It had been five hours flying far to the east to where Uoi was on the Air train. The ones inside were Jak, Daxter, Torn, Ashelin, Keira, Ratchet, Clank, Sly, Bentley, and Murray.
Daxter was doing the typical "Are we there yet?" like that one person does whenever they go with their friends on vacation. Except this was no vacation. This led to Torn telling Daxter to shut up or else he'll throw him off the Air train.
(A/N: This entire scene has been inspired by the Kong: Skull Island)
It was starting to get dark. Everyone could see a huge storm ahead. "What is that?" Torn asked, immediately worried about everyone's safety.
The pilot replied "Energy levels are spiking off. It's nothing like we've seen before, sir."
"Can you get us around?" Ashelin ordered.
"Negative." The pilot answered.
"We're gonna have to go right through it." The co-pilot suggested and as much Ashelin didn't want to she gave the order and nobody was expecting this. It was a bumpy ride as the Air train was shaking due to the pressure of the huge storm.
Daxter screamed and reminded himself when he went through the Rift gate and came to the future with Samos, Jak, and Keira.
The Air train was still shaking even more so than usual that everyone was worried that it was going to blow up. The pilot shouted "We're gonna reach the endpoint of this storm! Hang on!"
The Air train shook even more and the storm started to get more violent with powerful thunderstorms. Sly felt like throwing up as he wasn't used to this kind of ride. An image came to his mind in a flash. It was of a man in a white cloak.
Who was that? Sly asked in his thoughts. It may have been a brief image in his mind but it was powerful enough to show him something. About what he doesn't know.
The storm started to now change weather and create a powerful hurricane, it almost blew off the engine of the air train.
"Land us somewhere near!" Torn ordered.
"We can't, sir! The joystick's stuck!" The pilot exclaimed.
"I think the engine is going to explode!" The co-pilot told the pilot as they kept switching buttons and other stuff to get out of the storm.
As they flew a bit closer, the air train successfully passed the storm giving an area very beautiful water and islands. However, there were also giant pillars of rock so the pilots kept flying away from them as best as possible. Sadly, they managed to hit one pillar on the side of the air train and were about to crash landing.
Daxter, Murray, and Bentley screamed as loud as if the island could hear them.
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTT!
Everyone was taking a breath after such an immense action.
"Everyone... alright?" Ratchet asked, taking a few breaths.
"Yeah..." Jak was the first to reply.
"Ditto..." Sly said.
"I think we should get out of here," Torn ordered as everyone exited through the large hatch in back.
The two pilots, Keira, Daxter, Ashelin, Torn, Jak, Ratchet, Clank, Sly, Bentley, and Murray, despite a few scratches on them, were fine and well.
Murray commented and observed the area. "What is this place? It's beautiful!" There were beautiful waterfalls and even waterfalls within waterfalls, forests, rivers flowing, flowers blooming, trees with purple and red leaves.
Bentley agreed "It sure is, pal. I've never anything quite like it."
"This is going to be a long journey from here on out," Daxter whined.
"I assume this area hasn't been explored?" Clank asked Keira.
"Nope, never seen this place on a map. But it sure is good to explore it and find out more about it." Keira added.
"I see. Let us work together on this." Clank suggested.
Sly walked around for a bit before noticing the flowers were starting to bloom faster than ever. "That's weird," he paused. "Bentley come look at us."
Bentley came to Sly and asked him "What's up?"
He gestured to the flowers blooming at a faster rate. "Fascinating. This is intriguing. We don't see this kind of stuff on Earth. I'll have to take a sample of this and analyze it with Clank and Keira."
As he did that, Sly went back to talk to Torn about what to do.
[Earth; Paris, police station]
Carmelita was about having enough dealing with a few of the officers that were giving her reports. It was already stressful enough about Nazar and his doing, but now that she has to keep it as a secret from everyone else. It hurts knowing everything.
Flashback...
"I told you everything about myself and Shadowis. What I didn't tell you is why the Masters of Doom was formed or what they're after."
"I see. Go on." Carmelita processing what he was about to tell her.
"The Masters of Doom was formed by a man known as Mr. Z. He runs their show and business. Once long ago, I defeated Shadowis sealing inside a huge crystal one which he can never break into. I don't know how, but Mr. Z managed to obtain that crystal and freed Shadowis from his as such they began to work together to form the Masters of Doom, only on one condition..." Nazar paused.
"And that is?" Carmelita asked.
"Killing innocent people." He replied nonchalantly.
This shocked and confused Inspector Fox. "What do you mean? He killed one of our officers! Innocent people my ass!"
"Anyone who stands against him will die. He thinks he's almighty and such. However, Shadowis doesn't believe in killing innocents whereas Mr. Z would have no harm in doing so. As such this agreement would last on in their organization. Mr. Z would run it in sending either teams or lone-wolves. It is believed that Mr. Z has an entire own goal as opposed to Shadowis," he paused. "He's after the Q-Crystal. A powerful item that can grant the user power beyond the Precursors. It can only be unlocked somewhere in the Great Clock. And of course, he would need something on Earth to get a code. A code that is in the Theivius Raccoonus."
This surprised Carmelita instantly even more.
"There's more to this. It's hidden in the past of Earth and still sealed away. A dragon sealed by another past Warrior of the Universe. It's Morbius's and he seeks to wreak havoc to the universe with it." Nazar explained.
"A dragon..." Carmelita couldn't what she was hearing.
"If Morbius succeeds, we'll all be doomed," Nazar said.
Carmelita was still trying to process all of this. "This has to be a joke," she chuckled a little bit.
"I mean this just can't be real..." She fell into her chair and held hands on her forehead. Her whole world of reality shattered.
"In due time, we'll meet again. I hope that was enough to tell you the situation." Nazar stated before vanishing in bright light.
End Flashback...
She crossed her arms and had shivers down her spine seeing as how this whole thing explained to her was still hard to believe. Everyone would be so skeptical, even Bentley would've been if he were to hear this. Aliens, dragons, warrior of the universe, these all sound completely made-up, but there it was. In front of her as truth, dead in stone. She took a huge sip from her coffee and began to work or work.
More reports came about an interesting point of interest. One of the Masters of Doom is willing to talk; Mr. C.
[Jak's Homeworld; Mysterious land in the Far East]
After having a huge debate about everyone split off to either explore or gather resources this mysterious land. It was in groups of three:
Jak, Murray, and Torn were to gather resources like any food, etc...
Daxter, Ashelin, and Ratchet were to find materials for the air train for repairs.
Sly, Keira, Bentley, and Clank were to explore the land and see what they could gather.
Although to be fair, only one group was reaching to meet with Uoi as the original mission was about to be.
With Jak, Murray, and Torn...
"Find anything?" Jak asked the pink hippo who replied with nodding 'no'.
"I think it's best to keep searching for food in that direction." Murray gestured as he pointed out his sense of smell was increased by coming here.
"Well, then, lead the way!" Torn exclaimed as they followed Murray.
With Daxter, Ashelin, and Ratchet...
"So, how exactly are we going to get materials for the air train in this crap?" Daxter asked.
"Quite easy, we find it and take it. See if it's usable. Heck, even a town might be able to help." Ratchet suggested.
"I severely doubt a town would be on this island after that crazy storm we just went through." The ottsel said as he crossed his arms and lowered his ears before turning around after hearing something in the bushes. He immediately dismissed it as the other two were getting ahead of him and so he wanted to catch up.
With Sly, Keira, Bentley, and Clank...
"I believe in 60 meters, we're able to see some sort of building," Clank said.
"A building? Here? I can't imagine living in such a place." Keira said skeptically.
"I'll have to check on that," Sly said as he leaped and kept walking and jumping off tree branches.
"Sixty meters is going to be very long traveling." Bentley facepalmed.
"But what would a building be here for?" Keira asked herself that question as they continued to walk.
As such the real meaning of this adventure begins...
[Metropolis; Kerwan]
Qwark didn't want to run, but he also knew that Ratchet and Clank could defeat these guys. He didn't know what was going on, but he quickly needed to get some communications station and contact them immediately. Ever since they went on some adventure, things have been getting worse here.
The slimy creatures were sure of destroying everything. Buildings are melted like butter once they get touched.
"I need to contact Talwyn." Qwark said to himself. It's a freaking invasion going on here!
He started to notice the slimy creatures were getting destroyed suddenly by a man in a white hooded-cloak who appeared from bright light and fired a huge blast from his fists. He was also flying which isn't something you expect to see every day on Metropolis.
"Who the heck is that he's awesome?!" Qwark cheered him on.
The white-cloaked figure rammed his body through the slimy creatures and they were instantly destroyed. He also flew behind Qwark and Qwark got scared screaming "Why are you after me?! I didn't do anything to you!"
"Qwark, calm down! I'm an ally of ratchet and Clank!" The man shouted.
This stopped Qwark in his tracks. "What?! You know Ratchet and Clank!" Qwark screamed, excited to hear about his friends.
"Yes, my name is Nazar. I know of them and they're safe. Right now, this invasion is going on. I need your help." Nazar said.
Qwark was surprised that this guy just shows and introduces himself like this. He must be really powerful, he thought to himself about Nazar.
"There are about exactly 100 of those creatures on this planet," Nazar said, "Those damned fools are planning to take the whole planet with them as an example for their might."
"Well, yeah, it's an invasion. What do you expect?" Qwark sarcastically said.
"You don't understand what at stake here. The enemy, known as the Masters of Doom, are invading your planet. The Galactic Rangers cannot defeat these guys on their own." Nazar explaining the situation.
"I can see that. But what do you want me to do about it?" Qwark asked, getting worried about all this.
"We're gonna have to strike them all down."
At hearing this suggestion, Qwark's jaw dropped to the floor. "Are you crazy?!"
"We don't have any other choice. And don't you have a weapon you can use?"
"Well, yeah... but I'm not sure it can be used against these guys..." Qwark put his hand in the back of his hand, feeling skeptical of it working.
"Don't worry try your best, I'll fight along with you," Nazar stated firmly.
This was enough motivation for Qwark to use his Quantum Deflector and rolled against the slimy creatures, while it didn't do much, it was enough for Nazar to come in and strike them.
"Yoohoo! Mr. Ugly! Look at me!" Qwark taunted a few of the creatures who raised their arms to smash Qwark, but powerful blasts burst through them as they turned to ashes.
At a nearby ship...
Mr. Z growled "Nazar..." He sighed and realized this invasion may be tougher than he thought. " Pity he could've joined us..."
[Earth; Paris; Police Station]
Carmelita entered the interrogation room to talk with Mr. C.
"So, my colleagues tell me you're willing to talk. Why is that?" Inspector Fox began to ask.
"I'm done with the lifestyle of a criminal. I'll tell you everything." Mr. C replied with a sad tone to his voice.
"Alright begin." The inspector let him begin...
[Jak's Homeworld; Mysterious land in the Far East]
With Sly, Keira, Bentley, and Clank...
Sly jumped up from one branch to another and ran further as the rest of the group followed. A second later there was a scream heard throughout the forest.
"What was that?!" Bentley and Clank cried.
A scream occurred again this time everyone heard it coming from the building.
"I'll go on ahead and see what's up. We might not be the only ones on this island." Sly said.
As he ran, leaped, jumped across branches he was able to reach the building in such a short time. As he was about to approach the building, he waited for the others to come.
Clank flew Keira over with his Heli-Pack in about 6 minutes and Bentley hovered over there as quickly as possible.
"Anything?" Sly asked everyone.
"Let's just enter it and see what it's in it," Keira said as everyone followed to see that the door opened automatically. Sly entered first and saw a lot of hallways and staircases that lead to different rooms.
"It's looked smaller on the outside, but it's bigger on the inside!" Bentley commented as he looked around.
Clank was scanning to see any other lifeforms were here.
Keira also looked around and kept seeing Precursor items all around. "Precursor artifacts!" She cried out.
"Whoever was here must have been using or trying to activate them," Keira states as she decided to look at some of them, although she wondered why these items were scattered all across the floor, it leads to a nearby room. Keira and Bentley entered it and were shocked to see tons of tools, test tubes, and chemicals knocked off from shelves and tables.
"What a mess!" Bentley exclaimed.
Keira agreed "Tell me about it. Whoever was here must've been very angry at something to do all of this."
Sly and Clank also entered to see the room and of course everyone checked around to find any clues.
Sly appeared to step on a book and picked it up swiftly.
He showed it Keira and was shocked. The master thief asked, "Something the matter?"
"This book details how to modify Precursor robots. However, from what I can tell it's a bit incomplete." Keira mentioned.
"I remember Jak talking about those things," paused Sly. "Ratchet and Clank also mentioned encountering one in space before they crashed land here."
"Indeed, and it appears so someone was here modifying them. Anyone think it might be our friend 'Uoi'?" Clank said.
"He's probably doing it for the Masters of Doom. But it seems like there was a struggle here or maybe he quit and destroyed everything to cover his tracks." Bentley said as he put his hand on his chin.
"I think it's best to keep investigating this place," Sly affirmed as everyone else agreed and got out of the room.
With Daxter, Ashelin, and Ratchet...
The forest was very huge and wondrous. Ashelin walked ahead of the other two as they were acting a mutual conversation. It appears Daxter was telling a story about his hero tales.
"So there I was, 100 Metal Heads appeared out-of-nowhere, Jak and I stopped them with ease. I took out about 50 of them with my bare hands!" Daxter shouted with pride as he clenched his fist.
"And what about Jak?" Ratchet asked.
"Oh, he took care of the rest with his weapons. No biggie." Daxter said about his best friend.
"I see." Ratchet said as the group continued walking. He then asked "You know you and Jak talk about these 'Metal Heads'. Never even heard or seen one in any galaxy I've been in."
"That's cause we took out the Metal Head leader, Kor. And jeez was he ugly." Daxter said in disgust as he made face reminding himself of Kor.
Ratchet wondered how ugly the Metal Head leader was and he's seen some disgusting ones himself.
Ashelin wondering more about Ratchet asked him a question. "Since you're from outer space, what's it like out there?"
Ratchet heard her question and answered briefly "Lots of stuff going on. Bounty hunters, space pirates, asteroid belts, and yes even other planets."
Ashelin smiles at the thought of visiting another planet. "Interesting could you recommend us some to visit?"
"Sure, Kerwan, Veldin—."
Ashelin interrupted him "Not now. I was hoping you'd tell me later after we finish our deal with the Masters of Doom."She couldn't imagine the amount of planets both of Ratchet and Clank have visited.
"Wait, what is that?" Daxter gestured to what appears to be a small town. Ashelin and Ratchet tried to see what the ottsel was seeing.
Daxter was cheering it on with a few Woohoos! and dancing. Ratchet, however, pointed out "We don't see anything."
Daxter froze in a dancing position and asked "What?!"
"We don't see anything Dax," Ashelin stated to her friend.
"You guys are clearly crazy if you don't see that town there!" The ottsel jumped up and down while gesturing to the town he's seeing.
"Still don't see it." Ratchet said as Ashelin agreed.
"I know I'm not crazy! I see the town right there!" He shouted in anger and kept pointing at the same direction.
Ashelin stared at the place Daxter was pointing at: nothing. She turned to look at the ottsel and asked "Are you sure you're not hallucinating?"
"Hallucinating?!" Daxter growled.
The lombax decided to tell Daxter to lead the way to the town. Daxter calmed down and complied to do so. The trio went off the way to the mysterious town.
With Jak, Murray, and Torn...
"Oh boy look at all this food!" Murray screamed in excitement to eat all of it and he was carrying a large of fruits and vegetables.
"Hey there, big guy, don't go eating it all. Save some for the rest of us." The blonde-hero said to the pink hippo.
"I'll try." Murray said as his stomach could be heard growling.
The trio made some accomplishment in gathering up a lot of food although Torn was weary in trusting Murray with the food. Within one hour they were able to return to the crash site were the two pilots set up base.
Murray laid all the food in a pile and said he would go out and search for more.
"No one else came?" Torn asked the pilots as they both shrugged their shoulders implying 'I don't know'.
"Well we know Keira and the rest of her group are exploring. I'm surprised Dax and his group haven't come with any materials." Jak stated.
"How long do you want to wait for them?"
"Give about 2 hours." Jak estimated.
At that Jak and Torn sat it out waiting for everyone to come. As they did that, a nearby bush someone was watching them with binoculars.
With Daxter, Ashelin, and Ratchet...
After walking for what seemed to about 30 minutes, Ratchet's head started to ache. As they got closer to the "town" Daxter kept talking about, the more his head was hurting.
"You okay?" Ashelin asked him and he shook his head 'yes'.
They reached the town and Daxter was itching to see how wrong they were. Ratchet put his hands on his head and started screaming "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
"Ratchet!" Ashelin screamed as he fell onto the ground and was screaming really loudly.
Daxter didn't know what to do other run to the town, Ashelin yelled at him to get back here. He didn't listen as she ran after him and as soon as she did her foot touched something that must've deactivated something like a force field cause she can see the town that Daxter was talking about.
However, it was an advanced town. You can see a lot of Precursor technology used here. She was shocked to see such a place.
A group of people approached her. "Damn it!" she cussed under her breath and looked to see Ratchet was still aching in pain.
"Who goes there?" One person asked with a gun pointed at her as there were 15 others following him. They were all wearing Precursor armor similar to that of Jak's armor.
She raised her arms and and stated 'We mean no harm. My friend's head hurts and is in pain. Can you help?"
"We don't accept outsiders." Another person said.
"Please you got to help my friend." Ashelin pleaded.
"Hey, what's holding you up, Ashelin?" Daxter returned and was shocked to see so many people.
All the men paused and one broke their silence instantly, "A Precursor has returned."
Daxter immediately realized what was going on, these men worshiped the Precursors, so give them Orange Lightning.
[On a distant planet]
Shadowis returned to the purple desert planet to talk his master, Morbius.
"You have returned my apprentice. But I sensed our plan is going under way as proceeded." Morbius stated.
"Yes, my master. Every thing is going as planned. Nazar, the Zoni, and the Precursors will never defeat us. Not even those heroes." Shadowis explained with honor and pride.
"And Lucio?" Morbius asked about Shadowis's apprentice.
"He failed in his mission because Nazar was a nuisance. He's intervening with our plans." Shadowis answered with disappointment.
"Then send him to lead the invasion on Jak's Homeworld, you'll be with him on that plan." Morbius ordered.
"Yes, my master." Shadowis bowed.
"Soon I will have every thing I once desired. The legacy of the Precursors will be gone." Morbius as his spirit returned to the jar that he was sealed inside in.
[Jak's Homeworld; Mysterious land in the Far East]
With Sly, Keira, Bentley, and Clank...
The group continued to walk in the building as nothing much was seen. Almost all the rooms were either chemistry sets or engineering rooms to build weapons and cars.
Keira picked up a few materials such as tools and newer parts for the engine, but it didn't stop there. Sly found tons of useful material for Clank and Bentley to use for a better and newer Air Train.
"I guess our part is a success." Clank stated.
Bentley agreed, "Indeed, we have so many things to do with these new parts we found.
Sly looked around the structure one last time before following the group. Something's off about all of this. It's like it's too convenient. A building in the middle of nowhere after Keira stated her people never seen this area before. It just doesn't feel right. Sly let go of his thoughts for now and he heard Clank and Bentley were discussing Octonion numbers and their fascination with them.
Sly went back to his thoughts and remembered that image he had before the crash: the man in the white cloak. Who was he? Why was he plaguing his mind?
"I'm detecting a life-form coming for us ahead." Clank pointed out.
"A life-form?" Keira and Bentley cried out.
"Yes, headed for us in five, four, three, two..." Clank stopped as they all saw what he was talking about. A fair-skinned woman dressed in all black dress with red heels, has red wavy hair, pointy ears similar to that Keira, and looked to be 25 years old.
"And you are?" Bentley asked the woman dressed in black.
The woman only replied "I am Enchanta and I serve Morbius." She let out a large sonic scream that was red.
Red Eco! Keira thoughts got the best of her as she and everyone dodged it and the sonic scream hit the wall behind them destroying it.
Sly took a stance and said "I figured this place was very convenient and your screams were the ones we heard earlier. And I'm guessing you serve the Masters of Doom."
"Indeed, I do serve them. For Master Morbius," Enchanta said in a snake-like voice. Sly told everyone to run for it as he'll take of her.
She prepared for another one of her screams at them, failed because Sly whacked her twice with his cane.
"Looks like you're going to be fun," Sly smiled.
With Murray...
Since he want on his own to get some extra food (and he did get some extra food), he couldn't help but feel being watched. He called out "You can stop hiding! The Murray is not afraid of you!"
No one appeared to him and he congratulated himself as he thought it was probably an animal or someone he scared off.
He quickly returned back to the base where Jak and Torn and the two pilots awaited him.
"Nice job, Murray," happily said Jak seeing piling the extra food he brought.
"thank you." Murray said and he also said he felt like someone was watching him but probably scared them off.
Jak and Torn took this seriously and searched around. "Did the enemy ever show their face to you?" Torn asked.
Murray replied "Nope."
"Then I think we should be on the alert. It's been almost two hours and no one's come." Jak suggested, feeling the worst for his new allies and Keira.
Things weren't starting to look good until Murray noticed someone in the bushes and grabbed the person up in the air abruptly.
"Aaah, unhand me foul creature!" said an elderly man with a clean white/greyish hair and a very long, scruffy beard, pointy ears like Jak and Torn and sporting blue gloves pants and a white lab coat. Murray held onto him with his bare hands and did not let go unless he was given orders.
"Caught you in the act of watching us." Torn stated.
"Now tell us who are you?" Jak asked him, clenching his fists.
The man struggled to speak, but managed to be clear "I'm Uoi. Dr. Uoi."
All three shouted "Uoi!" Murray put him down gently and apologized for carrying him like that.
"I didn't expect you to be a doctor." Torn stated out loud.
"Neither do most people who come to this island." Dr. Uoi said as he brushed off a few dust and fixed his lab coat. "And may I ask as why are you all here?"
"To find you." The trio answered.
"Find me?" Uoi was puzzled by this. "Why?"
"Because you know something about the Masters of Doom." Jak answered for everyone. "It was our original mission only we crashed through the storm and now are just staying here."
"I see. You went through the Eco Storm I created." Uoi said, shocking both Torn and Jak.
"Wait, you created that? An Eco Storm?" Torn asked in astonishment.
"Yes, as a defense mechanism against the Masters of Doom. But some are hunting me in this island and they managed to get through that storm with ease. With the help of Shadowis." Uoi said in sadness.
With Daxter, Ashelin, and Ratchet...
Dream Sequence...
Ratchet was in a weird place, or maybe in the middle of space. He saw two figures talking: one in red armor and looked like a demon, the other in a white cloak.
"What are you doing here?" The one in red armor asked, increasing in his anger. The man in the white cloak replied "To make this right. To end your suffering." he replied with concern.
The one in red armor growled at him "I'm not suffering... you just don't understand my power and are afraid of it."
"Your power to destroy? The man in the white cloak asked, even feeling more concern.
Ratchet was about to talk before the red armored dude started to scream "You let innocent people die! You are no protector! You are no savior! My anger is towards you!"
The man in the white cloak retorted "You're a hypocrite! What you did on Earth! You almost killed half the police!"
"I wasn't going to kill them. I was showing them a lesson of fear. The Earthlings puny weapons is quite laughable compared to other planets, other galaxies," he walked towards the man in the white cloak. He spoke in an unforgiving voice "And now sooner or later, they'll bow."
Ratchet wanted to speak to stop these two from arguing as he kept screaming "Hey!" about a thousand times. The two people disappeared and out of nowhere the man in the white cloak approached him. Ratchet got spooked and tried to run. However, he couldn't. He felt extremely paralyzed and felt this guy was going to hurt him and the more he was approaching him the more scared he felt of him.
The man in the white cloak called out to him "Ratchet, my name is Nazar. I am the Warrior of Universe. I'm your ally."
Dream Sequence ends...
Ratchet woke up frantically, taking heavy breaths. What was that just now?
He turned to see Ashelin was next to him scared by him waking up. She had some courage to speak "You're awake. That's good to see."
"What happened?" The lombax asked, still taking heavy breaths.
Ashelin told him to look outside the window next to him and what he saw was... weird...
"They're worshiping Daxter? Wait, a town!" Ratchet astonished jerked his head quickly to Ashelin who told him that the town Daxter was correct except it was invisible to anyone who wasn't a Precursor.
Ratchet feeling a bit confused and Ashelin instantly explained about how Daxter was the same species as the Precursors.
"So, he's god-like?" Ratchet was very surprised to hear that.
She chuckled and explained the situation of how Dax used his Precursor lineage as a way to get Ratchet help and gather materials for the air train. She also said that she contacted Torn as to where they are.
"Thank goodness." Ratchet said while relaxing on the bed.
With Sly, Keira, Bentley, and Clank...
Booom! Boooom! Pfffft!
The whole building shakes with a loud crashing booms caused by Enchanta. A huge piece of the roof had been torn off. Keira, Clank, and Bentley were heading towards the exit while Sly was holding off with Enchanta.
All sounds echoed as the group escaped through the exit waiting for Sly to come back.
"This will not end well for you, Cooper!" Enchanta shouted as she flew and fired her sonic screams again.
Sly was getting tired but not giving up. He only jumped and dodged her attacks not taking any damage, but she caused a lot of destruction. He hasn't been able to hit her at all. He needed to end this now.
The thief taps his cane on the ground, imbuing the hook of his cane with electrical energy and charges forward Enchanta. He jumped across to deliver a final blow, but she dodged his attack, by simply copying his dodge moves from before.
Great this is going to be harder he said in his thoughts. I'm used to more stealth than being a muscle. This would Murray's job. However, given the circumstances, I'm here fighting this woman to protect my friends and allies. Sly gave himself some motivation.
Sly charges his cane with an orange aura after the initial swipe, and spin when it was released doing three rotations onto Enchanta. This time she didn't dodge because Sly ran a bit fast. Then he did the same attack again this time in four rotations. And he did it again to deliver it as a final blow, he did nine rotations.
Enchanta got pushed back but she was still strong to give another sonic scream this time it was more powerful causing Sly's ears to go out.
Meanwhile outside, Bentley was calling for his friend.
Keira was in her thoughts as she thought about the woman's ability to use Red Eco like that. That woman was using Red Eco, there's no doubt about it. But how was she able to manipulate into sound let alone use it so elegantly like it was nothing.
Clank pointed out that the two were still fighting. Bentley was relieved to hear this and cheered Sly on to defeat her. Keira, however, disagreed with this sentiment and was worried about Sly's safety against this powerful user of Red Eco.
Inside the building, Sly remarked "Still have fight in you, huh." he still the damage to his ears, although he fought through it
Enchanta had no response only that she served Morbius. She let another powerful scream and Sly jumped a very long distance and lands on all fours on the ground and successfully dodges the sonic scream. He charged at Enchanta by pushing his cane and then twirling it 3 times while moving forward with the push.
Enchanta was pushed back even further than before. It still wasn't enough and Sly was running out of options.
Enchanta started to channel Red Eco and flew towards Sly giving him a huge punch to the chest. He coughed as he was launched into a wall.
Enchanta proceeded to elbow smash Sly, but he blocked with his cane. She then attempted to punch onto Sky's face, but he blocked again with his cane. He strikes her with his cane again, but was coughing so much from the punch she gave earlier, it failed.
Using this as her advantage, she threw a punch at him, but he quickly blocked it with his cane again. Getting angry, Enchanta kicked Sly on the ribs, but he blocked it with his cane again. She then went behind him, and attempted to uppercut punched onto his back. It was successful enough for Sly to fall down. She tried to do the same thing again onto Sly as he was struggling to get up.
He kept coughing and coughing. His life flashed before his eyes like the time dealing Dr. M on Kaine Island.
The image came again of the man in the white cloak. The man started to speak to Sly in his mind. "My name is Nazar. I'm the Warrior of the Universe. I'm your ally."
Enchanta laughed as she kicked his face twice. He was breathing heavy now. This was the second time he had been beaten down by an enemy. The first was Shadowis, now Enchanta.
"I serve Morbius to defeat heroes like you." Enchanta said darkly.
She kept kicking in everywhere. Sly was hurting pretty badly. He was having a hard time breathing as well.
Is this how it ends for me? His thoughts flowed as he was about to fall into a deep sleep. Then instantly before he closed his eyes, he saw the man in the white cloak, Nazar confront Enchanta than passed out.
"You!" She screeched as he approached and touched her arm creating a huge burn. She screamed in agony.
"Get out now! And tell your master Morbius, he will fail!" Nazar screamed. As she cried in pain, she flew out of the building.
Sly tried to be awake, but closed his eyes again, knowing the voice.
"You're the guy I keep seeing since I came here. You're the one I heard about back on Earth (cough) what are you doing here?" Sly asked.
"To help you and your new friends." He replied and he stuck out his hand to heal some of the injuries.
Sly coughed "Thank you."
"It's nothing really. I should've came sooner. But rules are rules, my young friend." Nazar said as he smiled a bit at Sly.
"Why are you here no—" he coughed and didn't even try to speak.
"I'm only a clone sent by the original to guide you and the other heroes. However, I reveal myself to the others in my own way. For now rest up and complete your mission." Nazar stated.
Sly struggled to speak "Clone? Like..." he breathed in and out. "A biological one?"
Nazar chuckled "Technique. I can create clones and uncreate when we've done our purpose." He continued "For now your allies and friends will find you. Don't tell them that you've met me yet."
Sly nodded and fell asleep.
