Ok everyone, this is the ninth chapter. We're going to see how Zeno deals with his Mary-Sue while Dufort is busy being harassed by Kerri.

But sadly, I know almost nothing about Zeno except for he wants a Bao spell and doesn't like Zatch because their dad was nicer to Zatch and made Zeno train hard while Zatch got to play around AND have the Bao spell.

I wasn't sure what Metalner meant by Blue and Mac both saying they wanted to be a Flamer. The rule (that I made up just now) is one flamer per person and since there are Blues and Macs running around in a lot of stories so I'll just call Metalner's Flamer Metalner. Like it or not.

READ!

Zeno had just climbed to the very top of the mountain to hang out. He told his Book Owner, Dufort, that he was going to train, but instead he was just going to yell at the top of his lungs about hating Zatch in a place where no one would hear him.

Or so he thought.

While Zeno was busy shouting to the high heavens about how Zatch would die a slow and agonizing death at his hands, a nameless Mary-Sue hid behind a tree, watching and waiting.

She had no memory, no name, and no control over her unfathomable and supreme powers.

The typical case, just waiting for some tough bad guy who wanted to use her power, to fall in love with her.

But this time she wasn't here for nothing. She needed to obtain love from some one more evil than Zofis. (But less ugly)

Before Nameless could stop herself, she displayed her position behind the tree by accidentally attacking Zeno.

He flew across the mountain path, making leaves fly up in the wind, until he smacked right into a tree.

"Hey!" he shouted, standing up, "Who dares attack the great Zeno future master of the Bao?"

"Sorry!" Nameless cried, running over to him, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah. You think that weak hit would affect me?" Zeno spat, "What's you're problem? You wanna fight?"

"No…I can't" Nameless said, sadly, and then cut to the chase, "I can't control my powers."

"Humph." Zeno said, "Why not? You seem strong enough…"

"I guess I am…but I don't know." Nameless responded, "I lost my memories and so I don't remember how to control it."

"You're a mamodo, right?" Zeno asked, "Why don't you have a Book Owner?"

"I don't know…" Nameless answered, "But I don't seem to need one. All I need is somewhere to go…"

A plan began to formulate in Zeno's head, just as the Nameless mamodo wanted it too.

Zeno thought that if he could get this girl to come with him, he could control her power and she could fight with him and he wouldn't even need Faudo, who ever he was.

"You can come with me." Zeno said, "My Book Owner and I are going to fight. You can help me win the battle for king."

"Ok." The nameless mamodo agreed, this is what she had hoped for all along.

"Now let's go find my Book Owner…" Zeno said and just when he was about to start walking, a whole circle of Flamers surrounded them.

"Mary-Sue, you are coming with me!" all of them said at once, the looked at one another, shocked.

"What are you all doing here?" a flamer in red exclaimed, pointing at the two other Flamers.

"I should be asking you that, Metalner." A flamer, wearing red and yellow sneered, "You're not even supposed to be here."

"Neither is Bella but she just got a Mary-Sue!" Metalner complained, "I wanted to have some fun too."

The red and yellow Flamer snorted, and flipped her hair, "Heh. I hate people like you. Normal writers who only Flame once and a while. You've got to be a hardcore Flamer or nothing. You're just a n00b! Same with that Bella girl."

"But she's with Smoke, Bash." The third Flamer said, "Bella can't be that bad if Smoke let's her help and Flame hired her as well as Metalner so they can't just n00bs."

"You're just a n00b lover, Ash." Bash replied, "In fact, you're not more n00b yourself."

"And you're nothing more than a troll." Ash shot back, "All you do is bother n00bs and terrorize chatrooms, I didn't think Mary-Sues were your thing."

Before Bash could say anything in return, Metalner spoke up.

"While you were arguing over me, the Mary Sue escaped!" he said.

"No!" Bash and Ash shouted and ran away after Nameless.

Just as Metalner was about to do the same, Zeno stopped him.

"Don't go after her!" he exclaimed, "She was going to make me king!"

"Don't you know who she is?" Metalner asked, "She's a Mary-Sue the force unsuspecting guys to fall in love with them and then perform dun, dun, dun, dun CANNON-RAPE!"

Zeno gasped, and then fainted into dreams of dying Zatch's.

Metalner joined the chase of the nameless mamodo.

LATER…

The three Flamers looked high and low, near and far but there was no sign of the nameless Mary-Sue.

"This is ridiculous!" Bash panted, falling down from lack of breath.

"Where could she be?" Ash wondered.

"I know!" Metalner realized, "She came to win Zeno's love at all costs, so where else would she be?"

"WITH ZENO!" Ash and Bash exclaimed, standing up.

And so the Flamers ran back to where Zeno was and sure enough, for Nameless kneeling over his fainted body, trying desperately to wake him.

They snuck up on her, not wanting to start another chase scene and grabbed Nameless and stuffed her in a sack Ash had just happened to be carrying.

Then Metalner, Ash and Bash all took the Mary-Sue back to the Flamer's base.

AT THE BASE…

"Very good." Flame said, "Now I have three Mary-Sues caught."

Smoke, Bella, Blue Fire, Metalner, Ash and Bash all stood before their leader, waiting for him to continue.

"Blue Fire and Smoke." Flame began, "I want you two to find Coal and Fire then lead the attack on the rest of the Mary-Sues. Ash, and Bash, watch the captured Mary-Sues and make sure they don't escape. And as for you, Bella and Metalner, I want you to go into the Mamodo World and find White Fire and assist him on his quest to find and obtain the Gary-Stus."

Everyone gasped. Why was such a task being given to the 'n00bs' of the group?

Bash was the most appalled of all, "Why send them? They're n00bs. I'm meaner than them, Smoke's stronger and Blue Fire's quicker than them, so why not send one of us?"

"Because I need your strength here, against the Mary-Sues." Flame explained, "Besides, these so called 'n00bs' may be stronger than you think. Metalner was the one who figured out that the nameless Mary-Sue would be back with Zeno and Smoke says that Bella's powerful and makes funny jokes about Mary-Sues."

"But!" Bash protested.

"Are you mistrusting my judgement?" Flame asked menacingly, "I know what you used to be!"

Bash held her head in shame, "I'm sorry, you're the boss and so are correct."

"Good." Flame said, "Now everyone, go and do you're tasks."

Blue Fire and Smoke left the room to go lead the attack on the Mary-Sues, Ash and Bash went to guard the three Sues in custody and Metalner and Bell just stood their, unsure of how to perform their job.

"Uh…how exactly do we get to the Mamodo World?" Bella asked, "And what exactly are Gary-Stus?"

"I'll open a portal for you." Flame said, standing up from his fiery thrown and effortlessly opening a portal, "As for the Gary Stus, you'll find out about them later…"
