"Rain... It's depressing ain't it Suyo?"

"Only on a day like this sir..." Suyo replies, shrugging his shoulder.

"Way to be nonchalant. For Avo to be found with a sword puncturing his heart, someone or something has to have killed him." Blablob replies with his eyes tearing up.

"You're right..." Suyo says with a loud sigh, "I honestly can't believe he's lost his mortality."

"So, I'd like to know when the funeral is being held. We've lost one of the people that made this place what it is, and how in blazes are we supposed to tell everyone? They're most likely going to be scared that something did this to one as loyal to us as him."

Blab wipes a single tear off of his eye, gazing at the lapis lazuli colored sky, gazing at the rain endlessly falling to the ground. He sits on a slightly stained couch and starts drinking his glass of tea.

"I know it's a little hard to be strong about it. And I'm sure everyone will mourn this loss. I've started to lose trust in a lot of the people in this great city, and it must be one of those living in this great city that killed him," Suyo replies without hesitation.

He grasps Blablob's hand and pulls him off the couch, looking at his pale face.

"You're a tough one. Tomorrow, we reveal what happened. After that however... We go straight to buisness. I want whoever the hell killed him to have his head mounted above MY fireplace. and if it was one of our main followers... I have something a little special from them," snapping his fingers repeatedly.

"I agree with you Suyo. Whoever did this doesn't deserve to live here. I just don't want to see that ♥♥♥♥♥ burned on sight with me there. The one thing I just can't stand is seeing someone die in front of me. It's just disturbing seeing one's motionless body lying in that coffin to be filled with nothing but dark memories," Blab says, "It's usually one you've loved and cherished, and their death brings grief to all that were close to that soul."

"Y'know, that's one of the most correct things you'll ever say in your life. And you know what? I'd say everyone has a right to hear that speech of yours. I'm really inspired that you recovered so quickly. I'll let the word out tomorrow in the nicest way I can. Until then, get some sleep. It's almost 10:00," Suyo finishes, making a soft clap.

"I'll see you later tomorrow morning. Meet me at the cemetery by noon, okay Suyo?"

"Right then." Suyo pauses to take a deep breath. "I'll see you at noon then."

The two disband from there, both heading to their respective homes in Runopolis. It's going to be a dark day in the morning, and the word will finally get out about Avo's untimely death...



Chapter 1: An Endless Rain


(No given time frame)


"Ugh, thanks for lettin' me sleep here Star," I tell him, rather obliged by his offer.

"Y'know, how am I going to say no when your house was flooded?" Star replies, facing me.

"I need to head to the tavern to pick up a few things. Where's the umbrella?" I ask

"In the closet. By the way Master, if you see anything out of the ordinary, give me a holler!"

"Thanks man!"

I slowly walk out the door to see it has been raining nonstop for 3 days now. So maybe this is something out of the ordinary, but everyone knows that it's been raining, seeing you would usually recognize a weather change. Taking out the map from my back pocket, I can just barely get a chance to find the tavern before the ink starts running off the map, leaving me with a blank sheet of paper.

"Damn it... This thing is supposed to last!" I yell.

I'm a bit new around the city, so I usually get lost after a bit of aimlessly walking around.

All of a sudden, the emergency sirens roar to life. I'm startled a bit at first, wondering what happened. Then I notice the huge crowd around Blablob and Suyo themselves. I run towards the commotion, to see dread upon the both of them. Suyo clears his throat, and tells everyone a sad story.

"Ahem, I need EVERYONE'S attention," Suyo speaks in a clear tone, and I notice several others running up to the crowd to get a better look of everything, wondering what's going on.

"Just the other day, we found something a bit- well, disturbing... Avolerators is... dead."

A few people in the crowd start crying, and I can't help but feel bad for Avo. What happened to him? He's a young guy, so I have to wonder what happened to him.

"Settle down everyone! Let Suyo finish his speech will ya?

"Thank you Blablob, not continuing on. He was found dead on the bridge connecting Runopolis with the Eastern Cove, with a sword inserted into his heart. If any single one of you has any idea of the murder's whereabouts... Tell me... now."

The crowd becomes quiet, dead silent, and the rain drowns out any noise that one might have made.

"Anyone? All I need is one word... and I can track down the one who wished to send him hellbound."

Nobody responds. It's nearly 5 minutes before Suyo gives up.

"So... Nobody here knows who killed Avolerators? Well then. Here's the next idea I have for you. If anyone goes missing or disappears for a long period of time, tell me this as well."

"What about Killswitch?" I blurt out.

"Master, thank you. If anyone else has an idea of who has been gone for awhile, tell me now or forever hold your piece.

A few more people yell names out, such as Silver, who has admittedly been gone awhile, as well as Nero, Marko, and a few others.

"Thank you for your time," Suyo says into the microphone, "we will attempt to find said suspects, and if I find any sort of rebellion between any of them, there will be hell to pay."

I know you're scared, and your generosity makes you weak. You'll never find me, and the one to kill the childish one was me. If you find me however, I'll have no choice but to start killing you off one by one. If you find me, I'll make sure my rebellion spreads. You're going nowhere with your searches. Those idiots have just been captured by me.

Hurm, I like it. Yes, I do very much indeed like it.

ZThere are a few technical aspects of writing that need work... but euh, other than those, I think the plot can really go far!

It's again, nice, but there is an extremely large lack of description. It makes the story less exciting to read, as well as making the plot go by WAY too fast. There are a few gramamtical errors here and there as well; a program like Microsoft Word could clear those up. However, I really liked the italicized part at the end. Nice use of foreshadowing.

Chapter 2: Hell at the Funeral

It's been 2 days since Avo's death, and the entire city has gone completely nuts. Areas in which everyone would swarm like bees were as quiet as can be. The heavily populated Off Topic Area had gone silent enough to be called a ghost town. More than half the civilians locked their doors afraid they would be the next victim of that mysterious killer. I myself had been running inside hours before it became pitch black outside.

It's 6:00 A.M., and there was a funeral to attend in approximately four hours from the current time. However, it felt like every minute was an hour as I tried to occupy myself in the little apartment I called home. Knowing I was getting closer to having to see Avo's dead corpse gave me chills inside. What in Hell would his decomposing flesh look like anyway? Realizing it was a bit rude to put it that way, I stopped thinking about it.

Minute by minute, the clock ticks as slow as a snail on a treadmill. Gazing at tthe clock one more time, I realize I need to leave. It's finally time for the dreaded event.
Almost everyone has gathered in the central area of the cematary. I wear black clothing, as do a lot of the other notable people. I notice that all of the big guns have gathered to chat with Suyo, who was currently inside the old chateau. Finally telling myself I can't wait any longer, I attempt to go through the mob of people unnoticed, yet SuperMIC notices my wherabouts, and catches me by suprise at the chateau entrance.

"Are you really going to try and eavesdrop on the leaders of the city?" SMIC blurts out.

"Erm... I-"

"Yeah, your expression gave it away easy as 1-2-3. Not exactly something a newbie should do..."

"Argh, you're right. Guess I was getting impatient," I say in reply.

"Yeah, let's head back and wait." SMIC says, with his restless eyes concentrated at me.
"Thank you all for coming to the mourning."
The crowd silently takes in every word frrom Suyo like the oxygen in the air.

"Now, as we announced earlier this week, Avolerators was murdered. The identity of our criminal is yet to be found. Our represenatives Usuario and Brando have taken several hours off their busy schedules to slave over this investigation." Suyo takes a moment to catch his breath. "Now, please take a moment and look at this coffin."

I hear several start to cry as the Mods bring the coffin over to a large hole. The shovel remains in the ground while aa pile of soil, looking freshly dug, is to one side.

The entire staff recites one simple line: "Let the soul of Avolerators rest withing every one of us."

The coffin is inserted into the soil, and Four is left with the dirty work of placing the dirt back in that wretched hole.

It's not even 5 minutes after the end of the funeral, and buses are already packed to go to the different districts of the city. Unluckily, nobody sees a plane flying in the air.

"Permission to drop the bomb, sir?"

"Of course, kill them all."

"Right away lord."

"MISSLE 1 READY TO FIRE! COORDINATES OF LANDING: 124x, 568y!


The missle travels through the clouds at supersonic speed, and Runouw sees the flare out his top floor window.

"SUYO! EVACUATE THE GRAVEYARD NOW!!"

"Rob?! What do you mean?"

"THE FUNERAL IS GOING TO BE BLOWN TO SMITHEREENS YOU DUMBASS!!! MOVE!"

Runouw himself is far too late to contact the staff, for the missle lands next to a bus, blowin it into a nearby memorial.

Chapter 3: A Terrorist Attack



"NO!" Suyo cries out, as a second missile blows up a nearby tombstone.

"Suyo, I hate to break it to you, but there's a bus full of people that need rescuing," Blab quickly tells Suyo, with sweat streaming down his face, "We don't know how many missiles there will be, but we need to evacuate FAST."

"You think I don't already know that? There's another heli above us, which is obliviously the culprit. Get them out of that ♥♥♥♥ bus before they all die!"

"Yes sir!"

Everyone runs like hell as a girl speaks out of a megaphone on top of the helicopter.

"Hello miserable ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of Runopolis. I am who you would call... a rebel. See that man over there? Yes, Suyo you idiots. I'm just here for him," says the mystery girl.

"Well, I'll be damned. If it ain't you Silver. Or should I call you by your full name, Silver Hide Studio," Suyo replies to the mystery man in a stern voice."

"What did he say she was?" "No, it can't be Silver can it?" "But why? She was well acquainted with us all!" "Since when was she such a shady character?" I hear many people talking of the attacker, Silver. Who is she, I wonder. It was like the melancholy event the other day, Avo's death. How many more were about to die to kill Suyo? What did he do to have enemies?

"Why, I'm suprised to see you remember me, darling. Not to act like I like like you or anything, but you're coming with me. Otherwise, I'll blow every single one of you up! The place hasn't just been ravaged with explosives, but I had a few of your crowd members rig the cemetary with explosives as well. You're all dead! As you can see, we've planned it all out, so resistance is completely futile," Silver cries out laughing.

"So you really do know what you're doing," Suyo says with a smirk on his face.

"You can't seriously be smiling at a time like this Suyo," MP3 tells him with a scared look, "what are you planning now?"

Azn steps in on the conversation and says, "Please, he always plans ahead. Knowing that Avo was dead, the murder and perhaps some cohorts would show up while we were vunerable. Little do they know it, we have the upper hand."

"Try not to say that too loudly, we don't want Silver hearig you spoil everything now," Suyo angrily tells Azn.

Star and I head over to the mods to listen in on the plan, and SuperMIC, Karyete, and one of the more wise guys, Volcove, follow us, wishing to stop the terrorist attack.

"Sigh, you want in don't you? Can't say I'm not suprised, seeing a couple of you are new."

Pulling out a dagger, I spring to Suyo, holding my dagger to his neck. "Ever heard of a suprise attack?" I yell.

"Heh, not bad. But I know you won't kill me, seeing the main target is her," Suyo replies.

"Dammit, ow are you even listening?!" Silver yells with rage, "I've got the entire area rigged with bombs, and you continue to talk? Look at me with fear, for I know it's hiding somewhere in your damn head!

Star rushes into the cemetary pulling out a samurai sword, and notices the bumps all across the ground. It' freshly turned dirt, showing the people setting the bombs weren't good at covering their tracks.

"Guys, run over here! Don't step on the bumps in the ground, you'll set off all the land mines at once!" Star screams so that we can all hear.

The rest of us run across the graveyard, making sure to take extra caution not to step on land mines.

"Star, to your left!" Karyete says, noticing that Star doesn't see a mine in front of him.

Quickly dodging the land mine, he gives proper thanks, yet is out of breath from the run.

"No, they made it? They bypassed all the mines, and that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ must've told them about the chopper inside the chateau. I'm in deep ♥♥♥♥, I can tell..." Silver tells herself, and Suyo just sits there and smiles. He knows he's won the battle.

Suyo tells Silver, "Can't you see I'm smarter than that? Do you think I didn't plan ahead? That's what the likes of you never realize. Just because you have bombs and think you're tough doesn't mean we can't plan ahead and stop you. Nothing is impossible if you put thought to it, which is when you underestimated us. The tables have turned, and you're about to lose."

"No- Impossible..." Silver stammers.

~


"So where'd he hide that button?" I say aloud.

"Think I found its hiding spot guys," Karyete says, pushing the button.

Right there, the floor begins to open up under our feet. Running off of the platform that is opening below us, the four of us see the helicopter rise out of the flooring. Getting on, we instantly notice the control panel, and SuperMIC does his thing by flipping several switches. How the Canadian teen could operate a helicopter I will never know.

"Okay, we're busting out of this joint," SuperMIC yells through the roaring of the chopper's propeller, "Let's kick Silver's ♥♥♥!"

"Master, think you can jump out when we get up to Silver? Just don't kill her or Suyo and the others won't be too happy with us. I'm sure he wants to have a looonnng talk with her," Star says to me.

"Agreed," I reply back.

The heli roars out of the chateau's broken rooftop, and SuperMIC sends us flying towards Silver. The look of fear in her eyes is easily noticed by all of us, and Suyo still sits there and laughs.

"Can't you see? We've already won Silver. Turn yourself in or we chop your head off with the heli's blade. You have around a minute to decide," Suyo says in a relaxed tone.

"Not before I kill you first!" Silver yells, "If you hadn't all betrayed our master, I wouldn't be forced to do this! You sent him to Hell, and he came back as you all knew would happen. Now I'll send many of you hell bound as well!"

"My my, what`do you have now? You have less than a minute to live, yet you still ramble about nothing about your leader."

"Please Suyo, I have one more trick up my sleeve. There's still one more missile left, and I can use it to blow up anything or anyone I want. How's about I use it on you?"

"It's too late, look Silver."

"YOU'RE DEAD YOU EVIL ♥♥♥♥♥!!" SuperMIC yells out of the chopper window, as I swoop down on Silver and hold the knife to her neck.

"No... You wouldn't let this kid kill me, would you Suyo?"

"Don't kill her Master, you'll just give up another chance to give us info about Avo's death."

"Who said I'd actually talk?" Silver replies in anger.

"I don't know, a bit of torture. You're familiar with his way of torture, are you not?"

"No... Please, don't Suyo..."

"Then disarm the bombs, get down here, and be our hostage. If not, Master will kill you now."

"Sigh, damn, you win..."

Silver's helicopter descends to the ground, and sever mods put her in chains immediately. There's one terrorist down, and this one will probably never get out. Heading home after a long day, I turn on my TV to see the news report on the issue. Everyone has been saved from the bus luckily.However, there's still a chance something worse could happen tomorrow...

Chapter 4: The Explanation

Silver was sitting in a dark room, shackled to an iron chair. Her wrists and legs could barely move, and it was easy to tell she was completely stationary. No light could seep through the door that separated the chair magnetically locked to the floor from actual light. A PA system turned on.

"Silver, I wish to speak to you. I mean no harm at the moment, but I guarantee that your mind will slowly deteriorate until there is nothing but hopelessness in that small brain of yours," a voice boomed out of the speaker.

She sat there and said nothing.

"Not going to say anything? Well then, let's get you out of there temporarily."

The door opened, blinding silver with the brightness of the light in the room behind that door. It had been at least two days without light, food, or water. A cloaked figure opened the cell in order to knock Silver unconscious with chloroform.
"Silver... Silver....."

Silver awoke and immediately realized she was next to the shore of the Grand Lake. An extremely complicated knot tied her to a dead weight. Did he hope do drown her, or did he only want her to feel like she was going to die?

Suyo slowly backed away from Silver.

"Pretty nice knot isn't it?" Suyo said, "I guarantee that knot is so complicated, that if I were to throw the dead weight into the lake, you wouldn't untie it quickly enough to surface. Now, you have two options: Inhale a metric ton of water, or answer my question: What did you hope to accomplish during your attack at the funeral?"

"I wanted to strike fear into the civilians for my master..." Silver replied weakly.

"And who is this master of yours, Silver?"

"I'll never tell the likes of your putrid face," she said, knowing she was about to die.

"So, you wish to drown in the lake, and take the pain of water rushing into your lungs, as your vision dims until nothing but your corpse remains?"

"If it means keeping the Lord alive, I'll gladly accept."

"Who is this lord you speak of? Do we know him?"

"I'll give you one hint," Silver replied, "He's a man you all know well, and he always seems like a goody goody."

With the final words of Silver, Suyo angrily tossed the weight into the lake and watched with an evil grin as she drowned.
