War's Warrior

Chapter 5

PREASANT

The pitch black space ship landed somewhere far away from Camp. The blond girl he had been tormenting a few seconds ago followed his gaze to where the ship landed. She seemed confused, obviously not knowing what he found interesting in an airplane.

The spaceship looked like a normal human airplane to those who did not know such a thing existed. People who didn't know it existed and weren't related to Order somehow saw something that did exist in their world  He quickly turned his gaze from the place where the spaceship had landed and back to the girl. He didn't need her to get suspicious. She'd probably do something stupid to satisfy her curiosity.

"Please don't hurt me," she said when she finally realized he wasn't now looking at where the spaceship had once been, but at her.

"You're lucky I didn't kill you," he said. And then he just walked away, just like that.

The first thing he did was round up the two leaders of the Void squad, Ice and Gold. They were in the Chaos Army enough to have been there during the war. They had experienced the horror of the Dark War and had survived with himself and some unfortunate others. Most of the other lucky survivors had gone insane soon after the war ended. Considering the pain they were still in, he dreaded to say that it would have been better if they had died during the war.

Ice and Gold were there instantly; they knew better then to keep him waiting. They looked annoyed but were trying desperately to hide it. He had, after all, interrupted whatever they were doing. He didn't mind, though. He couldn't care less about their opinions and complaints about his decisions.

"I saw a black spaceship today," he said.

"So what?" Ice gritted out. "It's probably some other person or persons also on a mission on Earth."

"You didn't let me finish," Shadow said calmly. "The ship looked a lot like a cloud. It also had a sphere on the side. And for the matter, no one uses black spaceships anymore, not since the war."

"That's impossible!" Gold protested immediately. "Order wouldn't dare attack Chaos."

"Do not mistake my father's greatest enemy to be a coward," he immediately defended his uncle.

"Are you supporting him?" Gold's eyes widened. "You were on Order's side during the Dark War, weren't you? And when Order lost, you just kept pretending to be on Chaos' side to save your own skin. That's why you're the only one that saw the ship. You traitor!"

"I did not betray my father in the Dark War, you idiot. I was the only one to see the ship because I'm the only one here connected by blood to Order. I may be adopted, but you forgot that in order to adopt me, Chaos preformed the Blood Bounding Ceremony, making me related to Order by blood. Don't assume idiotic things before you actually have all the facts and evidence. If you remember correctly, which you obviously don't,  many lives ended that way," Shadow said as the two shrieked back.

"So what do we do?" Ice asked. "Do you actually know that that was a Dark Ship? And don't we have to finish the war here before we can return and help with the Dark War 2 if there actually is one."

"For now, I want you to get all your soldiers in top fit. Tell them to be aware of an attack at all times but don't tell them why. Don't tell them about the Dark Ship and a possible Dark War 2. That will only strike fear and panic," Shadow instructed.

"And what about the campers and their war?" Gold asked.

"Train them harder. We will still actively fight in their war unless instructed otherwise by my father. During all of this, I want you two to think strategies and plans about the second Dark War. If anything happens, like a surprise attack perhaps, we will need part of the squad to leave to fight in the second Dark War temporarily,  while the second  half remains here to fight the Giant & Titans War. This is only a rough outline, remember that, but already start planning. We never know when Order may attack," Shadow said.
