Season 2 Episode 21

The New Members with bad blood/Wind Blows and the Waters Rises

And so the sky was dark and the fire roars like no other in the galaxy! Let the fire rage and burn like for the lord and savior that those who follow may place their hope in to resurate. However to their full surprise they shall be sent to servitude and forever become nothing but a waste to their lord.
“So what’s this announcement Ruby called us for?” I asked at a very needed but still dangerous volcano.
“I don’t but Ruby did mention that all of us except you and Shaddoll would remember one of them.” Rider said.
“Do you guys know anyone before we arrive to fill out your roster?” Shaddoll asked curiously.
“No, not really anyone well except him but….” Nightingale said silently then got a little sad but then was relieved thanks to Shaddoll. (More sadness after the overwhelming sadness in the last episode that hit hard even with the cheerful surprise at the end of said episode) After a couple of weeks since the battle with the mirealer gems Shaddoll and Nightingale became like best friends. But suddenly….
“So you guys do remember me!” ??? shouted with a cool volcanic intro. Why can’t we have that? Being familiar with that voice Sky, Rider, Wire and Nightingale looked up to see someone they thought they couldn’t see again. This dude looked like a mix of magma and Infernape except there is no golden armor or looking like Son Goku. He just wears the armor Infernape does just with the color of fire and he wears gauntlets that plus this dude is NOT A MONKEY!!
“Incredible but how are you-” Rider got cut off by someone unknown.
“It’s because he is not as weak as you all.” ??? said sitting on a rock really close to the volcano.
“Who are you?” I asked, confusedly about what’s going on.
“I’m Braziel and you’re my replacement!” Braziel said, looking at me angrily.
“Please…..I know we have our problems but please…..don’t include Alex in this he’s been through too much.” Nightingale said trying to stop a fight that is VERY MUCH NOT NEEDED!!! I charred myself up with electricity and Braziel fired himself up.
“Calm down Braziel, we don’t need any injuries like back then.” Ruby said, stopping the epic throwdown that was about to concur.
“So who’s that guy?” I asked, pointing at the water and space humanoid entity holding a trident that looks like Poseidon’s trident.
“Aquias the son of Astroth.” Aquias said, holding a trident right in front of my face. My eyes widened as I couldn’t believe how fast he was and it looked like he was gonna pierce me with that trident but thankfully Sky was there to block it although he looked or should I say felt different. (Fun fact the beyblade series Quadstrike intro has the words ‘fire burns, lighting strikes, wind blows and the water rise.’ how poetic and convenient)
“You’re the Astroth’s SON?!” Sky asked angrily, using his sword to stop Aquias’ trident.
“Woah SKY calm down!” Wire said and with the help of me and Ride we tried to hold him back. Sky then went on about if Aquias would try to betray us since Aquias is Astroth’s son but then…..
“Don’t you even dare compare me to that disgrace of a father!!!!!” Aquias said, shocking everyone except Ruby doesn’t look like the best relationship this dude got. First we have a crazy robokid, an emo but getting better Raven, a serious sky knight, some strict kaman rider and now we have a molten dude with a 5-year grudge and a guy with daddy issues great just great.
“Ok now everyone, we should behave better than this.” Rider said being the voice of reason. (If that means getting slaughtered, probably by kids of the hyokugaten.) Now I wish to be home and this is why.
“Enough all of you!! I know there is some bad blood all around but that is why I paired you all up with each other to show that no matter what grudge you all had in the past you can still prevail.” Ruby said, looking at us as if we were like the avengers or some kind of ragtag team. Guess that means we’re supposed to be an example for future generations.
“So now what?” Shaddoll asked curiously on how this team would work.
“In the meantime get to know each other better while I find a mission for you.” Ruby said. The whole atmosphere fell into nervous tension and a bit of fear knowing that a rough fight was about to occur at any moment.
“So yea um what made you all join us?” I asked nervously.
“For me mostly about revenge but for him I have no idea.” Braziel said. We chatted for a while and guess what Braziel was like me, a cheerful kid who had a big dream but then in a mission Braziel ended up betrayed by the ones he held so dear.
“I met Braziel as he was on the verge of death and after talking a little while we trained together then became teammates to each other.” Aquias said.
“I’m so sorry about that. I can see why you thought I would be a replacement but I never knew most of this……” I said.
“Whatever. What’s done is done.” Braziel said. Me Aquaias and Braziel chatted for a while.
“Hey Braziel. I want to say we’re sorry about what happened 5 years ago.” Nightingale apologies. Braziel laughed like a menace scaring Nightingale and the rest a little well except me, Aquias, and Shaddoll.
“Hahaha you’re sorry?! SORRY?!? SORRY?!?!?!?!? I will never forgive you traitors!!!!!!!” Braziel said in rage, getting a flashback of his past. Tears of lava fell from his eyes as he broke down a little. Luckily Aquias managed to calm Braziel down. I guess whatever Nightingale and the rest of the crew did really broke him.
“What did you do to cause something like this?” I asked. They explained how they were cheerful because of Braziels personality but at one mission it all went south. During said mission it was all going well but then they were underneath a building that was collapsing and there was no time to save Braziel so they ended up leaving him alone to die….
“You left him there all alone?! There was always another way you could have found one!!!” Shaddoll said angrily.
“There was no time no other way and it is not as if we didn’t have any feelings either!!” Wire tried to defend herself and her team.
“We know what we did was wrong and unjust but please see we’re trying to make amends for what happened in the past!!” Rider said. This led into a huge argument that got us literally nowhere.
“Hey Alex, what’s your stage of thinking now after hearing this?” Aquias asked. I fell silent as I thought about my days on earth thinking of how selfish and arrogant I was.
“Well I do know what it’s like to leave your friends in the dust but later on they forgave me. Yes, what Nightingale and the others did was with no doubt wrong but you should learn to forgive and forget I guess.” I said. The pain of having the loss of friends and family
“Well we can’t all be like you huh?” Braziel asked.
“Please Alex has nothing to do with this.” Nightingale said but Braziel claims I have something to do with this the moment I joined the team.
“Enough! I hoped when I returned you all would be fine but I guessed wrong. Nonetheless I have a mission for all of you it’s * on planet Techoulay.” Ruby said. From a plane out of nowhere along with Ruby herself. The coordinates were on the plane. As we entered we would get nothing but silence. I honestly hope something positive happens but we don’t really get anything in life.
“So Aquias how was it being well you know?” I asked, hoping to change the mood around the stadium.
“Well being the son of the villain was annoying with what others thought of me but it didn’t matter to me as long as I have my parents unfortunately it all went on one bad day.” Aquais said, going into a depressed tone. He explained how he lost his mom and his dad started to neglect him. So much that it was as if Aquias dad didn’t even care about him. I feel bad for Aquias and maybe even Sky by the looks of his face.
“I’m sorry you had to go through that.” Rider said in an apologetic tone. Then Aquias talked about how he met Braziel when Braziel was on the brink of death. So he helped him out and trained together.
“Well we’re about to make our destination so can we all just work together please?” I asked. As the door opened up we were greeted by a general of some sort. Then he told us about the mission: Basically to keep an eye on some briefcases and such. He said they had important documents, files, etc. It all went well but then a few bandits attacked us out of nowhere and we were in a building that was fitting.
Getting ambushed by these cyber ninjas we could still hold our own despite them having cheating futuristic weapons. These ninjas had guns, laser cannons, grenades and freaking rocket launchers of all things like how and who gave them that stuff. In the middle of the fighting, Sky unexpectedly attacks Aquias out of nowhere.
Then later on all of the cyber ninjas just suddenly left until we realized that the briefcase was missing. Meanwhile Sky was still fighting Aquias with hate oozing out of him. Rider, Wire and I were trying to prevent the battle before it escalated to drastic measures.
“Sky! Calm down! Please!” Wire said, trying to hold Sky back with all her might.
“Dude I know he’s Astroth’s kid but you can’t take your anger out on him!!” I said, helping Wire out (I think). Thankfully we managed to stop them before we would enter a slaughterhouse.
“So what the harpo is going on with you?!” Aquias asked in an angered tone. A moment of silence later. Sky didn’t even know what he was thinking, only what his heart says. (Harpo: Heck a word to say what is wrong with someone)
“Okay enough moping around we some time before this mission is a failure so let’s find the files and bring them back.” Braziel said and our morale did not get a boost one bit. Fortunately Shaddoll placed some kind of teleportation star on a few of the files to be careful.
“Seriously?!” I asked surprisingly. Now I wonder how far in the future she can see.
“Indeed you did say prepare for anything for this mission right?” Shaddoll asked kindly.
We ran or should I say rode a bus off because taxi’s can’t fit like 7 people or 6 if you count Shaddoll as just a shadow. The entire ride was just awkward the whole time so it was annoyingly weird. Though Wire and Blaziel lightened up our mood a bit. And guess what Blaziel managed to forgive Nightingale, Sky, Rider and Wire well he forgave them a little so that’s a start right? Finally we managed to reach an abandoned bunker.
“So what’s the plan captain?” Aquias asked, still mad about what happened earlier. The atmosphere was silent.
“Obviously we need a distraction so we need to attract them with something loud.” Sky said then we all looked at each other then at Wire then back at each other.
“Why are you guys looking at me like that?!” Wire asked, scared as she knew what her role was.
“Don’t worry we’ll be right with you.” Braziel said in a defeated tone. He puts an arm on Rider’s shoulder and Rider realizes what will happen next.
As the guards stood in their rightful positions. Wire, Rider and Blaziel jumped up and jumped the guards causing some chaos and attracting so many soldiers in and outside of the bunker following the chaotic trio all around the abandoned city. (yes the location in a ruined city because it seems like a clever spot ok please don’t judge me 😃)
The second squad: Me, Shaddoll, Nightingale, Sky and Aquias. Entered the bunker in disguise to get the files but in the end there was STILL AN ARMY WAITING TO AMBUSH US!!!! Guess you can say they were among us! (Please let me have this) We got hit from all sides front, back, left, right you name it. Thankfully we managed to get some cover thanks to some crates but it won’t last long.
In a matter of seconds Aquias was about to be shot down until Sky cam e in and blocked the shot but in return Sky got blasted pretty hard in the process.
“Sky?” Aquias asked, surprised by what Sky did. Aquias called for cover so Shaddoll cloned herself to buy us some time.
“Can you help him?!” I asked concerningly towards Nightingale. She said she could but it’ll take some time. Knowing what to do Aquias raised his trident and powered up and then he sprayed a lot of water that hurt badly knocking them out but then in a flash Aquias passed out probably due to exhaustion from the overuse of power. (Heh sprayed and water nice)
“Hey wake up kiddo! You can’t leave your team now like this can you?” ??? asked, Sky opened his eyes. What he saw was a white void creepy but at the same time it felt peaceful and had a feel that could make any relaxed and ok. No stress, no injuries, nothing, just peace and warmth. Sky looked around wondering where he was and what he saw made him think he could never see again.
“Father?!” Sky asked in a shocked manner. As he saw a version of himself only slightly older and more seasoned in battle. Sky broke down in tears as he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
“Thought you wouldn’t see me again?” Sky’s father asked. The 2 of them talked for a bit getting to know the updates of one another.
“I never thought I’d see you again.” Sky said silently.
“I know my son but unfortunately our time is limited but let me tell you this. Don’t take your anger out on those who are close to one’s relationship to the ones who hurt the ones you care so much instead accept them.” Skye’s father said as he was slowly disappearing.
“Is it time?” Sky asked in a sad tone.
“I’m afraid so, my son but I will tell you this. I’ve never been so proud of you as you are now.” Skye’s father said. The ancient wind warrior disappeared and Sky closed his eyes pleased.
“You know that you just wasted your chance right?” ??? asked.
“Yes I do but I’m confident that this universe doesn’t need me anymore.” Sky’s father said confidently. Sky opened his eyes as he saw the rest of his team waiting for him. The moment we saw him we hugged him relieved.
“Aquias I-I’m apologize about my behavior back there if you could, we would be honored if you officially joined our team.” Sky said as he saw Aquias on a bed right next to him. This surprised him as Aquias thought Sky would reject him.
“It would be my honor, Sky.” Aquias responded. Sky then asked what happened to the mission. We smiled then explained that all it was just a test to see what we could do with all of that bad blood around and we passed. Then best of all we apparently earned these new cool badges that means we moved up the ranks or something.
Braziel walked out of the room as he saw all of us having the time of our life and that gave him flashbacks of his younger days back in the ISP when it was just him, Nightingale, Sky, Rider and Wire. A few hours later Aquias and Sky were commissioned out of the hospital. Aquias is now in a dead alleyway for some reason then talks to someone that was digital.
“Phase 1 has been completed master. Moving on to phase 2.” Aquias said to his watch or wrist com. The digital being then cackled as he then knew how everything would play out now.

Season 2 Episode 1 The Discovery

The dark sky was calm, the stars shining bright, the sun to all, seemed to be normal in life until…
“UHHH Why are we even out here?” Hidden Wire complained as if this ride was a waste of time.
”We’re just here to do reconnaissance Wire, nothing more than that and we were chosen because we’re the closest to that explosion.“ Sky Armor replied, annoyed while piloting a plane in space navigating through fields of asteroids and junkyards of debris.
“Yeah that is true and you can’t deny it. Right Nightingale?” Power Rider said siding with Sky Armor and turning to Nightingale sitting in the copilot seat. Nightingale nodded, causing Hidden Wire to pout. The four silently looked around, finding nothing and were about to head back to their base until…
“HEY GUYS! I FOUND SOMETHING!“ Hidden Wire shouted.
“If it’s an asteroid then we’re heading back in an instant.“ Sky Armor said.
“No she’s not lying this time.” Power rider said, looking at her direction surprised. Sky Armor turned the ship towards the direction of Power Riders and Hidden Wires so did Nightbird and they were surprised beyond their imagination.
“Impossible.” Sky Armor said, amazed at what he’s seeing. A human male, looking about 14 years old with his acne covered face, floating in deep space wearing a strange watch on his right arm, holding a sword on his left, plain clothes by human standards like under armor somehow still breathing while looking asleep. How is this possible? A human surviving in space that’s impossible! The four crewmates tried rubbing their eyes to make sure they were seeing this correctly and they were.
“What should we do?” Hidden Wire asked, a bit scared and confused. The rest weren’t scared, but instead waiting for orders.
“According to the orders of the mission we’re to collect anything from the explosion we detected, and by what we’re seeing right now we need to get the boy to a more safe location and then interrogate him.” Sky Armor replied, having a strange feeling coming from him. The team heard him, left the plane, grabbed the boy, and took him into their plane to return to their command center.
A few hours later they arrived at their destination getting compliments from their fellow coworkers. Normally they would just walk to mission control ignoring the compliments but this time they just ran to the infirmary handing the boy to the medics, healing the boy. After a few minutes the head of this command center Ruby Ghost arrived to talk to the team about their recent mission.
“Hello Squad 1 I’d like to know what you found on your trip earlier. Sky, you may debrief.” Ruby Ghost said, looking at Sky Armor. He showed the sword the boy was holding and the boy himself resting on one of the medical beds. Sky Armor told Ruby Ghost about his plan to question him. Ruby Ghost agreed but said to do it in a more kind manner.
A few minutes later. The boy woke up looking around confused as to where he’s at right now. However it seemed like he woke in some kind of first aid station
“Uhh where am I?” The boy asked, looking at his surroundings, and then looking down at himself.
“Welcome to ISP Station 1 young one. If possible I would like to know your name.” Ruby Ghost said stood in front of him in an instant, smiling.
The boy jumped and got to a battle stance preparing himself for a fight.
“Look I have no idea who you are or what you are but if you’re one of the Malware’s goons I’m not holding back.” The boy said.
“I can tell you’re scared, well who wouldn’t be based on my appearance, but don’t worry I won’t hurt you, I just want to talk, I promise.” Ruby Ghost said. The boy walked back nervously, wondering if he could trust her or not. Outside, behind a window, the squadron who brought the boy here were watching the interrogation.
“The kid’s not cooperating. Maybe we should intervene, Captain?” Power Rider asked.
“I agree, but we should continue watching.Just in case we should prepare if anything goes wrong.” Sky Rider replied wondering why the commander was asking the kid instead of someone else, and trying to shake off his unsettling feeling.
“That watch of yours. I’ve seen it before, in fact I’ve used it myself sometimes. Believe me when I say this, you don’t know the power you carry this instant.” Ruby Ghost said, turning her smile into a serious face.
“She’s right. I do hold some immense power” The Watch said.
“You’re still alive?” The boy asked.
“Of course I’m alive or have you forgotten that if the watch is dead then I’m dead.” The Watch said.
“Oh yeah that’s right.” The boy said. Meanwhile, the ones watching are wondering if he’s talking to himself.
“Anyway back to the point. You have a lot of power, and I can tell you’ve already realized that with all that you have been through. I would like to see what you can do if possible. If you accept, just name one request and I’ll grant it.” Ruby Ghost said.
“The offer seemed too good to be true but I can’t just stay here forever.” The boy thought
“The name’s Alex, and you’re Ruby Ghost, right?” The boy asked, finally lowering his guard, but not too much.
“Yes, but please call me Ruby. What about my offer?” Ruby Ghost replied, while pushing Alex for an answer.
“Fine, let’s dance.” Alex said. As the two walked out of the interrogation room Ruby Ghost smiled and simply told everyone to head to simulator room 15-A. As he walked with Ruby as if he was being on a tour he saw strange entities talking and training in ways he can’t even imagine.
“Where the heck did I end up now Alex? ” Alex thought to himself. Finally after a few minutes of traveling he found himself inside a room 4 projector looking at projectiles standing on each side of the cubicle. As he looked around and noticed that I’m the only one in the room.
“Welcome Alex you’re going to be tested on your skills, choices etc. We’ll begin now.” Ruby said in a nearby control room looking in front of a window with Sky and his team along with some other people which will be introduced later in the series because I’m too lazy to say their names. In a flash the 4 projectors blasted the room turning it into those roman coliseums truly a gladiators arena and what’s a gladiators arena without gladiators. In a flash all kinds of aliens appeared out of the blue and all of them were looking at me with bloodlust.
“Are you serious right now?” Alex asked nervously, smiling.
“Yes, is there any problem?” Ruby asked.
“You little fiend. Alright then let’s go with this guy.” Alex said, dialing the watch selecting an elemental being to transform.
“What’s the kid doing?” Sky Armor asked, confused and few others joined him.
“You’ll just continue watching everyone.” Ruby said to everyone in the observation room as they got confused and watched him as he hit my watch and glowed. They all watched in awe as they had witnessed something no being seen.
“STONESAURUS!!!!!” Alex roared. Beating my chest like a gorilla Ruby Ghost smiled, while everyone in the observation room had no words, just simply shocked.
“Now then let’s-.” Alex got cut off hearing a voice in the back.
“HOLD IT RIGHT THERE HUMAN.” Sky shouted inrage for some reason. I looked back at what was behind hearing something in confusion looking at a person literally made of air and wearing armor.
“Sky. Stop now.” Ruby said to Sky in a gentle but fearful voice.
“BUT THAT HUMAN HAS THE WATCH!!! THERE’S NO WAY A HUMAN DESERVES THAT KIND OF POWER!!!!!” Sky replied, trying to fight back. Alex couldn’t help but hear other voices backing him up. Alex looked back around trying to find if there’s anyone else in the room.
“SILENCE” Ruby shouted leaving nothing but peace and quiet not including the peace.
“Listen I’m well aware this child is a human who possesses a weapon beyond his comprehension but as I’m once a wielder of the same weapon I know that this child has something special and how powerful humans are. So please I ask you all to not engage in a battle with the boy.“ Ruby said. Alex couldn’t understand what just happened but only watched as Ruby and the air elemental left the room. Alex snapped back, got into a battle stance and waited for the gladiator-like aliens to attack.
“Sorry about that. Don’t mind what just happened please.” Ruby asked in a polite manner. I said it’s ok and asked if it’s ok to resume. She said yes in a second I was attacked by the holographic entities. I lost some fights but won most of them. Sometimes I took breaks. After what seemed like an eternity even though it was 3 hours the fighting finally stopped.
“Well done you’ve definitely lasted longer than I thought you would, congratulations. Alright Alex you will receive a half hour break enough for your watch to recharge and when you’re done meet back here for your last challenge.” Ruby said. He nodded ok and walked out without question. The moment he walked out he was bombarded with questions I couldn’t even answer because he couldn’t tell what they’re saying. All he heard was just gibberish. In an instant I ran like sonic. After being chased by like 500 aliens he found himself in a room with what looks like an emo raven from teen titans just sitting in the center of the room silently. I walked out of the room silently.
“Whatever is going on inside your head right now I suggest you clear those thoughts now and focus on your upcoming battle.” Alex turned and saw the wind that was in the training room an hour ago. He nodded, not knowing what he or she said, turned around and walked away from this person.
“Are you mad?” Ruby asked Sky as he turned around.
“Yes I just don’t understand how could a human like him become the bearer of something so powerful.” Sky replied in frustration.
“I see. If you want to know why then I think you’ll find out in a few minutes.” Ruby said.
“What do you mean ma’am?” Sky said, confused.
“Just be patient Sky.” Ruby answer. Sky nodded and walked away. Ruby walked up to me and said that my break time was almost over so she took me back to the training room. Sky nodded and carried on wondering what she meant. A little while later Ruby came and said that it’s time for my last challenge. I nodded and followed her into the maze-like station. A few minutes later I went back inside the huge chamber with Ruby and no one else was in here with me.
“So what’s my final challenge?” Alex asked, looking at Ruby curiously.
“Your last challenge is me.” She replied.
“Huh uh what do you mean?” Alex asked.
“What I mean is that I will be the one who shall take you on young man.” Ruby answered. And the next thing I know the room transformed into New York City. Some people in the control room were curious as to what these buildings were.
“CRIMSON SALAMANDER!” Alex roared as he smacked my watch and turned into the iconic lizard everyone loves. A few minutes later the battle began. He tried to blast her with fireballs but every time he tried to attack she countered with an attack of her own plus it seems like she knows everything about New York. I questioned for a second then shrugged off. I managed to land some hits using my brain and being sneaky. A few minutes later I timed and went back into human form but still I kept fighting trying to get a hit.
“Alex stand down. You can’t fight anymore.” Ruby said, looking down on me from a building.
“It’s over now.” Sky said. Others agreed and started to leave.
“Not…….Not yet……I can still fight.” Alex said, breathing heavily, bleeding and looking up.
“Besides I have one more trick up my sleeve.” Alex stood up, raised my hand up in the air and a thunderstorm appeared, lightning struck me.
“What are you-” Ruby asked but got cut off by a fist. She looked up and saw me in the sky but differently my arms and legs fused together with thunder, the color of my eyes changed from black and white to full on yellow.
“Do you mind giving me an explanation?” Ruby asked, confused on what she’s watching.
“The short explanation is that I gained the power of thunder giving me Thunder mode.” Alex responded then tried to attack her again. She dodged and hid somewhere.
“Quit hiding!” Alex said, trying to look for her. People were in shock to see me taking control of the fight.
“Impossible how is that human in control when he is on the verge of death just a few seconds ago? And against one the Hyokugaten.” Someone asked. A few minutes later Ruby chose to fight me head on with a surprise attack and we clashed heads. Each exchanging blows, taking hits and not even bothering to block or dodge.
“ENOUGH OF THIS!!!!! I THINK IT’S TIME WE END THIS!!!” Alex said.
“I couldn’t agree more.” Ruby responded and just like that they both charged at each other and attacked a kind of final attack and stood on the other side of each other but Alex fell to the floor while she stood strong on a knee.

Season 2 Episode 14 Let the Games Begin! Part 3 Time to Move On

The crowd roared in excitement and anticipation for an epic showdown between elementals in a greater class and a game no one would forget.

“I hope you’re ready to lose!” Incendius shouted, getting the crowd to back him up.
“No, we’re ready to win.” Wire said. The game started with a race and naturally Rider volunteered to go first while Fenix went first for his team.
“Hope you’re ready to lose.” Fenix said, lighting himself up. Rider revved up his boots.
“We shall see.” Rider said, immediately running or skating as the whistle blew. Surprised Fenix ran after Rider with the help of his fire Fenix caught but barely. The amount of laps needed for Rider to win is 3 and right now he’s just finished 2 while Fenix finished 1. To our surprise Rider lost only for the fact that Fenix attacked Rider’s feet and now it was the next game target practice.
“Woah! Now that was some driuty play by Fenix! Fortunately for Fenix’s team there was no penalty but the same can’t be said for Rider, he looks like he’s out of match!” The announcer said, leaving the crowd mad. (Driuty: A move that’s against the rules)
“Sorry guys. I tried my best.” Rider said, angrily.
“So who’s going up?” I asked.
“Nightingale you’re next.” Sky answered.
“Ok don’t worry, I’ll win this round.” Nightingale said to assure us. She sounded confident so it surprised us a little more.
“So is that how you’re gonna win?” Infinis said in a bad tone. It scared his entire team.
“Moving on, who’ll we choose?” Hydrox asked to change the topic.
“Slab you’re going next. Since it’s target practice you’ll be able to handle it.” Infinis said. Now it’s Slab vs Nightingale, Magic vs Earth or rock. Though when the game began it looked like it was an even match but Nightingale went crazy, activating her powers and continuously made portals so she could basically win while stopping Slab from doing anything. Very funny and has got to be definitely cheating but works. When Nightingale walked she was confused as she saw us with a shocked face.
“Something wrong?” Nightingale asked.
“Ok all in favor not to get her mad, say I.” I said snapping back to reality the others quickly agreed and Nightingale was just confused about what happened.
“Moving after that slaughter! The next round will be a contest of cleverness if that last round wasn’t already and our special obstacle course!” The announcer said, as the floor opened up, raising a huge obstacle course filled with all kinds of surprises. Now I’m not even sure if this is a safe game anymore.
“Are you guys sure this is a safe match?!” I ask, frightened.
“When did we say it was a safe round?” Wire asked. Now I’m worried majorly.
“So who are we picking?” I asked. For a moment Sky thought about it hard, going through the options since Rider’s out of commission, Nightingale just went and now there’s me, Sky himself and Wire. At first we thought that Wire was going up but Sky unexpectedly went up.
“You’re going out there?” Nightingale asked, Sky nodded. He told us he’s going to borrow some of my luck whatever that means.
“Looks like they’re sending Sky then who should we pick?” Hydrox asked. Infinis thought about this round really hard. Well it makes sense since this is an important round.
“Incendius you’ll go against him. BUT no underhanded methods, understood!” Infinis said. Incendius nodded and ran to compete quickly. Now it’s wind vs fire, a clash between elementals. Let’s see who wins. As the race began there weren’t any dirty tricks or anything like that except the Incendius was just blasting everything, an effective method I guess but for Sky, his strats were unexpected by keeping a consistent pattern of gliding on his shield like pokemon. Unexpected but effective hey I think I just made a rhyme and with that it was a nice round with some tension.
“Nice work.” Rider said.
“Now there’s the battling round and Alex you’ll be going up.” Sky said confidently. I smiled now joining the fun.
“Darn it!” Incendius said angrily.
“Enough Incendius! The next bout is a battle and I’ll go and you Hydrox get ready.” Infinis said ticked off. Me and Infinis went up but unlike every other round the crowd cheered for Infinis like he’s a hero while I’m just treated as a villain. Annoying to be honest but I shrugged it off.
“Fans really like you huh?” I asked.
“I suppose so, well no matter, there is only one question I have for you. Why?” Infinis asked. I raised my eyebrow confused.
“Why what?” I responded to his question with my own.
“Why would the watch choose you? A human being so fragile yet earns great power why?” Infinis asked but his voice sounded to distort a little.
“So that’s it huh? If you really want to know so badly then fine.” I said in defeat.
“Oh do tell.” Infinis said eagerly, you can tell he’s excited.
“To be honest, I never really wanted this watch and people say it’s a blessing but really it’s kind of like a curse. So if you want to know why it chose me then it’s because I’m not some pig-headed idiot.” I said, hitting the watch and turning into Chrono Racer. Infinis was silent and his expression changed, but now I’m starting to like it a bit.
“I see no matter, then let us begin.” Infinis said as the field changed into some kind of world made clocks or gears. I rushed at with no hesitation at all about to knock him out of bounds but for some reason I saw that I was in the exact same spot before. I tried again but kept getting the same results over and over again. Though a bit confused I quickly realized what was going on Infinis was turning back time.
“Is something wrong?” Infinis asked.
“You, you’ve been turning back time this entire time haven’t you?” I replied.
“Well it seems as though you’ve finally realized it. You’re correct but it doesn’t matter, for I’ll be the victor in this bout and claim what rightfully belongs to me.” Infinis said powering himself up. Now the real fight begins as if it wasn’t beginning in the first place. In a matter of seconds time froze and nothing moved even for a second. I was still able to view what was happening but couldn’t move or do anything. Infinis walked up to me slowly trying to grab my watch and I was frozen in time and couldn’t do anything to stop him.
“Finally I’ll rightfully claim what belongs to me.” Infinis said, reaching for my watch but he couldn’t take it off. Surprised and angered he tried again but found that he couldn’t.
“You wanna know why you can’t take the watch off? The answer is simple: you’re not worthy!” I said finally free from this frozen in time prison and kicking Infinis in the face.
“But how?! How are you free?!?! That’s impossible!” Infinis said as everything was back in time and finally moving.
“Woah!! Looks like the fight’s already begun!!!!” The announcer said as he and the crowd were surprised to see Infinis on the ground with one knee and me standing tall and proud.
“I think it’s time to fix your clock.” I said. Get it time, clock.
“You dare mock me?!” Infinis asked angrily.
“What’s wrong? A human is beating you? Or is it that you’ve realized that the watch doesn’t like you? Well don’t worry it’s not you’re weak I’m just that much better than you.” I said walking towards Infinis like a boss.
“Something is wrong. Alex nevers battles like this, sure he taunts his opponents but this is different.” Nightingale said worriedly.
“I know what you mean but we can’t stop this fight even if we tried and besides I think Alex has had enough of constant belittling from everyone else.” Sky said the others agreed.
“What just happened?!” Slab asked not knowing what happened.
“From what I can tell. Infinis tried to end this fight quickly by stopping time and finishing the human quickly but fell short somehow.” Fenix said curious about what’s going to happen now.
“But how is that human even doing it?! Sure he has the watch but seriously how?!?!” Incendius asked madly.
“Well, well you’re certainly full of surprises are you?” Infinis said, straightening himself up. I got into a battle stance and so did Infinis as he pulled a sword through his chest. I powered up my fist and charged at Infinis, he did the same. Blows were exchanged and both contesters didn’t give up a single inch. No one was holding back, it was clear that the both of them were trying to prove something. That they deserve to be where they are now. After a while I managed to knock him down and walked back tired but as I walked I realized too late that Infinis was still up and stabbed me through the chest.
“You really believed that you could defeat someone like me?” Infinis asked, sounding a bit evil and pulling his sword out. I fell to the ground lifeless as I heard the crowd screaming out his name.
“And the winner of this bout is Infinis!!! So now we’re moving on to the next challenge, wait hold on, what’s he doing?!?” The announcer said surprised as I did everything in my power to get up. Though badly wounded I still managed to keep going.
“But how?!” Infinis asked, amazed at how I’m still standing.
“You wanna know how? It’s simple, I never give up no matter what.” I said, slowly healing but very hurt.
“No matter how hard you try you still won’t beat me!” Infinis shouted but for some reason I laughed. Confused, Infinis asked but my response was probably not what he expected.
“Someone once told me that in a situation like this, don’t worry about limits, just be yourself.” I said powering myself up to the fullest and punching the absolute heck out of Infinis. Then I don’t even know why but I started singing legendary by neffex. If you don’t know it you should go hear it because that’s a good song in my opinion.
“Deep within our souls we can feel there’s something empty we need something more I feel destiny, she tempts me tells me there’s two paths they both have a different ending choose wise and you’ll find that, pain leads to ascending, ‘Til I’m dead and buried deep within a cemetery I will fight never wary I wanna be legendary” I sang, tearing up a bit and charging at the injured Infinis hard though he tried to get the upper hand with his powers but Chrono Racer time abilities prevented him from doing so and eventually he fell down. Surprised, I heard the crowd cheering my name out like I was some hero. Sky and the others ran up to me and hugged me for some reason.
“That was amazing!!!” Wire said, rubbing my head hard.
“Indeed truly one for the book!” Rider said.
“Guess we move on to the finals huh?” I asked, proud.
“Yes, thanks to you.” Sky said as he looked at a room containing Trinity and her team.

TO BE CONTINUED…

Season 2 Episode 25 The Ghost of the Storm

“You’re not going anywhere punk!” I said chasing Aquias down with Braziel, Shaddoll and Sky.
“Apologies but I’m here to meet someone not to talk to you all.” Aquias said running through the storm of raining thunder, hail and fire. Until we managed to cornered him back into a deadend. As we were about to have a 3 on 1 battle someone out of nowhere with a massive scythe like the grim reaper attacked us. Lucky for us we all dodged by the skin of our teeth.
“Who are you?” I asked, not even surprised at this point.
“Well I guess the voice could make you not remember me but Sky you should know who I am.” ??? said.
“You know him?” Braziel asked confusedly. Sky nodded no.
“Alex you and Shaddoll will take on Aquias meanwhile Braziel and I will challenge this new attacker.” Sky said, dashing at this mysterious new player so did Braziel. As our battle raged on, Sky movements were getting slower as he started to remember something or familiarize himself with this new player’s style of fighting. Shaddoll went back in my shadow to rest, then we got a little run over by this guy’s creepy scythe.
“Yo! You alright?!” I asked, a little worried seeing Sky shaking nervously.
“I-It can’t be! F-father?!” Sky asked, thinking of the impossible.
“I’m sorry, what now?” I asked a little confusedly. Oh the family drama, where have I seen that before?
“Oh well you’re right but wrong too.” ??? said cackling like a madman.
“Only one person I know could laugh like that. Ghost Reaper?” I asked shockingly.
“Finally someone recognizes me! Honestly, that took you a while!” Ghost Reaper shouted angrily. Shaddoll asked how I knew him. I quickly explained how Ghost Reaper escaped the watch and went crazy everywhere on earth causing murders and all sorts of crimes.
“One thing I want to know is how on earth did you survive?! Last I remember you were shot into the sun itself?!?!” I asked very much confusedly. Ghost Reaper said that he used everything he had left to bolt out of the capsule but was very weak at the end but then he saw Skye’s father floating around space and then possessed the body and well I think you can guess now.
“You villain!” Sky said, gripping his hand. Ghost Reaper used his death wave attack and knocked us all out in the blink of an eye. When we woke up Aquias and Ghost Reaper were long gone. Sky then shouted in tears while some perfect timing rain.
Later we came back to ISP and gave our report to Ruby and she was surprised to hear that Skye’s father Airendbes was still alive and on the side of evil. Ruby then excused us and told us that we’ll find a way to help as much as we can. I hope we could help because Sky was sad, not like I’ve ever seen him before. Reminds me of when I lost Thunder Knight.
“Hey don’t worry we’ll get him back.” I said comforting Sky in a hallway but I soon realized that it was a mistake I soon regret. Sky took out his sword and tried to stab me through my head. Shaddoll stopped the sword just in time but it was close.
“What do you think you’re doing to him?!” Shaddoll asked angrily. Sky then snapped back into reality, then ran off somewhere. Braziel went after Sky and Shaddoll then checked to see if I was injured in any way but found that I was alright.
“Thank you but I don’t really need this check up.” I said feeling nervous around Shaddoll as she looks through every part of my body. It felt weird ok!
“Nonsense! It is my duty to make sure that my master is unharmed in any way possible and if I can’t even do that task then….” Shaddoll said then felt silent.
“I just need to get home, Shaddoll. I’m just tired.” I smiled and comforted her. Shaddoll nodded and teleported us back into the house. And into my room. As much as I want to know how, I always remember that I live in a universe where ghosts, moving plants and people are made of elements from around the world. That way I can proudly say that anything is possible.
“Alex? You’re back so early?” Nightingale said slowly waking up from a nap.
“Well you see. Babe, there were some problems…..” I said as I was a little scared. Nightingale questioned then Shaddoll explained what happened with Sky and the whole ‘Capture Aquias mission’ obviously this angered Nightingale.
Wire and Rider came back after getting some supplies. Only to find a mad Nightingale ready to kill anything on sight. Me and Shaddoll are trying to hold her back and ask the returning duo to help before Nightingale goes and destroys Sky.
“Hey, we’re back?” Braziel asked confusedly as he saw a squad of us holding Nightingale down. Nightingale then saw Sky, the moment that happened it was at this moment that Sky knew he screwed up big time!
“Stop her!” Rider shouted. Braziel tried to stop Nightingale but soon got sent into the roof. Shaddoll somehow managed to stop her in time and convinced Nightingale to calm down. We questioned how but then found out that Shaddoll and Nightingale are practically best friends. I wondered how but I shrugged it off.
“Alex, I know what I did was wrong. I was in grief and confusion. But please I need your help.” Sky said. I said yes a little nervously as he never asked for help like that.
“But how is he gonna do that?” Shaddoll asked suspiciously. Sky told the plan and it was interesting to say the least.
“You want me to trick him into getting back into the watch and then take over him before he takes over me?” I asked, visibly confused.
“Absolutely not! I will not risk my boyfriend for the sake of your desires! Do you hear me Sky Aridheir!?!?!?” Nightingale asked angrily to make sure she gets her message clear then it led into an argument.
“No, I ask Alex to possess my father!” Sky said. Now that actually sounds like Sky a little.
“Alright! Alright! I’ll do it!” I shouted, stopping the argument. But I have one problem, I don’t have the DNA of Ghost Reaper’s kin.
“I see well then in that case why don’t you use my DNA?” Ruby asked, popping up right behind me. Taking us all by surprise, ok seriously I’ve got to know how Ruby does that.
“How long have you been there?!” Shaddoll asked surprisingly.
Anyway I wanted to know how because I thought Ruby wasn’t a mix of an elemental. But from what we heard Ruby is a mix of elemental: shadow and ghost. (I guess the word ‘ghost’ in her name should’ve said it all) Wire took out a syringe and slowly took out a small bit of Ruby’s DNA then dripped the blood in a tube opened by the watch.
“So are you ready?” Ruby asked. I nodded and hit the watch. My body began to decay well, the skin I mean, I started to become a ghost and then I looked like a grim reaper.
“Ghost Reaper!” I shouted roasting as I pulled out a scythe and sliced a tree in pieces.
“That is one powerful reaper if I have seen one.” Ruby said.
“So where is he?” I asked if I was ready to go.
Meanwhile….. Ghost Reaper and Aquias were causing some trouble in a Froseter the forest planet at some villages. This time we all were going well except Ruby because she has a long line of work to do. To be clear, being a leader of a station on the ISP isn’t just a job, it’s a huge and I mean HUGE responsibility. And no other members of the ISP joined because there are way too many missions.
“So what’s the plan?” Braziel asked.
“We don’t need one. I just need Alex.” Sky said, rushing off. I followed him thinking of how reckless Sky has been doing. The both of us ambushed the two pillagers. Sky and I focused on Ghost Reaper (The bad one). As for Aquias, he was preoccupied with Braziel, Rider and Wire. Shaddoll and Nightingale helped me and Sky in our fight with Ghost Reaper. But Even with 4 people Ghost Reaper (The bad one) still managed to hold his own and countered all of us no matter what we did. It also looked like Ghost Reaper (The bad one) went through some training and got stronger. Guess the last time I bested him may have humbled Ghost Reaper (I think you get it already) a bit and with the help of his new body.
However we waited until it was the right time to spring the possession plan. Ghost Reaper boasted on how he was still the best there ever was. Making it time to become a good version of Ghost Reaper.
“Ghost Reaper!” I shouted. Ghost Reaper (The bad one) gasped and thought of how that happened but composed himself.
“I don;t know how you’ve achieved that form but no matter I shall destroy you first.” Ghost Reaper said getting out of Airendbes body. A battle of the reapers. How’s that Death Wolf? The two reapers clashed both of their scythe’s.
“Father!” I shouted seeing his dad Airendbes fall to the ground breathing heavily.
“Airendbes sir! Don’t fret, you’ll be ok!” Nightingale said healing Airendbes fast for some reason.
“My son … .I’m glad to see you … .but he needs help more than … .me……” Airendbes said coughing. Coming from experience being possessed can take a toll on a person’s body. Sky clenched his fist and grabbed his weapons and charged at the evil Ghost Reaper. Shaddoll quickly followed and the three of us were able to kick his but. Well until he used his trump card and became what looks like a fallen angel.
“Well poop my pants.” I said silently as I actually pooped my pants. Now we were getting destroyed like we were just toys to him.
“Well~ Well~ even with that I still reign supreme over you all and then I’ll be able to take over the rest of the universe!” Ghost Reaper cackled menacingly. A little annoyed I dialed the watch a bit and became Ghost Reaper Battle Mode. Holding 2 scythe’s as if they were sickles. I became more see-through, dark wings soared around my body (Even though I could levitate) my skeleton head went more like the head of a dragon or demon, claws of a Belfire from Beyblade and finally I have legs of a normal human being….. I got you there didn’t I? Be honest.
The reaper rematch began with a clash of monsters going head to head. Both of them were fighting like it was their last fight ever. Everyone watched in awe as they saw some perfect timing lighting as the reaper fought in a battle in Attack on Titan. At one point we were evenly matched until Ghost Reaper (The bad one) knocked both of my scythe’s away and then stabbed me or shoved his scythe through my chest. When Ghost Reaper asked if I had any last words I said.
“You’re going down!” I screamed as I grabbed the bad Ghost Reaper and absorbed him into my chest watch.
“What are you?! No…No! No! Nooooo!” Bad Ghost Reaper shouted as he couldn’t help but get sent into the watch. I went back into my human form and was about to fall to my doom until Shaddoll caught me in time.
“You alright?” Nightingale asked. I woke up looking around to see we’re back at the house in the guest room and saw someone I didn’t see before.
“Who is that?” I asked confusingly.
“Greetings! My name is Airendbes and I would like to thank you for helping my son’s development.” Airendbes thanked me. I had no idea how to respond but only said ‘Your welcome’ like Airendbes was some casual person.
“So what now Sky? Are you gonna quit or will you continue your life here?” Rider asked curiously. Sky looked at all of us and yes Ruby was there too.
“Why should I leave? After all, if it wasn’t for you guys I wouldn’t have been to where I stand today.” Sky said.
“So you gonna lie here or with your old house?” I asked.
“No, because I can’t go back to my house yet.” Sky said, Airendbes asked what Sky meant and he apparently got kicked out of his family’s house for not spending too much time with his mother.
“D-D-Darling! Is that you?!” Nireo asked in tears as she couldn’t believe who she was seeing at this moment.
“Yes my dear it’s me.” Airendbes embraced Nireo hugging her as they haven’t met in over a decade. (I guess that is true if you think about it)
“Are you kisinglhuyp me?” Braziel asked with his mouth wide open. (Kisinglhuyp: Joking, to make a funny remark)
“We’ll have a long talk about this but first let’s celebrate!” Airendbes said proudly. We managed to get Ruby and the Hyokugaten as well as Nireo. And we found out that Nireo and Airendbes were married. Wow Sky really screwed up. Please insert the ‘Are you kidding me face’ meme!
“So you’re dating my daughter? I guess I can accept that.” Miralade said. I was blushing a little and shocked to see how tall this woman is. I swear she’s like 9 ft tall.
“Mother!” Nightingale said in embarrassment.
After some partying everyone decided to leave one by one. Slowly at a time. Until the last bit. Miralade, Nireo and Airendbes. Miralade bid us farewell and gave an embarrassing goodbye. As for Nireo and Airendbes, well….
“So you plan to live with them?” Nireo asked. Sky nodded.
“Well I approve of your decision.” Airendbes said.
“Whatever you plan to do. Just know that I will always be there to support you, my son.” Nireo said. With that Nireo and Airendbes left.
I asked what happened to Aquias. Rider said that Aquias left while everyone else was watching the epic reaper fight. Then Shaddoll asked me how I felt when I absorbed Ghost Reaper back into the watch. All I replied was ok as my eyes shifted to black and white which was weird for me based on what they say but I don’t believe it. I still wonder how we will get Aquias. Now I plan to take a nap as it is LITERARY 3:33 A.M. the cursed time.
“Well night guys!” I yawned and went to my room.
“Wait Alex! Please let me have a look in your head!” Nightingale shouted as I was about to go into my room. I nodded confusedly. Nightingale used her magic and now she was in my mind. Her conscience was in my head but her body is still intact.
“Welcome to my home.” ShadowBolt said, suddenly appearing out of nowhere.
“So you’re the ‘ShadowBolt’ Alex talks about.” Nightingale said.
“Indeed I am and I guess you want to make sure the bad Ghost Reaper is not gonna cause harm?” ShadowBolt asked. Nightingale nodded. ShadowBolt took Nightingale to see Ghost Reaper in a small prison cell doing everything he can to escape and take control.
“If he is in there then why did his eyes change color?” Nightingale asked confusedly.
“That one’s simple when Ghost Reaper was absorbed Alex gained his powers but not all as some would’ve corrupted him. So I took it upon myself to prevent any ability that I believe would infect Alex’s mind.” ShadowBolt explained.
“So you’re the one he cares for? I got to say I’m not impressed.” Ghost Reaper said.
“I won’t allow you to do anything to him no matter how hard you try. Do you understand me?!” Nightingale asked.
“Oh I get the picture but do you?” Ghost Reaper asked.
“What do you mean?” Nightingale asked.
“Oh so you don’t know it? Well let me ask you this, what is his true goal?” Ghost Reaper asked. Nightingale fell silent as she didn’t know what to say because it never occurred to her. What did I want? Despite all the time she spent with me the thought never came to her.
“Cat got your tongue?” ShadowBolt asked.
“It appears so? Well no matter because we all know it except you and the others outside.” Ghost Reaper said cackling. Nightingale demanded to know what it was but Ghost Reaper just taunted her. ShadowBolt couldn’t say because for some reason. It was as if something was holding him back. Like guilt or fear or something.
Nightingale was about to push for the answer more but at the last second when it looked like she was about to finally get some answers. Everything went dark like pitch black. Nightingale couldn’t see a thing and she thought her eyes were closed. After some blinking, Nightingale saw that she was in my room. Nightingale saw me sleeping peacefully. Nightingale thought to herself what the Ghost Reaper said ‘Go find the answer yourself.’
“Alex, I’ve always been asking for help from you. The same thing is said to Sky and everyone else. You’ve always been an inspiration to everyone around but now I want to help. I want to aid you but I can’t unless I know what you are thinking.” Nightingale thought to herself worried about me.
“Nightingale something wrong?” I asked waking up.
“No nothing is wrong my warrior.” Nightingale said.
“Oh I see well if you need something then just call me for help.” I said going back to sleep. Nightingale then thought to herself on what Alex has always wanted but never got. Then it clicked her, most of the time with me. I’ve always looked at a picture that represents my home planet. It was never really to help others or to be an inspiration to new generations. The main goal was to come back home. Nightingale has noticed that everytime I go to my room on the ISP or my room in the house and look at the photo. Sure earth may have some problems but home was still home and we should be grateful for it not be glad to leave it behind. To be sent away from the things held dear without consent or anything. Then you’ll have to change into a new life. I mean sure there were bad times but when there are bad things happening, the good things will always come back to you.
“I wish I could help you. I’m sorry….” Nightingale said silently.

Season 2 Episode 11 The Return of Old Friends

Deep below the surface beasts, monsters and aliens roar. Sometimes in fear, sometimes for dominance. But mostly to be in search of prey or food. Lurking in the shadows as some walk or hide in terror. Tears of pain and sorrow roared through the abyss.

“Incoming!” I shouted, dodging some kind of stone monster trying to pounce on me. Some others followed like the wind warrior Sky.
“Remind me again why we’re here?!” Wire ask, panicking.
“There has been some trouble in these mines so we’re here to halt this trouble.” Sky replied, fending off rock monsters. For a while this horde felt unstoppable and we were running out of options until Nightingale had an idea. Her idea was to cast a spell and temporarily paralyze them for at least a few minutes. Sky agreed and called a new formation, one that focuses on defense but can hit hard like a fortress.
As everything seemed to be going good I noticed a stone monster about to get the pounce on Nightingale, in response I reacted instantly and attacked it as fast as lighting at the same time as Nightingale casted her spell.
“Alex? You said something?” Nightingale asked as she saw me continuously beating the rock fiend that tried to attack Nightingale. Her jaw dropped as she covered her mouth witnessing red lighting leaking out of me with each blow, arms bleed red it was certain that what she saw me right now wasn’t the Alex she knew. After a few more minutes I noticed myself caught by Sky’s and Wire’s arms. They let go, seeing me questioning what happened.
As I looked around and the stone monster laying on the ground lifeless with blood and I looked at my hands after realizing what happened. When we got back Sky said I could head to my room and leave the rest to them. As I got to my room, I got not good flashbacks of when I was back on earth.
“Hello Sky. Where’s Alex?” Ruby asks, slightly confused. Sky explained what happened.
“RUBY!!” ??? said and hugged Ruby.
“Milady can you please stop running so far?” ??? asked slightly out of breath.
“GIve her a break. She has been excited ever since he was found here.” ??? said.
“Alright Iscaris. I thought you were gonna be here in a few more decam.” Ruby said. (Decam: Day a period a time that lasts for 24 hours)
“Well you see I got a break thanks to my brains.” Iscaris said.
“I see but what about you two? Blizzard and Vikarosa?” Ruby asked. They explained the same thing.
“Um if it doesn’t concern us but why are you all here?” Rider asked nervously.
“Oh that’s simple. To see Alex again!” Iscaris, Vikarosa, and Blizzard said at the same time. Sky asked why and what they mean and the three said they have their reasons. They left to find my room after getting information from Ruby, Sky and the others followed curiously.
“Hey Alex, some people came to see you. Can you open the door please?” Rider said, knocking on the door. As I opened the door it surprised me to see some old faces.
“Alright Alex these people are-” Sky was about to introduce the three visitors until I bowed and greeted Iscaris as if she was royalty.
“Greetings your majesty.” I said.
“How do you know her?” Wire ask, slightly confused.
“Well you see~” Iscaris was about to say something but I cut her off.
“She crashed in front of my house.” I said. Sky and others except Vikarosa and Blizzard were confused and laughed a bit.
“What do you mean?” Wire asked, confused as heck. I explained how and why Iscaris and Blizzard got on my planet, me and my friends helping them adjust to life on earth, and liberating their planet.
“Wow there really is more to you than we originally thought huh?” Rider asks, surprised.
“But that doesn’t explain how you know Alex Vikarosa sir could you please explain?” Sky asked, kinder than he usually speaks which is unsettling to be honest. Vikarosa explains his story on why he came to earth and how he and I battle like there was no other.
“SO YOU’RE TELLING ME THAT THE ISCARIS AND BLIZZARD CAME TO YOUR PLANET TO GET YOUR WATCH ONLY TO TEAM UP AND RESCUE THEIR HOME AND VIKAROSA ARRIVED AT YOUR HOME PLUS FOUGHT TO THE DEATH AND WON THEN BECAME HIS RIVAL?!?!?!?” Wire asked, surprised like no other. I swear my ears were ringing like when you ring a bell in a very very uncomfortable situation. I think the entire station heard her.
“First yes and second, can I have some time to FIX MY EARS???” I shouted, having nothing but ringing in my ears. I went back inside my room leaving the others just waiting awkwardly and a few minutes later I came out noticing there being a lot more people than already.
“Alex! Come on, let’s talk inside.” Iscaris said. Dang it seems I really left an impression on her. We went inside my room Blizzard and Vikarosa followed.
“So what have you guys been up to?” I asked, feeling glad to reunite with some good old friends. Iscaris explained how she and Blizzard have been working up the ranks of the hyokugaten after the liberation of their planet but Vikarosa has already been a member before we’ve met and still is due to his skill and strength.
“And when we heard that you’re here of all places we couldn’t wait to see you.” Iscaris said in pure happiness sometimes I forget how she can act like a child but looks like she’s matured and looking brand new with all this armor and looking like champions.
“Wow, that’s cool.” I said I was impressed by their progress.
“But enough about us. How are you? Are the others here?” Isacaris asked eagerly. I looked down a bit sad. Quickly realizing what happened or guessing they tried to calm me down as I slowly tell the story of what happened.
“Wow just wow.” Blizzard said.
“Yea but it’s nice to see you guys again. So Vikarosa is the 3rd, Blizzard’s the 6th and Iscaris is the 4th, huh impressive.” I said changing the subject after the emotional rollercoaster I just had.
“Alright there’s something else isn’t there?” Iscaris asked dead serious I can never escape from her ability to sense others emotions and I still wonder how that works. I explained to them about the chance of Shadowbolt rising from the dead. Iscaris and Blizzard were worried the most while Vikarosa asked who ShadowBolt was.
“Basically what I look like as a villain but thunder mode is on permanently.” I said tiringly.
“Do you still have your sword?” Vikarosa asked.
“Oh yea.” I replied by scrolling through the watch’s inventory taking out the thunder blade.
“Alex? Can I come in?” Nightingale asked, knocking on the door. As I let her in she was still surprised that I’m friends with three of the hyokugaten.
“Need something?” I asked.
“I couldn’t help but hear what you said and it reminded me of our fight.” Nightingale said, telling me that I’ve always been there for her and the others now they’ll be here for me. Honestly it made me cry and gave me flashbacks of the Elemental Warriors.
“Hey Alex for old times sake. Let’s have a battle.” Vikarosa asked, having a plan. Confused, I said ‘No’ but Vikarosa ended up persistent. Eventually I agreed and was told to meet up with him at training room 29.
“Alex, you once said ‘Don’t be afraid of who you are. Be proud of what you’ve become. Powers don’t defy who you are, it’s what you do with them that makes it count.’ So don’t be scared and go fight.” Nightingale said. The irony of that is now hitting and to think of my friend who was scared to use her power to the fullest is now telling me to go all out. Only difference is that unlike Nightingale I literally have two versions of myself and one of them is what I’m scared of.
“Yeah ok. I’ll try.” I said, looking at my thunder blade while getting some unpleasant memories. It was time to fight and as I walked out putting on some of my old gear on from earth. Surprisingly there were a lot of people watching, guessing that’s what happens when a member of the hyokugaten is featured in a battle. As I looked around I quickly noticed that Vikarosa was armored up looking for a fight.
“So it looks like you’re preparing for the fight of your life.” VIkarosa said, looking at me with a smile. Of course the guy who likes to fight wants a challenge with a huge battle ax in his hands.
“Are there any conditions?” I asked, stretching.
“Just one. You can only use thunder mode, no transformation.” VIkarosa said, expecting my question. I sighed, took out my sword and got in a battle stance. The battle commenced with both of us charging attacking with our weapons, clashing with no one giving an inch. As we were battling the room suddenly turned into an arena much like the one from our first fight.
“No way the human is actually fighting Vikarosa the Vikarosa on the same power level!” A random employee said, while watching the battle in awe. To be honest it looked like a pokemon battle except with a human and an alien and not a pokemon stadium. After a while watching the two warriors fight, Vikarosa said something that shocked almostly everyone.
“Come on Alex! This isn’t the same one I battled back then! I want a challenge, someone who can have the same sitfit as me! Where is that?” Vikarosa said in rage. My response was silent because I knew what he meant. But I knew I couldn’t unleash him cause who knows what he’ll do. (Sitfit: Another term for when someone is psyched up for a sport or an activity he or she likes)
“ALEX! DON’T BE AFRAID! BELIEVE!” Nightingale shouted loudly. I laughed while closing my eyes. It seemed like I was going to another dimension. Now we enter my mind, full of darkness. As I walked through the shadows of my head I quickly noticed a kid who strangely looked like me sitting, I went towards him.
“So how’s the day been ShadowBolt?” I asked, looking at him.
“Peachy, I guess.” ShadowBolt said, silently.
“So um how did you survive?” I asked, trying to change the atmosphere
“We’re one Alex. As long as you live, so will I.” ShadowBolt said.
“Look. If you’re mad at me I get it. But I thought that-” I was cut off.
“I would be an outcast?” ShadowBolt finished my sentence.
“Well yeah.” I said defeated.
“You were scared and to be honest so was I.” Shadowbolt said. It surprised me, I guess great minds think alike. We chatted for a little while and as we talked we bonded actually becoming friends. Funny how two people are so close but so far apart
“I should probably get back now.” I said, a little disappointed.
“Alright but before you go can I join you? Don’t worry I won’t become what I was back then.” DarkBolt said, eager. I smiled as I walked away, extending my hand out to him.
“Uh Alex you good there?” Vikarosa said, shaking my head multiple times.
“You can let go now.” I said but my voice distorted into two. In a flash I punched Vikarosa like a boss then I literally went boss mode and beat the absolute heck out of Vikarosaby tenderizing him like a steak. He fought back but the ones in control were us. Finally after a while we landed the final blow knocking him out everyone in the stands were shocked witnessing the unreal turn into the real.
“So we finally see it.” Ruby said, smiling.
