{Southern Demon District}

Over the offramp for the highway to Roronora, a solo, sad, scared, purple and blue cloud floats over the quiet Demon District.

SeiõrSnow falling like always.

As the two peculiar forms of energy meet, they don’t interact with each other. The SeiõrSnow falls through the unfortunate, uncontainable cloud while it continues it’s path towards Roronora City.

There is one weak, and quite man’s final whisper coming from the cloud.

Purple/Blue Cloud: "...Ka...waii..."

{Present Day, Above the Sister Mountains, 8:35PM}

Within Nephilim’s Blackhawk helicopter, his small group of Arai, Maniae, Tristan, and Silpheed hover over the three sister mountains. Slowly cruising towards Mt. Morta and it’s summit that opens up like a dome stadium.

Nephilim looks across the cabin at his two newest and youngest members of his special General Officers.

Arai and Maniae are both knocked out cold from exhaustion, leaning on each other for support.

A flash goes off and the General looks over as Tristan pulls out the polaroid picture, dispensed out the bottom of his old school camera.

Tristan: "Next time they think they’re some jokers, I’ll show them my leverage, hehe..."

Nephilim(chuckles): "That’s a very heads up move of you, young Tristan.

Although, what if they pretend to have developed those types of feelings for each other, just to trick others into believing you’re teasing them?

Then everyone would see you as the bad guy, no?"

Tristan looks at the half developed picture and sucks his teeth. He stuffs the picture in his pocket and takes a look out the window of the chopper.

After a moment of scanning, his eyes narrow and the General’s 3rd in command focuses on something in the distance, where Roronora City is...

Tristan: "General Nephilim sir, um, do you also see that orange light illuminating from over there?"

Nephilim quickly shifts towards his window to see what his disciple is talking about. His red eye widens and he grits his teeth in anger.

Nephilim: "Silph! Sudden change in plans, we’re going northwest towards Roronora City."

Silpeed nods and the Blackhawk makes a deep turn, waking up one and a half of the two sleeping boys.

Maniae(worried): "Wah-Woah, are we going down?!"

Arai(half asleep): "Ermmm, I don’t care if I die..."

The blonde falls back asleep, curling up, and laying down on the rest of the available bench.

The General’s anger suddenly switches to a look of realization.

Nephilim: "Young Tristan, didn’t Dice’s lady friend say something about those goons being deployed to Roronora?"

Tristan gets a concerned look and remembers the sight of the completely leveled Son Goku City.

The red eyed Maniae takes his own peek as he scoots over to the window.

Maniae: "That looks like fire... A friggin huuuge one too."

Tristan: "Nephilim sir, you don’t think Katsu and Shelly...?"

Nephilim: "We’ll see what’s going on first, before we make any assumptions.

However, I want you to pray for the best, but prepare for the worst, young Tristan.

I have an incredibly horrible feeling right now..."

Tristan: "Stephanie and I are from Roronora City!

Granted, Laban had changed it into a ghetto sanctuary, but there are still memories there.

If Katsu and Shelly are going around, actually being terrorists, and completely destroying my home city, I-I..."

Nephilim: "Unfortunately, young Tristan, I have already told you to cope with the reality of cutting ties with those two deviants.

That advice was not meant to make you feel guilty for giving up on your friends, but because I knew Dice isn’t to be trusted.

He’s manipulative, and he was going to brainwash them with his false charisma eventually.

Thanks to MamMon, it is confirmed that boy Katsu has an eye ability that can control Icemen. Because these incidents have only been documented ever since Squad 40 has left the Sister Mountains, it’s an ever increasing pile of evidence against them.

These aliens are being directed to fully demolish any specific area that Dice points his faithful crew at."

Silpheed b-lines directly towards Roronora, taking 15 minutes.

The ’orange light’ gets more defined and obvious that the city is under attack, while sporadic fires pop up and grow larger without anyone trying to put them out.

However, the first sign of new, irregular Icemen activity is witnessed from their helicopter perspective.

Tristan: "No fuckin way..."

The encircling group of giant Icemen have already passed where the city’s boundaries once stood and are destroying the outer most buildings, monuments, shops, and vehicles closest to the perimeter, moving inward.

The giants are swinging their long nearly indestructible arms, tearing down the first tall buildings they see then moving on to the next.

Some jump into the structures with their shoulder and stomp down on all the rubble raining down on them.

They are crushing the smaller stores, and running through apartments.

Unseen by the group within the distant helicopter, the giant Icemen are also completely juicing the gore piles left by their smaller allies. Squeezing out even more blood that streams through the streets of Roronora and water pipes begin to burst as the feet of giant aliens crash down on the concrete.

The flowing water from those pipes, as well as from kicked open fire hydrants, begins to mix with the unsettling flowing blood, creating a larger volume of dark red liquid that floods up to the curbs.

Once close enough, Silpheed hovers above the destroyed Eastern border and everyone except Arai watches the unstoppable chaos.

Tristan: "...Why?"

Nephilim: "I have two possible theories, young Tristan.

The first, Laban’s people revolted against the militia Dice had sent, and now your pal Katsu is giving them their death sentences as a collective group.

The second theory, is that delinquent, Saku, was breaking ranks for his own personal benefit, in turn, forcing that beautiful but highly skilled assassin to chase after him.

All while Katsu directs this orchestra of aliens for that ’personal agenda’ both MamMon and Laban have mentioned... but that’s the least likely scenario, I believe..."

Maniae looks at his snoozing comrade, then at Tristan.

Maniae: "You’re friends with the people who are doing this?(looks at Nephilim)

But what’s in it for them?

There’s literally no reason for them to do all this destruction and violence."

Nephilim: "Evil doesn’t need a reason, young Maniae.

When evil sees their own happiness as something more important than the life of others, there are no innocent victims, only statements made towards anyone who plans to oppose that evil."

Tristan has a egregiously pissed off expression as he watches his original home city get leveled.

His nose twitches.

Tristan(thinking growl): *Katsuuuu...*

{Outside True Bloom Arena, Center of Roronora City 8:50 PM}

A smiling Katsu is continuing his stroll through the city, hands in his pockets, as the chaos of the defeated city is coming to it grand finale.

His Anjell Eye in second stage, a Yang aura and Icemen are avoiding the commanding vessel, while searching for any remaining citizens still alive.

A swerving car, with an escaping man is being attacked by a hitchhiking Iceman through the window.

The vehicle loses control, rolls over, with full momentum it crashes into gas pumps and *BOOM* the entire fueling station explodes 200 yards behind Katsu, while he is looking up at the top of the basketball arena.

There is a strong rumble felt and it shakes the carved wooden letters on top of the stadium.

The Yang Vessel smirks while thinking of a plan.

Katsu(thinking): *Perfect...You all know what to do now...*

He looks up at the individual clouds of the humans he’s responsible for killing, traveling in the same direction.

His smile turns to a frown and he takes a deep breath.

Katsu: "I hope Shelly and Saku are okay..."

{2 Miles East of True Bloom Arena, heading South}

Shelly is quickly maneuvering through the enemy filled streets. Cutting down every Iceman in her way or any that spot her, with Madame Fryer tagging along, also taking out any closing stragglers.

The blue eyed warrior looks up at the same, sad colored clouds, marching in a conforming direction.

Shelly: "Wait, so if he’s got the Wisdom Eye of Absorption...

Come on Madame Fryer, I’m positive this is how we’re going to find this dumbass now."

She continues making her way southwest. The explosion that happens closest to Katsu, is heard in the near distance as Shelly lands on the top of a deluxe super market outlet store.

The land is on fire and covered in red as far as the eye can see.

More electrical explosions randomly happen from the pandemonium.

Shelly: "I’m getting a dejá vu moment right now, Madame Fryer...

The closer I get to him, the more of this nagging feeling in my stomach I get.

Like, I’m going to have to knock his ass out, to have a chance at any sort of escape."

{South Roronora City, Rooftop 8:52 PM}

Saku is still feeling immense pain from the unprecedented absorption of the souls slain that night.

He is in the fetal position while holding his head. The dark blue and purple clouds, as well as the blood red Icemen clouds, get sucked into his Anjell Eye’s pitch black aura circling into the bright white circular center.

Within each dead human cloud, unrelenting screams, pleas, and the horrifying last thoughts of the innocent being brutally murdered, echo throughout Saku’s head.

However, with every blood red cloud from a killed Icemen that Saku absorbs, he hears something else. Within every blood red cloud contains the acrimonious voices of men who clearly died in vain, fighting for their purpose.

Red Cloud Voices: "...’I swear, I’ll kill them all for what they’ve done!’

...’Get off my wife, you mother f- *gunshot*’

...’Even if I die here, I’ll curse those bastards forever in the afterlife!’..."

Saku, now conscious, but unable to stop his Anjell Eye from absorbing all these negative wandering clouds, can only suffer through the torture.

Saku(in agony): "What’s....happen...ingggg, AAHHHHHHH!!!"

On the same rooftop, MamMon, Esau, and the captured Princess Kawaii watch the Yin Vessel struggle.

The building shakes and Esau turns around to see the incoming wave of giants less than 2 minutes from breaching the city.

He turns back to MamMon, who has the gun she swiped from the kidnapper.

The DæMon tosses the weapon off the building, and it falls with a *SPLASH* into the blood below, exposing it’s deep enough to submerge the firearm.

Esau: "Hey!"

He looks back over and sees the Old Norse woman has retrieved the lock of Edom’s bright red hair and it’s matching color bow.

MamMon DæMon: "Consider this your last warning, dear Esau.

I had kindly asked you to not to do something as moronic as firing a bullet in this new Seiõr exposed world.

Especially at the side with someone who can deflect said bullet.

Believe it or not, but your single, moronic action earlier, was the catalyst for this city’s downfall and all these deaths.

That Yang Vessel was itching to be active, and you gave him the perfect cover."

Esau sucks his teeth and with the free hand not holding on to the princess, he takes the momento back.

Esau: "Thanks, and I’m sorry, I guess..."

Saku: "Argh hahahahah!!!"

Princess Kawaii: "Big Brudder!!"

MamMon DæMon approaches the little girl being held by Esau’s strong underarm, and crouches to her eye level.

Because the only features seen from under her hooded cloak are her golden hair, and luminescent blue eyes, the feeble princess is confused.

Princess Kawaii: "Big Sidder Shelly?"

After staring at the princess’s bright pink eyes, the DæMon begins to laugh hysterically.

MamMon DæMon: "Oooohhhhhtotototototo! Holy Hell, I can’t believe it!

Just how many women from those damned clans, were successfully able to live in hiding, due to Skalmönd’s final SeiõrSpell?

First Per Se Phōne, and now this little pipsqueak!"

Esau is shocked and looks down at the 6 year old princess in his right arm.

Esau: "This brat, is also a 2nd Generation?"

Mammon’s eyes are closed and she thinks for a moment.

A kicked tree, launched by an approaching giant Iceman, flies into the building next to them.

It makes the princess in question squeak.

Mammon DæMon: "It’s a good thing you are their objective, ’Phæthon’, daughter of Clymene, because when that Yang Vessel and Skalmönd lose in a couple days, I’ll be training you with any other 2nd Generation DæMons I find and I’ll have an endless tap of PsychoSeiõr.

Just like Skalmönd did with Iôunn!"

...

...

...

Princess Kawaii: "Wait...you’re not Big Sidder!"
