Stan Bush - Dare
Sometimes when your hopes have all been shattered
And there's nowhere to turn
You wonder how you keep going
Think of all the things that really mattered
And the chances you've earned
The fire in your heart is growing
You can fly, if you try leaving the past behind
Heaven only knows what you might find
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare
Everybody's trying to break your spirit
Keeping you down
Seems like it's been forever
But there's another voice if you'll just hear it
Saying it's the last round
Looks like it's now or never
Out of the darkness you stumble into the light
Fighting for the things you know are right
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
The power is there at your command
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
The power is there at your command
Dare - dare to keep all your love alive
Dare to be all you can be
Dare - 'cause there is a place where dreams survive
And it's calling you on to victory
Ryo vs the Xenoverse
Chapter 21: Crossover Breakfast!
Of many things, Pearl didn't expect Ryo to invite her to breakfast. Not my slashing open a portal in his living room leading to hers one morning. Now Ryo, Hatchin, (Warper!)Soon, Barit, Pearl, and Kenshiro were having breakfast in Ryo's kitchen.
"May I say, it's really an honor to meet you in person." Pearl said sipping her tea.
"No sweat, Pearl. The feeling is mutual. I figured we were due for a crossover. Besides, I wanted to clear the air after Kenny called me a man-whore." Ryo said glaring at Kenshiro.
Kenshiro was silent.
"This croissant is delicious, Hatchin." Barit said.
"Thanks Barit." Hatchin said flattered.
"So, you got your pure form? Congrats. Someday, we should spar." Ryo suggested.
"Spar us?" Pearl said a tad nervous. "Maybe."
Soon enough, breakfast was done and our heroes had bid their goodbyes as Kenshiro, Pearl, and Barit returned to their world. As Ryo closed up the portal, he couldn't keep but worry. He had a feeling something was wrong. He sensed a disturbance. Foul warper energy in Pearl's world. That was a problem considering, aside from Praxtic, there aren't any warpers in Pearl's dimension.
(Conton City, Dragon World, Alternate Dimension No. 12438228)
In a seedy forest, a familiar terrible trio was with a dangerous killer. One familiar to a certain associate. He wore a cloak to hide his identity. (So we'll call him Shinpi)
"So you want to offer me powers beyond anything ever seen before?" "Shinpi" said in a hardened tone. "In exchange that I join your little trio."
"Mura left us, and we were better a quartet." Jigoku said twirling a severed head of a Murasaki ninja on his middle finger.
"This warper power you speak of. It'll give me an edge." "Shinpi" said.
"Oh yes, you'll be able to manipulate space and time. You'll be able to bend everyone who isn't a warper to your will." Taoretta remarked. "We've been raping, killing, and doing whatever under Chronoa's nose for years ever since."
"I like the sound of that." "Shinpi" remarked.
"The raping or the killing? I can go either way." Shadlyn remarked.
You'd think that Shadlyn wouldn't get any more dangerous. Well, while Pearl and crew were off on breakfast with Ryo, Shadlyn went to the Time Rift stations and got to Majin Buu's house. Lying to Majin Buu that she was a friend of Pearl's, he taught her how to access Pure Form. Of course, unlike Pearl, Shadlyn could perfectly control the crazy. She was already an amoral sociopath.
"Patience, love. We'll go get our fucktoy Android from our secret timeline soon enough." Jigoku said.
The Ice-jin loved tormenting her. Shinpi was shocked at the cruelty this trio had, but he smiled on the inside.
"I'm in. What's this warper secret?" "Shinpi" asked.
"It's…wait, I can't say out loud." Jigoku said looking at the fourth wall. "Sorry sweet thing, can't pop that cherry of yours."
Taoretta whispered the secret into Shinpi's ears. His eyes widen and screamed as he held his head. The rush of his Flames of Creation expanded enveloping him in white flames. All around Conton City, they felt a foul energy shoot up especially Praxtic. The flames died down and Shinpi felt empowered. An Order of Reality server came down, registered him, and gave him the rules before leaving.
"Warper law is awesome." Shinpi said.
"Indeed." Jigoku said. "As long as you don't mess with prime worlds, don't make certain people warpers, and keep R-34 verses stuff there, you can do whatever you please."
"And being a warper, you can use Warper's Will to rid yourself of your weaknesses to wolfsbane, garlic, and stakes." Shadlyn said. "But we'll have to train you."
"But first, let's murder some more Murasaki. We can pin the blame on some sap. Like Bage!" Jigoku said tossing the head away.
"Yeah, fuck him. I'd prefer Pearl any day." Shadlyn said licking her lips.
However, they were spotted by a Patroller. Bage. He had went out into the forest to train only to hear Jigoku talk of murder. Bage confronted them. That….was a terrible idea.
A half of an hour later, the four would leave having Bage's broken body on the ground. His skull cracked open, his right lung collapsed, legs broken, right arm torn off, and violated by Shadlyn and Jigoku. Jigoku and Shinpi were eating Bage's right arm.
"Did I mention I might be a bit of a flesh eater? I like me some Namekians too. Taste real good with steak sauce." Jigoku said.
"So where to?" Shinpi asked.
Shadlyn tore open a portal to the unknown.
"Our killing grounds, we will train you there." Shadlyn pointed out.
Shinpi, Shadlyn, and Jigoku entered the portal, but Taoretta turned back to Bage. He decided to have a bit of mercy knowing how vicious the two were on him. Calling up Chronoa and disguising his voice, he reported that a patroller was attack and is unconscious. He gave the location and hung up before leaving through the portal.
"Pearl, you've gotten your pure form, eh?" Shadlyn thought. "Well, well, guess you do have a little sadism in your blood."
(A/N: This was short on purpose. Consider this a set up to future events. Who's Shinpi? Well, I can't say. You'll have to read Pearl's Adventures in the Xenoverse (this occurs after 17, but before 18). The next chapter for Ryo will occur immediately after this, as this only showed the morning. Edit 9/30/17: Line changes to the last scenes for consistency and I fixed a line for Jigoku that I had accidently given to Taoretta.)
