Armani Phantomblade: The end of time part 1

Prologue

Sitting alongside KuroNeko and Satori, Armani was watching the surveillance of demons and humans just in case something bad popped up. He watched it closely and noticed a chip of his skull fall onto the machine. More and more pieces dropped to the ground and Armani began shuddering and shaking before waking up with a cold sweat. It was late at night, about midnight or one in the morning, Armani was dressed in his plain white sleeping gown and his wings were slotted into his back neatly so he didn't damage his wings. He began walking sleepily to the capital of Ortaku town to check the surveillance cameras on the demons and humans. He noticed a large crack on the side of his skull, he remembered that he'd gained this in an explosion during the last battle nearby which was only one year ago. If Kumosaki and KuroNeko hadn't have pulled him out of the way of the explosion, he would have died from it. 

"What are you doing up Armani?" Kumosaki asked sleepily as he entered the room.

"I couldn't sleep." He replied.

"The nightmare of you falling apart in-front of us? Yeah, I can imagine how bad that is." Kumosaki said back.

"Well, maybe if I hadn't gone after the final demi-demons last year, I wouldn't have this scar." Armani sighed.

Kumosaki made a noise of disgust before standing next to his friend checking the cameras. He began rubbing the burnt side of his face and put his arm around Armani's bony shoulders. He saw the demon open a secret portal which was a deep black and disappeared. They watched the screens for half an hour when he re-emerged with a new living species that they had never seen before. 

"Kumosaki, did you see him?" Armani began.

He turned around to notice that his friend had already gone to track this demon down and bring the living creature to him. The shadowy figure of Kumosaki sneaking up on the demon. He watched the two figures struggle with Kumosaki being victorious in killing the demon. He grabbed the living species and erased the demon from existence. 

"Hey Armani! You may wanna see this!" Kumosaki yelled in the cameras direction.

Armani emerged beside his friend and noticed the strange creature cowering in the corner. The creature had yellow skin, black lines across his eyes, five small spikes along his head and dark red eyes. His blue clothing was rags and his feet were dirty. 

"Kaina Durota Shikatona!" The creature squeaked.

"Sorry, I don't understand, what dimension are you from?" Armani asked.

"I am from the dimension you demons call: Dimension X!" He replied in English.

"Impossible, there are no living species in Dimension X!" Kumosaki bellowed.

"Nagasa Nagasa! There is! We hide in the shadows and live in the forest of tall trees! We have a large civilization you have never seen!" The creature remarked.

"Who are you?!" Armani asked impatiently.

"My name, is San! My species is Saitama, we all look the same as me, the only difference being the black markings on faces. We have black markings on us that you have never seen the likes of. We call these our Skaru! Which are what the elders of our civilizations and tribes brand on us when we are born. They cannot be wiped and cannot be removed. They dissolve with our skin when we die." He replied.

"Well, we are taking you home for good!" Armani said.

Armani grabbed San by his arm and spun round in fear as he heard the unmissable sound of the Wendigo. This was a creature that was tall in build with yellow decaying skin and deep sunken eyes. Their sharp teeth could rip through any flesh from demons, demi-demons, humans and now, Saitama. He dragged him to the same spot where Kumosaki was hiding as an unmistakable shadow of the Wendigo scuttling past the small space hunting for prey. There was a poor demon who was out past curfew and fell victim to the Wendigo's might. The claws of the Wendigo went high into the air and ripped off the poor demons face. The Wendigo dragged the Demon by his legs to a spot in the center of town and called the rest of his kind to the spot to eat their feast. Armani noticed they were surrounded by Wendigo and had one option only, to open a portal to Dimension X. 

"They have never been this close to the city before, what are they doing?" Kumosaki whispered as he watched them feast on their prey.

"I don't know, but I don't want to wait to find out!" Armani replied. 

He opened the portal which made a loud whirring sound so he had to push Kumosaki and San into the portal in-order to get them away from the Wendigo quicker. Kumosaki had just pulled San in when the first Wendigo had come round the corner. Armani grabbed Kumosaki and threw him into the portal before closing off the portal and running into a new hiding space. The Wendigo launched itself from building to building before landing on Armani. He pulled Khalida out and ran it through the Wendigo's chest. He kicked the corpse off of him and ran for his life slicing the Wendigo's in his path so he could hide from them. The Wendigo patrol was getting worse and the only thing that would scare them away now, is either flames or daybreak. Armani would use his fire powers to his advantage to scare the Wendigo into a cave and eradicate them once and for all. He made a huge fire ball and sent it into the sky so the Wendigo began screeching loudly and heading for the nearby cave. He flew after them and set fire to the cave systems killing all inside. He opened the portal to Dimension X and went after Kumosaki and San. He needed to tell them everything that had conspired now more than ever. They had seen the Wendigo eat a human but hadn't seen Armani wipe them out.
