THE WAR OF FATE
Part One: The Resurrection
Chapter
Six: The Last Chance
"I guess that means our cover is
blown!" shouted GWB above the roar of the crowd below the agents. He
whipped out his Desert Eagles and twirled them on his fingers. "Shall
we?" he asked Ness, who nodded in approval. Together they jumped from
their perch and landed in the crowd of Gray Ninjas. GWB pumped two or
three full of lead as Ness bashed in the head of another. "These guys
are like ants," joked Ness as he uppercut another one into the air.
Samrong stared at the battle that raged
before him. He turned to Omni. "Protect Fury and DaRokSez at
all costs. They MUST complete the ritual!" Samrong turned to
Galex. The giant looked hungrily at Samrong. "All right,"
Samrong said, staring into Galex's eyes. "Dispose of them."
The giant lifted his axe in the air above his head and let out a battle cry that
shook the foundations of the cave. He charged into the melee in a fit of
rage.
Fudge was surrounded by a few Ninjas.
They paraded around him like lions stalking their prey. Fudge smiled and
slammed his broadsword into the ground. The sword vibrated and sent out a
shockwave that knocked the Ninjas off their feet. He pulled the sword out
of the ground and held it straight up in the air, impaling a Ninja that jumped
into the air from behind him. "Damn things are everywhere," he
said to himself as another group of assassins jumped him and knocked the agent
to the ground.
Deathwing flew in the air above the battle.
His target was Omni, who protected Fury and DaRokSez with a shield of pure
energy. Suddenly, a strand of webbing caught Deathwing's tail and flung
him into the wall. He still felt dizzy as Spyder calmly walked up to him
and pulled out his revolver. "Do you know how eassssily I can kill
you?" said the villain. He put the gun to Deathwing's forehead.
"You and I are very ssssssimilar, young Draconian. We are one of a
kind, ssssstranded on a world that hatessssss and fearssssss ussssss. I
feel much pity for you," he said as he stared intently into Deathwing's
eyes. Deathwing looked up at Spyder. "I pity you, creature, for
you have lived for thousands of years trying to achieve a goal that will not be
accomplished!" With a roar, Deathwing flew into Spyder, tackling him
to the ground.
G64 held out Soultaker, readying the blade
for battle as he and Dracatron circled each other. Drac held his father's
swords and swung them around menacingly. "I killed my brother, and I
sure as hell will have no problem killing you," remarked Drac. He
charged at G64, who held out his sword to block the attack. With a flip,
G64 kicked Drac in the back of the head as he landed, causing Drac to stumble
forward. "You were saying?" G64 replied. Suddenly, Rex
Raptor jumped him from the side, knocking the agent down. Drac laughed.
"There's strength in numbers."
Shadow hid in the shadows, protecting UG90
from any and all attacks. "None shall harm you, young one. I
feel that your purpose is drawing near. Prepare yourself." He
parried an attack from an advancing Ninja as he made his last comment.
Another Ninja slowly stalked Shadow from behind, but UG90 saw him and kicked the
assassin in the groin. Shadow took notice and lopped off his head.
"Thank you," he said to UG90 as he repelled another attack.
Deathwing flew into the air again.
His target was still Omni. The telepath poured all of his attention into
protecting Fury and DaRokSez. At least, that's what Deathwing thought.
Just as the Draconian reached the altar, Omni held out his hand and, using his
mind, held Deathwing in place. The dragon struggled but he couldn't move.
Using his last ounce of strength, he launched a fireball at Omni. The
projectile landed next to Omni and sent him to the wall a few meters away as the
flame exploded. Deathwing dropped to the ground, exhausted. He had
done his job. Now it was up to the others.
