The Legendary Warrior – Chapter 1-Prolouge
….
This was actually a dream I had and I thought "Why not continue it and Add to it?!" So I did. I'm still working out some things but I think it should turn out fairly well… not perfect but…well you get it. Oh and I think there will be some Bit/Leena later on. ;)
…….
This story takes place two years after the Royal Cup, in which Bit Cloud of the Blitz Team was victorious. After winning the battle, Bit paid the Doc back for everything he owed him and set off on his own with the Liger and its conversion parts. For an entire year Bit fought on the battle field alone winning every battle, until one day he just disappeared. Some believe he retired after winning so much money. While other's had darker thoughts; believing that someone jealous had done him in. No one had neither seen him nor heard of or from him. It was as if he had vanished from all existence along with the Liger Zero, the Legendary Ultimate X.
A few months after Bit had left the team, Brad followed teaming up with Naomi leaving Leon to himself. Leon however joined back up with the Blitz team again, taking his place that they had kept vacant for him.
The Flugel Team, Brad and Naomi, were in Class A and remained in this class along with The Blitz team who remained in the S class up until it happened.
The Backdraft struck again, this time with more power than before. They were able to over take the Zoid Battle Commission. However they became far more violent than any had thought. Unsanctioned battles became official, and the rules were demolished. Many Zoid warriors tried to stop this however the ones that did, either joined the Backdraft or were killed. Many Zoid warriors retired from this and went to find other jobs. While others who had no other talents were forced to continue to battle although it was strongly against their wishes.
Brad and Naomi were some of the few who continued. Brad had been used to the Backdraft giving the Blitz Team issues long before and figured, if that had been an easy win than this should be also. However Brad and Naomi, although both very talented pilots, did lose and lost more than they thought was possible. This brings us the present time…
Brad and Naomi had the target in view. Brad's Shadow Fox, now fairly beaten up, angled itself just right for the final strike. He lunged and struck the enemy hard on the back slicing off one of its barrels. Naomi took advantage of it having been knocked to the ground and sniped it from her position on a near by cliff.
They were in an arena made entirely of red rock. However encircling the round arena was a thick wall of hard iron. The arena had two large gates on either side where the opponents would enter through but would be closed tight until the battle was over. All battles were fought in arena's now instead of average landscapes.
Brad smirked. They had won...or so he thought. Another Zoid appeared out of no where. "What? Where did that Zoid come from? I thought we were supposed to be only up against two! Where did that Zoid com from? Judge! This isn't fair! We…"
The Judge cut him off. "There are no rules. That Zoid is part of the Blazer Team it's completely fair."
That was another thing. The Dark Judge always took the side of the Backdraft who had split into many teams. If the Backdraft cheated, although there are no rules, and brought another Zoid in the battle, it would be okay. However, if a team that wasn't on the Backdraft's side brought in another member they would be disqualified. In other words, the Backdraft always wins.
During the argument with the judge Naomi had been shot down and her command system frozen. Brad snapped his attention back to this new Zoid and lunged for it. It jumped out of the way spun around quickly and shot Brad to the ground, freezing his command system. "Damn It!" He shouted as the arena gates opened to let them out.
After the battle Brad and Naomi were sitting by their camp fire sulking. "I can't believe this; Class C! We're looking worse than the Tiger's Team did!" Brad was throwing a tantrum. He stood up and started pacing. "How are we supposed to get our Zoids fixed now? We haven't got any money! And we have a battle tomorrow."
"Maybe we'll win tomorrow. We have a chance after all." Naomi tried to look to the bright side although things were looking grim.
"Fine." Brad said sitting down still steamed. He couldn't argue much with Naomi, he liked her too much.
The next morning Naomi and Brad set out for their next battle. It was in the same arena as yesterday and still against the Backdraft.
The Judge arrived and announced the Battle settings. "Also this battle will be a 'double or nothing' match!"
"What?" Brad had heard of these battles, they happened at random to unsuspecting teams. He hadn't actually thought this battle would be one! In these battles the winning team took the other team's Zoids. "No way! I refuse to battle." Brad announced.
"Then you forfeit the match and lose anyway." The Judge said cocking its mechanical head to one side.
"What?" Brad was beside himself. This was getting ridiculous. In a fury and yelled at the Judge. He had had it. "Fine! Then I'll never battle or take part in your stupid battles again!" Before he realized what he said it was out of his mouth. "Shit." He whispered to himself.
"Brad!" Naomi was mad.
The Judge laughed. "Fine then The Dark Team wins! Your Zoids now belong to them!"
The Backdraft members took the Zoids and left, leaving Brad and Naomi stranded. They had no other transportation. And it wasn't going to be a pleasant walk.
Naomi refused to talk to Brad as they walked through the desert. Brad felt guilty enough. They lost everything and now they were stranded in the desert. Things weren't looking up.
After walking for hours they finally came to a small dingy inn. It was the only building for miles and wasn't too popular. Brad used what money they had to buy some food and water and a room. Naomi still wasn't talking to him. Brad decided to lie down. He heard Naomi talking with the Inn Keeper telling the man about his huge mistakes. Brad groaned lightly and rolled over. Then he heard something new.
"Yes, I hear the Legendary Warrior is around. Not sure if it's true though. You never can believe what you hear anymore."
"Who's this Legendary Warrior?" Naomi asked.
"Why he's the one who defeated the Backdraft when they tried to take over the ZBC two years ago. He was a kid then, oh what was his name…"
Brad jumped up and ripped open the door. "Bit Cloud!"
The Inn Keeper and Naomi were both surprised. "Why yes, I believe that's it!"
"Where do the rumors say he is?" Brad asked calming himself down. If Bit had defeated them before he can defeat them again! Can't he?
"They don't. They just say he's around." The Inn Keeper said then he turned and headed for the kitchen to check the food.
"I was able to get us some jobs working here." Naomi said not realizing she was changing the subject.
Brad didn't reply. He seemed distant to her.
"Brad, are you okay?"
"I'm going to stop the Backdraft!" Brad said finally with determination in his eyes. "I'm going to find The Legendary Warrior and get him the help."
"But we don't even know if the rumors are true, not to mention, if he really is around would he really help us?"
"Of course he would." Brad began to have doubts Bit had gone missing for an entire year. Who knows if he really would want to come out from hiding? "Wouldn't he?"
