Desire in Shadows

Lawless City. (Season 2 )

Inside the Throne Room at Mitsugoshi, Cross whose sitting in this throne his helmet sitting on the Armrest. Beside him Alpha and before him stood Beta, Gamma, Epsilon, Zeta and, Eta whose on the ground messing with a puzzle game. Each one of them giving a report. While behind them, the several members of Shadow Garden with their hoods up, were kneeling. 

Beta: There has been no conspicuous activity by the Cult of Diabolos in the Midgar Kingdom since the incident at the Bushin Festival. The Smaller groups were already at a standstill, and now the Fenrir sect, which was in the process of restructuring, appears to be immobilized by the confusion, as well. 

Gamma did a slight neck bow to him. 

Gamma: It is all going exactly to your vision, My Lord. 

Epsilon: Now we can set our sights forward and we can focus our main efforts on the situation in the Oriana Kingdom. 

Zeta stood there with her arms crossed. 

Zeta: But there is a troubling bit of news. 

Eta looked up at him. 

Eta: There has been a recent acceleration in the flow of funds going into the Lawless City. 

Cross had his head leaning against his hand as he listened. 

Cross: Really? 

Alpha looked over at him.

They all looked at him. 

Beta: That region doesn't belong to any nation. It's a giant slum where the evil, wealth, and power of the world converge. Any tensions that occur in that region could have a immeasurable effect on the rest of society. 

Gamma: Although we would like to focus all of our efforts on accomplishing our plan, unfortunately, I must suggest that we dispatch additional personnel to immediately- 

Cross: I smell it... 

Everyone reacted to him when he said that as they panicked to check themselves. Zeta checking her tail , while Eta sprayed herself with air freshener . 

Cross: The Lawless City... Reeks of blood.

The sky light above them opened to let some fresh air in. They all looked up to find the Moon Crimson .

Cross: A storm is approaching . Provoked....by blood.

Beta: The moon... 

Gamma: It's unusually... 

Eta: Red... 

Epsilon: In fact, it looks just like the legendary...

Cross: " When the moon shines Red... the queen of Vampires will rise " The Red moon ...

Kneeling among them , Lambda and Nu attended. 

Lambda: The tragedy of a thousand years ago... 

Nu: In that Case, The Lawless city will... No, if nothing is done, all surrounding nations will be subjected to catastrophic damage. 

Alpha: Silence, all of you. 

They went silent when Alpha spoke. 

Alpha: Whether it be the Legendary Red Moon or not, we cannot merely sit here and gaze idly at the sky. We seven Shadows will- 

Cross: No... I'll go. 

She looked at him as put his helmet on. His visor glowed as he rose from his throne. 

Cross: I haven't been able to get a proper hunt in these last 2 months. This one is mine... 

Beta stepped forward with worry in her voice.
