled shijima angrily as he got ready to attack "Tell me or I'll-" no sooner had he been ready to attack then he had been stabbed through by five green spiked rods. He gasped as they suddenly ripped out of his chest leaving five small bleeding wounds.

"What the hell was that!!?" yelled kyo getting ready to fight whatever it was that did that.

"Hang on I'll get the- Oh no the potions!!!" yelled yumi as the dropped potions were sucked underground. Then out of nowhere a bunch of vines popped out of the ground and wrapped themselves around all of them. Slowly something began raising out of the sand.

"Looks like I missed your heart." said the figure raising from the sand. "And I hoped I'd get to finish this quickly." The man had long green hair that was currently wrapped around everyone except shijima and what looked like actual plants growing out of him and making clothes. Vines ran all over his body to look like muscles and he seemed to be rooted into the ground. "My name is nightshade by the way."

Trying to steady himself only made him cave in and cough up blood. "I'm surprised you can even move seeing as how your bloodstream is filled with my poison" raising up his hand his fingers were dripping a clear liquid. "Now then. I've told you my name. and now it's time to die!" raising up his arm suddenly all the vines that had tied everyone up were slashed into a million pieces letting everyone free. Turning around to late his arm was suddenly cut off in an instant causing him to reel in pain.

"Looks like you need to spend less time talking. And more time practicing nightshade" said pyro sheathing his rapier. "Why you insignificant little insect." nightshade yelled reeling his other arm back getting ready to extend it when a chain suddenly wrapped around him. At the same time someone shot him about five times. In all the commotion kyo, yumi, xehanort and vash picked shijima up and carried him to safety.

As he drifted in and out of consciousness he felt himself being pulled into his old memories. He knew the poison was taking affect and causing him to slip into a coma but would do nothing to stop it The last thing he saw before blacking out was the face of a young woman with black hair in a kimono in front of a grass house.

"Ayaze."

End chapter 11

First off let me get one thing straight .Nightshades name isn't referring to an attack that involves darkness but rather the plant nightshade. Anyway back to the story, Today chapter shows us a little about Akumu's followers and what there like. They are a mix of heartless, nobodies, and humans like gairen and raigen. And they aren't super bad like some of there fellow partners in crime but rather people who have each had there own diverse past that lead to how and where they are now.
