At the doorway...at the doorway stood..well I shouldn't have been so surprised. There stood Uncle Akuma and a dozen of Archcades. Uncle Akuma's tall, slender figure was unmistakable, his sneer hard to miss.
People screamed and ran. Some were running towards the other entrances but it collapsed onto them.
"Oh, no. No indeed." came Uncle Akuma's drunken voice "I wouldn't go there if I were you..."
He pointed at the other entrances, exploding and burning anyone who is trying to get out or too near.
"Akuma!!" Mother shouted, "What is the meaning of this?!"
Uncle looked up and sneered at her "Why dear sister, I thought you knew. I told you to have a nice afternoon while you still can, didn't I?"
I flashbacked a few hours ago...but no one heard, only me. "Yes, I know. Well enjoy your evening, cherish this stupid day." He'd said. "Because it will be your last."
But why? Why did he so badly want to destroy the peace in his homeland after years and years of war? Why would anyone want to do that?
Apparently, Mother had the same question.
"Brother, do you hate me so much that you want to destroy the entire realm? It will bring chaos to the entire universe."
Uncle laughed without any humour "Yes sister, I hate you so. But that is not the reason why I wish to destroy the realm."
"What do you wish from us, little brother," said Aunt Selena coldly, my other aunts were glaring at him.
"Dear sister Selena. What can I wish for more? I am the Demon Phoenix of Evil and Chaos. I am chaos! I feed on fear and terror." Uncle Akuma's voice trembled with rage. "Mother and Father loved me at first! Their only son! But when they saw my true nature, what did they do? They banished me to Unaroixours Molouroz as if I was a ragged doll!"
"Akuma? How dare you talk about mother like that!!" shouted Aunt Clarissa staring at her older brother with horror.
Uncle Akuma sneered "How dare I? HOW DARE I, YOU ASK?!!! Mother banished me as if I was nothing! And you ask how dare I say this?"
"Brother," Aunt Clarissa said hurriedly "It is not too late to stop this-this madness. Call off the Archcades and think what you are doing."
"Silence little sister!" Uncle Akuma said, though his expression softened a little. "This is enough talk! Attack them! Destroy them all!!"
From the ceiling, an explosion sounded and crushed the roof and thousands of Demon Phoenixes and demons swarmed in. Circling everyone.
"Brother please!!" shouted Aunt Clarissa
Uncle Akuma and smiled kindly at her...he does have a soft spot for her. "You'll understand someday Clarissa...."
She turned away "I won't understand why a brother would hurt my heart so much."
Fire sprayed everywhere denigrating everything and everyone. I stood there dumbstruck watching in horror what was unravelling before my eyes.
"You see!" Uncle Akuma shouted with glee "The Paoroixours Molouroz will be destroyed! And I shall be Emperor of all the Realms!!"
'Oh....so that's why you wanna kill everybody and destroy the whole realm. Just to get your dirty butt onto that stupid throne eh?' I thought angrily and disgusted.
"Brother! Stop this nonsense this instance!!" shouted Mother over the fires
Akuma looked at her and sneered "I don't think so Kuponee Isabelle! First I will never stop and two....You. Are. No. Longer. MY. SISTER!!!"
