(Henry Raven)
Blood Empire
Gun blazes and fire explode and blazes through the streets as the Black Ravens advance through the enemy's defenses with everything caught on fire. Henry rides a motorcycle into the battlefield, he slash every single person of a rival gang with a sword, the World Snakes and the Red Wolves with his claws. He is a high ranking abyssal, after all. Rushing through he stumble across a little girl who in the crossfire hiding behind a broken car as her only protection. Initially, he tries to ignore her, but flickers of the former leader of the Black Ravens shouted out through their mind.Henry whatever do you do, save people's lives no matter what. Just save others, ok? We, Black Ravens need to value lives before the riches.
Steering the motorcycle to the little girl for her to hide from the chaos in a steel box. The girl looked young about seven or eight with tree bark like texture on her arms, lifting her head to see dirt covering her face and a small part of her hair is cut by the fire. Henry grab the girl and holding a gun in front of four men.
"I don't want to get my hands dirty in front of a child, but putting my buttons is a grave mistake," he snarled. Showing his fangs and his pupils become more cat like to show the abyssal blood he has. The men don't seem to care, well shit. He puts the girl in the box that is luckily not burning and turning on the music for her to never hear the violence.
"Don't open the door until I'm done ok," he asked. The little girl nodded and hide the box safe. Henry cracked his shoulder to fight them, gun and sword in hand. The first one run at him, but Henry dodge him and kick him back of the head. Pointing a gun at him, firing a bullet as the second man tries to stab him with a knife.
Too late.
The bullet pierce his heart and dies instantly with Henry throws the , blocking the third one with his gun and taking his knife. Stabbing him in the knee and slashing his hand in the process, using his switch hand technique he stabs the men in the stomach. The two men continue punching him while Henry blocks and dodge them. Reloading his gun to aim for clear shots, suddenly vines warp them, he notice the box was still closed. Was this the girl's magic? Swatting that away he fire about three bullets, the men died. Henry ran to the car to see the girl ok and unharmed.
"Sir, they run away. We got the substance that the SSO wanted, wait is that a girl," a member asked. He nodded and he explained that the girl might be important later on. So Henry carried the girl away from the battlefield.

He cleans the girl up with a nice bath. This feels so...refreshing, the girl hummed a song that he recognized and hummed too.
"You know that song," she asked.
"Yeah, I sing it along with my...family before...."
Henry fondly recalled the song, it's a lullaby that his family sing that when he was lonely and scared. A single tear fall to his eyes, the girl noticed and her eyes downwards into Henry. "Sorry was that a sensitive topic cause your crying...Henry." He wiped away his tears and having her a small smile. "It's fine."

Henry hears all of his members talking about a rebellion in the meeting room. He wonders why it that case. He opens the door and walks to a table. Sitting with concern about this conversation that they are brewing up.
"Ok, what are you saying a rebellion here? It's our purpose to defeat the other gangs," he boomed. Everyone was silent, Henry watches as an elite show him a logo of a crescent moon with a arrow on the middle with a flower design along with vines. The words explain all of this, join the rebellion. "You wanted to start the rebellion? If we do, we will be executed by the Campbell court," he slammed the table.
The doctor comes out to ease this mess, Henry crossed his arms to hear what the hell is going on.
"Sir, when I do the blood sample on the little girl it tells me that she is one of the forgotten. Creatures are forgotten for hundreds of years by the government, when I read the ancient texts and scrolls from the library I stumbled on something that the court never talk about nor a public speech," he explained. Henry arched his eyebrow with concern.
"It turns out the girl is a dryad from the land of Greece. The court lies to us that Hope Redfield is only the landscape that everyone knows about. That girl is the daughter of the queen of the dryads, they made the wall that no one should enter the boarders of other lands. Should anyone who escape will be severely punished."
Henry was overwhelmed by the information given to him. All of his working with the court was a waste. They were using lies to make everyone to believe that no creature are beyond the wall. The alphas were right, this dictatorship must put to death if the people wants to see another day.
"People of the Black Ravens, it's time to start a rebellion against the government."
REBELLION!
