《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 27: A War Cry
Advertisement
After beating up the guards at the gate of heaven, I went back to where I first came here and jumped back to Earth, because I still had to prepare before going back to my homeland, the Reaper Society. Before jumping, I already had told Trinity about training both Jennifer, and Michael, as this would be our most intense fight, and considering that Johnny has 20 years to train, he will become much, much more stronger than you could imagine, and that he may as well be much more stronger than you. With that, Trinity then left and started her job, and then I jumped to Heaven. We stayed there for a total of a 5 days, so , since jumping back to Earth would take a day, we would most likely meet again in a week, which was enough to train Michael into a stronger man, and with the potion that Trinity created, Jennifer would also become much more stronger, as well.
It took me some time to set up the portal, but I was able to jump. After jumping I immediatly went back to the base, because I knew Hazen was still up in heaven, and Johnny was still training, just as Master had plotted. So far no one who was in my hitlist was down here, but soon there would be, soon Hazen will come back, and then he will have to lead both the government and the SPIRITS, however, the SPIRITS would most likely refuse. The thing is, SPIRITS was a cause brought by the first leaders of the council.
When the council was made, i.e with the 1st Dragon lord, RagNar, the Human Lord, Yagrek, The Demon Lord, whose name can't be told, the Angel Governer, Gabriel, and my grandfather, the Reaper Lord, Kais D. Diablo . My grandfather always told me about that meeting, how it was a great plan to regulate wars and fights. You see, the things the SPIRITS call, 'Hagriz' were nothing more than mere demons sent by the lords. The Idea of SPIRITS were first brought up by the demon lord, which was meant to find hybrids, which were made by two species making love and/or mutation, like Michael, for example. His father was a Reaper, yet Mother was a human, with a few traits of a Demon and Angel, but those two didn't match Trinity, so it passed onto Michael, and then, at a young age, mutations occured into his body giving him the power of his father, the Reaper, and the other two, the Flugre and Dragon.
Anyways, Hagriz were demons sent. They were made to ensure the population of Hybrids and to make sure no other species/race were to interfere with human lives, this was because, although the power of the Soul Emifer was very powerful, the humans didn't have the intellect to use it, yet they still made superstitions about how only a few people can use it, but infact, any other species which has the traits of a Human Soul Emifer, can easily master it. This is because we, as other species, have a higher intellect, yet the Dragons seem to be inferior only in intellect, yet they can still wield a Soul Emifer much better, yet still, RagNor-Ok is the first to not have a human trait.
So, the first leaders, the Demon Lord, and Human Lord, especially put up the act, in which some representitives from other races were to hide there true identity and live with the humans such that they can put this act into place. The founders of the SPIRITS were thus sent . There was two of them who were still acting today, and they were both the Demon generals. The other founders were long past dead. Although the SPIRITS served to help humans, and made 'Hagriz' as an excuse, the 'Government' was a total human affiliated program which was meant to find and fight the SPIRITS, as they thought they were actually against humans. This was mainly because, alhough they were here for a millenia at the least, in the past 20 years, more and more problems occured, so they had 'acted' and had to fight off. Thus the 'Government' took the idea that they were against humans and started a war against them.

The idea of naming it 'SPIRITS' was the idea of the Demon Lord. It was an acronym of Demon dialect, which was, "Satra Pikat Iram Ripare Itrav Travpe Saotba" which meant "Save Humans And Fight Off The Demons" yet humans don't understand demon dialect and considered it to be an actual name, as in spirits, or dead souls, which made them more worried. This was a good program from the beginning, but then it started going downhill, especially when the new leaders recruited the people they were meant to protect and check on numbers, ie Jennifer, and a few other workers from different worlds, yet Jennifer was not told any of this , so we had to explain it to her.
Anyhows, with my rambling away, I went to our hideout and asked Trinity how the training is going. "Well, welcome back Diablo~Sama. So far, Jennifer is taking the potion well, and Michael is still to afraid to use his powers." that was about it, it wasn't much to report. I was a bit tired of my right-hand woman calling me by my last name, so I flipped my hair and said, "It's okay if you call me Raizel, and drop the 'Sama' please," and then she accused me of flirting. I was shocked. I protected her several times, and she still had alot of respect, yet I was tired of it, and she was not, yet still, she listened and next time when she 'accidently' said Diablo~Sama, I heard her whisper, "Sorry, Raizel.." in an annoyed tone. The prepartions were almost complete, but before leaving I tossed Trinity the berries i picked at the Dragon Dimension. "We got 6 hours, make the most of the time, I'll set up the portal at Area 0923, see you there in 6 hours, and try and get Michael to activate his Soul Emifer, I've seen it once, and it will be a powerful asset to have by our side." and while she listened, she seemed surprised when I told her I saw him activate his powers. "You, actually saw it, Diablo~- I mean Raizel?" and I told her I truly did.
After that little dilemna, I went to Area 0923, aka the portal room, and started getting the Reaper portal set up, because if you don't destroy a portal you made previously, any being can go through it, essentially working like the portals from a portal gun. the portal took a while, about 2 hours, because I was a sloppy drawer, but I managed to finish it. For making a portal, the biggest problem would most likely be remembering the wordings for a desired location, and the designated dialect, because for example, my castle, isn't in normal Reaper dialect, it is from a mixture of each language, likewise with the other Lords. After setting it up, I decided to get some grub and water for the journey, because the trip between dimensions at least a day, as long as there isn't Jump Traffic, or JT, because, if two or more people attempt a jump at the same time, the dimensions would have problems themselves, so theres a junction in the middle in which there are cross roads for each dimension, and since, for the most part, atleast 50,000 of each species , except Flugre (As there number is already low, however the number of Dragons are much, much lower, but that isn't sure yet, because there main homeland is far in the midst of the Void), so the JT is usually pretty high, but I like travelling in morning, where there is less traffic.

After waiting those 4 hours, by playing on a PSP, Trinity came, along with Michael, and with Jennifer on a leash. She is to crazy for the drug, she said when I seemed puzzled enough. Michael was a bit scared because he didn't like jumping, it hurted his head, or atleast thats what he says. "I have a feeling this won't go as planned." he whispered to Trinity, but I could hear it very well, just as Jennifer. With drool on her mouth, she pounced at Trinity saying, "Gimme the potion drug thing whatever, It's delicous, it makes my Masochistic sides tingle with happiness, and makes my sadistic side feel better, so please, GIVE IT TO ME," and she kept on trying to run towards her, in attempt to grab one of the many flasks stuffed down her pockets. The portal was ready, so it was time to jump, and jump we did.
While we were traveling in the Lord Cube, we saw another Lord travel towards the Reaper Society. Although it wasn't an actual Lord, rather, the Lord before me, he smiled, waved at me and said, "Well done, Raizel, you've screwed us all." and he continued his way towards the Reaper Society. I was able to tell that wasn't a smile, rather a sadistic smile, a smile that meant he will kill me in the cruelest ways possible and will feed on my flesh (ok im joking >_< ). After staring at the stars, I got bored, so I went to my corner, because it was very small to begin with, and started playing on my PSP, and then I realized one thing, that made me almost cry. I looked at Trinity and said, " HOW COULD YOU! I .. I WAS SO CLOSE ON GETTING A HIGH SCORE!!! WHY..., WHY did you take THE GAME OUT! HOW SADISTIC ARE YOU, WOMAN!" and I felt sad, knowing it'll be a boring ride, yet she showed a sign of happiness. "Oh, my bad." she simply said, in a 'kawaii(cute)' voice, yet the sarcasm killed it, making it seem even worse then the previous lord's smile. Finally we were there.
When we entered, as usual, about ten reapers came, pouncing at me, to try and grab the title as Lord, but Trinity and Jennifer knocked them aside, and Michael tredded below me, clinging on to my clothing. As I walked, old memories came back to me. I haven't been here for the past 200 years, so it would seem like there was a riot going on. The person who I appointed to keep check on the place was long dead, and I was to lazy to go here just to appoint another, so political terms, we were doing the worst, but I simply gathered every reaper possible and asked them to come to the central squire. After 2 hours I told them everything that happened.
"We, the reapers, have been living under the foreshadows of the other races, we have been shunned, and have been hated. I want to show the world our power, so as a result, I appointed 3 people to take care of the army. The army will be split into the 3 groups, The Savages, The Tactics, and The Bait. The Savages will be Men only , and will consist of the finest soldiers, who have been given a power of atleast 10,000 or more, making this group have a strength around 1000 people , or so they say (I said, whispering to Trinity) . They will be in charge of killing any group that halts our voyage, and since we caused the commotion, they would most likely call there armies to us. The Savages will be lead by Jennifer Gratenheim, a hybrid without Flugre powers, and a fierce woman. The Tacitcs will be lead by men and women alike, with a power of atleast 5000 and an Intellegence of atleast 15,000 . These will be lead by Trinity Gabrios, and her brother, Michael Gabrios. There job is to create a tactic to ensure the safety of The Bait, and let The Savages a chance to kill. The Bait will be consisted of everyone else left, which are meant to serve as bait for The Savages and Tactics. This team will be lead by me, as I will be the main target of the Lords. With this, I dismiss you, telling you to get ready for war, because it may occur at any......... time." leaving a pause , for the exact time Trinity had told me to.
The moment I finished, although three or four reapers came to take my head, the rest were pretty much ready to fight on the fly, and Trinity's deduction was perfect, as usual. From the passages of the Main gate, South and East gate, and the Central Squire, a group of Flugre,Angel,Demon and Dragon had came. About a group of 5000 Flugre, 10,000 Angel, 15,000 Demon, and 10 Dragons came. They were all lead by a well known governer, but not the lords themselves. It seems Hazen will have a bit of a problem, because he just became elected, and no one trusts him that well. I then rallied our troops saying our go to motto, "Najumahe!" which meant "Let's Go!" and the reapers were rallied, shouting our war cry , and the bloody massacre had started.

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
