Since her defection from the corrupted Empire and the "death" of two of her closest friends, Akame joins Night Raid, an Assassination squadron put together by the Revolutionary Army to combat the Empire's strong forces and to rid it of all corruptio...
Grunting and impact noises could be heard coming from deep in the forest near to the Night Raid Base. Two females could be seen sparring, more specifically Akame and Mine. Mine quickly sent a strong kick to Akame, which she held her arms up to block the attack and tank the impact before they backed away from each other.

Akame: *grins* "You're really motivated, Mine."
Mine: *grins* "The Empire's Strongest is after my Boyfriend. Of course I am!"
Akame only grinned as she charged and reengaged with Mine. Meanwhile, a bit away from them, Dairoku was seen, kneeling on his knees with his eyes closed and Yoake stabbed into the ground next to him. But there was something evident about them; both had a thin red aura surrounding them.
Athena: "There you go. Concentrate. Think about the feelings you felt that drove you over the edge, the power that those feelings unleashed. Now visualize what you want to protect."
Barbatos or as she's known as, Athena, told him as he only hummed in response, concentrating on what she said. The feelings he felt when he was driven mad... The power that those feelings unleashed... and what he wants to protect the most...
Dairoku's thoughts: "Akame..."
This is the beginning, of Death's Harbinger's awakening.
CHAPTER 43: KILL THE DISASTER
The grandfather clock within the Jaeger's normally lively meeting room, ticked as Wave had sat at the end of the table, in complete silence. Soon the sound of the door opening behind him, caught his attention; Kurome had entered the room, with a covered box.
Kurome: "Wave, I cot a cake. Do you want some?" Seeing her, created a small smile on the seaman's face.
Wave: "Y-Yeah, sure. This is rare. You never share with anyone."
Kurome: "This doesn't have any drugs in it." She said, putting the box down on the table and unwrapping it to reveal the cake. "I'll save a slice for Lauren when she wakes up and let's get Run, too. It's a Jaeger rule to eat meals together."
She reached for the dormant scythe, Himitsume, in order to use it to summon Run's corpse, only for Wave to grab her by the shoulders and stop her.
Wave: "N-No, you don't need to! Hey, don't use your powers for things like this." The short haired ravenette blushed a bit from being flustered from his action but from realization.
Kurome: "O-Okay. I got it. I'll make some tea!" She hurriedly exited that portion of the room to go create some tea as Wave watched her go, before remembering the time she came back the day after her, Lauren, Run and Lieselotte went out to destroy Wild Hunt.
(Flashback)
Wave: "No... Run..." The day after Champ, Enshin and Cosmina's assassinations, Kurome returned to the capital which a heavy downpour was already taking place in it, with Run's puppet by her side and in his arms was the seemingly dead Lauren.
