Chapter 1: The Meta Syndicate.
[It is 11:00 PM, two guards in futuristic knight armor keep watch of the front of a Military Gate. Both are keeping watch to see if there are any intruders].
Guard 1: Hey?
Guard 2: Yeah?
Guard 1: Did you hear the news?
Guard 2: What news?
Guard 1: The reason for all the extra guards, why most of the soldiers from our squad were stationed here?
[During their conversation, a tall dark skinned man in a red hoodie and a white jacket walks down the hall with a soldier holding a sealed metal box, Soldiers continue their conversation]
[Guard 2 suddenly realizes that there are more guards around then usual]
Guard 2: Huh? Now that you mention it, kinda does seem different. What's going on?
[A soldier standing on by a platform is grabbed from behind]
Guard 1: I heard they sent a Knight from Chorus, to bring some sort of artifact here.
Guard 2: What kind of artifact?
[Another soldier patrols from above, but a shadow zoom into and murders him]
Guard 1: I don't know, they said they had to keep it a secret. But from what I heard, it's alien.
Guard 2: ALIEN?!
Guard 1: Yeah man.
[the 2 guards converse, and as they converse, the man in white armor places the box in a secured room. And the young lad sighs in relief]
Arthur: Alright that should do it. Keep it safe soldier.
Soldier 1: Yessir.
[Arthur walks out of the room, opens his holophone]
Arthur: Alright guys the package is secure. Moving out. Raymond, meet me out front.
[Raymond Responds]
Raymond: Copy that.
[The soldier salutes to him]
[The Guards continue to converse]
Guard 2: Man, whatever is in there must be...
[Guard 2 notices that most of the Soldiers outside are gone]
Guard 2: *nervous* Valuable. Hey where did everyone go?
Guard 1: What are you talking about?
[Guard 1 notices that everyone suddenly disappeared]
Guard 1: *worried* Is our shift over?
[Both guards take aim at their surroundings, both scared to death, wondering what happened to their fellow Guards, and worried if they would be next, Guard 1 turns to guard 2]
Guard 1: Call someone!
Guard 2: RIGHT! Yes command we have a situation.
[Guard 2 calls the intercom to the room Arthur is waiting in, a soldier calls him back]
Soldier: Something wrong soldier.
[Both guards continue to take aim at their surroundings waiting for the first sight of movement]
Guard 2: I'm not sure, all the other guards in the entrance are gone. We may need bac-
[A 8 foot tall man crashes in front of them, standing tall smiling at them Menacingly. The man wears blue steel armor and a spartan helmet and begins to laugh in a menacing way, in a way that he is ready to kill]
Tank: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Guard 1: Enemy sigh-
[Tank throws himself at Guard 1 and smashes his body into the wall. With his hand on his face crushing his skull. He turns his attention to the other Guard seeming like he is ready to finish the other soldier. The guard breathes heavily as he sees his fellow guard dead before his eyes, the Guard begins to beg for mercy]
Guard 2: No please. Don't kill me!
[The noises can be heard from the room Arthur is in, the knight turns his gaze at the camera that presents the gate. He sees Guard 2 attempting to shoot multiple rounds at the behemoth of a man closing in on him. But it has no effect. Tank cracks his knuckles and with a look of execution]
Arthur: Raymond, get ready, we have intruders.
[In the back of the entrance multiple soldiers are patrolling the inside, and all of a sudden a huge explosion comes from the front door with Tank dragging the dead body of guard number 2, tank smiles menacingly.]
Tank: *Menacing* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Who's next?!
[Multiple soldiers shocked by his appearance, one cries out]
Soldier: CONTACT!
[Soldiers move forward and surround the giant]
Soldier: Stop right there
Soldier 2: Don't even think about it.
[Other soldiers hurriedly pick up the bodies of the wounded, and they try to call for help].
Soldier 3: Send reinforcements...
Female Soldier: Medic!
Soldier 3: ...we need everyone!
[Tank proceeds to carry the dead body and throws it at the soldiers opposing him]
Tank: RAGH!
[The dead body lands on the two soldiers, and Tank begins to massacre the other soldiers]
[The monster of a man charges toward one of them and fuels himself with energy made from blue aura, multiple soldiers fire rounds upon him but it has no effect, it only made him stronger]
[Once Tank got to the soldier he targeted he roared with pride and immediately struck him with an uppercut sending the soldier flying. He proceeds to the next by slam him into the ground]
Tank: Weak!
[more rounds are fired upon him from a corner, Tank growls at the soldiers that eagerly annoy him, he notices a crate and vigorously throws it at his opponents]
Tank: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
[Tank charges at more soldiers killing them off one by one.]
[another then stares at him and tries to run away, but Tank grabs her and brutally destroys every bone in her body and dropkicks her to the middle of the room]
Tank: *furious* IS THERE ANYONE WHO IS MORE OF A CHALLENGE?!
[More Soldiers enter the room with a young man holding a pistol]
Raymond: Take aim!
Soldier 5: Yessir!
[Tank notices them and is curious to see what is next?]
Tank: Hmm?
[Raymond then gives the command]
Raymond: FIRE!
[A soldier takes aim and fires two rockets, Both Rocket spin in sync and land themselves on Tank]
Raymond: Got him!
[Soldiers celebrate but are shocked by the radiating blue Aura around him, to their surprise they see a spartan behind Tank.]
Raymond: WHAT THE HELL?!
[Tank shakes off the minor pain and laughs it off]
Tank: HAHAHAHAHAHA! THIS IS FUN!
[Raymond then proceeds to give another command]
Raymond: Hit him again!
[Tank jumps high into the ceiling]
Tank: BRING IT!
[Raymond jumps out of the way while Tank crashes into another soldier and breaks through the floor, Raymond looks back and proceeds to call Arthur]
Raymond: Arthur, we need backup, this guy has Spirit Power!
[Arthur calls back]
Arthur: I'm on my way, just get the soldiers to safety.
Raymond: Are you going to be okay?
Arthur: Hopefully!
[While Arthur runs towards the entrance, Tank is on the lower floor seeing three soldiers in pointing their weapons at him]
Soldier 6: Freeze!
[but a bolt of lighting zaps past them and reveals a girl in a steampunk outfit, wearing pink talons that give off electricity, she immediately grasps her hands and the soldiers weapons are immediately torn apart, She turns around and asks]
Viper: *bored* "yawn" Looking for me?
Soldier 6: Shit! Our guns.
SOldier 7: We still have swords, dumbass!
[The soldiers bring their swords out]
[More soldiers come from the right side and begin to fire bullets upon Tank again, Tank feels the taps on his armor and begins another massacre, while Viper stand in front of them with an eyebrow raised in annoyance]
Viper: *sigh* Come on, (sarcastic) I'm waiting.
Soldier 6: Get her!
Soldiers: RAGH!
[Soldiers charge at her, swing their swords, but she manages to dodge every strike, she then zaps herself across behind one soldier and cuts off the arm carrying his sword]
Soldier 8: (in pain) AGH!
[The soldier begins to cry in pain seeing his limb ripped off of him like rag doll, but is cut by the fact he was stabbed in the back and left for dead, Viper proceeds to body slamming another Soldier and cutting and slashing him in the chest, the soldier fights back but she is too quick to track his movements. When the soldier tries to use his sword to go for the leg she flips backwards and sits on the shoulders of the 1st soldier and hurricanrana him into the floor snapping his neck]
Viper: Seriously another weakling, these are really not worth my time.
[She then unleashes a purple aura revealing a gentleman with a top hat holding a knife]
Viper: But orders are orders.
Soldier 7: No wait!
[Viper finishes off the third soldier by ripping his heart out from the floor, leaving him dead]
[afterwards she calls the one in charge of the mission]
Viper: Hey Boss? I'm bored, And I think Tank is having more than enough fun for one night.
[A man wearing demon armor, a menacing Blood Red cape, and a Phantom of the Opera like mask, keeps walking forward to their objective but is stopped by more soldiers]
Soldier 9: Stop right there, or we'll be forced to shoot.
[The man looks around at his surroundings, observing his opponents, looking for weaknesses]
One: *Tch* Pathetic.
[One's Dark Red Aura begins radiating, revealing a Black-ish Purple Dragon, he then points his gun at a certain angle, and fires 8 bullets bouncing around the hall. Each soldiers tries to dodge but is struck by the bullet either in the head, the chest or any fatal area, but manages to miss one]
One: Damn, I missed one.
[The demonic figure summons a Chain blade from his arm and entangles it around the remaining soldier cutting through his armor and skin]
Soldier 10: AGH!
[One inches closer to him and moves his hand on his face]
One: There, there child, it will all be over soon.
[He sticks some sort of device onto him and throws him away, Arthur manages to get to the Entrance of the artifact in time but sees that there is a bomb stuck to the Soldier that One almost killed]
Arthur: NO!
[The Bomb explodes leaving Arthur unconscious, but the last thing he sees are six figures walking toward One and begin to congratulate him]
Sharkface: As Expected of our master, well done.
Pyro: Sir, tell me again why we the rest of us couldn't assist you, we would have finished them in a shorter time.
Tank: And share the carnage, no way, these people are mine to kill.
Viper: Why are you so happy, Tank? They weren't even worth our time.
Watts: Typical Viper, always so bored, I thought you loved to kill.
Viper: Only when they put up a fight, Watts.
Mohawk: *snickers*
Viper: What are you laughing at bitch!?
Mohawk: *Sarcastically* Oh nothing just laughing at how weak these fools are. And how foolish you could be.
[One bursts out more energy and silences them all]
One: ENOUGH! If you all have complaints or any bickering, then so be it that I'll shut you up myself! Is that clear!
[A wave of energy surges through the air, ending the bickering between partners]
Meta Syndicate: Yes, Commander!
One: Now that we have this, we can finally bring our master back. Watts open the portal.
Watts: Of course.
[The man named Watts begins to scan the item in and opens a portal to another realm, One's bloodlust begins to boil]
One: I can feel it!
[One nears the portal]
One: THE POWER TO CHANGE EVERYTHING!
[Arthur takes a good look at One's face and remembers something about him from his past. He puts his hand up and tries to stop them, but all the seven figures go into the portal and disappear into nothing]
Arthur: (defeated) no...
[Two weeks later, in a hospital bed, Arthur is shocked and wakes up]
Arthur: GAGH!
[He breathes heavily and remembers everything that happened
West: Arthur, It's okay. You're safe.
[Next to him is a six foot man wearing a tan orange vest with no shirt under]
Arthur: Commander West?..how long have I been out.
West: You've been out for two weeks.
Arthur: Sir, I'm-
West: Stop, it's not your fault son.
Arthur: But I let them escape.
West: I know, but it was a tactical takedown.
Arthur: Sir?
West: They knew exactly what they were doing.
Arthur: And they ended up getting the map.
West: But we know where they are. We are sending a team to go after them, myself included. We just need one more member.
Arthur: One more?
West: This is your mess Arthur, and you're going to help fix it.
[Arthur is shocked and then laughs, but West looks at him with annoyance]
Arthur: Oh of course. I knew that.
[West continues to speak, proceeding to the next day, Arthur is discharged from the hospital and waits in the ship for his fellow members]
West: Meet us in the base starting tomorrow, all the preparations are complete and we are just waiting for you.
Arthur: Who are the other knights joining us?
[Arthur walks forward and sees two people one of them with dark skin and a ripped shirt and another in a shinobi uniform sharpening her kunai]
West: Agent Animal, Agent Kami.
[Arthur sees his friend Raymond who waves at him and a bright skinned tall nurse with a metal arm]
West: Agent Crystal, and your friend agent Raymond. He begged to come with us.
Arthur: Hehe of course he did.
[Everyone see the giant ship prepared for them, Axel walks up behind him]
Axel: Beautiful isn't she, she's called the Mother of Fortitude. A fine ship indeed
Arthur: It's nice.
[West gathers the knights]
West: Alright everyone, gather around.
[The five knights fall in line.]
West: You were all chosen for this mission for a specific reason. You all have experience, talent, and fought battles that most people don't come back from. But if there is anyone who wishes to step out, you are free to do it now.
[Kotoha smirk and speaks up]
Kotoha: Yeah, after hearing about these guys, how can we resist.
[Everyone nods in agreement]
West: Alright everyone, buckle up, they traveled to a different world and we managed to pinpoint their location.
[Coco squeals in excitement]
Coco: Oh exciting, experiencing a different world, now that is worth my time.
Arthur: Where are we going?
[West speaks up and answers his question]
West: To a world called the "Boiling Isles". Be prepared, everyone we don't know what we will face. So let's get on board.
Kotoha: Question: Do we even have a pilot?
Raymond: Why do you think I'm here?
[Kami looks at him]
Kotoha: Oh.
[The Mother of Fortitude begins to move and opens a portal to the Isles, everyone is in the ship and begins the warp]
West: Alright Shatter squad. Let's move out!
[The Mother of Fortitude warps to the Boiling Isles.]
