Chapter: Holy Union"Assistant Commander, we've received another report!"A voice crackled through our communication devices inside the military convoy."A demon has been sighted near Tigers high school!"Daniella's eyes widened."What?

"We're splitting up."She turned toward Felix."I'll take a unit to the high school. Agent Felix, you head to Harassan's corp.""Yes, Ma'am."Alex sat silently in the back of the vehicle, listening to every word.Something about this didn't feel right.

His hands trembled slightly as he checked his weapon.Alex glanced at his name tag.Jack."Hey," Alex said quietly.Jack looked at him."It's going to be fine."Jack forced a smil

Chapter: The first testAlex sat in his chair, waiting for his name to be called.Did I do the right thing?He glanced around the hall, his fingers nervously tapping against his thighs."Alex xavier!"His name echoed through the hall"I'm here!

"Daniella?"The girl stopped in her tracks and turned around. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Alex, who stood before her looking perfectly fine "Alex? You're alright?" She exclaimed. "I thought you would have to go into a coma or something."Alex chuckled,scratching the back of his head."Well, I'm fine.""What are you doing here?" Daniella asked, her curiosity evident.Alex almost answered, but his name echoed through the hallway once more."Alex xavier!"Looks like I have to go," he said hurriedly.

Chapter: Guilt and ResolveAlex opens his eyes again, he was laying on a stretcher, bright lights flashing above him as medics prepared to load him into an ambulance."Alright, load him up," a deep voice barked. A tall, dark-skinned man in a dark blue jacket emblazoned with a silver cross logo waved the team forward. Alex suddenly jolted upright, ignoring the sharp pain in his back.The agents and medics around him froze in shock."I'm fine," Alex rasped, trying to stand."Really, I don't need—""Don't move, kid," one medic warned.The argument grew louder until a calm, authoritative voice cut through the noise."Leave us alone."Assistant commander Lucy stepped forward. The agents and medics immediately saluted and backed away without another word. "Alex, right?" She asked softly, her sharp eyes studying him.Alex was stunned. She actually remembered his name."We're here to help," Lucy continued, genuine concern softening her usually stern expression."I know…I'm okay," Alex forced a weak smile. "You don't

Chapter: A different outcomeThe morning light filtered weakly through the curtains of Alex's bedroom as he stared awake for the second time that day. His eyes shifted downward searching for the mark he had first noticed early in the morning.It's still there. Disappointed. Hoping it was all a dream. Clang. Clang.The sharp sound of plates clashing downstairs pulled him from his spiraling thoughts. He padded down stairs in his bare feet, the steps creaking under his weight.In the kitchen, his mother stood by the sink, hurriedly arranging dishes. She looked up at the sound of his footsteps, her eyes softening with maternal warmth."Good morning, honey," she said, her voice gentle but laced with unspoken worry."Good morning, Mom,"Alex replied.she hesitated, the question clearly dancing on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed it back. Instead, she busied herself with her bag."Where are you going, Mom," Alex asked leaning against the doorframe."To work," she answered, glancing at the clock. " How are you

Chapter: A scar in the darkBlack vans screeched to a halt at the mouth of the alley. Doors flew open before the engines fully cut.Men and women in dark tactical gear poured out—silver-etched patches on shoulders reading Elite squad. Rifles slung low, blades sheathed at hips. Perimeter up in seconds: floodlights snapped on, barriers erected, scanners humming.Alex sat frozen beside Thomas's headless body, knees in cooling blood, staring at nothing.A woman stepped forward—tall, sharp features, short black hair tucked under a cap. She stopped a respectful distance away."Are you Alex xavier?"Alex lifted his head and met her gaze. He wiped the tears from his cheeks roughly."Yeah," he croaked. "That's me.""My name is assistant commander Lucy Hashi," Lucy said.Lucy's gaze swept the scene—Thomas's corpse, the blood spray on the wall. Her lip curled in quiet disgust."Agent Luca!" Lucy called out.A broad-shouldered man snapped to attention. "Ma'am!""Take three agents and sweep the block. See anything, report b

Chapter: Promises and Blood100 years ago… Steel screamed as their blades met, the impact jolting up Lucien's arm. Alchalis pressed forward immediately, no hesitation— a downward cut that Lucien barely turned aside. Sparks spat into the rain. Lucien stumbled back. Too strong. Alchalis advanced with controlled fury, each strike precise, economical. No wasted movement. A thrust—Lucien twisted away, felt the wind of it kiss his ribs. A backhand slash— Lucien ducked, the blade slicing a lock of his hair free. "Why did you do it?," Alchalis yelled out. "You wouldn't understand," Lucien said dragging in sharp breaths. "You betrayed me brother," Lucien said. A thrust— Alchalis came rushing in with his sword. Lucien twisted using his sword to block the attack. Unbalanced— Lucien gave an opening and Alchalis noticed this and came rushing, slashing the chest of lucien, sending him to the ground, Alchalis tried to drive the sword into Lucien but Lucien was strong and quick enough to use his sword to deflect t
