Drake looked down from his thrown room listening to each of the Zodiacs recount their stories of success and destruction. Drake nodded in satisfaction

'I am indeed most pleased with all of you my Zodiacs. You have all stuck to your mission and completed them flawlessly. Not only does this make our names strike fear into peoples hearts, but it also gains us unimaginable amount of profit' Drake told them

'Profit? What Profit master?' one Zodiac asked

'Hey don't tell me you all thought I sent you on those missions just to make people fear us now. Believe me I enjoy watching pain and suffering as much as the next villain but it isn't enough to make me waste your talents. No you see all those missions I sent you one were missions who had hired us. When there are people they cannot get rid of, and their prepared to pay us the right price, they can hire us to do it for them' Drake explained

'You mean we've been like mercenaries sir?' Yamazaru asked

'Precisely Yama. Now adding up all the profit we've gained from your mission lets just say we make Bill Gates look poor' Drake said deviously

'An excellent strategy my lord. But now we have the money what is the next phase of our plan?' Usagi asked

'Ah I knew you'd catch on quick Usagi. Yes we are indeed moving on to phase two. However these plans are for now to be kept secret to you all except the Four Zodiac Anikis. So could everyone else please leave?' Drake said politely, however the Zodiacs knew he wasn't asking, he was demanding, and they couldn't go against his orders

eight of the twelve Zodiacs left the room leaving four left. Amongst those four was Yamazaru the monkey Darkside, and to his left the Dragon, Snake and Rooster Darksides. These were the Zodiac generals, referred to as the Anikis, the strongest four in the twelve

'Anikis, we have reached an important stage in my master plan. It has been three months since I awakened you all from your deep sleep and made you my servants thanks to this stone tablet' Drake said while lifting a stone tablet almost exactly the same as the one Nukid stole

'This tablet is one of three tablets in this world. If one is to hold all three he will gain perfect knowledge of Darkside technology. You twelve are the accomplishment of this tablet. I currently hold that same tablet and have decided to do some experimenting'

'What kind of experimenting sir. You know such talk would make Nezumi scream with excitement' the Rooster Darkside said about another Zodiac who wasn't present

'Indeed if he was here he wouldn't shut up about it, but that's not the real reason why I'm only telling you four. There is a much bigger reason' Drake told them

'And what is this master?' the Snake Darkside asked

'They say you can't have too much of a good thing, well there right. I plan to create my own Manufactured Darksides just like you twelve. Imagine an army of Darkside who would never betray me. Nothing could stop me'

'But Master to do that you would need a living Darksides blood. A manufactured Darkside must have the blood of a darkside for it to be born' the Dragon Darkside asked

'You are correct Doragon. Furthermore the power of the Darkside who gives the blood effects the manufactured Darkside itself. I gave some of my blood to all of you and your powers tripled, but as this is an experiment I want to use the blood of an unusual Darkside' Drake explained

'And where will we find him?' Yama asked

Drake smiled an evil grin 'Have you ever heard of the Darkside named Shade?'

There were many things that were simple insane, and one of them was to enter Shades fortress. Not only was it crammed with Grunts and Jackals but it was the home of the Darkside Shade. Oh and the Red team was there too, but they weren't really a problem

However walking right to the front door were two masked Darksides like it was some hotel

On the left stood a Darkside with a tiger mask on with a yellow coat

On the right stood a Darkside with a sheep mask on and a pink coat

As they walked to the door they came across the Red team who seemed to be coaching a group of Grunts. Next to Sarge was a scarecrow painted in blue and looked a lot like a blue soldier

'Okay let's try this again, Blue is bad, BAD. Let's say it together now' Sarge said trying to teach the Grunts but only got dumb stares

'It's no use Sarge if you ask me they're all colour blind' Grif commnted. Simmons snickered

'Holy crap is your sister a Grunt then' Simmons laugh. Grif turned angrily to them

'You wanna say that again, my sister is not a Grunt!!'

'No but she's one hell of a whore I tell ya' Sarge commented

'Hey!!' Grif whined

'Um hello' One of the Zodiacs called out. All the Grunts and Reds turned to them

'Who the heck are you guys?' Simmons asked

'And where did you get those fabulous coats from' Donut asked excitedly

Suddenly the Sheep Darkside started a high pitched laugh. She was obviously a girl

'That pink one has good fashion sense brother. Do we really have to kill him?' The Sheep asked

'Dear sister our orders were simple, obtain a sample of the Shades blood that was our mission. We're only gonna kill these guys because it's entertaining' the Tiger Darkside told her

'Oh right, well there's no way I'm gonna pass up on that, lets start Tara' the Sheep said while stepping forward. All the Grunts raised their rifles at her

'I don't know who the heck you are, but you have the balls to wear a sheep mask in front of me. I had a terrible experience with sheep in my youth. That to me is enough reason to kill you. FIRE!!'

The Grunts aimed there weapons at the Sheep Darkside and begin to fire, however before they hit her the Sheep is slowly covered by a white bubble like substance covering her whole body

Thousands of bullets hit the white coating as the Grunts shoot until they run out of bullets

'That'll teach you god damn sheep' Sarge said mockingly

'What did a sheep do to you that was so bad?' Donut asked

'Donut, in fear of you getting an orgasm out of it I won't tell you'

Sarge suddenly spotted something out of the corner of his eye. The white bubble like coating slowly released itself off of the girl revealing that not one bullet had hit her at all

'Wow I was expecting a lot more out of these guys' the Sheep Darkside sniggered

'Now Hitsuji it's wrong to steal. Give them back their bullets' Tara said

'O.k. brother' Hitsuji said amusingly. Suddenly bullets shot out of the coating at huge speed hitting the Grunts who fell like flies at the shots. The Reds too were hit by the bullets and they slumped to the ground

'Oh great we're gonna die' Grif groaned

'Looks like it' Simmons agreed

'Incredible, and I thought you guys were already pathetic' A cold voice said behind them

As quick as light a figure ran past the Reds and the dead Grunts and stopped right in front of Hitsuji

Shade had arrived

Hitsuji instinctively covered her body with the white coating again but Shade merely plucked his hand into the white coating and pulled out Hitsuji by the throat who choked underneath her mask. His physical strength was too much for the white barrier

'Interesting. You create a white barrier which protects you from attacks. Then you use this fluffy barrier to repel the attack. For a Darkside you are most unusual. However' Shade said gripping her neck even harder 'Your unique power can not protect you from me little girl'

'Then how about me' Tara proclaimed appearing behind Shade. Shade had no choice but to let go of Hitsuji as he blocked a punch from Tara

Shad attempted a punch back but before he could do so Tara disappeared and reappeared over Shade

'KURO CERO' Tara shouted and fired the Dark beam down towards Shade however Shade unsheathed Soul eater sword and easily blocked the beam. Tara then disappeared and reappeared a safe distance away from Shade with his sister in his hands

'Strange. By my estimations you're actually faster than I am' Shade pointed out

'Sounds to me like that's a way of saying you've lost' Tara said mockingly. Tara then ran at incredible speeds about to attack Shade

'Lose? You're quite mistake kid. You see you may be fast kid but…' Shade said closing his eyes in concentration

As soon as Tara was about to strike Shade he opened his eyes and shouted 'SPEED ISN'T EVERYTHING!! BLOOD AND IRON!!'

What Tara felt next was strange to him. In one second Tara felt like thousands of white hot blades had slashed every part of his body. Tara stopped dead in his tracks and collapsed in front of Shade who looked slightly disappointed

'Pathetic. You nearly annoy me as much as my accursed human half. I won't deny your abilities as Darksides are unusual. However it is the end of the road for you runts, I have won' Shad pronounced

'Indeed you have Mr Shade' A female yet sly and coil voice said

Suddenly of all things a long Snake pounced on Shade who only just manages to stop it with Soul eater. He uses his sword to push the large snake back and looks directly at the end of the serpent only to discover something strange

The large snake was connected to the shoulder of a Darkside who wore a Snake mask and Green coat. Four more snakes covered the Darkside around the back and shoulders of her

'I've heard many great things about you Shade, and you defeating my little brother and sister so easily proves this true' the Snake complimented

'I don't want you compliments, who the hell are you three, and what is your business here?' Shade snarled

'Now now Shade why talk about such trivial things when we can enjoy some friendly competition. As for who I am my name is Hebi the Snake Zodiac, and I assure you Sahde' Hebi smiled an evil grin 'I am twice as strong as these two put together!!'

Hebi launched all five sankes on her body at Shade who charged with Soul Eater…

Next Chapter will be Shade vs Hebi the Snake Darkside. How will this fight fair? Find out next chapter

To DM and Ranger again just would like to know how my interpretation of your Darksides are? I want to make them prcise so please tell me. Thanks
