Epsilon, are you trying to get us all killed?!

Epsilon froze in his spot from against the wall. He never really thought of murdering his brethren.

Your life is depending on what mood I'm in, Epsilon joked back at Griffin. Over in the fifth corridor, Epsilon heard Griffin snort then a smack against skin for him giving away his and Phoenix’s position. Epsilon glanced over at his partner in crime. Alpha had of course a bow and arrow in her hands. She just shot off an arrow towards one of the guards. One down, two to go.

Star, Phoenix, this is your captain speaking, and I’m saying shoot those bastards down. Almost as soon as Epsilon messaged this to his group of warriors, two arrows shot from different spots. Both of the arrows hit their targets, sending the guards to the floor just as the first guard. Epsilon turned towards Alpha, and the two of them had a silent conversation before they stepped away from their position and ran towards where their target would be waiting. One by one, each warrior came out their position and towards where Lord Rohaku was currently staying, while he waited for his transportation back to his Kingdom. Epsilon looked over his comrades and got a single nod from each of them. Epsilon turned back towards the large doors that lead to the room that held Lord Rohaku, took a deep breath, and pushed the doors open. The Chaotic Warriors raided into the room with their weapons raised. Phoenix and Star had their bows and arrows pointed at the foreign lord, ready to shoot anything that moved, especially Lord Rohaku. Forge and Alpha held Forge-made daggers, while they were shooting daggers from their eyes at Rohaku, and Epsilon and Griffin had swords that were created from Chaotic Silver. Lord Rohaku looked at all of the weapons in shock, his wide eyes traveling to look over the Chaotic Warriors.

You?” Lord Rohaku asked in bewilderment. “But I haven’t done anything wrong!” Although he was saying this to all of the warriors, Lord Rohaku was just looking at the leader of the small group; Epsilon. Epsilon narrowed his eyes back at Rohaku.

“You killed hundreds of G’Folians and Luvendubris, and thousands of Zoites, and you did nothing wrong?” He snarled. Epsilon looked towards Griffin and Alpha and motioned for them to come with him.

“I did nothing wrong!” Lord Rohaku yelled at the three approaching warriors. “You can’t make me come with you! You can’t make me come with you!”

Epsilon almost laughed at this. Epsilon shook his head as he unsheathed his sword. “You actually think that you came here to take you with us? No, Rohaku, we came to kill you. My orders.”

        As the seven warriors of Chaos set onto the path that lead them to the Chaotic Palace, Griffin stepped up to his commander who seemed more stressed than he did when he first arrived as Percy. Griffin placed a hand onto Epsilon’s shoulder before whispering,

“Was killing him really necessary?” Epsilon turned towards his lieutenant, his eyes going hard.

“Killing him wasn’t only necessary, it was needed. He killed thousands of people, all of which were completely innocent.”

“But Perce—”

“My name is Epsilon! You’re the one that gave me that name, Griffin. You’re the one that came and got me after I left camp, so use my new name, or I’ll start calling you Luke once again.”

“Epsilon! Griffin!” Alpha’s voice broke through the two’s little argument. Epsilon turned towards his third-in-command, ready to pay attention to her as did Griffin. Alpha squinted her eyes and looked over the two suspiciously; the two had been arguing a lot lately. Ever since they heard the news. Epsilon hated the news, yet Griffin was excited to hear the news, just as every other warrior was. However, Epsilon just didn't want to do the mission—and that was definitely a first.
