Chapter Text
Slaming a soldier into the ground, hearing his bone break as his body hits the ground, "i tought i taught you better, Nathaniel" the dictator glares through their mask, as the nurses come to his aid as he groans in pain, 'tch, so pathetic' the Dictator started walking out of the training room but was stopped by Nathaniel's voice "at least watch your strength. No one compares to you so at least be gentle" he waa able to shock out "then get stronger" they scoff leaving the room, the dictator heads to their office where they continue to check files some files. After a few hours they went to the execution area where they executed everyone who deemed guilty when the dictators soldiers brought a woman who was holding a child, their eyes soften but they shook the feeling away "why is there a child here." They said coldly "the kid was helping the woman" the soldier exclaims "with what" robbing some of our resources" he yells "just kill them their usele-" before the soldier could finish a bullet went through his head causing the man to fall to the ground "i have made it clear for all of you, Kids...are...speared" they bark out, they sigh and kneel down "tell me your life woman" they said with no emotion, the woman sobs as she says "I was kicked out of my husbands house because I was a traitor, and useless" she cries, the leader looks at the kid "what's your name" the little kid puffs his chest "Noah, and i vow that I will protect my mom!" He exclaims as the soldiers around start laughing, "silence. " The leader screamed, shutting everyone up. "I like your spirit little one" they stand up "spare these two and give them a suitable place for them to stay in the meantime" the woman looks up "thank you, thank you" she bows down on the ground "but dont believe you will be doing anything. You will be given a job that suits you best" they glare at the woman "whatever you need" they smile behind their mask "and I'd like to train your son" the woman looks up at them in shock "but" they put a hand up "i assure you i will not pur your son in the front lines, he will work along side me" they said with no emotion, the woman frowns "Yes Iron lord" the leader scoffs and the soldiers take them away. They call a soldier to them, "i want you to do some check ups on the mom... she looks sick. " The soldier nods.
The rain was light, falling in quick, soft drops that made a faint tapping sound as they hit the ground. They hummed and checked their watch 'time to see.' The leader started walking to the palace, and when they entered, they started walking down some stairs to the lab, opening some metal door. "Doctor." The doctor was writing something on what seemed like a book "doctor." The leader called out again, "doctor Francis, " the leader growled. The doctor jumped slightly."Hm? Oh, hello JJ, what brings you here?" Francis asked them "i came to pick up the viles" they point at the the viles sitting kn the table "they arent done yet" he says standing up "take of that mask will ya JJ" he looks over at them "stop calling me that. And no" he just sighs "the viles will be done in 3 days "gives me enough time" they sigh "Allright do that ill be back in 3 days" "it will give you more time for what" they look over their shoulders "to train a new recruit" they say leaving, they walked down the many halls of the palace to then reach a room when they opened the room a book was thrown at them but they catch it "nice thrown-" they get hit in the stomach, and they laugh closing the door behind them "Noah was it?" Yhe kid scoffs."You have pretty strong punches, eh?"Where's my mom!" He demands "how old are you" he glares at them "im 8 years old" he says with confidence "your lucky you didnt meet my partner" they chuckle "he us horrible with kids" they say with a bit of playfulness "why dont we train hm?" The kid beams "train? Like in fitting, " they nod,"it can finally protect mom correctly. " The kid smiles as the dictator walks him through the castle "whats your favorite color?" Noah looks up at the dictator "red. " "What can i call you?" They shrug "whatever" he hums."Foxie!" He giggles, they just hum."What do you want to learn first?" The kid thinks "swords" "Allright then" they enter a sparing room "go ahead and grab that woden sword" the kid went to grab the woden sword "Allright, lets get started" a few hours later Noah was getting tires "Foxie im tired" the leader hums "you did pretty good for a kid that is 8" they chuckle "i wanna see mom" the leader frowns "Allright" after a while walking they enter the nurse room "is mom okay" they look down at them "she is sick so make sure to tell her everything now okay" "okay!" Noah approaches his mom that was in the bed, Nathaniel approaches the leader "hope you didnt break that kids bone" he says laughing "dont worry i made sure to be gentle with the little one, how are you holding up?" He chuckles but wheezes "great...just great" they laugh at him, but was cut short by a soldier coming towards them "sir, she just woke up" the dictator glances at Nathaniel "watch over the kid ill be back" they start walking down the corridors opening a door to another room, there was a lot of yelling and it irritated you, you froze 'what..?' "HSUT UP" you? They say everyone in the room goes silent, the nurses tensing, "Everyone leave. Now" you growl, everyone leaves, leaving them alone with jill who is just sitting on the bed "go fuck yourself" they just stay quiet looking at jill "gonna say something or not asshole" "shut up will you, your so fucking annoying. Be grateful i didn't kill you, " you snarl 'its happening again. What the hell is wrong with you Irons put it all together' Jill just stays quiet "how long was i out" she ask "3 days" she eyes the dictator, but the dictator isnt focused at her they are looking at some flowers placed one the table "those are everywhere, I wonder why" they mumbles under their breath "arent you uncharged of this place" they shrug, there was something off Instead of feeling anger jill felt calm, she could place her finger why "arent, lily of the valley lovely?"they ask her "yes they are...something" Jill looks confused at them "they always said the dictator was this big bad person but here you are looking like a lost puppy" Jill smirks scoffing, the dictator glares at jill "how are your wounds." She just stays quiet "what where those things that attacked me? " they sigh."They are called tyrant... aren't they beautiful" they sound proud of themselves "we can use them to win this war once...and for all" anddd their back "your going to kill more people to turn them into these...these monsters" Jill says standing up "Has it never occurred to you that this planet is overpopulated? Only a handful of humans truly matter. Everyone else is just so much chaff. So now I have to separate this chaff from the wheat. With this new vaccine, I can finally accomplish this." Jill glares at them "ill make everyone take the vaccine and they will all be under my control...those who live will be gift edge the power of the virus and those who are rejected...well...they die" they chuckle walking closer to Jill "you really are a monster" Jill tries to slap them but they grab their wrist and break it making Jill scream in agony "he was right...you really are weak" they start walking away "ill send someone to nurse that little bobo" they laugh devilishly as they close the door.
Taking a deep breath, you start walking in th halls but stop as you feel a headache coming in 'Who am i'...'I need to go see the doctor' you, I mean, they start running down the halls to the laboratory when they reach the laboratory they scream, "What is wrong with me!" The doctor jumps slightly."Is everything all right, Irons?" Their breathing becomes heavy."Who the hell am i?!" The doctor frowns "sit down on the chair" they sit down on the chair as the doctor cover everything that may have a reflection, they take of their mask but you close your eyes to prevent yourself from seeing yourself, 'you?'...'why are their two people in my head...one is Irons but who is the other screaming to be free' before you can finish the thought the doctor injects something on your neck making you dizzy, after taking deep breaths they put the mask back on forgetting about everything that just happened "seems like the medicine is not working on you, have to bring it up a notch" they looked at the doctor "whatever, might as well be diagnosed with some type of disease headaches be making me re think of who I am, and I know exactly who I am" they say standing up taking the medicine "I think I might know a way to take ride of it" they look over their shoulder "i made a device that will directly give you the medicine when you need it "give it to me, these damn medicines aren't working for me doc" he sighs "Do you have anything this weak?" They shake their head."In 5 days, i have a reunion." he hums,"That'll be enough time for you to heal," he sighs."Come with me" they walk to a room with a table in the sentence they walk to it laying down "just fucking do it" Francis sighs, you take of your jacket leaving them in a shirt, Francis injects anesthesia making them dizzy and numb the last thing they heard was Francis stating "its done...they will be under your control, although they already were....yes... they won't be fighting anymore the personality you establish will be the one to control them...Allright" after that you passed out.
Opening your eyes you notice your being surrounded by a void two people approach you, one of them was you...No...it was the dictator the other one was a person, you couldn't see their face. The first to start speaking is the one on the left, the faceless one "what have you done" they cry, the other one laughs "what are you talking about cry baby, where making this world a favor" they chuckle "by eliminating the human race" the masked person slaps the faceless one "shut up bitch, I'm making the human evolution happen" the faceless one faces you "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE" they screech
Waking up gasping for air, the dictator stand up, you aren't in control of your body, 'what's happening' the dictator looks around the room every mirror being covered, a sharp pain goes up their spin as they groan. Going to the bathroom the dictator moves the cover from the mirror, looking at themselves the step back as they cover their face 'im a monster' "stand up." A serious voice said, you look up at the mirror seeing yourself in the mirror but you can only see their eyes "you are a pathetic rat.. A COWARD" you growl as you start speaking...but it's not you "your the coward here.. hiding in my consciousness, I'm the one doing everything here. Not you" you stand up covering the mirror. "I'm the one doing everything here.
Iron punches the man in the head creating a dent. They stand up cleaning the blood from the mask they wore 'why are you doing this' "shut up" they snarl shutting the voice out...'its my turn to rule' Iron started walking "bring out the little...guest" the soldier nod jogging inside yhe palace, after a while the brought Jill in some restrains, bringing her up to Irons level, making her kneel down "tell me jill...who are these people to you" she glares up at Iron "these are people from the camp" she snarls as Iron claps and shots the first person "Good!" Jill screams at Iron "your little cries won't do anything..." Iron chuckles" your a monster "awe I'm a monster" he mocks laughing and killing everyone infeont of her "you monster, just wait until Chris finds out" Iron cutes her out "do you even know where we are" They laugh, forcing Jill to look at the dead bodies "where in Canada" they whisper in her ear, Jill's eye's widen "sense your so special to someone ill keep you alive, plus your off use, jill head butt's Iron cracking the goggles, and they slap her "put her away." The soldiers takes Jill away as she screams "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS" Iron scoffs 'she is right..' "shut up." Iron continues to kill everyone that was left to kill.
Heading back to the room Iron decides to go to the bathroom taking off their mask and removing the vail from the mirror, they were meet with the black figure "Came back for more?" He laughs mockingly "I know your not me." Iron grips the sink "You do not control me" he laughs again as Iron looks away."Aww is the little dictator to scared to look at itself?" They mock "face it, despite your little existencial crisis, or dissociative identity disorder...I'm you" their voice becomes deeper "a better version of you...a version that could make things...how they should be...I could bring the person you've been seeing in your vision...I know who they are...you just forgot...Because your an insolente, idiotic baboon. A rat a pathetic rat!" Iron throws something at the mirror making it break, Iron grabs their face and tries to control their breathing as a familiar faceless woman appears again...but this one isn't the same as the other one that you faced in your dream earlier...no..it felt nostalgic. Iron puts its mask back on and went to their desk, after filling some paper work a soldier came in "sir, Elijah as arrived" they look over their shoulders "he came early...give him the room I have assigned for him" they stand up "I'll be sparing with our guest" the soldier nods and leaves, Iron started walking down the hallway when they reached a door they opened it "get up" they growl Jill, she just looks at them "to poor to fix your mask huh?" She rolls her eyes he glares at her "come with me. Now" Jill scoff walking with Iron, the walk was quiet until they reached the sparing room, Iron opened the door, that was when Noah tackled Iron, they faked fall into the ground "ah you have gotten stronger i may tap out" they chuckle "Foxie" the kid chuckles, Jill looks surprised at their interaction, Iron stands up holding the kid "i want you to train him." Jill was left speechless "after everything you have done!" Jill snarls, they walk into the sparing room "is understand, but your not doing this for me...your doing it for him" Jill looks at the kid "I'm not good with kids" they say back "and I'm not a dictator" Jill smirks "touché" Iron places de kid down as he kneels down "I want you to beat her ass okay" the little kid salutes "Yes Foxie" standing up "be gentle with im and at least show I'm some basics" "he is just a little kid it can't be to har-" Jill hisses as the kid it's her in the abandoned "ok he has a hard punch" after a while jill was just dodging his hits but she also taught him some basics "you can both rest for now" the little kid went under the leader coat hiding from Jill "if i hide in the dark then she won't expect me" he giggles, Iron pulls up his coat to reveal the kid clinging to Irons leg "Hey! Don't reveal me to the enemy" he pouts, Iron bring back down their coat "thank you for helping me out" they say looking at jill "why couldn't you train him yourself" they hum "im supposed to be in recovery" Jill hums "hope it kills you" Iron chuckle "let's just see what happens then" Noah peaks their head out "Foxie you aren't supposed to make talks with the enemy!" Iron looks down "I'm just making a distraction" they whisper and Noah hide again as Iron chuckles "for you being a dictator...your good with kids" he scoffs "going soft on me?" Jill was going to protest but got tackled by Noah "i knocked her down foxie!" Iron pats their head "Good Job, Noah" the kid laughs "can we have her for diner today" Iron laughs "what?" Noah looks confused "yes we can have her over for diner" he chuckles "whats so funny" Jill scoffs picking up Noah "don't worry, so immature" Iron still us laughing 'doesn't this feel familiar?' The voice in your head says 'this...doesn't feel as bad' a deeper voice speaks, the softer one replies 'told you so' you look at Jill
"Sorry sorry, what where you saying" Jill scoffs "when is diner anyway" you hum "soon, there will also be another guest" Jill hums "head over to my office and send a soldier with you" Noah speaks up "I'm a soldier, I can watch over a criminal" Noah jumps out of Jill arms "i understand, then it's settled" you know where my office is at, right" Noah salutes "Yes foxie!" "All right then" behind Noah, back i hand jill a map to my office "just in case" Jill nods. Iron leaves the room and heads towards Elijah 'You like her' the soft voice mocks 'i am only using her' the deeper voice says 'keep telling yourself that' you scoff as 'what do you think JJ' you could speak 'hmm righti forgot, poor thing' the soft voice says 'shut up, im only using her so that she can tell me everything she knows' you speak up 'that wont happen' yiur body stops walking 'so you can speak!' The soft voice squeaks 'what makes you say that' they glare at nothing 'I may not remember who they are but i know them...' you say with a serious tone 'I may only control what i say but ill be in control of my nody again...' they scoff 'ill make sure that doesn't happen' the soft voice giggles 'you both like her!' They both say together 'shut up'
Iron goes down the hall knocking on Elijah's room, Elijah opened the door "Iron" he salutes "At ease" they say "follow me, we will have some dinner with another guest" they both walk down until we reached Irons office entering Elijah speaks "Jill!?" He exclaims "Elijah?" Jill says surprised "seems that you both know eachother?" Iron asks "where old friends" Jill says, iron narrows their eyes at Elijh 'Jealousy is crazy' the soft voice says, scoffing Iron walks to the table "wheres Noah" they ask Jill as Noah scares Iron, Iron jolts backwards, "scared me little soldier" Iron chuckles, Elijah looks a t Jill shocked but Jill just smiles at their interaction "what do you all want to eat?" Jill hums, Elijah speaks first "ill just have some steak with potato" Jill laughs "same as always" Elijah just looks away "leave me alone" he puffs his chest out "ill have dino nuggies" Iron chuckles "okay, how about you jill" Iron sits behind the dak and Noah sits on a chair next to them "ill just have quiche" Elijah laugh "miss your parents in france" Jill scoff "I hope their doing okay" Iron frowns "do not worry, i have an alliance with france" Jill looks surprised at Iron as they types something down "food will be ready in 30" Jill looks at Elijah "what do you mean you have an alliance with france" Iron looks at Jill "as you know I'm trying to conquer the whole world, france saw an opportunity to re build france, so I gave it to them...Now if they betray me they will perish tho I can make adjustments to make sure your family is safe" Jill lo×ðok±s uneasy "that doesn't change that your going to bomb france" "who said i was going to bomb it" Jill was going to stand up but Elijah sits her back down "just say it" Jill stands up "when you are in closed doors you seem, so kind...but in the outside you're...you're an asshole" she grits her teeth as you lower your head "I will not lie, sometimes I am someone different yes...but it's not my fault" Iron stands up as the soldiers bring the food in placing them on the table "we shall discuss this... later" they sit back down as the food is placed infront of the and the others 2 do the same, Iron looks to the side and sees Noah eating their food "slow down you'll choke" Noah hums 'your going to tell them?' The softer voice speaks 'her, JJ was right...there's something familiar about her...' Iron brings their mask up over their lips only showing their chin and the scars across my lip, Jill and Elijah look at Iron and then back at eachother "i got this scar when I was taking mexico" they said en between bites, Jill hums "what are you eating, iron looks at them, "you want to know?" Jill rolls her eyes "i asked for a reason" Iron sigh "its a type of steak with plantain" they say "want some?" Jill nods Iron stands up placing the plate infront of Jill "help yourself" Jill takes a piece of meet and plantain, Jill hums "its good" Irons scoffs told you so, giving her a smirk. Elijah clears his throat "you could have some" Elijah shakes his hands "no it's fine" 'i think she like her to' Oron grabs the plate again heading over to their desk 'its whatever I don't like her so it's fine' 'whatever, you do you' the soft voice giggles you finish your plate as Elijah recalls their time together in their past before the World War Noah looks at him in awe as Iron continues working Noah speaks up "Foxie do you remember what you did before the World War" Elijah looks surprised as Noah calls him that, "i dont remember my past" Noah frowns, he looks at Jill and ask the same question, Iron makes a small eye contact with Jill, and he looks at her dumb founded 'bingo' the small voice giggles "i remember a time..." everyone shuts up "where i went fishing...a friend of mine caught a fish... everyone was laughing" Iron looks up from them "thats cool" Iron hums, hours pass as they talk, after a while Iron stands up grabbing a file "Elijah" Elijah looks at Iron "heres the file you asked me" Elijah gets up and grabs the file and opens it "thank you" Iron just sighs, "I bet you both are tired head back and rest tomorrow is going to be a rough day...ill be discussing what i told you about" Jill and Elijah stands up "I'll be in my room if you need anything, just knock" Iron walks out the room, entering their room Iron takes of their cape and change into some comfortable clothes, taking off their gass mask but put a normal mask around their face laying down on the bed Iron can't stop thinking of her 'gotchu' 'shut it, JJ. Why am just feeling this' 'bc we all are' says the serious voice 'she hates us' the angry voice says 'maybe if you let JJ take control you'll know that she won't hate us if you let her see you' the angry voice snarls 'not happening' its just a random, it'll go away eventually' Iron says 'we are all one, and youll never going to get over it' 'you little- and their gone' "assholes"
