There was a great riot outside. Many citizens had stormed the gates of the capitol that held their hated leaders. Vladimir paced back and forth in his office, sweet running down his brow at the thought of what was about to come. Most of the army had abandoned them, consumed in the fire of revolution that had swept through the land.
"Vlad, there is no way we are going to make it is there?" a voice said from the dark corner of the room. "No Demetre, not this time." Vlad replied. There was no escape this time, no support, and no use of charm. They were trapped...and oh how they thought things would be different this time. So right and yet so wrong at the same time.
BOOM
A hazy cloud of smoke and rubble filled the garden leading into the capitol. The military back up had finally arrived. Back up that Vlad had wished was on his side this time. "It's time." Demetre proclaimed. Raising the gun toward his head he pulled the trigger, a quick bang and a flop and he was gone. Vladimir, however, pefered to face his death with honor. He sat in his chair, back to the door, sipping on his brandy waiting for the mob to rush in. A quick snap and in they came.
"Your reign if over Vlad, we won't stand for this oppression any longer." the soldier proclaimed with a cheer from the crowd. Vlad stood up, trying to turn and look the soldier in the eyes only to be shot in the back before he could. Dark and cold, the last thing Vlad heard and saw was the proclamation of the New Order and the hanging of a banner with the word "Legion" written on it.
Omega suddenly snapped to attention. An odd commotion had come over him an hour ago, a great restlessness inside of him. And now it was gone...and with that feeling being gone he felt the same, yet different. He could hear new voices in the foreground...some that were in the background before. These answered to a new name now...and so too did he. The name started running through their head, erasing the old and replacing it "Legion".
He grinned.
Vast and many there were here to unleash themselves on the world now, and not Assembly or anyone could get in their way now.
[really the idea for the new name came when I started kicking myself for not thinking of it sooner...god I am really bad with names]
