Hell's Queen

Hectic Situation

Helios Base ((Next day)) 9:00 AM

            Sin was at full speed. She warped a portal and stepped inside. Reaching Helios at last. She was in the main room of the base. It was empty. The lights were off. Of course nobody would be out here. After she left everyone to argue with themselves, why would they be still here? The lights were off. It was quite to quite. “Alright come out of the darkness I know you’re watching me,” Sin said with her eyes closed. A smirk smuggled her face. The lights went on. Everyone was staring at her. Zina ran forward. Embracing Sin in a hug.

            “I was so worried about you. After butler told us you had this run in with a girl named Alice we all got worried and wondered what happened to you, but your back and I’m so glad,” Zina said as she hugged Sin tighter. Sin couldn’t breathe.

            “You knew about Alice?” Sin gasped for breathe.

            Hearing Sin’s lack of breathe; Zina released her grip a bit on Sin. “Yes, butler called as soon as communications were cut off between you. It scarred everybody,” Zina sighed.

            “Accept me. I couldn’t care less about what happens to you,” Dexie huffed.

            “It’s nice to see you too,” Sin faked a smile.

            “Humph. Acting all good and healthy. What a faker,” Dexie laughed and stormed off.

            “What’s with her? What a b***h,” Danny glared.

            “She’s fine. Just racist,” Sin exclaimed, shrugging with a smug look on her face.

            “This is like hell all over again…ah…no offense Sin,” Danny laughed.

            Sin glared at him. This made Danny step back with fright.

            “Listen! I am establishing order now! I have some news that isn’t so good,” Sin said. She said it loudly so that everybody could hear. They all took their seats. Patiently waiting for the bad news.

            “I wonder if it’s good news or bad news,” Terra said.

            “She just said it was bad news Terra,” Tarra replied, sitting next to her twin.

            Dexie came back from stomping away and also sat in a seat. Slowly bobbing her head and looking dazed. Sin thought she might of beat herself with exhaustion.

            “I wonder if this is about Rurah. They have been quite a pain lately,” Zina sighed, slouching back in the chair. She had a tired look on her face, and her eyes were closed.

            “Hm. You interrupt my experimentation for this? Have you no shame as our leader?” Raven came in, her boots clanging against the medal floor. Her hair gently swished back and forth. Her hair was gray, down to her ankles. She always wore a black dress and goggles, just in case of chemicals in her lap. She was a seven year old scientist. A year older and Sin’s daughter Siren.

            “Everybody is here. Good. Well, here it goes. Rurah is coming after us. We will be in an all-out war against the clan. But, I will not be able to lead you into battle,” Sin sighed. Her face had a saddened look on it. Everybody stared at her in bewilderment.

            “What do you mean? Not able to be in battle with us? What could you possibly have more important to do in your life?” Danny bolted up and yelled. He had anger on his face. Sin looked up startled and shocked. A tear rolled down her cheek.

            “Saving the world. Saving everything from being extinct,” Sin swept her head back and forth full of tears.  

            Now everybody looked at her, their faces full of concern and confusion. Zina was the first one to bolt out of her chair and, and rush to Sin. Placing the palm of her hand on Sin’s forehead. Did she think Sin was sick or became insane? “Zina, stop doing that. I’m not ill,” Sin exclaimed, taking Zina’s hand off of her head and, setting it beside her sister’s side.

            “What did you mean when you said that? Saving everything from being extinct? Have you lost your mind?” Zina asked. A shock was spreading through her. Worriedness slapped her on the face and, it stayed there like a hand print.

            “I don’t really know it myself but, I was told I had two choices by this woman who appeared in my dream last night,” Sin said a little panicky and confused herself.

            “You must have been punched in the head by Alice or something because, you really have lost it this time,” Danny said shaking his head with disappointment.

            “I’m being serious! This guy appeared in my dream and told me I was meant to be his queen, then I went to stop a bunch of villagers from doing what they usually did but, when I got there they all vanished and I met one of his mechanical droids Alice, then I went back to my castle met this girl named Frain, she told me I had two choices, I fell off my throne, fell asleep and ran into these two other droids Lucy and Sareen. Lucy was cute, she was in a maid outfit but, Sareen, she had really big boobs and looked like an evil scientist with glasses,” Sin exclaimed.

            Everybody looked at her. Sin’s cheeks flushed a deep red. They all had a worried look on their faces. It was Dexie who looked at Sin with truthful eyes. Everyone else seemed to start to look away from her and doubt in their leader. Dexie may have hated Sin deep to the core but, she looked up to Sin at this moment with “I believe you,” in her eyes. Then, she opened her mouth and spoke something that wasn’t expected.

            “Do you guys remember what I told you from a rumor I heard?” Dexie asked.

            Everybody seemed nervous to answer. No one dared to look up from where they were sitting but, she knew they were all listening and remembering.

            “About, a man who calls himself king, comes into the dreams of woman he redeems worthy and, sees if they are material to become his queen. He has pawns that do his dirty work. Using life like a chessboard. You know what this means don’t you?” Dexie glared at everyone.

            “Rumors are just rumors Dexie. Why do you believe the trash that comes out of Sin’s mouth?” Danny asked in a low voice. He refused to look up.

            “I think I understand who you’re talking about,” said a shy male’s voice.

            Everyone turned their head’s to where the voice came from. Noel was standing by the entrance to the meeting room. His white wing and, black wing shone vividly.

            “Noel!” Sin said startled.

            Noel walked down towards the table and stood by Sin. He looked at everyone with disappointment. Shaking his head he frowned, “How could you not believe her? She’s our leader. We basically live in a freakish universe ourselves. Even humans from Earth don’t even believe we exist accept for the humans who actually live on our planet,” he scowled.

            “What?” Sin whispered looking up at Noel.

            “I think I know this guy,” Noel said looking at his hands. Though from his elbow down to his fingertips were covered by sleeves, he could imagine his scares through them. Closing his eyes and frowning.

            “Noel not you too!” Danny raised his voice, slamming his fists on the table in a tiny fit of rage.

            Torra and Tarra remained silently. They seemed to believe in everything everybody had said, no matter how impossible a situation may appear to be.

            “This guy. Damn it! He really pisses me off sometimes,” Noel stammered. He punched the wall, leaving a crack behind.

            “Noel!” Zina yelped. Her tail was puffy. She was scared.

            “Everybody listen to her. She’s telling the truth. Sin what do we need to do? This guy is bad. You have to go with him but, I promise you don’t need to stay there forever. We will find a way to rescue you from him,” Noel exhaled.

            “Who is this guy you’re talking about?” Zina asked Noel.

            “I met this guy a few years back when I was living on the streets in a small town after I ran away from my father’s house. This guy would always walk by the same street and just stared at me. He did it continually for about four months. One day before Christmas he came by like he usually did but, he threw something at me and left. I decided to follow him. I ran alley ways, down streets, through fields until I found upon this building. I saw him go through it with this girl. I followed after him. His house was so dark I could barely see anything in front of me, then I saw a light. I peeked through. He said your name to this girl. I didn’t know who you were then but, after the girl nodded he ripped her heart out and threw it on the floor. She glanced my way for a second and, then I figured out who she was. She was someone I held dearly in my heart. To see her die right in front of me I fell in shock and despair. He came through the door and saw me, nearly killed me too. Bastard,” Noel cried out.

            “Wait he’s going to kill Sin?” Zina asked. Her face was flushed to white. Every color seemed to drain from her body making her look like a ghost. She staggered back and nearly fell over. Danny caught her and held her up steady.

            “I don’t think so. He really wants her,” Noel said, he was looking up at the ceiling. He was spacing out. Perhaps thinking of the girl he saw die right in front of his eyes?

            Sin stood up now, sadness took her face, and “I’m going to leave you in charge Noel. I trust you to make the right decisions when I’m gone. Prepare everyone for battle against Rurah. I’m going to him,” she decided.

            “Ah, about that. Do you even know how to get to him?” Noel breathed. He was distracted for a moment but, after hearing his name snapped back into focus.

            “No,” Sin hesitated at first. 

            “Then don’t just go overboard. Let’s figure something out first. Did he give you a time limit of when to make your final decision?” Zina jumped in. Now eyes were on her for a change. Puzzled, confused and, disappointed looks made Zina feel uncomfortable but, she had her head straight and bravely faced forward.

            “Zina,” Danny’s desperate eyes glued his older triplet. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing, “Have you lost it as well? Stop believing this foolishness. It’s not right!” he yelled at her.

            Zina flinched but, turned and calmly faced her brother, “You never do change do you? If it’s something you don’t like to hear you cancel it out and assume it’s untrue, especially when it’s Sin who has said it. This isn’t foolish. I can sense it in my heart that she isn’t lying, neither is Noel. Sin how do you expect to get to him and, what do you want us to do against Rurah? You’re our leader. I shall obey no matter how dumb something may seem to be,” Zina turned from her brother and bowed to Sin. A soft, gentle smile came across her face, a tear trickling down after on her cheek.

            “Zina,” Sin breathed. She stepped down towards her sister and, embraced her in a strong, loving hug, “Thank you for believing in me,” she closed her eyes and, clung to her sister.

            “You are strong little sister. Believe in yourself and, you will be able to accomplish anything you set your little mind to,” Zina said, she released herself from her sister and, walked back over to her seat. She seemed more determined than she was before. It gave Sin a happy aura.

            “Well, now that most of us are on board what do we do?” it was Dexie. She had serious eyes. They were on Sin, not only serious but trusting, believing in her.

            “I think he may appear in my dream again, or send somebody to ask me what I have decided,” Sin placed her hand on the table. Staring at everyone with bravery. Noel and Zina nodded. Everybody was listening. It was time for Sin to decided, “I’m going with that man. Even if I chose Helios over him he wouldn’t give a second thought to destroy the solar system, Helios included with its destruction. If I go with him nothing will be destroyed but I will lose you guys to Rurah,” Sin sighed.

            “Don’t underestimate us sister,” It was Danny. He stood up with a smirk on his face towards Sin, “We are the best god damn clan out there. We are assassins. We can do anything and, take out anybody who stands in our way,” he smiled.

            “Your right. I just needed to believe in you guys. Alright, here is what we need to do. Listen closely cause, I’m only going to go through this once,” Sin brightened.

            Everybody was listening, smiles on their faces, confidence, and bravery. “We can win this,” Sin thought to herself. Everybody was giving it their all, she should too. Their clan name was well known through the world. Rurah was new. It didn’t know much about the clan rules and, the world to know what they were doing. This gave Helios an advantage and, Sin knew exactly what to do.

            “We need two of our best assassins to infiltrate Rurah’s base and to take out a few of her members. The less members they have the better we are at an advantage, meanwhile, when Rurah comes some people will remain in the base. Danny I need you to remain in the base. You will be in the infirmary taking care of the injured, you as well Raven but, first we will need Sain on the battle field. As soon as he gets tired; Sain will come back to the base and Raven will be recovered and sent to the infirmary. Understood?” Sin exclaimed.

            “You got it. Never was much of a fighter material anyway,” Danny sighed and, shrugged.

            “Boring, but whatever you say,” Raven giggled and spun in her chair.

            “Next, we will have Experiment Six and Cloe to infiltrate the base and take out two of the strongest members Rurah has, which would be; Blair and, Mellowa. Both girls, sadly. Anyway; Zina, Torra, Tarra, and Noel you will be on the pathway from Rurah’s attack route. Each of you will be in separate places but, also close by to help each other when needed and, in trouble,” Sin glanced. Everybody nodded at her.

            “Will you separate us?” Torra asked, a little impish in his voice.

            “We work better when were together,” Tarra said.

            “You guys can be an exception I suppose. The rest of you will stay here and keep guard over Helios Base. Got it?” Sin finished.

            “Well it’s better than nothing right?” Zina laughed.

            Sin flushed. She knew her plan was bad. She wasn’t a genius but, it really was better than having no plan at all.

            “What about you Sin? Are you sure you really want to go with that guy? Nobody knows him. Is what you heard the truth?” Noel looked down at her.

            “It’s the truth. I must, and I will. To protect everything and everyone that’s dear to me.  I will be alright. I’m not the queen of Hell for nothing,” Sin giggled. She admitted to herself, she was afraid. She knew nothing about this man; except he calls himself king. She doesn’t even know his real name or, what he looks like and, his likes and dislikes. She felt like her parents were forcing her into an unknown marriage that she was just told about right before the wedding. She had so many feelings bubbling up inside her; hatred, sadness, scared, frightened, vulnerable. Everything but; happy and over joyed. What would this man be like once she met him; Old, young, skinny, fat, gorgeously hot, or a masochist? She couldn’t help but feel frightened but, she had to stay strong. She had to do it to protect everything. Little did she know; she was being watched from afar by that very man. He was smiling. Smiling with pleasure.

            Place: In-between worlds; kings castle [[Time Unreachable]]

            “She chose me?” the man said in glee. He was smiling. His smile was twisted with unsatisfiable adoration.

            “See? I knew that girl would chose you over Helios but, my I had no idea she would try to save both things. How admirable. But, it’s futile,” a woman said. It was Sareen. She was smirking with amusement.

            “I can’t wait to meet her. I want to kiss her. It hurts so much I won’t be able to control myself for much longer,” the man said. He was unsettled. He had large grin on his face and, his eyes looked like they may pop out of his head. He was holding his head with his two hands crouching over the couch, coughing; a slow blood drip fell from his mouth.

            “Master! You bit your lip!” Sareen said in surprise as she wiped the blood away from his mouth with a napkin.

            “D-don’t touch me!” He waved his hand at her.

            “But, Master…” Sareen sighed.

            “Retrieve my queen at once. I want her here with me as soon as possible. I need to get ready for her arrival,” the man said. He stood up and wiped the blood away from his mouth, “What are you waiting for? Go!” he yelled.

            “As you wish master,” Sareen hurried out of the room. Sareen had a plain look on her face, “Honestly that man. He’s so hot headed he can’t even wait a second. Well, he has waited 18 years of his whole life waiting for this special person. It’s best not to delay or, he will surely make me into scrap metal,” Sareen snapped her fingers and vanished. Lucy was peeking over the side of the wall staring after the disappearing Sareen.

            “So, it’s finally time,” Lucy sighed. She couldn’t stop the oil tears that fell from out her eyes and down her cheeks, “Sin, how I envy you by how you can so easily have taken my masters heart,” Lucy cried. She wiped away her tears and entered her master’s room. The soft closing of the door reverberated through the castle halls.
