Pain "aaaaarrgh" screams the small demon lieing in the table.
As the pain lessons he stares at his captures in hatred. "Kill you I will,
all of you" He tries with all his might to break the much to tough staps
holding him down only to become exahasted after struggling.
"I'm doing you a favor little debee you'll see" says the crazy eyed wizard
wareing light coalition armor. "No one will be able to use you or your kind
again when I'm through with you " saying this he smiles and turns to mess
with some of his insturmentation which covers the room.
Why does he this to me? Summon me he did, and now instead of me doing his
bidding he has me strapped to table while he causes me pain. Saying it is
for my own good he does.
The wizard through a switch, and again the Lasea screamed in pain. Unlike
before though something seemed to happen . The lasea seemed to be becoming
larger. The larger he became the less he screamed. Untill lieing on the
table was a Lasea almost three times his normal size.
"It worked it worked" screamed the scientist in triomph. "They said I was
mad, But how else do you defeat the enemy. You must understand the enemy.
You must become the enemy. Now they will see I was right in learning magic."
Screaming he spun around in joy.
Looking down at his tremendously larger frame he knew he had been changed
in more ways than just the physical he was also incredably smarter and saw
everything in a new light. It was the light of a greater intellect. He also
realised that the human while obveosly insaine was right. His people were
used and abused, but no more he would see to that.
The human wizard now peared down at him looking questioningly into his eyes.
"You some how look less stupid" mumbled the human under his breath.
"That I am human, and you were right I do thank you for clearing my
vision." replied Ral-Shan to the surprise and the almost delighted look of
the wizard.
The wizard stepped into a protection circle then asked "Do you see how the
magic users treat your kind?"
"Yes, and never again will I let this happen." saying this he saw a smile
spread accross his face.
"How will you stop them?" asked the wizard with a shit eating grin.
"Kill them ALL!!!!" as he screamed all he broke the straps as if they were
paper scaring the wizard to near death.
After regaining his composure the wizard said "Calm thy self little lord".
"We have a lot to learn and not a lot of time.
The next two years were spent learning ( well brainwashing but just a
little ). I learned everything from how to fight to how to manuver entire
armies. I also learned of the way that Deebees persicuted and killed
innocent humans and hated them for it. I also learned not all humans were
good like my creator some like the very evil wizards and mutants needed to
be destroyed. I also learned many skills which after summoning several of my
breathren I began the long and hard task of teaching them. Some things they
could not learn, but I had a fealing in time some of my kind might be able
to learn them.
Try as he might over the next two years he was not able to duplicate the
experiment again much to my dissapointment. Although several of the other
Lasea did change slightly most died and the ones that did change only had
one trait change such as size, strength, Intellagence or like one who gained
the ability to fly via the wings he grew. Some of these I made my generals
or advisors.
I sent them out to find as many of our kind as possible. I also asked the
wizard to summon as many of my kind as possible. I naturally became there
leader some feared me as one might a god. Since the strongest lead in any
tribe and since I was stronger bigger and tougher than then all I naturally
lead all with little to no dispute. After mounths of training them to fight
and inspiring them with speaches. I was asked by the wizard if I'd like to
help the coalition
take a wizard infested town.
The tactic they decided on that day was used successfully many more times.
We crammed about 10,000 Lasea into a large crate then had an unsuspecting
farmer/soldier under the crate was opened and my breathren sprang forth
leaving death and comotion in there wake. At the same time the small yet
well armored and weaponed humans stormed the village killing everthing else.
This was very affective and since no one was left alive it took them a while to
catch on to this tactic.
Me and my breathren were even eventually givin our own barracks and control
center. Soon after this because of my complaining that my people needed
something besides there hands that we were taking great losses in these
attacks. We recieved miniture weapons and soon after even miniture power
armor like the humans. Which after a few mounths thanks to a few of the one
that were changed we were able to copy and started making our selves they
even made a few minor improvements.
Our current mission is to kill all the faries and farie folk and deebees in
the local forest which have been bothering the creator.
Notes While the regular coalition don't know what the creator is doing
exactly. They know he only requires minimul support from them in way of
supplies and a few men now and then, and he gets resultes so they tend to
look over then small claims made by a few war tramma soldiers :-) All they
see is a small base commander that gets results with little or no cost to them.
As for Ral-Shan he is starting to think of himself and his elite as gods,
and like all Lasea all he wants is to kill and torment other beings and as
long as The creator provides that and not to many of his kind are lost in
the battles he will remain relatively loyal.
