And we are back
"Well well well what do we have here?" Hades asked calmy.
"It's been long Hades." Axel replied, rubbing the back of his head.
For a minute, Hades forgot about the rest of the gang and made his advance towards Axel. "Oh great it's the porcupine boy himself. Hey have you burned any marshmallows lately?" Hades joked. Axel made his usual grumpy grandpa face. Hades laughed his ass of.
"Hades...has Xemnas been here lately?" Axel asked.
"Xemnas? What in the land of Hades is a Xemnas?" Hades replied.
"You know...Xemnas? Long grey hair and has two red energy swords?"
Hades was still trying to figure out who Axel could have been talking about. Suddenly, it him him like a bag of bricks. "OH YOU MEAN XEMNAS!" He yelled out in surprise. Axel immediately flew back in shock. "Yeah I know that guy. He entered one of my tournaments like a week ago. Man I tell ya' that guy is one hell of a fighter he nearly took my poor Cerberus's head off."
"Well...anyway, did he like hide anything here like oh I don't know...a piece of paper?" Axel asked.
"A piece of paper...you mean like...THIS ONE!" Hades yelled, holding up a piece of paper in Axel's face.
"That's it, that is definitely the one."
"Really?...well it turns out that when your boss actually won the tournament, he put me in charge of giving you this. But...you have to go through a tournament to get this prize baby.
Axel felt uneasy about this. Axel had actually participated in one Hades tournaments. He also remembers the mistake he made that got Hades pissed off at him in the first place. "You know porcupine boy...I still haven't forgotten about the last time. Do You remember?." Hades reminded. Axel cast a side smirk.
"Hey I told you before, I'm the true fire god in these parts." Axel retorted.
"OH WELL I GUESS WE'LL SEE THEN!" Hades roared, his hair and skin now red.
"FINE! POINT ME TO THIS TOURNAMENT THEN!"
"FINE!"
Suddenly, the entire ground started shaking violently. A Large circle formed on the ground. "W-what is happening?" Zexion asked nervously.
"I don't know...but we are gonna' find out." Larxene replied.
The ground stopped shaking and everything was still. The underworld was quiet...too quiet. Suddenly, a large circular building emerged from the ground. "This my friend is where the rule change. THIS IS...HADES TOURNAMENT 2012!" Hades shouted. Fireworks went off in the back of the stadium. "Axel...walk right in and sign up.
"Okay." Axel replied.
He walked in and met Hades again, he was holding up a contract for Axel to sign. "Okay Axel, sign here, here, here, here, and let's not forget...here." Hades said, pointing to different spots on the paper. Axel shrugged and signed the contract. Once that was done, Hades rolled the paper up and tucked it away for safe keeping.
"Excellent, now we can start the show." Hade mumbled.
"Don't worry guys. Watch me beat the competitions ass." Axel said, stretching out his arms.
"Axel..I don't know about this...knowing Hades...he must have some tricks up his sleeve." Larxene replied.
"Your probably right but hey...I'm Axel,got it memorized. I'll figure out away to get things done smooth and simple."
"Ugh...okay."
"Good"
Axel followed Hades inside the stadium. "The arena is right down the hall. Go in and get ready." He ordered and dissapeared. Axel smiled and continued to walk. He noticed that that sounds of footsteps caused by his friends were no longer following him. he looked back and saw that they were all gone. Thinking that they were already at the arena stands, he continued going about his way to the arena to face his challenge. Once he got there, he saw that finding his friends would soon be a huge problem. The arena had a full house of undead and demons from all across the underworld.
"Hmm...I wonder where they are?" Axel thought to himself, scanning the crowed of thousands for his friends.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN ARE YOU READY FOR SOME NON-STOP GORE AND MAYHEM!" Hades yelled into the microphone.
Axel turned his attention towards the left side of the arena and saw Hades and his friends sitting in their own V.I.P section. "YO AXEL KICK ASS OUT THERE!" Larxene cheered. Axel gave her a faint followed by a thumbs up.
"OKAY LET'S GET THIS MATCH STARTED!" Hades shouted, teleporting into the center of the arena with Axel.
"Right...let's do this." Axel muttered.
The ground started shaking violently again. However, this shake down (pun intended) was very different from the last. Suddenly, a huge spiked tail erupted from the ground followed by three dragon-like heads. "IT LOOKS LIKE THE HYDRA HAS COME OUT TO PLAY!" Hades announced. Axel hadn't actually seen the Hydra before, but the rumors he was hearing about them were true. It was more scary looking in person. Suddenly, there were loud booming and banging sounds coming from the right side of the arena. A giant door as big as a hundred nobodies stacked on top of each other suddenly bust open revealing another three-headed beast. "UH-OH IT LOOKS LIKE MY BABY CERBERUS WANTS TO PLAY!"
"OH...SHIT!" Axel yelled.
"Axel is gonna' die...isn't he?" Roxas asked quietly.
Larxene and Zexion simultaneously slapped Roxas in the back of his head. Meanwhile in the arena, Hades had the mic and was ready to introduce the fighters. "IN THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RING, HAILING FROM THE UNDERWORLD AND ARE THE UNDEFEATED CHAMPIONS, CERBERUS AND HYDRA!" Hades introduced. The crowed erupted in cheers and roars. "AND IN THE LEFT CORNER, HAILING FROM...SOME PLACE AND IS ABOUT TO BE RIPPED TO BLOODY SHREDS...GIVE IT UP FOR AXEL!" The growed suddenly went silent. However, the only ones who would cheer were Roxas and Larxene. Zexion was busy reading a book (as usual).
"AND...FIGHT!"
"OH SHIT...AGAIN!" Axel yelled.
The two beast charged towards him at once. Due to the fact that these were BIG monsters he was dealing with, he wouldn't have that much room to fight in. He ran, dodged, and countered but the two monsterous titans were too much. "Maybe I can cut Hydra down to size." Axel thought, throwing his chakrams at Hydra's head. With success, the heads were severed from the body. However, this had actually been good news for the hydra. "Wait...WHAT THE FUCK!" Axel watched in horror as the heads of the Hydra grew back. That wan't the only bad news, Axel finally learned the meaning of the Hydra's true power. Meanwhile, Hades was chatting with Larxene.
"Hehehelooks like Axel finally learned that if you cut the head off of a hydra, two more take it's place. So hotty hot hotty...what are you doing after this tournament?" Hades asked, leaning on larxene's shoulder.
"UGH!..I'm helping my frie-...I mean my BOYFRIEND Axel." Larxene replied, pushing Hades off of her.
"Oohhh so you and porcupine boy are going steady huh?"
"Yeah, so that means I'm off limits to old farts like you.
"Roar...fiery attitude. I like that in a woman."
Larxene rolled her eyes and continued to watch the match. "Axel is really my boyfriend but...but soon he will be." Larxene thought to herself. The battle in the arena was fierce and dangerous. Fire surrounded both monsters, but they extinguished it as if it were a bug on a kitchen counter. "Dammit...I can't take these guess down...But What if I use and unlikely sneak attack?" Axel said. He got rid of his chakrams and whistled at Cerberus.
"HEY CERBY, COME HERE BOY!"
"What's Axel doing?" Zexion asked.
Cerberus licked his lips and ran towards Axel. All Axel did was stand there and wait for the right moment. Cerberus drew closer and closer until...he completely fell to the ground. Everyone, including Hades looked in confusion. Suddenly, Cerberus rolld over to his side revealing Axel. He was rubbing Cerberus's stomach. "Hehe good boy..very good boy." Axel whispered in Cerberus's ear. the giant beast was smiling and waging it's tail like there was no tomorrow. Cerberus was just like a regular dog...except for the three heads thing. Unfortunately, there was still buisness to attend to. The Hydra was still a problem and Axel would need the help of his new compainion to bring it down. "Hey boy, do you wanna help me out? If you do, I promise I'll get you the biggest bone the world can hold." Cerberus turned on his stomach and licked Axel. He was now completely covered in dog spit. gross. Axel hopped on top of cerberus like a jockey on a horse and summoned his chakrams.
"No...NO NO NO!" Hades yelled in frustration.
"Cool dude, Axel has control of Cerberus." Roxas replied.
Axel and cerberus were ready for combat. however, combat wasn't gonna work with Hydra so...Axel had to use another power. the power of bribery. "Okay boy listen, I need you to get me closer to Hydras ear okay? Get on his back." Axel ordered. Cerberus smiled and rushed towards hydra with with good enough speed. Hydra only had four heads (counting the one Axel sliced off earlier) so the battle would be easy. Hydra made the first move by trying to bite cerberus. Cerberus dodged the attack and pounced onto the hydra's back. however, hydra seemed to put up quite the struggle. "Dammit man he is strong. Okay boy listen up, We need to keep this son of a bitch still okay? Pin him, pin him down so I can get close to his head." Cerberus nodded and jumped ten twenty feet in the air and came down with a loud boom. The Hydra was completely pinned under the weight of the king of beasts.
"Oh man this is it." Larxene said, holding her hands together.
"Yep...we may have a winner." Zexion replied.
Axel walked up to the dazed hydra, he looked into it's eyes then walked over to it's ear. "Hey Hydra geuss what? I got a deal for you that you simply can not refuse." Axel whispered. The Hydra was all ears. Again, the crowed looked puzzeled, some of them even started booing and throwing thing. This wan't the fight they wanted to see. Axel continued to whisper into the ear of the legendary beast. "Okay...do we have a deal Hydra?" The Hydra nodded and turned it's attention towards the crowed of undead fans. The crowed went silent, Hydra nad Cerberus smiled and together, they burst out of the stadium like a wrecking ball slamming into a brick wall. the undead audience cheers turned to screams and panic.
"WHAT THE HELL!NO NO NO THIS IS GONNA RUIN ME!" Hades sceamed.
"Well...it looks like Axel whens by default."
Larxene, Zexion, and roxas ran into the middle of the ring. "Good job Axel but..what was that all about." Larxene asked.
"Oh..I promised hydra that if he helped us break out of here, I would show him around...Atlantis, my least favorite place." Axel explained.
"oh...well I'm sure he'll love it there." Larxene replied.
The victory came to an abrupt end as Hades stepped in and demanded order. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BABIES!" he questioned with authority in his tone.
"Oh I gave them offers they couldn't refuse. And...since I won, you have to give me what I came for." Axel implied.
"HeheheHAHAHA! Oh you mean the sheet of paper? I forgot all about that...I guess I can have fun BURNING IT IT TO A-...where is it?"
"looking for this?"
Larxene held up the peice of paper the gang traveled long to get. "I took it from your pocket while you were hitting on me." Larxene explained. Hades was hot as hell (no pun intended). he wanted to destroy the place inside and out and was getting ready to.
"uh oh, everyone to the gummy ship NOW!" Axel ordered.
hey all teleported to the ship and took off, not wanting to see the results of Hades true anger. "Wow...that was close...well I guess we're off to the next place." Roxas said.
"Yep and where would that happen to be?" Zexion replied.
"Oh great, we have to go to...Atlantis" Axel said, sinking into his seat.
