Child Of God

Inside the castle, on the island that had been named "The Lair", the Primes sat around the big table in the main hall with serious expressions on their faces. Today was the day when they finally made their places within the Primes official. So far there was one thing among them that had already been decided, and that was Merlin's rank within the organization. Because of her unique status, she just couldn't be fairly placed within the ranks. So Merlin, instead of becoming a Prime, she got granted the rank of Queen, which was the second-highest position, only below Empress, which was held by Maleficent. So she became the Queen of the whole organization, the one that controlled the Primes. And much of this was decided Kurama. He was beyond loyal to Maleficent so when Merlin became the "wife" of Maleficent, Kurama refused to have a higher rank than her, and Kurama being anything other then the 1st Prime was ridiculous to everyone, so therefor Merlin was given an entirely new rank.

"So here are the official ranks within The Family," Merlin said and through magic, projected a tier list in mid-air, above the centre of the table.

The ranking went like this, from highest to lowest.

________________

-Empress- -Leader Of The Family.

-Queen- -Overseer Of The Primes.

-Primes- -Elite Unit Of The Family.

-Knights- -Direct Subordinates Of Primes.

-Esquire- -Foot Soldier.

"I still don't like that the newbie has a higher rank than me, it's so unfair," Sabo said quietly while sulking.

"EEH, what was that, kid? You don't like Lady Merlin?" Netero yelled out loudly after hearing what Sabo had said and decided to tease him a little. Sabo, the victim to this prank panicked and hushed the old man, "Shut up, old man, you will be the death of me!" Sabo said with a stern voice between gritted teeth.

"Hehe, I will not be silenced!" Netero said and leaned back while crossing his arms with a bright smile on his face. Maleficent, Merlin and Kurama stared at Sabo and he felt great pressure from their gazes and he sunk further down his chair, almost disappearing from view.

"Sabo, if you feel these rankings are unfair you are more then welcome to challenge Merlin to a fight," Maleficent said with a smile.

"And Netero, the next time you interrupt a meeting to pull a silly and fun little prank... I will help myself to one of your limbs." Maleficent said in a smile that froze Netero's blood cold.

"Got it, Boss!" Netero smiled nervously and said.

"Now, Lady Maleficent have wanted to pick an official name for our organization that we will go by when we start our conquest to take over the known existence and all the universes inside of it." Kurama began to say and caught everyone's attention. And he took a breath and continued, "So our name that we will use from now on will be, The Order Of The Cosmic Eye. We will be known as being completely omnipresent. We are everywhere and we see everything. This is the will of Maleficent." Kurama said in a serious tone. And all the Primes around the table nodded seriously and saluted.

"Before this meeting ends, the ranks of the Primes will be revealed," Maleficent said and snapped her finger. And everyone here felt a burning sensation on their forehead, and after a second a tattoo had appeared on all their foreheads.

"This is something that everyone within our organization will have. It will always be invisible, so just apply magic to that spot on your forehead and the tattoo will reveal itself." Maleficent said and on her forehead was the tattoo of the King piece from the board game chess, and Merlin had the Queen.

The Primes had a tattoo of an eye with a visible pupil, and inside that pupil was a number that represented their rank within the Primes. And the rankings went like this, from highest to lowest.

The important thing to note was that these numbers didn't represent strength. All of the current and future Primes were all monsters in their own right, so the ranks were based on more than who could blow up planets faster.

Sabo looked around the table and saw everyone's numbers, "I'm okay with this," He looked at Hanc.o.c.k and showed a victorious smile.

"Lady Maleficent, why is that smug little shit higher ranked than me!?" Hanc.o.c.k said and turned to the magnificent Empress.

"Hanc.o.c.k, these ranks are temporary until we get all the members for the Primes. We still have a few more recruitment mission to launch. And the ranks does not represent strength. We all know that you are a bit stronger than Sabo at the moment. So these rankings are based on more than strength. And overall, Sabo is valued more because of his magic and his future potential. But don't feel so sad, he is higher ranked then Netero as well and you and Sabo are like ants compared to him. So the ranks really don't mean anything when it comes to strength."

"If Lady Maleficent speaks it, then it is indeed the absolute truth," Issho said and nodded to himself. He together with the other members had no interest in placement among the Primes. They all just wanted adventure and the ability to explore many worlds.

"And with that, this meeting is adjourned!" Merlin acted her role as overseer and ended the meeting. She, Kurama and Maleficent remained behind as the other primes left the table.
