The Path to War
You woke up and cough. You looked down to find more blood stained on your cloths. Chelsea was still snuggled into you and softly snoring. You manuvered out of her grip and set her gentlyagainst the mountain side. You clutched your stomach as you shambled down the path. You triped and fell onto the rocky ground. You crawled to a nearby tree and propped yourself up. You pulled on the lowest branch and it snapped dropping you back onto the ground with a thud. You groaned as you jammed the branch into the ground and pushed yourself up. You leaned your weight on the flimsy branch and turned behind you. You left a blood trail with big splotchs from where you fell. Your breathing became rapid as your chest bean to fill with pain.
(Y/n):W-What is wrong with me?!
Angel:Your injured.
You groaned and it turned into a cough.
Demon:Watch it there. You die we are out of a job.
(Y/n):Thats two checks on positive for dying.
Angel:Rude!
(Y/n):What are you two doing here?
Angel:Well to be honest we were here to see if you had made your choice, but now we are gonna lead you to a friendly face. Now get a move on!
(Y/n):I can barely breath and you want me to walk al-
You were cut off as you cough and sent blood flinging onto the ground.
(Y/n):Why is this-
Demon:Mine.
(Y/n):M-Mine?
Demon:Yeah she shot you when you first met. So that combined by being mauled by a giant dog, multiple gun wounds, and being impaled by a tree, there is no possible way you have healed. Plus all the extra stuff those girls-
Angel:Alright! Alright! We are wasting time!
Demon:I guess your right. Come on.
You leaned on the branch and began to walk forward.
(Y/n):C-Can I ask you guys a question?
Angel:Why don't you try to conserve your energy?
Demon:Depends on the question.
(Y/n):what i-is so important about this choice.
Demon:To give you the short anwser it is going to determine the entire fate of humanity.
(Y/n):From choosing between girls?!
Angel:Of course not! That is just for fun. The real choice is between the two factions battiling over you.
(Y/n):N-Night Raid and the Jeagers?
Demon:Bingo.
Angel:Hooray! We have arrived!
You looked up and saw an old shack. In the front was a man tending to his garden.
(Y/n):Who is that?
The man must of heard you because he looked up and his expression changed. You thought it would be one of terror at the sight of a bloody stranger, but no. It was an expression of joy.
Gardner:Is that you (Y/n)?
You reckonigized the voice. It was Mr. Oliver from Mr. Thomas's mansion. You smiled and walked forward. You regretted that very quickly. Your branch snapped and you fell face first into the dirt.
Mr.Oliver:Honey , quick!
You heard footsteps approach you and a door swing open.
???:Oh dear!
You were dragged up onto a porch. You vision became hazy.
Mr.Oliver:You hold on now young man. I didn't wait years to see you again just for you to die on my doorstep!
You vision turned to black.
Timeskip.
You woke up in a bed. You sat up and you felt a pain. You clutched your stomach and discovered bandages. The door opened slowly and Mr.Oliver revealed himself holding a teaset.
Mr.Oliver:Ahh your awake earlier than expected.
You groaned and tried to get out of the bed.
Mr.Oliver:Now you hold it.
He walked over and set the tea down. He pushed you back down and pulled a chair to the side of the bed.
(Y/n):How long was I out?
Mr.Oliver about a day. I though it would at least be a week before we saw you moving around.
(Y/n):We?
Mr.Oliver:Oh right. Carla can you come here?!
You heard a shuffle and someone else came through the door.
???:Oh is your friend awake?
An old woman entered the room and pulled another chair to the bed. Mr.Oliver rested his hand on hers and smiled.
Mr.Oliver:(Y/n) this is my wife.
(Y/n):Nice to meet you mam. Thank you for the hospitality.
Mrs.Oliver:It was the least we could do for you giving my husband back.
(Y/n):Huh?
Mr.Oliver:Mr.Thomas forced me to work there similar to you. If not for you there is a chance I might have never seen my wife again.
(Y/n):Glad to help.
Mr.Oliver:Now can you tell us what happened to you?
You sighed and ran a hand through your hair.
(Y/n):It envolves a lot of women and violence.
Mr.Oliver:Well give us the details.
(Y/n):I became a murderer of sorts going around killing nobles until I stle an important imperial arms. There I began to be hunted by Night Raid. I managed to escape the first time, but I was corned and kidnapped with a kid named Tatsumi. We were taken to their base and they asked us to join.
Mrs.Oliver:You are one of those assasins i have heard about so much recently?
(Y/n):Yes mam. Well not to later on I was chosen to be the lover of the general Esdeath. I was made a member of the new task force designed to hunt Night Raid. The Jeagers. So I am an target of myself. And then there are girls from Night Raid and the Jagers who claim to love me. And I have no idea what to do.
Mr.Oliver:Do you want some advice?
(Y/n):Of course. Your advice is what got me this far in life.
Mr.Oliver:The way I see it you are gonna have to choose. Either Night Raid or the Jeagers. Who ever you choose it seems like you might have to kill the other. Not just for fun, but since of your medical problem it might be hard for you to control yourself when being begged by both sides. And with the girls you need to pick from the survivors. You need to pick someone you know you can love and spend the rest of your life with.
Mrs.Oliver hugged her husband and you smiled.
Mr.Oliver:You might want to choose becasue I fear you may not have much time.
(Y/n):What do you mean?
Mr.Oliver:Just yesterday a high ranking offical was assasinated in the town nearby. And I heard the rest of the Jeagers were brought here to deal with Night Raid.
(Y/n):Which town?!
Mr.Oliver:I believe it is called Kyoroch.
You jumped out of bed and serched for your gear.
Mrs.Oliver:I am sorry, but I had to throw your old cloths out. If you want it would be a great honor if you wore my fathers armor.
(Y/n):I would be the one honored mam.
She motioned you to follow her and she pointed to a room.
Mrs.Oliver:sorry it is to heavy for me to move.
(Y/n):I will try it on.
You walked in a closed the door after minuets of struggling you managed to put it on. You came out and showed them.
Mrs.Oliver:Wow you look just like my father. Now go get your girl.
You nodded and began to run as fast as the slightly bulky armor would allow. You were almost out the door when you felt a hand tug at your shoulder. You turned around and it was Mr.Oliver.
Mr.Oliver:I know you will make the right choice.
You nodded and ran toward the town.
Timeskip.
You came upon a clearing and it was close to night. You looked at the town and got an idea. You summoned a flare gun and aimed it at the sky. Pulling the trigger a (F/c) cannister shot up and exploded. You knew you had to wait awhile. You were going to wait till you heard several footsteps. You turned and it was the Jeagers. You noticed Esdeath was with them and did not look too happy.
Esdeath:(Y/n).
She began to walk towards you till you heard a voice on the opposite side of the Jeagers.
Najenda:You will approach him no futher!
You saw it was Night Raid. Chelsea sat at the back of the group with a reliefed look on her face.
Esdeath:If it isn't former general Najenda and her traitors of the empire.
Najenda:(Y/n) belongs with the liberators of your tyrannical rule. Not as some pet you can discard at any moment.
Esdeath:Even if (Y/n) is a member of you traitors I love him enough to give him a second chance.
Mr.Oliver was right. This arguing was bringing back terrible memories that were helping your other personality leak out.
Akame:(Y/n) please join with us and defeat the Jeagers once and for all!
Kurome:(Y/n).
You looked at the girl. She was looking down ith a shadow covering what you could see.
Kurome:Learning of your betrayal hurt. But.
She looked up at you with sad eyes.
Kurome:I love you too much to let you go. Please come back to us.
Akame:Little sister you need to back down. I do not wish to fight you, but I will not let you have (Y/n).
You were cracking a bit more and more. You brought a hand to your head. A throbbing headache starting to take over.
Mine:(Y/n) you get over here right now!
Seryu:No (Y/n) join me on the side of justice and we, together can rid this world of evil.
Mine:Your crazy if you think I will let (Y/n) go to you!
This was it. the shouting back and forth was about to get to you.
Najenda:(Y/n).
You looked up at the former general.
Najenda:I hope you will make the right descion. Think of what you sister would want you to do.
She extended her hand toward you.
Tanner:Dad?
You turned to your son.
Tanner:I will go with you no matter where you go. Just know that.
Esdeath:(Y/n) my love please take my hand and return to me.
Esdeath extended her hand and you lost it. You had mere seconds left before you went crazy and killed someone. Now the only question that remained. Who is gonna be in your sights?
