Book 1
Chapter 1
The First Battle
For many years the galaxy has been the home of many planets and inhabitants. The galaxy had much life. One particular planet was a safe and great planet ruled by many clans of people, but only two certain clans where strong and enormous to rule out above other clans, one entire side of the planet was ruled by the people called the Rediants, or Red for short and the other side was ruled by people called the Blueskies Blue for short. Until one day the Rediants desire for more power and planets attacked the Blueskies side to invade but the blues did not let this happened. Other sorts of lower level rate tribes and clans of people and other life forms were killed by the reds taking over trying to increase their land.
One day a dark mysterious man called Raijin came to tell the reds about a place called Armageddon, a hidden place of ancient powers, it possessed enough power to take over anything, or any land for that matter, but to find the secret location 5 golden and mysterious items, pieces or keys of the Armageddon were required towards revealing the location. The blues were also told about the Armageddon secrets and its powers by the same man both wanting the power for different purposes. One side for good the other for evil, even little groups were formed intending to find the pieces as well once word spread out about Armageddon. The man was never seen again. Till today the havoc roams the air and still they are at war looking for the 5 key items in the galaxy.
“Sir, I have prepared the troops like you asked.” said one of the cadets. Very well we will advance, set the defense shields and activate all outer weapons now.” Said a tall man named Atzu
Atzu was the leader of the red space war army.
“It’s time to do this! We’ve waited so long for this moment to come we will finally settle this, I will take your key item Ace!”
“Sir we’ve spotted some blue battle squads approaching at 12 a clock a minimum of 4 ships sir.” Said a men
That particular man dressed in soldiers uniform vivid colors of red and black like the rest was in charge of certain section of the control area.
“Right activate the shock cannon and charge it to maximum power at once!” shouted Atzu.
“Yes sir! Cannon activated, charging process starting, maximum charge in 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 charge process complete sir?” said another man.
“Excellent now wait for my signal.”
“Sir they are 4 minutes from distance, away from us.”
“Wait for my signal.”…… FIRE!!!
Giant waves shot out all directions from the shock cannons blast.
“The blast will automatically shut down and paralyze everyone and everything after that is accomplished, shoot them with every lasers you have control off.” said Atsu.
“Uh sir something is wrong? The waves don’t seem to affect them.” said a soldier.
“What!!!!”
“Sir it looks like they were just holograms.”
Suddenly 4 blue battle ships attacked from behind.
“ALERT, ALERT, ALERT!” shouted the emergency signal.
“We are being attacked from behind sir.”
“FIRE DAMMIT.”
“Uhh yes sir, fire all outer weapons now!” shouted the soldier in charge of the rest.
BEE BEEM BEEM BEEM! Red lasers where shot in all sorts of directions aiming at the blue ships flying around.
“Sir they are too fast we can’t hit the target!”
“They keep hitting us but our shields will be no match for them. They will not be able to penetrate our defenses.”
“ARGHHH I don’t care I want them dead! Send out the red battle ships, kill them ALL!”
“Uh yes sir right away. Opening front doors we are sending five men in five red battle ships, launch of, now!”
“Hey Ace look? There sending out five red ships ha! Let’s take them out yeah?” said one of the pilots of the blue ship #3 Leo.
“Gladly, come on follow me.” said Ace of #1, Ace is the leader of the four blue fighters. As Ace and Leo head to the space station of the REDS Sunny who’s #2 and Ishy who’s #4 head to the mother ship.
“Look out for them reds they don’t like visitor.” said Ace
“Yeah got ya!” said Leo.
“Alright, ready? Fire!
As the red ships fired away Leo and Ace dodged the lasers and bullets and begin to shoot back. Ace got one and Leo got another.
“Oh! Great Ace bogy behind you.” Said Leo
The red ship behind shot like crazy in all directions attempting to destroy Ace with all its might, Ace rotated widely then pulled down as another red ship came towards him from the front. Both red ships collided and exploded.
BOOM...
“AH! YOU IDIOTS! YOU STUPID IDIOTS GET THE BLUE, THE BLUE!” shouted Atzu enraged.
“Ha-ha those reds not so smart now are they.” said Leo.
“Of course, I know, now let’s shoot down the last one.” said Ace.
“I’m done with this, the hell with all of you!” said the last red fleeing away.
“Ha! That’s right flee, hey Sunny how you guys doing on the other side of the ship.” said Ace.
“Fine there is just too many lasers shooting at us, but they can’t hit us this blue battle ship's system is the thing.” said Sunny.
“Alright find a way to destroy that shock cannon. Our mother ship can't get close with this thing equipped to them, and I think I know how to destroy it we need to get inside, hey I know Leo follow me.” said Ace.
We will disable the force field from inside after that you two start blasting that laser, you guys ready?”
“LET’S DO THIS!” They all said.
Chapter 2
Tragedy
“Alright Leo get my back while I shoot the enemies as we head for the entrance of where the red ships are coming out from.” said Ace.
“Right.” he replied.
Both man rushed to the entrance as they destroyed four more ships about to exit into battle and one that hadn’t left the floor yet. As it blew up they both flew right in to a giant room where there sat a dozen red ships unattended, they landed and jumped out shooting out all the enemies that where on the ground. They shot a total of 20 men.
“Alright shoot out all weapons on the walls and cameras so they won’t keep an eye on us.” said Ace.
“Right away.” Replied Leo
They blew up all weapons and cameras with their Ak-200 weapons and shot down a door that leads through a hall. Running through it they shot enemies running towards them, as they ran a bomb broke through from the other side of a door at the end of the hall.
“What? Oh no run! Leo it’s a bomb.”
BOOMMMM!
They both jumped back and dodged the little explosion, guards started to run inside from the door in which the bomb came from.
“Damn shoot Leo shoot.”
“Ah!”
Leo and Ace shot like there was no tomorrow and killed them all, they continued and reached the power source center room. But when they got there, a surprise they didn’t expect two Mecca Droids awaited their arrival.
“Great! That’s just great our weapons won’t damage them their energy shields are too powerful Ace.”
Both of them hid crouched behind a wall
“I know, hold on think, look up there shoot the power cords.” said Ace.
They both shot and blew up the big thick cords above the droids, with a jolt of sparks the cords came down and hit the Mecca droids shocking them so hard causing them to burn in electricity.
“The shock fried their shields mainframe chip they are down, now! Shoot.” shouted Ace.
Both droids where penetrated by bullets impacting the metal of both Mecca droids, they both came down falling apart into pieces.
“Yes, now let’s move on.” Said Ace
They ran inside and shot the big generator that was generating the power for the force field they also killed the guy who was working in a computer that controlled the machine.
“Auhgggg!!!”
“Now the shield is down.” said Ace.
Sunny and Ishy rushed and started shooting down the Shock Cannon down.
BOOOM!
Atzu glared in fury and did not elaborate.
“Good job, now let’s get the hell out of here.” said Ace.
They ran back to their ships but suddenly as they got ready to lift of the floor with their ships hovering in the air. As they started to fly up something horrible happened.
“That’s what I’m talking about Ace we did it ha-ha ugh!”
“Leo's ship blew up as he celebrated.”
BOOM.
“NOOOOOO, LEOOOO!”
Ace began to accelerate looking back and the explosion and escaped out meeting up with the others. They flew away in shock and sadness. As they arrived back on planet earth an hour later the crowd on the ground celebrated but getting out of their ships Ace, Sunny, and Ishy's hearts fell out in sadness their faces told it all, something bad had happened, everyone looked and noticed that Leo’s ship wasn’t there. Everyone looked and Ace while their expressions changed into frowns. Master Squall emerged from the back of the crowd, the man who is in charge of everyone and everything else only nodded in grief. He placed his hand on Ace’s shoulder.
“I know......we lost contact with Leo we know what happened...I am sorry.”
Ace looked up into the sky through a window that sat on the ceiling of the giant room in which everyone celebrated, many battle ships sat quietly. “He's...in...A...better...place now. Ace you should get some sleep were all going to rest now.” said Sunny.
“I’ll go in a minute.” said Ace.
“Alright.” Replied Sunny
“I'll contact you tomorrow Ace just get some rest ok.” said Master squall.
“Yes.... sir......
Chapter 3
The New Guy
“Morning, its 6:30 come on now Ishy Master Squall isn’t going to like us being late you know.” said Sunny.
“Aw um, ok I’am up.” Muttered Ishy
“Come on wake up we have to go to the meeting about...........Leo.”
“Yeah am going, I wouldn’t miss it.”
As they got ready and walked to the meeting Ace walked out of his room looking upset and silent, he had a straight face and did not look anyone in the eyes.
“How are you doing, Ace” asked Sunny.
“I’m ok.” He simply said and continued on his way.
They walked to a big room everyone was there it was a memorial for Leo, everyone was upset and crying. Ace seemed to be the most quite and complete of sorrow. They stayed for a long time and paid their respect to Leo “May Leo rest in peace.” Said Master Squall standing by a small counter
It was now 10:00 and everyone left to their rooms after just 2 hours the voice box on the wall went on and said, “All battle pilots report to the Alfa wing.
“What for, let’s go.” said Ishy.
As they all walked into the main gate of the Alfa wing with many other men, they all took their sits and sat down on chairs and once all of them were seated Master Squall emerged from the door with some guy they had never seen before.
“Alright now that everyone is seated allow me to introduce to all of you your new friendly fighting friend, Simon, he has graduated from the Zion pilot war academy he is the best, he knocked out everyone in his grade with his scores and skills. Isn’t it amazing and great to have a new member to our division? Heh heh eh.
While everyone got to meet Simon something happened.
“Master we have captured a signal of some troops but not of ours in the forest approaching us.” said a voice coming out of Master Squall’s radio that was placed by his chest.
“Right, Ace.”
“I know I heard, alright I need 4 battle ships Sunny, Ishy and Simon let’s show you to your first mission. You guys come with me.” said Ace.
They got in the little jet ships that where colored blue and embarked to the trespassers location. Ace turned on the radio and connected to Simon then began to speak to him.
“So, Simon, how do you feel about your first mission?”
“I am excited and honored to work with you guys.” He replied back.
“That’s great to hear.” Said Ishy who was also connected
“Excellent answer.” Said Sunny
They got to the end of the forest and hovered around looking for any unusual movement or thing. As they hovered slightly over the trees a ray of red light was shot towards Sonny’s ship but he dodged it with ease.
“Obvious, we have an ambush alright fire and destroy these termites.” said Ace.
A battle was unleashed out as many unknown individuals attacked. Ace and the team killed all the one’s that shot at them, but suddenly out of nowhere a big upgraded super battle ship emerged from afar, it began to attack and fire at them.
“That's a big one it isn’t going to be easy to take down.” said Ishy.
“Come on let’s do this, take it down boys.” said Ace.
They all shot at it but they were scarcely doing damage to it.
“I got this.” said Sunny.
He shot 4 swift missiles at it but the explosions didn’t do much then Ace shot like crazy using the machine gun on his ship.
“Who the hell is in that thing and where did it come from?” said Simon.
“I don’t know but it isn’t with the RED.” said Ace.
“What, what do you mean it isn’t with the red.” said Sunny.
Look every ship that belongs to a certain clan has its mark of clan on it but this one doesn’t and look it’s not even a red battle ship. What in hell is it.” said Ace in a silent voice.
“This isn’t like anything I’ve ever seen before. Why do I have a really bad feeling about this?” He thought deeply.
The big ship looked menacing and dangerous full with dark features and evil written all over it. It had a triangle like shape with a circle in the middle; each corner of the triangle had a round like circle as well.
Chapter 4
The Mysterious Thing
“Alright I don’t know how in the hell were going to take this thing down, any ideas?” said Ishy.
The ship unleashed two long pointy weapons that generated electricity that they have never seen before, the two laser like rods fired away and demolished Sonny’s right wing,
KABOOM!
“Ah, damn am hit am hit, going down.”
Sunny crashed on a tree and came down slowly to the ground, then it shot Ishy on the ship tail Ishy flew for a few seconds intending to get control of his ship but started coming down slowly crashing and sliding across the ground.
“Be careful! Are you guys alright?” said Ace.
“Yeah don’t worry we’re all good just some bruises and scratches.” spoke Sunny.
“Yeah what he said.” said Ishy.
I got an idea.” said Simon.
“What’s your plan.” said Ace
Both Ace and Simon flew away from the ship but keeping close to it like stocking its prey.
“I’ll get behind that ship and you distract it, I happened to be carrying a radioactive missile if I can get a good shot from behind I can take it down the, this unique missile will get past the force field and disable the ship once it released its fumes and abilities.”
“Brilliant such perfect times to be carrying a dangerous object like that in your ship.” said Ace.
Ace got in front of him while Simon got behind him slowly and silently the ship shot at Ace but he smoothly dodged them. It seemed that its attention was focused on Ace but the ship suddenly released many weapons and started shooting Simon.
“Too obvious I presume.” Said Simon
Simon closed his eyes and grumbled. A missile hit Simon on the left wing and then on the right Simon came down quick and crashed straight down into the swamp
Simon’s ship landed with the front of the ship facing up.
“Simon are you alright?” Said Ace
“Sure I am ok.” said Simon.
Ace with fury rushed towards the mysteries ship but the ship was too quick it wouldn’t let Ace behind it. The ship suddenly took out from the top another weapon but this time bigger, the weapon had three metal bars bend over slightly through the middle making the shape of a ball it started to charge a little ball in the center.
“Oh, that can’t be good.” said Ace
But suddenly as they hovered above Simon’s missile hit the force field breaking through it and blasted the weapon in half. The already charged ball of electricity fell on the big ship causing an explosion, and then hundreds of bullets and lasers went true the force field impacting the ship everywhere and began to weaken it. Ace began to fire as well with all the weapons he had, in less than a minute the ship damaged and highly penetrated came crashing down, it hit the ground. The impact of the crash demolished the outside of the ship as many little explosions combusted all around.
“Yeah! Very nice, good one.” Shouted Ace
“You distracted him all right. Enough time for me to hit it from the ground. I might have been down but my skills and weapons are still in tacked.” Said Simon
Ace landed on the ground and jumped out of the ship where Simon, Ishy and Sunny where standing. They all got together and examined the ship it was bigger looking at it laying there in flames, they busted the door. Ace blasted a door that was already half busted opened, a lot of smoke came out once the door came off completely, but as soon as the smoke cleared something came rushing towards them. It screamed horribly.
“Watch out!” yelled Ace
They all shot immediately before the thing was able to reach them. It nearly reached Ace but it was hit by all the bullets and came crashing to the muddy ground.
“What was that thing?” said Sunny.
They looked at it, it was some kind of alien, big thick spikes on its fists spikes on the back and it had some kind of armor like a solder uniform kind of thing. But whatever it was it was dead. The creature had the same triangle mark that it’s ship had.
“Take its mask off.” said Ishy.
“Sure, I’ll do it.” replied Sunny.
As he took the helmet off, the alien’s body began shake violently.
“Whoa, careful now.” said Sunny
“Guaaa ehaaaughhh!” it gurgled then it spoke with trouble.
“Uoy lliw lla eid?” It said as it slowly die of bullet injuries and wounds all on its body.
Sunny and Ishy had their weapons pointed straight at it in case it stood up.
“What was that all about, I think it spoke?” said Sunny.
“I don’t know but let’s get the hell out of here.” said Ace who was quite and lost in thought.
“I’ll call for back up, this is some disturbing and fearful phenomena, where is this thing from?” he said pulling out a radio from the sleeve on his chest.
“I’ve never seen an alien before, I didn’t think they existed.” said Simon.
“None of us did.” replied Ishy.
They all looked around the woods except Ace who talked on his radio; a scary chilling feeling ran down their spines.
“Let’s get the hell out of here.” said Simon.
A big solder carrier came and picked them up in less than ten minutes. A soldier jumped out and greeted them gesturing them to board the ship since it was useless speaking the ships engine’s sounds drowned every other sound.
As they lifted up the soldier carrier fired an intense beam of blue energy blowing up the entire ship that had the alien in. After it was all but little pieces they flew back to headquarters. Ace got a call from Master Squall and quickly took out his radio.
“Copy, sir what is it?” said Ace.
“Ace we have just found out, I think you might want to know. A trudges and unexplained event has just occurred you won’t believe It.” said Master Squall.
“What is it sir?” said Ace as everyone in the lobby of the ship looked and listened carefully.
The radio was silent for a few seconds and made the tension increase intensely.
“Some of our men have just talked to us from outer space; they flew near the Red’s space location. They found hundreds of the red soldiers dead floating in space and all their ships have been destroyed. It’s a giant massacre out there and no sign of life at all.”
“Well done master!” shouted Ace.
Everyone cheered in the lobby once they heard what had happened.
“There is just one thing, Ace, we didn’t do it, we are the only ones out here in this galaxy I am beginning to think there is something else out there.” said Master Squall.
Everyone was silent and somewhat scared.
“What could have done that?” whispered Ace.
“Also, Ace I have something to tell you, Leo’s ship was not destroyed by the reds.” Said Master Squall as everyone looked at each other in shock.
Chapter 5
Soul Eaters
As the big solder carrier lands on a long plain platform with the Blue insignia, Ace and the others jump out and run to the main gate.
“I need to ask who is Leo?” said Simon.
“Oh right your new, it’s good you ask, cause Leo was Ace's best friend he died just yesterday, you see, it’s a terrible lost he was second in command in our squad.” said Sunny.
“Sorry to hear that.” said Simon.
“Don’t sweat it; the past has passed what cant’ do anything right.”
They ran inside and entered a big elevator that lead into the headquarters room thousands of feet down into the ground.
“Where here sir. We have news from the Lost Forest.” said Ace.
“Perfect timing, I have something I want to show you all.” said Master Squall.
He walked towards the big monitor and pressed a button.
Ace and everyone else saw that it was footage of some sort, they watched the video it was a massacre all around, pieces of ships, body’s and many things just floating around, ruins. The footage was somewhat sad, but they felt victories but at the same time frighten, what had done this.
A person that was sitting down on a chair functioning the controls suddenly stood up with a microphone on his chick from his ear to his mouth.
“Master we are being contacted by one of our man from the northern base.” said a man named Rio who was in control of the controls.
“Put him on at once.”
“Mayday mayday we are under attack.... mayday mayday ah! No, no, no, behind you. Watch out, fire, fire lookout! Ah!”
The radio went silent and only the sound of the static was hearable. It was silent and odd for a minute, and then a creepy and unknown voice, a deep voice of something began to speak.
“Ew ekat revo lla ew lliw yortsed yreve gniht.”
The radio was silent, but very low; everyone heard a person or thing panting heavily, breathing on the other side of the radio line. It sounded intimidating indeed.
“What was that?” said Master Squall.
“We don’t know but we encounter something in the forest that sounded just like that it also spoke like that.” said Ace.
“That was Damian’s squad they were headed to the northern base to pick up the new parts for our ships.” said Rio.
“They left just half an hour ago it seems that they were attacked in the lost forest.” said Rio.
“What? We just got back from there, that’s where I bring you the news from.” said Ace.
“Yeah and that’s were we encounter that darn thing.” said Simon.
“Rio try to contact the northern base, see if you can make contact with any survivors and the eastern base and tell them if they know anything.” said Master Squall rubbing his forehead.
“Yes master.” replied Rio.
“This is the Blueskies mother base, is there anyone there?”
“If there is anyone alive in the northern Blueskies lower base, pick up.”
There was no answer.
“Sir I can’t reach them it seems the radio tower has been destroyed.” said Rio.
“I fear the worst, you don’t think, no, no way.” muttered Master Squall.
He looked at Ace and the others and sighed rubbing his face.
“The northern base is nearly 10,000 miles away from here; it isn’t big like this one. This base is huge, it’s our main base, and we have everything here. As for the 3 other bases, they are more like a small bases I hate to ask for your skills once again, and now, but I will send 4 ships to the base to check it out. If there is any survivor, they need you guys with them. I think this is a big problem.” said Master Squall.
“No worries sir, it’s why we are trained for.” said Ace.
“Before you embark, take something to eat, recharge, and get more ammo weapons and new and better ships. We where saving them for something like this, they are the new model ships, Anime Ex ships are better than the Lincoln Dive ships you guys had.”
“Yes sir.” they all shouted.
“Ace, Leo’s ship was destroyed by a bomb that was already in his battle cruiser, it was already in his cruiser since he took off.” said Master Squall.
Ace nodded and wondered.
They walked out to the ship arena, a huge giant room where they keep thousands of different kind of battle cruisers. There they see 5 other man, man from squad 5 polishing and cleaning some of their newly acquired ships.
“Sean and Mike.” said Ace
“Zack and Terrance.” said Sunny.
“And their leader, Kai.” said Ishy.
“I’ve been waiting for some excitement like this for a while.” said Kai.
“Ha whatever these dangerous things are they will go down.” said Zack.
“Without a doubt.” said Sean.
“I’m glad to see you Ace.” said Kai.
“My thoughts exact.” replied Ace.
“Ready for this mission, it’s nice to be teaming up with another squad.” said Ace.
“Definitely, squad 18 is the best here, because you’re a great leader Ace.”
“Thanks, like you.” replied Ace “Let’s move.”
“Yeah lets go.” said Kai.
They all got in their ships and took off 9 ships left the Main hidden base; they flew to the northern base. Kai was in front of the bunch in the air while Ace followed behind the rest flew near each other. It shocked them all what they saw when they reached the Lost Forest. The forest was demolished they kept on going and saw something sad, some blue ships that belonged to Damian’s squad. Pieces of ships lying down burnt everywhere. It was a wreck; they flew until finally reaching the northern base. When they got there, everything and every little building were destroyed, dead bodies laid unmoving on the ground.
“What does something like this, besides those Rediants.” said Kai.
“Let’s land and look for survivors, but be cautious and alarmed.” said Ace.
They landed and walked inside, blood everywhere. Everyone had their weapon loaded and ready to fire away. Carefully they walked around searching. Both squads kept together and ended up finding the security room. Simon spotted some monitors and a recorder. Ishy tried to see the what the cameras recorded by pressing the play button, the monitor turned on and made a loud sound.
“Quite, turn it down quick.” said Kai.
Suddenly another of the thing they encounter broke through the wall where the monitors where and attacked them, it got Sean from behind it picked him up. The size of the thing surpassed 8 feet. Sean shot at it on the face while it was close to its face. It blinded the thing from the eyes. Suddenly it stabbed Sean on the right side of the chest
“No! Sean.” yelled Kai.
“Die you bastard!” shouted Kai.
They all shot at it without hesitating; it went down roaring and trying to slash at the closest person to him but without any sight it failed to hit anyone. Kai and his men ran to Sean’s aid as Ace and his team looked and aimed around for any other threats roaming around.
“Augh! Kai, sorry, I didn’t, do much.” Muttered Sean,
Gurgling blood out of his mouth Sean struggled to breath.
“No it’s going to be ok, don’t speak save your breath.” said Zack.
Sean nodded slowly. Kai’s furry found its way out quickly, he stood up and rushed towards the thing, he punched the thing on the face so many times that its mask came off. Its face was disgusting and strange; it had big eyes and long sharp fangs, black thick skin and a long tongue.
“What the hell are you and what do you want!” shouted Kai
The thing moved its head briskly, with bullet wounds all around its face. Then it began to speak faintly.
“Ew era eht, Luos Sretae.” The thing mumbled in a deep and scratchy tone.
Kai punched it once more.
“I don’t speak your stupid language you stupid ugly demon!”
The thing only chuckled coldly and began to whisper horribly.
“We .....are .....the .....Soul Eaters....hahaha.”
It laughed slowly and scary the scary sounds echoed terribly. It continued to laugh louder and louder laying there on the floor until Ace shot it on the head with the Ak-200.
“Laugh at this, you ugly freak.”
PUEM!
Chapter 6
The Second Battle
“Come on let’s get going, let’s check out the footage of the security camera.” said Ace.
Mike took out a long syringe and a little bottle with white liquid, he took some out with the needle and ejected into Sean’s chest. He was passed out to feel anything.
As they look at the screen playing the video all of them became silent.
“It looks like they were on under attack by those things.” said Simon.
“Yeah we can see that.” said Terrence as he looked around in the room.
“Now let’s get going, we need to make this quick as possible there’s only a few cameras.” said ace.
“A few look at all this cameras.” responded Terrence.
“Thanks for pointing that out.” said Ace as he looked at Terrence in a frowning face.
They looked through the videos and saw that they were attacked by many of the Soul Eaters as they were called, they killed at first sight and took their weapons the other videos showed that they were taking the weapons and all their armor, everything that seemed useful, it also showed a very disturbing scene, the creatures will put their faces close to their faces and suck some kind of white mist out of them. They sucked them dry, out of something.
They where invaded by those things. Simon’s mind wondered around looking at the destruction around them, and then noticed on a little screen that was far to the right and noticed a freighting and shocking scene. Soul Eaters where coming in from the entrance hall, but the thing that frightened him was that it was live.
“Oh crap! They’re coming this instant!” shouted Simon.
Everyone looked at the little screen; a dozen Soul Eaters were coming in. One smashed the camera recording.
“Why are they back?” said Kai casually.
“Probably for the rest of the supply, let’s take them out, let’s give them a surprise.” said Ace reloading his weapon.
As the eaters made their way true the halls, everyone waited patiently crouching behind residue. Ace and Sunny moved Sean to a safe hidden location. Four soul eaters passed by down the hall and suddenly Mike and Zack jumped out and began shooting at them from behind. They dropped the back two quickly then Terrence and Kai unleashed out a shower of bullets the soul eaters dropped dead on to the ground. Ace and his team jumped out and finished the last two that were about to draw their weapons.
“Nice, that wasn’t so challenging now was It.” said Mike.
But he spoke to soon, suddenly the walls burst opened with explosions, flames engulfed the halls, everyone except Ace and Kai flew back and landed hard on to the concrete.
“That freaking hurt! What is happening?” said Terrence coughing on the dust and smoke.
“Come on stand up shoot kill them before they kill us there are more outside.” yelled out Simon.
Elites came true the blown up walls quick and shooting at them.
“Duck, Duck they are firing at us.” repeated Ace.
Kai rolled behind a big piece of concrete and started to shoot back. They all took cover and shot randomly they couldn’t see because of the thick smoke and dust. They randomly hit one of the eaters exactly on the forehead.
“llik meht lla yeht lliw dneur ruo snalp.” said one of the eaters.
Mike saw him and shot it on the head. They shot a random of 8 eaters that were just there in the dusty hall shooting back at them. Suddenly one came out and stood still, it had some kind of silver shiny thick armor it looked upgraded and strong.
“Shoot it!” yelled Kai.
All of them taking cover behind some kind of hard object shot at it, it wouldn’t come down it slowly moved his hand and took out a ball the size of a base ball. It pressed a button on top of it. Ace looked back to look at Kai as they looked at each other the ball fell in the middle of both of them, ithad lights flashing all around it.
“Run!” shouted Ace and Kai at the same time
They all ran the opposite direction from the eaters and the bomb.
BOOMMM!
It exploded as they ran; the sonic wave followed by the flames sent them flying far towards a wall.
“Ah darn, that hurt bad and my leg is hurt intensely.” shouted Terrence in agony.
“I think it’s broken.”
“This is seriously not my day.” Terrance muttered.
Kai examined his companions’ leg and surely it was broken, the knee cap stuck out clearly.
“Now I am mad.” said Kai.
Kai stood up and fired where the eaters where at. Mike and Ishy shot as well since they were the first up.
“We need to get you out of here.” said Ace.
“Zack and Mike I need you guys to get him out of here. I’ll get Sean.” Kai said.
“Right!” they said
They picked him up onto their shoulders and began to walk away through another hall way. Sunny and Ishy lead the way in case they encountered any eaters.
“You go I have your backs.” said Simon as both Ace and Kai walked back to the smoked area of the explosion carefully and alerted. They ran back to the eater’s terrain. Simon began shooting the slightest movement he saw. Sean was in one peace and still passed out, but doing better now, they took him out of the hidden spot and began carrying him to safety.
As they ran eaters began shooting at them with laser guns. Simon shot back as did Ace. They turned a hall and met with the rest who waited by a whole on the wall.
“Day light.” said Sunny.
All of them exit through that whole but they stopped frozen on their tracks, for a big giant ship was hovering above them.
“What on earth is that?” said Sunny.
“This is not good, not good at all.” Zack said
They notice small but still quite big, ships flying towards it.
“That’s right, back to that ship.” said Kai.
Suddenly a ship hovered above them and the big soul eater with the shiny thick silver armor came down and quickly grabbed Ishy, Zack and Terrence, pushing the rest to the ground. Terrence was injured to be able to fight back. It started to pull them up on to a platform that waited for them above.
“No man left behind.” shouted Ishy.
“Leave me!” yelled Terrence.
Terrence pushed Ishy and Zack of the little like ship that was headed to the big ship. It flew in to the ship with the eater and Terrence aboard. Right as the door was closing, Terrence took of his belt and pushed a button it was packed with bombs, he looked at the eater and said.
“You nearly killed my brother, you stupid ugly, whatever you are.”
“It’s the end!” he shouted
. KAABOOOOMMMM!
That particular spot had an enormous explosion that spread to the entire ship killing all the eaters in the ship and sadly Terrence as well.
“No! Not you too Terrence!” shouted Kai shooting at the flaming ship that slowly came crashing down.
Chapter 7
Red Returns
Everyone’s battle ships had been destroyed by the soul eaters while they were inside. A rescue ship came to pick them up as soon as possible. As they fly back to headquarters Ace looks at Kai and his group way at the back of the Rescue Ship. They sit in sadness, looking at the solid floor without a single word to say.
“He is gone.” said Mike.
“Ah, how could I let this happened.” said Kai.
“No it’s my fault.” said Zack.
“No you did what you needed too, it was Terrence who pushed you off.” said Kai.
“Yeah but I should of held on to him I, just feel so guilty.” said Zack.
“Don’t worry you’re not.” said Mike.
“Hey Ace, that’s devastating, it must be hard for them like it was for you, you should go talk to them.” said Sunny.
Ace nodded and walked to them. He sat next to Kai.
“Hey I am sorry, I understand how you are feeling.” he said in a silent voice.
“It’s all good he is in a better place now, he wouldn’t want us to worry about It.” said Kai.
Ace placed his hand on his shoulder and nodded. One of the two pilots at once contacted Ace.
“Sir Ace, we have a problem.” said the Pilot.
“What is it?” said Ace.
He stood up quickly and briskly walked to the pilot. He glanced outside through the windshield.
“Oh great, now this.” said Ace.
“What's wrong.” said Simon who also stood by his side.
“Rediants.” said Ace weary and surprised.
“What! No way had I thought they were all gone.” said Ishy.
“Well I guess they are still with us, your wise to expect an entire clan to be extinct like that, I had a feeling they were still here.” said Sunny.
“This is no time to battle, we are injured and exhausted, but if it’s a fight they want, I’ll give them one.” said Kai.
Out of the rescue ship there they see at least hundreds of ships of the reds and a enormous space stations in the middle of all that security, slowly hovering towards them. It seems as though an invasion has began. Atsu glares at the rescue ship that has come to a halt in plain air.
“Well, hehehe what a pleasant surprise.” said Atsu joy fully, contacting the rescue ship.
“A blue rescue ship should we take care of it this fly in our way?”
Behind Atzu on a fancy and royal like chair sat a man in a black robe. His face was hidden away by the hood of his rob and the only features seen where his chin and his hands. The man silently sat enjoying the show.
“Fire kill them.” yelled Atsu.
“Halt! Seas fire!” said the man in the robe quickly and softly.
“I would like to have a word with the blues in that ship.” he said softly yet again.
“Master? But, yes sir.” muttered Atsu.
“Very well.” said Atsu as he turned back towards the screen.
“Contact that ship immediately once again.” he shouted.
“Yes sir right away.”
“Sir Ace incoming connection from, from the red mother ship.” said the pilot.
“Put them on.” said Ace curiously and weary.
As the monitor flashes on, Atsu begins speaking and smiling.
“Well well look who it happens to be, my best friend Ace.” says Atzu sarcastically.
“Hahaaa it’s a sad shame not to kill you right now but, my master won’t allow me to, he wants to speak with you.”
Ace frowned and glared at Atzu with a face of hatred. But he considered his threatening face and recoiled back when he hear the low raspy voice.
“Greetings..... Ace.” said the men in the black rob.
“Jerkon, what a surprise to see you, what a perfect surprise this is to me and to my fellow comrades.” said Ace, in state of shock.
Jerkon, the Master and leader of the Rediants clan.
“What’s the matter why so nervous; I will not gesture for a fire attack. I simply want to talk, our station in space was brutally attacked and destroy easily by some unknown race of ships, their weapons, and just so powerful.” he emphasized on powerful.
“All my man out there was of no match against them. As for me I wasn’t there at the time, but my humble right hand man, Atsu was.” He said waving his hand towards Atzu.
“When I find out who was responsible, the things I will do, I managed escaped easily, along with two others that followed me.” said Atsu.
“Would you do me the favor and kindly tell me who they were.” said Jerkon.
“I don’t know.” responded Ace.
“You... Don’t...know, now I know you know.” said Jerkon.
Ace reconsidered and began to speak truthfully.
“So far we know that, they call them self’s Soul Eaters, and like you they have destroyed our men as well, that is all we know.”
“Now that is much better.” said Jerkon nodding.
Ace quickly turned around and back. They stood there frozen and panicked.
“Now what can I say I have the greatest squad of my worst enemy in my sight, and ready to die, well for being polite and corporative, I’ll let you pass through.” said Jerkon.
Everyone in looked at Jerkon in disbelief, even Atzu was somewhat shocked.
“Sure! Go ahead, if you... don’t get hit.” said Jerkon as he gave the signal to fire.
SSSHHHHSHBEEEEEMMM BEEEM!
Every ship shot at them everyone held on to something, but as they shot the rescue ship, suddenly a dozen more split out of the original.
“Hmm a tri-hologram skill, very interesting.” said Jerkon.
“Grr! Go, go hit them.” yelled Atzu.
They shot and shot but none of the ships was the real one. As the entire red forces slowly hovered by shooting at all the fake ones, the medium size rescue ship slowly hovers in the woods close to the ground and hidden by the trees.
“Darn! That was close, nice thinking Ace.” said Kai
“I have never, been that frightened, pilot head out to the main quarters, keep close to the ground.” said Ace.
“Yes right away, it might be challenging since this ship is somewhat large.” said the pilot.
Chapter 8
Descendents of the Abaskie Clan
“That was close I don’t want to go through that again.” said Ishy.
“I know what you mean, my heart rushed like crazy.” said Sunny.
“Look up ahead there is an underground tunnel in front of that hill, I think it’s a tunnel or something.” said Simon.
“Yes I see it.” said the pilot.
Everyone became silent when they heard the sounds of red battle cruisers flying by above.
“Go inside, the entrance is big enough to fit in, this is the forest tunnels I assume, they are mines that have been here for years.” said Ace
“Very well but brace your self’s in case of a bump.” said the pilot.
“Careful not only for that, but for dangers that can be lurking around.” said Kai.
“What makes you say that.” said Zack.
“Look outside.” said Simon.
They all looked out through windows and saw bombs, sensor bombs on the trees.
“Why are there, bombs all around this place?” muttered Mike.
“Let’s get out of here, now.” muttered Zack.
“No, just don’t get to close to them, we have a better chance of survival here than out there. Slowly proceed into the tunnel.” said Ace.
As they made their way slowly through the tunnels it began to get darker, less light.
“It’s dark too dark.” Mike said.
“Don’t have a panic attack.” said Sunny.
It was quite for a moment or so, when a little noise slowly came on and got a little louder for everyone to hear. The sounds echoed, like pebbles crumbling.
“What is that sound.” said Simon.
Everyone was weary and looking around the windows. The sounds stopped and everyone relaxed their muscles and nerves. But the calm moment was about to end. Suddenly three big and long nets jumped out off nowhere and tangled the medium ship; the wires released a tremendous wave of jolts that shocked the ship cousin it to shut down all systems.
“It’s going down.” said Ace.
They came crashing down into two big boulders by a river bank.
CRASH!
“Is everyone ok.” said Ace clearing the smoke and sitting up.
“Yeah!” said most of them unsure.
“Who caught us, for a net that was strong to catch us.” said Mike.
Zack like everyone else moved around in the dark since the power shut down on the ship. The only light was that of sparks that sparked from damaged areas and flash lights they had. Zack noticed a shadow standing by the window then moved.
“Look outside I saw something move quickly.” said Zack.
Ace, Kai and Simon who where up aimed at the window. The pilot pulled and placed wires together of all sorts, he put a few together and the power began generating again.
The light of the broken down ship lit outside into the cave just far enough to see the hard thick walls and a river bank fallowed by many giant boulders.
“Come on lets go check it out.” said Kai. We obviously have nothing else to do.”
“What are you crazy, am not going out there. Besides someone has to check on Sean, he is ok.” said Zack.
“Alright you sit here while we find a way out, we lost the radio apparently so we will come back with back up.” said Kai.
“I’m ok, I want to come, someone just help walk, the healing antidote has done enough.” Sean said trying to stand up.
“That’s great, you’re ok, and I guess we are coming.” Zack said.
“Sean, I think you should know your brother.” said Kai.
“I know, don’t worry, not now anyways.” replied Sean.
Ace kicked the door down off the ship, and jumped on to the ground fallowed by Sunny and Mike. They quickly aimed their guns around the area.
“Come on jump already.” said Kai.
Zack who was nervous on the edge of the ship's door way was thinking to jump.
“Move it or lose It.” said Ishy waiting for him to jump.
“I’m going; I’m going, ok..... Ill convince myself alright think.... Hey look,” he told himself. “Oh no a soul eater!” he pretended to faint and fell to the ground where he landed safely.
“That worked.” he said.
“Why did you, um never mind.” said Ishy as he landed on the ground.
“Let’s head out, we have to find out whom or what hit us.” said Ace.
“Oh ok lets go.” said Zack.
As they walked further away from the ships light, it faded more and more, and darker it got. Ace lit the flash light on his Ak-200 automatic machine riffle as the others did as well fallowing his steps. Suddenly something jumped out of the dark and hit Ace on the head. Another shadow jumped out and double hit both Kai and Mike. Sunny and Simon shot at them but the two shadows where hard to spot.
It jumped in to the dark and came out of the other side and hit Sunny and Simon with some kind of tool weapon.
“Ah! Shrieked Zack
But shut right up as he saw many come out of the dark. Zack’s weapon was taken out of his hand, he did not even see who or what took it. One gave a sign that looked like he wanted Zack to follow him.
“Uh, ok.” said Zack terrified.
He looked back and saw more of them coming out, some, where picking the rest of the team up they were knocked. About a half hour later Ace woke up and looked around dazed and confused. He noticed Zack sitting down by a fire.
“Ace you’re awake.” he said.
Suddenly the mysterious people walked towards Ace, a number of five. They looked like they were human because of the kind of cloth they used. They had black armor of some kind, their uniforms where black generally, their theme of style resembled hidden sort of ninjas, of warriors. Their masks showed only black. They had weapons that required skill using them, swords, and hand used metallic weapons. Some of the ninja like people looked at the weapon Ace had as if they’ve never seen a gun.
“You have trespassed our lands and found or secret base.” said the guy.
“Uh we didn’t know this was here.” said Ace.
“Well now you do.”
“They could be with the soul eaters.” said one in the back.
“What! No were not.” said Ace.
“They don’t look like soul eaters.” he said.
“My name is Zen and I am the leader of the lost clan, The Abaskie Clan.” he said as Ace looked at him surprised and shocked.
“The.......Abaskie…clan?” he said slowly.
“I’ve heard of the Abaskie clan..........I.......thought.......they...........were instinct.” muttered Ace.
“Instinct no, hidden is the right term.” Zen said.
“But.... there is just a few of us left. I am not going to let my clan disappear I will dispose of all those soul eaters that have began to appear out there.”
“I see you have encountered soul eaters.” said Ace. “We have as well, and we are not happy about them either, we are on the same side you and me?”
The others began to wake now and move around on the ground.
“What hit me, oh my head?” mumbled Ishy.
“My head?” muttered Mike.
“Give my money back.” said Sunny who was still unconscious.
All of them were saying things that didn’t quite make sense, as they stood up.
“They attacked us and killed many of my people, but I got my hidden army we will go to war with this intruders, alien scum’s.” said Zen. “From what we have discovered concerning this creatures, is simple, we have found out they travel from planet to planet conquering it by killing ever life form then moving to the next. They are of a powerful race of aliens and advanced in weapons.”
“Now knowing that your hatred is of the soul eaters, and you are human, we’ve seen your machines fly above for years.
Ace nodded
“Very well, now my proposal to you, it will increase our strength and skills, let’s unite and become one.” said Zen as he reached out with an opened hand towards Ace.
Chapter 9
Return of an Old Friend
“Unite? To defeat the soul eaters.” said Ace.
“Formative, and have you by any chance met the ones who have also done wrong to us, we’ve known them for millennia now, the Rediants or so called reds?” asked Zen.
“Have we, off course we have there our number one enemy and we won’t stop till there done in out.” said Ace.
“Then we should make very well allies, we encounter this reds and well didn’t get along, they tried to conquer us years ago.” said Zen.
“So you will help us beat these invaders, we could use experts for this kind of new foe, your help will be of much use.”
“Well first thing first we need to get to our head quarters out south from here.” said Ace.
“Very well than I should show you the fastest way to the south, come follow me.” said Zen.
As they walk through many halls of caves Ace and the others look around and notice a lot of people like families and warrior like man guarding on the side of entrances and kids playing around.
“Wow this place is huge, and underground fortress kind of thing now this is impressive.” said Sean who was on a wheel chair been pushed by Zack.
They made it to a dark tunnel and walked through it. It was cold and wind blew hard and loud.
“If you follow this path you should come out a hidden way, please contact us when you reach your destination. I will have men waiting for any response near the exit.” said Zen loud so they can hear him.
“Yes, I will.” said Ace.
They stood on the edge of the tunnel, there was no bottom it was all dark.
“You must jump!” shouted Zen.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded with fear. Ace jumped first and Kai followed, everyone else jumped and Sean only dropped. Swoosh! Their bodies flew nearly have way down when a giant wave of gust hit them and began taking them down the tunnel. Their body’s where suspended in the center of the tunnel away from the ground and walls.
“Hold on to something this thing is extremely fast.” shouted Mike who had trouble speaking.
“What will I hold on too? There is nothing to hold on too!” shouted Ishy.
They made it to an end and it looked like there were going to collide with a wall, all of them shouted in fear, but it was actually a hologram, they past right through and into a wall that slid swiftly up like a slide, they slid up toward the sky emerging from a whole on the ground, they came crashing down on to a small lake.
Emerging from the water drifting to the river bank, Ace pulled Sean since he was next to him.
“Do you think Zen knew the lake was here?” asked Kai.
Everyone just giggled a bit.
“Let’s move, and careful, you never know what can emerge out of now where.” said Ace.
“We are near our territory now, we shouldn’t worry.” said Sunny.
A ship suddenly rushed towards them aiming its big cylinder weapon at them, ready to obliterate.
“Ah! We are Blueskies, relax it’s me Ace.” shouted Ace.
“My apologies.” said the pilot of the blue guard battle ship.
They were picked up and taken back to headquarters.
“Glad to see you alive like always.” said Master Squall happily.
Master Squall sat in his office on a big chair in front of a flat glass that happened to be a touch screen computer. He was typing a long memo of the experiences that had happened in the past few days.
“Well you won’t be glad when I tell you that the base is a disaster no one was left alive, does things kill them all, they are called Soul Eaters.” said Ace.
As Ace spoke Master Squall walked by shaking his head in shame and anger, but all of his negative emotions quickly fled, for he gazed out the giant window that sat on the left of his office.
“Ace.” said Master Squall slowly and confused.
“Yes sir, we feel sympathy for everything lost as well?” said Ace.
“How many ships are you traveling with? He whispered.
“None sir, we had to walk for a little while, why?” said Ace who was now wondering and feeling odd.
Master Squall rubbed both his eyes with one hand and sighed.
“Well I hate to say this but.......who do does ship belong too?” he asked as he glared at many objects hovering and coming near them.
“What!”
They all looked out the window as well, many ships were getting near. The ships were black, full of darkness. The biggest of the ships landed on the ground as many smaller but powerful and fast looking battle ships landed around it, the door opened swiftly and smoked emerged out quickly.
“How did they penetrate our defenses, how could have they entered our defenses and gotten to us? said Kai gripping his weapon tight.
“I don’t know, but I might have a possibility who it might be, look someone is coming out.” said Ace.
“Why did we not spot or noticed them coming, our radars are the best and would of tracked them miles away from or defenses.” whispered Master Squall.
Slowly someone began to briefly walk out and stood still half way of the platform, looking around and examining everything in sight. Blueskies, some in uniforms others not ran around as they noticed the ships landing. Many aimed their weapons at him and the ships. The individual glared around, he wore black, dark armor, dark gloves with spikes and a mask of dark steel. Every part of his body was covered by the strong dark looking armor. His dark cape reached his ankles.
Ace and the others ran towards the hundreds of Bluskies that had gathered to surround the ships, many were guarding the entranced of the base aiming their weapons at the intruders. The man in dark armor looked at Ace and the rest.
“So you’re the famous Ace of the blues.” said the guy.
As he spoke in a menacing voice, two others began to walk out of the ship that wore similar uniforms like the first one. Behind the two came yet another person, but this one had different kind of uniform, his was also black and dark looking but he had shoulder pads and kneed pads, gloves that had circler glass orbs and his mask was blue. The man’s cape was dark purple.
They stood quiet still, glaring at the blue soldiers, they were many.
“What a welcome.” said one of the men that came second on the left, he spoke bitterly.
“Let them hate us, as long as they fear us.” said the other on the right.
As he finished speaking his pleasant quote, the ship in which they emerged from unleashed giant weapons that look deadly from around the ship various types of powerful weapons. All the blues braced them self’s and began to get nervous for no orders were given to fire at the intruders.
The man that emerged last, began to walk towards Ace and looked at him face to face, Ace could only see his reflection on the mask shiny steel. He began to back up and as soon as he was a far distance away from them the big aircraft started firing at the ships and at the base every single soul fired back at the imposters with everything they had.
“Ah duck!” shouted Kai.
The aircraft launched missiles of all sorts and lasers that blew up the base little by little, down came crashing many small buildings and concrete, all was destroyed by the huge guns once it halt its assault. None of the bullets that were fired back by the Blue’s hit the four men or the aircraft. They were left untouched and safe. Everyone of the blue’s cried out in horror at their home and shouted curses in anger.
The person who had stepped out first took out a black, hand gun.
“I love this job.” he shouted.
Quickly the man shot Zack and moved his arm to his left as his pointed his weapon at them and as it automatically shot bullets. Zack was hit on the leg near the knee.
“Ah! My leg, the pain, it hurts.” yelled Zack.
“Zack!” shouted Kai dropping to aid Zack.
“Drop your weapons and surrender at once, unless you want more people to get hurt.” said the man who looked Ace into the eyes.
“How dare you, you cowards!” shouted Ace at them.
“This doesn’t need to be the hard way now.” The man replied.
“You won’t get away with this.” said Ace bitterly.
“Never!” shouted Ace. “The Blueskies Clan does not surrender, we will fight until death.”
“Right, that’s how we were trained and thought.” said the person yet again.
Ace recoiled in confusion, raised and thought what was he talking about thought Ace. The man chuckled and began to unclick little locks on his neck that connected his helmet to his shoulders. Hesitating, the man began to remove his helmet. Ace's eyes widen in shock and denial.
“Leo?” said Ace in a sad and soft voice.
Chapter 10
Rise of the New Enemy
“No this can’t be you can’t be here I, I saw you blow up, the flames engulfed you, no this can’t be.” muttered Ace.
Leo smiled and placed his helmet under his arms.
“Yes, how you been Ace. Hasn’t been too long but sure feels like it doesn’t it now.” Leo said rubbing the plate that sat above the mask of his helmet, it was the same triangular mark the Soul Eaters had; it was engraved on the plate.
“Now please drop your weapons and follow our directions, I highly doubt you want it to get ugly.” said Leo.
Soul Eaters and other men that wore the same kind of armor the Soul Eaters wore began to emerge from the ships that surrounded the aircraft and aimed at them with weird, alien like dark weapons. Ace and his man looked around, their man began to put their weapons down, it seemed they had no hope since many black ships continued to come from the sky.
“Allow me to introduce to you my man, The Black Ops. They are the best of the best; I assume you have met the soul eaters already so let’s put introduction aside.” He chuckled. “You may be wondering why I’m here, alive, no it’s not a miracle, I’m here looking for squall where is he.” demanded Leo.
Ace glared at Leo in betrayal and hurt, his eyes trembled and his arms shacked. He scarcely found the words to speak to him.
“F-For what purpose?” said Ace still in disbelief.
“Let’s say he has something I want or more like need.” He gestured to the destroyed base.
“What would that be?” asked Ace.
“You don’t need to worry Ace.” He said in a manner of boredom. “Ace you are boring me to death, if your weapons can’t kill me, well your presence and curiosity surely will.” He laughed.
“What why would you talk to me like that we are best friends.” said Ace.
“No, Ace, we were best friends until I realized my true potential was higher than yours, that I was with the wrong side, the wrong people that I was with the weak. I decided to join them, where my skills brought me to become the 2nd in command, The Black Ops we are a clan of dark and we are to consume everything and kill anyone who is against us.”
Leo had a face that craved more power.
“As for the soul eaters, they follow our command; they do what we tell them to do, but they won’t be around for long as soon as we get the items we desire, with their help it will be much easier, I will make sure they get destroyed once we gather them.”
Leo’s expression explained it all, he was mad over power.
“I am here for Squalls item, the soul eater’s posses one as well, as do the reds, we will be unstoppable ha ha ha as if we are not already.” said Leo determined.
“Wait, your here for the......... key item.” said Kai.
“Yes of course the piece, squall has it and if he doesn’t hand it over we will destroy you all, heh sorry Ace, you and me were good friends the best indeed but I am a different person now, that day that I, ‘died’ in the explosion.”
Leo began walking towards the his aircraft.
“I was asked to join the Black Ops to help lead and army to have all the power I could possibly have and want. To rule this galaxy and conquer beyond, heh, the reds stood no chance against us but still fought without holding back unfortunately three battle aircraft escaped or more like slipped away from us sadly one of them was carrying the piece that they possessed, I assume Atzu was in that little ship.”
“Long story indeed.” said the first person who had shown himself at first.
“But not to worry we know where 3 of the pieces are, #1 your weak clan possess #2, our helpful soul eaters and #3 the idiotic reds. We our self’s have in our grasps the 4th piece and we will find the last one but first we start with you.” said Leo once he finished his long story.
“We won’t let you get a hold of it.” said Ace.
“Fine have it your way Ace, always so naïve. said Leo.
“And you so arrogant.” replied Ace.
“Indeed.” He said. “Shoot the one on the far right!” he shouted.
“Ah, no!” yelled Kai.
One of Leo’s men shot Sunny on the shoulder and down he came.
“No! Why Leo you damn traitor! We trusted you!” shouted Ace.
From the back many black ops came out and ran to seized them. Many blues tried to fight. Black Ops and Blueskies killed each other, many soul eaters die as well. But shortly after the intention, the blue’s surrendered. Soul Eaters and Black ops broke in to the base, the power was down and the defense weapons were all destroyed that protected the base. They captured all the blues and Master Squall who waited for them in his banged up office. He fought with all his skill and might but was taken down; he was injured on his leg and arm, shortly after he handed over the key item.
As for Ace and Kai, they were captured and taken hostage along with their squads and Master Squall.
“I can’t believe this Ace how Leo could betray us like this.” said Sunny who bled a lot and held his shoulder tight with Ace’s help.
“He’s a dead man to me he killed many of ours.” said Ace.
“He nearly killed you Sunny, you’ll be ok, the potion will heal you, good thinking on your part Ishy.” said Ace.
They looked and saw through a little window a saw that they were headed into space.
“Were do you think we’re going? If they are looking for the other pieces they are going the wrong way the reds are in the planet,” said Simon.
“I don’t know.” said Ace in a low voice.
“We need to get out of here.” said Ishy.
“Yeah and how? We don’t have our weapons or anything just stuck in this damn cell.” said Kai.
Ace looked and saw 4 men guarding the path to the exit door of the jail chamber. I have an idea he said.
Chapter 11
Lord of Dark
“Alright you guys do as I do and don’t mess it up as soon as one of those guards comes in, find a way to knock him out and take his guns and shoot the others if necessary.” said Ace
“What are you up too?” said Kai.
“Just follow my lead, and don’t mess it up.”
Ace fell to the ground and started yelling in pain.
“Ah help I am cursed ah!”
The others looked at him in embarrassment to see their leader behaving in this manner. The other guards came running in one looked at Ace in the eyes and the others guard the rest. Ace suddenly punched the guard and took his hand gun and shot him on the leg. The other guards looked back and as they did the others took their hand guns out and also shut the men on their legs.
“Good work now follow me and hurry.” said Ace looking out the jail cell.
They ran to the door and open it more, like wise, there were more guards on the other side of the door. Ace shot the camera on the wall as the rest shot the guards they ran to the door and did the same thing.
“I wish Terrance was here.” said Kai.
“Look those words say Battle Pods Left. Lets go.” said Sean who was now in great condition but had a scar on his chest.
They ran and ran until reaching the section of the battle pods.
“More man up ahead.” said Mike.
“Let’s kill them all!” shouted Ishy.
They shot all of the men that fired at them, a mini battle war exploded bullets flying everywhere, once the coast was cleared they began to board the ships that stood there in rows, they forgot to shoot the cameras.
“ALERT ALERT enemy is loose!” said a voice in the speaker box on the wall.
“Come on let’s try to hurry and find a way out of here.” said Simon.
They took off swiftly once they figured out how to control the ships, they flew up and out through a giant gate way, they had blasted the giant steel doors. But as they made it out to space something expectable awaited their freedom. Hundreds red ships along with the mother board behind the army of res.
“Oh great.” said Ace.
Suddenly they started shooting at the giant Black Ops ship. The Black Ops ship fired back, Ace and his man were in the middle of it all they flew down out of the war zone and stayed way down low just looking at the war of the red and Black Ops. Many Black Ops was ships came out of the mother board. Explosions ignited every were in the giant zone of war. Lasers and bullets and rockets and missiles and bombs and anything that will define death were shooting everywhere. Ships blew up with 0% chance of survival.
“This is intense, insanity!" said Kai.
“Come on we need to get the hell out of here as soon as possible we don't want to end up like him.” said Ace pointing at a blown up ship crashing down.
“Let’s go we need to get back to the base and get our equipment, we need to find anyone still there or any sign.”
Ace was focusing on escaping without being hit by any kind of fatal blast when something caught his attention, it seemed something big was hiding near the aircraft, slowly walls of steels where visible, growing and growing until finally revealing a giant space station that surpassed the size of anything Ace has ever seen before. A very tiny whole opened at the very top of the ship the size of a person. Someone was coming out from the top. A man completely covered with the same kind of armor that Leo wore, but his man was different in many ways, he had dark like smoke emerging from around his body.
The men was dark with no doubt, he wore the insignia of the triangular shape on his metallic mask. He had dark black gloves that seemed to be also producing dark like flames. He slowly pointed his right arm at the direction where the war was proceeding. The man looked at ease and briskly opened his hand wide, black energy, that looked like black fire and electricity began generating into a ball then, less than a few seconds he shot it destroying anything in its path both Red warriors and Soul Eaters extinguished with the explosion the of black energy of the ball.
He placed his arm back down smoothly and very slowly turned back and walked back to the door. Every one stood still with out breaking any movement.
“D-d-did you see th-that. What happened, he just blew them all up with his hand.” said Zack.
“Come on we really need to get out of here now that the red is gone again they are going to focus on us!.” shouted Ace.
