Chapter 5: Final Curtain
(Disclaimer! I own nothing of any of the franchises making this awesome story.)
Earlier…..
I was giving Steven all of the details about what was happening and why we needed his help. "So why do you need the Cosmic Gem?" asked Steven. "We're trying to retrieve it from Star's cousin, Comet Dragonfly," I said, "He plans to use it to open a gateway from Mewni to Earth." "You mean Star Butterfly?" asked Steven. "That's right," I said, "Apparently it involves her as well." "Well like I said, you need me, then I'm all in for it," said Steven. "That's great," I said. Someone was calling on my communicator. "Nicholas its Wendy," she said. "Did you find the other guy?" I asked. "Not really, but I did come across some guy calling himself Concrete," said Wendy, "He's a handful for us!" "I'm on my way," I said. I put on my suit. "I've already called for pickup to take you to the Halberd," I said, "I'll explain everything else later!" I flew to their location.
Wendy jumped off the truck and was caught by Star. "Thanks," she said. "Don't mention it," said Star. Star hit a wall and they both fell. Concrete looked at them. "We're not done yet," he said. He changed his body to crystal. "Now its time to settle the score," he said. He was about to attack them but I swooped in and saved them. I was injured but the wound healed fast. "Mind if I join the party?" I asked.
Now
I had my plasma busters ready to fire. "Unless you wanna end up molten rock, I suggest you surrender," I said. Concrete knew that he was beat. "You win this round," he said, "But I'll be back. Eventually!" He jumped and landed on a helicopter. "We'll deal with him later," I said as I saw footsteps. "It looks like we've found who we're looking for." Wendy and I followed the footsteps of the beast and we traced it down to a village. "Nice village," said Wendy. One guy was looking at us. "A man of metal, and a long haired woman," he said. "Oh, I'm not a robot," I said as I took of my mask, "My name is Nicholas Shay." "I am the chief of this village," said the Chief, "What brings you here?" "I am here because I have heard rumors of a boy, a boy who has the power to tame a beast," I said. Wendy used some kind of magic to show pictures. "He brings food to the hungry, shelter for the cold, and he stands up for the weak," I said, "And last I heard he was in this villiage. Its very important that I see this boy," I said.
"You must be speaking of our savior," said the chief, "Come with us." "Who's their savior?" asked Wendy whispering. "I will show you our savior," said the chief. "Damn he's got good hearing," said Star. "Yes, I do," said the chief smiling. "Real good," I said. We were taken to a building that was full of people. "This is where he usually spends his time," said the chief. "Thanks," I said, "We'll take it from here. I went inside. "I'm looking for a Billy Griffin," I said. A boy with red hair and some green face paint turned around. "Talk," he said. "I believe that an enemy is coming, one that threatens to destroy this world as we know it," I said, "I'm putting together a team of warriors, heroes, living legends to combat this threat. I heard about you and thought the beast would be a worthy candidate." "This beast you speak of he does not show concern for the other cities," said Billy. "You must understand," I said, "We need his help to locate the cosmic star and contain it." "What do you want him to do, swallow it?" asked Billy. "Only keep it safe," I said.
"You won't put him in a cage will you?" asked Billy. "Nobody's gonna put him a…" I said. He pushed me to a wall. "STOP LYING TO ME!" he shouted. Colleen had her gun aimed at him. He then put me down. "I'm sorry, that was mean," he said. "Shit, you're strong," I said. "I think you should go," said Billy, "Tell whoever sent you that the beast has no interest in being part of your little get together." "Very well," I said as I gave him a card, "But in case you change your mind, here's my card." "So what did he say?" asked Colleen, "Will he enter the fray with us?" "More or less," I said. "More, more or more, less," said Colleen. "Probably more less," I said. "He said no?" asked Colleen. "Yeah he said no," I said. "Well it should work with the 5 of us," said Colleen. My communicator rang. "Nicholas, we need you to get to the battleship Halberd right away!" said Captain N, "We got trouble." "What kind of trouble?" I asked.
Back on the Halberd, some of Comet's mind controlled henchmen infiltrated and started attacking the people on the ship. "Pretty bad," said Captain N. "We're on the way!" I said. "We need a ship," said Wendy. "Let's take that one," I said pointing to an old ship. "That one's closer," said Star. "No way that one's garbage!" I said. The ship I saw started to fall in the ocean. "…..The garbage will do!" I said. I saw a giant ship with 4 wings forming an x. We started to fly to the halberd. Steven was fighting off the soldiers. "Back off you creeps!" he said, "I got a shield and I'm not afraid to use it!" He threw it at 2 of them. Some of the soldiers sabatoged one of the engines and the halberd lost a bit of Altitude. "Shit!" said Captain N. Our ship was zeroing in. I put on my Power Suit. "Time to kick some tail!" I said. Pit opened the gates for us to get inside. "Thanks Pit!" I said. Comet was in our way. "Going somewhere?" he asked. "We're saving our friends," I said, "Now get out of our way." I had my plasma busters ready to fire.
"Your plan isn't gonna work Comet!" I said, "You have no chance against us." "Well let's see how you fair against him," said Comet. Meta Knight threw his sword at Star making her drop the wand. "Oh no!" said Star. It fell to the ground. "Destroy them," said Comet. I started fighting him and his sword was super quick. Wendy tried shooting but the bullets were cut in half. I tried to analyze some of his abilities but he was too quick. He kicked me in the face and I fell to the ground. He was about to go after Star but Steven got in the way. "We're not your enemies Meta Knight!" said Steven, "Try to think!" "Nicholas!" said Captain N, "One of the engines is destroyed!" "Meet me there," I told Colleen. I flew to the engine. Colleen got her riot shield and got through the barriers. "Looks like parts of the engine are overloaded with debris," said Colleen. "I noticed that," I said. I used the plasma beams to cut them all out. "I'm gonna have to push," I said. I started pushing the rotor to gain back altitude. It started spinning normally again but I was caught in it. "Fuck," I said. I was spinning out of control but finally got free.
Star searched for Comet and found him in the detention center. "Gotcha!" she said. She jumped after him but it was a trap. "When will you ever learn," said Comet. "Let me out!" said Star. "Afraid I can't do that," said Comet. Someone shot one of his bodyguards. It was Pit. "I suggest you stand back," said Pit, "You like this weapon? I modled it after one of the monsters I defeated. Let's see how it works." He was about to fire but a Comet clone stabbed him in the back. "NOOOOOO!" said Star. Pit started to vanish, but then somehow came back. "What the…." Said Comet. "Comet, its time," said one of his mind controlled soldiers. "Looks like our business here is done, But first…" said Comet. He smashed a control and Star was launched from the halberd. Star tried busting out using her wand. The glass broke and she got free and the capsule fell into the water. "That was way too close," said Star. I was fighting Meta Knight. He was about to do a finishing blow and I avoided it and he hit his head on a pipe. He finally came back to his senses. "Nicholas…." He said. I hit him again.
