Genesis, A New Creation

A Legend in the Making

-Chapter 7-

--Annah Hart--

Annah is awoken by her magic instructor and she grunts flicking her tail under the blanket and her instructor says in a scenery voice “Alpha, i'm sorry to wake you so late but please you must wake up surely you felt it as we'll?” her dream was broken by this stupid old man and she gets up and growls “You woke me, in the most in opportune moment.” The old man who was still as broad as he was when he was younger but his muscles were much less pronounced from all the time as a magic user. He says “i'm sorry, Alpha forgive me but please…Let me at least show you.” She grunts and says “leave me...before I RIP YOU APART!” he bows his head, his clothing and armor almost shining in the moonlight that was coming from the hole in the tent and he leaves.

She sighs “That dream...I was in a home of sorts, it was on fire..” she lays back down closing her eyes and her tail curls up to her chest and she grabs a hold of it nuzzling her face into it as if it was a small male, her instincts and hormones were really hitting her hard these days. Being alone for so long made it hard for her to concentrate without trying to find a suitable male for her to spend her days with. Her father had already tried to marry her to a high warrior but she declined and sometimes she regretted it, though her thoughts soon faded and she began to enter the dream world.

She opens her eyes and sees she is laying in a grassy field. She lifts her head and sees a almost never ending field of blue grass with flowers with white pedals that seem to shine and she looks up and sees no sun nor stars, yet there are many planets so close she can see the details of rivers and small oceans or lakes on them. Not moving but all having the same light but different colors of plant life and she is stunned to see the pure beauty of the place, Then she feels herself being dragged away suddenly and abruptly. She feels hot and looks around and sees she is in a burning building, the stairway is completely on fire and the red carpet is slowly turning black as it ignites in fire and she says “i'm dreaming...I'm in a bed.” she closes her eyes and expects herself to wake up but she doesn't and she tries to run out of the house but the door is locked shut and then she hears footsteps.

She turns around and sees a small person in a block robe with a hood on and mask, The robe completely covers him head to toe. The mask looks that of a Dragon skull with horns even and the eye sockets have a white glow to them but the person is at the top of the stairs and calmly walks into the fire and the fire seems to move out of the way making a clear path and the person takes out a key unlocking the door and walking out, Annah follows the man but as she sees him turn she wakes up his gaze still piercing her very soul.

She looks at the blanket she was laying on and was pushed off onto the dirt floor and sees the sun is shining on her white garments and she sits up fully, her blueish black hair messy and somewhat tangled. Taking her hand she ran it through her hair a couple of times before it finally started to flow freely and not tangled with itself. Her hair was slowly changing a bit though, the edes of her hair had become white and her bangs had gone completely white sighing She stood up collecting her thoughts and getting ready for the battle ahead, she needed her rest as she planned to attack the Kingdom of Kale and save the enslaved demi-Humans and take them on as citizens of her confederation. She then goes to her armor set and grabs the black chestplate first, it's battle worn and has many scars on it from battle. Let it be from arrows,swords,axes or even magic she has been hit by it and every time her armor saved her. Made out of a metal only found in the Chimera mountains within the city of Saisho the capital of her nation, She puts on the chest plate and as usual it slips right on even for her chest getting larger it still fits like a charm. Putting on the rest of the armor it feels different somehow, her ears ,head and tail are unarmored but she is more than fast enough to dodge or block any attack going for them.

Her tail flicks and she grabs the sword that was handed down from each generation. It was the sword made by her ancestor that was saved by Saisho. Made in his honor she made it out of a metal that does not exist in the world anymore, it's blue shine reminiscent of the legend, The engravings of great battles lined the sword. Though even through the test of time the sword never shattered nor dented it was truly a testament to their faith. She sheathes the sword on her back and walks out of her tent and people are running around grabbing weapons and quickly getting armored up. Annah’s second in command quickly comes up to her and says “Alpha, Quick you need to see this.” he's barely covered in his armor only his shoulder pads and leg pads are on. His blond hair still messy and his blue eyes wide with anxiousness.

The pads that made up the entire armor, themselves were made out of many different parts and rarely made out of medal as it was hard to find in there part of the continent so they had to adapt and use wood and even leather and layered them, over time this layering became so effective that it became more flexible, light and protective against even the most deadly combatants easily able to take a few strikes from a war axe before being useless. She followed him through the camp, everyone was running around her and him, getting horses ready, getting swords, armor, arrows and even magic potions ready for a battle that was not supposed to happen yet. Normally her second in command is quite a joking guy never able to stop speaking but here. He's completely silent, Yamato led her to her magic instructors tent where the legion commanders were already inside talking over each other trying to come up with a plan.

Annah enters and everyone goes quiet and the Legion commanders bow their heads backing up, Their magic instructor was and he was looking at a mirror and then said “Please…..look this unprecedented.” He takes a few steps back and Annah looks into the mirror seeing only bodies of the Kingdoms army they were going to fight, she can see many explosive magic wounds within the ground and then the mirror focuses in on the Demi-Human slaves in a carriage and a person in a black robe and cuts them free and says something to them, They nod and begin to follow him there are four demi-human women and five men and two children, a boy and a girl. Then Annah says “Instructor tell me, did this person fight off that army by themselves?” he's silent for a moment “yes…” he said it in a very quiet voice and Annah continues “I want everyone in a marching formation, We get those slaves and liberate them at all costs”

The legion commanders bang their chest pads with their fist once to aklawladge the order and head out quickly in a rush, Annah turns to her second and orders “I want all Warriors of Saisho behind me and ready for a battle that may bring their deaths.” Yamato nods his head and walks out as we'll, Annah looks back at the mirror and he notices them all stop and the person looks at mirror almost able to see her and she recognizes the person, they were from her dream and with the same soul piercing glance the person raises their hand and closes it and the mirror shatters into pieces even the frame that was holding it was crushed slightly and her magic instructor then warns “Alpha...please, Don't go after that person...I-I have never seen someone as powerful as them unless they were named by one of the five Gods'' Annah responds simply “And I am the Alpha, The one chosen by Saisho. I am a Warrior of Saisho, A leader and I do not fear death.”
