prologue -part 3- Every story needs a evil dragon

Inside a shabby inn, Death and Chaos were glaring at each other, neither of them willing to back down. Death his gaze was filled with annoyance while chaos her eyes showed a certain amount of playfulness.

After a few minutes, Chaos raises her voice and said, "Death if I were you I would start feeding energy to his souls so that we can talk with him."

 "And why should I do that? He is your new servant, use your own energy." , replied Death coldly.

Chaos pouted and said, "But I have almost no energy left. If I feed energy to him I will only be able to survive for a year."

 The man grinned and nonchalantly said, "Too bad sis, acting like that only works on War and besides I know you have more than enough power saved up."

 "If you don't use your energy to feed his soul then I'm going to tell it to the others that you took advantage of the situation to bully your cute sister." , replied Chaos.

 "I win this time sister", said Death with a cocksure attitude, " If you tell them that then I will tell them that you lied to them."

 Death looked at the now blank face of his sister and was complimenting himself about how he finally managed to beat Chaos in her own little game when he suddenly saw a big grin creep up on her face. Chaos slowly walked over to him and whispered in his ear, "If you do that then I will tell them about your dirty little secret."

 At the mention of his secret, Death face somehow became even paler than it already was and sweat visibly formed on his forehead. He scraped his throat and said, "I have no idea what you are talking about sister."

 Chaos now hugging him from behind whispered with a sinister smile on her face, "Oh, do you want me to say what your secret is?"

 Death slipped out of Chaos her hug and said in an almost shaking voice, "Chaos if you are trying to intimidate me then you should stop wasting time, I have no deep dark secret."

 "Oh I am not trying to intimate you, brother dearest.", said Chaos, " If I wanted to do that I would have worn different clothes I would have worn that golden cross that goes well with my black dress."

Deaths eyes were darting around the room, looking for a different subject to talk about. After looking around for a bit he saw the kitchen and asked, "Sister do you actually have food inside this inn, I'm getting a bit hungry."

 Chaos just walked towards the kitchen and disappeared for a few minutes. When she came back she was wearing a maid outfit and was carrying a plate with a bit of food on it. Upon seeing her outfit Death almost had a heart attack and nervously asked, "I never thought you to be the type to wear an outfit like that."

 Chaos set the plate in front of Death and said, "Yeah, I normally don't dress like this but I know someone who does and stole, I mean borrowed the outfit from them. Oh, I just remembered that I forgot to bring you something."

 Death audibly gulped before looking at the plate that Chaos had brought over. He saw a steak, a bit of bread and a little bit of salad on it. He grabbed a knife and a fork that Chaos had also brought him and started eating. Half a minute later Chaos walked back into the room holding a small bottle in her hand and asked, "Do you want some dressing on your salad."

 Death just dropped the tableware he was holding and roared, "Fine you win I will use my energy to 'wake' him up. Now give me my maid outfit back!"

 Chaos just smiled and with a snap of her finger, she had changed back into the clothes she was previously wearing and was holding the maid outfit in her hands. She then handed the uniform over to Death and said "You know brother you should visit me again when we have more time. I have so many dresses that I want you to try on. Oh, and I would have never guessed that we would have the same sizes.

 Death massaged his temples and said, "Can we stop talking about that subject."

 "What are you talking about?", asked Chaos innocently.

 "You know what I mean!", snarled Death.

 "Oh, you are talking about the fact that you love to cross-dress?", asked Chaos with a Cheshire smile on her face.

 "Yes.", replied Death

 "What is the magic word?", asked Chaos

 "Please?", replied Death with despair in his voice.

 Chaos just let out a small laugh before asking, "Please who?".

 "My favorite sister and role model can we please stop talking about this?"

 "Sure, because you asked so nicely, am I not the most generous sister ever?", asked Chaos playfully.

 "Yes, you are. I'm so lucky to have been given such an amazing sister.", replied an exhausted looking Death.

 Chaos jumped on the table and theatrically shouted, "Ok, now that I showed you who is in charge around here, I order you to wake my new servant up. Oh and brother no worries I won't tell anyone your little secret. Oh, and if it makes you feel better Order sometimes still wets her bed at night and Light likes to 'ship' all of her male servants with each other."

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

 Death looked at his sister, his expression filled with fear and asked, "How do you know all that?"

 Chaos snapped her fingers and the room was suddenly completely dark. Suddenly two bright red eyes appeared in front of him and he heard Chaos say, "Oh, I know everyone's deepest secret. How did you think I got Shadow and Knowledge to come here today?".

 Death heard Chaos snap her fingers and the room was suddenly illuminated again allowing him to see his sister standing in front of him with the soul of her newest servant in her hands.  She smiled, handed him the soul and said, "Now let's wake the sleeping beauty up."

 Death grabbed the soul and injected his energy into it making the souls start to glow and change shape.  A few minutes later the soul has changed from a red blob of energy into a miniature red human shaped thing without a face or gender. A now panting Death places the soul on the table, walked towards a chair and dropped himself on the chair. Death desperately tried to catch his breath while Chaos walks over towards the soul.

 She puts on a charming smile and whispered, "Hello there can you hear me?"

The soul looks towards Chaos and said in a quiet voice, "What the fuck is going on?"

 Death suddenly bursts out in laughter and shouted, "You have been 'asleep' for eons and the first thing you do is cuss. Oh, this is hilarious."

 Chaos straightens herself and with a big smile said, "You must be very confused at this moments let me explain what is going on. As you might remember you died and because you committed such terrible crimes during your lives you will be sent to what you mortals would call hell to be punished for eternity."

 The soul places his hand on his chin and said, "That's fair I guess. I mean I did some pretty terribly fun things when I was alive. Well, fun for me at least. For my victims, my actions were just plain horrible."

 "Wow, that was boring. I was hoping that you would plead or beg for mercy but I guess such a reaction is to be expected from my newest servant", replied Chaos.

 The soul nodded and replied, "Yeah, to be honest, my reaction was kind of lacking. I mean if I had captured someone and threatened to kill them and that would have been their reaction I would also be kind of disappointed. Can I try again?"

 Chaos simply nodded with an amused grin on her face.

 The soul fell to his knees and begged, "Please don't send me to hell, I will do anything you want."

 Chaos faked an evil laugh and said, "What could a mortal such as yourself offer the great Goddess of Chaos herself?"

 "I could offer you my eternal servitude.", replied the soul, his voice betraying that he was just playing around.

 Death just groaned, "Oh you got to be kidding me there is someone else who is like Chaos?"  

The soul somehow was able to give the impression that he was grinning even without a face and asked, "So, what is the real reason you called me here and where is here?"

 Chaos simply replied, "You are awfully calm about this."

 The soul shrugged and said, "I learned to go with the flow and besides I'm half sure this is all a strange dream that I am having after setting of that nuke, maybe an after-effect of radiation poisoning?"

 Chaos replied, "Oh this is no dream, let me tell you what happened in the last few eons. After you blew up the city two of the gods of this world snagged the souls of the hero party that you killed and had them reincarnate here. Because of them, I am dying and I need your help to fix this. Oh, and by the way, your sister is obviously also one of the heroes."

 "And why would I help you?" , replied the souls.

 "Simple, because our goals align.", said Chaos.

 The soul asked, "Oh, and what would that goal be?"

 Chaos opened her arms wide and with a big smile said, "To show our sisters who the top dog is."

 The souls started thinking and a few moments later said, "I guess I got nothing to lose, but out of curiosity what would happen if I said no?

 "Well", replied Chaos, "I would set your soul free and you would lose all your memories and be reincarnated as a normal baby."

 The soul managed to look surprised and asked, "What no intimidation? Is this not the point where you say something like, 'Otherwise I will torture you soul for eternity'?"

 "Fair point", replied Chaos as she summoned a bit of fire and shouted, "Serve me or suffer eternal torment!"

 "See, way better. Now I can act like I am forced into doing all the horrible things you are going to ask me to do.", said the soul.

 Chaos looked at the soul and curiously asked, "Why do think that I'm going to make you do evil things?" "Simple", said the soul nonchalantly, "You picked me as your servant, of the people on that world who died at that moment, you picked the guy who wiped humanity off the face of the planet."

"Simple", said the soul nonchalantly, "You picked me as your servant, of the people on that world who died at that moment, you picked the guy who wiped humanity off the face of the planet."

"An impressive deduction", replied Chaos, "but you there is one thing that is wrong in what you just said. You did not end humanity in your old world."

The soul just stared at Chaos for a few moments and then said, "What?"

"Yeah, you came close but there was another city of survivors on another continent.", said Chaos.

The human shaped soul fell to his knees and muttered, "All that work and I still failed in the end." Suddenly he shot up and shouted, "If I accept your offer you will naturally give me some power right?"

 "Of course, I would make you a Dracolich.", replied Chaos.

 "Ah what?", asked the soul.

 "A Dracolich, a undead dragon. And with the blessings of the other gods who are helping me, you would become be one of the strongest creatures in that world.", said Chaos.

 "And what do you want me to do if I accept your offer.", inquired the soul.

 "You just need to shake the world up, bring some chaos to them.", replied Chaos.

 The soul looked at Chaos and said, "I accept your offer, I will shake things up in that world in your name." After saying that, he started laughing like madmen and shouted, "Prepare yourself, little heroes you might have foiled my plans last time, but this time will be different. Sister, you have not won our little bet just yet!"

 Seeing that her new servant was having his own evil villain moment she walked towards Death and said, "We are done here can you bind his soul to the corps?"

 "Yes, sighed Death knowing that he will come to regret this decision.

Somewhere inside an underground cavern, a group of kobolds was praying to the corps of a great black and red colored dragon. The largest of the Kobolds, still rather small compared to a human, grabbed a ceremonial axe and beckoned a group of kobolds to him. The group of kobolds walked towards the corpse, dragging two prisoners with them. One of the prisoners, a well build black haired male was only wearing linen pants and the other prisoner, a long haired blond woman was wearing a dark green hunting tunic and matching pants.

The prisoners arrived next to the axe wielding kobold and were then forced onto their knees. The axe wielding kobold raised his weapon in the air, readying himself to decapitate the male when suddenly a red light filled the room. The kobold dropped his axe and quickly started kneeling. When the other kobolds saw this they followed his example. The two prisoners, baffled by the sudden and strange actions stood back and somehow found themselves looking in the glowing red eyes of a dragon.

The dragon let out a demonic laugh and said, “Feels good to have a body again.”
