And so the sun began to rise and with it an army of Zeons wielding meteorite shields in the shape of circles and spears marched not just through the six common cities but also the capital.
"I can't believe that father thinks this trash could serve him in any useful way" Akuma looked upon the burning shelters, the streets becoming stained with more and more blood as the seconds go by.
Spears being launched through the air.
Followed by horrific screams and the constant sound of foot steps, but with so many beasts it became a stampede.
No Zeon was spared from the army's march.
No consideration was made for the unfortunate.
Man woman and child alike were enslaved forced into the barracks.
And further adding to their fright, they are being guarded by brute like Zeons wielding berserker swords.
The berserker swords are the largest blade in the common army's arsenal, being nine foot long.
And after only two hours over four hundred and fifty Zeons had been enslaved, ripped from their families.
And a estimate of the casualties was given out to the commoners to try and turn their final sparks of confidence into complete despair.
The cities were in a blaze of flames, flames so bright that it seemed they would never end.
Mothers were howling with tears but some lucky few died along with the children they wished to protect.
The streets were soon not just infested with rats but the dead, as the corpses fell one by one across the roads.
"Please plea... please spare my child from this he's only four..., he can't suffer such a burden plea..." the howling mother fell to the floor her body lifeless and cold.
"Why would I spare your child? What makes him different from any other beast here, everyone should be glad they actually get to serve a purpose greater then they deserve" the prince lifted his spear from the woman's body.
Without any care for the beast the kid was thrown into the barracks unable to say his farewells to his mother.
But he was not alone in his misfortune as many others watched their families die before their eyes.
Sat at a height above the chaos was Hollow but no one could notice his presence, after all he is below average...
"So is this what you envisioned Densetsu? Did you really want to bring such chaos about?" Hollow spoke casually to himself until finally laying his eyes upon Prince Akuma.
"I will make sure that King Darkus puts my research at the highest priority, all that power is wasted on you my prince".
And soon after those few words were spoken a violent light of chaos energy appeared to be shooting through the sky and towards the prince no less.
But one of the berserkers dashed from his post allowing for some of the Zeons to escape but in doing so...
The chaos energy slammed against the blade only a giant could wield, protecting the unaware prince but...
The effort was a waste.
The energy was never meant to harm.
It was meant to distract.
The overload Zeons that escaped finally had a chance to take their revenge although they never guessed that they would be given a chance this fast.
But they were not gonna let this chance go to waste.
Six beasts surrounding their prey, each one awaiting the perfect opportunity to strike.
And as the berserker turned to face the prince...
A torn arm no maybe it was his leg hit the guard knocking him backwards.
The prince glanced upon the child who stood casually behind the guard.
And as Akuma realised what happened he began to scream or at least he attempted too.
But a merciless beast took hold of his head...
One hand on top and the other on his jaw.
And without mercy they tore his head in half, his jaw still in the hand of the beast, but his head well...
His eyes were popped out onto the guard's feet, and the rest was crushed and minced.
The other beasts tore his body limb by limb, his torso ripped to shreds, nothing was left remaining the same.
Prince Akuma's remains were left scattered across the street.
But it was almost as if the soldiers allowed for this to happen...
No one interfered with the prince's murder, no one helped him.
As no one wants a prince who cannot defend himself.
As if he cannot defend himself how could he hope to defend his people.
Finally the soldiers ran their meteorite spears through the hearts of all six beasts, putting an end to their freedom.
The berserker who allowed for this to happen ran to the only thing that was out of place.
A child with clean grey hair, eyes with no hope, and the aura of a demon.
"Hey kid leave now you don't want to get caught in this" the berserker spoke seemingly to have let his emotions take over.
But the child thought to themselves, would you look at that i guess even the giant monsters have emotions.
And Hollow finally spoke looking upwards to the caring brute "but even you should know to not underestimate any Zeon even if they are a child".
And within a split second the berserker's heart was dissected.
Holding the pulsing heart in his hand Hollow spoke once more "you really should of been more careful you never know how many monsters are hiding in the shadows".
Two hours passed but the conflict did not end with the prince's death no it only got more violent.
The fire enveloped all of the six common cities, turning into a blazing inferno.
You couldn't even tell it was night as the roaring flames lit up the entire planet.
But one change was imminent, the absence of a leader could not be ignored.
But who could they turn too?
"My king you summoned me, for what purpose?" Hollow appeared from the shadows.
"I know that your the one who sent that railgun of chaos energy..., but worry not Akuma was no longer a useful tool but you, you are" Darkus gave the first part of his speech.
Although none of his words surprised Hollow as his blank expression still failed to change.
Hollow stood proud on equal level with the king awaiting his next words without fear.
"So I appoint you as the temporary leader of my army, despite your age you might just be the smartest person on Kronen" Darkus stood from his throne.
And as Hollow gave no answer Darkus began to think to himself, I wonder just what you have planned young Zeon do your goals reach further then my own?
And whilst the king was lost in thought Hollow had vanished just like a ghost.
And just moments later even more horrific screams could be heard.
Just as Hollow had planned for every single moment he planned for the aftermath of the events in which he caused.
The beasts would not only serve the king but the future of experimentation.
"Ah it seems someone survived well I have no need for the dead except for spare parts" Hollow cleanly cut through the neck of the crawling beast.
"So the king put a child in char..." a headless soldier collapsed to the ground.
"I have no need for idiotic soldiers, listen if anyone looks down upon me because of my age you'll all end up as my future experiments" Hollow glared upon all of the enslaved as well as the soldiers, making no exception for either.
And only a few hours later and every named overload Zeon on the list was found either dead or enslaved.
Although about thirty could not be found at the barracks even after their names were crossed to say that they were enslaved.
Having achieved all that was asked upon the late prince Hollow achieved his status as a permanent aid to the king.
And as he walked past each enslaved Zeon Hollow looked down on them all callously, thinking them to be apart of his experiment.
Meanwhile in the barracks...
King Darkus appeared to greet all of those imprisoned.
And with only a few words he turned their despair into joy as the imprisoned ran outwards in a stampede.
Kareen soared into the sky to avoid the crowd, having mutated herself into Garuda.
Garuda a member of the avion race, a bird like race which can change the size of their wings and always regenerate them with no life energy.
The wing size of a avion determines their strength.
Garuda is the guardian of birds, but despite his name he hates his own race especially his family.
And while they did not join the crowd the Sasine brothers, thought it best to make their own path.
In which Zanshi demolished one of the barracks revealing an opening in which they could make their way back home to the capital city Revenant.
