The Sacred Swords
The Vault Robbery
In a vault in New Camelot, the Arkeyan Robots on guard duty had all been destroyed as alarms were ringing out loud and red lights were flashing everywhere. A water monster could be seen tossing yet another Arkeyan Robot to the side in the process.
"All right Stacey that's enough!" a voice said to the water monster now known as Stacey.
"Yes we can't afford to stay here any longer. Time is short," A second voice spoke.
The water monster now identified as Stacey dropped the robot after having killed all the Arkeyan Sorcerers guarding the vault and they left the scene as more robots and Sorcerers arrived and with Pyrrah leading the new group before ordering the vault gates sealed.
"Well what am I gonna tell the Emperor's sisters now?" Pyrrah asked an Arkeyan Duelist nearby
"Tell them the truth," the Arkeyan Robot in question said, "All but one of the seven sacred swords have been stolen."
Pyrrah sighed knowing she had to report this to the top. Fortunately for her, the Arkeyan Sorcerer King Drake was away on vacation for a week and so were his sisters Reina and Rita which left Rose and Sara in charge for the time being which in turn made things easier for her since she was one of the more peaceful Arkeyans.
Meanwhile on Earth Jade was training with the new Swap Force Skylanders she had recently found when she suddenly found herself face to face with Captain Black.
"Heads up jade I'm supposed to take you to my office in Section 13," Black said, "I've been ordered by the Arkeyan Sorceress Queens, Rose and Sara to give you this case. Queen Rose and Queen Sara will give you the information on what it is that you and the Swap Force must retrieve."
Jade practically cheered loudly at the fact that she was being given a very big case and it was from the Arkeyan Royal Family to boot. Jade and Black showed up in Black's office where they met up with Rose and Sara who in turn gave Jade the briefing on her very first case as a Portal Master in Training and the chance to put what little training she had received from Master Eon's spirit to the test.
"So let me see if I got this right now," Jade said, "Five Criminals have broken into your brother's vault, stolen all but one of the sacred swords, slaughtered the Arkeyan Sorcerers guarding the vault and destroyed the Arkeyan Robots as well?"
"That's pretty much it," Rose said, "And you've got less than a week to retrieve those Swords."
"The fate of the universe is counting on this," Sara said.
"What's gonna happen if I fail?" Jade asked.
"That's not your big concern. Your chief concern will be recovering the sacred swords," Rose said briefing Jade on the information on each sacred sword, "Crewenann will allow the user to teleport themselves all over the world only for short periods. Clarent grants the wielder immunity to anything but age, Galatine grants the power of shape shifting to whoever holds it and its twin. Laevatein allows the wielder to shoot lightning and Arondight grants the wielder the ability to turn into a living specter in battle. The last two sacred swords have powers that balance each other out so its vital that you and the Swap Force Skylanders get them back and fast. As the only Portal Master our people don't seem to despise at this point you are the only one we can give this mission to so its up to you and the Swap Force Skylanders."
"Those swords look so cool," Jade cheered, "I wonder what the remaining two swords do."
"Can we please get back to the task at hand?" Black asked.
"Black is right Jade. Understand that these swords were created over 10,000 years ago by the first Sorcerer King and the First Robot King of the Arkeyan Empire and the first Sorcerer King was our direct ancestor," Sara said seriously, "These swords were also forged with the magic of the volcano of the Cloudbreak Isles and the Eternal Sources and have traces of the Darkness and Light energy in them. They play a vital role in our empire's history and in keeping the balance of life but in the wrong hands they can also destroy life and tip the scales towards evil. Get them Jade, as a Portal Master here on Earth you are the only hope we have while the criminals who've stolen the swords are here on earth."
"You both had the spirit of Eon train me in being a Portal Master," Jade said, "So this is a good test of my training and besides I helped save the world multiple times."
Jade left with the Swap Force Skylanders as Rose and Sara left for New Camelot leaving Captain black sighing knowing full well that Governess Aqua had made plans to have him demoted all the way back to deck clerk for the dishonor he committed against the empire if her relatives don't decided to work him to death for all eternity like they did to Katie and Jordan for taking Mikey's side and all the other adults who lectured Aqua's student on how she stood up for Wally but before he could continue thinking Kepler showed up in his office with a stack of files on the vault thieves.
"Sir I've got data on the criminals and so does Pyrrah," Kepler said to his boss.
"Show me at once Kepler," Black said, "The Arkeyans are gearing up for war as we speak."
"Yes of course. Her name is Yang Mei and that's all we know of her. She's a sorceress from Skylands. Somehow she's avoided all of our files. Amara is another mystery case, No criminal record, origin unknown though informants all describe her as a real cutthroat definitely a loner. Next we got Michelle and she's rarely seen without Amara so we can safely say that she also had a hand in the vault robbery. After that we've got Akiza and all we know is that she comes from a family that trains in the life element but they're not Arkeyan sorcerers. We found no links. Last we got Stacey, now she's your run of the mill enemy of the Arkeyan Empire, broke out of federal prison, killed all the Arkeyans at the vault that were protecting it and killed the last 20 Arkeyan Sorcerers assigned to bring her back to prison after her escape. Murdering Arkeyans seems to be her new hobby. It's a rough bunch sir," Kepler explained clearly.
"I expected a pretty rough bunch and if I know Jackie he's already taking his complaints to the Royal Family by now," Black sighed not knowing how right he was.
"You two must be out of your minds!" Jackie shouted to Rose and Sara in new Camelot.
"Jackie you showed up," Sara said surprised to see Jackie present, "We didn't think you would considering the Governors all branded you as an enemy of the Arkeyan Empire."
"You think I wouldn't when you sent my niece to a pack of wolves," Jackie snapped, "All five of these criminals are giving off tremendous amounts of energy and they're brutally strong from what the informants say. They'll rip Jade into pieces."
"Yes, yes we understand the odds are against her and the swap force and we would've preferred to start her and the swap force on smaller jobs till Jade's abilities grew but with this new case we had no choice. It was either her or Ice and he's busy on another case from Imperial General Percival right now," Rose explained.
"Fine give her the case but let me or Adinda train her first," Jackie begged.
"How much could she learn in less than a week?" Sara asked before groaning.
"Less than a week?! Surely those criminals can't cause a lot of damage to the earth in that little time can they?" Jackie asked wondering if the crooks could do a lot of damage in a little time.
"The crooks could do a lot of damage to the earth in that little time but they're not the problem," Sara groaned again, "In a week our brother and sisters return from vacation."
a head shot of the Arkeyan Sorcerer King Drake and a head shot of the Arkeyan Sorceress Queens Reina and Rita each appeared on the monitor behind Jackie causing him to gasp in fear and terror.
"Emperor Drake, Empress Reina, and Empress Rita are coming back?" Jackie asked scared.
"The one thing they always tell us is to protect the King's vault but we didn't think someone would actually break in," Rose said already groaning at what would come next from Jackie.
"Will the Emperor scold and or beat us to a pulp?" A terrified Jackie asked the twins.
"I'm afraid ours will be a minor issue if our elder brother gets mad the entire universe will suffer," Sara spoke.
"Can't you two just explain it?" Jackie asked hoping to avoid a fight and spare the universe in the process.
"You know how he, our sisters and most of our people have been since the Governors enslaved the entire universe because of the crimes Shendu committed against our people," Rose reminded as images of destroyed cities and a volcano blowing up appeared on the screen behind Jackie, "Everything's become fire and brimstone with them. He might resort to destroying Earth, Avalon and every star and planet in their respective galaxies to get those swords back."
"That's why we had to send Jade without the proper training and that's why she's only got a week to return those swords. She's got to for the sake of her planet," Sara added, "Jade must defeat those criminals even at the cost of her own life."
"I understand and I'll return to Earth to help Jade as much as I can," Jackie said before returning to Planet Earth.
"Jade is our one hope for retrieving those swords before the Emperor returns don't forget that Jackie," Rose spoke.
"Are you sure leaving this case to Jade and the Swap Force is a good idea?" Pyrrah asked Rose and Sara. "Why would you even do that?"
"Because Jade is the only hope we have of recovering those swords without our older siblings finding out that somebody broke into the vault and slaughtered all the Arkeyans on duty," Sara spoke, "and if the Governors find out, let's just say that what they'll do to us is nothing compared to what they'll do to all of existence."
