Deep within the Netherearth, Mao, the Chosen Hero stood among the rubble and destruction that used to be the pitiful home for the mortals. He huffed a little and walked into the crumbling black castle that used to be the ruler's of this land. Well now, he was the ruler. He laughed loudly as he walked through the castle halls until he reached the throne room. Mao sat himself down clicked his fingers. Suddenly a screen came down showing him the Netherearth and what was happening. He watched the Netherearth with a smirk. Everything was perfect. He had everything. NOBODY could stop him. He laughed once more and clicked his fingers again. With that, the screen then disappeared into the ceiling once more. 

The chaos never ended. Demons of all kinds roamed the Netherearth. Good and bad. The apocalypse, as the humans called it was still raging on. Over half the humans in the world had been slaughtered or eaten. Humans were on the blink of extinction. All they could do was run, hide and cower in fear of the demons. Hoping somebody, that anybody would come. All the towns and cities are abandoned, most of them in ruins now. The day never comes. The sky is always black. A dark, evil aura is always in the air. The apocalypse never ended. It still goes on today and it's slowly bringing humans to their extinction. 

[b]Almaz[/b]

Almaz slowly walked through the Netherearth. Even now, it disgusted him that Mao could do such a thing. If only he knew, if only he knew what Mao was planning from the start, maybe he could of stopped him before it was too late. He clenched his fist and took a deep breath. He despised Mao. He would make him pay for what he did. This earth was his home and now it was in ruins. He looked around and walked over to a broken bench. He used his magic to quickly repair it, then he sat down. He sighed softly, and  took a deep breath. After that he looked up and looked around. He found it strange how there was less and less souls everyday. Why.....was this? What was happening to the world? He used to be a coward, but there was no time for that now. If he just stood around cowering, who'd help bring this world to peace? Besides, from what he has seen it's hard to be afraid now. He shook his head softly. He didn't know what to do. He needed help. He needed to find others. To find people who wanted to fight and bring this world to peace once more. He stood up quickly and pulled out two massive gauntlets from his pocket and equipped them. He then nodded to himself. It was time to change the world!

[b]Desco[/b]

Desco had always been amazed at the Netherearth. She found it amazing that the Final Boss had so much power. She looked around for a moment and watched as demons of all kinds roamed the Netherearth, sniffing out for human flesh. Set on destroying and killing the last remaining humans on the Netherearth. It was so evil, she loved it so much. She flew around with her butterfly wings with a soft giggle. She didn't care if the world changed or not. To be honest she loved the Netherearth. She wanted to stay here forever. Who wouldn't want to live here? It was great! Eternal Darkness, Demon Friends, it was so Final Boss like! One day, she wanted to be JUST like Mao.

[b]Flonne[/b]

Ever since the Netherearth came to place, Flonne spent her time spreading her love, courage and happiness to others. She had to keep the place happy and cheerful. It was her gift. To bestow love and friendship to everyone. Why? Well, why not. Friendship is magic. She raised her head a little as she heard a scream of fear, her eyes lit up quickly, and she began to dance over to the source. Once there, a demon named Exai was hunting a family. She giggled softly and spoke loudly.

"Put that gruesome weapon done and let LOVE into you heart! Let all your anger and sorrows fade away! Friendship is Magic!"

She giggled some more, and then blew a kiss at the demon. The demon huff and turned around, ignoring her but as soon as the magic kiss hit him, the demon screamed loudly. His body quickly burnt to ashes. She danced over to the family and helped them up.

"Don't worry. Love is with you now. You will be safe from the demons. Bye Bye!"

She giggled softly, and blew a kiss to the family. Then a shield shaped in a love heart formed around them all. With that the family ran away. Flonne then continued to dance away to save yet another family with love.

[b]Valvatorez[/b]

Valvatorez watched the chaos in the midst of.......well, night. It was always night. He sighed softly and shook his head. He didn't want this. He goes to conquer the universe and this happens? Damn it, damn it all to hell! He still had no idea who was behind this. He didn't even know if there were anyone fighting against this. He looked to Fenrich for a moment as he stood on the clock tower then looked back down.

"Fenrich, have you anything to report? Do you know the course of this? If anyone is fighting to stop it? Come on now, answer me. Don't keep me waiting Fenrich."

He looked around and then looked towards Fenrich, waiting for his answer.

[b]Laharl[/b] 

Laharl, even though he thought it went a little far, actually liked the Netherearth. Who wouldn't? He had plenty of insolent fools to fight and kill whenever he got bored. He sighed softly and shook his head. He had to admit. It was extremely hard to find a fight that was worthwhile anymore. It seemed all the strong guys were, well dead. He took a deep breath and sat down. He was so bored. He laid onto his back and closed his eyes with a bored sigh. A thought came to him suddenly, with everyone dead, maybe he really was the strongest overlord now? With that, a smile came upon his face.

[b]Kurtis[/b]

Kurtis sighed softly. Ever since this war had started 2000 years ago, he joined to help earth and stop it before it got too late but he alone didn't have the power. He was no Defender Of Earth. He shook his head as he sat down looking down at the Netherearth. There was no way one single person can stop this thing alone. He needed allies but where the hell was he to find allies in this? He had been searching for 2000 whole years and not a single person showed up that even had the potential of helping. He felt like giving up, but if he gave up now then who would fight for Earth? Nobody would. He stood up and gave another sigh. He needed to continue his search. He needed to find others as quickly as possible, no matter how long it took.

[b]Miarikia[/b]

For Miarikia, this was the perfect world. Here she had a chance to study all the demons she wanted and even use magic to transform into them if she wanted but, so far all she saw was nothing. She had waited for 2000 years and still nothing. Her current demons were much stronger than these measly things. She sighed and sat on a crumbling roof, kicking her legs softly. This was just so boring. There was nobody strong to fight at all. What was the point in having power when there was nothing to use it on? It was just stupid and very boring. She shook her head and shrugged a little. She turned to Flash before looking back to the pitiful world. 

"Did you find anyone worth fighting, Flash?"

Flash shook his head gently as he gave a sigh, he then sat himself down and looked towards the moon for a moment. His tail brushed against the ground and the sighed once more. He agreed with her, this world was boring now, if there was only someone who could help save this world, but, they had be looking for over 2000 years now, and yet, nobody seemed strong enough.

"Not yet Miarikia, but one day we will. We have to Miarikia, we just have to."

She nodded gently and let out a sigh herself. She clicked her fingers and a small fire ball appeared. She stared at her own reflection as it flickered in the air. 

[b]Etna[/b]

Etna hated this world, absolutely hated this world. All the worthless prinnys' were so disrespectful to her. In fact, nobody respected her anymore. She used to be top of the food chain. Respected and feared by all. Now she was just a stupid worthless, pathetic little prinny. If she ever met Zetta again she would make sure he'd pay. For that matter, where the fuck was deadpool? He also needed a lesson. She screamed loudly and punched a wall, making it crumble to the floor. At least she was gaining her strength back at least but she was no where near as strong as she used to be. If she could, she'd change this world back to how it used to be. At least then she could get away from the pathetic demons and clear her mind.....yes, she needed to clear her mind. Damn, the last time she flipped.....well, now she is a fucking prinny. What a joke, a complete and utter joke.

[b]Neno[/b]

Neno sat on his throne, Nene laid down beside him. He stroked Nene softly with his claws, making sure not to cut into him. This world was perfect. It was beautiful, except now there was no more slaves for him. So, it wasn't perfect. His slaves had died and now he had nothing. This world made it so hard to find good slaves nowadays. He sighed softly as he continued to stroke his precious pet. The only real pet he had now. He took a deep breath and shook his head. At some point, he really should get up and end this dreadful thing but, not right now. One more year. Then he will get up.....but, he said that the last 2000 times. Oh well, he needn't bother anyway. Things would sort themselves out.

[b]Sabrina[/b]

Sabrina was in the middle of war. She held her energy draining blade in her hand as demons surrounded her. She stood with a small smirk on her face, watching them as they slowly approached. Then she took out her blade and quickly slashed to her left, she then did a back flip and stabbed a demon in the back, as she did she kicked off him and slashed another demon's head off. This was all done in mere seconds. She smirked again and stood up. She watched as all the demons ran away. She found it quite funny, She took a look at her sword as watched it gleaming with mana. She had collected quite a bit due to this war.

[b]Sapphire[/b]

Sapphire rode on her white tiger, Sabertooth. She took a look around at the Netherearth and gave a sigh. She had fought so much, yet nothing had changed. Her and Sabertooth hadn't the power to stop this themselves. They needed others. They needed others willing to fight but she hadn't seen anyone like that for hundreds of years.....Thousands even. She sighed and looked around slowly. This needed to change but she had no idea how she was going to do it.   

[b]April[/b]

April sat on a large rock with a sigh. Her mask currently down. Ever since this world came to be, her profit had plummeted. She no longer earned jobs and fighting the demons was so boring. She wanted the old world back but that wasn't going to happen. No matter how many she killed, more came in twice the numbers. It was just a pointless battle. Let's face it. Her days as an assassin was over. That, really pissed her off. She would kill the one who did this. She would find him and slaughter him, but, she had been looking for 2000 years now and still, no luck. She sighed again. Suddenly, Stinger flew up to her.

"Hidden Fang, I have returned although, I am afraid there are no targets for us, again."

April nodded softly and got up slowly. She turned to Stinger and sighed. No targets meant no cash, business was as usual, no business at all. She nodded to him silently and looked out with another sigh. Over 2000 years, and yet, still they had found nobody.

[b]Quote[/b]

Quote was in one of the old abandoned towns. He sighed softly, walking around. Of course, this city wasn't completely abandoned. There were still a few people left. He calculated 30. He looked around as he held his guns steady. He had cleared out most of the demons from this place now. He turned his hat so it faced forward and placed his guns away. With a smile of satisfaction, he nodded. That was another town clear of demons but there were still thousands more. He sighed, shaking his head. Nobody could of stopped this from happening. Not alone anyway. Even himself, he tried and he failed. He looked around and nodded to the family hiding in the building. Letting them know it was safe.

[b]Link[/b]

Link had tired himself out from constantly fighting. What was the point in fighting when he was fighting an endless battle? There were billions of demons and only one of him. Four if he used the Four Sword, but still that didn't work. There was still not enough. He shook his head and held up his hand, with that the triforce appeared on the back of his hand. He took a deep breath and stood up. He had to keep on fighting. He would never give up. He pulled out the Master Sword and swung it down with a serious face. His first mission was to find allies. He couldn't do it alone but he knew, that there was somebody out there fighting these demons. He just needed to find them! He had been looking for over 2000 years, but soon, soon a hero would rise.

[b]Que and Quell[/b]

Que, now being part Cyborg had amazing sensory. Sadly, he still didn't have enough to end this dreadful war. His power was limited. No where near as much as his brother. He sighed softly and as he sat next to his father. He knew that Quote struggled keeping the peace here. If Quote couldn't stop the war then how could he? He looked to his father and then looked to the sky. As much as he hated it, right now they needed Quote.

"Father, we need to find Quote. For now, we need him, and I know from me that sounds strange but, as much as I despise him we still need him, for now at least."

Que looked to Quell then gave a soft nod. Yes, he agreed completely but the three alone still wouldn't stand a chance in this war alone. No, he needed to find the heros of this time. There would be others, he was sure of it....or, so he was hoping.

"Que, even if we do find Quote it won't be enough. We need to find more allies. We need to gather all the heroes that are willing to fight to stop this war. If we all worked together then maybe, we might have a chance. Until then, there is no point fighting a losing battle."

Que looked to his father a nodded. Yes, he agreed. He knew that was right. He just needed to find the heroes. He took a  deep breath and the two stood together. Somewhere out there, there would be others, the only question was, where? They had been looking for over 2000 years, and still, nobody. Draco sat there, thinking it over for a moment, and then gave a small smile.

"How about we split, I can easily find Que with my sensory powers, and Que can easily find me. If need be, we can meet up when we need to, but if we are going to find anyone, we need to split."

The two looked to him for a moment, then looked to each over with a soft nod. That was the best plan, well, that was the only plan that they had right now.

[b]Gabriel[/b]

Angel stood on top of a mountain, looking down at the world with a smug look on her face. The time of judging.....It would come soon. She could feel it. She knew the chosen heroes were starting to build up courage once more. Soon they would all find each other and that is when the judging shall begin. She looked up to the sky and suddenly the clouds parted and a beam of light shot down. Slowly, she floated towards the heavens. It was then the clouds covered the sky once more. The light disappearing the darkened world. She had been waiting for 2000 years, she knew the heroes would meet soon enough. When they did, she and Angel would rightly judge.

[b]Lucifer[/b]

Lucifer flew up high above the skies. He watched the world as days passed by. He was a small ruler of the Netherearth but the true ruler hid like a coward he was. He knew that everyone wanted him dead, including himself. Sure, thanks to Mao he had created technology but the Earth didn't deserve a fate like this. Yet it seemed that he was the only one who was fighting this curse. He hadn't found another hero among this ruined Earth. He sighed softly, and looked around. This was just, terrible. He had been looking for over 2000 years now with Blue by his side. He looked to Blue, and he to him. Until Blue spoke up quietly, in a soft hushed tone.

"We have been looking for so long, has Mao disposed of all the strong overlords?"

The two looked to each other once more, not saying a word before looking to the sky. Over 2000 years, is what Blue said was true? Had Mao disposed of everyone who opposed him already? Was this world really doomed? It sure seemed that way.

[b]Rebecca[/b]

Rebecca stood on a building looking down at the world. She stared and watched as the demons roamed. She didn't bother trying to stop them. No, she simply waited. Waited for 2000 years. She knew that alone this world would never change. She needed to wait until others took notice of it. Until others stood up and began to rebel and that time had not come yet. She turned around and jumped off the building. Soon though, soon the time would come. She could sense it. That is when she will join the battle and lend her strength. As she landed and began to slowly walk away, her shadow wavered, she knew that Shadow was lurking, following her as she expected him to do. He had gone crazy from this world, she needed to fix it, repair it so none other would end up like him.

Red Magnus, Killia, Zeroken

The rebel army had been destroyed, all thanks to Mao. Only three remained now. Killia refused to let this go on, he had to fix it, he had to get revenge, and he was willing to release his ultimate power to get it. He looked to Magus and Zeroken as he let out a sigh.

"We have been searching for 2000 years now, and no one is suitable for the Rebel Army."

Red Magus punched his palm with his fist angrily as he screamed. Fire was bursting out of the ground as he clenched his teeth. He was so angry he felt like blowing the entire planet up, but where would that get him?

"We have to keep looking! There has to be somebody who can help us!"

Zeroken shrugged softly, shaking his head. In his opinion, he believed hope was lost over 1900 years ago. There was nobody left alive then, there won't be now. Everyone remaining was, well pathetic and nothing more.

"Let's face it, everyone's whose left is either cowering, evil, working for Mao, or doesn't give a damn about the world. We aren't gonna find anyone useful anymore. C'mon, we been looking for over 2000 years!"

The three looked to each other and let out a sigh, maybe Zeroken was right, honestly Killia was starting to lose hope, and so was Red Magnus at this point. Just who was left to join the Rebel Army?

[b]General Bloodis and Lord Void Dark[/b]

General Bloodis walked slowly to Lord Void Dark's crumbled and destroyed castle. He bowed in front of him and closed his eyes. He didn't look at him, not even once. He was under the complete command of Lord Void Dark.

"Lord Void Dark, there are still no signs of Mao."

Lord Void Dark got up slowly and sighed with a nod. They had been looking for 2000 years, yet there was no sign of him. Where the hell could he be hiding at? It seemed that with so much chaos, it was pretty much impossible to find anyone these days.

"I see. Continue your search. I shall set out myself again soon."

General Bloodis nodded and with that he vanished. Lord Void Dark walked slowly out of his castle shaking his head. Mao hid very well, wherever he was, nobody was going to find him for a good while, and even if they did, it would be insanely difficult to reach him.

[b]Ty[/b]

Ty sat upon Beast as he sighed, he honestly didn't know what to do anymore. Beast and himself had been searching for 2000 years now, and they hadn't found a single ally, this was ridiculous. There had to be someone, surely. Was he just going blind? Beast continued to slowly walk through the crowd of demons, as he did Ty laid on his back whilst still riding Beast, giving a soft yawn as he did. Maybe he'd find somebody, maybe the trick was not to try. Maybe then he would actually come across somebody, or, maybe it was just hopeless.
