Invasion on Sophia

Ratchet's resistance

Ratchet rides around on his newly invented bike to test it's limits.

"WooooHOOOOoo! This am so awesome," He yells coming down the main street leading to the gate. He sees the soldiers of the revolution army coming towards him and he gulps, starting to sweat nervously.

"This am that invasion I heard about," He sweats a little.

"But Jake am not here yet! Or Mike. Or Yozora!" He grits his teeth and looks at the control buttons on the handle.

"Good thing I's prepared this time!" He yells and revs up the engine he sets off towards the massive amount of men coming towards him. Some of them stop as they see him riding towards them.

"Who's that? Is that all the resistance they can muster up?" they smirk and start charging him. Ratchet hits a red button and the back of the bike flips over his head to the front becoming a battering ram and he charges directly into the crowd making them flip right over his head and he starts doing really fast donuts hitting them with his back wheel.

"what's with this machine?!" One of them yells and a group of them stop moving towards the city to take care of him. Ratchet sets off again and hits a yellow button right before they swing their swords and two pistons come out from underneath and pushes him into the air and he hits a green one making rocket boosters appear on the back shooting him forward towards the city again. He lands on some of the soldiers and keeps going straight forward. He enters the gate and stops with the bikes side to the army.

"Damn. There am just too many of them," He thinks and suddenly looks behind him and sees one of the commanders, Delta coming straight for him. He manages to just move out of the way of punch instead making it hit the ground instead.

"I'm going to ask you… NOT to do that. But you don't seem to be of such big resistance. Drake! Lante! Take care of him for me! That'd be great," She says and her right and left hands come from both sides. Drake is a large bald man with a big green ring that seems to be sharp on the outside and Lante is a much younger woman holding a lantern. Ratchet gulps and rides straight past Delta and the two lackeys start pursuing him keeping up almost.

"What's with that weird thing! What kind of devil fruit is that!?" Lante yells and opens holds out her lantern and it shoots open spewing balls of fire. Ratchet manages to dodge narrowly with sharp jolts to the side.

"Damn… He's fast-" Lante starts and Drake smirks.

"But not fast ENOUGH!" He yells throwing his ring and it gets stuck in the ground in front of Ratchet's path.

"Oh no!" Ratchet hits the ring and as his bike comes to a sudden stop he's thrown off and rolls a little before stopping. He stands and holds out his mechanical arm as the two of them approach. Drake grabs his ring.

"What now? You don't have your machine," He says.

"And we still have our weapons," Lante concludes. Ratchet smirks.

"I's prepared to fight since I were accepted onto the crew. Takes this! JOINT-0: NAIL GUN!" He yells and fingertips in his arm open up and starts shooting long nails and the two narrowly dodge. Drake throws his ring and Ratchet holds out the first joint of his arm. "JOINT-1: BUZZER!" A slot opens and a buzz saw comes out. It starts spinning and Ratchet manages to block the strike from the ring throwing it back in the process. He runs forward and Lante shoots flaming coal at him again. Ratchet dodges narrowly and the first joint of his arm moves to the side and reveals a cannon in the second joint. "JOINT-2: SPITFIRE!" He points it directly at Lante's head and she just manages to jump as a giant spit flame erupts from his joint. The round explodes as it hits. Meanwhile Drake has gotten his ring back and Lante joins him.

"I'll admit… I didn't think you'd be this annoying to deal with!" Drake says and jumps forward. Ratchet fires a few more rounds from his finger pistols, which Drake easily deflects and Ratchet jumps back landing right next to his bike again. He pushes the green button making the rocket boosters fire shooting the bike right into Drake with the battering ram and he's sent over the machine. Ratchet's entire arm starts spinning with each joint spinning the opposite of the last. "JOINT-MAX: SCREWDRIVER!" He hits Drake directly in the stomach and his punch is driven through by the spinning force of all his joints and Drake is sent flying. Lante takes a step back before attacking again. "JOINT-1: BUZZER!" His buzzsaw appears again and he starts swinging it at her and she's forced to dodge. She blasts some more flaming pieces of coal and Ratchet leaps under them coming close to her also. "JOINT-MAX: SCREWDRIVER!" He sets off the ground with his real arm and hits her with a spinning uppercut. She's hit in the chest and sent flying also. Ratchet's arm stops spinning and he sighs.

"That were tough," He says and runs to his bike getting onto it again. He puts on his welding goggles and rides off again. The army has begun dispersing around the city taking out the guards standing around.

"Requesting backup!" One of the guards yells into a transponder snail before being cut down.

Meanwhile in the castle Faiche is looking over the city from atop the castle tower. He spots the army approaching and Ratchet attacking them. He rushes inside.

"My lord! The invasion has begun. They made it through the gate! You and the princess need to come with me right this instant!" He yells and the king shoots up along with Julia who's sitting at the table as well. He leads them into the hallway and they run down. However after a little while one of the guards come flying from a crossing hall.

"What was that?" Faiche takes out his axe holding it like a normal onehanded sword even though it's incredibly big.

"Stand back your majesties," Around the corner walks Shinta with his hands in his pockets. He bows sarcastically.

"Hello there your majesty," He says and starts walking towards the three. Faiche charges forward and Shinta holds out his hand. Faiche swings his axe and hits him dead on, but the impact stops suddenly.

"What a strong blow that was! You're pretty good," Faiche jumps back and swings again. Once more it simply stops.

"What's going on!?" Faiche says and he keeps swinging at Shinta who just takes all the hits. Doesn't matter where he hits Shinta, Faiche can't make as much as a dent. Shinta raises his fist.

"I think this is enough…" He punches the ground and his hand glows red and the floor is completely destroyed along with the walls and ceiling. A giant rock is about to fall down over the king and Julia. Faiche jumps for it slicing it in half and it falls beside them. He jumps off it and grabs the two royals.

"My apologies," He says jumping out of the broken wall and notices that almost the entire tower of the part they were standing in was collapsing. He lands and places the two down.

"Thank you Faiche…" the king says and suddenly Faiche sees Shinta coming towards them.

"Be careful your majesty!" He holds up his axe like a shield and Shinta hits the axe causing Faiche to be pushed backwards. Shinta jumps off his axe. Slowly around them it starts raining. However Shinta doesn't seem to get wet as when each drop hits him it stops moving just before and lands gently on him rolling down his body.

"What's with you? How do you do that?" Shinta raises his foot. He stomps on the ground sending a shockwave straight down destroying the building they're standing on.

"That's easy! I'm invincible! That's all there is to it!" He says jumping off the building just before it collapses and Faiche grabs the two royals and jumps out of the way. Julia seems to be incredibly scared.

"Y-you're a monster! I demand that you stop this!" Shinta tilts his head.

"Or else what!?" He starts walking towards the three of them and Faiche can't do anything.

"Your majesty! Take the princess and RUN! I will distract him! It was an honor serving you my king," He says and the king nods grabbing Julia by the hand and Faiche smirks holding out his axe.

"I may not be able to stop you, but when Blu returns with the prince you will be defeated! They stopped your forces with ease! You will lose!" He yells and attacks again. Shinta holds out his hand and right before Faiche hits him he's flung backwards.

"Not likely. You really think I sent them to Samantha to take it over if I could get in without having the city under siege?!" He runs forward winding up his punch. He punches the air in front of him and Faiche manages to jump over the following shockwave, however he's blown back by the wind of the attack.

"What happened?" Faiche asks.

"None of your concern!" Shinta says punching the air right where Faiche is headed and another shockwave is sent in his direction knocking him out of the air and he lands a bit away.

Meanwhile somewhere else Beta and Sigma walk around.

"This rain was quite the exquisite idea yes," They're greeted with a big horde of guards coming towards them.

"I guess this is my treat," Sigma says and Beta stops.

"Make it quick yes," Beta says and Sigma smiles.

"As you say," His body begins changing and his hair becomes spikier and he grows in size. His back becomes covered in spikes as well and he gets large claws on instead of fingers. He jumps forward and turns into a big ball of spikes rolling forward hitting the giant ensemble of guards piercing most of them and knocking them into the rest knocking all of them out with ease. He stops rolling and turns human again.

"Quick enough for you?" Sigma says looking back at Beta who just grunts.

"Quick enough yes," Before he takes a step he hears another group of guards coming from the other side and turns around.

"My my yes. These people seem to be very persistent yes. I will show you the extent of our strength yes," He slams his hands into the ground and suddenly they all start sinking.

"What's… happening?!" Beta pulls his hands back out when only their heads are visible.

"Shall we get going Sigma?" Sigma nods and the two continue their journey towards the castle.

Epsilon is meanwhile having loads of fun slashing down everyone with his hat.

"Haha! Come on! More! Send me some more! I'll take them all on! This is too easy!" He slashes one across the chest and kicks him and the man flies back, but is hit out of the way by someone else. In his way stands someone wearing the great royal guard uniform. He has long orange hair.

"Who the hell are you punk!?" The royal guard yells and Epsilon puts his hat back on.

"I guess you'll just have to defeat me to find that out won't you? I've always wanted to fight a great royal guard," He tips his hat down and smirks.

"And you will get that fight! The name is Naran! But you can just call me your worst nightmare!" He says taking off a giant spear he has on his back holding it like an ordinary guard on the ground and Epsilon laughs.

"You think you'll beat me just because you have a longer weapon than me?! Not how it works pal!" He jumps forward and cuts with his hat and Naran swings his spear to block and the two end in a stalemate. Naran pushes him downwards swinging his spear back and tries stabbing Epsilon in the back, but he rolls to the side and jumps up and back again. Naran counterattacks before Epsilon has time to think and he's forced to walk back and block all the long strikes and stabs from Naran.

"This might be harder than I thought," Epsilon takes another step back and dodges under Naran's attack and comes up with an uppercut using his hat.

"But I love a good challenge!" Naran manages to just move back, but he's sliced partially and some of his hair falls off.

"You're quite cocky punk! I'm going to have to discipline you!" Naran swings his spear up and the back hits Epsilon in the stomach pushing him back.

"You're pretty strong great royal guard," Epsilon says shaking the pain off.

In another part of the city Ratchet is riding towards Delta who hasn't noticed him yet. She finally sees him and jumps over the bike and Ratchet breaks and looks at her.

"You am not gettin' past me again," Delta scruffs at him and clenches her fist.

"You again? I thought I asked Drake and Lante to take care of you!" Ratchet smirks.

"You did! But I's already taken care of those two! Now it am your turn!" He says speeding towards Delta again and she moves to the side avoiding it narrowly.

"I hope you're not thinking that just because you defeated my left and right hands that I'll be just as easy to defeat. Fine! Let's play a little," Delta's hair starts moving a bit and Ratchet's eyes widen.

"You's a devil fruit user!" Delta smiles and her hair blasts off towards the bike and right before she grasps him he makes half a donut and begins riding towards her again. He pushes the green button and the rocket boosters shoots him forward at an alarming rate and right before he connects with Delta she puts her hair up in front of her and it somehow becomes hard and she's just pushed back and Ratchet looks at a meter that seems to be depleting fast. He grits his teeth upon seeing it. He stops the rocket boosters and Delta pushes him back with her hair.

"Not as easy as you believed huh?" Ratchet gulps and pushes the blue button and the long narrow pipes that make up the rocket booster flip over and point directly at her and they blast a fast spitfire in her face and she's forced to take a step back, as Ratchet drives back using the boosters. They flip back and Delta looks mildly impressed.

"You're pretty good with that machine. Too bad I'm better! HAIR INFECTION!" Her hair starts covering the ground and approaches Ratchet quickly.

"Oh no," He says before quickly turning around and he starts driving down the street with the hair closely following behind. He pushes an orange button and the wheels glow tiny spikes and Ratchet drives up the wall and speeds up. Delta looks after him and lifts herself with her hair onto the roof with him and she finally catches up with Ratchet and his bike is enveloped in hair. He jumps off the bike and rolls along the ground. He looks towards Delta terrified that she's derailed him. She picks up the bike with her hair.

"Let's see how easy you two are to defeat once I break both of you!" She yells and starts crushing the bike. Ratchet stands quickly and begins running towards her.

"Stops that! That am MINE! You has no right to destroys it!" He yells tackling her and she drops the bike and Ratchet runs to it. He lets out a relieved sigh seeing that it's intact. He looks at Delta with an angry look.

"You's going down lady! No one touch my machines, but the people they's for!" Delta stands after the surprise attack from Ratchet. Her hair flows upwards.

"Okay then. Let's see if you're worth anything without that machine by your side," Ratchet winds back his mechanical arm.
