A short story from the Tyrant Wars
In the pits of darkness, fiery flames rose as the dark settlements of Hell stood around the one palace of all meaning, the Palace of Darkness. Standing with high pillars on and beside the building, a large plaza in the center with a large straight wall like building that protects the front of it. Millions of armored troopers stand before the palace, dark heavy armor material that is not of any mineral that humans know of, stood before the place with a large variety of weapons, in lines and columns, having dark horn helmets with a T like visor, all dark as they stood with their arms to their sides and hands staring upright. Hell Pawns. These are the foot soldiers of Hell, a dark hair guy standing before them in his dark armor, having no helmets but wearing blinds over his eyes. His horns stick out his head, pale in his skin and three piercing on his lips, saying to the large armies, “Go my soldiers! The time of the end has come, go and fight for me! Deploy and wreck death all about, you are my pride and fools, now go!” The Pawns really didn’t say anything to it, all disappearing in a flash, having a teleportation power to leave Hell. Satan just laugh through his blinded eyes, although he can see though it, coming towards me. I stood there calmly as he said, “Eliza… Are you ready for war as well, my dearest… important vampire and demonical death eater?”
“Like you dare ask me about it?” I teased at him, just smiling as he shock his head to say, “You are such dear. Now you better go tell your husband about your… departure for a long service for me.”
“Alright.” I said to him, turning away from the palace and heading into the buildings all around it, “But don’t forget, I don’t like serving, I’m doing my own things.”
“Fine by me.” he added, his bat like wings prying through his skin and showing as he took off into the dark eerie skies. I just stop to glance at myself in the watery puddles that did not left the area. I had black hair with a mix of white in it, long to my back, some of my hair cover at bit of my right eye, a dark dress I was wearing with white trimmings around the dress’s outline with dark gloves and high heel boots under the large puffy skirt I was holding up with my two hands as I walk away from it, my eyes red. I just sighed, knowing that it was going to be endless of my existence. Why is that? I just glance at myself at the puddle and continue walking my noble stance, raising my hands on the skirt and walking further into the stone pathways of the entire settlements, staring straight ahead, limitlessly glancing at the entire structure of the houses. The world wasn’t of my concern, well the top part of it. The side that God had created.
“Satan…” I thought to myself, “What is the purpose of this contract…” Oh yes, the contract that I’m referring to… Well you see… It’s like Satan, or Lucifer, said to me, I’m an important figure Queen of a Demonical Vampire Death Lich type… being.
My entire history of myself, is very little. My purpose in this place and time is very unknown to me actually. The only thing I was ever good at was being the Queen of all Vampires, at my young age. Being the heir to my last mother and father, whom I have no clue about, had made me the successor of the throne in my vampire life. Rival different classes of vampires tried to kill me, do anything to get me off the throne… Only to find themselves consume, ripe of, deprived, or even decimated by me in all ways of horrors. Everything I was doing, every person of darkness, or anything that at least know me a bit, bow down to my supremacy.
There was so much people that wanted my marriage in hand, especially to the guys, although they just wanted the power that they could wield… And besides… Something else made me say otherwise. And what is that you question? Well, let’s just say they were just uninteresting, insignificant, rather dull, mentally retarded, stupidly greedy, and all other bullshit that wants a ******** girl like myself would die by my hands. Yes, I killed many of my husbands… Note, I won’t tell how much I killed though. Yes, I’m also a ******** insane to this point, but the thing was, Satan arrived a few years later in my lands to offer this contract. It was actually a simple one, to be with the side of something worth fighting for, or to die… I would have except the challenge of a fight, although something else told me otherwise in my chest to side with him instead, knowing that half of the population of males were killed by me anyways within my Vampire countries that I reign under. When Satan was… rather joyful at this, he arrange a marriage to make me marry a man of high class nobility within all of Hell… But I rather say- No. I won’t say much. Why am I talking to myself in the head anyways…
“Eliza!” shout one someone as I turn my head slightly to the left, glancing at a soldier fully covered in armor. It was one of the Hell Pawns that were the common foot soldiers of Hell’s army. I simply sigh to turn to them, questioning, “What is it?”
“You were planning to head right off the ledge into the river… Milady.” he said, rather scared in his voice. I just glance at my footing staring at the watery slow and calm lightly surface blue non gleaming water as I just stare at him to say, “Thanks…”
“The lord is waiting for you in his estate, milady.” he said, bowing lowly with one of his hands across his chest and the other to his side, acting like a butler but neither the less, I went pass him and glance at a black iron spear like fence. There was a small space between the stairs towards the doorway of the mansion and the gate, the sides having multiple gardens with flowers of all sort, dark in color though as stone pathways lead all about, the center having a fountain that splat out water through a normal looking Roman like design of some pillars. I just simple glance at the hedges that were right next to the pathways and a bit away from the fountain, walking quietly around them to glance at two Hell Pawns at the gateway, bowing to open the doors. There was a light that blurred me a bit, raising my hand up a bit to cover it as multiple wearing plaited laid maids and dressed up butlers with suits were walking all around the place, cleaning the mansion up from floors to picking up materials and so on. The Hell Pawns were also wondering the place, as if this was a palace (but since it is of nobility, it also makes sense). I just sigh to only think to myself, “And this was the same thing…” By same thing, I mean, this always happens… Everyone in Hell, houses, mansion, palaces, had servants to aid their cleaning efforts… Even if it was only a mere task. Rather lazy of us, but then again, this is Hell. Well, the civilized part of Hell. Hell is broken down into multiple layers, the Realms of Death, the Gateway to Hell, Hell’s Palace, the Inferno, multiple other layers… Although too much details to explain. I just walked up the stair, holding onto my dress and using my left hand to hold the railings, rather surprise to find it really smooth to rush my hand against. Reaching the second level of the house, I only stop to remember some… Old fond memories.
“Milady…” said another Hell Pawn, “Your husband is on the patio.” he bowed and left as I just said, “Thanks…” but rather softly.
I just left a frown on my face, either disgusted at the fact of something I knew rush through my head or with sorrow. I stop to hear a voice in one of the rooms, saying words rather softly as if it was a girl. Actually it was a girl. I open the room quickly to glance at a white hair girl, pale skin, dark eyes, ad dark material armor. I notice who she was instantly.
“Envy?” I question, wondering what she was doing in here because she was one of the generals. She just glance up at me, rather on the patio as she stood on the railing.
“Oh…” she said, rather softly but reassuring, “Hey Eliza.”
“What are you doing here…? I thought you were leading the armies-”
“No, that was Greed’s and Gluttony’s jobs.” she said, coming up to me as I just sigh to say, “Welcome to my mansion then-”
“I know you are having mixed feelings.” she said out of the random as I just glance at her, rather mad at that comment.
“Excuse me?” I question to her. She said nothing for a moment, just staring at me as I stare back to her, hearing her say again, “If you dare do what I think you are planning to do like the others… You will receive problems with all of Hell-” I stop her as I said my line, not thinking, but saying what was coming from my, quote and quote, heart.
“I am just here just to seek out a reasonable control for my desires of alliance-”
“Alliance?” she said, rather ungrateful at me, “What do you believe in?!” I just open my mouth to only find nothing coming out of my mouth, grunting at the distasteful feeling. It was something I lacked… Something to hold onto that was worth my time… Something to chase and chase for ever.
“You are just another person that would use someone’s life, finding it pathetic when it comes to your taste, and tossing it away. Do you have any sympathy, any desirable holds, values, to anyone or anything!?” Envy said, rather shouting at it to me as I just stood there, feeling emotions of anger rushing through my veins, my teeth grunting and my eyes glowing red.
“Do you know what you dare say to an ally?” I question her, my emotions getting the better at me as she said, “Then what do you dare suggest me to do!? ********, I have no time for this, I have-”
“If you have such a strong distaste of one race, why don’t you date a ******** girl at the very least of sense!!” Envy exclaim, my body planning to turn to the door’s knob to only stop and hear the words echo through my mind… It was actually much more reasonable to do that… I turned around to Envy, saying to her, “That would be a good idea…” I turn to Envy and did actions I dare not speak within my thoughts… or memories because it will forever haunt me. I left the room after thirty minutes, licking my lips off of something as I just had my fangs out, knowing that I suck blood off of someone. The Hell Pawns just glance and rise their guns.
“The vampires dare betray-”
“I didn’t betray yet…” I said to them calmly, my vision engulf in red like the blood that I was licking off my hands… The bright red gleaming color that reflected off of it… The strong taste of… Death. My mind was still in my control, not going insane as it quickly erupt a large amount of gust throughout the entire place, destroying and…
“Why?!” question a voice, glancing at my so called Hell noble I married… Or was married to. I didn’t glance at him, his head… in seconds off of his body because of the gust. The gust that arouse around me rush throughout the entire mansion and killed almost every single one of the people in this forsaken horse, the blood running off the wall. I just smirk at my work, glancing at the door behind me that reveal itself. Here lied Envy in a small blanket that warp around her body’s important areas, frightened and blood rushing from her neck. I just looked into her eyes and glance at the confused tears and anger in her eyes, just sighing, my eyes closing to quickly walk away. I have broke… Another contract. Arriving in front of the mansion lied some twenty Hell Pawns, just baring my teeth to have the strong gust rush past through them, splitting off into three, slicing the bodies into slices. I could have cared less. I just walked on the bloody floor with my boots, hearing the little watery sounds as I step through it, the gore and ripe bodies lying all around.
“You can’t decide for s**t.” I said quietly to myself, shaking my head as I took out a locket, sighing even more deeply. I look at it to only stare at a burn picture with me as a little child with two bodies but faces smudge by fire covering their faces, only holding back my sorrow in my eyes as I said, “Why can’t I hold onto something!?”
“Because…” said a voice, turning slightly to my right as I see another white hair girl, but rather in bounds this time. Her pale skin barely showed by it’s blindfold and wrappings and chain all around her body. She reminded me of someone, but I have no clue who.
“Because?” I restated, wondering what she was going to say.
“You do not wait for it.” she simply answer. I didn’t really like that answer, being bashful enough to send my gust right at her but to find a light shocking dark red shield appearing to stop it in it’s tracks.
“Who-” I was interrupted when she said, “You do not wait for it to come to you-”
“Yeah… Because they are all pathetic.” I added, hearing her continue on, “No… You did not have any feelings for them. You pick them up because they wanted you, but you did not want them. You cannot wait for someone that can love you by all means, and you loving them by all means, holding the special feelings with one another and so on…” I was going to say something till those words actually pierce through my heart, gripping at my chest as I said sorrowfully, “Yet when would I know!? I am never accepted or-”
“Have something to believe in… Believe that you can find such as one, believe that you can be loved as one.. You are not alone, you are making it feel like you are.” I said nothing from what she was saying, only bending a slight bit from my stood stance to only begin to feel tears roll down my eyes, my throat choked up.
“You better get going…” she said to me, looking up to her, “The soldiers will check here in a few minutes… They will be curious at what has happen…”
“I have created myself in many oppressing situation… But this is the worst…” I said, trying to regain myself together as I stood back up again, not thinking much of what to do to escape.
“I will teleport you away… To the nymphs, unicorns, ents, mer people, and all other creatures that are neutral… Sort of.” the white hair girl said, glancing to her and asking her, “You are rather young… Have I ever seen you-”
“There is no time to talk now… I will make you through this… But hear this, just wait for a couple of years… Marry the king of the place’s fractions, and you will have what I told you. You will wait, then kill the so called king. You will wait till-” she stop only to shake her head, “No… I won’t say. You will know when it is time…” I just stood there rather having a small shook following through my body, making me more depress.
“Eliza… You must hold onto what you believe in…” she said to me, a little light blinding my vision as I question one more time.
“What is this belief I’m suppose to hold onto?”
“Knowing someone is out there to love you, even if you have not meant… It is Fate and undying notice of that always happening. Hold onto that…” I couldn’t remember what happen after that, the light finally engulfing me as I went unconscious, trying to think about who that girl was. I had escape Hell, reawakening next to a clear sparkling pond with lots of forests and nature all around the place, shaking my head only to see what she told me. The ents were walking all around, the nymphs and faeries talking about as they were somehow okay with me being around the place.
“Aren’t you Eliza?” question an armor knight, “Yes… And who question about it.”
“The king of these lands… He wishes to speak to you.” I just got up and followed the knight, knowing what she told me was true. And I also grew a strong trust of her words of holding onto my belief of someone out there that will love me… And I will get the chance to see them whenever it comes… I didn’t question it anymore, knowing what I must do for the future… Although… The time of that dwindles by my actions in the past… Why would I say that now? Well… You wouldn’t know now would you. In time though, in time… Oh yes, by the way… Hell secured the area I killed, noticing all the dead bodies and declaring that Vampires were now the enemies to them, not noticing something of why I would do that though. I still had my title with all means of fear of my name. Only one person, though, that I heard of was capable of fighting against me… A person name RedShadow, some Vampire Prince that had powers like mine… Although, I have no clue about this person. The only thing that I know of was that my actions from Hell… Was the start of my paradox that I set myself up in… What paradox? Let’s just say, that I know now that I should hold onto what I believe in really… But can I believe in something that always hinder me to bit my tongue, to stall my undying nerves at what I’m lying to? I’m using blind fate, I’m just a lonely queen with nothing to…Nothing to… Hold dear to this so called, quote and quote… Heart… Nothing… The sadness is always so cold… So very, very cold…
