Four Thousand Club
Marco raised an eyebrow
"why these ones? are their bodies in good enough condition to be bought back or something?"
after asking this, he took a step back, looking at them, in their souls he could see their physical apperance, they were all chinese and indian, soon to be known as "survivors" of the bomb blasts
he took a deep sigh, he felt the guilt of what happened, all those who died, even though he wasn't directly responsible for the 5-6 billion deaths from the invasion, he was half responsible for the one billion deaths, and being in the spirit world, he felt this guilt as actual weights, leslie would be able to see them, like massive lead bars on his clothes weighing him down, and she wouldnt be able to touch them..
meanwhile int he world of the living, many things were changing, in the smoking ruins of washington D.C all remaining world leaders had been transported in via teleports, and Marco was adressing them, and what was left of humanity with all the cameras.
"people of the world, leaders of the world, my name is Marco Highland, Supreme commander of all legion forces, you know me as "M" the mostly unknown commander, the son of Artemis Highland, who once owned DataDyne, the world's foremost company in technological research in the fields of human modification, energy shielding, robotics, genetic engineering and space flight... and now, i'm here to tell you all something..."
the leaders looked up at him, the people worldwide looked at their again broadcasting televisions and radios, listening to every word, in every language.
"the legion now ammounts for 85% of all the world's military might, for 70% of what remains of the world's economy is already controlled by us, we have destroyed and sealed away saudi arabia's oil fields, australia's great mines are ours, we have taken the government offices of Russia, almost all of western europe, england, canada, america, australia, south africa, japan an what remains of china, which now encompases india, thas right, from now on, the world belongs to te legion, and the legion belongs to me!"
the leaders stood up in uproar, yelling at the half of Marco standing before them, bt he didn't respond, he just turned away.
as he walked away, the legion guards raised their weapons and fired, all that was heard were the gunshots, screaming for 30 seconds then silence...
"so it begins, i've taken the people's right to choose a leader, i'll impose my will on them all"
a legion bodyguard spoke up, he was one of a race called the "Akwir"
"sir, won't that infuriate humans all over this world, making them resist you?"
"yes, they will resist, and we will lose"
"but sir, if that happens..."
"WHEN that happens the world will have someone to point the finger of blame at, a common enemy, humanity won't wipe itself out in a neverending blame-game unless i take responsibility for all of it"
he turned to his bodguards, all of them.
"al of you, of all the races from other worlds bought here, succubi and incubi, Terras, Jaziida, Naga, Wolofo, Akwir, and all others..i want you to take the troops directy under your command, and join the humans fighting the rest of the legion, become their brothers and sisters so they wont wipe you out as well... this world will never be the same, friends, we'll be the fall guys, you go and prepare your troops to "rebel""
the bodyguards were hesitant, but they knew this plan was all that could be done, they had to follow through, they all bowed, said how much of an honour it had been, then they left, to collect their troops and wait untill the time was right.
