Ch. 28 "RESSURECTION"

"If it means I can save Mikaela from her horrible fate then, I accept"

"It is a pleasure having such a great deal with you human..."

"I'm sorry Kenzou, it seems like I'm about to do something you'll never like" Rei said with a small smile on his face.

"Now human, become my vessel and follow my orders for I am ENTITY ZERO, born from the anger of the GREAT ENTITY. I shall destroy this world for my entertainment!!"

Entity Zero's hands suddenly pierced Rei's chest and slowly it pulled out Rei's heart which was still beating. Rei stared at his empty chest which had a large whole, slowly from the depths of the void a black spiral appeared below him. He looked at Entity zero and started as the Entity devoured his heart in front of him. He was suddenly dragged down into the depths and watched as Entity Zero waved its hand.

*Outside the Walls at the Dome of the East*

Squadron III we're fighting a horde of Low-class demons that had suddenly appeared. On top of the wall, Rylee along with Professor Misty watched as his subordinates fought the demons.

"How do you think Rei is doing?" Misty asked.

"If I got the news right, he's inside the Dome of the South. Due to the death of General Stella's subordinates, he along with a woman was sent inside the dome to rest and forget about the death. It was quite a change of pace for the general to do something like that she always had this cold and terrifying aura surrounding her, but I think she has a liking on Rei"

"Is that so, Kenzou would be happy to hear that. But I've received a message from the Directors, I was asked to immediately return to the capital some, but I declined as no one will be here to take care of the laboratory once the General's Meeting commences"

"Ah... The meeting... I wonder what will happen in that meeting"

Suddenly, while Misty and Rylee we're having a conversation.

"KENZŌ!!" Cecelia screamed.

Rylee immediately took a glance and saw Kenzō on the ground trying to grasp his breath as blood began to come out of his mouth.

"Misty, prepare the operating room. Somethings wrong" Rylee immediately spoke.

"Kurt, tell Cecelia and Ashley to bring Kenzō inside the laboratory. You and Claire fend off all those demons and immediately retreat after" Rylee ordered through their earpiece.

"Got it, Commander!. Claire, you and I will fend off these demons, Ashley, Cecelia retreat with Kenzō immediately these are the commander's orders!" Kurt spoke.

Claire's eyes slowly turned lifeless as she started at Kenzou who looked like he was on the brink of death.

"CLAIRE ARE YO-" Kurt was about to gran Claire's arm but stopped when he saw the size of Acrux grow.

"FUCKING DEMONS!! IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO HIM I'LL END THIS WOLRD MYSELF!!" Claire screamed as she barged straight into the middle of the horde slashing everything in her path.

Kurt nodded at Cecelia and Ashley, the two immediately towards the wall while Kurt ran after Claire. But as he did he noticed a dark spiral of clouds forming above the Dome of the South, he immediately stops and watches as it grew bigger and bigger.

"Commander, are you seeing this?" Kurt spoke through the earpiece.

"Seeing what?"

Kurt looked at the location where Rylee and Misty were and pointed towards the area of the dome of some of the south.

"That Commander..."

Suddenly the Demons that Claire we're fighting began to shiver, all of them ran straight towards the blade of her scythe. They were killing themselves.

"What the hell is that?" Rylee spoke as he stared at the clouds.

Suddenly a ray of black light emerges from its center and struck the dome. Rylee's eyes widened as he suddenly felt a strong pressure coming straight towards them.

"EVERYBODY GET DOWN!" He ordered.

He immediately pushed Misty down. Claire, Kurt, Ashley, and Cecelia heard their commanders scream and immediately followed.

A strong pressure suddenly struck them it was a wind strong enough to break a human in an instant. The demons who surrounded Claire were all can't into smithereens.

"Is everyone alright?" Rylee immediately asked as the wind disappeared.

"Commander... It seems like Kenzou is now breathing fine" Ashley spoke.

Claire looked at the location of Cecelia and Ashley and immediately rushed towards them, she then embraced Kenzō as tears began to rush out of her eyes. Kurt also went to where his comrades were.

*Inside the Dome of the South*

"YOU WILL DIE BY MY HANDS, YOU MONSTER!!" Rei said.

The creature began to tremble upon the sight of the newly reborn Rei, the creature released Mikaela instantly and began to kneel as if Rei was a God who descended from the heavens. But Rei did not care whether he was worshiped or not, he only had set in his mind, it was to save Mikaela.

"I... AM... SO... RY..." The creature spoke with its distorted voice.

The creature stared at Rei as its eyes were filled with fear. A gush of wind suddenly blew against the monster, and then it felt a tingling sensation that slowly turned into extreme pain when it realized both its hand have been severed.

The creatures face immediately hit the ground as it lost its balance, it looked again at Rei before speaking its final words.

"A... KU... MA..."

It spoke as another gust of wind blew against him. Its vision became dark as its head began rolling further away from its body.

Mikaela was suddenly awoken by a scream, she realized that she was naked but forgot it instantaneously when she tilted her head and saw Rei.

Rei stood on top of the creature which no longer had a head and arms. His clothes were the same military uniform Mikaela saw when they first met. He held two swords in his hands and started up the sky as the light of the sun showered him. Tears began to come out of Mikaela's eyes when she saw Rei face. Despite being naked she immediately used her Star and unhesitantly attacked Rei.

"WHO ARE YOU? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO REI?!" She screamed.

Rei blocked her blade and stared at her directly, his eyes were lifeless, his face was no longer bright despite the sun showering him, his smile was gone.

"I AM ENTITY ZERO" he spoke.

Rei suddenly lost balance and fell on to Mikaela's chest. His hands had let go of both the swords.

"I'm sorry..." He whispered before passing out.

Mikaela smiled as she embraced her, but her heart dropped the moment she saw the surroundings. It was horrifying all the people inside the dome was killed everything along with the buildings and the landforms had been destroyed. She then realized that sunlight was above them, she saw it the dome's top had been destroyed.

"What did you do Rei?" She asked.

Suddenly Rei woke up and pushed her away from him instantaneously. A sudden laser of light struck the creature they were standing on, it was immediately blasted into smithereens. And from the hole on top of the dome appeared the strongest General.

"What have you two been doing while I was gone?" She spoke.

"C-Commander Stella?" Mikaela was shocked to see Stella.

Rei stared at Stella with empty eyes.

"How have you been, Rei?" She asked.

But Rei did not give any response, he simply stared at her with his swords ready to attack.

"Is this how it is now? Are you really taking that path?" She asked again.

Rei did not give any response he lifted his sword and pointed it at Stella. Slowly his eyes turned white and black lines began to appear from the right side of his body.

"If that is what you want then I have no choice. I GENERAL STELLA ROTH, DECLARE YOU A TRAITOR AND ENEMY OF THE WORLD, YOU SHALL BE EXECUTED NOW AND HERE!" Stella declared.

"What are you saying, commander??" Mikaela immediately after pulled the sleeves of Stella's coat.

"He raised his sword against me, he annihilated all life inside this dome as the head of the whole military I must do my job and execute all traitors that threaten our world" Stella spoke.

She then removed her coat and placed it on Mikaela's shoulders.

"Wear this for me. I don't want his blood to stain my clothes"

"But... Commander..." Mikaela was silenced when she saw the commander's eyes.

She was holding back her tears, she does not want to hurt him. But has no other option.

Stella walked towards Rei as her ring began to shine, her red hair slowly turned white and a sword appeared on her right hand.

"I'd get far away from here as possible" Stella yelled to Mikaela.

Suddenly the gourd began to shake and cracks started to appear, Mikaela ran in the opposite direction. There were no longer trees or rocks she can hide on the whole place was destroyed and was turned into flat land.

"Come, my ship! Heed the call of your master! RELEASE ARGO!!" she screamed.

A large ship emerged from the land and floated up to the sky, it was a ship filled with the color of red. Its canons immediately pointed at Rei, Stella raised her left hand to the sky.

"FIRE!!" She screamed as she pointed her finger at Rei.

Cannonballs were immediately fired at towards Rei's location. The sound was so loud that Mikaela had to cover her ears.

"This is... The power of the second strongest Star... Canopus..." She said as she clenched her teeth.
