Speaker 6: Previously on Battalion thirteen the podcast, Darien's older brother Sean
warned him of future Renegade attacks on the Academy. Darien's
immortality has been activated. Both the Renegades and the Academy
are gearing up for future attacks. Welcome to the Battalion
thirteen the podcast, Episode ten. With a cool blanket of sleep,
his mind wandered to a kind of childish fantasy. He
was in a field, staring over the horizon, mesmerized by
the sun and the way it grasped the edges of
the clouds and turned them into silvery cotton balls with
tufts of gold. The sky was a pretty blue, the
most perfect shade of azure. The grasp was the healthiest
shade of green had ever been, and it extended infinitely
in all directions. He was most stunned by the way
the light fell through the leaves of the tree overhead,
and the way it turned green to gold. Seeing this
made some part of him wish that he had the
midas touch, so he could turn it all to gold.
Then he could admire its beauty at any time and
become enraptured by its golden sheen. Every leaf danced a
lovely waltz in the gentle breeze as it blew in circles.
The leaves turned and swayed over and over to some
silent synchronized one two three rhythm.
Speaker 7: Emerson.
Speaker 6: Someone caught out to him, trying to capture his attention,
a voice that grew louder and louder as it called out,
seeming from the inside of his ear. It was hollow, mushy,
and indistinct at first, but as it pervaded his thoughts,
it became clearer and louder.
Speaker 7: Emerson Emerson, Emerson.
Speaker 6: Emerson shook his head a bit and looked towards the voice.
It was James sunnight falling across his short midnight hair,
dotting the inky blackness with hughes like stars in the
night sky.
Speaker 8: Huh, what does this, James? What are you doing here?
Speaker 6: James? Shouldn't have been there?
Speaker 7: How was little when you dragged here by? You? You
wanted to hang out to get to know me more
or something like that. You said. Either way, you got
hypnotized by landscape? Is it really that pretty? To double check?
Emerson almost became mesmerized once more, looking back at the horizon.
You're doing it again. I would have thought you'd be
hypnotized by me. I am not.
Speaker 8: Why would I be hypnotized by you?
Speaker 7: You usually are. You always think so highly of me
and are always watching me. Don't think I don't notice.
Speaker 8: I do not know what you're talking about. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 6: Emerson's face became slightly hot.
Speaker 7: You do realize I'm not color blind, right, I can
see you blushing, even if it is faint.
Speaker 6: Emerson now felt like a flaming tomato, face hot and red.
Speaker 7: Now it's worse cute.
Speaker 8: I'm not cute. Only girls get to call me that. Fine, fine, whatever,
It's just adorable to see the big bad leader become embarrassed.
James smiled as if this was amusing. The scenery then changed.
Speaker 6: In a whirl of gray mist. They were in a museum,
white walls surrounding them, and color only coming from paintings
and portraits lining each wall. Statues were in the empty corridors,
illuminated by a natural light. Cascading in from the ceiling.
Speaker 7: Ribbons. Quite the dark artist. His work is giving me chills.
It's well done, but wow. James stood next to him.
The piece they were looking at was an image of
two women with cherubs at their feet, trying to stop
a quintessential soldier striding off to war with an already
blooded sword and trampling on a book with horrified women
and children and the corpses of men before him. The
lighting in the portrait was dark, the only brightness being
the pale, uncovered flesh of the women and the blood
red cloak of the soldier. The image itself felt tense.
Emerson felt a bit entranced by the portrait in a dark,
twisted sense.
Speaker 8: Consequences of wool. How beautiful.
Speaker 7: Isn't it called the Horrors of War?
Speaker 8: It'd be fu one of my time. But yes, steals true, master,
look beautiful, I think so too.
Speaker 6: Emerson broke his trance and looked at James, smiling. However,
James was looking directly at him. Why do you insist
on calling me beautiful?
Speaker 8: I am not?
Speaker 7: Really? Then you're gorgeous? I not gorgeous, you are?
Speaker 6: Emerson suddenly cut his speech short. He wanted to call
him any kind of curse word under the sun, but
he was torn between that and wanted to throw the
word beautiful back at him, but he couldn't.
Speaker 8: He wasn't James, really stop this now, it's no funny.
Speaker 7: I'm not meaning to be funny.
Speaker 6: James's face was confused, but Emerson was even more perplexed.
The scene changed again. This time Emerson was back in
his home in Russia. His father's manner had a grand ballroom,
chairs atop of balcony at the back, with a dance
floor extending beyond to the large grand double doors at
the entrance. Today it was full of people dancing around
in pairs, servants gracefully avoiding them while carrying platters of
greasy duck. Emerson sat in a small throne to the
right of his father's chair, and his mother was supposed
to sit to the left of his father tonight, though
their sheets were empty, as they were probably off having
fun somewhere else. Emerson wanted to go down and dance
with a girl, but he didn't see a single one
by themselves tonight. He felt slightly disappointed that he couldn't
join the fray and have fun tonight, so he sat
slightly MOPy in his chair. Someone approached him from his right.
Speaker 7: May I dance with you, Lady Emerson.
Speaker 6: Emerson's face flattened with annoyance as this invader continued to
invade every aspect of his.

Speaker 8: Frame No, James, I am not a lady.
Speaker 7: Then why are you wearing that?
Speaker 6: This made Emerson curious. He looked down to find he
was attired in a purple skirt and silk tunic layered
over each other, each garment patterned with silver. The sleeves
were baggy and ten times the size of his arm,
which made him feel as if he were wearing kites
on his arms and might take flight in a strong wind.
Emerson put his head in his hands.
Speaker 7: Why why aren't dreams like this? I don't know, but
it's rude to turn down a man. Come, let us confort.
Speaker 6: James grabbed one of Emerson's hands and pulled him on
to his feet. He dragged him down the stairs to
the dance floor. James was dressed in the clothes of
Emerson's time, a long tunic laced with gold trim layering
over a pair of white trousers neatly pressed into a
pair of blue boots. His robe came around his arms
like a jacket and fell to the floor, and was
blue to match the boots. Emerson felt nostalgic seeing the
clothes of his people, but felt rather uncomfortable having James
appear in his dreams. They joined the crowd below, which
felt oddly familiar to Emerson, like he knew James was
plotting something perverse, like Emerson would. The energy of the room, however,
caused him to forget it and try to enjoy himself.
Emerson lost himself in the atmosphere and the pleasure it
brought to him. Emotionally, he danced, and at some point
he smiled and laughed with James, as if he were
enjoying his company. He forgot himself and started having fun. Somehow,
the scene changed again without Emerson noticing. He suddenly recognized
the room he was in. He knew it by heart.
It was his old stomping ground, his bedroom. The room
was lined with fabrics the color of red wine, deep
velvety purples, fallen to the floor like it was being
poured into a glass. Long regal azure and navy fabrics
decorated his ceilings in the floor, while red crimsons and
scarlet draped his bed and wove through the other fabrics.
Any etchings from the ceiling in the fireplace and the
bed where not covered by cloth, were carved in silvers, golds,
and ivories, and laced with precious gems of ruby and sapphire,
dazzling in the firelight. He was sitting on his bed
and James entered the room. As Emerson realized why he
felt this was a familiar scene. This was how he
treated his female toys when he was younger.
Speaker 8: What the hell is this?
Speaker 7: Um? I asked you to come here, and you did.
You're usually more perceptive than that, Emerson. I thought you
would have understood. Why no, is this my comeuppance. How
universe you got me fooled, old Emerson? Very funny? Now
can I wake?
Speaker 6: Emerson looked at the ceiling, hoping some higher power would
save him now. Unfortunately it didn't work.
Speaker 7: What are you talking about?
Speaker 6: James sat next to Emerson on the bed and wrapped
his arm around him. Emerson looked at James, not understanding
why this couldn't end.
Speaker 8: Sooner nothing, wondering to Selifan.
Speaker 6: Feeling hateful, Emerson looked down at his hands in his lap.
James held him closer as if to comfort him.
Speaker 7: It's okay, No, he is not.
Speaker 6: Emerson threw James off of him and stood in a huff.
Speaker 8: This is dream. He's supposed to be fielded in my fantasies,
not a curse on past? How dare it to be?
Speaker 6: Okay?
Speaker 8: I am not each not real? None is real.
Speaker 6: Emerson lowered himself into a corner of the room. He
didn't understand what was happening, but he wouldn't let it
continue like this. Emerson was then pulled to his feet
by James and held closely. Emerson, lost and confused, stood
in his arms and shook fearfully. He was afraid, but
of what this nightmare, this James, the sparks he felt
when James touched him, perhaps even himself. James raised Emerson's
face to his own with subtle movements of his hand.
Soon they were kissing for a moment. Emerson let himself
enjoy the sensation, to just be in the moment with him.
James seemed to put him at ease, despite how anxious
he'd been feeling. He remember when James managed to beat
him his first day joining the Vampires. He felt surprised,
astonished that someone so young could defeat someone's experience as him,
he was better than everyone in every way. He suspected
that perhaps he began feeling something for James in that
moment of defeat. However, he couldn't accept this his reality.
He couldn't. Part of Emerson wanted this moment to last forever,
but every other part of him screamed in defiance. Emerson
shoved James away, and then the dream ended. Emerson's eyes
shot open and he sat up slowly.
Speaker 8: Why what was that? I no, I am not. I
just want beautiful women and drink James. I I not,
I cannot be, I will never be. I am prince,
I am leader, I have not sinned, and I am
not homosexual. Holy Father, able, please forgive me for my crimes.
Speaker 6: Emerson tried to comfort himself. His last statement reminded him
of the first day he was imprisoned by that king,
and he felt even worse. And now how could he
face James in his confusion? He wasn't attracted to James
at all? Was he? Emerson didn't know anymore. But the
dream was haunting him so much that he could not
return to sleep.
Speaker 12: Darien, come on, we're getting ready to.
Speaker 6: Go, almost ready.
Speaker 8: He does know he can replicate whatever he wants at
the academy.
Speaker 13: Now, Darien, he doesn't pack light. It was nice to
be home for a bit, but I miss Cynthia.
Speaker 8: At least you have something to look forward to. I
missed my chance.
Speaker 6: The bags that Max held slipped through his fingers as
he faced into invisibility.
Speaker 7: Max, come back here.
Speaker 13: We are training to finish, have responsibilities.
Speaker 6: Max faced back into salidity. His face appeared more somber
than ever.

Speaker 6: Sam hit the room in pajamas.
Speaker 12: Sam, We're leaving in a few minutes. Aren't you going
to get changed?
Speaker 14: Mom?
Speaker 15: Dad?
Speaker 14: Guys, I've made a hard decision. Matt isn't doing well,
and as his older sister, I feel that I need
to take some time off to help him with the
loss of Maddie. With Darien and Seannette the academy, who
only have Mom and Dad, who will be at work
all day, he needs the extra help in counseling. I
just can't do this to him. He could lose his
mind even further. Dad still has stitches from Matt's claws
extending into his leg. At the funeral, Hume.
Speaker 6: I won't say that I'm not grateful for the help,
but with the threat to the academy, won't they need
you there?
Speaker 14: Unfortunately for them, family comes first.
Speaker 6: Eugene and Andrea embrace Sam, and the rest of the
group followed. Sam. The military assignment is just a job.
If you want Christian United to stay.
Speaker 7: We can no.
Speaker 14: I'll work with Matt for now. Go and help protect
the universe. The UAD will need all of you now
more than ever. Hopefully Jake got to the academy in.
Speaker 7: Time, Emerson, since you're so confident about one of your soldiers.
Speaker 6: Nightmare had gathered his top breast to discuss Step one
and his plan to create a crushing offensive for the Renegades.
Despite how Emerson talked up this particular vampire, Nightmare couldn't
seem to recall his name. James Emerson was disappointed that
Nightmare had already seemed to forget his favorite subordinate's name,
though just at the mention of him, his head felt
a bit flustered.
Speaker 7: Yes, James, how is he coming along now? Out of curiosity?
Speaker 8: Well, he is doing exceptionally. He has great skills and talent.
Speaker 6: Emerson decided to keep it brief, hoping to change the
topic soon.
Speaker 7: How would you feel about having him by your side
as a higher ranking vampire?
Speaker 8: That is great a put from the fact he will
be closer to me. Ah, I can't think was stupid
dream in head.
Speaker 7: I feel we've already renamed him at some point.
Speaker 8: You did, mordid.
Speaker 16: Excuse me, where is this going? I don't see a
point to this nonsense.
Speaker 7: Since I seem to have forgotten, we should make it
more memorable. How about a celebration ceremony that way, I
don't forget again.
Speaker 6: Party?
Speaker 2: Fuck yeah, I haven't been to one in so long.
Speaker 6: Destroyer was enthused with the idea of relaxing and drinking.
Speaker 8: James is worth this much. I think it'd be all right.
Speaker 16: No, we shouldn't waste our time. Every second is precious.
We are getting our shit together right now. We need
to focus on preparations, getting stronger so we can improve
our thrall. We need those materials now.
Speaker 7: And who put you in charge? Dominator? This is important.
Speaker 4: This is like Red beetle One gaining his rank, or
any other leader for that matter, just in a bigger
way than before. It deserves to be recognized. He deserves
to be recognized.
Speaker 16: He'll be like, he's already one of us. What recognition
does he need? He already seems to get a lot
from him.
Speaker 6: She pointed at Emerson.
Speaker 17: Madam, Dominator, I understand you're frustrated, but Nightmare does have
a point. Every individual here is a member of our
team and deserves to be treated special when they achieve
something or accomplish something good.
Speaker 2: Just relax, babe. I know it's not important for you,
but it's nice to let loose every once in a while.
Speaker 16: Fine, whatever, Let's just get this stupid bloodsucker ball over
with them. God, I hate vampires getting special treatment, pampered.
Speaker 6: Just burn them all already.
Speaker 16: What was that, nothing, Nightmare, just muttering lovely things about
your precious pets.
Speaker 6: Nightmare reluctantly let it go. Deciding he shouldn't start a
fight now, he turned to Emerson.
Speaker 7: Emerson, I need you to tell Mordred I have a
special assignment for him. He'll rebirth a new edition for
the vampires.
Speaker 8: Really who.
Speaker 7: A man named Jake Madison. He seems able, bodied, strong willed.
I think he'd make an excellent vampire. He'd also be
great at teaching combat skills to our vampires or any renegade.
Speaker 8: James does not know anyone at academy.
Speaker 7: How will he know?
Speaker 1: It?
Speaker 7: Him long red hair, there's nothing else too distinguishable. However,
if he makes any mistakes, that's more vampires for you.
Speaker 6: Nightmare brought up an image of Jake and the Seeing
Eye table in their war room. Emerson could see that
his appearance would be easily recognizable.
Speaker 8: We'll pass it, don't to him.
Speaker 6: As everyone left a meeting, Emerson felt restless. He wanted
to promote James. He wanted him to do well. James
was his robust, vampire soldier jewel. But he knew this
would bring James even closer to him. And what if
that nightmare came back. He would have to tell James
how he felt, if only to get it out of
his system. Perhaps then he would be able to think
clearly again. Jake Madison and Jed Drake were preparing the
cadets for their final three training assignments. The suns were
shining down and the bugs were bouncing harmlessly off the shield.
It was an unclouded, tranquil day, the perfect day for
their training assignments.
Speaker 2: Well, Jed, I think it's about time we told these
cadets what they're in for.
Speaker 3: I couldn't agree with you more. There will be three tests,
each will measure for the particular skills we're seeking. We've
created teams based on your known skill sets, Jake.
Speaker 2: The following people will be working under the leadership of
Darien Kine.
Speaker 6: Darien was understandable surprise, yet excited when he learned that
he would get to lead a team.
Speaker 2: Ethan Evans, Cynthia Trask, Jesse Barnes, Audit, Jerith and Faros.
The other team will be led by Max Knight. The
following cadets will be under his command for this training mission.
Speaker 6: Max was joyously stupefied that he was chosen as a leader.
He was hesitant, but also.
Speaker 2: Enthusiastic Kristin Kine, Chad Ender, Eric Swanson, Elizabeth Edwards and
John Matthews. You will all be blindfolded and taken to
an island where the competition will be held. All other
cadets will be watching this competition via satellite on the
monitors here at the Akahuak Academy.
Speaker 6: The two teams came forward and were blindfolded and led
to a shuttle that would take them to the island.
What they didn't know was that they were not being
taken to an actual island. They were being taken to
a holographic text draggurate chamber where the competition would commence.
This assured their safety, as nothing in the age tack
was lethal. As soon as they were on board the shuttle,
a harmless gas was released and they all lost consciousness.
The teams were then brought to the h tack and
placed on a holographic shuttle that emulated the experience of
being taken to an island. Once on a holographic island,
they were taken to a room that had twelve beds
in which they were each placed all the while they
were still unconscious. They were still at the ACACHEC Academy,
but in a secret location that was buried underground. Jake
went back to the shield control room to place some
safeguards to prevent another renegade attack. The sun was high
overhead when Maddie and Jake stepped out of the portal
and into the shadows of a modest but well kept house.
Speaker 7: I did it. We're home. I'm home, Mattie.
Speaker 6: Wait. Jake stopped her from rushing the door and nodded
his head towards a group of children kicking a soccer ball.
Maddie glanced at the kids and shrugged.
Speaker 18: So what, it's my house. I'm allowed to go into
my own house, into my own room.
Speaker 6: She closed her eyes and.
Speaker 18: Smiled into my own shower.
Speaker 6: Jake didn't argue. After so long on the run, she
was more than a little ripe, and so was he.
A shower sounded terrific. As they walked up the steps,
Jake kept an eye on the kids and so noticed
when the smallest caught sight of them. Jake smiled and
raised a hand in greeting, but the little boy just stared.
The soccer ball rolled past his unmoving feet, and his
friends complained, but the boy never took his eyes off
of them, no off of Mattie. Jake turned to say something,
but his young friend was already opening the front door
and pushing into the house.
Speaker 2: How did you get in? Did you pick up some
breaking and entering skills from that pet of yours?
Speaker 6: Jake didn't know where Fafnir had gone, but he knew
that he wouldn't be far from Mattie. She smirked as
she kicked off her shoes by the front door.
Speaker 18: Not at all. My family always keeps a spare key
taped to the inside of the screen door. Flower pots, rugs,
and fake rocks are the first places people tend to
look for a hidden key, but no one ever thinks
about the inside of the door they're holding open. My
house my shower. I'm going first. Why don't you see
what's in the fridge.
Speaker 6: Maddie headed up the stairs and Jake took off toward
the kitchen. At the top of the stairs, Mattie stopped.
A cold shiver ran across her back, and an uneasy
feeling of loss and despair probed at her consciousness. She
shook it off and walked to her room. In her
closet were closed that the old Mattie, pre war Mattie
would have woron regularly, all blacks, grays, and dark blues.
But there, shoved into the back of the closet was
a light green T shirt with pastel butterflies on it.
It was like it was hidden there, as though the
owner was ashamed to have ever owned it, but wasn't
quite ready to give it up. Mattie grabbed the shirt,
a pair of jeans, and a well worn flannel, then
rifled through the dresser for the rest of what she needed.
After the shower, she returned to her bedroom.
Speaker 18: Don't worry, there's still plenty of hot water left.
Speaker 6: Jake passed her in the hallway. Mattie stood in front
of a vanity, its mirror covered in pictures of her friends,
her family of dancers and models. There were no pictures
of herself. Her hand brushed a pile of magazines on
the small table, and they slipped the side, revealing a
small book beneath them.
Speaker 18: This isn't my room, is it?
Speaker 6: Jake came up behind her.
Speaker 18: It's not my room, this isn't my house, this isn't
our dimension.
Speaker 6: She looked at the mirror. Her eyes were the only
things she could see.
Speaker 18: This isn't me.
Speaker 6: She's fired a calendar on the wall by the door.
Speaker 18: Can you tell what day it is? What the date is?
Speaker 6: Jake looked at the calendar and shook his head.
Speaker 2: This one's still set to October, and I know we're
beyond that if we go by the one I saw
in the kitchen, though, it's November nineteenth.
Speaker 6: Mmm, what's so funny?
Speaker 18: Not funny, just whatever? It seems. I missed my birthday
by two days. I'm seventeen now, another step away from
the fresh naive Madeline Kane, who cared about school and
her friends and worried about what college she was going
to get into, and not about vampires and dead people
and dragons, or if she was going to another day.
Speaker 6: Jake squeezed her shoulder, but wasn't sure how to respond
to her.
Speaker 2: I went through another closet and snagged some jeans and
a few shirts. There were a lot of black shirts
in there, Mattie smiled.
Speaker 18: That would be Darien. I think he's allergic to colors,
or was allergic.
Speaker 6: She wiped tears from her eyes.
Speaker 18: Sorry, it's just I just we shouldn't be here. This
place is in ours, it's another Mattie's another Cane families,
and I feel.
Speaker 6: She shivered again and closed her eyes.
Speaker 18: I feel unwanted here. Does that make sense to you?
Speaker 2: I feel it. Maybe it's just like you said, this
isn't our to Mension, or maybe it's something else. Either way,
I think it's time to get going.
Speaker 6: He hugged her and pretended not to notice her tears.
He stepped back, and they started down the stairs to
leave the house.
Speaker 2: Next stop the Acastric Academy. Oh hey, I found a.

Speaker 2: Tuffle bag and stuffed it with a jar of peanut butter,
of ox crackers, and a few bottles of water that
were in the refrigerator. I went a few cans of food.
Speaker 6: Maddie looked at Jake and smiled, Beans.
Speaker 2: Beans.
Speaker 6: Jake smiled back upstairs, and magazine shifted again, and Madeline
of Tara One's diary lay uncovered, waiting to be found.
While the cadets were asleep. The first test in the
competition began. Within the dream Escape, Darien found himself in
his boxers and a T shirt, sitting in a classroom.
He looked around and realized that he was back in
high school. Wait a minute, this isn't right. I graduated,
and why in my underwear? I must be dreaming. Suddenly,
without warning, Darien was outside in the pouring rain. The
wind was heavy and the clouds were dark. He looked
at himself and found that he was wearing black jeans
and a black mock turtleneck. He had boots on, but
they weren't military issue. There were black Doc Martins and
they were a little tight. What is this? The fuck
is going on? He looked around and in the distance
he saw Atta. He began to run toward him.
Speaker 3: Darien, this is most troubling. I was just in my
bedroom back home. Then I remembered that we were supposed
to be on a training mission, and I found myself here.
This cannot be real unless we were being teleported to
different places very quickly.
Speaker 6: No, we're in the dreamscape. I just know it. But
this is the first dream in a long time that
I'm not watching some sort of horrific event unfold. I
think this could be the first test.
Speaker 3: Why would we be tested in a dream? It does
not make sense.
Speaker 6: You think that's bad. I just realized that without my translatorship,
I shouldn't understand you.
Speaker 3: Hmm.
Speaker 7: Interesting.
Speaker 6: Indeed, Otta looked at Darien and felt sorrowful. He remembered
that Darien just suffered a huge loss.
Speaker 3: While we were alone, I wanted to express my condolences
about your sister. I too have a sister, and we
are very close. I cannot imagine how my life would
be without her.
Speaker 6: Thanks yeah, we were very close. She was one of
my best friends besides being my sister. The rain subsided
for a few moments, and then Sean was standing in
front of them.
Speaker 7: So you figured it out, Darien, good job. That's only
the first part of this test. Not everyone has figured
it out yet, but we don't have time to wait
for them.
Speaker 6: Suddenly, the other ten cadets appear. Half of them were
utterly confused, but not Chad. Chad was wearing a military
uniform and was carrying in M sixteen. He had a
side arm on his right hip in a holster and
clips for the M sixteen in a pouch on his
left hip. He was fully armed and ready for whatever
came his way.
Speaker 7: For anyone that hasn't figured it out yet, you were
all in the dreamscape. There are many dangers here, but
nothing lethal. The Marine Gade sometimes attack people in their
dreams to gather intel. Today we're going to test your
dream conjuring skills and see if any of you can
bring items out of the dreamscape and into reality.
Speaker 6: Sean looked over at Chad.
Speaker 7: Mister Ander, I want you to teach everyone here how
to conjure weapons. Darien, atda you tour first up, Since
you figured out that it was a dream before anyone
else other than mister Er, of course, Yeah.
Speaker 13: I knew immediately. That's why myself right away, Darian, otta
clear your minds.
Speaker 6: Okay, Yes, Darien pushed all the thoughts he was having
down and did his best to clear his mind. Atta
did the same. Once Chad was satisfied that they had
successfully cleared their minds, he.
Speaker 13: Continued, Okay, now picture in your minds what weapons you
want and welcome into being.
Speaker 6: Darien imagined a gleaming katana along with his sheath. As
he did, the sword of materialized sheathed in his right hand.
Cool Adda imagined a pulse rifle from his homeworld. His
role was further along technologically than Tara one. The riffle
began to materialize, but out of lost focus and the
weapon vanished.
Speaker 3: I seem to be having difficulty maintaining focus with this exercise.
Perhaps someone else wants to give it a try.
Speaker 7: I want to.
Speaker 6: Eric concentrated, and very quickly a P ninety appeared in
his hand.
Speaker 7: Nice.
Speaker 13: Hey, that's the exact starting weapon for the game slided
on game station you play.
Speaker 2: Hell, yeah, that's my favorite game.
Speaker 13: Cool mine too. I conjured them sixteen from later in
the game, you know, when you're facing possible beast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I noticed that, but the M sixteen is a
lot more standard, so I didn't make the connection to
the game. Yeah, I've always been a fan of first
person shooters like that.
Speaker 7: Very good. Now, for the rest of you, conjure your
favorite weapon. It can be something you handled him basic
or from a video game, like what condensed Swanson did.
Speaker 3: I do not understand. Why are all of you able
to conjure something here?
Speaker 6: And I am not.
Speaker 3: As soon as I try, I am able to focus
for a few seconds, but then my focus suddenly shifts
and I have to abort before I conjure something horrific.
I am sorry, guys, this just is not working for me.
Speaker 7: This illustrates another point. Not everyone can conjure items in
their dreams. Some don't have the focus, but that's nothing
to be ashamed of. Well, Atta, I don't think this
training assignment is going to work for you.
Speaker 6: Ata vanished. Where'd he go?
Speaker 7: He's in another dream, disconnected from this one. He will
wake up as soon as we finish his training.
Speaker 6: Everyone finished conjuring their weapons.
Speaker 7: Now I want you to hold on tight to your
new weapons, and wake up.
Speaker 6: Everyone woke up in the same room they thought they were.
We were on a separate island. Darien looked around for Sean,
but he wasn't there with them. He also noticed that
several of his companions were now hoarding weapons that they
had conjured in the dreamscape. Chad was dressed in what
he was wearing before everything started, but he had his
M sixteen. He looked a little perturbed. Chad, what's wrong.
Looks like you were able to bring your new weapon
out of the dreamscape. I couldn't even do that.
Speaker 13: I thought we were going to face something scary in
the dreamscape and it was all ready for it.
Speaker 6: I guess that wasn't the point of the exercise. We
were just tested to see if everyone could pull conjured
items out of the dream I conjured a sword, but
you don't see it now. Guess dream conjuring isn't one
of my abilities, then, what's that? What the fuck actually
did it? Chad smiled and nodded. The others looked around
and found their weapons. It looked like just about everyone
had been able to conjure their weapons or choice and
bring them out of their dreams. Only Elizabeth and Otta
were unable to believe the exercise.
Speaker 2: We have many crinonium blades that I have forged for
you in this heap over here. As you can see,
they are purlescent in color. Once we enchant them to
slay an immortal, they will change to an obsidian color
with an iridescent sheen. During your week long assignment with
the Renegades, your job as spellcasters will be to etch
the following sigils into the blades. Once each blade is upgraded,
quickly pass over it with the lamb's wool cloth provided
and place in the mahogany boxes for storage.
Speaker 6: On a whiteboard behind Destroyer, five sedrals were drawn neatly
in black marker for the spellcasters to follow. The seduls
represented the following man, infinity, magic, death, and forever.
Speaker 2: If you need any assistance whatsoever, just raise your hand
and I can guide you through the sigill incantation at
your station. Thank you once again for your assistance in
our mission of freedom for all demon kind. Happy casting.
Speaker 6: Once the cadets were fully awake, they were taken to
another location on what they thought was an island. This
location was a dark cave in this cave awaited a
very old vampire named London Hollows. He was an instructor
at the Akachek Academy who the cadets had yet to
run into. He was dressed in black jeans and a
black buttoned down shirt. His hair was as black as night,
and his eyes were jade and piercing.
Speaker 19: Hey, codets, I am London Hollows, but my friends call
me Dusk. I'm a vampire, but don't worry. I don't
generate bite humans.
Speaker 15: Yeah, Professor Mahegue told us that there were good vampires precisely.
Speaker 19: I've been a teacher at this academy for over two
hundred years. An help to design this training.
Speaker 12: What are we doing in this dark cave?
Speaker 19: So glad you asked? The purposes of this training is
to see if you can resist vampire throw. I will
be to vampire who attempts to put you under my thraw.
But don't worry, I've never killed anyone under my throw.
Speaker 3: How do we resist vampire thraw? I've heard it's quite difficult.
Speaker 19: That's what I intend to teach you. Everyone line up
so we can get started.
Speaker 6: Look you that's lined up inside the large cave awaiting
the test, London stared at Darry.
Speaker 19: You're deleted your team. I want you to fip off
your teammates and stick your tongue out of him.
Speaker 6: Darien Blinton then proceeded to stick his middle finger up
at his team, and then he stuck his tongue out
with them.
Speaker 19: You see, even your leader is susceptible to this type
of manipulation. Darren, you can stop now. I'll release you
from a throw.
Speaker 6: Darien blinked a few times and then stepped aside for
the next person.
Speaker 19: Kristin Kane, wife of your fearless leader, step forward.
Speaker 6: Kristen stepped forward and raised her shield in her mind.
Luddin stared deeply into her eyes.
Speaker 19: Jump up and down for five seconds.
Speaker 12: Nah, I don't feel like it.
Speaker 7: Hmmm, very interesting.
Speaker 19: You're unaffected by my throat. Your shield abilities must give
you immunity.
Speaker 12: I raised my shield in my mind before I stepped up.
Speaker 19: Yes, that would explain it. Moving on, Pharaohs, please step forward. Now,
you're a different type of being. I wonder if mathreal
will work on you. Please resist it as much as
he can.
Speaker 6: Very step forward and bared his teeth. London looked deep
into his eyes and began.
Speaker 19: I'll make this simple. I want you to run out
of this cave and wait on the beach for your
team to relieve you.
Speaker 6: Ferris ran out of the cave and found the nearest
beach and just stood there waiting for further instruction.
Speaker 19: Interesting, I wasn't sure that would work on a Kasha demon.
Next person, Ethan, please step forward.
Speaker 6: Ethan stepped forward, Go join your friend on the beach.
I do what I want.
Speaker 19: Another that's im into vampire throw Excellent. You will make
a fine addition to Battalion's My friend.
Speaker 6: Ethan stepped back into the line and waited for the
test to be over.
Speaker 19: Max Night, please step forward, Go join your body at
the beach.
Speaker 6: Max immediately walked out of the cave and down to
the beach to join Pharos.
Speaker 19: Interesting that the leaders of your teams are fully susceptible
to mind control. Let's see who's next. How about you,
Jesse Barnes, you have no powers. Let's see how you do.
Speaker 3: Are you picking on me for my lack of abilities?
Because I will have you know I am very intelligent
and this probably won't work.
Speaker 19: Work out this cave and go join your fence at
the beach.
Speaker 3: No, I told you this would not work.
Speaker 6: Very interesting.
Speaker 19: Your resistance is strong, but your intelligence has nothing to
do with this. I since you're already under the control
of another, this is quite disturbing, quite disturban. Indeed, Jesse,
please sit down. I want to try something.
Speaker 3: Okay, but let's just be clear here. I'm choosing to
do this right right, got it.
Speaker 6: Jesse sat down on the ground and London sat beside him.
He looked into Jesse's eyes and probed his mind telepathically.
It took a few minutes, but he found what he
was looking for.
Speaker 19: Yes, you are on control of another. I can't quite
determine whose by whoever it is. You're not from this academy.
I think you may be to reason that the shield
failed and to attack Curd at the dance.

Speaker 6: It was not your fault.
Speaker 19: Someone's got you impossible.
Speaker 3: I remember every day since they got here, and nobody
is controlling me. I would remember that, wouldn't I That
is not clear.
Speaker 19: But until this is undone, you are a danger to
us all. I'm afraid that after these training exercises you'll
need to be deprogrammed so you don't cause more problems
for the rest of us here, acondomy.
Speaker 3: Is there a way to take care of this now?
I don't want to be a problem.
Speaker 19: I have techniques for the programming. They take time, Jesse,
don't worry. As long as you were on this island
to control the party cannot take control of you, not
unless they are here with you. And as I said,
I don't think it's someone from this economy.
Speaker 3: I guess I'll just have to take your word for it.
Speaker 2: Don't worry.
Speaker 19: We'll get this sorted out.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 19: Let's move on, shall we.
Speaker 6: Who's next? Matt had just said good night to his
parents and his sister Sam, but instead of going to
sleep in his own room, he had decided to sleep
in his late sister Maddie's bed. He felt so angry.
The techniques that Sam shared with him to control his
rage felt pointless. Tomorrow, he had plans to meet up
with mister Davidson for a movie at the Dollar Cinema
down the road. That all you read that this outing
might be good for him, especially since they had agreed
on a comedy.
Speaker 15: Show Me Your True Self, Mattie.
Speaker 6: Matt began opening Mattie's desk drawers and found pictures of
her where she had scratched out the face with a
black marker. She had written derogatory terms on them, fatty pig,
failure and will never be thin enough. At this moment,
Matt began looking more feverishly before anything he could find
that Mattie had written bingo. A plain black spiral notebook
containing the scrollings of his sister's handwriting sat on her
vanity next to a pile of magazines. Some of the
entries appeared to be abstract poetry.
Speaker 15: Why would she write a poem about eggs? Maybe she
was really hungry.
Speaker 6: As matt read the entries, he discovered that the closer
he got to the end, the more frantic or handwriting
appeared the entries. On the day of her death appeared
to be the most income.
Speaker 18: November fourth, nineteen ninety five. Lately, I haven't been the
person I was meant to be. I've betrayed you all.
I'm just a shadow of a daughter. Nothing feels real anymore.
Speaker 15: Is it possible that Mattie was going crazy because she
was starving herself?
Speaker 6: What if mister.
Speaker 15: Davidson is wrong and there wasn't anything attacking Mattie.
Speaker 6: Matt spent the rest of the night searching Mattie's room
for clues. Whatever happened to his twin, he was going
to solve it. The Vampire Underground base had been cleared
of its numerous tents to make room for the long
tables and chairs. At a table in the front of
sat Nightmare, I'd Beata one and Emerson, followed by three
empty seats around them. Destroyer was among the crowd, making
merry with the soldiers and enjoying the atmosphere. Dominator was
looking on the shadows, trying not to be seen unless
she absolutely could not avoid it. Along the other tables
were a mix of marinated meats, roastes, vegetables, and vampire sluts,
enough for every renegade and attendance on this occasion, James
was supposed to be at the front table to begin
the ceremony. However, he felt rather afraid. He hid somewhere
away from the celebration, toward the back of the underground,
behind the pile of tents, so he wasn't seen. He
sat on the floor, deep in thought.
Speaker 7: Why I shouldn't do this if I hurt Darien or
Christian or Chat or anyone. I don't want to hurt anyone,
not like them. I'm not like them. I hate this,
I hate myself. I don't want this newfound success or
any success. I don't just hurt people. I'll hurt everyone.
This disease, affliction, curse. Can't give each others, just can't.
Speaker 6: He felt regret in every part of his being. He
felt shame, remorse, but he mostly felt like a traitor
to those he loved because he knew he would have
to hurt them one day. It fed on his spirit
like a parasite, leaving him enough fatality to live, but
not enough to truly support him. Emerson noticed James was
missing from the party, and concern grew in his chest.
Where was he? This was all for him? James Emerson
hoped some one around him, would hear as he stood
and left, since he didn't want Nightmare to think he
was ditching the celebration. Despite the atmosphere, Emerson couldn't becoming
gross in this jovial spirit, and despite how many beautiful
women passed him by, none of them seemed to entice him.
He needed to talk to James. He knew he'd have
to talk about what had been stewing in his brain
in his heart all day. Emerson continued to search until
he found James behind the pile of broken bound tents
crowd up on the floor in an anxious ball of nerves,
James James head snapped up, startled from his thoughts.
Speaker 8: Oh it's time, No, it's not quite, just come to
find you. You're okay?
Speaker 7: Yeah, as fine as I can be, child.
Speaker 6: Emerson sat beside him.
Speaker 8: What crowds scare you? No?
Speaker 7: Usually I'm a party kind of dude, just not tonight.
Speaker 8: If you are a party land of dude, then go
out into freck, have a good time, enjoy yourself. Are
your chicken?
Speaker 7: I'm not chicken?
Speaker 8: Then what cause you fear?
Speaker 7: Just you won't understand if it.
Speaker 8: Can be made, speak or I drag you out myself.
Speaker 7: Fine, I don't want the promotion. I don't want to
have to hurt anyone. I still have people I care
about out there. I what if I hurt them?
Speaker 8: You are right, I do not understand. Then again, it's
hundreds of years since my friends were, my family long dead.
Speaker 4: Then why bother listening to me? Just leave me alone.
Speaker 8: Here is tip James. People you love will die is
fact of life. Whether you cause it or not, it
will happen, cannot be avoided.
Speaker 6: I know that.
Speaker 8: Even if you do not cause their deaths. Someone else
around here right lastly, they will die. Good news. Everyone
who dies in battle comes back here. It's part of package.
They die, fight ends, they come here to become one
of us.
Speaker 7: You see again, So a zombie, My friends, my family
will all become mindless, empty zombies. I'm not sure how
I feel about that. Was that supposed to make me
feel bad?
Speaker 8: It'd attempt Whether I like it or not. You're one
of us. You can spend eternity consting existence or get
used to it. Eternity is a long time to hate itself,
very long time.
Speaker 7: Perhaps I should give it a chance.
Speaker 8: You may make new friends among vampires. Then you have
friend here and everything is good. No one have to die.
You will be fine.
Speaker 7: You're probably right, give shot you never know. Thanks for
trying to give me a pep talk, Emerson.
Speaker 6: James smiled a bit at him. Staring at the floor,
Emerson felt another stirring in his chest, like how he
felt in the dream.
Speaker 8: No problem, Saronic.
Speaker 6: Emerson gave him a light jab in the shoulder. Even
though he caught him a friend, he knew he didn't
actually feel that way, and he felt reminded of why
he came here.
Speaker 8: James, I actually come for a reason other than just
fighting it. So I have bizarre dream lately, and it
just crazy because I know so for a long time,
know who I am, have known always. Suddenly it changes.
Speaker 7: People change all the time. It's totally normal.
Speaker 8: It's not issue aware people change. It's just so.
Speaker 16: Here's where you two are. Lully Gagon.
Speaker 6: Dominator appeared behind the tent pile at them, making Emerson jump.
Speaker 16: You're gonna come down from the ceiling, bloodsucker, or just
make this stupid event even longer. Nightmare wants to get
this show on the road, and you're just holding it up.
Speaker 7: Just a minute, Emerson, what were you.
Speaker 8: Saying it is nothing. We should go. Do not want
to turn up late.
Speaker 6: Emerson rose and ran off back toward the table and
sat down in a fluster, nearly tripping over himself trying
to sit.
Speaker 7: In his.
Speaker 8: I'm much composed of No matter what I cannot, I
do not. I cannot love James. Maybe one day, but
for now I cannot. Would just inhibit him. Our kind
is not yet free, But the one day I think
I know mine so much I.
Speaker 6: Think James and Dominator approached the table, and upon seeing
James Emerson stopped him in front of the table, allowing
Dominator to seat herself. Nightmare quickly sized him up for
a second, almost in disbelief that a scrawny little kid
could be Emerson's strongest, and then called everyone to attention,
turning to them to let his voice carry over them.
Speaker 4: Everyone, today we honor the accomplishments of James Emerson's strongest warriors,
shall become his right hand man.
Speaker 6: Nightmare turned to James, talking to him more personally. He
placed his hand upon his shoulders, which made James a
bit uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: James, you are lucky not only to be one of us,
but to be part of a master race that even
I am not a part of. Feel pride in your being,
in yourself and in your immortality as a vampire. You
will live for eternity, which is why you need rights,
why all demons need rights, and why our cause is
so important. Humans like myself are far more inferior. With
our unlucky short lives. We don't need as much protection
as yourself, for while we spawn more generations, many of
us don't live long enough to see the day our
rights are recognized among our own kind. But you, James,
will live for centuries to see many changes among humanity.
Why should humans with such short lives have such privilege?
This is the cause, James, and why being one of us,
you will help realize this goal. You will help demons
gain their rights as the superior species. For you, for
everyone down here, for every demon in existence. James, I
promote you to the rank of commander under Emerson's orders,
Emerson called out from behind, James.
Speaker 8: I renamed you Modrid, a name befitting my best soldier,
my right hand, and one of their renegates. With this,
you are officially one of us.
Speaker 6: Cheers echo through the crowd. Yet, despite all the positivity
of the ceremony, James still felt someone ease.
Speaker 7: So being a renegade is just about freedom. Don't humans
deserve rights to They're not food, not livestock, They're people
just like us. I guess they're right. Demons do need rights,
and as one of them, I'll need them too. But
even so, I don't want to be one of them.
I didn't ask for this. Thanks a lot, Justin. It's
probably his fault. I leave this, sorry, buddy. I didn't
mean to curse you too, and I never asked for this,
And now I guess I have no choice. I'll join
them for now, but I wish I didn't have to.
I don't like nightmare and Emerson is too ruthless as
a leader. If this is the future, can I just
wake up? Glad? Justin spared this fate Arian, Chad Christian
always be my friends. You guys would accept me, right you?
I hope you would. I'd rather not hurt you, guys.
I hope it never comes to that. Forgive me.
