    The Red Moon Rises and Thus Blooms Through the Darkness
    #1 Allegiance

    The attack on the island was a failure, in fact I was all initially planned to finally kill the boy who is trying to save his friend, Dan. Though she has spared his life, he must now side with her allegiance in order to see Fiona again and also Black keeping her word that Dan will stay alive if he can pass all her tests physically and mentally.
    Dan gets beaten up from one of Black’s torturers through electrocution including physical abuse
    Dan: AHHHH!!!! GAAAHHH!!!!! STOP!!! STOP IT!!!!
    Black: again with the stop it?
    Man: TELL US! HOW MANY DID YOU KILL?!
    Dan: I DON’T KN-KNOW!!!! AHHH!!!
    Man: ******** KID!!!!!
    The man cranked up the voltage and electrocuted him once more
    Black: quite resistable, yet gives into torture straight away….
    Dan: “huff” “huff” “huff”
    Tears, snot and spit began to drip from his face
    Dan: I…. sto-stop… this is pointless….
    Black: no… this is training, your lesson….
    Man: I lost a lot of good guys out there because of you…. And when we get those ******** brats you brought with you
    We’ll do the same thing to them as we do to you
    Dan’s eyes was wide open as he gave into his emotions too quickly
    He spat at his face and swung his body around as he kicked him
    Dan: ******** YOU! YOU TOUCH THEM AND I’LL ******** KILL YOU LIKE I DID TO YOUR GUYS!
    Man: YOU ******** BRAT!!!
    He takes out his bat and slams it against his body
    Dan: AAHHH!!!!!!!!
    Black: time
    Belinka: 6 minutes….
    Black: tch, most torturers would continue to torture their prisoners till their dead
    At least it was better than his first record…. Tch
    Belinka: oh yes, he gave in for about a minute or two hehe
    Dan: ahh……
    Black: you are…. “improving” you still have a far way to go
    Dan: no s**t…. What can you get from a kid like me? You got ******** weird supernatural s**t, I’m just a human, kids out there in the battlefield who get tortured die too quickly anyway, how the ******** do you expect me to get use to this?
    Black: they never had torture training before, you could be the first in the world to have torture training
    Dan: you ******** b***h
    Man: HEY!
    Black: it is okay major
    Man: tch
    Black: Dan, you can swear at me, curse me even hate me for the rest of your life but know this that I am doing this for Fiona’s sake, and yours.
    Dan: what? Now you’re being nice?
    Belinka: what she’s trying to say is that even if you hate us that much, we won’t stop and help you even “like” this
    Dan: tch, fine… but you’re expecting way too much from a kid like me
    Black: haha….. a kid like you? You and I are both the same age with different certain attributes and you managed to beat me through a suicide attempt, I can certainly expect much from yourself
    Dan: uh…. Was that a compliment?
    Belinka: she doesn’t give out that much compliments so yes, congratulations you have received a compliment from the most feared mercenary in the world
    Dan: great…. So what’s next? My body is all battered up even from that baseball bat
    Black: combat training, you and me
    Dan: great….
    Meanwhile during the training floor everyone began watching
    Every eye and every hatred coming from each and everyone of them
    Wanting to tear Dan to pieces
    Dan: great atmosphere, look’s like everyone wants to kill me. HEY! YOU WANNA FIGHT! YEAH?!
    Black: you are a bit of a jackass today
    Dan: trying to be funny?
    Black: nope
    Dan: so what? We fight? We know you can beat me I’ve fought you remember?
    Black: during a tough situation it doesn’t matter if you cannot win or lose, you must do whatever it takes to compete the mission, even if that means holding the line…. Just like what you did earlier… hmmm…..
    Dan: what?
    Black: what would Abel do?
    Dan: Abel? Why are you mentioning his name?
    Black: he trained you didn’t he? Those moves… those moves are what killed my men and also I took a few hits from. Your master taught you well
    Dan: my mentor, and my friend, I don’t know what he’d do. But the smart choice is to run
    Black: well that choice is no more… there is wall around you, there is no escape, you must hold your ground till help arrives
    So… what will he do?
    Dan: “sigh” fine…. If Abel was me… he would circle around instead there isn’t that much room so….
    First, he’ll fire the first shot then using that as a decoy he would jump from the walls with his feet gaining distance above his enemy “yeah… he moved like a ninja don’t ask me….” Then again open fire with his gun, if that doesn’t work he’d finish it off with a slash of his machete
    Dan: and that’s ordinary soldiers but you… I bet you got something in mind
    Your fast, your agile and hell you can predict a lot of things
    Instead you could properly use his momentum to your advantage or gain safe distance
    Black: I see
    Dan: look Abel’s like me too, him and I are just ordinary humans
    What he does I do, so…. Yeah I got most of his fighting style with me
    Dan: we adapt whenever the situations gets hazy
    Black: then let me help….
    Black moves in first as she throws in a one and a two
    Dan steps back blocking them as he moves in with an over arm punch
    Black steps back and blocks and holds Dan as she knees him
    Dan: (OH ******** MY BRUISES! GODDAMN TORTURE CHAMBER)
    Black: and now for the finish
    Black throws me over like a ragged doll
    And she submitted me…. Great…..
    Dan: ow….
    Black: that was quick
    Dan: hey I was bruised up
    Black: what? No adrenaline rush?
    Dan: different story… ow
    Black: come on it’s time we got a new assessment to do
    Dan: another mission?
    Yep, you guys heard it
    After joining with her I had to do a lot of intensive training…. Physical and mental
    And wow I was in real hell
    Torture training, combat training, weapons training
    And of course mental training….
    Black: you’ve been working by yourself for the whole time, so now it’s time for you to join the real thing
    Dan: what’s that real thing?
    Black: kids like us need to stick together
    We never had the choice to fight, but we did anyway
    She opens up the door as people like Dan and Black walked into the room
    Lorenzo: sup
    Dan: Lorenzo?
    Lorenzo: I’m Black’s brther
    Dan: what…?
    Lorenzo: thanks for beating up my sister haha
    Black: acquainted yet?
    Lorenzo: oh yeah
    Dan: uh….
    Black: you two fought earlier, don’t worry he has a heart
    Lorenzo: great fight dude, don’t mind having a spar with you
    Dan: uh…. Thanks?
    Black: since you two now met it’s time to meet the rest
    Kasumi Hiyako, weapons specialist, deadly, and loves to kill her enemies up close
    Kasumi: hi! Nice to meet you!
    Dan: nice to meet you too
    Black: she’s also nice, just don’t get on her bad side
    Dan: believe me…. I don’t want to get on anyone’s bad side today
    Black: Marco Quiver, heavy weapons specialist and also a heavy support on the team
    Marco: so this is the kid that beat you up Black?
    Black: not “beat up” but yeah whatever you like to call it
    Marco: “sigh” a sissy huh?
    Dan: hey! I’m not…. Hmm… come of it… never mind
    Black: Julie Richards, tech support, knowledge on pretty much everything you throw at her
    Julie: hiya
    Dan: so I got another Juno?
    Julie: oh you mean that A.B.C hacker kid? Yeah I can hack into alllllll their data bases, in fact they got a surprising history and good at remaining low
    Dan: you know about- actually never mind
    Black: Grimm which we just call him
    His your point man but also a very dangerous man
    Grimm: I serve by the Black order
    Dan: uh…. A cape, a fully exo skeleton suit and….
    Black: he uses this to fear his enemies
    Works all the time though
    Dan: so wait you guys have all this fancy equipment?
    Exo suits, swords, plasma weapons and whatnot
    Dan: I don’t have any of that stuff! Unless… well I usually go old style
    Black: Belinka
    Belinka: my, my, my I LOVED DESIGNING YOUR UNIFORM!
    Dan: uhm… you scare me lady
    Belinka: your uniform is well… I got all the materials based off from Black’s suit, with nanomachines of course
    Dan: oh…. Nanomachines, works everytime
    Belinka: composing with Kevlar and other strong plastic materials I made a combat skirt along with it!
    Dan: uh….
    Marco: pfffft
    Kasumi: awwww that’s so cute, why can’t I have one?
    Belinka: the chequered patterns are mixed with different types of Kevlar including with nanomachines
    The black shirt is also part of it as well, it is your Armor and your uniform
    This clothing will also help you adapting to any environment you are in
    Such as hot and humid temperatures, cold and winter temperatures
    Including swimming as well you’ll be dry in an instant
    Dan: so these nano machines will uh… keep me warm and cooled depending in which conditions I’m in?
    Belinka: exactly, just like how any exo nano machine suit would work!
    Dan: cool…. Uh…. I never had anything like this
    Belinka: I tried to base these designs from your previous events, one in Africa and in Australia
    Impressive indeed and I got you new make up kit and a wig!
    Marco: pfffftttttt
    Julie: wow I’m sort of jealous
    Grimm: you must be embarrassed young one….
    Dan: WE’RE THE SAME AGE!
    Grimm: a year older….
    Dan: SO WHAT!
    Belinka: this will help cover your identity including help you in the battlefield I made them myself, this was one of my favourite designs
    So I put it all on, make up, wig and the clothes
    And my god it’s…. comfy
    Red and black, how well suited for this organization
    But I look different…. A new identity….
    And bad a**… more like free
    Dan: heh
    Kasumi: you look adorrraaaable
    Dan: uh… thanks?
    Black: now that you are battle ready it’s time to discuss our assessment
    Your new mission people
    Syria
    Dan: Syria?
    Black: Tech Corp has sent us to do their mistakes…
    To fix them
    They left a prototype bipedal weapon in the hands of a terrorist group, they happen to stumble upon it during the bombings from numerous air strikes, a miscalculated target
    Revealing a piece of weaponry
    Being accessed by all enemies
    We need to destroy this weapon before they do anything to reveal tech corp to the world about their secrets but also using it for their own conquest
    Dan: wow Tech Corp is so not good with cleaning it’s own crap
    Kasumi: tell me about it that’s what we’ve been doing for a while
    Dan: “sigh” Tech Corp this, Tech Corp that seriously I’m sick of fighting those guys!
    Marco: oh right I remember now, we watched and read your file you fought that mercenary Fuji didn’t you?
    Dan: he used to be one of you guys?
    Marco: yeah! Hahaha, hated him anyway
    Dan: yeah well…. He beat the living s**t out of me till I stuck him with C4
    Black: oh and also you might need a living quarters
    Dan: living quarters?
    Belinka: this tank will be your head quarters
    Dan: what?!
    Kasumi: it’s finally ready?!
    Marco: about time!
    Grimm: yes….
    Julie: sweeeet
    Dan: what’s ready…?
    Ragnarok a giant battle tank used as an excellent living quarters and a battle station
    With camouflage and cloak technology it can go about anywhere you want it to go
    Sea, land and of course any type of terrain
    Black: as of now I will be accompanying you during this mission
    Lorenzo: and me too!
    Dan: you uh… sound lively today Lorenzo
    Lorenzo: always am, it just whenever I’m in a fight I’m always serious nice trick with those smoke grenades by the way
    Marco: well come on! What are we waiting for?! Let’s get this mission started!
    Black: agreed, everyone head out and start packing your things
    It’s time that we start this assessment
    So that was it, everyone got suited up, I got my clothes on already so I packed myself with a bunch of smoke grenades and well other grenades and also an AR-15 rifle
    But also I packed myself well…. Two pistols…. Hey come on it’s better than having one
    Then a combat knife and of course my machete
    I also packed myself an Uzi as well just in case for any suppressive fire
    And of course a well improved grappling hook attached to my right hand
    Dan: so I’m ready
    Marco: OH YEAH!!!!
    Dan: woah… Marco you are… heavily ready
    Marco: that’s why I’m the support
    Dan: fully armoured too
    Kasumi: you look like one of those ordinary soldiers I kill everyday
    Dan: uhm…. Yay?
    Everyone was well more better equipped than me but hey it’s not all about the equipment I took down a bunch of guys with advance equipment and here I am still standing today
    Let’s just hope this clothing of mine will protect me out there
    Because it’s been awhile since I’ve been out in the battlefield…
    As they headed out on a plane they all got seated
    Lorenzo: so feeling comfy?
    Dan: sort of….
    Lorenzo: come on! Everyones already kinda welcoming you!
    Dan: kind of?
    Lorenzo: hey we’re not really close to any of our adult comrades here so it’s okay
    Dan: okay? Dude I still killed your comrades in anger
    Lorenzo: and I had no connection with them so there’s nothing for me to be mad about
    Did you know each and everyone of us are special…
    Dan: yeah I can see muscle head, samurai chick, computer nerd, supernatural freak, swords guy in front of me and of course a guy who still thinks his in the medieval age
    Lorenzo: AHAHHAHAH! Dude that’s actually pretty funny
    Well… what does that make you Dan?
    Dan: me? A crossdressing freak who’s hell bent on trying to rescue his best friend
    Lorenzo: well you wanna know how I see it? I see a kid who’s itching to kill something
    Dan: tch…. Kinda yeah I guess
    Lorenzo: once you kill, you wanna kill some more
    This is what makes us feel alive
    Syria, somewhere in the middle of the desert
    Black: everybody! We will be parachuting off this plane
    Dan: oh parachuting… never done that before….
    Lorenzo: want me to hold your hand?
    Dan: ******** off
    Kasumi: don’t worry it’s easy just pull the string when we do and that’s it
    Dan: seems…. Easy enough I guess?
    Everybody runs off and began to fall
    I begun to leap off from the plane as well and all I saw was nothing…
    Nothingness
    A vast land….
    No bombs, no fire….
    No death
    Just a peaceful… free fall from the sky
    This is nice…. This is……
    HEY NOOB! PULL YOUR SHOOT!
    Dan: oh right! ********!!!!
    I pull my chute like everyone did
    We landed on the ground which…. Sort of became the ground but instead we were on top of the battle tank
    Dan: wow…. This things big
    Marco: and tall
    As we got inside we went to our living quarters
    Dan: so…. Who am I sleeping with?
    Lorenzo: you’re with me bro!
    Dan: holy s**t you scared me!
    Lorenzo: really? Hahaha
    Dan: but…. Sort of feel relieved I guess?
    Lorenzo: see we’re already becoming friends
    Dan: how the hell did we become buds so fast after trying to kill each other?
    Lorenzo: hey people become food friends after a good fight
    Dan: I wouldn’t consider that a fight more like a death match
    Lorenzo: that’s the spirit!
    Black: told you his got heart
    Dan: augh…..
