Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Kingdom Of Aslan

ALUCARD'S POV.

I lost everything in one night, my wife, child, friends, family and fellow warriors_ all gone in a single night.

It started with the sunset, then the clouds gathered bringing with it more darkness than it should, lightning flashed temporarily turning night into day_ the thunder roared loudly across the entire "kingdom of Aslan".

As the clouds opened up their mouths letting out the rivers of rain pour down heavily with unnatural force, they appeared from hundreds and multiplied into thousands slowly marching down to the kingdom_ we spotted them but it wasn't what we expected.

Monsters, demons, and beasts of many sizes and disfigured body shapes marched down together, something that should only happen in stories and folklore_ yet here they are in unison having one mission "Total eradication of the human civilization forever".

The sight was a horror beyond imaginative comprehension, i saw things that shouldn't be yet it was_ never in history have we heard or seen anything like this, as suddenly they all appeared with the darkness of the night.

They marched down to the kingdom's powerful gate, and broke it down with little effort like it was a child's game, wave after wave poured into the kingdom_ as they brought down chaos and terror into the kingdom.

Walls caught fire, buildings crumbled to the ground, screams of the citizens filled the air, The air reeked of blood and searing heat, thick with the hordes satisfaction."

The more we slaughtered them, the more their numbers increased, aslan was a kingdom that boasted to have the greatest military strength and numbers, we had fighters, swordsmen and martial artists, sadly it wasn't even enough to cause this beings into retreat. 

Thousands of the kingdom's soldiers, including mercenaries gathered together to push back this horde of death, "we slaughtered; fought and slaughtered".

We slaughtered hundreds of them, the horde of death slaughtered thousands of us.

The fight continued becoming more and more intense, in the endless heat of battle, i alone broke formation_ quickly sprinting towards the next street looking for a way to get back to my home and secure my family.

Each streets, valleys, alleys and tunnels followed_ the horde was there killing, eating and doing horrible things to people.

"No time to avoid fights. I battled through impossible odds_ slaughtering those I could, fleeing those I couldn't."

Finally i got to my home, but it was already too late_ on all side's the horde surrounded me, my will and vows wavered but still i fought and slaughtered, fought and slaughtered, fought and slaughtered, until none remained_ just to see the dead body of my family. 

Finally killing all, i searched the rubbles, and there was nothing_ no blood, no burnt body. Empty.

Lilyyy!! i screamed out in pain my blade drenched in blood_ loosened from my hand dropping to the ground, "tears streamed down my face", i watched the only thing i called a home burn to the ground, with no bodies found.

"Help!!" then i heard her voice, my wife's voice echoing from the next street, "Rage ignited in my veins". Instantly i picked up my blade and dashed towards the street, there i saw her held by three black demons_ one held her hands, the other tore her dress from her body.

My child laid on the ground near the trash, barely alive as two double headed beasts were about to feast on his body.

No time to think, i bit down on my lips and sprinted at the demons holding my wife_ my blade ready to slaughter but before i could close the distance multiple powerful monsters appeared, coming out from the dark part of the street.

"How," i asked but no one answered.

They blocked my path, i saw my wife ahead but couldn't do anything, my child called out to me_ "Dada", stretching his little hands towards me like he used to do when he wanted something. I would reach out and give it to him and carry him on my shoulders, but now it wasn't going to be possible anymore.

"No, i will save them both, i said taking my stance".

"Come at me animals!!.

They roared loudly, claws long and sharp, then they all came at me_ their bloodthirst i could sense within my very bones.

One, two, three, four, five, i counted. five monsters surrounded me at all sides_ simultaneously launching different attacks all at once.

Blade Arts: One thousand blade strikes, i chanted while evading everyone of their attacks.

"I cleaved through their flesh's".

"Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud".

One by one they dropped dead to the ground.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah",I calculated my breaths, using different art styles in one night have really taken it's toll on me, i thoughtfully spoke to myself.

Tightening my grip on my blade, i dashed forward once more at the demons holding my wife, "help me Alucard!" she yelled out looking at me, hands outstretched waiting for someone to pull her out of their grasp.

"Am coming, Lily!", I responded leaping into the air.

"blade whistled".

I took the first head of the demon holding her hands.

"Thud", Lily fell to the ground, hold on Lily am coming.

Again i leaped into the air, the second demon who tore out her clothes opened up it's mouth, it's eyes following my every movement_ then huge flames of fire shot out like balls hot and toxic.

Blade Arts: Air Step, i chanted, immediately dashing through the air, dodging every ball of fire.

"Sweesh, boom, boom, boom", the fire ball's collided with the surrounding buildings causing a chain reaction of explosions.

Blade Arts: Shadow Doubles_ instantly i multiplied myself into a hundred, deceiving the eyes of the demon from the real me.

I climbed up it's back, "I cleaved through it's flesh".

"Thudd", it's head and body crashed into the ground".

The last demon turned and ran away, the beasts followed after him.

I didn't chase after them. I couldn't my body didn't respond to me anymore_ "overusing my blade arts had drained me".

Lily!!!, i crawled my way to her body that laid still on the ground, no movement, i dragged myself with my hands to her body, against the bloody stone ground, where multiple corpses of human's and the horde laid.

"Wake up, wake up, i held her up in my hands".

"Slap", i sent my hand down her face hard.

"Argh", she gasped weakly, Alucard she held my hands, is our child alright.

I looked, he was unharmed, i nodded in response to her question.

Let's go, i said to her, as we both helped ourselves up, i hung my blade at my back.

Let's escape from h....

"Besh.... boom."

A huge hand sent me flying hard into across the next street, i crashed into one of the buildings.

I didn't see it coming, i didn't sense it, there i stayed unable to move watching as multiple demons_ violated my Lily, then they ate her, as they did my child".

Alucard!' Lily's scream tore through me as the demons," went into her, i pushed my body, forced it, yelled at it_ yet nothing, it was broken, bleeding and paralyzed completely.

My anger ignited multiple times over, still my body remained silent refusing to let me save mine family, letting me watch the horror unfold, i watched it all. An evil that cannot be explained destroyed the kingdom.

I prayed for a savior, none came.

The screams of Lily and my child gradually died off, as they were eaten alive completely.

The fires rose swallowing the kingdom, the screams of thousands echoed throughout as my vision blurred into darkness.
