"March onwards my faithful disciples. Purge this world of sinners, and bring those who believe into the fold. Make certain to tell those heretics of their mighty warriors downfall at my hands." Said the being.
"As you command Messiah.... YOU HEARD THE WORD OF OUR GOD! BURN DOWN THIS WRETCHED WORLD!"
The Eastern Holy Empire's massive force began marching. As they did, they burned down whole cities, villages, and towns. They crucified those who refused to convert, slaughtered many as they marched onwards.
Meanwhile in Wilderplains....
The Republic scrambled to mount a defense against the incoming threat. Surveillance surveyed the Republic and found who she was looking for.
"Atrocity..."
"Ah, yes, what do you need Lady Surveillance?"
"Come with me, quickly. The enemy will be here in a matter of minutes."
Atrocity followed Surveillance into an unmarked building. Inside, Archimedes, Elder Prime, King Fog, Cerberus and a Guardian called The Boffin, had gathered.
"What is this?"
"Atrocity, I had given a blood sample of yours to Boffin here. And well...."
The odd looking guardian approached Atrocity. "I have... Perfected a serum. The Serum is "White Bear's Rage". It is a combat enhancing drug that allows the user to surpass normal levels of adrenaline, and have the subjects body create a type of adrenaline that surpasses even the elven powdered hyper-adrenaline. I call it... Hysteria-Adrenaline."
".....Okay, but I'm failing to see what this has to do with me?"
"You're the Murderous Polar Bear of Wilderness. You ability, Polar Bloodlust, naturally gives you a much higher and harsher hit of adrenaline...."
"What Boffin means is trying to say, Polaris is missing and they've brought in a heavy hitter. We need to fight him and put a stop to him using this new drug." Said King Fog looking at Atrocity.
"How long..."
"What?"
"How long does the drug last?"
"If my research on your blood is right.... Several hours on you, several weeks on anyone else. Hell, it will kill anyone but you." Said Boffin
Atrocity looked at the large syringe, then looked over his shoulder. "Suit me up, then let me loose."
The others got Atrocity suited up in his armor while outside, chaos broke loose as the Holy Empire's forces had reached the city of Carne Valley. KBar lead the Knights into battle, while the Wilderness Heroes followed Proxima's lead. The Unstoppable Wave of the Holy Empire had finally met The Immovable Mountain of Wilderplains. The Empire had thrown most of their forces at the other nations, which had falling in no time. Those who fled had been making their way to the Republic of Wilderplains when the Empire began to besiege them. Overall, the attacks of the other nations had lasted just three days, and the siege of Wilderplains was just beginning. Both sides unleashed hell upon the other, relentlessly attacking, and brutally eviscerating the other.
As the battle raged on, the Emperor of the Eastern Holy Empire, known as The Messiah, made his way onto the battlefield. KBar lunged at him, knife in hand, aiming from the throat. He flew past the Messiah and landed. "Anotha clean kill."
"No... Unfortunately for you... Not even a kill."
The Messiah grabbed KBar by the head and punched him clear back to his own lines. KBar rolled to a stop and spat out blood when Atrocity entered the battle.
"What's the situation?"
"Their leader just mollywhopped me back here. He's gotta heck of an arm on him. You sure you can handle him?"
"With Ease."
He tilted his neck and had Surveillance inject the serum into his bloodstream. Once the female guardian had removed the syringe, he donned his helmet and rushed onto the battlefield, plowing through Holy Templars like they were toothpicks all lined up just for him.
Once he was deep into their lines, he stopped and spoke.
"I have come, for that man." He said pointing out the Messiah. The Messiah sighed and marched towards him.
"The Great Polar Bear of Wilderplains. My, my, aren't you out of your league fighting me?"
"Not even close. I can handle you."
"Is that so? Well, Polaris couldn't handle me and I handled him with ease."
As the words left the Messiah's mouth, the Hysteria-Adrenaline kicked in, dropping Atrocity to a knee. He clenched his teeth in rage-filled anguish.
"Upset are we?"
"Did....you...kill...him?
"Of course I did. I made sure to tell everyone on the way here too. The Mighty Leader of Wilderness is DEAD!" Yelled the Messiah. Looks of fear and despair took hold of the forces of Wilderplains. Both Daytona and White lowered their heads in desperate rage. "We....got him.... killed?"
Atrocity launched a fury of punched into the Messiah. Each punch broke the sound barrier as the slammed into him. "THEN YOU WILL JOIN HIM IN THE AFTERLIFE SO HE MAY DEPRIVE YOU OF PEACE!" Each hit thundering into the Messiah's body, Atrocity's eyes were bloodshot, full of fury, rage and seething hatred. Armor from the Messiah was being ripped and scattered everywhere as the Polar Bear of Wilderplians ripped into him.
Meanwhile, King Fog ordered those who could fight to pick up weapons and join the battle. Guardians had been given the order to join the fray as well. It was a desperate attempt to break the siege. Many of the heroes and leadership of Wilderplains had been rattled by the news the Messiah had broken to them.
"My King..."
"What is it Surveillance?"
"Do you think it's true?"
"No. I don't."
"But my lord... He hasn't..."
"Polaris will return, make no mistake."
Back on the battlefield, Atrocity and the Messiah had been going at it, punch for punch, blow for blow. However, the Messiah jumped backwards and whistled. A dagger flew past him and struck Atrocity. From behind the trees emerged Belvidere and several high angels.
"You.... fucking bitch."
"Careful now... That's a poison dagger. I'd say you have a few minutes left standing."
"Then that's enough to end the lot of you!" Yelled Atrocity as he pulled out a second syringe and slammed it into his thigh.
"What the hell was that?" Demanded the Messiah. His question was met by a knee to the face from Atrocity, and Belvidere was launched through several trees. For Atrocity had gone primal, and began rampaging through his enemies.
As the Messiah stood up, he order every angel to open fire of the barrier. As they did, it feel with ease and they began to push Wilderness back. Atrocity, lunged at the Messiah, who promptly slammed him into the ground, the tore open Atrocity's chest.
"I AM ENDING THIS YOU UNGRATEFUL SINNERS! IT IS TIME TO...."
The Messiah was interrupted by a messenger's cry...
"DESTRUCTION COMES FOR ALL! FEAR HIS BLAZE, HIS STRENGTH TO ALL THOSE WHO OPPOSE HIM!"
The battlefield went still as a massive explosion rocked the ground for miles around.
"No... It can't be...."
"Is that?"
