Overlord tournament new combatants

     The area looks different, more houses, more roads, less forests, but she recognizes the streets that were there before as she flies hidden high above the ground, the cloak of invisibility hiding her from the eyes of humanity. The old farm house is there, a car pulls up and out steps people she doesn't recognize. She is tempted to fly down and ask them what happened to the older couple that lived there; but she has no way of knowing if they'd even know them; or if this is even the same Earth.

   "For all I know," whispers Overlord Victoria, "when the seven sisters rewrote time a different version of me...rather a mortal named Vicky emerged in this time line. One who maybe wasn't killed sixteen years ago. A laugh, sixteen years, even if this was a carbon copy, the lack of the Dark Council, no Obelisks in orbit, no kaiju, no signs of the Insectoids; anything beyond simple low level monsters and many of the same mortals and their groups says otherwise." *sigh*, "I really should just treat this as a different world, one set in time thousands of years ago. Funny thing, to remember having a mother and father, a brother, cousins; to think copies of them might exist in this timeline and yet; to me that was so many thousands of years ago. Emily is now Mirai reborn as a summoner on a world like something out an anime; and I'm here, playing at becoming this world's new devil. I wander if that idiot Lahk Fhar even remembers Empress Valtek...heh, maybe I should drop this form and show these wannabe Overlords a different sort of battle."

  -Meanwhile in New York city-

      It is an eerie sight, the streets are abandoned, every bridge to Manhatten is barricaded. Those people unlucky enough to be trapped on the island try desperatly to find a way off, as all hell as broken loose it seems. Hideous winged imps climb in and out of buildings stealing various shiny objects, zombies have appeared in the streets for some reason, and various unnatural things crawl in and out of the shadows as a blood red veil has appeared over the city blocking out the sun and descending as a great ovoid dome around the entire island; the police and military barricades just outside the veil. Things resembling dark dwellers but with pointed ears, blood red eyes, and arms that can instantly morph into wings crawl about the city in search of humans and other animals to drain the life blood from.

   Inside a department store a guy and a girl, maybe in their early twenties are looting the place, outside they see armored trucks going by, soldiers in hazmat gear have been patrolling the city, trying to shoot and cart off any supernatural creature they see, but the wave of them appearing from below the streets seems unending. The couple freeze as something moves in the store, a giantess, standing eight feet tall and wearing a long white Victorian dress with black accents, her hair is long and black, moving about behind her like a mixture of black tendrils and dark mist, her head and neck obscured in shadow and her face covered by a white masquerade mask with blue spirals about the eyes and red painted lips. Her large bosom and long thin arms covered in a white cloth, including her long pointed fingers. She turns their way revealing blue orbs of light inside the eyes of the mask instead of any sign of a human face.

   The hear *shhh* behind them followed by a girl's voice saying, "Look away, hide your faces."

   They do so without thinking, hearing a sound like boots on the tile and the front of the store exploding as the being just walks through it. The two of them look around but don't see any sign of who spoke to them, there is just a display covered in old dolls. They decide to book it out of there with what they've grabbed to meet up with their gang heading for the subway to try and get out of manhatten.

  ******

  A group of soldiers in hazmat suits, equiped with strange leaf blower looking packs and large nozzels are slowly making their way through the darkened ruins of an apartment complex,

   "Target sighted," one of them reports signaling the others, "looks like the slime queen put some clothes on, target is now wearing a black dress, all other descriptors fit, wait, hands and forearms also wearing black elbow gloves. Milk white complextion, jet black hair, and black eyes all check. Location, three clicks north of my signal, park between buildings."

   A large team of men find their way surrounding the small grass area with bike parking and a few trees. The figure is standing there holding and examining a blue plus bunny on the table.

  The men charge out and blast with large plumes of green fire from the nozzles, the plush bunny is incinerated in the woman's hand. She clinches her fist and spins so rapidly it kicks up a small tornado blasting the green flames all around. She turns to face them, her hands drop lifelessly to her sides, ashes that were once a toy falling, a weird smile creeps across her jet black lips as a pair of black curly ram horns form from her hair and a massive pair of shadow demon wings erupt from her back.

   "Sooo soft," she whispers in a strange melodious voice, "I sense it, I sensed it, oh small and cuddly thing, I senses it, I sensed it, the touch of innocent love, I sensed it, I sensed it, love lost in your hateful flames."

  She sways back and forth, and sings, "I am Ni Ni Nana Nina, the Darling Devil Doll, watch me dance, hear me sing,  for that will be your alllllll."

   She throws her arms up, tiny black dots fly into the air from her palms, "oh hate filled, oh ugly, so sinful things called man, oh horrid, oh ugly, are your wretched soulllllssss!"

   "Code Black!" comes a shout over the radio from a back up team, "from above!"

   Only some of the men in the vision obscuring hazmat suits manage to flee as black cartoon anvils come falling down crushing them into bloody pancakes.

   "Not the target! Repeat not the target, unknown entity, repeat unknown entity!"

  Nina flies into the air, holding her little black shoe covered white stocking legs together and daintitly stands on a tiny white puffy cloud.

   She sings, "From Heavens Above, to the Hells Below, I am the Doll, the cherished loved.

   I am the Darling Devil Doll, created by the goddess of chaos, ooooh, what lovely eyes, what previous kisses, bestowed upon me by divine inspiration!"

   She flaps her wings and they become black feathered wings with white tips, "I am an Angel, I am a Devil, I sing my song, for her arrival. I'll be the demon, that you all fear, for this reason. Now. Dissappear."

  She flaps her wings and thousands of black and white spiral striped spears cover the ground, men in hazmat suit, even peircing right through armored trucks, nothing save the ground; which they seem designed to stop at intentionally given all else they penetrate without slowing down.

    A man who managed to escaped call it in, "New high level threat, entity, demon, calls its self Nina. It just...slaughtered everyone while singing and dancing, the fuck is this?"

  ******

  An earthquake shakes the bridges going into the city.

  "What the fuck...look at the water?!"

   The sea all around the island of Manhatten is turning black as ink as countless hair like tendrils writhe beneath the surface, creeping up the edge of the red barrier like millions of horrid wet slugs. The blood red barrier turns light green with waves of dark green around the tendrils, discoloring and taking over the barrier, moving about like spilled oil over the surface as the wafts of green flow and merge with one another. A hight pitched woman's laughter fills the air and penetrates the minds of all around. Within the city every person and unnatural creature from the small imps to the shadow quills gathered around one penthouse stop and listen.

  A Japanese woman's voice is heard by all as a single figure appears above the dome, center. Helicopters watch from a safe distance with media onboard. It is a short woman in a white kimono with long black hair wearing a white mask with only a ridge for a nose, a slit for a mouth and two black alien looking eyes with green dots of light inside; despite a human head being visible beyond the edges of the mask. Her arms however are elongated and her fingers long and talon like. The tendrils quickly envelope the red dome which now pulses with green light beneath the tendrils, the entire city for all anyone can tell now under her control.

   Within the city the vampire like Overlord Letheria sneers at the green light overtaking the city and below as dark water rises from the sewers and drains, every creature from below stampeding to the surface up the buildings. Panic from the few human survivors.

   The voice says to all, "People of this Earth, I am the Queen of Souls, Overlord of the Primordial Hell of Dark Waters, the Hell of Drowning and sorrow. It has been centuries for me, but only a few years for you; but I remember it clearly. You humans who call yourselves the protectors of humanity from the supernatural; Paranormal Control Agency, Department of Paranormal Protection. My human avatar was wronged by you, and wronged by the creatures of this world. She was fed to a vampire, her wronged soul and immortal body ravaged those who had sinned against my avatar. But she was captured by you, tortured and studied to learn the secrets of her immortality and psychic powers. Yes, I have returned, I am Akiko Yamamura, and you will know sorrow and dispair, your souls will belong to me once I have bested the other Overlords. See now as I crush this entire city and every Overlord within!"

   "Jesus Christ," utters a member of *The Society* watching on the television.

  However just as earthquaked rock the city the wall of white furry tentacles returns, its beak like mouths snapping at the hair tendrils of the dome, biting off chunks at a time and spitting them away. Spots can be seen on the dome of red burning patches as within Albia is blasting at the tendrils with red beams from her eyes, Letheria firing red electric energy balls from her hands. Dr. Vivicious is summoning beakers of red liquid that explode like napalm  as she throws with her inhuman strength for miles at the dome. Nina and the Doll Collector just look on without concern, Jessie Jester lands beside them. One one of the bridges the military backs away as giant wall of ice appears and shatters through the barrier, from which steps the skeletal giant known as The Winter King.

  There is a sudden flash of blue light blinding everyone. When it parts the military, police, Paranormal Control Agency are all amazed to find the dome is gone, the hair tendrils gone, the giant monster, the demons, all gone. The city however is in bad shape, billions of dollars worth of damage, flooded sewers, basements, collapased buildings, shattered windows, and so on.

  Sil'loe'thra finds herself suddenly in the Meditereneon off the coast of Crete. Doll Collector is now somewhere in the Rocky Mountains by an old shack. Jessie Jester is in an old run down and abandoned amusement park. Nina has appeared in an old radio station somewhere in New Mexico. Albia is now in some drain pipe to some small town in Maine. Acricia is now in a different drainage system somewhere in China. The Winter King is in a forest in northern Canada looking around huffing out clouds of frost in confusion. Dr. Vivicious is in the house that once belonged to her previous life, Tony, which luckily for anyone is empty. Letheria has appeared in the attic where she had overtaken the summoning being done by children before; she can hear them downstairs; she had been quick to abandon bothering with them in light of sensing the approach of an Overlord Tournament. Akiko appears on the roof of a house in the flooded area of Springwood, just standing there. Lahk Fhar and Victoria have not been moved. Lahk Fhar was watching the events from a television beside a vampire mob boss and a member of the Society; while Victoria had been flying around and observed the commotion gathered around some tvs and watched while invisible.

   Back in Manhatten however things have not completly calmed down as the sky spirals with dark clouds, massive black thorn covered tentacles slithering in and out of the clouds As red silent flashes of light illuminate them. From the cloud slowly descends a two hundred foot tall figure, a woman made of black armor, face like a mask with blue spheres in her eyes, hands like claws, and long hair down past her ankles made of blue, green, and red flames; although mostly blood red. She speaks through unmoving lips, as red spheres appear in front of each of the 12 overlords also projecting her voice, surprising a group of people as this forces Victoria into visibility.

   "Twelve Overlords have gathered upon this Earth," she says in a commanding voice, "So now can begin the Overlord Tournament. This contest will decide which of them shall gain sole dominion over the souls of this world's sinners; to be sent to their own netherworlds or another of their creation or rule. This will be a tournament of strength, they will battle one another, any damage that would be destructive will result in the losing party being sent back to their own world and forbidden from returning here while the tournament continues. Leaving this world either by going beyond its sky or to another dimension will result in a forefeit. I have seperated those who were battling prematurely to keep the contest fair. In this contest the use of minions will be allowed, however I the Dark Empress of the Void will determine if the number of minions is excessive or not; you are to battle one another not wage a war. Now begin!"

   With that last thunderous announcement she ascends back into the cloud which vanishes behind her.
