Chapter .4
Vincent and Catherine rode the lift back down to lobby, when the door opened Catherine stepped out as she rubbed her head. "Well, that could have gone better." She saw Vincent walking towards the entrance. Catherine grabbed Vincent's arm. "You can't go yet."
Vincent pulled his arm away. "I can go wherever I want."
"Just fallow me." Catherine opened a menu and a door appeared. She opened the door to go in but Vincent stepped in before her. Inside we a plain room with a large round table in the center. "Time to explain the situation." Catherine opened the menu again to make a sofa appear. "Come over here." Catherine takes a seat and pats the seat next to her.
Vincent opened his own menu and summon a chair on the other side of the table. "Let's get this over with."
Catherine shakes her head as she lowers the lights and the same map from the war room appear on the table. "This is where we stand. The opal legion is a medium sized one at war with two others, the amber and sapphire. Amber is only a few months old and has grown fast with sapphire's help, and now they've turned to fight us."
Vincent looked over the map. "What about the others?"
"The larger legions are emerald, topaz, and ruby, ruby being the biggest. Emerald has been fighting topaz for a while and winning, until ruby stepped in to help topaz, why we still don't know."
Among the colors Vincent spotted a small area in purple then pointed to it. "What about that one?"
"That's amethyst. A small nothing."
"If it's nothing, why not take it?"
"Sapphire tried but were beaten back. Opal tried but were beaten back. So both have decided to just leave it till the other is gone and have more territory."
Vincent leaned back in his seat. "So what's plan?"
"Every Saturday is when the territory fights happen. They can be one vs one, two on two, or three on three. The side with the most points gets the territory."
"Points, not wins?"
Catherine tilts her head and grins. "You get more points from being higher level players and less from lower. As from you last fight."
"When do we start?"
Catherine checks her clock. "In a few minutes." Catherine waited for Vincent to speak but nothing happened. "Any questions?"
"Do I keep the points I get?"
"Already have plans for your points?" Catherine wear a devilish smile.
"Just want to know if I get anything for this." Vincent stood up and left the room. Outside everyone was gathering into groups, disguising battle plans and team pair ups. A message appeared before Vincent, asking if how he wanted to participate. Vincent pressed the single battle option and waited.
The world broke down and reshaped into one in the middle of being built. Vincent checked his settings to see the stage's name. "Construction Stage." Vincent closed the settings and drew his sword.
On one of the building a red avatar with a rocket launcher. They fired their weapon and Vincent dove forward and ran to the building the avatar. using his sword and blaster Vincent broke each of the support rods until the building started to collapse and ran out from under it, watching his special gauge fill up. When it was nothing but rubble the avatar's health dropped to half, the avatar climbed out of the rubble and Vincent used his charge shot to finish them.
BP 149 - 159
A message appeared before Vincent, asking if he wanted to keep fighting, Vincent pressed yes. Before Vincent appeared a blue avatar with dual swords.
"You ready to do this?" the avatar held out one his their swords.
Vincent raised his arm and fired his blaster, the avatar dashed towards Vincent with their swords crossed to block some of the lasers but was still getting hit. When they got close the avatar leaped into the air and raised their swords over head. As the blades came down Vincent side stepped the the swords and ran his own through the avatar's head. Vincent pulled his sword out then swung to decapitate them.
BP 159 - 169
Another massage appeared and Vincent hit yes again. A green armadillo-like avatar appear. Vincent fired his blaster but his shots weren't hurting it. The avatar curled up and rolled at Vincent. Vincent jumped to dodge but the avatar turned and struke him, taking a fifth of Vincent's health.
As the avatar rolled away Vincent stood up and shot at more buildings to build up his special gauge. The avatar turned to Vincent and rolled at him again. "Charge Shot!" Vincent fired at the avatar, his attack slowed it down but it's health was going down to slowly.
Vincent's blaster overheated and the green avatar rolled into him. The attack wasn't as strong but still took a chunk of Vincent's health. Getting back up Vincent ran to another building, cutting and blasting the support rods to refill his gauge as the avatar followed him. Before the building fully collapsed Vincent ran out from under it while his opponent was still under it.
The building fell apart but the avatar's health only went down a small bit. The avatar bursts out from the rubble and rolled towards Vincent. Vincent holds his sword out with both hands and exhales slowly. "One shot. Royal Cut!" Vincent raised his sword as it glowed then brought it straight down on the avatar. The enemy kept rolling into the blade, only taking minor damage as Vincent was pushed back.
Vincent pressed as hard as he could on his sword as he was sliding back, he looked over his shoulder to see he was going to crash into a cement wall. Vincent turned back to his sword as his gauge was going down. "Come on break! Break, break, break break, break! FUCKING BREAKING!" Fulled by rage Vincent pushed his feet into the ground, the two started to slow as sparks flew off his sword as it sank into the avatar until he cut them in half.
BP 169 - 179
Vincent was breathing hard and his head was hurting. The massage appeared again and Vincent hit yes.
Another red avatar appear, this one held dual pistols. Vincent ran at them while firing his blaster, red avatar fired their pistols but was backing away. Vincent was hitting the avatar but most of his shots were missing. The red avatar shots were more accurate, hitting Vincent with almost every bullet. Vincent saw his health dropping fasted then the avatar's and knew his couldn't win this way.
Vincent ran towards another building, this time using it for cover and to get to higher ground. The red avatar put away their pistols and hurled two grenades to bring the building down. Vincent leaped out from one of the windows swinging his his sword to cut the avatar in half.
BP 179 - 189
The messaged appear and Vincent punched the yes option then held out his blaster for whoever challenged him. As another blue avatar appeared, this one with its right arm three times bigger then their left. Vincent fired his blaster while the blue avatar held up their big arm to act as a shield and rushed Vincent. When they got close Vincent swung his sword but the avatar caught it with their left hand then punched Vincent with a larger right.
Vincent was sent flying back as half his health disappeared. "Nice blade." The avatar held the sword with both hands, trying to snap it. Vincent held out his right, aiming at the avatar. "Charge Shot!" Vincent put everything he had in his special gauge into the attack, a beam of orange light struke the avatar. The opponent threw down the sword and ran to Vincent.
Vincent stood up and ran to meet the avatar. The blue avatar swung they large arm and Vincent slid under the attack to get behind them and kept running until he got his sword back then waited. The avatar chased Vincent and tried again with another punch. Vincent ducked under the attack and again behind them, this time Vincent swung his blade to cut off their large arm then head.
BP 189 - 199
Vincent dropped to one knee, his breathing was getting worse as his head was spinning. The massage appeared again and Vincent reached up to press yes. "One more, then I'm done. I'm not gonna carry this legion." Vincent pushed himself up to his feet as a yellow avatar appeared.
The yellow avatar tilted their head, looking at Vincent. "Well you look like hell."
Vincent fired his blaster but his shots were missing. The yellow avatar threw down a smoke bomb to hide. Bombs flew out from the smoke and landed around Vincent, engulfing him in a large cloud. Vincent held up his sword, continuously spinning around as he watched for any movement. Vincent's head was hurting from the constant movement, Vincent placed his hand to the side of his head and felt a blade pierced his back.
Vincent dropped to one knee then turned as he swung his sword around, only hitting smoke. Vincent stood up and closed his eyes, taking a deep breath and he listened. He heard footsteps behind him, the footsteps were getting closer, Vincent spun around and swung his sword. The smoke started to fade and Vincent saw his enemy cut in half but still had health. Vincent held out his blaster and fired until their health was gone.
BP 199 - 209
Vincent fell back to lay on the ground, the massage again appeared and this time Vincent pressed no.
