Chapter 1: The Betrayal
*The Scene opens to two helicopters flying over a city. Inside the helicopter six people prepare their equipment*
Mason: Alright, we have our objective, apparently a gang of Night Wraiths, are plotting an attack on the south side of Las Vegas. Their target is the Golden Wreath Casino. Our intel says that there's only thirty of them so this should be a quick by the book operation. Primals you will lead from the front.
Bishop: As always, maybe on of these days we will get to watch the fighting from the rear.
Mason: You know what you're here for, don't forget that Bishop....
Bishop: Wouldn't dream of it sir....
Duke: *Australian accent* Get a load of this guy Faux, we've been doing the dirty work for SEGMA for over two years and we still get treated like their lackies.
Faux: *British accent* I don't know mate, I work where the money comes in, that's all I know. What you thinking Jasper?
Jasper: I keep to myself, you know that, this job provides for my family, that's all that matters....
Duke: *Laughing* HA! look at this chump, family man riskin his ass for some chump change? Not worth it in my opinion.
Eris: Lock it up, he has his reasons for fighting, and so do we....
Duke: Yes mam, Wouldn't want to flare you up.
*The helicopters begin their descent on the Golden Circle*
Mason: Look alive, we're touching the ground!
*The helicopter lands on the roof of the casino and the teams depart the helicopters*
Bishop: Look at them down there, all those civilians thinking they amount to something with all that cash to just throw away, pathetic if you ask me....
Jasper: Not our place to judge, we just focus on the mission.
Duke: If you ask me, I think we should be getting a nice piece of the cut.
Jasper: We get what we get, nothing more, nothing less.
Faux: I don't know about you, but I like the money, protecting and serving ain't worth a damn if the pay ain't right.
Mason: Form a perimeter, watch the entrances, Intel says the Night Wraiths should be arriving shortly....
Bishop: You heard the man, form it up.
*The rest of the team*: Yes sir!
*The Team sets up a perimeter on the rooftop and aims down at the entrances*
Eris: What are we looking for?
Mason: Anything suspicious, call it in, command will tell us what to do from there.
Bishop: Hold on, we're waiting on command to give us an order to do our jobs? Shit, we don't have time for that.....
Mason: Don't act on your own, you know that....
Bishop: Whatever you say.....
Eris: Be aware that these Night Wraiths are Morphlings...they can change their appearance to look like humans...
Duke: Thanks for that, I mean we've only fought these cocks for two years now.
*Below, civilians walk in and out of the Casino. Jasper looks through the scope of his rifle, scanning for anything abnormal. He notices a group of men walking close together, their movements different than a normal human's.*
Jasper: I've got something.
Mason: Where?
Jasper: fifty meters out, approaching the main entrance....
Eris: I see them too.
Faux: Finally, show time.
Mason: Don't move until I give the signal....
*The men enter the casino. Jasper clicks the safety on his rifle and moves over the skylight and looks into the Casino's main floor*
Jasper: What's the word?
Mason: Hold, we need to verify these are our targets...
Bishop: You're shitting me? You saw how they moved, that's them....
Mason: Don't move until I give the signal....
Duke: And when will that be? When all hell breaks loose? No pun intended....
Mason: We can't give our position away....
*Below the men look around at the civilians playing at the gambling tables and slot machines*
Eris: What are we waiting for?
Mason: We need confirmation....
Bishop: On what? If we waste time, they'll make a move before we can.....
Mason: Don't be hasty.
*One of the men below looks up and sees the team staring down. He opens his mouth revealing his demonic fangs*
Bishop: Fuck this.....
Mason: WAIT!
*Bishop jumps into the window and hurdles down towards men*
Mason: Son of a bitch, MOVE!
Duke: Now he tells us....
*The rest of the team jumps through the window and fast lines onto the casino floor. The demons pull out weapons and begin shooting at the team, just as Bishop lands on one of them, slamming him into the ground*
Bishop: YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND AGAINST ME?!
*A purple fireball erupts from Bishop's hand, and hurdles towards the demons*
Mason: WATCH YOUR FIRE!
*The fireball explodes killing some of the civilians who are trying to escape and some of the demons. The others are engaged in a fire fight with the other demons*
Jasper: DAMNIT, BISHOP THOSE WERE CIVILIANS!
Bishop: Collateral damage, cost of a few to save the many.
*The demons jumps towards Bishop, but Duke and Faux jump ahead. Duke's fist glows with yellow energy and Faux with green energy*
Duke: YOU FUCKED WITH THE WRONG PEOPLE!
*Duke and Faux lunge forwards causing a spiraling green and yellow blast of energy to erupt from them, disintegrating the demons instantly*
Faux: Well that wasn't much fun was it?
Duke: *Laughing* looks like they couldn't keep up.
*The demons try to retreat, but Eris stands in the way of the entrance*
Eris: Leaving So soon?
Demon: Get out of the way, unless you're ready to die?
Eris: Oh? Let's test that shall we?
*The demons lunge towards Eris. A bright light emerges from her and flames explode forward, engulfing the demons*
Eris: Hmm, fire beats demon...who would have guessed....
*The demons slowly collapse to the ground, as Eris walks over their smoldering remains. Inside the Casino floor the remaining demons rush towards Jasper *
Jasper: Guess we didn't learn from the rest did we?
*As the demons lunge towards Jasper, he slaps his hands together*
Jasper: DIAMOND DUST!
*The room instantly freezes and the demons become frozen solid. Jasper grins, and releases his hands. The ice around him shatters and the remains of the demons fall to the ground, shattering on impact*
Jasper: Easy enough....
*Jasper makes his way back to the team. Bishop and Mason are arguing*
Mason: WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!
Bishop: It's not my problem that you can't give orders....
Mason: WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO ACT ON YOUR OWN?!
Bishop: Permission? Who said we needed permission to do our jobs?
Mason: YOUR RECKLESSNESS ALMOST JEOPARDIZED THE MISSION AND YOU ALSO GOT CIVILIANS KILLED IN THE PROCESS! NOW COMMAND WILL HAVE TO CLEAN THIS UP!
Bishop: So sorry for the inconvenience, but that's how casualties of war are....
Mason: Just wait until we get back to base....
Bishop: Oh? Threatening me now are we?
Mason: You're out of line, and it's time that your attitude got addressed....
*Bishop walks towards Mason and smiles*
Bishop: Hmm....well address this....
Mason: What are y.....
*Bishop drives his arm through Mason's chest. Mason's eyes widen and blood sprays the ground.*
Mason: Wha....What....the....hell....*Coughs up blood*
Bishop: You know....I've grown tired of you're views of us. You and SEGMA think we are just obedient tools at your disposal, but in reality thanks to you, we can rule this whole damn planet....
Mason: *Weakly* You.....won't....get away....with this
Bishop: *Smiles* Oh but I have
*Purple flames engulf Mason, turning him into ash*
Mason: Now that that is out of the way, anyone else have any qualms they would like to address?
Jasper: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!
Bishop: Oh, Jasper, we decided that we are no longer going to be held back by SEGMA and their "orders" any longer.....
Jasper: You can't do this, we're meant to protect.....
Duke: Protect what exactly? A people that doesn't know we exist? An organization that sees us as expendable? I'm with Bishop on this one, we could rule the world with our power.
Faux: I agree mate.
Eris: I do too.
Jasper: Don't do this....
*The other team members begin closing in on Bishop*
SEGMA Operative: Stand Down!
Bishop: Looks like Jasper has made his choice....
Jasper: Don't make me fight you....
Bishop: Good luck trying....
*Bishop smiles and a huge blast of purple flames erupts from him causing a massive explosion that sends Jasper and the SEGMA operatives flying back*
Jasper: *Weakly* do...don't do this.....Eris....please....
*Eris turns to look at Jasper as the others walk away*
Eris: I'm sorry....
*Jasper's vision fades to black and he passes out from the blast*
