Chapter 4: Hell On Earth

Ratatoskr's Medical Deck:
*Beep! Beep! *
Kotori lying flat on the hospital bed like a log is still without any conscious. Tubes, oxygen mask, and hoses are connected to her body and mouth to help her recover in full health as her purple flames already died out. Her upper body is covered with bandages and patches to cover all her wounds that her regenerative ability didn't healed. Inside the infirmary, Shido with bags under his eyes and a man on the wheel chair in his 50's with a woman behind him that looks like Ellen from DEM are discussing something while they wait for Kotori to regain her consciousness.
"Her vitals and breathing are perfectly normal." The man's voice spoke with a sigh. "No one can survive a wound like that. She's very lucky that she has a strong regenerative ability."
Then the blonde woman spoke. "She really outdone herself. Facing a Wizard Adeptus is very suicidal."
"Will she wake up soon?" Shido asked in a tired voice.
"Yes, but we need to let her rest for two more days before you can take her home." The man's voice replied.
"Thanks Elliot." Shido said. The man gave the boy a warm smile.
Before Shido could turn his back and exit the infirmary, he heard Elliot spoke again. "Those two you are with, I know them."
Shido's ear perked up as he heard this. He quickly glanced at Elliot.
"How?!" Shido asked in shock.
"It's a long story, but there is a deleted history from ratatoskr after the first spirit appeared in this world."
Shido eyes widened as he listened carefully.
"The first spatial quake. The quake was so powerful, it ripped through time and space itself - - thus it open up a portal to an unknown world." Elliot then look at the boy dead serious in the eyes. "You already heard that the first spatial quake had killed 30 million people, right?"
Shido gave a shaky reply. "Y-Yeah?"
"Let me tell you that history is set of lies agreed upon. What really happened that day is more horrifying than what history is telling us today."
"You mean?" Shido tried to speak, but he don't know what words he must say.
"Those spatial quake victims are only half of those 30 millions, the rest got mauled by creatures from the otherworld where those two men came from." Elliot said darkly, making shido shook.
And he continues. "Those two men you are with, they are the sons of a powerful demon who sealed the king of hell. Their powers are beyond of this world, it even surpassed the power of the spirit of origin. They are capable of destroying this planet with ease if they wanted to. We are lucky they don't have such interest except for keeping balance between the underworld and the human world."
"The man wearing a dark coat, is the elder son. He wields the blade known as Yamato. This blade can split human from devil, and can open up a portal from the underworld to the human world. And the man wearing a road coat is the youngest son, he wields the sword known as the rebellion who can bond human and demons, base on my analysis I guess he already discovered the sword's capabilities."
After Elliot's explanation, he then holds Shido's shoulder tightly before saying desperately. "Shido! Those two are the keys to make sure Westcott's plan is doom to fail!"
Shido's voice turns serious. "What plan?"
Elliot answered grimly. "Hell on earth. He wants to repeat the event that occurred 30 years ago, but with great interest... Interest for power!"
*SLAM!!! *
The three people inside the room quickly turn their heads after a man wearing a bulletproof vest and a military helmet entered with force while panting heavily.
"What's the meaning of this?" Elliot asked unamused.
"Sir, they're gone! Those two men, we tried to stop them even with force but our weapons are useless against them!" The guard exclaimed and gasped. "They just tanked their way out of here!"
Elliot and Shido shared a worry look with each other.
Tengu City:
A beautiful city, yet have a high risk of spatial quakes occurring. The panic caused by fraxinus crash landing in the middle of this urban place had subdued and ground zero is being repaired by the government like they always do everytime disaster hits.
In a city so busy, people do enjoy the fair quality of life here. Many people have jobs, there is a park where you can relax, and it had many malls to go with many friend hanging out. Until...
"W-What is that?!"
People stop dead on their track and glanced at the sky and saw this unknown black clouds. The sun got easily blocked by this thick dark cloud, making the streets and park to light up the street lights. A lot of people scratch their heads and questioned of what was happening. No alarms and no warnings... nothing.
Not before...
"NOOOO!!!"
*Sounds of tearing flesh! *
"What the hell is that thing?!"
"Everybody get away from it!"
"Why is the government not evacuating us?! Why is the alarm not going off?!"
"Run!!!"
A woman's corpse with her limbs and blood scattering around the street is getting mauled by a humanoid ogre like creatures. People sprint out of the scene and some of them fell on their knees and vomited out their lunch.
When they are hoping and praying someone will come and take care of those things, a mysterious tremor broke out all over the city as a gigantic skeleton (almost the size of the empire state building) dug itself out of the ground, roaring and destroying infrastructures and picking up 10 to 15 people with its massive hand and bringing them to its mouth like a person eating a chip. And one clamp of its jaw, blood ang guts sprayed everywhere the asphalt ruined street and destroyed building walls.
In the park, the parents grabbed their children and they desperately tried to escape the massive blizzard.
"The news said it will be sunny?!" One guy exclaimed.
The cold atmosphere in the park got filled with the melodic singing of a woman. In the cold mist, a pale woman in bare feet and wearing a white dress with a long katana in hand appeared. Her long black hair is covered in glittering snow as her pale lifeless eyes glanced at the people that's running away for dear life. She took out her sword and with one swing, and a cold deadly blade like wind traveled towards the panicking people. Some of them got cut in half, and some of them got decapitated. The fresh sprinkled blood in the air turned into falling snowflakes.
Raizen High School:
A school located in Tengu City. It is known by its large building with a clock in front of it and its wide court yard that the students played sport. The school was built in the disaster area that affected Japan 30 years ago. It also have a spaceful underground shelter for all the students to fit in without any struggle, and this is the reason why this school has a fairly high rating among the people.
The male students wore a white long sleeved, black blazer with the "R" emblem meaning Raizen, grey trousers, blue tie with black and red stripes, and black shoes. While the female students wore a white long sleeved t-shirt, black blazer with the school emblem, blue skirt with two black stripes near the bottom, black or white long socks or tights, brown or black shoes, red ribbon tie, and some of them wore a light orange cardigan with the school emblem.
Shido, Tohka, Origami, Yuzuru, and Kaguya are some of the students here. Today, Shido is absent because of her sister, and only the four girls are in the school right now. The four are having their lunch in the canteen, talking about the two new comer in this world. Suddenly, the peaceful lunch comes to an end when one male student suddenly burst opened the cafeteria's push door, gasping and quickly picking up the long cafeteria chairs, piling them up on the door like a garbage full of chairs.
The other students and teachers inside the cafeteria got confused by his action, but at the same time worried because of this student's ripped clothing with blood stains all over it. He looks like he got attacked by a raging animal.
The panicking student glanced at the people inside and yelled out. "Everybody needs to hide now! They are coming!"
A teacher wearing an eye glasses in her late 20's, but looks younger than her age because of her face approached his student.
"Tonomachi?! What happened?!"
"T-Tama-chan! W-We need to hide now, they are coming!" The student cried out.
"Who is coming?!" The teacher asked.
"S-Samurais! They killed the others!" Finally, the Tonomachi couldn't take it anymore as he hugged his teacher and sobbed on her shoulder.
Tamae stood up and guide the traumatized student to one of the unoccupied table while the other students murmured to each other. Without warning, the push door suddenly exploded open with the chairs flying towards the students. Some of the unlucky students got hit and fly with the steel chair, crushing them and splattering blood everywhere after landing on the wall.
Tohka and the others are in shock, but quickly regained their composure and glared at the five figures standing in the doorway. A seven footer humanoids with glowing red eyes, wearing a samurai armor with a katana that's streaming with dark unnatural smoke all marched inside the cafeteria.
All the students except for Tohka and the other three spirits squeeze themselves in a tight corner of the room, shaking inside their shoes.
"Get ready! Sandalphone!" Tohka called out her angel. A broadsword appeared and her spirit armor blended with her uniform.
"Metatron!" Origami does the same. Getting surrounded by multiple pillars like turret behind her.
"Rafael, El Re'em!"
"Rafael, El Na'ash!"
The twins called out theirs also. With Kaguya wielding a giant lance and Yuzuru wielding a chain with a spear head at the end.
The samurai behind his four companions roared out like a lion and pointed his sword at the four spirits before his companions charged without any hesitation towards them.
DEM's Director Office:
"Why go such extreme?" Ellen spoke behind Wescott who is looking out of his office window.
Westcott smirked and said. "Well, I have a solo mission for you."
Ellen raised her eyebrows and asked out of curiosity. "What is it?"
"There is one major Demon in the park that I need you to kill." Westcott face Ellen and continued. "Once you've killed her, then the sweet reward is yours my dear Ellen."
Ellen just look at him showing determination and willingness, making Wescott look at her with a challenging eyes. "You think you can handle her?"
"I AM... the greatest wizard in the world, I'm sure I can accomplish any mission that you'll throw at me." Ellen stated.
Westcott just nodded in response before turning around to watch the chaos unfolding infront of his whole being.
"Before you go, can you please tell Artemisia to come here?"
