Chapter Twelve: The Legion is here
A woman was currently running through the forest in order to get away. She has long black hair wearing a kimono, but it looks damaged as she was loosing her stamina from running. The weird thing about her is that she has two golden horns sticking out of her head. This is Sayla, one of the nine demon gates of Tartaros. Currently, she was running while injured, and was holding some sort of book as if her life depended on it. The book had the word E.N.D on it.
As she thought that she managed to get away, a group of weird, monstrous distorted hound creatures came from the bushes behind. These creatures were known as felhounds, and they were giving chase to the etherious. Leading the felhounds was a tall fel lord. The fel lord had a giant axe looking weapon, and wore one armored shoulder pad, and had armored gloves, leggings, boots, a helmet, but still showed its face. It also had tall metal spikes coming out its back.
"No where to run mortal," The fel lord spoke to Sayla as the felhounds surrounded her. "Hand us the book, and we'll give you a swift death! Resist and you'll end up like the rest of your kind!" The tall demon warned the black haired woman.
Sayla could only glare at the fel lord as she holds on to the book tighter, refusing to give up the book of her kind's master. Even if she perishes, she will never give the book of E.N.D to… whatever these things were.
"I would rather die than give you our master!" Sayla shouted, as the felhounds came closer to her.
"Hmph, you chose your fate. Felhounds strike!" The fel hounds then move in for the kill, as Sayla closed her eyes for what was about to happened.
*SLASH*
Hearing a noise, Sayla opened her eyes to see the felhounds fall dead before her. This also confused the fel lord.
"What?" The fel lord questioned, as a figure then appeared in front of Sayla.
The figure had black spiky and messy hair, and had pale like skin. He wore armored leggings, armored boots, and armored gauntlets. The male also was wearing a black colored shirt, with an unknown symbol on the upper right chest of the shirt. He also had purple eyes, and had markings on his arms, body, and on the sides of his face, thought you can't see most of them due to his armor and clothing. Coming out of his head were two dark golden horns as well. On the side of his waist, showed a metal long sword covered in some sort of green flame. This was Azazel, the future son of Natsu and Sayla.
"Well, it appears that we're not the only ones who arrived here," The fel lord spoke at Azazel, who simply stared at the demon. "If you're here to die, than allow me to have the honor of ending you." The fel lord finished speaking as the demon began to walk toward Azazel.
All of a sudden, with quick speed, Azazel strike at the fel lord, appearing behind him as he put his sword away. As he does this, the Fel lord drops dead behind him.
Knowing that they were safe for now, he heads toward Sayla, who was watching him with caution. She didn't know who this person was, but even if he did help her, she didn't know if she could trust him. Feeling his energy, she noticed that he was a demon, but it was also different from herself and the other etherious. It felt more like what those creatures that attacked them gave off.
"Relax," Azazel spoke, "I'm not going to hurt you." The black haired male told her.
"Who are you, and why are you giving off the same kind of demonic energy like those monsters you killed?" Sayla demanded.
"That would be due to my father, who you happen to have one of his halves in your grip." Azazel responded in a calm voice.
Sayla eyes widen by his words. What did he mean by that? It was almost as if he's claiming that E.N.D is his father, but that can't be right! E.N.D is still sealed in the book!
"I will explain everything, but we need to get you medical care to treat those wounds." The male told her as he approached her.
"Why should I trust you?" The female demon wanted to know why she should put her trust in this stranger.
The demon male chuckled, "Well, isn't it right for a mother to believe their son in times like this?"
Sayla was shocked from his words, what on Earthland did he mean by that? Did he just, in a sense, call her mom?
"Like I said, I will explain everything. But we need to get you somewhere safe before more of them show up." He warned her.
"I demand an answer now! What do you mean by your words?" Sayla wanted to know. She had already lost her guild to those creatures, so she refuses to be kept in the dark about something that may explain why Tartaros was destroyed by those other kinds of demons.
"*Sigh* Well, there's no easy way to break this," Azazel began to say, before speaking once more. "But I come from the future, and you're my mom."
Sayla eyes went wide. This demon in front of her is her son? And he came from the future? Hang on, she remembered him saying that one of his father's halves were in her arms. So does that mean…
*THUD*
All of this was too much for the female demon to bear, that and the fact that she was also injured, so she fainted.
"Well, it's better than nothing I guess." Azazel spoke as he picked up Sayla, and grabbed the book of E.N.D. Then he took off with the female demon and his father's other half with him.
'I need to find the others, and we need to hurry! We weren't the only one sent back to this time!' Azazel thought to himself as he quickens his speed, knowing that the past was now in danger because of them.
'AT THE RUINS OF TARTAROS'
A massive lizard like creature with giant wings was overlooking his forces as they search for anything valuable in the ruins of this place. The giant lizard creature had six powerful limbs, being four legs and two arms. The creature also had two giant tusks coming from the sides of its mouth. It was wielding a double bladed polearm. This creature was known as an Annihilan, also known as pit lords. This one pit lord was named Agarzol, the leading demon of the forces here.
"Sir," A fel guard approached the pit lord, "The group we sent after the survivor have been destroyed. One of our scouts has noticed one of the world's princes have killed them and escape with the survivor, along with the book." The demon told the massive pit lord.
"BAH!" Agarzol responded, "Let them be for now. With a world ripe for the taking, we can worry about them later." The pit lord responded as it looked at a pack of felhounds devouring some of the corpses of the demons of tartaros.
"They can run all they can; this world will fall to the Legion!" Agarzol then turned to some of the mortal forces he had. "You all, if my memory serves right, the power source of that Mavis woman should still exist here. Find it and return it to me." Agarzol commanded, "With its power, we'll be able to open a massive portal for more of the Legion to come through."
"Yes master!" The group listens as they mounted up on the fel bats as they took off.
"This world, like so many others, will fall to the might of the Legion!" Agarzol then laughed, as the brutal demon's laughter was heard throughout the ruins of the demon guild.
'ELSEWHERE'
"I'll admit, this is a lot to take in." Kagura responded to Tom as they sat at a table.
After Millianna recovered from fainting from the fact that Tom was her son from the future, they went down to the rest of the female guild so Tom can explain his situation. When he told Kagura that she too had a daughter, and that both Kagura and Millianna get with his father Natsu, they both fainted again, much to the rest of the female's guild amusement. After waiting for them to wake up, he then finished his predicament to all of them.
"Yeah, but I think I understand." Millianna spoke as she looked at Tom. "So… we actually get with Natsu?"
"For the tenth time mom, yes you do." The brown haired male answered the cat like woman.
"But there are also others?" Kagura asked him, who replied with a yes.
"Well, honestly," Millianna spoke again, "As long as I'm with Natsu, I don't really care if there are others." She finished with a blush.
"…Yeah." Kagura replied with a blush as well.
"*Ahem*," Tom coughed, getting the two out of their thoughts; "Anyway, I need help to find my brothers and sisters. Are you willing to help me?"
"Of course we'll help you!" Millianna replied, "Not only are you my son, but I also want to know what your brothers and sisters are like."
"Millianna is right; we never turn down anyone who needs help. And I also want to meet your siblings as well." Kagura told him, as she also wanted to see what her daughter was like.
Tom merely smiled, "Thank you."
'It's no problem," Millianna told him, as she went to him, "I'm so glad that my future son grows to be so adorable as well!" She finished as she pinched Tom's cheeks.
"MOM!" Tom shouted in embarrassment, getting the female guild to laugh.
'AT SABERTOOTH'
"Are you serious?!" The rest of the guild shouted in surprise as they were told about Angelica and Yuge's situation.
After Yukino recovered from her fainting, and after the two future kids explain their problem with them, the three Sabertooth mages decided to aid the two to help find their siblings. When they got to the guild and told them of their situation, they were shocked to say the least.
"I can't believe that Yukino gets with Natsu and has a kid with him." Rufus spoke.
"I'm right here you know!" Angelica shouted at the blonde male, making him jump from her shouting.
"So are you all going to help us find their brothers and sisters?" Sting asked the rest of the guild.
"Of course we'll help; it still doesn't make it less shocking though." Orga replied.
Yukino was silent through the entire discussing, as she was still embarrassed from finding out that she gets with Natsu, and the fact that their daughter is near her. Yuge noticing her embarrassment went to her.
"Are you okay? You're not going to faint again are you?" Yuge questioned the celestial mage, getting her attention.
"What? Oh no, I won't faint again, hopefully. But it's still a lot to take in." She told the blue haired male.
"Don't worry, I get the feeling you're not the only one." Yuge told her as he watches her sister, who wanted something to eat again.
"If you say so." Yukino replied as they discuss their move.
Alright, the Burning Legion has made their appearance. The enemy is here, and now it's time for an explanation.
Alright, so for those who have no idea what the heck the Burning Legion is, it's basically an innumerable army of demons, infernals, and corrupted races bent on conquering and destroying all things. Since infernals are demonic constructs, they are classified as demons, and usually any corrupted race that joins the Legion are also classified as demons, so pretty much the Burning Legion is basically an army of demons from another dimension/outer space.
These demons can wield the power of fel magic/energy. These are demonic in nature, and are usually destructive and corruption as well. Of course, this doesn't mean that anyone who uses it is evil, as good guys have also wielded fel magic/energy that are good. Due to the fel magic/energy coming from the Burning Legion, this is why E.N.D, who in most if not all my stories is created with the use of fel, is more of a demon of the Twisting Nether than a demon like the etherious or any natural demons on Earthland like the ones of Galuna Island.
I hope I managed to explain this properly, as I'm not good at explaining things, but hopefully you all got the basic idea of it.
See you next time, whenever that will be.
