Chapter 9: Measure of a villain
I looked up at the dark nights sky. The clouds drifting along
gracefully. The moon shining in the sky. It was all so beautiful, all so
magnificent. And when you think about it, the universe with all it's
wonders, can contain anything. Anything, as in magic. And demon's.
I had been told the story of what's going on five times, and I still
have trouble believing it. It's all like something out of a movie or
book, not something real. But I can tell I'm going to get all the proof
I need that it's all real.
My hand drifted down to a sheathed sword which Amy had given me. It
was a little short, but well balanced and rather light weight. She also
gave me a handgun, which was stored in my pocket for safe keeping.
My eye's drifted over to the other's. Mrs. Davis, Andrew, Amy and
Sarah. And I wonder what they think, what they feel. They probably
aren't even nervous, they probably go through this every day. While me,
I barely believe it. I bet I'm sweating a river, no matter how cold it
is.
I looked at my right wrist where my watch was securely fastened. It
was 11:58, almost time. What would happen at twelve I don't know, and
frankly, I don't want to know. This is reality, not some story. I'll
probably die a horrible death, very horrible. And no one will remember
me, Phillip Greenwood.
Then a sound came, like the sound of a terrible scream. The whole
world then began to distort and twist until nothing seemed even remotely
right. I felt like I was being remade into something different, every
part of my body moving around with out my control. That's when I blacked
out......
I awoke with a throbbing headache. I got up to my feet and looked
around to see only darkness. I stood on total darkness, as did the
other's. It seemed that I was the last one to wake up.
Before I could ask any questions a bellowing voice came from
nowhere. "So you have accepted my challenge. Now prepare to fight to
death!" And when the voice ended, a figure appeared, wearing a blood red
robe which hid his hands and face.
I drew my sword from the sheath, as a bluff. I had no idea how to
use it, but I hoped he thought I knew how to use it. "What do you want?"
Did I really say that?
The red robed figure never responded. He held his head low and a
grin fell across his face. "I, Morbid have summoned you all because your
all the best of the best, except for Phil here. Amiel, the greatest
mercenary in the world. Andrew, the best freestyle necromancer. Mrs.
Davis. One of the most powerful angel's ever, and the greatest to work
for the E.S.F. and finally, Sahia, greatest dark mage ever. General of
the demonic forces."
I looked at Sarah, or Sahia, or whatever, and I could not believe
that she was a demon. It was a joke, a lie, a filthy lie! "Damn you!" I
ran up to him with my sword, prepared to fight. But I didn't reach him.
I bounced off an invisible force field.
Morbid laughed at me and the grin vanished. "My, my. The great hero
charges to fight the evil monster for the princesses honor. This is one
rich story. Would you like to see your enemy?" That wasn't a question.
Morbid slowly pulled down his hood to reveal, Matthew. "Your face as a
priceless look on it you know."
I was shocked, my best friend, for a very long time, was my enemy.
Some sort of evil man bent on doing something terrible to mankind.
"This, this, this, this can't be true."
Matthew laughed and drew a long sword from his sleeve. "Oh it is. I
always's wanted to be the villain, and this was my chance. I have done
everything to be the perfect villain except to kill the good guys.
Thank's to Myila, you will all die. And you, Phillip, you always's
wanted to be a hero, a righteous man. Well let's see what you got. But
first."
Matthew waved his hand and four figures appeared in front of him.
They were all female, with blue eyes, and rather beautiful bodies. One
had long blue hair and wore a two blue piece suit which was rather
revealing. The other three looked the same except one had purple hair
and wore purple, another red, and another green. They were all exactly
the same besides that.
"These are my general's. You had all the beautiful girl's in the
school, now I have my own. The one in green is envy, the one in blue is
lust, the one in red is hatred and finally the one in purple is greed.
Now let's fight shall we? Phillip, your against me."
And so the battle ensued........
I charged at Matthew with my sword, while he played on the
defensive. The battle didn't last very long. I attacked, he blocked,
parried another blow, counterattacked, I blocked, and then was hit by a
blow in the arm. I pulled back and looked at the wound. It wasn't very
bad, just a scrape. "Damn."
I then pulled out my handgun and fired out twelve shots. They flew
at Matthew with incredible speed, but they didn't hit him. He caught all
of them in his hand and threw them to the ground. "Bullet's are
cheating. Shall we go again?"........
Amiel moved right, left, left right. Whatever hatred was it was
good. It had amazing sword skill, speed, and magic abilities.
Amiel and the creature battled for a few minuted before Amiel's
blade found home. Going right through the creature's head, the sword was
soon covered in crimson blood..........
Andrew parried a blow and then threw three large, black fireball's
at his opponent. Lust was one hell of a powerful opponent,. Not very
strong in the magic categorize, but an amazing sword fighter with
incredible speed.
The fireball's missed and Lust threw her own. Andrew dodged then and
pulled out his revolver from his cloak. All six bullet's met home and
his opponent was knocked back, blood flowing from her chest. Her head
was soon removed from where it lay by one quick sword swipe. Crimson
blood flew everywhere. And Andrew was left looking at the corpse.......
Mrs. Davis, or Nikee, was fighting off Guilt. She swung her sword at
Guilt, but she dodged the strike.
Nikee then threw a large white sphere at Guilt. Guilt dodged this
attack, but it boomeranged around and hit her in the back. Nikee took
advantage of this and threw her sword at Guild, piercing Guilt's heart.
Guilt fell over, her blood staining the sword.......
And finally Sahia was fighting Sin. She pulled out twin revolver's
and fired at Sin. Sin dodged all the bullet's and went in for the kill.
With her fists, Sin pummeled Sahia. Dozens of blows landed, making Sahia
sore everywhere. She was prepared to die when Sin keeled over, dead on
the floor, her blood spilling everywhere.
Sahia looked up and Saw me with my gun, putting another clip in it.
"I'll never let you die.".........
Before anything else could be said Matthew jumped me from behind. I
struggled to fight him but I was quickly overpowered and thrown over
three meters away. I hit the ground with a thud. All my energy was gone,
the only thing was an urge to sleep.
I then heard gunshots. One, two, three.......... 30 in all. I used
most of my energy looking up to see Matthew on his knee's. I could see
he was bleeding greatly and coughing out all of his blood.
Looking down at him from behind was a woman I had never seen before.
She had long green hair which seemed to shine ever so slightly. She had
a rosy face with deep green eye's and glasses over them. She wore a
tight, white te-shirt and tight white short's. She was one of the most
beautiful women I had ever seen, beautiful seemed to pop up from nowhere
lately.
The woman looked over at Nikee and smiled. "Sorry I'm late, but I
got here!"
Nikee removed her gaze from the corpse of Guilt and turned it
toward's the woman. "Aly! What are you doing here?"
Amiel walked over to Mrs. Davis and looked at her and then over at
the woman. "Who is she anyway's?"
Nikee would have answered that question but she left that job up to
Aly. "I'm Aly, head of the information department of the E.S.F. Now who
might you be?"
Amiel would have answered but she was interrupted by the last word's
of Matthew. "Defeated by a bunch of loser's. Dammit! Damn you Aly, Damn
you. Should have kept my eye's on you. At least if I can't be the
perfect villain I'll try to be a normal one by losing. But I will not go
on about the folly of my way's like in anime or video games. I'll just
tell you that you can't win. Myila is the greatest, the most powerful,
she will crush you into dust. I'll be watching you from hell. Don't die
before the final act." And so he died.
I slowly got up to my feet and stumbled over to Matthew's blood
covered body. "I hope I don't join you Matthew."
Amiel turned to Aly. "Okay, I'll explain everything.".........
Aly nodded and looked at the five other's. "So what do you plan to
do now?"
Nikee moved from his position behind Amiel. He crossed his arm's and
closed his eye's. "I'm going to fight him, for the honor of the E.S.F.
Will you people come or run away?"
Aly blinked three or four times, and then sighed. "It's suicide. You
can't defeat Myila. She will kill us, even if we had a hundred mages!"
I looked at all of them and assumed a position similar to Nikee's.
"I'm in. Whoever this person truly is, she's killed my best friend and
my teacher. And she'll kill many more people before it's over."
Sahia looked at me with a gaze of wonder. It quickly broke and she
spoke up. "If Phillip's in, so am I."
I looked at her with surprise. She just smiled and winked at me. I
then noticed that Amiel was looking at both of us with a weird look. She
quickly stopped that she shrugged her shoulder's and sighed. "Well I'm
hired to protect Phillip. And I have to come through with it if I'm to
get the other thirty thousand. I'm in."
Andrew walked over to the body of Matthew and rooted through his
robe. He quickly found what he was looking for, the Necrotome. "I'm
sorry, I can't come along. I have what I want, and now it's time for me
to go."
He looked at the book for a second. As soon as he opened it up, it
crumbled into dust which fell through his finger's. His only word's
were, "Damn."
Nikee looked at the enraged man with a smile, she had the lure. "You
know in Myila's library they have the only other copy of this book, and
many other's like it."
Andrew looked up at Nikee, a smile crossed face and his eye's shone
with anticipation. "Well maybe I will come along. To vanquish evil and
to save the world. Yes, yes, that's it."
Aly sighed and shrugged. "Look's like I might as well come.
But......" She never finished. A blinding light engulfed te room and
everyone was knocked out.
