Chapter 1: A bond is struck

Tatsumi could feel the cold grasp of a concrete floor press against his body. Realizing he had regained the movement in his body, He raised his head up off the ground and looked around. The room he was in was dimly lit with the only source of light emanating from a pair of candles on a set of pillars that sat parallel from each other near the center of the room.

Through the small light source Tatsumi could make out the room, it was barren the walls and floor made of concrete and the only items in the room was a chair that sat near the center of the room, and a large glass mirror pinned to the back of the room.

"What the- Where am i? Tatsumi scrambled to his feet.

"So you are finally awake tortured one" A cold voice called out of the darkness.

Tatsumi's eyes darted around the room trying to locate the source of the sound, but his eyes could make out nothing but the mere shadows being cast from the candles situated in the center of the room.

"who said that, where are you, show yourself!" Tatsumi's voice echoed around the room. There was a everlasting silence that seemed to mock his words.

"As you wish" The voice spoke in a cold yet soothing tone.

Through the corner of his eye Tatsumi could see something shifting in the shadows, he turned his attention to it and saw a beautiful young lady emerge from the shadows, Her hair was as black as the night, her eyes a deep purple, her body was long and slender with the exception of her sizeable bust. She wore a long black dress that seemed to split off at the waist and fall down around her legs.

"It seems your motor and vocal functions are intact, which means my spell worked as hoped" The girl placed her hands on her hips seemingly impressed with herself.

"Wha- what, what do you mean spell, i was dead and then-"

"And then you weren't" The girl cut him off.

She stepped forward towards Tatsumi and reached her hand out, Tatsumi recoiled slightly be remained still. As the girls had touched his chest a faint red glow began to form, the light slowly morphed and shifted taking the shape of a circular sigil with the symbol of a raven in the center.

"You were a broken soul, who met a fate so cruel, i cast a spell that ripped your soul from its journey to the other world to bring you here" The girl removed her hand from Tatsumi's chest and stepped a few paces back.

He looked down at his body where the Sigil had been and then he moved his eyes back up to look at the mysterious girl.

"What is it you want me for anyway"

A sly smile crept onto the girls face.

"Quite simply i want you to be my underling you will serve me and only me, both in my mission to rid this world of the Angel filth but also to tend to the chores of this house"

"I am gonna have to refuse"

The girls eyes widened for a moment, in a flash she rushed forward closing the distance between her and Tatsumi, she raised her foot in the air and brought it crashing into his chest. The force of the blow sent Tatsumi screening across the floor hitting the concrete wall with a thud.

"Worm, how dare you make remarks to me that make you think you have a choice, you should be grovelling at my feet, i gave you another chance to live and to make something of your worthless life!"

The girls entire demeanor completely changed and her tone was as cold as ice.

"Allow me to simplify this for you, either you serve me wholly, or i will subject you to more pain and misery than you ever thought possible. your soul was implanted into a Doll, which means the body you currently inhabit is not your own its indestructible but you can still be hurt and you will still feel every iota of pain.

Tatsumi clambered to his feet.

"So i either serve you or be subject to a eternity of pain and misery"

Tatsumi tilted his head to look at the ground.

"My choice.... My choice is-"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM

A massive tremor shook the entire room, it was so strong that pieces of concrete were falling from the ceiling. The wooden door to the room swung open with such force it came off its hinges and collapsed to the floor.

Scraping could be heard coming closer and closer....

A huge dragon crawled into the room, the sheer size of this dragon was unbelievable, it dawned white scales and pale white eyes. Atop of the dragon Tatsumi could make out a figure, they wore white armor and a helmet to hide the riders face.

"You will meet you end here Demon" The figure shouted whilst looking at the girl.

"It will not be my end but yours, you filth! I am Yuna Godfrey the Demon Princess of Destruction and i will not tolerate you defiling my home like this"

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Yuna stamped her foot on the concrete floor with such force the ground beneath her shook violently.

"I call to you, most dangerous weapon of destruction SUMMON BLOOD TAKER!"

A large sword with a serrated edge rose out of the ground. Yuna grabbed the handle of this sword and lifted it with ease, her hand gripping tightly on to the blade.

Tatsumi looked over at Yuna, the weapon she had just summoned look menacing, the serrated blade was tinged red, the handle was pitch black and was molded into the shape of a serpent with its jaw wide open.

The knight that sat perched on the large dragon seemed completely unfazed by Yuna's new weapon.

"DIE DEMON"

The knight commanded his dragon to attack, the dragon opened its mouth and released a breath of fire towards Yuna. The flames engulfed the entire area where Yuna was standing.

Tatsumi recoiled from the sheer force of the blaze.

"Yuna"

The flames and smoke slowly cleared, the ground where the attack had struck was scorched and black but Yuna was nowhere to be seen.

A look of confusion shot up on Tatsumi's face, had Yuna been killed, burned to nothing more than ash?

"You know that is no way to treat a lady" Yuna's voice called out.

A small choking sound could be heard emanating from the knight. Tatsumi looked up at the knight to see him being held by Yuna who had one hand around his throat.

"For your persistent rudeness and annoyance i will grant you the only thing you deserve oh brave knight" Yuna mocked the knight as her grip on his neck tightened.

"DEATH"

Yuna opened her mouth, revealing several sharp fangs, her eyes were no longer there deep purple but had changed to a bright red. She sunk her fangs deep into her victims neck with shocking ferocity. Screams of anguish and pain roared out of the knight filling the room, Blood was pouring out of his neck and began spraying over his once white armor that was now turning red as more blood gushed from his wound. Finally Yuna removed her fangs from his neck and with one quick pull of from her hands she yanked the knights head completely off his shoulders. Blood shot up like a fountain covering the surrounding surfaces a bright red, The knights body jerked slightly before falling limp he feel from the Dragons back and hit the floor with a thud.

Yuna wiped the remaining blood from her lips.

"Now all that's left to do is kill your beast"

Yuna threw her Demonic Sword into the air and in a flash she had lept from the dragons back into the air, she caught the sword in her hands and propelled herself in a downwards motion, she sliced straight through the dragons neck with scary precision. The dragon stood still for a moment and then slowly its head slid from its body and landed with a thud on the ground.

The blood from the beast flowed out of its body and into the sword that had slain it. the sword began to glow a bright red before settling down to its usual form. She stabbed the sword into the ground and chanted the word "return" upon hearing the command a large cylindrical pool of blood surrounded the sword engulfing it for a moment before disspearing into the ground.

Yuna strode across the concrete floor, with all the grace and pride of a princess but her cold violet eyes betrayed her outward fragile demeanor. She walked up to Tatsumi who was still reeling from the shock of the events that took place before him.

"You were saying something" Yuna said with a slight smile on her face.

Tatsumi swallowed hard, "I have decided i will become your underlining and help you in your mission, but you must promise me that you will EXPLAIN everything to me and leave nothing out"

Yuna paused for a moment as if complementing the demands of her would be underling, a smile crept up on her face once more, she stepped even loser to him so there faces were almost touching. Tatsumi could not help but notice how beautiful Yuna was from this close up, her beautiful violet eyes gazed longingly into his, he almost mesmerized by her looks. Yuna placed a hand upon his shoulder, "I am glad you accepted my offer, not that you had another choice of course but....." Tatsumi felt insurmountable pressure on his shoulder as if it was being crushed by something heavy, Yuna had tightened her grip on his shoulder her strength was truly other worldly she effortlessly pushed him to his knees with one hand. "Don't ever demand anything of me, you will know what you need to know when you need to know it nothing more nothing less" Tatsumi struggled and strained as he felt as if he should would be crushed into dust any minute, he gave a pained nod in response to Yuna's statement.

Yuna removed her hand from his shoulder.

"Good, now if you have finished making idle demands, we can move on. You asked what was going on and serves my interests for my underling to know, so i will tell you as best i can. I am Yuna Godfrey and this location in which you reside in is my castle. The world in which you have come to be in, is in a war between Angels and Demons and i have been contracted to kill the 10 highest ranking Angels, one of which you just saw"

Tatsumi looked back at the floor and saw the corpses of the dragon and his rider. "So he was a-"

Yuna Interrupted.

"An Angel yes..... A knight in service of heaven" Yuna raised her right hand, A feint red glow emanated from her palm, the light slowly manifested itself and took the shape of a crimson chessboard with several pieces placed on the board.

"The 10 Ranked Angles, 4 knights, 2 Bishops, 2 Rooks, 1 King and 1 Queen These are my targets, they will all fall to me, for it is the price i paid" Her voice was cold as ice.

"Price" Tatsumi hesitatingly asked not wanting to anger Yuna again.

Yuna responded "Indeed, the price for revenge, i made a deal in order to exact revenge against someone who deserved to die, that is all you need to know"

Tatsumi paused for a moment and looked at the ground. "Fine, Ill help you, I may not fully understand your motivations, but i understand your emotions, i know what its like to feel wronged, to feel hate and anger and to want to revenge against ones who have wronged you. He lifted his head up to face Yuna.

A sweet yet sinister smile crept across Yuna's face.

"Then step forward"

Tatsumi obeyed and moved closer.

Yuna's eyes turned from their usual Violet to a crimson red, sharp fangs protruded from her mouth, she brought her right wrist up to her mouth and bit hard into her own flesh, Blood smeared over lips, she reached her hand out and took a hold of Tatsumi firmly pulling him into her, Her lips quickly met his. The feeling of electricity shot through Tatsumi's body he felt a surge of energy rush through him, it was unlike anything he had ever felt before.

Yuna parted the kiss and stepped backwards a few paces.

"W-ww- what was that" Tatsumi asked with a look of pure shock on his face.

"A blood bond, some of my blood now courses through your veins, which means you will be able to utilize some of my powers in due time, can't have you being useless should a battle ensue and i am not here, it would be a waste for you to die after i put so much effort into summoning you here" Yuna stated with an aura of pride surrounding her.

She quickly spun around to face the door leading to the exit. "Now come with me, we have somewhere to be" she began to walk out the room, with Tatsumi following close behind.

"Ummm where are we going Yuna" Tatsumi asked.

Yuna shot a glance in Tatsumi's direction. "I found the location of the Bishop, Maria and i am going to eliminate her"
