“We who have seen war, will never stop seeing it. In the silence of the night, we will always hear the screams.” – Joseph Galloway

Distant screams could be heard in the distance as Kousei regains consciousness and grabs his sword from off the ground. “Commander” says Astari. Astari comes running up in his fully equipped battle gear always there ready to fight along his leaders side. Astari wears blue plated armor with feathers that hang off the hilt of his spear and on his war helm, both marking his authority among the ranks and close friendship with the leader.

“Are you able to fight?” says Astari

“Yes, I am perfectly able to stand and hold this sword of mine but what in blazes just happened?” says Kousei

“The enemy has launched boulders with their catapults over the hills, luckily you were only smacked smashed by a falling ally’s shield.” explains Astari

“Keep an eye out for enemy catapults and long range weapons otherwise we are gonna be wiped quick” says Kousei

“Yes, commander i am sending in the archers down the west side to flank the enemy and hopefully unman those catapults” says Astari

“Good, now all we need to do is………”Kousei looks eastward towards the forest and notices enemy reinforcements approaching. “Shift Squads five and six on my command we need to hold these while destroying those catapults” commands kousei. Astari signals for squads five and six to come. Squad five commanded by Yugi, is a filled group with lightly armored solders built for tormenting their enemies by using quick and relentless attacks. Yugi alone carries a lit dagger filled with the powers of the rings of Saturn itself to quickly dispose of his opponents. Squad six commanded by Spleen comes to the spot where they had been summoned. Spleen and his companions rumble the ground along the way carrying their heavily armored bodies and weapons that are big enough to match the size of the length of an alligator and the height and strength of a rhinoceros. These two groups put together make up enough force to take down even the toughest of enemies. “Wait, until they are all out of the forest and then destroy them, make them wish they never messed with the Marked Souls. Today is a day of blood and redemption!” Yells kousei. Soldiers all around cheer out to his battle cry releasing there energy and letting rage emerge. The soldiers get closer but kousei notices an object in the distance glowing and is unaware of what possible danger it could lead to. “All units prepare to attack the enemy and hold them” commands Kousei. Just then the glowing object in the distance gets closer and larger at an alarming rate, Kousei only happens to hear the faint noise of whispering of a phrase. The Giant Ball comes at the army. “Brace yourself its a spell!” screams kousei, but it was too late the object was within fifteen feet of the soldiers. Kousei watches the object as it were in slow motion deciding what to do, but his body was frozen in fear of the spell. Everything goes white………………..

Kousei’s eyes open and he suddenly rises out of bed. His body is full of sweat, his head filled with so many thoughts causes him to feel dazed. Kousei looks around his room wondering what just happened and how to interpret the events that flashed before him. “I need to stop staying up so late with the guys, it’s really starting to get to me” Says kousei. Kousei walks out on to his home built balcony in the town of Theron and looks up into the sky and gazes into the stars……………….
