The Awakening.
 
Nero sat on a tower Piller overlooking the castle. His target destination. Sakari pulled her pant leggings and clipped on her energy blades to her legs and smiled at Nero. Nero grinned back, still in his usuall out fit. Skye loaded her Barret .50 cal with high magnitude bullets. She looked down the sights to see if it was crisp and clear. "Ready." She said through her Radio. "Got it." Nero replied. "You two ready?" He asked Aura and Draco who were behind him. 
Draco was locking his blade to his belt, opposite of the pack he carried. He had worn his cloak this time, to conseal his face from his father when they fought. He put the hood up and nodded.
Aura strapped the daggar she kept onto her leg and stood up. "ready." She replied

Nero signaled Aura and Sakari to begin. There mission was to sneak into the side and proceed to the main hall. Where Iran was, holding his meeting, disguised as a vampire feast. Killing all of the humans. Neros mission was to distract all of the guard so Draco could fight Iran. Skye provided Air support and sniper cover for Nero and Draco.

Aura nodded and signaled to Sakari to follow her. She darted to the castle and opened up a Drain that lead into the castle. She allowed Sakari to go in first, then followed behind, closing the hatch.
Draco stood waiting for Nero's signal

"I'll go in." Nero whispered and jumped through the sky light. The glass distracted the audience and Nero landed in the middle of the group, killing a vampire. His hood was on and no one knew who he was. "Evening." he said to everyone.

Draco followed him, landing next to Nero. He kept his arms down, causing his cloak to cover his whole body, and his hood was up, casting a shadow over his face.
Nero stood up and began to speak, "Iran, Iran, Iran. You dumb ********." Nero said to Agravate hiim, seeing guards coming near him. "How weak are you to only send Guards at me?! GUARDS?! I'm hurt."

Draco noticed the guards closing in, and asked Nero through telepathy *Shall I take them out? I have a way to do it without moving.* He remained motionless, waiting for Nero's responce

"Nope. But close your eyes." Nero threw a flash bomb on the ground and shouted, "Come and get me, c**k sucker!!!" he darted off, seeing ALL of the guards following him.

Sakari walked with Aira and asked a Gorky question, "What do you think of Nero?" she asked giggling.

Aura looked at her, her eyes wide. then she said "Uh, well, He's.... different from Draco, that's for sure."
 
Nero and hid in a dark corner seeing the guards come by. He drew his blade and caught the last one and slit his throat. He pushed him down and hid.

"How so?" she asked with her bright Hazel eyes looking at her in curiosity.
Aura chuckled "Well, he's a bit more cocky than draco, he definatly smiles alot more, and he has the guts to irritate anyone. Draco wouldn't do that, he'd simply get the job done without a word."

Draco stood in the middle of the room, looking at Iran from under his hood
 
Nero saw the guards run that direction and ran the other way to intercept them and pick them off one by one.

Draco remained silent, his red eyes glowing under his hood.

Iran clapped three time and smiled, "welcome home son!! What's with the face?!"
"Shut it, a*****e. You know damn well why I'm here." Draco said with little emotion. His cloak still covered his body.
 
"Mhh. Still the same as ever huh?" Iran spat spitfully."Why would I ever change for you?" Draco spat back.

Nero ran and saw the Guards. He made an evil grin that showed his white teeth with his eyes.

Sakari asked again, " What do you think of me?"

Aura smiled at her. "You are a wonderful, beautiful person. and Your beauty's not jsut skin deep."

"Hey boys." Nero said with an evil smile and charged right to them. He slashed his enemy taking two out out of 12. 10 left.

Sakari kicked the vent down and slid. "All clear" she informed Aura

Aura slipped down next to Sakari. She looked at her and put a finger to her lips, indicating to be a quiet as possible.

Draco took his hood off and undid the brooch that held his cloak together. Draco looked at Iran with an emotionless glare. "It's time for you to step down, Iran. Your reign of fear is over."

Sakari nodded and took the lead slowly moving. 
Nero had taken out 6 guards and finished his 7th by decapitating him, blood gushing everywhere, blinind the enemys. He jumped on the falling body as a boost and slashed his 8th kill in the jugular. Sakari got to a wall that was covered in blood and look on the corner. Shadows. She saw the shadows and saw Neros. She signaled Aura to stay. Aura nodded in responce.

"HAHA!!" Iran laughed and placed his hand on his head. "That's GREAAAAAT!! So hilarious! Your seriousness cracks me up!"

Draco kept a strait face, but inside, he was burning with rage at his father's cocky attitude. "Are you going to stand there and laugh yourself to death, or are you going to fight me?" He asked cooly

"Now that pisses me off. You act so cool, even though your burning with rage!!" He took off his cape and drew his two broadswords. "You are the challenger, Fool." 

Nero killed his Twelfth and the blood hit Sakaris feet. Nero walked to them and turned, his face had a shocked look. "Oh! Your in!" 
"Yep!" Sakari happlie replied.

Draco smiled as he heard the anger in Iran's voice. "Finally." He whispered as he drew his black bladed sword, holding it at the ready. "I've waited for this moment for years, training myself to my top condition. Now, I can finally erase you from the face of the earth. You will finally pay for what you did to mother thirteen years ago with your life." Draco spat his last few words.

Aura walked around the corner and up behind Sakari. She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw the blood that covered te walls and the floor. Her eyes got wide as she began to pant heavily

"It's vampire blood. Drink It, Aura. Itll boost your stamina." Nero said to her looking at Sakari. "Kari, go meet up with Draco and give him support. I'm going to the Data room." 
"Alroght, be carefull. " She said bringing his head down for a passionate kiss. "I love you." she said detaching. "Love you too." Nero said and took off

Aura walked slowly to the blood covered walls, She drug her finger across the wall, then stuck it into her mouth. She smiled cruely, revealing her canines, but stopped herself for one second. She grabbed a decorative Chalas off an end table and used it to scoop up some of the bool off the floor. She drank from the cup, forcing herself to retain her composure.

Draco was just about to strike when he notice Sakari walk in from the back entrance.

"?! Who are you?" Iran asked as he charged at Draco. 
Sakari stood still eyes Frozen at Irans dark energy. "None of your business." she barked.

Nero entered the data room and looked on the computers for a file called, "Dragon History. And Dragonian empire black files." He searched and shouted, "Found it!"
He stuck in a Flash Drive and copied the data on to it in 30 seconds. "Time to go!" he took out his flash drive and picked up a chair and smashed the computers. Then ran to Draco and Iran to help the fight.
 
Draco yelled "GET OUT OF HERE!!" As he blocked Iran's attack. He quickly counterattacked with an over the shoulder slash, followed by a cut upward.

Sakari ran to Aura quickly and saw her drinking the blood," Aura...we need to wait for Nero."

"GOOD!! Now we can fight alone!!" he blocked his sword slash and punched Draco in the face.

Draco was knocked back a little ways as he was punched. He recovered quickly and retaliated with a upward slash, then a series of punches and kicks, then a spin slash to the neck

Aura stood up and turned to Sakari, blood running down from the sides of her mouth. "I've got too much built up energy to wait." She said, then darted off at inhuman speed

Sakari blinked in fear and gripped her fists, "I can do this!!" She said running after her. 

Iran took the blocks and dodged the slash to the knees and charged forward. Sword first and thrusted then with the other, slashed.

Draco dodged and blocked his attacks, striking back every chance he got. He vanished breifly, reappearing behing Iran, his sword up and ready to strike
Aura stooped at the back entrance, listening to the fight inside. She shuddered in anticipation.

Iran elbowed Draco in the gut and dropped on of his swords and gripped Dracos throat. "Hehehehe..." he chuckled gripping tightly enough for Draco to drop his sword.

Sakari darted past Aura and took out her energy blades and slashed at Irans arm to let go of Draco. "You b***h!" he sad angered and threw Draco and gripped Sakari.

Draco landed heavily on the floor, gasping for Air. Aura came running in, and saw him struggling to breath, then she saw Sakari in Iran's grip. She darted to him and slashed his face, the darted away again before he could retaliate.

Iran ignored the pain and shot a dark Fire ball at Aura, making her parazlized temporarily from the darkness. He looked at Sakari. "Your Neros arnt you?" he asked with a twisted smile, raising her up. Still tightly gripped. 

"GHHHHH..." she couldn't breath, she stared kicking Irans chest and head make him let go of her.

Nero darted down the corridor and saw that some of the blood of the guards were gone. "Aura..." he muttered.

Draco saw Aura frozen with the dark energy flowing through her. He noticed that her eyes were closing slowly, indicating that she was loosing consciousness. "No..." He said with a raspy voice, the looked back at Iran, hatred and rage coursing through his eyes. He wanted to attack, but knew he couldn't, because he knew Iran would use Sakari as a shield.

Iran chuckled evilly and said, "It's time it took something dear to him..." He straightened his hand, his nail like a knife tip. He thrusted it trough Sakari's gut as if she were butter. "Ahhh...." she gasped loudly. She felt the pain of the wound and blood purged out of her mouth.

Draco yelled out "No!" The gripped his torso where Iran had elbowed him. He bagan coughing up blood as the blow took it's toll. Draco looked up at Aura, seeing her eyes almost closed, then looked back at Iran and Sakari. *Nero!!* He contacted him telepathically. *You've got to get here now!!* He shouted in the connection.

Nero ran to the room. It's as if time slowed as he ran in, seeing Sakari stabbed and falling from Irans grip. He ran and slid to Sakari holding her to his arms. "Sakari!! No...nononononono...." he said and yelled, "Curaga!" nothing happened. Irans dark energy engulfed her would in dark energy. "No!" he yelled and held her, tears running down his face like a stream. "N-Nero...." Sakari got out.

Iran turned to Draco and casted Dark Curaga and healed Aura and Draco. "Lets have fun with this!"
 
Aura was unaffected by the dark healing cast, and fell to the floor unconscious.
Draco stood up, a new determination pulsing through him. A reddish black haze began to form, swirling around Draco. His sword dissolved as red snaking tattoos formed along his arms and neck, ending at his wrists and abouve his eyebrows. From the ashes of the old sword, two new swords formed, one blacker than ebony, the other silver, one with a bool red counterweight, the other with a dark purple counterweight. Draco smiled in a psychotic fashion, and chuckled cruely. "I agree, let's make this fun."
 
"Hahahahahahhaaha!!!!" Iran laughed and charged to Draco.

"Nero...I'm so sorry...I-" Sakai Coughed up blood and felt her wound. "... Nero...stay strong. Keep to your code...be vigilante..." she said putting her hand on his cheek.
"O...okay..." Nero got out with tears down his face and eyes in devastation.
Her arm slid off cheek, leaving a smear of her blood on him. She whispered to him with her last breaths, "I will...always..be with you...I........I love you." she used the rest of her strength to kiss him on last time and smiled with her last moment. Her eyes closed and passed away. "Sakari...no...NOOOOOOO!!" Nero cried out eyed full of tears. He held her and cried out at the top of-his lounges. 
Skye saw though the scope and saw Sakaris death. Her eyes were in tear and was tempted to blow Irans brains all over the floor, all she had to do was pull the tigger. 

Draco heard Nero yell out in a mournful shout. His fury was renewed once more as he fought even faster than before, landing blows here and there with his sword, each one deeper than the last. He fought for his own pain, he fought for Nero's pain, he fought for all the people who had suffered under Iran's rule. He fought for his mother, he fought for Sakari, for Aura, for Skye, Sohkan, Shikani, Rikaru, Chris, for himself, but he fought most of all for Nero, wishing that he could take away his pain.

Iran began to predict Dracos moves. He dodged each of them and slashed Draco in the chest and legs then kicked his shoulder to dislocate it. "Ahh...the cries of agony...?!" he turned and felt an ominus power, greater than his own.

Nero stood up, fist gripped. His Aura was a crimson with a hue of Gold. "You degenerate...SON OF A b***h!!!!" Nero raised his gauntlet and gripped it. "Restriction code: Horsemen realeaed. Deploying Interruptional Space field..." A ring spread around Nero and His gauntlet realeaed it's locks. "CODE: W.A.R. Stating Reciting Words. "When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one.
The feild glowed the same color but darker. Nero place his gauntlet over his face, as if he were putting on a mask." Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword...WAR! COME FORTH!!!!!" 
Nero swiped his gauntlet down and he was engulfed in the energy.

Draco was doubled over on one knee, panting. the tattoos began to fade as his injuries became worse and worse. He looked up and saw the transformation that Nero was going through. His eyes widened. *Oh, s**t!* He thought. *I've got to get Aura out of here!*
He stood up despite the pain and walked over the where Aura lay unconscious. He tried to rouse her, then realized that she wasn't going to wake anytime soon. *Oh, no. She's gone into comatose!!* He thought. Draco picked her up and held her to him, putting up a forcefield of dark energy around them, hoping that would keep them safe until the batle was over.

The energy faded and emerged an entity. He was enormous. Atleast 5 times bigger than Nero. he was in a crouthing position with his blade in the ground from what used to be Renesancce. He stood and flipped right Side up. His gauntlet was larger than Neros when it was sealed. "Draco." he spoke in a royal kind of voice, like a strong king. "You need to stay in that feild.
Draco nodded. "I plan on it." He said, his voice still raspy from his injuries.
Iran's face showed little expression, but he couldn't help but shake slightly, for even he was afraid of this new entity.

He looked at Sakari's beautiful shell of a body and blinked, "Child. Your wish will not be in vain." he looked at Iran and tightened his fist. "Iran Flameheart. You rotten peice of s**t."
Draco watched this entity as he held Aura, checking every now and then to make sure she was still breathing. He looked back up, his face flat and expressionless, but in his mind, he was in awe of this figure that had enough power to make his own father shake with fear. He called out to the entity "Hey, Do me and Nero both a favor." He waited until the entity looked at him, then said, "Kick this guy's a** to hell and back."
Iran simply stood, frozen in fear. He didn't even try to act cocky, as he usually did.
"Yes I shall." He pointed his emence blade at Iran, "Draw your blades."
Iran shot him a venomous look, then drew his broadswords, steping into a ready position.
"COME!!" War called, readying himself.
Iran dashed forward with a loud warcry, slashing at the entity's neck and chest, looking for an opening to deal a blow.
War gripped Irans blade with his gauntlet and flinged Iran to the wall. "is that all?"
Iran snatched his blade out of the entity's grip and began a complex string of attacks, slashing, punching, kicking, and using his Dark energy in black lightning bolts, baring his teeth the whole time he fought
War blocked his melée attacks with his Gauntlet. And deflected the bolt with his sword and shot it back to him. "Is this the best you Can do, Vampire?"
Iran was out of breath now,. He stood, looking for any kind of weakness in his opponent's armor. He then got an Idea. He charged as if to attack him head on, making a motion to fool him to put up his block, then he slid underneath his opponent's legs, coming up behind him and thrusting his sword towards his back.
War knew what he was going to do. He let Iran slid behind him. One he did, he turned and gripped his right arm with his gauntlet and his head with his other. He ripped his Arm off and slammed him into the ground.
Iran shouted in agony as his arm was torn from his body. He struggled to get up out off the ground, but couldn't due to the entity's heavy gauntlet. He finally stopped struggling, breathing heavily.
Draco stared in shock as this entity Not just injured Iran, but mutilated him. He was in awe, but slightly envious because he wasn't able to do that
War groaned as he was about to turn back. "This...is all I can do for you...Nero..." He repositioned him self and sat next to Sakaris body. He went to how he emerged and stood there for a moment. The aura formed and he disappeared, turning back to Nero when he transformed. "Hafff...Hafff..." he panted and fell to his knees.
Draco lowered the Dark energy field and lowered Aura to the ground gently. He then started walking towards Nero slowly due to his injuries. 
Iran laid on the floor, seemingly unconscious. He opened his eyes and looked up, seeing that Nero was back to normal, He thought to himself *Now's my chance.* Iran stood silently and postioned his sword to stab Nero through the back
Draco saw this and Shouted "Nero, look out!" then darted in front of Iran, taking the blow through his chest. "Huurg!"
Nero pushed Draco out of the way and punched Iran with his gauntlet. He saw Iran fall and Nero darted on top of him and slammed his fist rapidly into his face. "Die...die...Diediediediediediedie!!!!" Nero yelled and slammed his fist in him more viciously. 
"Nero! Enough!" Chris shouted with an elite squad. He ran to him and pulled him off, "Enough..." he hugged Nero, "Eniugh is enough...you won." Nero wheezed in rage and began to cry. He cryer softly then loudly to everything thats happened. "Nero wha-." Ky ran in and saw there room a wreck. Then he saw Sakaris dead body. "Oh God...Nero.." he was about to cry as well and went to Nero and hugged him as well. The medic team secured Draco and Aura. They also retrieved Sakari and put her on a stretcher,
Draco struggled to breath as blood began pooling in his lungs. hte blade had misse his heard, but punctured a lung, and now it was causing him trouble. he coughed, blood spurting out of his nmouth, then managed to tell the medics " Wait a sec." He turned his head to look at Nero. "Nero..." He began coughing up blood again
Nero weezing was now heavy breathig, "Y-ea?" he asked, still crying
"I'm sorry." he struggled to say, fighting back another round of coughing. "I... couldn't stop.... him. I could've...but I.... Didn't. I was... I was..." Draco began couging violently, fighting to breath. His eyes began to tear up as he thought about what had happened leading up to Sakari's death. "I'm sorry!." He said in a breathless sob.
"Don't be." Nero said in a normal, but saddened voice. "Its not your fault...it's not..." 
Chris looked at the area and saw iran on the ground, hopeless. "Arrest him." he said walking away and saw the medics take away Draco. He walked to Nero and lifted him up. "Let's go, Nero."
"Yeah..." Nero said as he lifted him up.
