Warrior of Light
Sesa wiped his eyes, suddenly getting very serious. "Whats our stock?" He asks, using his Commander voice.
Uriel was the first to respond with, "Us, our swords, and a suit of armor we... 'Aquired' from the American Marines." as she lists them off on her fingers.
Sesa let out a sigh, then thought of something.
"How can I breath here? Isnt Mars inhospitable?" He asks, looking around the iron-oxide dyed landscape.
Destiny spoke up.
"Destroyer terraformed the planet in order to breed and expand his oxygen-dependant army. He took the noxious gases and turned them into Oxygen. Thats why youre head hasnt exploded yet."
Sesa nodded as he put the armor on, glancing at the helmet and tossing it aside, letting his hair flutter in the wind.
Uriel raised an eyebrow flirtously, wolf-whistling and getting a death stare from Destiny.
"Prophet Sesa, Gabriel, I, and Uriel are at your disposal. Command us, oh Warrior of Light, and we shall obey." Michael states, crossing his arm across his chest and nodding to the other angels.
Sesa nods, then lays out his battle plan, making Uriel and Destiny's heart skip in excitement and adoration.

"Commander Purkins, we're picking up a faint signal on the enemy ocupied planet, sir." The officer states, handing his commander a datacard and standing at attention.
Anthony takes it, reading it.
"What the hell are the Marines doing there? Dont they know thats suicide?" He asks, scrathing his chin.
"Theyre Marines, sir. Theyll do and use just about anything to kick some enemy ass." The officer replies, nodding to the Marine warship that was destroying an enemy vessel despite being sevearly damaged and on the point of destruction itself.
The commander sighed.
"Get me Ghost battalion and tell them to prepare for a suicide mission. We're taking the fight to the enemy."

Sesa cocked his plasma rifle, hiding behind an offline enemy fighter as a patrol jogged by.
"Michael, come in." Sesa whispered into the comm, getting an instant, "Here, Prophet. Are you ready?"
"Affirmitive." He replies, taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly. "Lets teach these bastards who the real warriors are."
Sesa jumped from cover, just in time to shoot 3 enemy soldiers dead, then run to the hangar door and jump in just as it closed.
Michael looked up from the comm unit, then nodded at Gabriel, who in turn nodded and started working on the bomb. Uriel flew the skies, taking down all of the communication beacons as she went. Michael left them to work, sneaking into the cloning chambers and planting the thermonuclear warhead in the direct middle.
"Michael the Archangel. What a surprise." A deep voice said, coming from the darkness.
Michael cringed.
"Lucifer. Tell me: Do you like the Abyss? Cause if you dont leave now, youre going back." He replies, drawing his sword and watching his brother carefully.
Lucifer smiled evily.
"Is this anyway to treat a fellow angel?" He asks, turning his back to show both wings that had been ripped from his back.
"Youre no angel, Lucifer." Michael replies, taking a defensive stance.
Lucifer rolled his eyes. "Tell me about it." He popped his neck, then suddenly got very serious.
"Listen to me, Michael. I came unarmed, and all I want to do is warn you." He said, holding up his hands in all honesty.
Michael snarled. "Why should I believe you?" He asks, making his brother sigh.
"Michael, beware my warning: Destroyer needs to be stopped." He said, making Michael freeze.
Lucifer didnt smile.
"Im not lying this time. He's a threat, and he needs to be killed. He took my wings, Michael. No mortal can do that. He took my damned wings!" He said, showing him the oozing wounds. "I know no mortal can do this. I dont have a fūcking clue what he is, but he's no mortal. Please Michael," he begs, liquid gold coming from his eyes, "Stop this monster at all costs!"

Sesa took in a deep breath, then coughed, putting the helmet on. Thankfully, Destiny convinced him to keep it before she left.
He aimed around the corner, waiting for some fool to pop their head out so he could blow it off. He made his way to the command center, then stopped at the door.
He took a deep breath, steeling himself.
"For Elise." He said, firing sticky bombs at the door and blowing it off of its hinges, running in and ready for a fight.
Ag-Noral was standing alone, waiting for him.
"Hello, Prophet." He said darkly, not turning around as he sharpened his sword. "Ive been expecting you."
Sesa didnt faulter in his aim, keeping the barrel on the General.
"Fūck you." He says, snarling. "Wheres Destroyer?"
"Master has went home. He lost interest in Earth. But I? I have great interest in bringing him your head." Noral replies, turning around and facing the young warrior, clanging his sword against his shield.
Sesa squinted his eyes.
Something wasnt right...
"And your beloved Elise shall join you." He adds, walking down the grand stairs, smiling to himself.
Sesa tensed.
"Like hell she will! Prepare to die, bastard!" Sesa screamed, charging him as he drew his own sword.
Noral opened his arms wide, then said, "If you wish to die, then I shall comply!"
Their swords clanged, and the sound reverbrated across the all but abandoned base.
