James was on the phone with Ashley. He was on top of a building waiting for the team.
Ashley: So today's the day. Be prepared, this could take a while.
James: Yeah. I'll call you back later when they are hopefully here.
Ashley: Hey, you know the plan, right?
James: Yup.
Ashley: Alright. Talk to you later.
James hung up. He felt the butterflies in his stomach. He saw Lionheart fly down and Kara jump up.
Kara: So what even is your power?
Lionheart: I have the power of the Lionheart, which can do EVERYTHING.
Kara: Well then why wasn't this a one man job, come on. Be serious.
Lionheart: I already told you. Everything.
Kara: Ugh. So is this all the team James?
James: No. We will have six in full.
Kara: So this is about Yuri?
Lionheart: The evil space woman.
Kara laughed
Kara: Yeah! The evil space woman.
James: So you know her?
Kara: Yeah. Me and her go way back.
James: Oh yeah. How old are you again?
Kara: Somewhere around 5,000. I'm immortal.
Lionheart: You must have lots of knowledge.
Kara: Eh, more or less. I could tell you who killed Edgar Allen Poe.
James: Didn't he just die?
Kara: Yeah but the circumstances are uncertain.
Lionheart: Who did it?!
Kara: Probably my stupid daughter.
James: Why call your own daughter stupid? What did she do?
Kara: We haven't talked much. But she loves her chaos. She's here, in New York.
James: Really?
Lionheart: Two women that are thousands of years old in the same city? What a coincidence!
Kara: That's right. I won't be here for a while. Yuri's in space. That's where we're going, right?
James: If I was forced to guess, yes.
Kara: You are supposed to be our leader, and you don't know?
A helicopter flew above the group. Cyrus jumped out of the helicopter and landed next to everyone. His skin was made out of some sort of metal.
Kara: A titanium man?
Cyrus: Yeah. You got a problem?
Kara: Jeez, no problem.
Cyrus walked up to James and poked him in the chest.
Cyrus: B.L.A.D.E better not be baiting me into this. They offered to invest in my company. That's the only reason I'm here.
James: Good for you.
The group saw a bright light in the sky. Sky landed next to all of them.
Sky: Alright, Mr. Untouchable, Lionheart AND Cobalt on top of the same roof?! If I'm dreaming, wake me up!
Kara: Cobalt?
Cyrus: Who is this inexperienced girl?
Sky: Hey...I'm experienced…
Lionheart: Don't be a dick!
Cyrus: Oh I'm so sorry! I came here expecting professionals!
James: Okay! That's enough! Let us introduce ourselves to each other. Everyone should know me. You like to call me Mr. Untouchable. But we are a team, call me James.
Lionheart: I am the legendary Gregory Lionheart! Nice to meet almost all of your acquaintances.
Kara: Sadly I don't have any cool name, but I'm Kara.
Cyrus: I'm Cyrus West.
Sky: I'm Sky. My fans call me Stardust. Because I can do this.
Sky put her hand above herself and made some shards of light fall to the ground.
Lionheart: Pretty light…
James: And now, we are officially the Sentinels!
Kara: Hey, why are we even doing introductions now? There's only five of us. You said there was six.
Lionheart: Someone must've chickened out.
James: That's not the case. Getting our sixth member is our first mission.
Cyrus: I thought we were supposed to beat an evil space lady. Not do chores. Aren't we fine with the five of us?
James: This person is a legendary fighter and assassin. She might even be the most powerful of all of us. We aren't complete without her.
Lionheart: But nobody's more powerful than me!
James: We also need Kara to use that half-demon physiology of hers.
Kara: What?
James: Most demons can get to hell, correct?
Kara: Well I think. I haven't been there in a while. I can't use magic to get there though.
Cyrus: Well now it's time for you to take a trip back. Chop chop.
Kara: Alright then.
Kara shoved her hand in her waist bag that was attached to her belt. She pulled out some sort of key. She held it and her eyes turned red. She summoned some demon magic into it and dropped it on the ground. As soon as the key hit the ground a portal opened showing the key on the ground of hell's grim landscape.
Kara: Now there is an exit in hell that alive souls can pass through. So this key is a one way ticket. We'll have to get out a different way.
Lionheart: That's not a problem. Let's go already!
Lionheart jumped in, then Kara, then Cyrus, and then James.
Sky: Alright, you are the youngest of these legendary heroes. Don't disappoint them! You got this Sky.
Sky took a deep breath and hopped in.

There was a huge chair sitting in the west kingdom. The creature sitting atop the chair had the eyes of a mosquito, and a mosquito's mouth like a rhinoceros horn. He had horn antennas on the top of his head, and a red and black spiderweb imprinted crown with a skull logo. With four arms on the outside of his body, and six smaller arms on the inside. His body looks like rotten flesh that's falling apart, but also so stable at the same time. He has a ripped dead flesh ridden body with red and black spiderwebbed kings clothes. The king's clothes look like a cross between armor and clothes. The clothes look like they were made out of bronze that has rusted over. He had 8 spider legs at the bottom of his body. Yuri walked in the door. The demon king stayed silent.
Yuri: Hello Beelzebub.
Yuri bowed to him.
Beelzebub: Very nice to meet you again Yuri.
Yuri: I'd like to request some of your forces. I have people who need to be wiped clean from existence.
Beelzebub: Well I'd be more than happy.
Beelzebub laughed quietly to himself.
Beelzebub: Do what you need. Do you have a payment?
Yuri had Dradado bring in two unconscious humans.
Beelzebub: Good, but not enough.
Two other men came in with two unconscious humans each. One was just holding them. He was muscular and of african american heritage. He had a mask and had some armor for gloves and around his legs which were covered by jeans. He was shirtless, which revealed some sort of purple core in his chest. The other was holding them in the air telekinetically. He was wearing all black with a big black scarf.
Beelzebub laughed maniacally.
Beelzebub: Sufficient.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
The Sentinels were listening to Beelzebub and Yuri's conversation.
Cyrus: So, our next member is somewhere past here? God I knew this was a bad idea.
James: And that was your first look at Yuri.
Lionheart: She looks menacing…and evil.
Kara: 1,000 years pass and she doesn't look much different…
Sky: Is everyone just gonna ignore the huge nightmarish demon king? Yeah? Alright then.
James: He's for another day. We need to go around the gate and find a woman named Freya.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Freya was on top of a cavern spying on Yuri. She was walking with Trawl, the bodyguard from earlier. She was walking with another woman. She had some checkered clothing on and some high waist pants. Her hair was short and was a dark blue color. She had a black aura surrounding her.
Freya: Trawl? Looks like I'll get the other two.
Freya stayed out of sight and snuck past Yuri. She got to some sort of volcano.
Freya: Come on out…
A formation of rocks came out of the volcano. She looked like a woman. Her hair was made out of lava.
Freya: So you're the molten maiden? You don't like being woken up, do you?
Molten Maiden: ...I was waiting for someone. And it wasn't you. Why have you woken me?!
Freya: You were supposed to die in your sleep.
Molten Maiden yawned.
Molten Maiden: Leave me alone. Bring your business somewhere else.
Freya drew her sword and lunged straight towards Molten Maiden. She shot a fire blast upwards and threw the sword off course and out of Freya's hands. It fell into the volcano.
Freya: Seriously?
Molten Maiden shot a blast of lava at Freya. Who rolled out of the way. Freya punched the Maiden in the face and knocked her down. She grabbed Freya by the leg and pulled up some molten rock and crushed her with it. Freya broke through the rock but the Maiden threw Freya into the volcano. Freya landed on her sword and shot a fire blast at the lava in the volcano. Making the lava rise and bringing Freya up and out. Molten Maiden made rocks fall on top of Freya. Freya threw her sword up in the air and speed blitzed the Maiden. She went to punch but the Molten Maiden kicked her in the stomach. Freya fell down the volcano but she had the Maiden just where she wanted her. Freya called her sword to herself. She gained her footing and landed on the ground and caught her sword. The molten maiden's lifeless rock pieces rolled down the hill.
Freya: All in a good day's work.
Freya put her sword away and went for Yuri's other member she hadn't reached yet. He was a tan, skinny looking demon with a lot of jagged edges. His arms were long and had spikes coming off his elbows. His face had the shape of a humans but none of the characteristics. Just two big red burning eyes in the middle and he had two spikes coming off the back of his head. He had a huge opening in his stomach. Exposing his heart. He was doing some sort of ritual with some dead human bodies inside of a cavern. Freya was on top of the cavern and drew her sword and jumped down quietly to attack. She slashed at his heart but he moved out of the way and punched Freya in the face. She went flying back. He appeared right behind her and caught her by the neck. He kneed her in the stomach a couple times. He threw 1, then 2, then 3 hooks. Freya blocked the 4th one and punched the notorious demon in the face. She took her blade and slashed for his head. But his skin was too tough.
Freya: Wh-
Hellion grabbed her sword and threw it away. He punched her in the stomach and did a devastating combo. But Freya wasn't going anywhere. She grabbed his heart with her other hand and tried to crush it. The demon shrieked and turned his hand into a blade and stabbed her through the stomach. Freya pulled the blade out of her and punched Hellion and she hurt her hand. He hit her with a backfist and Freya started to feel woozy. She couldn't breathe. She fell unconscious from the lack of air. Yuri walked into the cavern. She was clapping for the demon.
Yuri: Phenomenal! That was great! Hellion, right?
Hellion: I could even sense a bit of fear in her, but you…
Hellion smelled the air.
Hellion: I smell nothing.
Yuri: Well I have an offer for you!
Yuri walked around the room. She picked up Freya's sword. There were words imprinted on it "Satan's vengeance."
Yuri: You've already proved yourself. You dominated the legendary Demon Slayer!
Yuri incinerated the weapon.
Yuri: Would you like to join the ranks of the Magvacore
Hellion: Ha! What makes you think I would be dumb enough to join your group of lackeys! I am powerful here with Beelzebub. Just where I-
Yuri: Let me stop you there. Not as a soldier. A leading commander. As a part of my team to crush an organization named B.L.A.D.E.
Hellion: B.L.A.D.E...I like that idea. The Demon Slayer?
Yuri: You guys have a lava ocean, right?
