Gundam Wing Fan Fiction / Beyblade Fan Fiction ❯ The Od Riders of the apocolipse ❯ Prologue ( Chapter 1 )

Author note: um, hi, this is my first fic, so I don't really know what I'm doing! This is one of the ideas for a fic I've been working on, so PLEASE tell me what u think!!! Um, I don't know what I'm meant to say, but most of the fics I've read start off with a disclaimer ` I do not own Gundamwing or any of the gundam characters'

There. That's done. Now, on with the fic!

Prologue: In The Beginning

"In the beginning…" That's how most stories about heaven and hell and the creation of everything start like, isn't it?

I mean, that's how it starts in the bible, so therefore every book or story concerning demonic, angelic, mortal and godly matters must start that way, ne*?

Well, I don't know everything. I wasn't there at the dawn of time, nor at the creation of heaven, hell or the `dawn on man'

But I was their when Enma's** reign came to an end. I was there at the original shinigami's death. I was there when the fate of heaven, hell and all mortal plains was decided.

But I'm getting ahead of myself again. You probably don't even know who Enma is, or rather was, let again who shinigami was!

Enma means `the king of hell' (or so I've been told). Shinigami was once mortal. He became the first god of death, renouncing his intended mortal life and name. (My sources tell me that his name was once Solo, but he doesn't really matter!)

I was there when they were defeated, replaced, discarded and forgotten, like so many others to come shall be.

They were the first, you know. The first king and first god of hell and death.

I was there, you know. Not what you were expecting so far was it? Expecting the classic hell hates heaven, heaven vs. hell, demons vs. angels, angels = good-guys, demons = bad, angels win, mortals live happily ever after? (Haven't really told you much yet, have I? I'm getting to it; I'm getting to it! I'll explain soon!)

Well, I'm sorry, but life, death, and inexplicable godly acts can't be put into black and white. Happy endings like those in little mortal storybooks don't happen in real life. Ever heard of Pompeii? The Alliance? Terrorists? The twin towers? Child abuse? You have? So, tell me, where is the happy ending? Where is the all-seeing, all-knowing, loving `God' when the little mortals needed him? When heaven and hell could have used a little intervention?

I'm getting ahead of myself again, getting all emotional. I haven't even introduced myself yet, have I?

The names Ray. Just Ray. Dancer, entertainer, assign, street-fighter slave-servant demon to the six. (I know, I know! I'll explain later!)

Confusing, isn't it? Yes, I'm a demon. Have been as long as I can remember.

Apparently, I've been babbling again. Back to the point.

Um, what was my point again?………..oh, yes!

Them up their would have you believe their happily-ever-after version, where the angels save the universe, show mercy to the poor, foolish demons, and everyone gets a happy ending.

I'm here to put things straight. To tell you what really happened, even though it may not be what you really want to hear.

So, if you want a `and they lived happily ever after' ending, go and rent a Walt Disney movie! If you want to know what really happened, then, well, this is it. What are you waiting for, turn the page!!!

End of prologue

* Ne = yes (apparently, I cant be naffed to look it up!)

** Enma = the king of hell (again, just going by a book)
