The team had been on high alert, for there were no attacks immediately after the initial contact, but what was worse, is after all the lead that was pumped into it's head, the beast was still going. They didn't see it anymore but as it was, they were on the move. "We have got to find that Swiss team." a few groans made Righty turn around and give them a look, as she was mentally scolding each one of them as if they were 3 years old. On cue almost "Yes mommy....." they grunted out "Don't call me mommy" turning and heading on she made her way through the twisting laberynth of caves.

"Righty?" "yeah billie?" "Is this a catacomb?" "Um-" "No Billie" White Out piped up "A catacomb is a burial chamber, usually und catholic churches of old to house crusaiders as an honor or their Cardnals or people of stature. However some underground cities had to adopt something as they couldn't bury their dead like normal people. So they built huge chamber rooms where they housed the dead. Then there was the extreamly wealthy, most had mosuliums however the houses that also housed secrets that was protecting great and terrible things. The illuminati for example. They are house under a great manor that most don't know about or where it is. Some believe they are under the Vatican however" at this point Righty was rolling her eyes and mouthing off to Father Raw who was trying to keep from laughing. "That is impossible as yes they do work for the church, but they are also condemed by them because they do not do it the Lords way as the church says. However they get a nice heafty chunk of change for doing the dirty work...." Continuing on and on and ON AND ON Billy finally slapped him across the back of the head "A simple yes or no with a sentence maybe two would have been enough. That's why I asked Righty. Your the one I go to for finals. SHe is for everything else...." the team laughed as they almost saw White Out blush. "Sorry...do you guys know the origon of sorry?" "shut up!" they responded "Sorry".

Chuckling Righty calmed down and looked around the corner. "s**t....found the Swiss team...." the team dreaded her flat tone. That was never a good sign. Walking cautiously up to an alter with her team hot on her heels, Righty checked the bloody mess of body parts and guts strewn out. Picking up a receaver she touched a few buttons which made the screen light up and showed her their last minutes. Pure chaos, confusion as screams iminated from the com. The last thing saw was a large mouth with even larger teeth clamp down on someone's head. "Delicious." flatly "Well team these panicky green backs die-" "Something's here" Raven interrupted only to have boulder somehow get her down and his gun in the way as something chomped down. Letting bullets fly the thing was turned into swiss cheese in the matter of 10 seconds.

Then it was a very controled chaos. Each member knew where each other was at all times. Boulder was, anchored in the back making short work of everything that he saw. Raw was excersizing spirits or stealing them and throwing them back out for powerful attacks. It wasn't till Raven was taken by the familiar tail. "ow." quietly as blood seeped from her abyssal lips. Time stoped for Righty as she saw her sharp shooter get sucked into a dark cave opening. "RAW YOU GOT POINT" "ROGER" and Righty took off "The hell your taking her." she growled as she ran after her girl. "she's MINE!" hissing she disappeared into the shadows.

She saw jack s**t in there but that didn't stop her. "Dragon eyes" and her eyes slitted down reptilian style she saw perfectly everything. It was her favorate command so she beyond mastered it. Seeing the beast walk up to a nest where there was a baby it was going to feed her team member to it. She actually thought it was sweet as she like more the deamon babies. THey were cute. however right now it wasn't in the mood to lose a team member to it. "ARCH ANGEL DIVINITIES!" holding out her left hand a black spot nicely hidden on her palm slowly tribal tattooed out so it covered her palm, fingers, and back of the hand. At the same time the beast looked over as a lance nailed it in the head. A score 5 arch angels came down and made short work of the two. it was a blood bath before they disappeared. Putting on a glove to hide her secret she walked over and slowly revived her team mate. "Shhhh" when Raven's eyes flew open white then the brown eyes rolled from different directions to meet where they should be. "Lets go." With a nod the two headed out, Raven holding onto Righty as she couldn't see.

Making it back out Raven dropped to one knee and took out the small sprite-like deamon that was bugging them. Smiling they patted her on the back and talked a bit while Raw and Righty walked off. "So are you going to talk to me about your left hand?" "No..." "Is it for the final battle? Is it because your always holding the right hand of God?" "Yeah." and walked off. "Let's go team" Priest walked slowly after her sighing and shaking his head. Ross went up to his sister and gave her a warm oblivious smile. Smiling back to her older brother her heart broke as she knew in the end he would be hurting. In the end, she will finally get to protect him like he did so many years ago.

Making their way deeper and deeper, they were battling things that Steven King would have wet dreams about for book ideas. There were many times that everyone had to get revived, Priest included. They found many old artifacts long been lost, including the holy grail itself. Tying it to White Out Righty smiled "Your book knowledge will know how to explain this one to the world, or keep it a secret." patting him "You'll know what to do with it when the time comes." Nodding she turned and walked on.

It wasn't till a few days later, that's how massivly huge the enterence of this world was, did they actually get to the City of the Eternal Damnation. When they walked in they looked around shocked. It was.....beautiful. THe only other city that could come close to the Architecutral splendar was the Vatican itself. They stood their shocked as there were fountains, there were beautiful budding trees, pools of crystal clean water, white marble roads. The works. It was exquisite. Walking in the team actually was embarassed to be there afraid they would drag in dirt. Then it happend. There was a deamon infront of them.

Righty raised her gun but something made her hesitate which got the team's attention. It looked at them with uninterest in it's eyes and walked on. "look at them." Billie quietly looked around seeing more and more deamons. "They...look...." "Drugged?" Ross tried to wrap his head around this, then the unexpected happend "No Look at them, they almost look at peace in here and normal out there" Boulder, the resident ox pointed to them on the outside having a fit that the team was in the city but the minute they crossed over they were at peace. "It's solice" Raw said as he walked up to one and bowed to it, which it bowed back and went on it's way "This is The Firstborn's area of peace and solice" turning around looking at the team. "Even Satan himself needs a bit of peace. Even God does from all the woes of the world? Well look this is The Firstborn's. This is where it can rest." walking back "We will not shead blood here" Righty stood up" We will rest and sleep fully here"

Three days of sleep and recharging as they got ready for the real battle. When the team was over 100% ready they headed out, immediately having to fight to get into the next chambre, happy that they rested. Making their way down slowly the stairs of stone they heard chains rattling and almost a 'purr' like sound. A purr and growl mixed togeather. Holding up a fist Righty headed forward a bit "Dragon eyes" quietly as she found the sorce. Her jaw dropped at what she saw. she didn't know how this was possible but there was a 'huminoid' there, chained up. She released the fist and the team slowly walked forward dumbly. It had no skin but wasn't bare muscle or boned. No clothes but not naked. It was...an anonamally. Even White out was at a loss for words.

It's arms were wide, chained to the arched pillars, it's feet firmly planted in a box. It hit Righty like a ton of bricks when she looked at the beast and they locked eyes "You were the first to distroy The firstborn." she look surprised as she saw the chainmail stappled down to it's head so it wouldn't slip off. It open it's mouth and sighed out as she could see a leather strap hooked in both sides of it's mouth like a snaffle bit to a horse that was being pulled back tightly. For a moment she pittied it. "Do not pity me Adara" She blinked as it knew her name that she didn't even know. "yes i was the first but I gladdly took this form to destory it's first attempt and be closer to it" it shut it's eyes and almost seemed happy for a moment then they flew open as it looked at her.

"Who are you" "The first guilded knight that never came back that remains nameless" "Righty look" they slowly shown their light at it's groin area that was cut off. not just the genitals but from the belly button to hole of the a** in a triangle shape as if not to miss anything. "For the love of Hades....." "I wanted to be like like HIM so I lost it, I took it off myself." the guys grunted and squirmed slightly making it jerk with pleasure and looking them over "Stop it team buck up" the thing calmed down.

She was learning it, whatever brought pain to others, thoughts, ideas, it lived off it. Whatever, or, whoever it was feed off pain and she could tell it was starving. "Where is The Firstborn?" "The difference between you and I is I've made peace with the situation, have you told your dearest brother?" "Righty?" "Shut it Ross, Where is HE?" "Ah I see you haven't then another thing we differ is that I at least know that we're in HIM" "Tell me where he is and-" "-You'll what? set me free?" "I was going to say give you a quick painless death but let you go and have a sport killing will work too" Then it got pissed "Oh s**t" the team scattered around as it pulled the achors out of the wall and bursted from the box. "ITS LOOSE!" "NO s**t SHERLOCK!" now it was total pandamonium.

It grabbed Righty by her throat and jumped into a crevass high within the ceiling, knocking her out. Laying her down on a bed it waits till she is awake and alert. "You want to find him. Open your eyes child your in his stomach. He's feeding off your energy, your team's. Do you not see how they are sluggish they are getting even with the rest at the City of the Eternal Damnation? You rested there so you were marked. Your now HIS toy. I can get them out, I can reguritated them back far away safe from what's to come." "How are you able to talk to me so frankly and why are you helping me?" "The beast tied me to HIS stomach and when I talk HE hears the rumbling and eats. However if I am not there HE doesn't know. HE think's I'm resting. As for why I'm helping...I didn't take this job to get closer to HIM I took it to help the remaining fighters. I'm actually the fourth fighter. You will find the fifth and sixth helpful like I am. Besides I am a knight and hold true to my code of honor" pointing to a painting he was a gorgous male with black hair and green eyes. "You know in another lifetime I would have so flirted with you" "In another life time you did, and you said you would wait for me" "Huh?" "In your past life you were my lover, the reason I took my gentials off is so I wouldn't react to another, I wouldn't desire you so bad I would go insane. Now, you must go I will get your family out. However I can't guarentee your safety after this." it was almost kind. "Okay....do it" it nodded and turned. At the mouth she called out "Wait what is your name?" "Like you I forgotten. The only way I know yours is I tattooed it to my heart" and disappeared. There were screams and then nothing. She ran to see if he went back on his word and killed them but there were no blood no bodies. "My lover?"

She found the Fifth, a samurai, and the Sixth, a barbarian that was cladded in strange furs, like the Fourth said she would. They two helped, she saw that 5 was raven topped as well but unusual pools of deep deep blue eyes that one could loose their very soul to. He wasn't as kind but was very much helpful and honorable as the Fourth. However with the Sixth she got more rest time. "Can I ask you something?" It turned, It could not speak as it's head was wrapped in leather, only sprigs of soft silver hair defied the binds. It's red eye, that was exposed looked at her softly. It had blades for hands and cloven feet. Nodding it walked up to her. "Where is the First, Second, and Third?" it lowered it's head and showed her pictures. It couldn't speak but it showed her the past. It showed her the three didn't make it. The First barely shut the door before being devoured. The Second was King Leonidas himself. He did fall at Thermopylae but, death is only the begining. He was raised up, along with his 300 men as they were the only brave enough to face The Firstborn. Their bodies were never recovered. The Third....was stabbed in the back and called out "E tu Brutis" only to be reincarnated and his Roman army taken down to the bowels of hell to fight and seal away The Firstborn.

When the illusion stopped another one came up. It was a very handsome man with silver hair and red eyes. One of the warmest smiles ever. Then there was a girl, Black curly hair and soft soft brown eyes. "Sister" the male opened his arms and the girl ran into him with an oof as she huged him tightly. "I was your sister?" The brother looked up from Adara and looked at Righty. As if the current anomoly was talking through the illusion "You have been tied to every warrior, the samurai you were his hand maiden, me you were my sister and to the Fourth you were his lover. To the first, he was your slave, the second you were his advisor, to the third you were his gladiator. Each and everyone you were tied to us teaching us what we needed to know to fight from the First and learning how to finish it off being you are the last. You are our only hope." each one of the 6 fighters showed up with her by their sides. the first 3 she standing proudly by the male. THe Fourth she was snuggled to, the Fifth, bowing to, and Sixth arm around her shoulder. She nodded as she realized what was to come. Sitting down each male left their version of her and flew into Righty's head. Then each 'her' Flew in giving her an amazing knowledge and a spliting headach. Passing out she had to put it all togeather her own way.

Waking the Sixth was gone. His job was done. Sitting up she felt better and was ready to go but there was an unusal locket. It was a triangle diamond shape. Pointy at the top and bottom. Opening each door she saw her on one side the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth on the door. This was his last gift. THeir strength to go on when she thought she would give up. "I won't let you guys down." Getting up and leaving she pressed on. Getting down to the final chamber she saw a seat at the top of a long stairwell. Looking up she was ready for the final battle, till she saw it. "No...."

The team woke up in their own beds, alone. "No where is Righty!" They all freaked out and for once, paniced. Running down the hallways to the briefing room there was Priest looking solem. "Her left hand, was the curse. Being the Right hand of God ment that she always was holding his right hand with her left. Each time she used it more and more tattoos grew on it. when she finally was fully covered she would be God but she also would only have one attack left that would kill everything and right even God's only mistake. She was suffering such great pains as she was a mortal with power that no mortal should have to bare." They looked at him oddly. White out took a timid step forward "Priest your making no sense." "The fighter we saw. She is now one of them to protect us. She is now the undead. She is now....Gone...I don't feel her anymore." They jumped as Ross rushed the Priest pissed off. Boulder could hardly hold him back.

The next few months they delt with the news as best as they could. Till one day in the auditorium they were getting Debriefed about the mission when the lights flickered. Priest was ready as he was the best against ghosts. The lights flickered off then on and there was all Seven warriors standing tall. All the way they should look with bodies strewed out infront. "Put us at ease then put us to rest....We hurt" Righty smiled "We just want peace as you are now all safe. White Out blinked but knew. "I can do that" He got the Holy Grail and filled it with water. Pouring it over the different bodies it restored them from mangled flesh to normal bodies as if they all just had passed quietly in their sleep. Even the first few were fresh. When he got to Righty's he was amazed by the tattoos that was tribal on her hands but everywhere else was angel script. "Go ahead. as beautiful as it looks, I'm ready for peace" He nodded and cleaned her body. "Thank you, please...be good to our bodies. I'll miss you all but I have my family now." As she held onto her friend, lover, and true brother. "Fare thee well...." she smiled as they faded out leaving seven bodies behind, each with a peaceful look on their faces.

In the Underworld. "I think in the next life I want something a bit more peaceful" She smiled to her three friends. The samurai looked at her. "When have YOU done anything peaceful" "When she's asleep" The brother piped up in her somewhat defense "No...when she's eating" Her lover teased "Uh guys I still can hear you" King Leonidas came up "When she was writing letters to the three of you missing you guys dearly" they all quieted down and smiled. Nodding "Then a peaceful life it is" Her brother finally broke the silence as they stood before Hades who welcomed them for a well deserved rest before sending them out.


What will the next life have instore for the four? Stay tuned for more to come!
