Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army (remake)


Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army, also known as "Konjiki no Gash!!: Mamono no Kakumei-gun (金色のガッシュ! !:魔物の革命軍)" and "Zatch Bell!: Mamodo Revolution Army" is a Zatch Bell! / Konjiki no Gash (Bell)!! fan fiction that I created. This fan fiction takes place directly after the manga, more specifically after the one-shot Konjiki no Gash!! Gaiden manga. It takes place a whole year after the Demon Battle of the third millennium (200X A.D.) has started. 27 years later, an evil organization called the Demon Revolution Army is formed. This Revolution Army plans on overthrowing the kind King Zatch (Gash) Bell and put Demon World into chaos. Heroes, including Raiden Bell and Rain Bell, who are the (theoretical) sons of King Zatch (Gash) Bell and Queen Patie (Penny) Bell, as well as Zeon Bell (now a good demon) and his Demon World Military, are trying to put a stop to them. Can these heroes stop this revolution army from overthrowing King Zatch (Gash) Bell and prevent chaos from occurring in the Demon World?

This is a remade version of the original Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army fan fiction. The remake's storyline is similar to the original but written differently with some major changes to the story but still flows along with the original storyline. In this fan fiction remake, I will be using Japanese names and Japanese terms instead of their English counterparts.

Chapter 2: Prepare for War! A Revolutionary War!


NOTE: This chapter is a remade version of the second chapter "Rise of the Demon Revolution Army" of the original Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army fan fiction series.

Recap and Intro


Demon King Gash Bell's and his brother Zeon Bell's parents, the former monarchs of Demon World, went away and disappeared. After searching for a whole month, and after losing many scouts searching for them, the mission to find the King's parents was cancelled. Having no whereabouts on the former sovereigns, the King felt very lonely and was driven to despair, especially since he was only with his real parents for a whole month. But he wasn't alone; a young, beautiful girl named Patie, who was highly infatuated with the King for a long time, lost parents of her own, but she helped the poor Demon King to recover his lost spirit, and decided to help the King's work as the King's future queen.

27 years have passed since Demon King Gash Bell's and his brother Zeon Bell's parents disappearance. Two decades and no demon citizen has seen them or knows about their disappearance. The mission to search for them and soldiers that went missing while searching for them have been cancelled a long time ago, to make sure no one else randomly disappears. But there may be one secret organization out in Demon World, an organization that no one knows about, that may have been involved in those disappearances of the former sovereigns and soldiers.

Scene: Around a concealed base among some mountains in Demon World (26 years later)


[Insert random dramatic music]
Somewhere among the mountains in Demon World lies a settlement that has been completely obscured from Demon World, a base filled with sinister demon energy that was suppressed from being sensed by outsiders. Above this cloaked base among the mountains were eight demons, filled with evil in their hearts. They looked down at Demon World from a top of a huge cliff of a mountain. "27 years of being ruled over by a boring, kind king," said by a cloaked demon in black. "We'll make sure he and the rest of Demon World will fear us, when you are ready, my masters. My babies thirst for blood," said by a snake-like demon as her snake hair hissed. "But the air and wind in Demon World does feel nice here. It's too bad we have to relocate our base a lot, to stay hidden," said by a bird-like demon. "I can't wait any longer. When can we burn Demon World to the ground?! Raaawr!," said by an impatient, giant demon in black and red. "This place makes me sick. I always hated the Demon King and this world more than anything," said by a familiar demon in a white and purple cloak. "Alright my fellow Death Generals, now that our personal armies are assembled, we can prepare to commence war, start our 'game' and bring pandemonium back into Demon World," said by a demon in white and black.

wizard-like demon with swords had an idea and said, "Wait master! Before we strike, is it okay that I head out into town to find more recruits with my ability? Even though you wanted eight Death Generals, another wouldn't hurt. I recently learned that the Commander of the Demon World Military used to have a powerful darkness in his heart; the strongest one yet; I felt it." "If it's a powerful one that can serve us as a Death General, then very well," said by the demon in white and black. "Zehehehe! Masters, I recently found a colossal demon that could be very useful to us; a very powerful one, that I would like to experiment on and put it under our control," said by a senile demon with cybernetics. "If it will help us, the Demon Revolution Army [魔物の革命軍, Mamono no Kakumei-gun], plunge Demon World into chaos and take out the king, then I will accept it," said by the demon in white and black. He then granted their permissions, "Death Generals #3 and #7, you have my permission gather more power for us." "Thank you, Master," said by the sword mage-like demon and the senile, human cyborg-like demon in unison. Before they left, the cloaked demon in black said, "And as always..." The sword-mage demon already knew what the cloaked demon was going to say and said, "We know. Demon World must never learn about our ambition and kill all witnesses that suspects us." The white n' black-clothed demon said, "Actually, at this time, it wouldn't matter. We will reveal ourselves soon enough now that we are prepared." The cloaked demon wondered and said to the demon in white and black, "Brother?" The cloak demon then said to Death Generals #3 and #7, "Fine. You two do whatever you want." The sword mage-like demon and the old, cybernetic demon said, "Yes, masters!" and fled away from their base to do their objectives.

Scene: Commander Zeon Bell's Training Grounds outside near Royal Bell Family Palace (afternoon)


[Insert random training theme]
Around the Royal Bell Family Palace, Prince Zeon Bell (age 34), who is now the Commander of Demon World's Military forces, was training his subordinates, more specifically his Ninja Division. At the moment, his ninja subordinates were doing push-ups as their final training segment. "Even as high ranking officers, the commander makes us to do these intense training-gero," said by Byonko (age 34), who is now a Vice Captain of Demon World Military's Ninja Division. "It's been a decade since we joined and you're still complaining Byonko-kun," said by Kyanchome (age 34), who is the Captain of the Ninja Division. Ninja Captain Kyanchome then said, "We may be upper-classes warriors, but we still got to train everyday. You don't want to fall behind now, do you?" "Of course not, Kyanchome-senpai-gero," Ninja Vice Captain Byonko said. One of the ninjas suddenly collapsed while doing push-ups. "Hey, you there?! Stop slacking off!" Commander Zeon yelled at that subordinate and the ninja got back on his arms. "There goes our newest recruit, Captain," Ninja Vice Captain Byonko said. "We used to be like that too when we joined a decade ago. Now look at us, we are Demon World's greatest ninjas," Ninja Captain Kyanchome said. Ninja Vice Captain Byonko stated, "But that's because our ninja crew is terrible-gero."
[/End of random training theme]

In the distance, the sword mage-like demon, known as Death General #3 of the secret Demon Revolution Army, caught attention to Commander Zeon's military training and said to himself, "There he is!" The demon scanned the minds and hearts of all of Zeon's ninja subordinates (who seemed normal) and even Commander Zeon himself, and sensed a powerful darkness hidden away inside the commander's heart. "He may be a good guy, but I can sense that darkness within in; the anger, hatred, and jealousy that's buried in his heart. I must have it," the wizard demon grins evilly. He then said while seeing inside Commander Zeon's heart and mind, "It's ironic that the Commander of Demon World Military, Zeon Bell, used to had a grudge against the Demon King himself and now swears to protect him. But all of that darkness that are archived in his heart is perfect. Masters will be pleased to have that darkness as an extra Death General." The sword wizard made a big sinister smile.

Moments later, "Well done, everyone," Commander Zeon Bell said. "You are all dismissed." While walking away from the training grounds, Ninja Vice Captain Byonko said, "Break time-gero..." "Are you feeling alright, my Vice Captain?" Ninja Captain Kyanchome asked. Vice Captain Byonko said, "I guess." Vice Captain Byonko then sighed and said, "I learned many new spells while training under Zeon-sama for 10 years while you learned none-gero, yet, I'm still under you and none of my new spells can defeat your Shin Poruku. You are one deadly assassin, Kyanchome-senpai-gero." Captain Kyanchome said, "I have once told you this before: More spells doesn't actually make you better; you have to come up with strategies and techniques with the spells you have. My Shin Poruku's Dark Assassination technique is still unbeatable to this day, at least against the non-sensory types. Come up with new tricks and maybe you will beat me one day, and perhaps take my title of Ninja Captain." Vice Captain Byonko sighed and said, "That day may never come-gerororo. You know that my reason for training in this military was to get revenge on Zophise for the horrible things he's done to me and Her Majesty Patie-sama. Yet, Zophise hasn't shown up in decades-gero." Captain Kyanchome replied, "Zophise has always been a coward. If we find him, we will arrest him, not kill him, if possible. Only kill if we have to. His Majesty Gash-sama wants to keep this world peaceful and doesn't like us using violence." Byonko then wondered, "I wonder if Zophise disappeared like the Commander's and King's parents-gero and our former crew." Kyanchome said, "Do not remind me of that occurrence." Byonko said, "Right-gero."

[Insert random character theme song]
After Zeon's ninja subordinates left the training grounds, Commander Zeon stayed behind, laid down on a bench, closed his eyes and said to himself, "Man, these ninjas are just wimps. Might as well take a break before I start training my Knight Division; at least they are not as crappy as my Ninja Division." While Commander Zeon was unaware, Death General #3 made his move and teleported towards Commander Zeon. The Commander opens his eyes and said, "Oy, who are—" Death General #3 swiftly placed his hand across Zeon's chest. Commander Zeon said, "Oy, what are—" Death General #3 said, "Darkness, so much darkness you have hidden inside! I must have it!" Death General #3 pulled out the darkness hidden inside Commander Zeon's heart and turned around. "What did you do? Whoever you are, I will treat this as treason unless if you tell me what you are doing?" Commander Zeon said furiously. The wizard demon turn back facing Zeon with dark energy in his hands, "Hehe! I see that you held so much anger and hatred on the King a long time ago." Zeon said, "What?" Death General #3 said, "This amount of darkness is perfect for the Demon Revolution Army." "Demon Revolu—What are you talking about? Are you responsible for the former monarch's disappearance?!" Commander Zeon asked angrily. Death General #3 ignored him and said with an evil smirk on his face, raised the dark energy in the air, "Heh, I am Death General #3 Zeil of the Demon Revolution Army. We plan on revolting soon enough. But first, rise, Dark Zeon!"

The dark energy then shaped itself into Zeon Bell, but with a black mantle, purple bow garment (instead of blue), black shoulder guards and armguards (instead of platinum that Zeon is currently wearing), and purple cape (instead of blue that Zeon is currently wearing) and the sclera on its eyes were black. "What the—," Commander Zeon said in a shocked face. "Hehehe!" The dark clone of Zeon Bell laughed with an evil smirk. "After all of these years, I'm finally back. Now, I can finally get revenge on Gash Bell and take over as Demon King!," the evil Zeon clone said. "How is this possible?" Commander Zeon asked, shocked. Death General #3 Zeil (age 45) stated, "Like I said before, I'm Death General #3 Zeil of the Demon Revolution Army. I have the power to extract the darkness in demons' hearts and create a dark clone based on the darkness they had. Your heart was filled with a lot of hatred of your brother, the Demon King. And yes, I am a mind reader and can read hearts but I'm also a skilled swordsman." Just right before Zeon could do anything, his evil clone quickly incanted, "Zakeruga!" and shot a powerful beam of dark, purple electricity directly at Commander Zeon from the palm of his right hand. "Wha—" Commander Zeon reacted. The black Zakeruga (glowing purple) deeply wounded the good Zeon and sent him across the training grounds before Commander Zeon could react and counter. Dark Zeon said, "Heh, I expected you to dodge that. What a let down! Anyways, time to kill the King." Death General #3 Zeil said to his Dark Zeon, "I'm sensing a lot of guards coming. We'll deal with the King later. Let's head back to my base and we'll strike later." Dark Zeon was disappointed and said, "Don't order me around! Get in my way and I'll kill you." #3 Zeil said, "Kill me and you'll die along with me. Anyways my masters prefer a good challenge so don't ruin their fun. You're coming back whether you like it or not!" Zeil then touched his Dark Zeon creation and teleported both back to their current, hidden base.

Around at this time, the Knight Division was heading out to the training grounds for their training but they ended up seeing Commander Zeon, injured on the ground with a big wound on his torso. They were surprised. The Black Knight, who is the Captain of the Knight Division and one of Demon World Military's Royal Knights, yelled, "Commander!" His Vice Captain Earth, who recently became a new Royal Knight, was worried. He held up Zeon and said, "Zeon-dono!" Commander Zeon's eyes were opening and was trying to move. Rajin, one of Demon World Military's Royal Knights and former Knight Division Captain, asked the commander, "Zeon-sama, what on earth happened?" Commander Zeon said, "Rajin? Black Knight? Earth? We got trouble." Black Knight wondered, "Trouble?" Earth wondered, "What happened?" The Commander said, "Take me to my brother. Today's training is cancelled." The knights said, "Yes, sir!," and Vice Captain Earth carried the wounded Zeon inside the Palace.


Scene: Inside the Royal Bell Family Palace's Throne Room (afternoon)


[Insert random castle music]
As Knight Vice Captain Earth brought the injured Demon World Military Commander to the Throne Room of the palace, he yelled, "Gash-dono! We got trouble." On the giant throne was Demon King Gash Bell and his beloved wife and queen, Patie Bell. They got up from the throne and King Gash reacted in worrisome as he seen a big hole in the commander's torso, "Zeon-nīsan!" King Gash ran towards his wounded brother. Queen Patie got worried too holding her hands to her face. King Gash asked, "Brother, what happened?" Before Zeon answered, someone came into the Throne Room and asked and reacted, "What's going—AHHHH! Zeon-anata [darling]?!" Queen Patie quickly blocked Zeon from view and replied, "Koruru-hime [Princess]? Go get Dr. Danny or Nurse Tio! Hurry!" Even Zeon has a wife and because Zeon is a Prince of Demon World, Koruru became a Princess of Demon World when she married him and became part of the Bell family. However, Zeon has no plans on ever having children for several reasons and one of the reasons being that he doesn't have a lot of time to spend with family since he's too busy commanding over the Demon World Military forces and another for not wanting children is that having children doesn't suit him. Princess Koruru responded, "Okay!," and ran to get the top medics of Demon World Military's Medic Division. The Medic Division's current leader is Head Doctor Danny, a master-ranked healer who's also very strong and tough, and Dr. Danny's assistant is Head Nurse Tio, a highly-skilled healer and supporter. Commander Zeon said, "Rajin, accompany Koruru. Make sure she doesn't turn in-case if she saw this." Rajin replied, "Yes, Your Highness," and followed the princess. Commander Zeon then said, "Gash-sama...." King Gash was worried and said, "Try not to speak yet. Koruru-chan is going to get help." Commander Zeon said, "I hope my wife doesn't go berserk... seeing me like th—ouch!" King Gash was worried and said, "I told you not to speak." Another reason why Zeon decided to make Koruru his wife and princess is because Koruru often loses self-control upon seeing fights, battles, and gore, and it usually happened during their school years. Princess Koruru is usually kind and hates conflicts and fighting but can't control herself and when she gets involved in fights or sees something gruesome or tragic, as those kind of things can trigger her second split personality, a wild personality that makes Koruru to uncontrollably cast Zeruku and go into a frenzy, slashing everything around her, and it has happened several times during their school years. Zeon decided to marry her and keep her close by to prevent her from entering berserk mode as the kind Koruru Bell could be a threat to everyone around her and they still haven't found a way to destroy or separate Koruru Bell's wild persona after all of these years.

Princess Koruru Bell and the Royal Knight Ex-Captain Rajin came back with Head Doctor Danny and Head Nurse Tio of the Medic Division. "Zeon-sama!" Dr. Danny and Nurse Tio were worried. Princess Koruru hid behind a pillar, trying not to look at her injured husband, but is very worried about him, but trying not to get too worried that it would trigger her wild split personality. Head Nurse Tio said, "Oh my, this wound is quite deep." Head Doctor Danny said, "But we can heal this kind of injury with our Healing Touch ability." Dr. Danny and Nurse Tio put their hands over the wounded commander, creating a green aura around their arms and the commander's body, and healed him completely within a few seconds. Commander Zeon said, "Thanks." Then Princess Koruru came out of hiding and asked in worrisome, "Zeon, darling?! Are you okay?" The commander replied, "I'm fine." He then said to his brother, "Anyways brother..." He told everything that has happened to everyone. After the explanation, Demon King Gash said, "To think that your former self is back as a clone." The healed Commander Zeon said, "I'm sorry. If only if I never had a grudge on you a long time ago, this wouldn't have happened." Knight Captain Black Knight said, "Commander, we'll search for this Zeil character and this Demon Revolution Army you speak. I heard about a criminal named Zeil, who used to pull foolish pranks on our people a long time ago, then suddenly disappeared." Commander Zeon said, "I wonder if he or this Demon Revolution Army group is responsible for those disappearance. Alright. Rajin, Captain Black Knight, and Vice Captain, I'm sending you as well as the rest of our Royal Knights, as we'll as you Head Doctor Danny—" Dr. Danny responded, "Me?" Commander Zeon said, "As well as some of your medics on a mission to search and deal with this revolution army; the medics should provide support when needed." Head Nurse Tio said, "And what about—" Commander Zeon interrupted, "You stay here Tio. We may need you here." Dr. Danny said to Nurse Tio, "Don't worry Tio, we got this." Demon King Gash was worried and said, "Well, now hold up. I don't want violence in Demon World." Queen Patie said, "That's right. We are trying to keep Demon World peaceful, not create war." Princess Koruru was worried too, "Zeon-anata, please." Commander Zeon thought about it and said, "Royal Knights?!" The knights replied, "Yes, sir?" Commander Zeon said, "And while you are at it, if you find anyone that went missing decades ago, report back. Try not to use force against the enemy unless if you have to. If they are unable to be convinced, do what you must do. But because we are all demon, and not all demons agrees to my brother's way of ruling, you may likely have to use force." The others were worried and Commander Zeon said to his brother, "I'm sorry brother but we must do this to protect you and all of Demon World." King Gash and the others decided not to argue and all of the Royal Knights of the Knight Division and some medics of the Medic Division headed out for a mission to search for this Demon Revolution Army, if they can.

Commander Zeon said to his brother, "Do not let your children know about this, especially Raiden. If he knew about this—" Then suddenly, "Too late! We heard everything." Enters the Throne Room is Demon Prince Raiden Bell (age 14), the first son of Demon King Gash Bell and Queen Patie Bell. Raiden Bell is a teenage demon in yellow clothing that has enthusiasm like his father had and has a crazy personality like his mother (he usually is happy but you don't want to make him angry) had but loves to fight and usually gets himself into trouble. He specializes in lightning spells (his electricity, like his father, is gold-colored) and has a hydro-telekinetic ability (水念動, Suinendō, "Hydro-Telekinesis") that allows him to move bodies of water with his mind but Raiden can also telekinetically manipulate water with his lightning spells. Besides that, Raiden also has a unique power within him, created by his father when Raiden was 7 years old. "Well, Speak of the devil..." King Gash said. Commander Zeon facepalmed and said, "Oh, no!" Raiden Bell said in excitement, "A war?! Bring me into it!" Raiden has a fighting spirit. A small boy next to him said, "Raiden-onīsan, please don't." Next to Raiden was his younger brother Rain Bell (age 8), a shy but very kind boy that wears a mantle, one that looked like his father's and uncle's mantle but turquoise-colored. Rain hates fighting (despite looking up to his older brother) but he can use water and lightning spells (his electricity color is also gold) and combine them into hydroelectricity and has the power to create rainstorms and thunderstorms. Commander Zeon yelled, "No, we're not sending you out to war! Stay put!" Raiden awed in disappointment and his mother Patie said, "You already get into enough trouble. We don't want you to cause a bigger one." Raiden said in disappointment, "Fine, mom." Rain said to his older brother, "And I don't want to lose you." Another reason why Commander Zeon Bell doesn't want children of his own: His wild nephew Raiden Bell; Prince Raiden was very wild and full of energy when he was very young that his father and mother were having a hard trying to take care of both Demon World and family. Between ages 4–8, Raiden would bounce everywhere and everyday (he had a lot of stamina), but he has gotten a bit more mature ever since his younger brother Rain was born and Raiden has promised that he would always protect his younger brother no matter what. Raiden then used his youthful energy for fighting.

Scene: Somewhere in the wastelands of Demon World (noon, earlier today)


[Insert random character theme song]
A while ago, just right after Death General #3 Zeil and Death General #7 were sent to gather more power, Death General #7 found a giant colossus demon in a wasteland, inactive. "Zehehehe!" Death General #7 laughed crazily evil. "The infamous, artificial demon Faudo. Zehehehe! You may have been created by a wizard demon but you are mine now! The doctor's in the house! I, Dr. Zulu, seventh Death General of the Demon Revolution Army, will turn you into our Cybernetic Weapon of Mass Destruction. Zeh, heh, heh! My Zulu Bots, it's time to begin! Fix him up!" Death General #7 Zulu is a senile mad demon scientist that has created many robots and inventions and had even turned himself into a cyborg, due to experimental failures that damaged the left side of his limbs and he turned senile from a reversal of an eternal youth experiment he once worked on. His Zulu Construction Bots began modifying the colossal demon Faudo. Hours later after the cybernetic modification was completed, Death General #7 Dr. Zulu said to himself with an evil grin, "And done! Zehehehe! With Faudo enhanced and in our control, we can finally bring chaos back into Demon World. Zehehehe! You shall be renamed Zetta Faudo, Demon Revolution Army's Weapon of Mass Destruction. Zehehehe!" The colossal cybernetic demon then activates and stands up and Death General #7 Zulu said, "Come, my precious Zetta Faudo, let's head back to base! Zehehehehe~~~!"

Scene: Around the Demon Revolution Army's hidden base among the mountains (afternoon to evening)


The Demon Revolution Army's base was still hidden from the public and even Commander Zeon's Royal Knights couldn't find it. But Death General #3 Zeil and his Dark Zeon cloned already returned to their base. Death General #3 Zeil said, "Masters, I have successfully returned with someone that will be useful to us." Dark Zeon yelled in anger, "Darn you! If I could kill you, I would!" The Death General in black and white said, "I see. A dark clone of Demon World Military's Commander Zeon." The Death General cloaked in black said, "Impressive." Death General #3 Zeil then apologized, "Forgive me masters, but I've given information to the original Zeon of the Bell Family." The Death General in black and white said, "It's fine. I did say that I was going to announce Demon World our 'war game' soon enough. It will be tonight. Let's wait for #7 Dr. Zulu to return first." Dark Zeon was impatient and said, "I'll kill you all if you don't tell me what's going on!" The Death General cloaked in black said, "My-my, he sure has a nasty temper. Who knew his dark side was this impatient." The Death General in white and black said, "Very well..."

At least an hour later, Death General #7 Dr. Zulu returned to the Revolution Army's newer base (the revolution army moved their secret base to avoid Demon World Military's Royal Knights from finding them; Zulu was informed). The demon in black and white said, "Ah, your back." The demon cloaked in black said, "So? Did you do it?" Dr. Zulu revealed a small capsule ball and said, "Here it is. I summon thee, Zetta Faudo!" and opened it, summoning the colossal cyber-demon Zetta Faudo." The demon in black and white said, "The legendary Faudo. Nice! You done well Dr. Zulu. While I original planned on us having eight Death Generals, #3 Zeil's Dark Zeon and your Zetta Faudo will make great ninth and tenth Death Generals. Heh, heh! This will be fun!"


Scene: In a Living Room in the Royal Bell Family Palace (evening)


Later that day, Raiden Bell was playing with this younger brother Rain, running around the palace. And suddenly, some expensive objects like vases and glass broke and Prince Rain got upset and scared. And enters their angry mother, the Queen of Demon World, "Raiden, what's going on here?!" Raiden bowed his head and apologize, "Sorry mom!" He looks up and sees the blazing rage in his mother's face, got frightened, and quickly bows his head down and said, "Sorry, sorry! Won't happen again!" His mother slightly calmed down, still very angry, and said, "Every single time, young man! We can't be doing this all the time. Every time when you break something, I have to replace it and we can't be spending money like this. There are poor demons out there that need our fortunate more than us." Raiden apologized again on his legs, "Sorry!," and he thought to himself, but it's still funny seeing that angry look on mom's face. Rain went up to Raiden and said, "Raiden-nīsan." Raiden whispered, "Just go, I'll take the blame." Their angry mother wondered and asked angrily, "What did you say Raiden?!" Raiden got frightened by his mom and Rain stepped back. The boys' aunt, Princess Koruru Bell, came into the room (she heard her co-sister-in-law screaming) and said, "Patie-sama, don't worry about it. I'll fix it up." The boys said, "Koruru-obasan," and Raiden awed in relief and thought to himself, I'm safe! The angry queen finally calmed down and said, "Koruru-chan, you cannot defend my elder son—your nephew—all the time. He needs to be disciplined." Princess Koruru said, "I'll talk to him. You just relax and take a nice bath." Queen Patie sighed and said, "Alright." Queen Patie left the room.

After the queen left the room Princess Koruru asked Raiden, "Raiden-kun, why do you always have to do this? This needs to stop." Raiden apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean—" Rain stood up and said, "Raiden-onīsan, you don't need to apologize. Koruru-obasan, it was me." Raiden said, "Rain, you don't have—" Rain interrupted and continued, "Raiden just defends me, even things like this. I'm sorry." Rain was ashamed. Koruru was surprised but expected it. She then said while crouching down to Rain's height, "I see. I always knew that Raiden-kun has always protected you more than we thought, Rain-chan." She patted Rain's head and Rain blushed, then their aunt said, "But you should tell your mother." Rain got worried, scared, and said, "But wouldn't mom... yell at me?" Aunt Koruru said, "I don't think she will, well, not as much as your brother. Wait until she comes out of the bath, then try to have the courage to confess to her." Rain was still a bit scared to confess to her mother but said to his aunt, "U-uru [okay]." Raiden said, "Don't worry bro, I got your back. I always will." Rain said, "Uru." Like Gash had a habit of saying "unu," while Gash's father—Raiden's and Rain's paternal grandfather—tends to say "umu" a lot, King Gash's second son Rain has a habit of saying his own version, "uru."


Scene: King Bathroom and a Hallway in the Royal Bell Family Palace (evening)

Demon King Gash Bell was staring out in the happy-looking town from the balcony outside his King's bedroom with a sad and nervous look on his face. He sighed as he was worried about the things his brother told about him and those were the only things he was thinking of. His wife enters the balcony from their bedroom. The King turned around and said, "Patie-chan?" The queen said with disgust, "That darn Raiden of ours. He really keeps us busy." King Gash guessed, "Breaking stuff again?" Queen Patie responded, "Yup." Queen Patie noticed that Gash was depressed and asked, "Is something wrong, darling?" King Gash said, "Why must we go to war? I wanted Demon World to be peaceful, not chaotic. Why can't everyone get along with the way I wanted to rule?" Patie held her husband and gently rubbed his head with her right hand and said, "I know, it's sad. I too wanted Demon World to be peaceful, without war. I promised you that a long time ago when you chose me as your future queen. I guess wars are inevitable. We are demons after all. But we'll figure this out." Gash said while closing his eyes, "I know. I wish I had the power to stop all conflicts and I don't have that despite being Demon King. I guess I should have wished for that when I won the Battle to Determine King of Demon King."


After spending some time looking out on the balcony, Gash and Patie returned inside of the palace and when they got into a hallway, Rain went up to his mother and father. His father King Gash said, "Hey Rain, what's up?" Rain was a little bit ashamed to confess to them. "What's wrong dear?" Patie asked. Rain got some courage and confessed, "Mom, dad, I'm sorry." Patie wondered, "Sorry about what?" Rain said with guilt, "I-I accidentally did some bad things. Raiden didn't broke it, I did. I-I'm sorry." Rain started to cry. Gash said, "You did what?" Rain cried and said, "It was an accident. B-but you don't... need to blame my brother... every time, when it was me. Big brother just defends me." Rain cried more. Queen Patie smiled crouched down to his height and said, "Really?" From the corner, Raiden came out and said to their parents in a serious voice, "Mom, dad, I'm sorry for lying to you both. But when I told Rain that I would always protect him ever since he was a born, I meant it. But most of the time, I'm the one that causes trouble and I just take the blame for anything Rain does." Their parents were surprised, but were happy and Queen Patie said to the crying Rain as he patted his head, "Rain-chan, don't cry," and gave her second son a hug and said, "I forgive you." While Queen Patie was hugging her second son, she said to her first son, "And I'm sorry for the way I acted Raiden. I guess you are not as bad as I thought." Raiden said with a smile, "But I'm still pretty bad, but kind." King Gash said, "I see. You are just like me, son, and not just for the high-spirit. And you do have some of your mother in you that makes you to cause trouble." Rain stopped crying and was happy and everyone was too. Then suddenly...


Scene: Around the Capital City of Demon World (evening)

"Attention Demon World!" Sounded like the first Death General in white and black from a far distance. "What was that?" Everyone reacted. Nearly everyone on this half side of Demon World heard that voice (even the Royal Knights that were searching for their base heard them). Everyone that was inside the Royal Bell Family Palace headed outside. All demons in the capital city tried to find the location of the loud, amplified voice and found a pair of two demons with an evil aura emitting from them from a cliff of a mountain nearby the Capital City. A holographic projection created by Death General #7 Dr. Zulu (age 700, but physically a lot older) created holographic images of the first two Death Genera's faces. The demon in black and white (age 200) yelled across Demon World, "Demon King Gash Bell! Ever since you became the Demon King of our world, you have made our world more boring with these new laws, making it less fun for some of us demons that love creating chaos. We will not accept your way of ruling for this millennium and many others agree to me. We are demons, we live for chaos and destruction, not peace. I am co-leader of my own demon organization, Death General #1 Zega of the Demon Revolution Army. You have two options: Surrender your title of Demon King to us—although that wouldn't be fun at all—or come at us at full force!" At a distance Demon King Gash said, "I will never surrender my title to some scoundrels but I will not fight. I'd rather talk it out." Commander Zeon said, "I'm with my brother, but we will use force if we have to!" A holographic image of King Gash's and Commander Zeon's face appeared above them from Death General #7 Dr. Zulu's holographic projector and King Gash's and Commander Zeon's voice was projected over Demon World.

The second Death General, the one cloaked in black (also 200 years old) said, "You have no choice; we don't want peace. Along with my elder twin brother, I am co-leader of our revolution army; I'm Death General #2 Zecross. Demon King Gash Bell and Demon World Military Commander Zeon Bell, I have something interesting you want to hear." Gash and Zeon said, "And what's that?" Death General #2 Zecross continued, "I'm guessing that you are wondering why that you haven't seen your parents, the preceding monarchs of Demon World, all these years." Commander Zeon got angry and said, "You son-of-a—What have you done to them?" Zecross said, "They are dead. I killed them 27 years ago." Demon King Gash and the others were shocked and upset but Raiden Bell and Commander Zeon got really angry and Zeon yelled, "Impossible! There is no way anyone is strong enough to kill our father, the Great Thunder Giant!" Zecross said, "Impossible? No, I have proof. Death General #7 Dr. Zulu!" Dr. Zulu was around them and said, "Yes, master!" Dr. Zulu has a mind-viewing program installed in his holographic projector and is displaying Death General #1 Zega's and #2 Zecross' memories, 27 years ago, a month before they started recruiting Death Generals.

Scene: Holographic flashback 27 years ago


[Choose a variation of Final Fantasy IV's "Suspicion": #1 (SNES), #2 (GBA), #3 (3D remake), #4 (Dissidia 012 FF)]
The former Demon World King discovers the earliest of Zega's and Zecross' hidden bases. His queen asked, "Darling? Are you sure you want to do this." The former king replied, "One day, these guys will strike. Our son wants to keep this world in harmony, which is why we are doing this without telling anyone. They cannot know." The former queen said, "I don't want us to live lying to our children." They reached to the entrance of the Demon Revolution Army's first secret base. Former King Bell said, "I'm sorry. But we must do this." Former Queen Bell said, "As much as I hate lying to our children, alright. But it will give us a bad image." King Bell said, "Thank you." At a distance, Zega said to his brother, "We got some company brother." Zecross said, "The sovereign predecessors. I would like to have fun with them but I won't take any chances; it's too early." Zega said, "So do I. Anyways, do what you have to do, brother." Zecross replied, "Yes, elder brother." Former King Bell said, "This evil energy, I can sense it. My wife, stay close and stay behind." Former Queen Bell said, "Yes, darling." The former sovereigns came across the two evil demon twins and the Former King Bell said, "Zega, Zecross. I have suspected that you two would plot to take over Demon World someday. I, the Great Thunder Giant, won't let you. Zakeruga!" The Former King shot a beam of electricity from his hand at Zecross. Zecross defended with, "Ryūruku!," immaterializing himself into a ghost-like state. The Former Demon King's Zakeruga went straight through Zecross' intangible body, creating a small explosion on the ground, leaving Zecross unharmed. Zecross then materialized himself, becoming solid again, and said, "Sorry, I would love to play with you, but..." Then suddenly, a black phantom-like entity, carrying a black scythe, popped up from the ground and slashed the giant demon. The Death-like figure then disappeared. "Ahh! What's—?" The Former Demon King Bell reacted in pain. "Darling?!" The Former Queen Bell was worried. Zecross said, "Oh, still alive? Most die instantly from my Shidona Reaper [シドナ・リーパ, Shidona Rīpa], but you certainly are a tough one; but that's expected from the ex-king. Doesn't matter, you'll eventually die." The nearly dead former demon sovereign yelled, "Shi... that... forbidden spell...?! Unforgivable...! Darling, get out! Now—Ahhhh!" Those were the former king's last words before dying. Zecross reached his hand out, turning the former king's corpse into spiritual particles that Zecross extracted with his right hand. The Former Queen Bell cried in grieve and yelled, "NOOOOO!," and attempted to escape the first secret base as fast as she could with tears running down her eyes in sorrow and fear. Zecross said, "Oh no, you don't! We leave no witnesses alive. Shidona Reaper!" Zecross summoned another entity of Death (he was already prepared for the first one before the former sovereigns arrived) and it chased after the former demon queen. The Former Queen Bell looked behind as she was escaping, with tears coming down her eyes, and screamed in fear, "Ahhhh!" She too was assassinated but instantly without delay. Zega said to his younger brother Zecross, "You are quite the Shinigami [死神, Death God], brother." Zecross chuckled and said, "Heh! Anyways, we better find a new hiding spot." Zega said, "Agree. But I'll destroy of all evidence first." Zega destroyed the former sovereigns' clothes and anything else they had with "Shiraikeru!," a blast of twilight (light and darkness). And now the holographic flashback cut off from the screen back to Zega's and Zecross' faces.

Scene: Around the Capital City of Demon World (evening)


Current Demon King Gash Bell and the others were worried and Gash started crying in grief along with his wife. Gash got on the ground and said, "So all of this time, our search was for nothing. Aaargh!!!" Raiden Bell was angry and said, "Unforgivable! Killing our grandparents before we were born!" Rain Bell got scared and held his brother's waste. Commander Zeon got angry and said, "That does it! I'm sorry brother, but we are going to go out to war! They must pay with their lives for doing such a horrible crime!" Death General #1 Zega said, "Excellent! We thought that would have changed your minds. We will begin to strike tomorrow night. And by the way, we are not the revolutionary group. There are other revolutionary groups besides us that too hate your kind way of ruling, some with other ambitions than my army. To the Royal Knights who are still trying to find us, don't even bother, otherwise Demon World will be vulnerable against other revolutionary groups, if they were to attack to before us. We are telling you this to make this war more interesting. Hehe! It'll be a World War! Hehe!" The holographic projections disappeared and the Death Generals disappeared from the area.

Commander Zeon said to his depressed brother, "Brother, we will avenge our parents, so stand up. A King should not be bowing." King Gash stood up, disappointed and depressed. His wife Queen Patie gave him a hug and said, "I'm sorry darling." King Gash said, crying into his wife's arms, "Why did this have to happen?" Commander Zeon thought to himself, I cannot believe that cloaked demon, Zecross, possesses one of Demon World's most Unforgivable-Forbidden Spells. Shidona Reaper, a forbidden spell that causes instant death, no matter how strong or 'invincible' the opponent is. And to take our parents' corpses; is that guy a real Shinigami, or an actual necromancer? I wonder what his brother Zega can do. Raiden Bell said to his family, "And I don't care what anyone says. Anyone that messes with the Bell Family, even if I never knew them, will have to deal with me. Zeon-ojisan, I don't care what you say but I'm entering this war too, no matter what." Commander Zeon said, "What?!" Raiden continued, "I want to protect Demon World as much as you and everyone else. And with these new powers father has given me 7 years ago!" Queen Patie, still holding her grieving husband, said to her son, "Raiden!" Princess Koruru said to her elder nephew, "But Raiden?" Commander Zeon decided not to argue and said, "Fine! But only when I say. I don't want you to get yourself killed recklessly." Raiden was excited and said, "Alright!" Rain said to his elder brother, "But Raiden-nīsan, will you be alright?" Raiden said, "Of course! And I will always protect you, no matter what and will always be there for you. Dad, will you be okay?" King Gash got over his depression and said, "I'm not sure. I wish we could have done this without fighting but it looks like we have no choice. As ruler of Demon World, I too will fight to protect this world and bring peace and harmony back." Queen Patie said, "And I will always follow your wishes Gash, my darling."

A revolutionary war has been declared in Demon World and has been accepted by the new demon sovereign. Will our heroic demons win the war and keep the world in harmony, or will it go back into chaos if the new villains win?
