A/N: Alexander, Luke, and Sam are unawareof the Greek and Egyptian Dieties being poised for Battle. Alexander is vaguely aware of them and Luke and Sam know almost nothing. None of the three know Sassassa's true identity, yet. The Luke in this book has absolutely nothing to do with the Luke/Kronos guy in the Percy Jackson series, and actually the first ideas of the book in the writing proccess came before The Lightning Theif... That should cover everything.
Crystal's Alexander unlocked the door to Delshezre's base. He set down his Pilel balls on his desk. He hung up the coat and took his Pilels into the safe. He pulled out a journal and began writing when a messenger knocked.
"Come in!" yelled Alexander.
"Luke and Sam are coming in, so open up the ports!" said the messenger.
Alexander ran to the dock control. When Luke was steering in, he opened up port 5 of 7, set 2, and two messengers escorted them in. Now, dear reader, keep this in mind: Port 5 of 7, set 2.
When the two arrived, they talked about Dracolite at Vista Beach and Beautistreams and the Unowns' safety and how Dracolite could protect them.
Alexander pondered this, but he was quite skeptical. He went into Region Leader Central, where the region leaders lived.
Ataloure's region leader Malcolm, the closest to Dracolite said that they should try it. Alexander then began arguing with himself. Jonathan said it wasn't necessary, making an even harder decision. Eventually Alexander decided that he would have to get this off of his mind by heading to the Spartan Point Smoothie Shack.
Even there, however, he found himself with Sam and Luke once again and they brought up the subject. This was getting rather irritating. Why wouldn't they stop appearing everywhere? However, at least for now, they were talking about it.
"We don't have enough time to give the Wild Restriction process," said Alexander. "Fortunately Dracolite doesn't know slick, but it could take over six months! If Team O really wants to steal Beautistreams, they would do something within 6 months."
"We could do it, and guard the Pilel at the same time," said Sam.
"So you are going to spend six months in a tent in the Gyxyby Crystal Mines with Someone watching the 3rd most powerful Pilel trying to train the 6th most powerful Pilel with the 2nd most powerful Pilel and the 11th most powerful Pilel next to you, all those Pilels next to 26 Pilels that stand for Kings, Battle, Carnage, Death, Ends, Fighting, Gore, Happiness, Ice, Jumping, Killing, Love, Murder, Nothingness, Optimism, Peace, Queens, Rest, Suffering, Treason, Undercover, Voice, War, X-ray, Youth, and Zephyr."
"Pretty much," said Sam, although he was beginning to realize that this wasn't a great idea anymore.
"Well, I will dwell on that, but if you see something, tell me," said Alexander.
There was a long silence as Luke munched on his Cheeseburger. When he finished eating, he looked at Alexander and said, "I've been meaning to ask you, what do you think of our plan?"
"What plan?"
"Sam and I had a plan to protect Beautistreams and the Unins by guarding them with Dracolite."
Alexander looked at Sam, who looked at him. Both of them clearly had a look on there face saying, "Why was he the one that stole 10-30 back from Sassassa...
Alexander received a Text Message saying: back 2 base, urgent assist needed. bring all cptns.
"We need to get back to the base. NOW," said Alexander. He tossed twenty steel CrystalCurrency coins, minted in Ataloure's base, tossed them on the counter, and dashed away to the Pegasi Pilel Paddiosaur and ran off.
A/N: You may wonder why Team Crystal is allowed to pay with coins that they make. Note that the Pilel Economy remains stable because Team Crystal mints less money, actually, than they would otherwise have, because they are so rich. Around 30% of their money is minted by Team B and X.
They flew away into the clear blue sky as Paddiosaur flew very fast. Paddiosaur was the only Pilel not designed by Alexandrondon and Seacor, being the Son of Pegasus son of Medusa, daughter of Phorcys, son of Pontus, son of Gaia, Daughter of Chaos. He flew to Pilelalia as it was being formed and was accepted there for having more power than the Air Pilel Dracolite (though not as fast)
Paddiosaur was still very fast, but Mestral Mountain was halfway across Delshezre and according to the text message, they needed Dracolite times 2 to get there in efficient form. Around a half hour later, Paddiosaur did make it and they swooped into Sacred Lake's cave, landed on the shore, and entered the hidden base. A messenger grabbed them and ordered them to go high-speed underground transfer to Delshezre dock base.
"Hold on, we give the orders here," said Sam
"Order of Schabloi, commander of the Navy."
"I outrank him too!"
"Circumstantial leadership," said the messenger, "Crystal Instructions for Emergency Moments, but no time. Come on"
"They didn't grab Beautistreams, did they?" asked Alexander.
"If the info that Schabloi told me on your plan is true, that is all that they have to do. Now come on!"
"What happened?!" demanded Sam.
"Just come!"
"No! I demand to-"
Alexander cut him off. "Go."
The messenger took them to Schabloi who was nervously staring at a computer at Delshezre's dock base. They walked up to him and he filled them in.
"We have a leak. I have ordered Captain Phrondaic to search for a Spy to catch that leak. Someone smart and good at the business, but at the moment, we have more important things to worry about. Sassassa seems to have gone insane. There is actually WORSE news than this, but our biggest threat at the moment is that they are sending their whole Navy as well as Team A's. I have radioed Mark from Team B and he is coming. We need to throw the Elite 10 at them, and 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are gone. Christina should arrive any minute with Drygo and Scorpial, and Sam has Sambot, his own Creation."
"That's it?" asked Luke.
"Yeah, for now."
Christina entered through the door with Drygo flying in behind her. Madeline and Elgress walked in next. They were ready for battle.
A/N: The Region Leaders and Phantom Center Trainers are the best trainers in the world that are not on a Team. Kaekya: Joseph, Ataloure: Malcolm, Gyxyby: Jonathan, Delshezre: Charles, Baraxy: Christina. The 8 Phantom Center Trainers are Steven, Lane, Paulo, Daniel, Susanna, Taylor, Elgress, and Madeline. That might clear major headaches.
The seven boarded the Crystallex 3 Navy Ship and sailed the single ship to an approaching fleet coming from two fronts. Then, suddenly, Alexander yelled, "Isoculo, Freeze!" The water in front of the incoming fleet turned to Ice. "Paddiosaur, Wingbeat!"
Everyone on the Crystallex 3 instinctively ducked and covered their ears. Paddiosaur let off a huge Sonicboom that literally shattered the Ice to shards and was such a blast that the whole fleet never bothered to keep coming.
"And that," Alexander said like he was an instructor teaching children, "Is how you defeat two Navies with one ship."
"But Captain," said Christina, "Might I inquire what the Ice was for?"
"Well it stopped them, and when a SonicBoom from 1000 yards away destroys 3 feet of Ice just like that, it sends a pretty good message. Strike could have done it too, you know."
"Very well done," said Madeline. That would have been the time in which normal people would kneel down and bow, due to the fact that Madeline was the best battler in the Phantom Center, and praise from Christina and Elgress would be the same, but not to Alexander. He, of course could defeat any of those three in any order, and took that comment as if it was expected, although not in a selfish way.
A messenger came up next to them on the deck. Sam turned to face him. He said, "Schabloi would like to speak with one of you."
"I'll go," said Sam. "Alexander! I'm gonna be on the phone with Schabloi!"
"Okay!"
The messenger directed Sam to the bridge. He picked up the phone.
"Hello, this is Captain Sam speaking, Crystallex 3. What is the issue?"
"I received word that you seven were battling all the ships somehow. Then there was a loud blast that sounded like a SonicBoom, and then I received word that they were turning around."
"Yeah, that's what it was."
"Well your victory is going to be short. You need to go to Ataloure now. You know what I said about the WORSE news?"
"What?"
"Well it is about Dracolite. He's in a-*static*-Do you have-*static*-Uh oh. You can't-*static*"
Then there was a static voice. Sassassa in Gyxyby, making a radio transmission to Delshezre. "We need 5 gallons of-*static*"
Schabloi: "Can you hear-*static*
Sassassa: "Hello-*static*
Sassassa must have given up because of the interference was crazy.
Schabloi: "Can you read me!?"
Sam: "I read you. Continue."
But Sam was thinking on something else. 5 gallons of what?
Plumber's Putty? Milk? Sludge? Who knows?
