Epilogue 3
Epilogue 3
A new Beginning
(by Mahajarah)
(The War is over, and the world is in ruins. A good third of humanity has been decimated by the Scissor Army, and the surviving population is close to chaos.
After encounters of the worst kind, Deep Impact has finally been reunited and brought back to the light. A close cooperation with the RPD allowed them to replicate some of their recent upgrades on Clownman and Tenguman.
Now, the Impacters are heading for Kaliningrad, the last place where Frostman was seen, in the hope to find him.)
Search: Inquiry: Astro, have you found him yet?
Astro: I'm afraid not. There's just too many of them. For god's sake, you think someone wouldn't throw away a perfectly good robot shell.Search : Response: He was aligned with the Army at that time. Question: How come they didn't try to retrieve him before ?*The DI is in one of the many numerous garbage dumps looking for someone in particular... Someone lost for what seemed to be years.*
*All of a sudden, a flash of light shimmers in the sky*
Search: Exclamation: He found him !!*Almost tripping over himself, the drastically different Searchman darts towards the flare, running over remains of robots and technology.*
Astro: (Hovering over Search) Do you think he's okay?Search: Response: I sure hope so !!*Upon reaching the flash of light, They see a sleek Grenademan buring in a ton of rubble.*
Grenade: (Waves) He's under here!*Aqua appears from under some rubble, struggling with a giand hand. Realizing who this was, Astro, and Search immediately start to pull up...*
Astro: Frost! (Hugging the shell)*The deactivated shell's eyes glimmer, and a tired voice echoes out of it, weakly looking at the slender Astro*
Frost: SS..SatTTuUrn... It's Actually you. I .. I THhoug....Search: Suggestion: Save your power. We'll get you back to our base in no time.*In the distance, a loud bang, followed by a needle-nosed robot flew over the re-united Team, and screeched loudly to a halt*
Tengu: We've got to go! We've been spotted!!Grenade: WHAT? Where's Blaze ?Tengu: In the escape convoy. We've got no time!!Grenade: Right, get Frost and let's get the hell out of here!Search: I couldn't agree more.Tengu: Right!! (Pointing his hand out) Wind Cage.*Frost's shell is encased in a ball of wind, and dragged behind by Tengu as the team run to their convoy*
Clown: *Along the top of the Escape Convoy, A Scavenged Dump Truck* ...! THERE THEY ARE! Stomp it stomp it stomp it!*Sword immediately pushes on the gas, lurching the vehicle foward, Clown hanging onto the top of the bed via his extendable arms.*
Tengu: (Setting Frost down) GO GO GO GO!!!*Sword stomps the gas as hard as he can, and the vehicle easily shoots foward. Search and Grenade barely manage to jump onto the vehicle and Astro easily drafts behind it.*
Grenade: Captain, where did you see them?Tengu: They were on motorcycles. They opened fire, and I darted here, just like we agreed.Search (stepping onto the roof, his legs reversing into a bi-pedial type and his 'Radar' head activating) : Well, They won't get us.Grenade: Right. We can't let them... Not after all of this.*Search's eyes zoomed into the horizon*
Search: I don't see them. Trying x100 Times.*Search sees something slightly move in the distance, and then dart towards them.*
Search : Horror.*Grenade hops onto the roof of the convoy and readies his new and improved Grenade Arm, and rapid-fires multiple energy grenades. The horror acrobatically side steps and flips over each one. It finally reaches the convoy and attempts to jump on, only to be sliced in half by Tengu's Wind Blade*
Horror: Ahahahahahahaha!!! Nice try there.* The two halfs morph into two different horrors.*
Horror #1: Name's Xanthis.
Horror #2: And Xorid.Both: And we're here to cut, <claps twice> You up!!~
Everyone: ...Xanthis: ... What? No response?Xorid: Tough crowd... Oh I know what always makes a crowd laugh... BLOOD!*And with the thrust of his palm, Xorid shoots out a wave of blood. It almost overcomes the Impacters on the roof, and then is suddenly frozen, forming a ten foot barrier between them and the Horrors*
Frost: No onNNne.. Will be Hu..rt. today... I ProMis..e This.Search: Frost...*The wall melts away*
Xorid: Well, that's interesting, I mean, I figured you were just about dead. Tell you what, why don't y'all join us, The perks are infinite.Xanthis: Yeah, You all would enjoy immortality, wouldn't you?*He takes a step foward on his cloven feet.*
Xanthis: What do you say?Tengu : Who, or what, do you work for ?Xorid *scratching his head* : Funny thing. Worked with the man for millenias, and he never told his name. Any ideas, buddy ?Xanthis : Same here. Not that it matters. So, what do you say ?Clown: How about a punchline? *Aims his arm at Xanthis, and a small click is heard.**Xanthis's chest blows out as Clown's fist plows through it, and wraps around him. Clown's other arm misses Xorid.*
Xorid: INGRATEFUL BRAT! <Launches a wave of blood at Clown.>Tengu: *Cutting through it.* WANNA-BE DEMON! YURAMESHI! *launches a glove of wind that carries Xorid from the convoy, tossing him to the ground below, violently tearing him apart, with no blood.*Xanthis: *Grabs Clown's arm and jerks him foward.* Confident, are we?*Clown is met with a burst of fire that shoots him off the convoy.*
Xanthis: All of you need to be taught is A LESSON! <Jumps off the convoy and runs beside it> ENERGY DAN!*Focusing multiple energy balls into his hand, he violently riddles the almost worn down truck with holes.*
Search: No you don't! <Aims his Railgun at Xanthis while readying his Homing Sniper, and opens fire>*The left side of the truck obliterated, and the axle almost dead, the demon runs ahead of the truck and to the right side, while side-stepping the rail gun, but gets hit on his head on by a grenade*
Grenade: NOW!!Search: HOMING SNIPER! *Two pods open on his back, and 24 missiles shoot out.**The missiles rain down onto Xanthis, who couldn't dodge all of the high speed sonic missiles. Xanthis disappears in a hail of fire and shrapnel, which shreds apart the right tire, leaving the convoy grinding on the ground.*
Clown: <Hanging from the roof> NOTGOODNOTGOODNOTGOODNOTGOODNOTGOODNOTGOODNOTGOOD!!Sword: Relax. I got this under... <Looks into the read veiw mirror, and sees a tsunami of blood>... Sh*t.*The convoy barrels through the gate, followed by a 40 Ft wave of blood and debris, Xorid riding in front.*
Xorid: COME ON! IT'LL ONLY HURT FOR A SECOND!!Sword: Screw this.*Grabs Clown, and jerks him into the driving wheel, and jump onto the roof with one hand*
Sword: I'm doing it. I'll know I did some good this way.Grenade: What? You're insane ! You know that you'll drain your soul and you won't be able to don your armor again!Sword: I don't want too. I'm done. I'm going back to the good life : Virus busting, drinks at the Bar and Grill... I'm finished.Tengu: Blaze...Sword: Look, don't dwell on it. I... <Is cut off by the jerk to the right as the convoy begins to swerve>Clown: CAN'T KEEP THIS UP! I NEED MORE DILITHIUM CRYSTALS CAPTAIN, BUT I'M GIVING HER ALL SHE'S GOT!Sword: No time! See you later! <Runs and jumps off the convoy, and focuses a major amount of power onto the blade>Tengu: SWORD!Sword: PHALANX WAVE!*In a swipe of his sword, Sword releases a wave of heat, hot enough to evaporate the blood on contact, cooking the rest of it into grease that fell harmlessly to the ground.*
Xorid: GRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! *Dissipates in anguish.*Sword: It's over... *Falls to the ground onto his knees, as he glows a white color, and returns to his normal form.*
Blaze: ... I can finally... relax.
Honour: *Telepathically* You've made an ill choice, but I can understand why. We'll find another bearer.Blaze: Did they get out okay?Honour: They teleported out as soon as they could, just before the hydrogen cell they rigged exploded. Do you need a teleport back to civilization ?Blaze: No, I got it covered.*Taps a small device on his arm, and sits.*
Blaze: My teleport should come in soon enough.Honour: Have it your way.Blaze: Trust me, I'd have it no other.*Blaze looks foward onto the barren landscape.*
Blaze: Here's hoping everything turns out okay...MEANWHILE...
*In a dark lit room.*
???: Well, it seems like one of the Impacters has fallen.
???: Perfect. That's one down, seven to go.
???: *Feminine voice* Well, can't they replace him?
???: Yes, but we can force them to our side with luck. The avatar will love this news.
