*Human World*India(Aarav State)
*Tuesday*
*6:54pm*
*Late Evening*
.""AHHH HELP, SAVE ME-AGHH"".
*Spray*!
A man was running and screaming through the streets like a headless chicken, suddenly his head was lopped off his shoulders, spraying dark red blood on the ground staining it.
Terrified humans standing around and some hiding watching on in frozen terror as this took place, children were crying, same as adults.
The sky was bruised with black clouds, thunder roared and lightning struck, it was as if Thor himself was enraged, marching the streets were the undead army, thousands upon thousands, all led by the Undead general.
."Hha Hha Hha kill them all."The Undead General said chuckling a bit, be stood in place letting the army past him like tides in the sea.
Everywhere they past, it was only death awaiting, women, children and even animals, all died miserably, some brave men stood infront of their family, while the mother hugged the crying children, they all died instantly.
While on the other hand, some cowardly men ran and left their families, while the women tried their best, but as the others, they all died instantly in the wave of undead as well, the ground quickly became coated in red chilling the sky as it reflected and mirrored this expression.
.""Oruuu!!!"".
.""Oruuu!!!"".
The undead growl and groan as they baptized the state, in just a few minutes as many as they were undead, just as many human were killed and more.
The undead general's green eyes glinted.'Good, keep on your destruction brothers and sister.'He thought as he gazed around the roof tops, his bone mouth opened as if giving a menacing grin.
*Jingle*
A lone Jingle of a bell rung out into the atmosphere, it caused a stirr in the stagnation of the carnage statement and made room for the air to change and transform, who or what caused this.
.""Mrtyu ka lakshy punarjanm hai(The Goal Of Life Is Death)"".
*Om*!!!
*Crack*!!!
*Haa*!!!
As a calm unperturbed voice spoke out, a bright yellow light appeared in the air like a sun and shun on the undead bones below, just like that over a hundred instantly began to crack and simply turned to piles of dust on the ground.
This placed a temporary pause to the advance of the army, they without the ability to feel fear turn to a roof top above gazing on.
Casually sitting in lotus position on the building was a decrepit oldman in a Dharma rode, he was bare feet, his hair was white and long taking the shape of the roots resembling the tree of life, his eyes gray as if blind but still active with cosmic intelligence.
The undead general looked at his men that were turned to dust, before looking at the old man, the green light in his sockets flared."So who might you be, pretty good for a human that seems just as dead as us."He said with a mocking tone.
The Oldman gently gazed at the undead General."This one's earthly name is Divy Antardrshti, Yogi of the Magic Council of india, in service to the great God Shiva, if I may ask, why have you descended upon this world, causing such misery."He asked in a gentle forgiving tone, it was so pure that it was beautiful to listen to, it didn't correlate with his old appearance at all, he didn't even seem angry.
."Heh, descended, more like ascended, I have nothing to explain to you, so I'd advise you, if you can excape do that, if not then die like the other's."The General said casually as he signaled his army to resume their destruction.
The Oldman Yogi nodded closing his eyes, his emotions unperturbed."I cannot defeat you all by myself, I will return, forgive me all..."He said levitating up before disappearing into the distance like a shooting star.
The undead once again resumed.
Over in the city, it was calm, everyone walking around and doing the usual, completely unaware of what was going on at the edge of their state and coming for them.
But there was one place that was not calm, the governing house of the state managed by its state minister(Fictional), in the governing house were six people.
5 of them trusted state officials and the last the State Minister of the Aarav state, they were all sweating and almost shaking in their boots as they watched on a screen the undead army marching forward.
.""Dammit, what are we going to do State minister, normal weapons won't do damage to those things, why is this happening now!!!"".
.""We have to warn the people, this is out of our control, why is this happening to us!!!"".
While the officials were freaking out the State minister was in his thoughts.'Why now, I thought there was a treaty with the supernaturals, was there a disagreement?.'He thought long and hard, he felt like pulling out his hair, mind you he was balled as a baby's ass.
."Alright, all of you calm down now, we still have a fighting chance, don't forget humanity also has its own force, each state of India has its own branch of magicians managed by the Magic Council's 12 Great Magicians."The State Minister said as he grin, sweat still coating his forehead.
.""Ah, yes, that's right, the Magic Council, quickly send a message, we have to call the Magic Council!"".
The State minister, looked to a particular wall, his expression soleme, he walked over to it, place his hand on a pad, the wall opened like a door.
Inside was a room with a levitating alter, runes were lit up on it, on this alter was a lone telephone, connected to nothing, a singular red light lit the room.
The six officials looked on in eagerness, the State Minister slowly walked to the phone becoming more and more serious, he reached to the phone taking it up placing it by his ear.
.""*Ollo, to be sent to customer service for magically created items press 1, to be directed to a teacher of magically knowledge press 2, to be directed to India's magician head quarters press 3, to contact the Magic Council of india press 0, have a good day*"".
The state Minister was frozen stiff, the six officials peeked over his shoulders filled with curiosity, one of them spoke."What is wrong State Minister?."He ask scratching his head.
."...it directed me to numbers I can use to contact different areas of the Magicians association..."The state Minister said with hollow eyes, his voice listless.
The six officials tilt their heads."So what's the problem?."One of them asked, not seeing the problem.
."...The phone doesn't have any buttons.."State minister said point to the phone, his face pale white.
The Officials turned white as they were horror struck."WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT, DO THEY THINK US IDIOTS, THEY KILLED US!!!."The officials shout out.
The state minister rubbed his temple, he walked out the room looking back at the monitor."We might have to order an evacuation, we might have to contact the Prime Minister for a nuclear strike, but first we have to try everything at our disposal."He said, he picked up his own phone and dialed a number.
.""*..Yes*"".
The ministers eyes lit up, he got serious."Suicide Squad, your expertise is needed, supernatural threat, south-eastern Aarav, you know what to do, contact me right away if you think we need to evacuate."He said commanding.
.""*Ok...evacuate*"".
*Kacha*
The state Minister put down the phone, more nervous than ever."You six, past on the message to the police and military, we are evacuating the country, contact the other ministers, the prime Minister, even the royal family, this is out of our pay grade, way beyond what we ordinary mortals could handle."He said with fear.
~~~
*Magic Council*
Out in the mountains of India, a figure could be seen traveling at high speeds, seated calmly in mid air, this was Divy Antardrshti, one of the 12 Great Magicians and self proclaimed Yogi.
After a few more minutes of flying, he dropped out the sky swiftly landing on a large and tall stone platform, around him were eleven more, below them was a deep hole that the stone platforms were in, one couldn't even see the bottom.
Each platform was engraved with a number, Divy was standing on the one with the number 9 engraved on it.
."I call upon the council."Divy Antardrshti said calmly as his hand were clasped as if praying, one of his feet was up resting on his knees like a flamingo.
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
*Shh*!
Magic teleportation circles appeared on each of the remaining eleven platforms, a multitude of figures walked out, each wearing a red cloak with golden insignias on the back.
One of them looked different than the other's, this person's robe was red with one blue strip going down the chest, this person was standing on the platform marked number 1, probably being the leader.
."Number 9, why have you called upon the council, you better have a good reason for this, me and wife were busy trying to create a child.""
A Manly voice came from one of the robed figures, he was standing on platform number 8, meaning stronger and higher ranked than Divy.
Divy completely ignored him making him angry, Divy looked at the perceived leader."Aoimi, I trust that you are already aware of the situation at hand."He said with an expression of serenity.
This person the leader named Aoimi seemingly frowned."Yes, I am aware number 9, but haven't we decided not to be calling upon names, please call me leader or number 1."She said with a serious tone but a warmer under meaning was felt, he gaze soften.
."I understand, forgive me, I will inform the others if you don't mind, now, a large army of undead creatures have invaded our country, it is happening all over but, the most serious threat is in the state of Aarav, I have sensed that the leader of them, even I would not be able to even get close to him before I'm dead."Divy said calmly looking at the other figures, his small fragile body blowing gently in the wind.
.""Ho, undead, that's intriguing, I haven't heard about them in a long time"".Number 6
.""Is that really what you should be focusing on number 6, he said that even he would not be able to take on this undead leader, that is saying alot on it's own."Number 5
Number 8 smirked."That is simply because he's weak, mere number 9, bet I can go and take them all down myself."He said, he seemed to have an immense hatred for the calm old man.
Number 10 to 12 felt insulted and attacked by that, Number 1 Aoimi frowned at what he said."Number 8 I suggest you watch your tone, we all know that you are number 8 and he's number 9 not because you are stronger than him, you were simply lucky you were here first, Former number 4."She said almost mocking him.
."....."Number 8 clenched his fist and his jaws, his eyes turned red under his cloak.'It always that, they always have to bring that up, they are all againt me, always taking his side.'
Number 1 spoke next."Alright, forget about this nonsense, the undead seems to be invading all 13 states(Fictional, it has I think 28 or 29) so we will individually deal with the 12 with our students then gather up to deal with the final together, the Aarav state, oh yeah, some please try to get in contact with the temple of Shiva or even Indra, we have to be prepared for worse now move out!."She said commanding.
*Shhhh*×10
10 of them disappear, leaving behind only two, Number 1 and number 8 , number 8 clenched his fist."Big sister why do you take his side all the time, just because he is your former master doesn't mean you have to talk down to me to make him feel better about himself, I am higher ranked than him."He said angrily.
."Hmpm, what I want to know is why you hate him so much, he had never done anything to you, or anyone for that matter, when we were children he even saved your life, our life, he taught me everything I know, I will not tolerate any disrespect to him, understand that, now go and fulfill your duties."Aoimi said as she to quickly disappeared.
Number 8 was left feeling unsatisfied."Why I hate him....because I love you big sister, I never wanted this stupid wife, I love you, every since you asked him to be apart of our organization you have not looked at me since, I hate him, hate him to the bones."He said now that she was gone, he didn't have the courage to say it to her face.
*Shh*
He disappeared in a blast of speed, he still has a duty to fulfill.
All around the country it was being put on lock down, as similar scenes as the disaster in Aarav took place, millions of humans were being killed off by the hour, people were committing suicide, killing their families then themselves, all sorts of genocides.
But as it seemed hopeless for the humans in India 12 Supreme beings dropped down in every continent but Aarav.
In one state was number 12, his cloak blew in the wind as he floated about the state seeing the carnage of the undead, he focused in on one, it was a large undead skeleton bigger than the other's but besides the size everything was the same, it seems to be in command of the other's.
The big skeleton looked up at him."Magic human, why so high up, come down."It said as it grin, it raised its hand to the sky.
.""Fire Magic:Blazing Inferno"".
*Fhhh*!!!
At the skeleton's command a torrent of Flames rose up covering the sky's in a blanket of heat, Number 12 swiftly moved out of the way falling to the ground on his feet.
."Woah, I've never seen a skeleton that can use Magic, that's interesting, it's so strong too."Number 12 said to himself as sweat coat his face from the heat.
."Kekekek that's more like it, now I can see your pitiful existence."The skeleton chuckled as it said.
Number 12 frowned, he was tired of being disrespected, everyone disrespects him because he is the weakest of the 12, but why, just because he is the weakest of the 12 most powerful humans in India doesn't mean he's weak.
."Human, I am the undead Captain of the undead soldiers."It said as it pointed to number 12.
Number 12 hummed in thought."I am number 12, one of the 12 Great Magicians, Hundred Treasure Sky King."He said as his eyes flashed.
.""Let's battle"".×2
~~
*½ Hour Later*
Around the country shit was still going down, battles of epic levels were still taking place, by now 7 states were already saved, though not much of it, not suprising for some, number 9 was among the ones that had finished.
It was Number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9, the other's were having a little trouble with their own foes, as right now Number 8 was frustrated, he had just received word that 7 of them already completed their mission and number 9 was among them.
."Dammit that bastard, he must have gotten a weak one, ain't no way, he can't possibly be that strong, this is unfai-."He complained but was interrupted by a blade coming at his neck, he leaned back like he was doing limbo dodging the sword.
*Fhhh*!!
*Siiii*!
*Boom*!
A magic slash came from the sword and cut a build in a parallel line as the top slide of like a neck.
.""Heh, stop being distracted before me human, don't make that mistake again, it will cost you your life, if I wasn't having so much fun, I would have killed you just then"".
An undead said, it looked almost exactly like the one number 12 was fighting, but it had a sword in hand and didn't seem to be using any magic so far, it looked like a true swordsman.
."Damn, stop being arrogant you dead piece of shit, now die...again!."Number 8 said as he got into a martial arts stance, a green magic glow covered his fist with power and his arms bulged, he punched out.
*Fhhh*!
*Boom*!!!
*Tin*!
The undead met his fist with his blade as sounds of metal clashing resounded with might, they then went back into a deadly stalemate battle for dominance.
Though the 12 great magician were fighting hard, they were of course not the only ones fighting, even some ordinary soldiers were fighting with top Class military weapons, the churches own warriors were fighting around the country but more focused on saving lives.
Shiva even had Mahabali direct his temple of Shiva to fight, everything was going well so it seems he did not need to personally descend, it would cause a bit of trouble with the treaty of God's.
Converging upon one state were the seven of the 12 that had finished their fight, Number 3 spoke."Leader don't you think we should just go ahead to the Aarav state already, we alone should be enough, the other's don't seem to be a in a position to help anyone as they can't even defeat their current opponents."She said with a frosty tone, it seems more put on than anything but she must have her reasons.
."No, that is a stupid idea, this foe seems to be extremely strong, Instead of underestimating it we should instead overestimate it, let's not have any regrets incase anything goes wrong, we must always be sharp."Aoimi said seriously as she looked on to the distance calculating something.
Divy Antardrshti smiled with a satisfaction.'My student, you have become a great leader, imagine it feels like only yesterday when you begged me to train you, now you have made me very happy.'He thought as he looked at his disciple.
."Alright, I have located all the ones that truly need help right now, it seems it is only Number 12 and 11, the other's are handling themselves, so split into two teams, me, Number 4 and 6 will go to number 12, the rest of you go help number 11, then we will come back right here to plan our next move, Move Out!."Aoimi said disappearing into the distance with her selection.
The others disappeared as well.

*7:35pm*
*Night*
Everyone was in the dining room at this moment, luckily Rias parents were rich so they had a larger table brought in so everyone could sit, it also included Serafall.
Zeoticus was in amazement at this line up."Damn 14, you must be some kinda God..uh, oh yeah, that's right, but damn, you're doing pretty Good."He said, it would be a lie if he said he wasn't jealous in a way, all of them were powerful as well, extremely so.
."Well, dad, I know you guys are men and this is what you do, but shouldn't you have some reservations as a father, at least in front of me to pretend to be angry."Rias said with a pout hugging her breast.
Zeoticus rubbed his head embarrassed."Oh yeah, *ahem* this is completely disgusting what I'm seeing, how could you do this to my daughter, she deserves to be your only lover."He said with a serious expression but gave Haile a secret wink and thumbs up.
."Hahaha, that is pretty funny actually, aren't you also the same, Venelana deserves to be your only lover yet you also got a harem, she is someone's daughter as well."Haile said with a smirked stirring a glass of wine in his hand.
Zeoticus face stiffen up."Well, ah, there you have it Rias, I lost, there is nothing I can do, I've tried my best."He said clearing his throat taking a glance at Venelana sitting besides him staring into space in Haile's direction.
Zeoticus gained a bit of a sweat on his forehead.'Maybe she is angry by that, damn I'm definitely sleep out our bedroom tonight, damn you Haile.'He thought with a sigh.
Meanwhile In Venelana's mind she didn't even hear anything that was going on outside, she was thinking of what she was going to do, she can't continue on living like this, she must find a time to tell Zeoticus and soon.
."So Darling, are we all going to just sit here and act like nothing is going on in the world right now, though it is not high intensity the nature behind the beings can spell disaster for the entire world."Hera said with a calm tone as she ate a piece meat.
Other than Tiamat and Haile all the other's were confused, Venelana came back to her senses, Haile rest his head on his hand."It seems like Hades, the God of Death has taken up arms against India, he sent undead, now millions of human in India are already dead as well."He said casually like taking about the weather.
Zeoticus face turned pale in shock, the maids behind them as well, they couldn't believe it, Venelana gained a strange expression, it wasn't only her, Rias, Tsubaki, Akeno all of them.
They glanced at Haile who was still calm, some glanced at Hera, why could they feel that Haile had something to do with it, that it had something to do with the Greek Pantheon incident.
."Also one thing, Zeoticus, before you receive word from the Hindu Pantheon to help, the devils cannot help anyone, that would be trust passing and against the treaty, so all we can do is sit back and wait, so don't think I heartless."Haile said looking at the wall.
Venelana looked uncomfortable.
~~
All around the world and dimensions the powerful beings bared witness to this scene, most of them were very very confused as to what Hades was doing, this was against the treaty.
So most of them sent out spies to investigate, what came back was some truly shocking news to all, everyone was stupefied, from the angels to the devils, to the other Gods, even the likes of Shiva who even wanted to know the reason, why...the Greek Pantheon was...destroyed, all of it!.
Now it started to make sense to some, Maybe it was the Hindu Faction that attacked first and destroyed it, that's why Hades is now retaliating, the only ones who could just silently destroy a Pantheon like that is the Hindi Faction which has Shiva and Indra.
Some had headaches, the days of peace are over it seems.
