Chapter 7: Hit and Run

"Hmm… I must admit, it’s fun watching them progress. It’s as if we were watching our kids grow up."

"Perhaps for you. I do not have such an attachment to them."

"Ah, but of course. You hardly know them. You have not seen the… Determination and hard work which I have seen."

"My job here is only to foresee that you don’t break that determination."

"You are too suspicious Colonel. When have I ever done anything that would disrupt their… Learning?"

"Hmph… I can never trust anything you do. You are too clever for your own good, and you know it."

"I guess your intervention will have to wait… We have a guest in our presence now…"

"Ah… Yes… Good evening… Marioiscool."


MoY watched from a safe distance as TBG and Brando fought vigorously. He knew that even if Brando won, Avo would be there to take him out, so the chances of him surviving were low. He grinned to himself. ’Time for a little balancing.’ He jumped forward and shot his energy blaster towards Avo. Watching as he dodged it, MoY shot another one straight at the point where Avo would land.

With quick reflexes, Avo saw the ball coming his way and fired his own out of the palm, shooting at the ground and creating a shockwave that made him fly away from where MoY shot. Avo landed hard on the ground, MoY already pouncing forth with his great battle axe over his head. Avo rolled away as MoY swung his deadly weapon down in a murderous arc.

With a great leap, Avo jumped on MoY and begun to claw at him, but MoY had his axe in front and was able to fend Avo off from getting anything but one cut. MoY pushed him off and scrambled back up, holding his axe across his body as a shield. They were both were breathing heavily, watching each other as they waited for an opening.

A sniper rifle shot cracked through the sky, a cannon shot was heard, and that was their cue. Simultaneously, MoY and Avo jumped towards each other and attacked. MoY went for a side swing to Avo’s left side, while Avo took a claw swipe at MoY’s left as well. They both met at the same time, and were suddenly thrown onto the ground away from each other by a bright flash that appeared.

Avo recovered first, still wondering what the light was. Then he realized that he heard footsteps, and turned around to see Brando running off towards two other figures. MoY slowly got up, his armor far heavier then Avo’s.

"OGE," Avo whispered, getting into a defensive stance towards MoY. "What was that light?"

"The energy burst that occurred was Physical Lock-up. When two melee attacks meet simultaneously, they nullify each other and instead create a force that is the combination of the two, blasting away anything around it."

Avo could see out of the corner of his eyes, a body beginning to dissipate. He didn’t need to do the math; TBG was defeated. Brando was probably angry that their battle was interfered. He smiled as the blood rushed through his veins. Avo knew exactly how TBG felt now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Brando ducked when he saw Azn raise his gun; soon after, a bullet whizzed past him. Firing off with his battle rifle, he started to charge forth. Nin10mode took a shot, but Brando was able to dive into the grass before the shot got close. He was only a hundred meters away from them at this point.

He headed towards the left, slowly spiraling towards them, diving, jumping, and sometimes stopping and heading towards the other direction. His goal was to stay unpredictable so that they wouldn’t be able to get a clear shot, and it worked. They pulled out their pistols and began firing at Brando while running backwards.

"Hey!" Brando yelled out at them as he stopped. Nin10mode and Azn both looked around with a quizzical look, thrown off at the ferocity of Brando’s outburst. "Stop running damn it!"

Azn and Nin10mode looked at each other before facing Brando. "Well… That’s the point. The more we run… The less of a chance we get shot." With that, Nin10mode and Azn ran off again, this time towards where Avo and MoY were fighting.

Brando turned angrily and shoulder aimed with his rifle. A stray bullet found its way to Nin10mode’s calves, and he instantly fell onto the ground. No cannon shot, he definitely wasn’t dead. He slowly got up and started moving again, but at a much slower pace with Azn holding him up. Using the pistol, Azn took a few shots at Brando which he ignored, as the shots were hastily fired.


He heard the clashing of steel and knew that they were getting close to where Avo and MoY were still fighting. Nin10mode settled back onto the ground, and they both started firing at Brando. With nimble feet, Brando was able to back away and get to a safe distance, but at that distance, he couldn’t hit anyone. He knew what he had to do.

Charging not towards the Nightcrashers, but towards Avo and MoY, he reloaded his gun, shot a few bullets, and yelled out the same words he had yelled to Azn and Nin10mode. "HEY!!!" He screamed. Avo and MoY both stopped mid-swing, MoY about to swing down at Avo, and Avo about to drill through MoY. ’Mental note… Random Outbursts are the best distraction.’

"WHAT’D YOU DO THAT FOR?!" MoY yelled, angry that their fight was interrupted.

Brando couldn’t resist the temptation. "I just wanted to tell you…. Hi." With that, he bolted off, hearing two explosions that followed. He turned around to see both MoY and Avo chasing him angrily, firing shots at him constantly.

Ahead was Azn and Avo, Avo seemingly had healed his injury, but was still a bit slower then before. He turned around, say MoY shoot an energy ball right at him, and knew that now was the time. With one smooth motion, he dived and rolled, the energy ball flying right over him. Then he spun around and pointed his gun at the direction of MoY and Avo, who aimed their guns right at him.

The cannon shot fired, and Brando’s idea had worked.

"AZNCHAU4EVER TERMINATED"

The teams were balanced, but now Brando had a glowing palm and energy blaster pointed straight at him. He heard footsteps behind him, but didn’t dare turn around. If he kept this position, MoY and Avo would have to decide who would die first.

Out of the corner of his eye, Nin10mode pointed his gun straight at MoY. "I think a little pay back is in order?" Nin10mode said, smiling, but then Avo switched his target at Nin10mode, and Brando pointed his battle rifle at Avo.

"Well, well, I think we have reached an impasse…" MoY said with a hint of amusement as he adjusted the hold of his Energy Blaster at Brando.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, in the VAGs Control Building Conference Room.

Four yawned and leaned back in his seat. The meeting had been scheduled for this morning, but they had been waiting for three hours now. Niklaw was making sounds with the glass bottle which he had finished drinking a while ago. Suyo had fallen asleep and found a nice bed out of the conference room table.

"What are we waiting for exactly?" Four finally said, getting up from his chair. He peeked out the door window that led out to the hall, but there was nobody in the hallways.

"Remember, Runouw is always ‘fashionably late.’" Niklaw said, setting his bottle down.

"Well yes, but why don’t we just come here later then?" Four said leaning on the wall next to the door.

"Eh. You never know when it’s one of Runouw’s crazy experiments." Niklaw grinned to that, thinking of the time before Four was a mod, when Niklaw and Suyo had actually come here later. It had turned out Runouw had been timing them on when they would arrive based on what time they though Runouw would come.

"Well, he should just set a later time then, I mean, I have a lot of procrastinating to do! It’s not like I can ju-AGH!" The door swung open perhaps a bit too hard, and Four was crushed by the wooden door. Suyo jumped up from the loud slam, but the low ceiling made him fall back again in a daze. Niklaw started laughing at the sight of both of them, which made his chair fall backwards from leaning too far.

"Now I know why I entrusted you with the forums." Runouw said in a sarcastic tone as he stepped into the room. All of them could do nothing but groan in reply as they all got themselves into a chair.

"Why did we have to do a conference here?" Suyo said, rubbing the bruise on his head.

"Because somehow… Our secret conferences at Forum 23 are being leaked." He looked accusingly at all three of them, who just shrugged and looked away. "Of course, not in great detail, or anything that would be harmful, but I do not want this to be heard outside these walls, you hear?" They all nodded, curious now as to what was so important that they had to switch rooms. "Not even to each other, what is heard in this room will not so much be uttered anywhere else, got it?" They all said yes, and Runouw nodded.

"Now, as you know, the VAGs games are going on right now." Runouw clicked a button and a projector showed a picture of the Solitary Plains on the wall. "Although they have not even finished the first game, I would like to enlighten you on our… Situation…"

The three didn’t talk. They had no idea where Runouw was going with this, so the best thing they could do was stay quiet and listen. "Hmm… But perhaps, we ought to bring in the fourth person?" Runouw said, and then looked at the still open doorway. "Colonel, please… If you can come in now?"

A man in a plain white polo and jeans walked in. He seemed to be in his mid 30s, but he was still muscular and tall. Suyo raised an eyebrow as he looked at the man. "Who are you?"

The man stared at Suyo for a minute, making Suyo awkward. As Suyo looked away from the man, he answered in a gruff voice. "Oh, nobody. Just a colonel of the United States Army."

Chapter 8: Winner

”Hmm…. The final moments of the battle. I have my bets on Avo.”

“Are you kidding me? Brando has the advantage. He could dodge any shot thrown at him.”

“So… Is that a bet?”

“Definitely… Well, who do you guys think will win?”

“Hmm… I’d say MoY. He can take the most hits and still come out without a scratch.”

“But at that close of range, Nin10mode could easily pick him off.”

“… Well… It seems that we too are at an impasse…”


Brando, Avo, Nin10mode and MoY sat in a square in silence. All of them were silent, holding their weapons out and pointing at different people. They would readjust their weapons every once in a while, but they didn’t move other then that. The wind had slowed died down and now there was only a slight breeze going through the air.

“What do we do now?” Nin10mode said, not tearing his eyes off of MoY.

“Well…” Avo started, “Once one of us fires, the rest of us are sure to follow suit… So what if we all fired at the same time?”

“Natural selection?” Brando grinned at the thought. “The strongest one will always come out on top?”

“Sounds good to me.” Nin10mode aimed his gun at MoY’s head. MoY would have a chance of avoiding the bullet at this close of distance.

“On three…” MoY said, and they all gripped their guns, or in Avo’s case, raised his arm.

“One… Two…” MoY looked at everyone and then bellowed. “THREE!”

In one swift movement, all of them moved almost at the same time. Brando ran to the left while firing at Avo. MoY dived into the ground and started shooting at Brando. Avo sprinted forward at Nin10mode, who had hopped backwards and was taking aim at MoY.

Realizing that Avo was sprinting forth, Nin10mode fired a quick shot at MoY, aiming for the legs. He didn’t have time to check if it had hit, since he had pulled out his pistol and was firing at Avo. Avo dodged with ease, his Berserker legs beings extremely fast for short distance. Nin10mode knew he wouldn’t be able to outrun Avo, so all he could do was make every shot count.

Avo would sometimes have to jump to the left or right, but he always continued bulleting straight towards Nin10mode. When he was only a few feet away, Avo hopped into the air and landed right on Nin10mode, slamming his claw around Nin10mode’s neck so that he wouldn’t be able to get out. Avo sat over Nin10mode, his other claw outstretched to deal the finishing blow.

“Any last words?” He grinned.

“You know that you should never say that.” Nin10mode said calmly in reply.

Avo realized what Nin10mode was saying and quickly lunged down towards Nin10modes face. As Nin10mode has been talking, his Sniper Rifle had formed in his hand, and he fired at Avo straight through the head. Avo’s claws, which were still flying towards Nin10mode’s face, veered to the right, letting Nin10mode jerk his head away as the razor sharp edges dug into the soft earth.

The cannon rang through the sky. Breathing heavily, Nin10mode pushed Avo’s dead body off of him, scrambling away from it. He sat on the cold hard ground, felt his neck where Avo had nearly hit, and stared as he slowly regained his breath. His eyes watched in horror as the cold and silent body of Avo slowly dissolved into the winds.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Brando watched MoY as he brandished his axe. “Ready for round two?” MoY said, smiling. Brando smiled and drew his sword.

“Just try not to make too much of a mess when I end you.” Brando said, leaping towards MoY with a vicious side cut. MoY used the pole of the axe to block the cut and then came down on Brando with an overhead vertical cut. Instead of dodging the blow, Brando stepped forward with his own sword laid vertically across his hand. The axe stopped dead in its path as the sword met with the pole, making Brando and MoY stand face to face. MoY tried to overpower Brando’s parry, but Brando had as strong of a grip as MoY.

Breaking the deadlock, Brando rammed his head into the center of MoY’s face, causing him to fall back with a grunt of pain. Brando hopped towards MoY, but the only contact that was made was MoY’s foot straight into Brando’s stomach, causing him to fly back from the force of the kick.

MoY got back up with his axe back in his hands. As he saw Brando get up, he immediately charged forth, head first. Brando didn’t have time to react, and was suddenly lifted off the ground as MoY rushed forth like a locomotive, his shoulder ramming straight into Brando’s chest. Brando flew another twenty feet before stopping. This time he got up more slowly, wincing as he grabbed hold of his sword.

“Want me to just end this?” MoY said with a grin.

“End this?” Brando said, blinking several times before continuing. “By all means!” He bowed forth and pointed his sword straight at MoY. MoY charged forth, his axe already swung back to chop Brando in half. Brando stood still, his sword still pointing straight at MoY.

As MoY swung down, Brando hopped up, timing his jump so landed onto the axe. With another hop, MoY’s axe was pushed down into the ground and Brando soared over MoY’s head.

“Want me to just end this?” Brando said to MoY’s back. The tip of his sword poked into MoY’s back. MoY smiled and looked up into the sky, closing his eyes.

“By all means.” MoY said with an accepting tone. The cannon went off. MoY slid to the ground as Brando pierced straight through MoY’s armor. He turned around just in time to see Nin10mode’s bullet fly right into him, and a second cannon shot went off.

“A bit anticlimactic but…” Nin10mode walked over to Brando and MoY’s bodies, watching as their bodies dissolved like the many others who had before.

He stumbled away, looking up at the sky and not saying anything. It wasn’t long before he collapsed, but when he did, he realized that nothing was moving. There was not even a low breeze, and the grass didn’t move at all. As if everything had frozen in time.

Nin10mode suddenly felt a chilling sensation and was instantly warped. One moment he had been in the frozen plains, now he stood in front of a giant throne. The stone throne was made in the middle of what seemed like a desert. Nin10mode stood in the center of a large circle, where the throne was in front of him and four stone altars that held floating crystals were surrounding him in a square around the edge of the circle.

The crystals had a shining core and each of them was a different color. The one to the left of the throne was orange, the one to the right was green. The left one behind Nin10mode was blue, while the other was purple. No doubt, Nin10mode could tell why each crystal was a different color.

There were stone steps that led up to the enormous throne. Nin10mode estimated that about 6 of him could fit in the throne with ease. Suddenly, he noticed that each of the crystals was flashing brighter. In one final burst of light, beams came from each of the crystals, all of them meeting right above Nin10mode.

Nin10mode watched in amazement as he saw an orb form from the light above him. With one small pop! The beams disappeared and the orb fell into Nin10mode’s hands. It was pure gold and the only thing that was on it was one phrase.

”WINNER OF ARENA 1”

Chapter 9: Out of the Frying Pan…

”Ha ha! I think I win the bet!”

“Oh shut up. We didn’t even bet anything.”

“True as that may be, you all now must live with the thought that I was right.”

“One guess and you suddenly become a seer? That winner could have obviously been different if there was the slightest change.”

“Well then… This next challenge shall determine whether or not they can work together.”

“And when shall we join in? My fingers are itching to pull a trigger.”

“Patience mate. We will have more then enough time for your triggerhappy needs.”

MoY screamed aloud as he woke up. Disoriented, it took MoY a few moments to realize that he was not in the plains anymore. He sat up with a daze and started concentrating on what had happened before.

After he had died, he still had control of his body, but his body was almost completely transparent. He was shocked and confused at what had just happened, but then he saw his own dead body slowly dissolving and realized; he had lost. After watching Nin10mode’s prize, everything had went slowly went black. He realized that he was dreaming, an amazing dream, he knew, but one that he could not recall.

Shifting around, he realized how uncomfortable he was and started checking his surroundings. He was sitting in the mouth of a cave in a vast chain of mountains. He jumped as he heard a sudden snore from behind him. Megamario, Nero, and Alucard were all lying on the ground, sleeping peacefully.

“HEY YO! GET YOUR BUTTS UP!” MoY yelled and kicked Megamario not too lightly on the side. Megamario immediately jerked up and instinctively pointed his blaster straight at MoY. “Whoa, whoa, hey easy now…” said MoY, his hands up in the air.

The tension was high as Nero and Alucard rose slowly to see Megamario’s gun pointing straight at MoY. “Do you want to mess with me?” Megamario said in a low and dangerous voice. MoY held his stare, but didn’t say anything.

“Whoa guys… Calm down now…” Alucard started walking closer, but Megamario gave Alucard a cold stare, stopping him in his tracks. “Hey man, we’re all on the same side!”

“Are we?” Megamario stepped away from MoY and dropped his gun from his side. “Look at us. I doubt we have even been here for more than a day. Yet… We shoot each other without hesitation…”

“Hey man, it’s just a game…” Alucard said quietly.

“Is it?!” He walked outside to relax. MoY considered stopping him and apologizing as he passed, but decided not to. Everyone was quiet as they watched Megamario leave, then Nero spoke up, still sitting on the ground.

“Well? What do we do now?”

MoY opened his mouth, but then suddenly something appeared on his OGE.


TEAM: DESTRUCTORS
GAME: CAPTURE (4 WINS)
SETTING: THE BURNING MOUNTAIN
OBJECTIVE: OBTAIN THE EGG FROM THE TOP OF THE BURNING MOUNTAIN


“IPS,” Moy asked, “What does it mean by ‘4 wins?’”

’All factions are capable of winning, as long as they are able to grab their egg from the top.’

Their egg? And all we have to do it touch it?”

’There are four eggs up top, each colored to represent the team. In order to ‘grab’ the egg, one must hold the top and bottom with each hand.”

“Egg? Seems easy, don’t you think?” Nero stood up and walked to the mouth of the cave. “Especially when your goal is just a few steps away from you.”

MoY and Alucard followed Nero’s gaze. The cave of the mountains was identical to three other mountains, surrounding one that seemed to tower over the rest. They could not see the top; instead finding a pillar of black smoke encircling the summit of the mountain.

“I’d say about… Half an hour? Maybe more?” Nero grinned at them and started looking around for Megamario. MoY and Alucard looked at the other mountains which had a visible black mouth in each of them.

“No doubt that’s where the other factions are…” MoY said, squinting in attempt to find any movement. The mountains were too far to detect any movement though.

“Doesn’t look like we’ll find them until we get closer to the mountain top.” Alucard said absentmindedly, watching as Nero came back with a now calmer Megamario. “Well then… Shall we?” Alucard gestured at MoY, and they all walked downwards the steep slope together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“You know, these teams were chosen quite oddly.”

“Oh, shove it Kim. We’ve been listening to you talk to yourself for five minutes now. Frankly, I’ve wanted to pull my hair out since minute one.”

“Oh please Buff; I know how much you love my voice.” Kim said with a grin, standing on a rock and watching as Buff hopped down from a few feet above. “Anyways, as I was saying, don’t you think that some of these factions are unbalanced?”

“It’s not unbalanced when people are skilled enough with them.” Brando popped out from the rock above and hopped down, looking back up as he waited for Ayrayen to come down.

Kim’s eyebrow rose as he listened to Brando. “Well, yes. But even then, if [i]everyone
is equally skilled, then doesn’t that leave it up to the factions?”

“Well… How do you think they are unbalanced?” As Ayrayen hopped down, they started walking farther down the mountain. There was no clear path, but seeing as their destination was the Burning Mountain, all they had to do was go straight. First they would go down their mountain, and then they would go up the Burning one.

“Simple. For one thing, Nightcrashers have NO melee at all.”

“I am pretty sure their speed and pistol covers up for it.”

“True… But if any of us were to get close, they’re screwed.”

“And you are complaining about this… Why?” Buff said with a grin and they all laughed except for Kim, who was still pondering about the factions.

“I still think that there are some overall flaws with the b-“ Kim’s words were stopped as words of the IPS started to ring in all four of their ears.

”Enemy Motion Detected.”

The light mood instantly changed as all of them prepared their guns. They had walked far enough where the mountains had leveled out before ascending to the Burning one. They looked around, checking ever rock they passed.

“Damn… There are too many places to hide!” Kim said, looking upwards at a boulder that was in front of them. Buff nodded to the others and signaled to split up. Brando and Buff went to the left of the boulder while Kim and Ayrayen went to the right. Slowly and quietly, they walked along the path.

Brando and Buff were advancing slowly, then suddenly stopped when they heard an inexplicable crumbling of rocks from ahead. They looked at each other, and then started along even slower. Buff and Brando hugged the wall as they started hearing the sounds of heavy footsteps around the corner. They looked at each other again, and then Brando signaled.

One… Two… Three… NOW! Brando and Buff both went around the corner, their rifles charged and aimed at the source of the sound.

Only to be met by another pair of rifles. The Energy Knights all held their stance for a moment, and then dropped it, adrenaline still rushing through their veins.

“Don’t freaking sneak up on us like that!” Kim said in an annoyed tone.

“Well I’m not the one walking around like an elephant!” Brando retorted, also annoyed.

“Elephant?! Oh yeah right! I could hear your breathing from a mile away!”

Buff got in between them and pushed them away from each other. “Guys, guys. Let’s be a little bit quieter, shall we?” The argument went unfinished and they continued ascending up the mountain at a slow pace. It wasn’t long before Kim spoke.

“Jesus Christ! Can you breathe any louder?” Kim said with an annoyed tone to Brando. This time, instead of an annoyed look, Brando looked genuinely confused.

“I was wondering that as well…” Buff looked at Brando, who rose his arms up resignedly. Kim rolled his eyes and was about to start moving again when a deep growl alarmed all of them.

“I’m pretty sure that wasn’t me.” Brando said, rolling his eyes. Kim ignored the comment as they all pointed their guns at the source of the sound. A small cave that was covered in rocks was in front of them, and even now they could hear the heavy breathing of something from inside.

They all inched closer, not knowing what was inside was making them nervous. A deafening roar was heard and suddenly something large and green bursted out of the cave, splitting a large rock straight in half as it charged by. Rocks flew everywhere and everyone ducked as the saw whatever the thing was rocket by.

As it stopped, they saw what had just appeared. It stood about as tall as them, but shined green. With three deadly claws on the hands and legs and a long sweeping tail, it roared angrily, showing its rows of sharp teeth. It was like a lizard that stood on its hind legs.

”Analyzing…”

“Keep it in one place! We’ll get this thing tracked down before we try anything!” Brando kept his eye on the lizard-like creature.

NAME: BRASS DRAGON
POWERS: QUICK. HARD HEAD. NOXIOUS BREATH.
WEAKNESS: INSIDE OF MOUTH


The Brass Dragon didn’t move, waiting for the other four to take the initiative.

Kim read the words on the OGE, watching the dragon with his other eye. “That’s no dragon I’ve ever seen.”

“It’s four against one. Everybody just split up… We’ll wait for its mouth to open, then aim for it.” In one moment, they all broke up and started firing at the dragon. Four assault rifles fired at the dragon, but all the bullets hit the rock behind the dragon as it sped to the right.

Kim, who was the closest, drew his sword and took a powerful slice to the dragon. The Brass Dragon, quick as a flash, dodged the sword, spinning around and using its tail as a whip, striking Kim in the face. Jumping forward, it charged towards Buff, opening its mouth and firing a cloud towards him.

Buff covered his face instinctively, but the smoke surrounded him and suddenly Buff dropped his hands and looked as if he was in a daze. His eyes were blank, not watching as the Brass Dragon slowly rose its head to strike finish Buff off.

Before it could bring its razor sharp teeth down, Brando hopped onto the Brass Dragon’s scaly back and grabbed hold of its neck. The dragon roared and flailed, attempting to throw off Brando who was clinging off for his dear life.

Finally, the Brass Dragon threw Brando off, making him sail a few feet in the air before landing on the hard ground. It turned its head back to Buff, who was still in a daze. The dragon opened its large mouth, a large roar coming out. Almost with finality, it plunged its head downwards towards Buff.

But Ayrayen’s sword plunged straight into the insides of the dragon’s open mouth. With a bloodcurdling scream, the dragon fell sideways, the sword still gripped by Ayrayen.

Chapter 10: The Being of Fire

”Interesting stage you’ve put these boys on.”

“Isn’t that what you found me for?”

“Hmm… It’s what I was hoping for. That was not one of our requirements.”

“Then tell me, what were your requirements?”

“Oh… Isn’t the fact that you are inquisitive enough?”

“Not inquisitive… More like… Suspicious.”

“Can a friend not trust another friend?”

“Sometimes, it’s easier to trust a stranger then to trust someone you know.”


The top of the Burning Mountain was dark and hot. Smoke always encircled it, for the very top was not lava like a volcano, but it was a ring of fire that encircled the peak. There was only a few parts that weren’t covered in fire, which protected the very top where four colored eggs sat at the top.

The bulky, orange armored Berserkers stood right at the edge of the smoke. They stared at the smoke, not knowing what was past the thick wall of dark smoke. Nero was sticking his arm in and out, checking to make sure it was intact.

“Doesn’t look like there’s anything wrong…,” Nero said, looking upwards at the smoke which touched the sky.

“Yeah… Well I don’t know...,” Moy bit his thumb in consideration, “I mean… It could lead to a cliff, and we wouldn’t be able to figure that out.”

“Well we’ll walk slowly,” Alucard said, grabbing his axe as he stood up from his resting spot.

An idea struck Moy as he saw Alucard holding onto his axe. “Good idea. We can use the axe’s pole as a walking stick.”

“Hopefully the smoke isn’t that thick. I would hate to have to fight in that thick fog…,” Megamario said, looking intently at the smoke.

“I’m expecting more dragons.” Nero said, still massaging the bruise from the Brass Dragon that had charged into him.

“Hmph… We’ll take care of it with ease.” With that, Moy readied his gun and they all stared into the smoke.

“Shall we?” Alucard said with a grin. They set off, Alucard leading with the axe in front, the rest following up in line. Slowly, they ascended the mountain in this fashion.

The smoke was not as thick as they expected, but still thick nonetheless. While the smell did not affect them---probably because of their powerful new bodies---they could only see a few meters ahead of them. Alucard slowly led them up while the rest covered the flanks.

It was only a few minutes before they suddenly bursted out of the smoke, and a light filled their eyes. The sun seemed only a few miles away from them as it glared into their eyes.

They all stood near the top of the peak, which was a crater. Fire surrounded the entire circle, but it wasn’t a natural fire. It was obvious that this was generated fire, created just for the purpose of a wall. The crater itself was extremely large and deep, although they could not see anything else through the fire.

“Well… Now what?” Megamario said, watching as the fire dances.

“We could always walk around,” Moy said, looking both ways. The smoke encircled the ring of fire, so there was no way in telling if anybody else had came yet. “Although it could take a while. There has to be someway to get past.”

As if listening to Moy’s words, the fire suddenly dissipated. They all stared at the fire, and then at the center. At the very bottom of the crater four colored eggs sat on a flattened rock. Blue, orange, green and purple. It was obvious which one was for which.

That’s when Alucard noticed that there were other groups. The circle was surrounded by the factions. All of them stared at each other for a moment. Then Avo bursted down the slope, followed by his teammates. Everyone else followed suit as they charged down, trying to get the egg first.

Brando rose his gun with one hand to fire at the group of Berserkers who were opposite of him, but didn’t even get a shot when an enormous foot slammed down in front of him. The impact threw Brando to the ground, dropping his gun. As he looked up to see what had stopped him, he froze in place.

Barring its teeth, an enormous shining red dragon growled slowly. Everyone stopped, looked up, and awed at the vast size of the dragon. It was on all fours, unlike the Brass one, and had enormous wings. Its long neck craned as it saw all the fighters surrounding it. It covered half the crater, leaving barely any space for the players to back up.

Brando suddenly unfroze as Buff shook him, yelling at him to get up. The dragon opened its enormous mouth, inhaling the air. They all knew what was going to happen.

Fire streamed out of its mouth like it was liquid. A beam of fire striking the spot where Brando and Buff just were, and following them until they finally reached a boulder for cover. They didn’t have to worry about a follow up attack, for the dragon had turned around, swinging its tail at the Berserkers. The tail rose and fell like a guillotine, crushing the rocks and leaving a large imprint on the ground.

At this point, everyone was firing at the dragon, attempting to take it down. The hard red scales of the dragon resisted even the heavy fires of the Destructors blasters. As it covered itself from a Destructor blast with its wings, it started to roar. It rose both legs, standing nearly upward on its hind legs. Then, with another deafening roar, brought its front legs crashing into the ground, shaking the very earth and making everyone stumble.

Without stopping, the dragon dropped its head down and snatched Alucard with its teeth. It then flicked its head up, launching Alucard high into the sky. Alucard, knowing his inevitable fate, aimed his blaster at the dragon’s open mouth and fired as he fell straight into the enormous black hole.

The dragon felt it, the blasts struck his tongue and it flinched in pain. Alucard landed painfully onto the top of the dragon’s head, rolling and falling a dangerous fifty feet to the ground.

“ACE!” Moy said, running towards where Alucard was going to fall. Nero and Megamario watched him and called him to come back, but Moy ignored the calls. The dragon was preoccupied with the berserkers, whom had tried to sneak past the dragon to get the egg. Diving, Moy caught Alucard and hit the ground hard.

He’s unconscious…,’ Moy thought as he saw Alucard’s eyes closed, but chest rising and falling. Not wasting another minute, Moy started running away from the dragon, who had finally noticed him.

The dragon watched as Moy ran away, carrying Alucard in its arms. Slowly, the dragon opened its mouth, inhaling for another big breath of fire. This time, there wasn’t a beam of fire, but instead three fireballs fired in quick succession.

Moy chose that moment to turn around. Seeing the fireballs coming his way, he panicked and tripped. Hitting the hard ground and dropping Alucard, he closed his eyes as he waited for the intense heat to consume him.

BOOM.

A loud explosion was heard behind him. Moy looked up to see Megamario grinning at Moy. “Thought I’d let your ♥♥♥ be burned?” Megamario gave a hand to Moy, while Nero fired at the dragon from a place near cover further away from them. The dragon’s attention was deftly diverted.

They ran over to Nero, who was hiding for cover. Nero watched them calmly as they laid Alucard down. “The other factions are at the other side of the circle… Although I did notice something…” He looked upwards at four figures to the right of them, laying down outside the crater. All four of them had sniper rifles pointing at the dragon.

“They haven’t shot a single bullet yet.” Megamario explained grimly to Moy, who was also watching them now.

“Well… That dragon probably would be able to take it.” Moy said, turning his attention away and going back to Alucard. “Wouldn’t that be the smart thing to do if you were a sniper? Conserve bullets until a weakness is found?” Moy started slapping Alucard, but to no avail. He remained unconscious.

A cannon shot made them all freeze. They had completely forgotten that the cannon were there.

”ZEBTRESLALA TERMINATED.”

They heard the dragon roar and the earth shake. They were quiet for a moment as they listened to the sounds of explosions and gunfire. Nero watched from around the rock, while Megamario watched Moy attempt to wake Alucard up.

“Our goal is to capture the egg,” Megamario said, walking towards the safe point of the rock to watch the Nightcrashers.

“Well then why don’t we just screw the dragon and get the egg? I don’t think all of us have to get it… Just one.”

“Problem is, if we get remotely close to it, that dragon senses it and reacts like a super virus,” Nero spoke quietly, noting that even though the dragon would shoot fire and attempt to crush people with its legs, it never moved too far away from where the eggs were.

“All viruses have a script.” Moy said to Nero. Taking his attention away from Alucard, he watched the dragon roar again as a Berserker shot an aura blast at the dragon’s body. It covered the body with wings, and then roared. They saw the momentary preparation, then it jumped up on its hind legs and came crashing down again.

Everyone was momentarily knocked to the ground again as the entire mountain shook. Then as they recovered, Moy saw the dragon as it lowered its head to bite at its enemies. “I think we’ve found our script. I’ve got a plan.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

”ENEMY ANALYZED.”

NAME: ABRAXIS, BEING OF FIRE
POWERS: TRIPLE FIRE BALL, BEAM OF FIRE, EARTHSHAKER, BURNING MISSILE
WEAKNESS: INSIDE OF MOUTH


“Got ‘em.” Blablob said, his rifle still pointing at the dragon.

“Damn… That took way too long.” Zunar shook his head, not looking through his rifle but instead watching the other factions fight Abraxis.

“Burning Missile? Sounds dangerous…” Nin10mode spoke curiously.

“We have no idea what that does… Probably should taken any chances…” Azn spoke quietly.

They had been lying there since Abraxis had arrived. The plan was to wait until Abraxis’ weakness had at least been revealed. The analysis helped, but they still needed to find a clear shot into the dragon’s mouth.

“If we shoot while it’s charging for a fire blast, you think it will disrupt the blast or just make it go out of control?”

“Either way could work; if it goes out of control, we simply take cover and hope some of the blast hits someone.”

”Well yes… But if it does go out of control, we won’t be any closer to that egg.”

“We could always kill it.”

“I’d rather not test its capabilities.”

“Well then… We just sit here and rot until the dragon has finished us all off.”

“Sounds good Blob… But I’m pretty sure the others have different ideas…” Zunar said, as he watched the Berserkers attempting to sneak past Abraxis again. The dragon snapped towards him and whipped its tail around again.

“Doesn’t look like the Destructors are doing anything…,” Nin10mode pointed towards the boulder which the Destructors hid behind.

“Alright,” Azn said, standing up. “I think we should probably do something, because I’m not growing a beard anytime soon.”

“That’s 'cause your Asian,” Nin10mode said, rolling his eyes.

Azn just nodded and looked at the dragon. “I think our best chance is that two of us get behind the Berserkers and EKs, the other two stay at a point close to the egg.”

Zunar stood up with Azn. “On it. Me and Nin10mode will find the point where it starts attacking. I’m guessing you two will be firing away at the dragon’s mouth?”

“Hmm... We’ll be waiting for you guys.”

“To what?”

“To give us the signal of course.”

“Wait… What?”

Azn raised his eyebrow and then looked at his gun. Nin10mode saw the movement and instantly understood. “You guys are going to shoot it once we’re ready?” He chimed in.

Azn nodded and looked at Nin10mode. “The thing will react in some way, shape and form. Find a safe way to get around it and grab the egg. Remember, you have to get a good grip on the top and bottom.”

“And… What if we both die in some sort of way?” Zunar said, now scratching his chin in thought. Azn turned to Zunar with a deadpan expression.

“Well… Then you die. What of it?”

“Not the most well thought out plan…”

“It’s not supposed to be. It’s supposed to be the quickest. We wait any longer and they’ll have the eggs. Now… Any more complaints? Or shall we try this?”

Chapter 11: Burning Missile of the Sky

”Pitting them against a dragon? Interesting choice Runouw…”

“Thank you. I’m always looking for your approval when I set these stages up.”

“Brr, I can feel the cold just venting off of you. What’s the matter Rob?”

“I don’t believe I said you were allowed to address me by my real name.”

“And I don’t believe I need permission now, do I?”

“Well then, Matthews, does that mean I can address you by your real name?”

“Of course not.”

“As I thought. The identity of a citizen is not as important as its guards.”

“Citizen? Hiding in a house conducting world changing experiments is not what a citizen does.”

“Well… Then what have I been for the past eighteen years?”

“An alien, of course. Born out of the stomach, with no belly button. You survived by eating your mother’s flesh.”

“I don’t recall. But, of course, the Army has probably seen and done many odd things and not spoken about it to the public.”

“Right, right. Government conspiracy, Area 51, and Hollywood Movies.”

“I don’t see you denying it.”


Avo stumbled to the ground as the earth shook heavily. He struggled to stand up as the ground still shook beneath him. Then he felt a chill go up his back, and instinctively jumped to the right, narrowly missing the dragon’s mouth as it speared through the ground where he just was.

He gasped for breath as he realized he had been seconds away from being crushed. The dragon didn’t continue attacking Avo though. Avo started running towards TBG and 24murph as the dragon swung around to meet Zunar and Nin10mode who were coming too close for its comfort.

Avo looked at both of them, who were hiding behind a low rock, raising their heads occasionally to check on the dragon. Right next to them stood four men in green, all hiding behind the long strip of rock as well.

They had made a sort of unspoken treaty when they realized their enemy was not each other. Avo grimaced uncomfortably as he saw Kim in deep conversation with the other members. The memory of his claw piercing through Kim was still fresh in his mind.

They heard and felt another explosion, this time farther away. Everyone ducked instinctively, although nothing happened. Avo chanced a peak over the rocks, seeing the enormous dragon breathing heavily, but relaxed. It didn’t seem like anyone was near it anymore.

The silence was unbearable. Everyone watched Abraxis, not knowing what to do next. Then suddenly, a voice from behind him made everyone turn.

“YEE-HAW!” MoY stood behind them, hopping forward over their crouched heads and firing a shot straight at Abraxis’ side. The thick scaled wings flapped forward and met the shot, the explosion being absorbed. They watched as MoY ran forward, suddenly stopping and waving his arms up in the air as the dragon roared angrily.

“What the hell is he thinking?” Avo watched in shock.

TBG grinned, slightly amused. “Me thinks the boy has lost it.”

They watched the familiar pause as Abraxis prepared its Earthshaker. They all ducked as the dragon roared again, bringing its two feet down and crushing the ground under him.

MoY dropped to the ground instantly from the move, and before he could react, Abraxis lunged forward and grabbed MoY, throwing him high into the air. Everyone watched as MoY reached the apex of his throw, then slowly descend towards the dragon’s open mouth.

Azn and Blablob watched as MoY was thrown high into the air from a small position behind the Berserkers and EKs, hidden from sight. Blablob was the one who noticed the axe in MoY’s hand.

“HEY ABRAXIS! SUCK ON THIS!” MoY dived straight into the dragon’s mouth, his axe beginning a downwards arc.

The dragon snapped its mouth shut as MoY entered. It relaxed for a few seconds, then suddenly jerked violently, screaming and roaring as MoY’s axe carved a line straight down Abraxis’s tongue.

Suddenly, Nero, Megamario, and Alucard burst out of their hiding spots, charging as fast as they can towards Abraxis. Realizing what they were doing, Avo heard Buff yell something out, and all the Energy Knights charged forth.

The cannon shot had fired already, but Abraxis was still in pain, thrashing its head around while roaring. The dragon started slamming the ground, shooting fire balls randomly. The Energy Knights jumped backwards as one headed their way, while the Burst Berserkers started towards the dragon too.

They didn’t go a few steps before they heard a bell ringing in the sky. Alucard’s hands were on the top and bottom of an orange egg, directly under Abraxis. Everyone stopped in place as they watched Alucard and the other Destructors start to glow, and then suddenly disappear with a flash.

They looked at the spots where they were, but couldn’t get more time because at that moment, Abraxis roared angrily. In a flash it had swept its tail and caught Ayrayen by surprise, launching him head first into a boulder where he crumpled in a heap, the cannon shot firing for him.

They all started retreating, but the dragon crouched down and roared at them again. Without another moment, it hopped into the air, flapping its wings high into the sky until the smoke had swallowed him up.

They looked upwards for a moment, and then at the unprotected eggs which laid there.

“GET IT!” TBG yelled and him, 24murph, and Kim sprinted forward.

Avo watched them and was about to follow along when suddenly his instincts stopped him. ’Burning Missile…’ The word went through his mind in a flash.

“WAIT!” Avo yelled, but couldn’t be heard as the three were already too far. They ran quickly, closing the gap between them and the eggs. Only a few seconds more before they reached them…

Then, a roar turned all their attentions upwards. It happened in only a few seconds. Abraxis burst out of the smoke, its wings folded in. Like a bullet, it rocketed towards the ground like a meteor, with fire surrounding its head. Without warning, the dragon dived straight into the mountain, straight where TBG, 24murph, and Kim were only seconds away from victory.

The three cannon shots couldn’t have been heard from the devastating crash. Everyone flew away from the crash point, debris flying everywhere. The clouds of dust made from the crash made everything even harder to see, Nin10mode and Zunar had flown the farthest away, as they had been the closest to the crash site.

Under heavy crushed rocks, Nin10mode slowly rose from where he laid. He was sore all over, but surprised that he was still alive. If that had been his regular body, Nin10mode knew that he wouldn’t be alive. ’Wow… How did Runouw create this?’

His mind was taken back to the game when he heard a yell for help. Zunar was on the ground, further away from him. A large rock had fallen over Zunar’s legs, and he couldn’t move it off.

Nin10mode struggled, but eventually, he was able to push the rock off of Zunar. He was surprised again when he saw that neither blood, nor anything was torn off of Zunar’s legs. His legs were completely unscathed, even though they had just been crushed by rocks just a few minutes ago.

“You okay?” Nin10mode said, still inspecting him. Zunar grunted, but didn’t say anything. His face was in pain, but he seemed to be able to stand with support.

“Looks like I’m fine… I’m hurt a bit, but... I can walk.” He walked for a few steps and then stumbled. Nin10mode caught him before he fell, a look of concern clearly on his face.

“You sure you don’t need to rest?”

Zunar looked up at Nin10mode and grinned. “I’m all right. After all, it’s only a game.”




Blablob blinked his eyes several times and surveyed the area. The dust still covered the entire mountain, becoming so thick that even Abraxis was not visible. Blablob looked around nervously. He knew that he wasn’t near the dragon, but just not being able to see made him paranoid.

“Blob?” A voice came from behind him and Blablob jumped. Spinning around, he pointed his rifle straight towards Avo. “Easy!” Avo yelled out, raising his claws in the air.

“What the hell?! I oughtta shoot you right now!” Blablob said angrily, not lowering his gun.

“Hey! I’m not your enemy!” Avo yelled, stepping forward. Blablob pressed the gun into Avo’s chest, but he wasn’t fazed. “Now is not the time.” He growled the last words. Blablob held his gaze, and then dropped it.

“Fine… I wouldn’t feel good shooting you now anyway…” Blablob turned around and walked over to the edge of the boulder. “You’re the last one left… Again.” He scanned the dust cloud, which had started to settle. In its place, he saw the top of the enormous dragon’s head. The crater must have been extremely deep, to have covered Abraxis’ entire head.

Avo walked next to Blablob and saw the dragon. “It’s not my fault. Anybody could have been lured by the dragon’s attack.”

Blablob turned towards Avo and raised his eyebrow. “Then why didn’t you?” Avo gave a gesture of defeat and walked away. The dragon’s roaring made Avo turn around.

It dived back into the layer of clouds and they heard a crushing sound as its head appeared to hit something. More roaring continued, but nothing else could be heard except for the heavy stomps of the dragon.

The silence was long, but neither of them had anything to say. Finally, Blablob broke the silence. “Well this has been fun.” He hopped down the rock and into the thin dust cloud. “But… I think I’d rather go join my teammates.” He emphasized his last word and walked away, ignoring Avo’s offended look.

’Jeez, what’s gone over him?’ Avo shook the thought away as he watched Blablob’s back disappear into the clouds. In the short amount of time they were here, everyone seemed to have separated. He thought of the ones who were currently dead, and the ones who had won. What were they doing right now?

His thoughts were interrupted as a fireball came hurtling his way. Dodging it by barely an inch, he felt the intensity of the heat as it past him and went into the black wall of smoke. He gasped a surprised, then, with a moment of hesitation, decided now would be the best time to stay back and watch.




Brando took a moment to check his fire. He watched the pillar with intensity, keeping his rifle pointed straight at the left of the rock. His eyes strained as he tried to find movement behind the rock. The silence was unbearable, making Brando nearly jump when he heard a sneeze from the left of him break the silence.

He smacked Buff with the back of his right hand, keeping his left hand on the gun. “What the hell?!” Brando whispered angrily, chancing a glance at Buff before turning his eyes back at the rock.

“Sorry!” Buff whispered back with equal anger. “When a man’s gotta sneeze… Well, stop being a pansy!”

Brando shook his head in exasperation, looking up as he heard a low grumble sound. Low, yet it vibrated the ground, which in turn shook his entire body. He looked around, pointing his gun upwards where he had heard the sound. “What the-“

His words were cut off as Nin10mode spun out into the open from the rock he had been hiding behind. His rifle pointed straight at Brando, but before he could even take aim, the enormous foot of Abraxis smashed straight in between where Nin10mode and Zunar had been hiding and where Brando and Buff were. All of them flew away from the dragon, making them scramble back on their feet.

“I thought we were outside its attack range!” Nin10mode said as he started running around the dragon. Zunar kept up with him, looking back to make sure the dragon wasn’t turning onto them.

“I thought so too… I guess his attack range increased when the egg was grabbed,” Zunar spoke in deep thought. He turned back and suddenly dived towards Nin10mode, grabbing him by the leg and pulling him down with himself. Zunar dived just in time, as a large tail swept straight over where they had been a few seconds ago. The huge dragon roared, somewhere behind them, but suddenly the roar was cut off as he heard two bullet shots crack through the air almost simultaneously.

Nin10mode and Zunar looked at each other for a brief second, understanding what each other was thinking. The dragon’s tail sweep had cleared the area of anymore smoke, and the dragon’s eggs laid unprotected, a long run away from both it and the two Nightcrashers.

Abraxis was thrashing and out of control. It fired everywhere, hitting rocks and shooting into the air. Brando and Buff were no where to be seen, but Zunar did not take too much time to check, as they were heading straight for the egg. At only one hundred feet, the egg was nearly in their hands.

Then three intense fireballs headed straight for them! The dragon was still in pain, but its initial blinding pain subsided, the dragon was able to fire three shots at sight when it saw the enemies dangerously close to its eggs.

The two hopped backwards to dodge the fireballs, one striking straight in front of them, but the others hitting further away from them. Zunar gestured at Nin10mode to go one side while Zunar went the other, around the pillar of fire that burned from the fire ball. Nin10mode, view obscured, had ran to the side blocked by the dragon, while Zunar had ran out into the open. He knew that Zunar was giving Nin10mode the few precious seconds needed to get the egg.

He past the pillar of fire, running still straight to the egg. Zunar was running at an angle to where he stood in front of the eggs from Abraxis’ point of view. The decoy was obvious, yet Abraxis still fell for it, breathing in and firing straight at Zunar. He didn’t attempt to dodge the shot, instead standing straight and proud. Zunar’s cannon shot was followed seconds after by the bell that had rang only once before. The Bell for Victory.

Chapter 12 and more...

*Explodes.*

Whoa, dude! Now that was a twist I didn't see coming. And even more importantly, I'M IN THE STORY!!!! W00T! Though I haven't quite deducted what my role is, though I have a hunch…

So yeah, this is really quite good. Now perhaps we might see this story going somewhere! Grammar's still a little shaky, but still cleanly written and an engaging story. And I see that despite me not being here to harass you about getting another chapter out by Monday, you managed it anyway…you make me proud. Now, get writin' on the next one boi! :P

Thanks for the feedback... : D Now... I have posted Chapter 8 at 12:30 GMT, Friday. Now... I will say that the First Arena ends, so... Go read the story! Because there is a little special event here...

You see, I realized that it's important that there should be nothing too confusing about the VAGs, which I bet there will be! So, this Monday, instead of a chapter, (and this will probably make you all a bit sad...) I will be posting a summary about each faction as well as the VAGs! That's not all, because that would be a bit boring, >_> So, I am allowing each user to ask THREE, count it, THREE questions about anything they are wondering about in the VAGs. They will be answered next Friday by none other then the trustful IPS! Think long and hard about these questions. For this is...

Question Intermission with the IPS

You, in Chapter 8, wrote:When he was only a few feet away, Avo hopped into the air and landed right on Avo…

Good fight, I didn't know that you can jump and land on yourself. ;)

This is really quite good! You have set this story up well by introducing how the game works by playing it once through. Now hopefully as you proceed you'll start to change things up. Grammar's still a little shaky, but it's easy to read, which is good.

Now, my three questions:

1. Is there some hidden meaning behind these games, and if so what is it?
2. Who is the Colonel and what is his role in the story?
3. What is my character's role in the story? (I'm worried that this will answer the second question and that I may be wasting a question, but oh well.)

If I had a fourth I'd ask about the mysterious man in the mountains (catch that alliteration?), but alas, I don't. Anyway, I eagerly await the answers.

GODDANGIT! NO!

Mah questions

1. Will Brando, Moy, Nin10mode and Avo be the main characters of the story?

(2. Only if 1 is a yes) If so, why did you choose these four?

(other 2. Just in case) Why is there little character development?

3. What are the mods doing?

A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.
