This goes out to UTHEMAN who was a huge inspiration, Thank you again.
I know this has been forever since I updated this but hey I was busy. BTW there is death in this one, it is not gorey in my eyes but I was just warning you readers
Language of the dead
"Dude, How in the freaking world did you not pick up on this?" A higher pitch voice said in the man's smart phone. "I do not want a repeat of what happened in London, where you let those ghosts get away."
"Ma'am the singles where screwy. As if the government was trying to hid them," the man said to the voice.
"The governments of north America have decided not to hinder us," the voice squawked "Now go to that sorry dust bowl of an excuse for a town and get those ghosts or God so help me I will make you join them." then there was a loud click on the other end. The twenty some year old man looked at his phone, he sighed. What had he gotten himself into. Easy money his roommate said, no danger he said… look where that got him. Six feet deep, now he himself was on a fast track to join his roomy.
He opened his lab top to see his background, he snickered it was the Ghostbusters' logo. He never would have thought being a fan-boy to a cartoon would land him a real ghost hunting job. It was ironic really, he went to college to be one of the "actors" on a hunted house documentary. Now he really was hunting ghosts, a few clicks later he had his tickets to Jasper.
It is not a good thing to make "The Bishop" wait, he began to pack.
It felt the coldness seeping into its restrained limbs.
"He will fail you, you know that right. He is not ready to be a king," a voice rasped in the darkness of the damp cell. "He's not you, he did not grow up knowing his purpose in life. But you did lover, why hand over your commanding position to him." the voice spat out with disgust.
Jackson did not take away my position as a queen! You took it away, It lashes out at the voice. As its rage drank in the cell's intoxicating darkness. Hate, Malice, Anger, Intimidation hated to be imprisoned, there was no to cause discord here.
"Marcy, Marcy my dear lover. The dead should rule the dead not have a living heir. I was giving you a gift, letting you see your kingdom from the view of your subjects," the voice rasped again.
Foolish demon! It does not work that way, your kind will never understand.
"I understand perfectly, you became Map. A fearless pawn, but a gutless leader. Marcy would have taken the chance to be queen."
Marcy is no more, she was a coward just as you are a liar. We gut liars!
Edward the troops can not take much more of this. You said Commander Map had found the king why has she not anointed him. Mary called out to the second in command.
I do not know what happens with the Commander I do not keep tabs. We are not alone in the confusion our enemies are not without own problems. We just keep our side strong, like a story I once heard in Japan. 'No matter how strong the rock is the stream will wear it down to nothing in time' Just have faith Mary, Map will come through. the burly man hissed to the doubting woman.
She should have never gone, that child will always make mistakes. I leave you Edward, Mary hissed leaving the tent.
Harley, Quinn come here Mr. Teach hissed to the passing twins. He knew they would be perfect, their lives were never in history. However they impressed their arts to the whole world.
Yes sir, they responded in unison. What is it that you need.
Map, she has not reported in…The two twins looked at each other and smiled I fear foul play with the demon. Could you two go check on her. Look for a man made of metal our Commander was traveling with him. Rome will have most likely found him, please we crave her guidance.
Of course sir, the jester twins replied with a smile then bound off to the nearest portal to the living world.
Cliffjumper didn't like him, there was just something off about "Nicolas Darby". He for some reason did not fit the picture of the Darby family.
The mech puzzled as Map said that he was dead. Why would any good father lie to their child, or both of them. Then he heard the cawing of a raven, it was getting louder and seemed to be aimed at him.
Man of metal, you accompanied my mistress to meet our new king.
If you mean Map, then yes l took her to see Jack .
Did you see anything else, I fear my mistress has been taken by the demons. She released her soul to me. I being just a raven, cannot fight the demons but now you are whole you can fight. Rome cawed hanging his head low.
I am whole? That would mean that I should be released to my afterlife and not stuck here. That is what Map explained, unless there is another step. Cliff hissed to the black bird.
The king must release you, but Commander Map is in danger. Please help….
Man of metal, Rome and Cliff look to where the hiss had originated from. There stood two girls, identical twins from what Cliff could see.
Quinn, Harley why are you here? Rome cawed at the new comers.
Mr. Teach fears the worst and Mary is pressing for more command. We are here to help. They hissed in time, both looking Cliff up and down. Then looked at each other and giggled.
Well if we are going to get Map we should get going. With that he transformed, seeing the twins giggle even more as he opened his doors. Rome just cawed something untranslatable and flew in the mech. The twins climbed in after.
So any ideas on where she is…. Cliff asked the twins who simply shrugged
Alcatraz, Map's uncle's owned it once. Rome cawed sitting on Quinn's arm.
Well then let's bust her out
Bud sat there waiting for the newbie to get of the damn plane. What was the kid's name Chuck or something, the old pot-bellied man really didn't care.
"Sorry sir I…" scrawny kid said running up to Bud
"Stop your jibber jabber Kid, The Bishop wants these ghouls silenced." With that the odd pair left the airport for the "Home base" of G.R.S.
Nicolas watched as the ghost car drove off with the jester twins. How he despised those two, but with out the raven Rome or the car to report him. He smiled and snuck out of the small suffocating house the pitiful humans called a home. That motorcycle was one like the car. It is alive, he had seen them before but they were the flying machines. They had red eyes, he could see their dark souls only a twisted sense of good remained.
If the mane had recruited they enemies of the flying ones, perhaps he should get his own.
Nicolas felt his essence turn to a breeze, now to find the fliers. There was a large dark ship, no human could have made that. He regained a physical form, when a faceless one dared to attack him. Turning he looked at his newest meal, lunging he grabbed its energon core. Feasting another came up to him, this one had a face.
"What are you organic," it asked showing its full face to him. It, well Nicolas presumed it was a "he" only had one eye, the other looked as if it had been removed forcedly and patched. His outline glowed a slight lilac color, he was corrupting.
Perfect thought Nicolas, "I am looking for the one who commands this vessel."
"That does not answer my question…"
"Silence dead or I will erase you from existence." Nicolas shouted, the robot flinched. Nicolas looked at the mech, the flinch was not like him. "Take me to the one who commands this vessel."
The mech growled, but didn't argue anymore. He just started to walk away, Nicolas followed his true form showing. The four muscular arms stretching across the hall, each of the four eyes blinking separate of their match. The doors opened to revile the bridge of the ship, had Nicolas had lips he would smile.
"What the Pit are you?" A voice hollered.
"I am the embodiment of humans' fear, you have made me stronger. But my enemies have implored yours for help. The boy Darby, you have heard of him, correct?"
"Jack, yes I know that human. He is your enemy, he's a worm."
"I agree, how ever it is the sister of Jackson that is truly the rival. Jack is a figure head for them, a boy king. You have loss troops, I can use your dead as my troops."
"Why would I do that, I to can use my dead."
"Not all your dead, in fact one lead me to you. Only their essence is what I need, you use their bodies. I use souls, or whatever equivalent. I rid you of humans that help your enemies, let you have the physical realm of this planet. I get two of your dead troops to kill the one that sides with my enemy."
"Breakdown and Skyquake, I give you permission to command them…"
"Fear itself, is my true name, but to humans now I am Nicolas Darby. Jackson's "father" that boy will fall, I will enjoy devouring him."
Megatron looked at the large demon, he smiled. This thing was a fool, the autobots would find a way to fight it. Megatron truly had nothing to lose in this deal."
"Marcy wake up."
Marcy is no more, the woman known as Marcy Darby perished eight years ago
"Lies"
The dead tell no tales, release me I wish to gut the snake that is here. Toni growled at the apparition. Who simply growled back, then a green mist coated the wall.
CAWWW, "WHAT" It watched as Rome attacked the demon. Then twins following the raven, who grabbed the demon's arms and held it down.
Mistress, your soul. A glowing orb came from the raven and into Its chest. Map was back, she watched as Harley let go of Toni and pick her restrain's locks. Mr. Teach always knew who to send, their most loyal escape artists.
My sword. Quinn grabbed it as Toni was back up. You were never all too smart Toni, you said you loved me but then you murdered me. Now it is time I got justice, you were never caught. You died by a natural cause but now I will gut you like a fish.
"Marcy lets talk about this," the demon said trying to back out of the cell
There is nothing to talk about. My master once told me a story about my sword. He said that when it was presented to him by his father. He took it out of the sheath and the air around it bled. He forever tested its sharpness by cutting cross the wind to make it bleed. When it was given to me, I instead tested on demons. It is time to make sure it is sharp. Map lunged and the blade went thought the demon's chest. And in one swoop Map brought it down to the demon's midsection. Kicking the demon off of the blade it burst in to ash.
Good riddance.
Love it, Hate it, Review it please.
