1 Drinks on me 1/2

<First Recorded prophecy>

When the 7 have control of all corners of the world, the 8th will awaken and rip the 7 apart, the 8th will control the flames of hell and bring pain and reckoning to the 7.

The 8th will be born from the death of a prince of one of the 7, a master in their own right, the bringer of death for the lord.

For the prophecy to run its full course the two sons of the Dragon must die, one killed by the other while the second is killed in the land of the Ox.

The second will rise as the Phoenix and bring glorious fire to all those that dare cross it, its wings will span the earth while its power keeps the races in check.

May the fire of the Phoenix bring redemption to the fallen Earth, may it remind the 7 that they are not the gods they deem themselves to be.

<The Dragon's Lair (Bar)>

"Boss there seems to be a young detective asking about you at the south bar, it is making the bartender there a little uncomfortable." A tall man dressed in a beautiful white suit rose from behind a large dark oak desk that took up most of the space in the room, he pushed his chair back and grabbed his trademark black trench coat and moved out of managers room. His black eyes flashed red and he slowly scanned the busy bar below him, he found the officer easily and slowly made his way towards her.

His elegant movements attracted the attention of everyone he passed, it was if he was gliding gently through the crowd. Asserting his presence and making people move but doing so without so much as glancing at them, it was if he was simply dancing along with them. When he came close enough to the south bar, he clicked his right hand and a bouncer appeared next to him instantly, he whispered to the bouncer "Get the normal Humans out of here, my day of reckoning is about to begin, if any of them see it, they will be consumed by madness or killed by a Reaper. Offer free drinks for tomorrow as compensation."

The Bouncer nodded his head and shouted" I'm sorry to inform the patrons of the bar, that it will be closing effective immediately. The owner of the establishment will offer free drinks to those who have spent money tonight as an apology tomorrow evening starting at 9pm. We apologise for any inconvenience that this has caused you."

As the detective was about to get up from her seat, the man in the trench coat sat next to her and said" You have been looking for me correct? I assume this is to do with the murders that took place this morning in my warehouse? I want it on record that I never wanted any of this to happen, it was fate you see, none of us can avoid what the stars have written out for us."

He then turned to the stunned bartender and said" Mary right? You started today, you can go ahead and leave with everyone else. Don't worry about your wages, you will be payed in full for today and I expect you to be here tomorrow for your shift"

The detective grabbed the mans hands and placed handcuffs on them before saying" Maxwell Castle, you are under arrest for the murder of two unidentified Japanese men found in your warehouse this morning at 7am. Anything you say know will be used as evidence in a court of law."

Max simply laughed at this and said" Alexander, make sure that the normal folk are not able to see what will happen when I leave the building. Keep them safe, I have no idea what will happen when it awakens. Detective I suggest you keep with steeps away from me as soon as I leave that door, the splash damage can ruin a normal person's mind."

A giant brute of a man standing next to the bar nodded his head and said" I will; make sure boss, be sure to make it out of that alive, my people are counting on your continued existence. Speaking of which my sister is looking for work, can you give her an interview?"

Annoyed that she was being ignored by the person she had detained, the detective grabbed Max by his cuffs and threw him out of the bar. Alexander roared in anger and launched himself at her, only to be stopped by the sight in front of him. Max was lying on the floor dead having been shot in the head and the heart simultaneously, as his body lay in its own blood, small sparks of fire could be seen igniting around him.....
