Ok then, now this chapter is going to include some deaths. Just a little warning for those that get queasy around death.

...

The fires crackled as soldiers yelled, rounding up the villagers and kicking those that weren't going as fast as the others. Inside one of the buildings was a small family, a girl of the age of seven and two mothers, huddled behind barrels that contained fruit, vegetables, and water. They then felt the ground shake and heard loud cracking along with shouts and laughter.

The door then slammed open and they heard soldiers walk in, their armor clanking with every step they took. Tears ran down the girl's face as she heard the steps get closer and closer. The barrels were then shoved away revealing a cruel face that smirked at them. He whistled out and said, "I found some treats boys!"

Two other pairs of footsteps came and they stared at the family, perverted and ugly thoughts running through them. "Let's get them out of here and bring them," another soldier said before they grabbed them and hauled them outside.

Once outside, the mothers pounced on the soldiers, screaming as they revealed the daggers they had hid. The two soldiers tried to fight back, but the mothers attacked with great speed as their daggers landed in the necks, sprouting blood. One of the mothers was suddenly thrown back by the third soldier, sword in his hand now. "No!" The other mother screamed as the soldier drove her sword into the mother he threw to the ground, killing her.

The mother and her child screeched as the soldier turned to them, the blood on his blade glistening from the fires that surrounded them. The remaining mother threw himself at the soldier, but the soldier stepped to the side and flicked his sword upwards. The mother fell to the ground, blood seeping out of her throat. "Mommy! Mum!" The girl shouted as she ran forward to them. The soldier backhanded her, sending her to the ground as she clutched her bloody nose, crying at the pain and the death of her mothers.

"Crazy bitches!" the soldier exclaimed as he turned to look at the girl. "Get over here! Now!" he said, walking towards her. She scrambled away from the soldier, fear etched into her face when the soldier stopped and jerked forward with a grunt. He then began clawing at his chest as he began coughing, blood spraying from his mouth. He then screamed as something red began to exit his mouth.

It was his heart, followed by more of his organs. The soldier at this point was grunting, his hands reaching for his organs before they dropped to his sides. The organs then fell, soon after followed by the soldier, dropping to his knees before flopping face-first into the ground with his rear sticking in the air.

It was then the girl noticed the man in all white standing there, his left hand lowering to his side. His hood obscured his face from her view, but she noticed the gray diamond on his chest, exactly like the diamonds on the soldiers that were lying around them.

"I see... what my soldiers have done," the man in white said, his tone deep and somber. He walked forwards and kicked the soldier to the side. He then walked towards the mothers on the ground before stopping. He then raised his arms into the air and chanted, "Evig llahs I secifircas eht rof  nruter ni! Ni ediser I mlaer eht ot kcab serhtom latrom owt eseht snirb ot eeht fo ksa I, srats dna, emit, dlo fo sdog!" For a few seconds, nothing happened. Then a beam of light came from the sky and landed on the two mothers, healing their wounds and making grass and flowers sprout from the ground. The beam then faded and the mothers blinked before they slowly got up, looking around, confused. The girl got up and ran to them jumping into their arms.
