601
It had been a month since the great battle between ClayMan and a dark force of daemons known as
The Crimson Gang.
After defeating their leader Kyoukichi and sealing him away with a red blade, the other daemons went on the run.
with roomers of the daemons acquiring a powerful new living weapon the likes of which PMC has never seen!
with the help of a newly found ally Gale Marit. we now find Clay who has tracked the remaining daemons to their secret layer deep within the dark woods of PMC. however, it seems not all is as it seems...
In the night a decrepit old castle stood in the night.
its halls dimly lit with torches and the moonlight from nearby windows.
A figure stands in the hall, later held in hand stepping down the hall to what seems like a dungeon.
as the light passes through the bars of one of the cells it hits a patch of thick Black hair and two prominent red horns.
the light reveals a blindfolded demoness chained to a wall.
the door to the cell was gone and the cell lay open and neglected. As Clay investigates the daemon addresses him in an innocent child-like voice.
???- "Who- Who's there?!"
“just an old lost soul… and who might you be my dear?…”
"I..."
"I'm Aella... "
“Aella... A strange name for a demon… tell me do you know who’s holding you here?”
she pauses for a moment.
"Akaishi, or so I think."
For a moment the two sat in silence as the places finally began to fall into place... perhaps... this woman could solve another problem he had been dealing with?
“Ah ya, that would make sense... tell you what, I can release you from your bonds, and you can help me with a little favor. Savvy?"
"Maybe... What kind of favor?"
"nothing too big, just need to help a friend of mine with a... project..."
"Yeah... As long as I don't have to do something I'll regret..."
"Splendid!"
Clay slips his hands to the chains bound to the wall, his hands began to glow like a red fire and the chain links melted down until broke from it's kin."
Clay then grabbed Aella by the hand and Aella felt something strange...She feels the cold clammy skeletal hands cup around her, a sharp and quick pain stab through the center of her palm.
"Ow !"
she backs away and whimpers
"What did you do to me?"
"it's just a percussion... pirates aren't exactly trust-driven people after all."
"Now let's get you out of this tasteless please shall we?"
As I'm about to rip the blindfold from her head, Akaishi is standing directly in front of the sell.
A dark-haired daemon, pail skin, and like myself has a knack for crime...
"Step away from the girl!"
"AH, Akaishi! still liking your wounds from the last time we met?"
"Don't even think about removing that blindfold..."
I go to draw the red blade I imprisoned Kyoukichi in so long ago and my pistol, but Akaishi was quicker to draw. Akaishi drew his iconic golden pistol and then blasted the blade with a single bullet, and it disappeared.
"you are such a naive fool, did you really think I would let you just walk in here?"
"well I was starting to think so... glad I was wrong."
In a swift motion, I grabbed the blindfold and ripped it from Aella's face, and fired a shot at Akaishi.
with the absence of the blindfold revealed a pair of stunning blue eyes... and something far worse...
"What have you done!"
Aella's face was adorned with a demonic grin.
"AHAHHAHAHAH!"
Her fingers began to crackle with blue electricity the wind circled around her as she lifted into the air.
I swiftly closed my fist and the curse that was placed upon her swiftly took effect. her arm was overcome with a black mold, her skin grew wrinkled and tight, and she then fainted and hit the floor...
"few... that was lucky."
"ya, good thing I had that curse huh?'
"ya, what was that?"
"Black spot curse, it's great for getting out of a bad spot ey?"
"HAHAHA!"
"AHAHAHAH!"
we laughed for a brief moment before remembering our situation. I placed the blindfold back over her face.
"So this is the weapon I've heard so much about?"
"ya she's powerful, but she's stuck with a split personality. the blindfold is the only thing keeping her at bay."
"and what happened to my blade?"
"Oh that, ya it's mine now. I knew you would try to use it on me so I used my gun to capture Kyoukichi's life essence."
"clever, you would have made a fine bilge rat Akaishi!"
"at least it's a fair trial, don't you think?"
"What is?"
"uhhhh... what- what happened?..."
"my blade for your girl of course!"
Clay flipped his pistol over and hit Aelle over the head with the handle knocking her unconscious once more, he and Aelle then disappeared into a cloud of green smoke.
after the ordeal Akaishi collected himself, then MadLibs112 walked into the room.
"Hay, I heard laughing and a lot of noise. is Kyoukichi back?"
"uh... ya but um... we got a problem."
To be continued...
