Hello! I'm back and I have a new chapter! In this you will see what really happens and how Chase got into that mess. Enjoy!
Before the attack
Team Core- tech was riding Charger in the woods, in order to find the base. Well, it was very beautiful. Beyal especially enjoyed it, he liked the quiet and the nature. Jinja also found it relaxing.
"Ahhh, it feels so good to be in the wood! The trees, the air, the animals..." Jinja said.
"Yes, Jinja. It's great. If we weren't on a mission, I would like to stay here for a while." Beyal agreed. Jinja blushed.
On the other side, the boys were caring less about the nature. Chase was focused on the aim, Bren was doing his calculations, and Dax was playing with his core. Jinja wasn't expecting anything more.
"Bren, how much 'till we get?" Chase asked.
"Um…if we get on the end of the passway, we can see it clearly." he applied. When they reached the dead end, they could see base. The problem is that they could see all of it. They couldn't believe their eyes. On the ground was thousands of H- trams, hoppers, and soldiers. On the air there were three cloud-carriers. And the base was huge. The teens were left with mouths open.
"Whoa.. it's like they brought the whole STORM here." Dax said.
"It's okay guys. We got this. It's… just a simple base after all.." Chase said nervous.
"JUST A SIMPLE BASE?!" Jinja yelled. "Are you crazy?! It's huge! We're not gonna make it!"
"Maybe Jinja's right, Chase. We should not do this." Beyal said. The raven-haired teen looked at him.
"Listen. We need that energy. So does the whole world. We have to take it at any cost. We've gone this far. Are we going to give up now?" he said with serious eyes. The rest team noticed it.
"A..Alright. We are doing it." Bren said.
Now
The team was attacking STORM. They were separated into two groups. Beyal, Bren and Jinja were looking inside the base for the energy, Dax was making up time for the others to find it (by destroying the helicopters etc.) Chase was supposed to do the same, but, during the mess, Charlemagne turned up. Well, now their day couldn't go any worse.
"Chase Suno. This time, prepare to meet your doom." she said.
"Yeah, yeah. You know, you say that every time, but unfortunately for you, that doesn't happens. Neither today. So, why don't you stop talking nonsense and fight?" he said sarcastically.
"As you wish. Driftblade, launch!"
"Lock, launch!"
The two cores clashed and yellow-blue glow burst out. The two monsunos roared and the battle begun. Then Charlemagne took something off her pocket. It was a Strike Gear.
"Strike Gear, launch!" she yelled. Chase frowned. He reached his pocket, in order to take out his gear. His eyes widened when he realized that his pocket was empty. He had forgotten his gear in the train.
"Crag, at a time like this..." he cursed. It looks like that this time he was going to fight at a disadvantage. A big disadvantage. Suddenly Charlemagne spoke up.
"Always come prepared for a battle. That's a cardinal rule." Chase hissed.
"Oh, yeah? Well, even without help, i can still beat you!" he said. But inside him, he was not that confident.
Charlemagne laughed. "Hahaha...don't be so full of yourself, Suno. Driftblade, destroy him."
Inside the base, the soldiers were running everywhere, as the siren was echoing in the hallways. The three kids, who were hiding inside the vents.
"There sure is a chaos down there. How are we supposed to get the energy with this army around? I mean, we can't just walk around. Any ideas?" Jinja asked.
"Well, I have an idea..." Bren said faltered.
"What?" Jinja asked him.
After a few minutes, there was an explosion in the base. Some soldiers run away, and it wasn't the explosion which scared them, but the monsuno.
"Good boy Longfang!" Bren said happily, hugging his 'little' animal.
"Let's ask one of them where this energy is." Beyal said reaching a soldier who was lying on the ground.
"Don't hurt me! Please!" he cried.
"Can you please tell us where is the big energy?" Beyal asked politly.
"What? I...I can't do that!".But a glance at the monsuno made him change his mind.
With Dax
Dax was flying on Airswitch, and taking out the transport techs.
"Man, there's no end to them. And I was hoping to battle...damn that Chase! He wants to get all the fun!" he complained. "When I take care of the rest, I'll go there. To give him a punch, that is!"
And now with our battle
Lock was running straight for a hit, but Driftblade was too fast. Then with his Gear caught Lock, swung him in the air and threw him down. Chase quickly saw his core, Lock had lost some energy.
"Lock! Get up! Hit him with Jaw of Light!" he ordered. Lock quickly opened his mouth and white light came out and hit Driftblade. But even with it, Driftblade hasn't suffered that damage. Chase hissed.
"Give it up Suno." said Charlemagne. "Just face it that you can't beat me. Not without you Strike Gear.". She looked at him. She could clearly see the worry on his face.
That moment, Driftblade aimed his electric shock wave towards Lock. "Lock! Avoid it!" Chase yelled.
Lock did as his controller said, but he didn't see that Driftblade had transported right behind him.
"What?! How can he?...So fast! Lock!" the boy said.
But it was too late. Driftblade had already hit the polar-bear very hard. Lock roared of pain.
"Lock, no! Get out of there!". Chase said. He looked again his core. Now Lock had lesser than his half energy. What was he going to do now? Suddenly, his friends showed up. So did a bunch of STORM soldiers.
"Guys! You came! Thank God, you turned out to be alright!" he said happy.
"We did it Chase! We took the energy! Now let's get out of here!" Bren said. But then, Lock begun to glow and returned to his core. So did Driftblade, after plugging off his Strike Gear. Then the team was surrounded by soldiers. Everyone was about to spin out but then Charlemagne spoke.
"Do it, if you dare. Just a move, and we will fire at you. Or you could just surrender nicely. Your choice. Chase thought for a while, and with eyes full of emotion, he said;
"Charlemagne, I….I want to do a deal with you."
Charlemagne had a puzzled look on her face "What is he up to?". "What is it?" she asked.
"I...I want you to release my friends right away, and let them get the energy, and in exchange...I will surrender.". His friends eyes when they heard that widened.
"Haha...Chase...pal...you're joking, right?" Dax asked him with a nervous look. "Because if it's a joke, it's not funny at all!"
"Chase...you really mean it? If you do...please no..." Jinja pleased him. So did Bren and Beyal.
"I mean it. I will do anything to protect you guys." he said."So, do we have a deal?"
Charlemagne kept silent. Then she answered. "Alright, if that's your wish, I will respect it."
"But first, release my friends right now!" he demanded. Charlemagne nodded. She turned to her guards. "Leave the other kids go. But make sure that if they are going to spin monsuno, shoot them!"
"Yes ma'am!" they said and reached the kids pointing them with guns.
"Move! We are going to take you away from here. Now get to that hopper!" one soldier said. The teens ignored him and rushed to Chase, who was standing chill. The guards quickly grabbed them and dragged them to where the hopper was.
"Chase, no!" they yelled and tried to shake off the guards hands.
"Let go! Chase!" Dax yelled. Bren was crying. Beyal was trying to escape, but he couldn't do anything. Jinja was cursing the guards. Then they got into the hopper and flied away. After a few minutes, the soldiers left them near a city, and returned back to the base.
Chase slowly begun to walk towards Charlemagne, with his hands above his head. As he was walking, he remembered all the things he and his team did together. Was he really, going to see them again? And his father? He tricked him and he didn't even said him goodbye. Maybe he wasn't going to see Lock again, or his other monsuno. Well, at least he hoped for his team to save the planet from destruction. He hoped. Was it really the end?
As he arrived to them, a tornado of loud voices and demands were echoing inside his head. He forcefully sit down on his knees and the guards wore him handcuffs behind his back. Then a tear dropped on his cheek. Damn, he didn't want them to see that he was soft and cry-baby. But in the situation he was in, he couldn't do less.
-REVIEW! PLEASE, REVIEW! XD
