Chapter 8

***\*2 Years Before Reset, Inside The Rebellion. . .***

"Over here." Arius gestured towards an open door, hurrying in and holding it open for their brother, before closing it. They haven't gotten far. The place was filled with guards, as if this was another castle. The guards outside said this place was called "Home of the Rebellion", a group of monsters who were against the testing and experiments made in the lab, furthermore the fact that G took over half the underground. Those at his half had fled and hid here. Knowing that they were G's creations, they would be killed on sight.

While in thought, Arius opened a ventilation shaft, climbing up then pulling Rue inside, before crawling forward. They could see monsters roaming below, all armed, the ones in the further parts not. They climbed into another room, then dropped down silently, catching Rue before placing them down.

". . . Where are we going?" Rue looked up at their brother, waiting for a response.

"To find the leader, and negotiate." They peeked out of the room, then pulled Rue away down the corridor, before hiding behind a wall.

"Hello?" Two guards walked down the hallway.

"You were imagining things bro, theres no one here."

"I swear I heard something. . ." The first guard sniffed around. "Yea I smell someone..."

Arius slowly took off their glove as the guard came nearer.

"You sure its not just your nose acting up?"

"I'm sure I smell someone." As the guard was about to turn the corner, Arius grabbed them by the snout and crushed, their magic hands decaying the poor guard's face.

"Doggo?" The second came over, only to meet the same fate. The deathbringer wore their gloves again, then dragged their brother away deeper into the base.

. . .

. . .

A girl with long white hair was thrown against the walls of the dorm, their red-haired brother turned half black.

"G! Stop it! The hell are you doing???" The man smiled at their creations, before grabbing the boy by the throat, and squeezing.

"It is for the greater good, Akuji. For a perfect reality, one with no flaws whatsoever." They flung them at the wall, causing Akuji to cough blood out, as the ex-scientist walked towards the cowering girl.

"Come on Neo, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way." They reached out to grab them, only to have their hand slapped away.

"G-get away from me!" They stood up and ran, limping abit, sadly only making to the door before tripping over.

"Neo Neo Neo..." G picked them up by the hair. "It has to be done."

The girl whimpered as the man moved their hand into them, ripping out their soul before dropping the body of the girl.

"Useless." They absorbed the soul, before moving off, only to be stopped by Akuji grabbing their leg.

"Hm?" They looked down, meeting their eyes.

"You bastard..." They chomped down on their leg, only to be flung away.

"Tch, Pathetic." The murderer continued out, shutting the door behind them.

. . .

. . .

Arius and Rue walked into a big room. The walls were lined with racks of weapons, as if this was a training area, or a weaponary.

"We should be close to them." The two slowly walked through the room, looking around. Arius could feel someone nearby. The leader possibly.

"Stop." Arius moved forward alone, before sensing something, moving back just before a spear flew right past them, striking the wall with an explosion.

A person jumps out of the shadows, another spear forming in their hand.

"State your identity and business here... children?" The person looked at the two. "The hell are two human kids doing here?"

"Who is your leader." Arius walked towards them slowly, clam.

"Leader? Ah... I don't remember making any appointments." The person grinned.

"Your probably looking for me." The fish lady made the spear disappear. "What is it that you need from me?"

"We are from G's lab."

"Oh... come with me." The lady opened the door, and guided the two away.

. . .

. . .

"Who is our next target, DisReal?" G stared into the far distance, waiting for their phantom friend to respond.

"There is a person you should know...the leader of a Rebellion. Their name is...Dina."

The ex-scientist smiled, then disappeared into the darkness.
