Fireflies II

Prologue

The sky blazed a bright orange. No stars were visible in the night sky. The moon was broken and crumbled spreading fragmented light across the landscape. A city laid in ruins. The crumbled Hollywood sign could be seen glowing in the moonlight. Charred and burnt vehicles sat on the road. In several of them the skeletons of their owners were still sitting in them.

A bellowing and powerful roar echoed across the abandoned and destroyed city. Figures could be seen scurrying across several buildings. They were insect like in appearance. A few screams could be heard echoing throughout the city. A figure shot by quickly. The figure splashed through a puddle. Next to the puddle was a news paper. On it in large bold letters read; The Apocalypse Has Come.

The figure ran up to a car and looked into it. It was a female figure. She wore tattered clothing. The low light revealed the left side of her face. It was covered in a burn scar that went up and over her temple and ear. Her eye was missing leaving her with one good eye. Looking into the car she looked at the three skeletons in it. All three were charred and black. Reaching in she opened the glovebox. To her surprise a pack of cigarettes fell out. Reaching forward she grabbed them.

"Been years since I had one" she mumbled as she opened the pack up. Taking one out she placed it into her mouth. Fishing for a lighter she pulled one out of her nap sack. Lighting it she sat down next to the car. She looked back at her black feathered wings. They were a patchwork of scars and feathers. Breathing the smoke out through her deformed nose she looked back out across the city.

It was the year 2060, and the Earth was a burning and scarred rock. A massive war had broke out in 2030 and it had lasted almost ten years. The result of this war was a destroyed earth. The war in question wasn't a war between nations but a war between humans and immortals. A chain of events that had been triggered in 2015 started it all when San Fransisco had been attacked by an unknown force. 2017 was the year that Jelico, an all powerful dragon had been unleashed. The result was a massive battle in one night to defeat the dragon and its master. Humans and some immortals battled the beast. In the end the choice of one angel and the sacrifice of one human led to the dragon's defeat. This angel was named Jade West. She now sat smoking a cigarette and looking over what remained of LA.

Jade flicked her cigarette away and took another from the pack. She sat there, looking out over the city. Her face had been burned badly during one of the battles. The same battle her face had been burnt in she had lost her mate and lover Tori Vega. She was a werewolf the leader of all werewolves. Now werewolves were nothing but a distant memory, only two remained. They had been wiped out in the early years of the war. Now they were all gone. Very few humans were left in the world and even fewer angels.

The world now belonged to the forces of darkness and the old Gods. With the return of Zeus or as he came to call himself Raischenzo many immortals flocked to him. After his rise to power others came out. The first werewolf, Persephone, her older sister Lilith, and a powerful demon of Feudal Japan simply called The Raven. Each had divided the world up into different territories. North America belonged to Raischenzo.

Jade looked up, the moon shining above her. Her one good eye closed as she lowered her head. She was supposed to be the one pure of heart. Her and Tori. They were supposed to stop all of this from happening. There were more then enough things that had accumulated to cause this to happen. It all started after the defeat of Jelico. Getting up she brushed the thoughts aside as she started walking back the way she had come. Suddenly there was a powerful roar as a building was knocked over.

"My master told me to bring you back to him alive so as he can torchere you. However he's not here and I want my revenge" a booming voice sounded from behind her.

She turned slowly to see Jelico come out of the cloud of dust. His scaled body was covered in scars. His amber eyes looked at her as she backed up from him. He smiled as he stared down at her. Suddenly gold energy charged up her body. Punching her fist out she sent a golden ball of energy at him. The blast hit him causing smoke to wrap around him.

"Oh look, I have to defend myself now" he said as his chest started to glow brightly.

Her eye shot wide as she jumped to her left. A fireball came racing at her with blinding speed. She took off running as fast as her legs could carry her. Looking back she heard Jelico roar. He gave chase crashing through buildings. Her wings started to flap. She ran for a collapsed on ramp. Running up it she panted as her wings flapped harder. Jumping off of it she took flight. Glancing back she saw Jelico take flight as well.

"Here I come" he roared as he breathed a fireball at her.

She banked to the right, avoiding the fireball. She felt the heat from it skim her body. She glanced back at the dragon before looking forward. Her hand moved back to her belt. She pressed a device on it.

"He find you again?" A voice said into her ear.

"Yeah, he's following me now" she replied looking back.

"Charging, prepare to duck in three… two… now" the voice said.

She swooped down just as she did a purple beam flew over her. Glancing back she watched it slam into the dragon's chest. He roared out as the energy wrapped around his body. She smirked as two missiles flew by and slammed into him. "Just passed the barrier" she said. Looking back she watched as the dragon slammed into a barrier that shimmered with the impact. Turning around she hovered in the air and looked at the dragon.

"This won't protect you forever" Jelico growled before turning and flying away.

Jade smiled a bit, her scarred face moving the best it could. Her scarred wings slowly flapped lowering her to the ground. She stood there breathing deeply, the adrenaline wearing off as she watched the great dragon fly off. She heard the hum of engines pulling up behind her. Turning she looked to see humvees pulling up. A small band of soldiers got out each carrying assault rifles. They escorted her over to the vehicles and they climbed in. They drove back towards the way they had come from.

Cresting a hill they were given a beautiful sight. Lush green fields full of grass and flowers. Other fields were full of crops and farm animals. Past that there was a small city. They drove into it. People were walking around, families enjoying time together. She smiled a bit as she looked everyone over. This was New LA, with a population of ten thousand. This had been established in the early years of the war. Were-Vamp along with the government task force called Slayers built it. It took them three years to finish it and begin to fill it. In the center of the City there was a statue of two women. One was a woman with long hair. On her hands were green flames that never stopped burning. Behind that woman was Tori.

Jade got out of the vehicle and walked up to the statue. She reached out and placed her hand on Tori's figure. They had been immortalized in bronze as a tribute to their sacrifice. The two werewolves had given their lives to stop a massive assault on the city. Jade smiled a bit, her deformed face trying to smile.

"You keep pissing him off he's going to get lucky" a voice said from behind.

"That's why your in charge of The Death Angels" she said her voice somewhat slurred do in part to her scar.

"That's a fighting force for an invasion. We can't do much with M-4s, fifty cals and rail guns" the man said making her turn.

She looked at two men standing there. Both had jet black hair. The one on her left had a light green tinge to his skin. He looked very similar to the woman statue next to Tori. In fact she was his son. He just offered her a kind smile. He was a werewolf, just like his mother. The man next to him had a stern look on his face. He was looking at her, arms crossed as he stared at her. His blue eyes pierced her as she stood there.

"Relax Cale. First you're immortal now you have been since 2017. There's only three ways to kill you" she said with a sigh.

"Yeah, you, Jimmy, his kids, my mom and me are the only ones under the dome that are immortal the rest aren't" he said with a stern voice as they started to walk towards a tall building.

"Relax Cale, we all have been cooped up under this dome for fifteen years" Jimmy said making him look at him.

"There's a difference between being cooped up and trying to kill yourself" Cale said back to him.

Jade turned to face Cale who looked at her. Reaching into her pocket she pulled out the pack of cigarettes. She tossed them to Cale who caught them. He looked at the pack before looking at her. The three of them entered the building and moved up some steps. They came to the top floor of the building. This building was there's to live in. Their families lived in it too. The children were at school. The others were out doing their assigned work. They stood on a balcony over looking the city. There were at least twenty of these cities all around the world.

The shield had been developed thanks to the studies of Were-Vamp. It was replicated energy from ancient demons from Feudal Japan. It had saved many lives over the years. She felt a tap on her shoulder making her look. Cale passed her a cigarette as Jimmy poured them all a glass of brandy. They were in charge and oversaw everything that occurred in the city. They were fair and just leaders, trying to keep everyone together. A door opened behind them making them look.

First walked in two twenty year old women. Both had green and black feathers in their hair. They talked and laughed as two young children ran by them. They were Jimmy's daughters, part werewolf and bird demon. The children had been adopted by them after finding them almost wild. They had been found outside of the dome, hidden in a building with their dead parents. Behind them was a woman in her mid thirties. This was Cale's mother Melissa she like Cale was immortal thanks in part to the events of 2017. Behind them were two older women and an older African American man. They were Drake, Nikki, and Ashley, Cale's siblings. This was all that was left of their families.

"And this right here is why we think before we piss off a giant fire breathing lizard" Cale said lighting his cigarette.

Jade looked at him, her scarred face looking at him. "You all still have part of your families. Mines gone" she said lowering her head.

Jimmy turned her around to look at them. "They're your family too. We're all family" he said making her look at him.

"He's right, we all survived this long together. It wasn't just the weapons it was our connection to one another" Cale said smiling at her.

She smiled at him before turning to look over the city again. She glanced back to see them walk to join everyone. She crushed out her cigarette and looked at the city again. It was starting to shutdown people were going to bed for the night. Turning she walked back into her house and went to her room. Walking up to it she walked into her room. Looking around she saw pictures. Pictures of her and Tori, her friends, and her family. The war of 2030 took so much from her. So many people she loved were dead. Turning to her right she saw a mirror looking back at her. Walking over to it she looked at her reflection. The burn scar covered just about sixty percent of her head and face. The side that wasn't scarred had short cut hair.

Turning slowly she looked away, her scar reminded her all the time of Tori. Walking over to her bed she sat down and sighed softly. It had been fifteen years since Tori died. Not a day went by that her mind was filled with thoughts of her werewolf lover. Suddenly the earth shook throwing her off of her bed. Getting up she staggered through her door. Looking she saw everyone join her.

"Earthquake?" She asked looking at Cale.

He pulled up a holographic pad and looked at it. "No, there was no signs leading up to it" he said looking at her.

Suddenly sirens started wailing across the city. Her, Cale, and Jimmy both looked out the window. Walking out onto the balcony they looked around. A few buildings had toppled over. However no rescue crews were going to aid anyone. Instead the army was moving down the street. As they were they were ordering people into shelters. They were also drafting fighting age men into the army. Squads of Death Angels were moving onto rooftops. They gripped onto rail guns and rocket launchers. Suddenly there was a deep roar followed by a powerful shriek. The three of them looked up as Jelico flew past with a giant raven right behind him.

"Hello New LA" a voice boomed from the clouds. "Prepare to meet your end".

They looked up as a figure lowered from the clouds. It was Raischenzo. His body started to glow. As it did he extended his right hand towards the center of the city. A powerful black energy slammed into the dome stopping it. However his body glowed again and in a flash lightening charged down the beam. It slammed into the top of it causing the black to shoot down the whole dome.

They heard Jelico roar making them look up past him. His body was now streamline as he dove at the city. Suddenly he crashed through the dome. He slammed into the ground with a thunderous crash. He raised up out of the dust roaring loudly, fire burning out of his mouth. Defense systems appeared from the buildings and started firing at the dragon. Everyone started Firing at the dragon as he spun around burning the ground.

Cale walked over to a picture. Ripping it down he looked at a hole in the wall. Reaching in he grabbed his old mask he used to wear. Reaching further in he grabbed a large glowing rail gun. It was his own customized rail gun. Walking to the door he quickly spun around and started running for the balcony. Jade and Jimmy parted as he jumped off of the balcony. They watched him as he flew through the air he fired a shot. The bright green beam slammed into Jelico's head. The blast knocked him to the ground.

"He'll keep the dragon busy" Jimmy said looking down as Cale continued to fire at Jelico.

"And you?" Jade asked looking to him.

The Raven shrieked again making him look up. It flew by as it did a very powerful gust of wind came by. "I've got her" he said jumping over to another building. He landed on the roof and looked up. The Raven circled over again. "Midoriko" he shouted looking at the Raven.

Upon hearing him shout the Raven stopped and hovered in the air. It looked right at him. Slowly it swooped down, its wings circled around its body and out of the bottom came a woman wrapped in a feather cloak. Black spiked hair with red bangs sat atop her head. Opening the close the woman wore a black and green feathered dress. She looked at Jimmy, her irises were blood red while her sclera was a jet black color. On the back of her neck was a pentagram. "Hello Jimmy, how are the girls?" She asked with a smirk.

"Good, we're grandparents now" he said looking at her.

"I'd love to meet them" she said smiling, two fangs appearing from her mouth.

"Not going to happen, as far as we are all concerned you're dead" he said pointing a finger at her.

"But, I stand right here before you" she said smiling at him.

"No, I see a monster. We had a good thing going. You had been freed from your curse. We had a family and we were happy. Then he comes along in need of someone to control his undead army. He promises you power and you jump on it and abandon us. No, I do not see my wife, she's dead. I see Kuruchi and Moniku" he growled. His comment infuriated Midoriko. Suddenly they charged each other. As they did Jimmy became a white plasma covered werewolf.

Back on the balcony Jade looked as Raischenzo landed on a building. He was smiling as he looked the destruction over. Jade prepared to attack him when suddenly the door exploded off its hinges making her look back. Coming through the door she saw a woman with white hair. She had a wolf fur wrapped around her body. It was Yurei, the first werewolf. Two more people walked in behind her. One had jet black hair and bright red eyes. She was a vampire named Carmilla. She was once Jade's ally and friend now she was her enemy. Behind her was another woman an African American woman with deep red eyes. This was Summer, once a Death Angel now a vampire. She followed Carmilla and abandoned her family.

"Kill 'em all" Carmilla growled.

Jade looked on in horror as the two vampires and werewolf attacked and killed everyone in the room. Blood started to stain the carpet around the bodies. Looking back she saw Jimmy get decapitated by Midoriko. Looking beyond that she watched the army get destroyed by hordes of demons, vampires and undead. Cale roared catching her attention. He was jumping off of a building a battle ax in hand as he launched himself at Jelico. The dragon breathed out a fireball at him. He was consumed by the fireball killing him. Civilians were being slaughtered by the thousands. Tears dripped from her eye as she looked up to Raischenzo who was looking at her. Anger and hatred consumed her as she took off from the balcony. She flew towards Raischenzo who smiled. She landed on the building and looked at him.

"Jade, I commend you for surviving this long" he said bowing his head to her.

"You couldn't just leave us alone you won. The world is yours. You already killed Tori couldn't you just leave me in peace?" She growled looking at him.

"If it's any consolation. After I kill you I'll leave humanity alone. I have to kill the one pure of heart to make sure nothing can oppose me" he said with a shrug.

"So with my death, humanity will be left alone?" She asked looking at him.

"You've known me for thirty three years. In those years never once did I make a promise I didn't keep. I am a man of honor and you know that" he said walking around the building.

Jade looked at him before looking down to the slaughterhouse that was the streets below. There were at least fifteen more cities around the world that were full of humans. If she died the rest of humanity would be safe. More importantly with her death she would be united with Tori. Looking out across the city she sighed as she closed her eyes.

"It will be quick and painless" he said placing a hand on her shoulder. Before she could say anything he stabbed a golden blade through her neck. Her eyes shot wide before they sunk deeply. She died instantly at his feet.

Jade shot up in bed gasping. Her hand grabbed the back of her neck. There was no wound or blade. Kicking her feet over the side of her bed she sat there. Her wings glowing in the moonlight. Placing her face into her hands she sighed as she breathed deeply.

"This is the future to come" a voice said into her head making her look up. Just then she heard a deep gasp behind her making her look. Suddenly Tori shot up in bed shocking her.

"Tori, you're awake" she said quickly shooting over to her lover.

"Jade, we have a problem" Tori gasped looking over to her.

"Yeah, we do" Jade said with a nod.
