Freeman's Oddessy
Chapter: 204
Unwelcome on Mongo
Planet Mongo: Crossroads of this dimension
Upon barren land all is quiet until a portal opened up out of thin air. Gordon Freeman stepped out of the portal and the portal vanished behind him. The one free man found himself the source of these portals. A single planet, although he has no idea what the name of this world is.
Gordon originally arrive in this dimension, but it wasn't Earth. No, it was a different world more alien like than human like. A world which appeared to had been involved in a massive battle which happened some time ago and followed the portal trail to this planet. Wherever it maybe or it's name.
Gordon used his suits scanner program to scan this world for any Combine activity. Moments later there is no activity or signs of the Combine. However there is an odd assortment of life forms and technology.
He will go to this dimensions Earth next. The former scientist is fascinated by this planet. If he meets the locals he will simply ask them. A brisk breeze blows through him as he began to walk, his upgraded hazmat suit can handle any environment or environmental conditions.
Two hours later
Gordon Freeman spent the last two hours just walking. Surely he would come across someone by now as the scan did show numerous of life forms on this planet. He has an odd feeling he is being watched by someone or something. Up ahead he spotted a large palace with an odd red like color and looks high tech. He wondered who lives there.
Meanwhile in the palace a man is watching a stranger come upon his lands, his domain. Through a scope he knew one thing, this man is not his enemy Flash Gordon. He could be an ally of Flash Gordon or not. To him it did not matter, not did he care. This tresspasser will pay the price for coming to his world of Mongo.
A mere Earthman on his world. He will be delt with and then he will deal with Flash Gordon along with according to his spies on Earth their new allies. They will all fall under his might and when he has it his way. He will show them no mercy.
He stormed his way back to his throne, to sit there his red robe dragged behind him. His black boots stomped the floor as slaves and servants bow in respect and fear. Fear is what he loves the most. Everyone hated and feared him. Who is this man you ask?
His name is Ming the Merciless, emperor of Mongo and future ruler of Earth. The black bearded, headed shaved Ming sat down upon his throne, which he motioned for someone else to come towards him. The person bowed respectfully.
"Yes, my Lord," spoke the person
He is the grand vizier and right-hand man of Ming the Merciless and general of Mongo's secret police, the Black Sun. Klytus Ra Djaaran Klytus is wearing shimmering black robes, with a hood framing the gold, metallic mask on his face. He has a right arm that is immobile, without a sleeve, and is encased in gold.
"It seems we have an uninvited guest upon Mongo," said Ming "An Earthman and ally of Flash..." Ming growled at the name "Gordon. Send your best men to take care of this tresspasing interloper and bring him to me, I like to have him beg for mercy only then I will have him killed."
"With pleasure, my Lord." Said Klytus.
Ming nodded and Klytus turned to leave to carry out the order. The emperor of Mongo sneered in satisfaction, only then he got up from his throne and walked over to where is scope is located to watch this Earthman fall.
Once this interloper is taken care of, Ming can focus on Earth and Flash Gordon's new allies. They will be crushed by his might and nothing will stop him in taking over Earth and the universe.
The more close he got to the palace, Gordon felt like his skin is about to crawl. Why? Because the palace looked creepy and now by the looks of it. He has some company armed people of some sort and they don't look to friendly.
They're not Combine, so who are they? And they surrounded him. The one-free-man stands his ground and is unafraid of these people. Guess he came upon the wrong place to visit.
"In the name of Ming the Merciless," spoke one of them "You will beg for mercy, Earthman."
"Who the hell is Ming the Merciless," asked Gordon?
The armed people looked at each other and one of them spoke "Emperor of Mongo and soon conquer of Earth your planet Earthman."
"Stupid name for planet," said Gordon "I say take me to your leader, but it looks like you are making me feel unwelcomed on Mongo."
The armed people charged at him from all directions. Gordon has new toys to play with and pressed a button upon his wrist which gloves have formed and like the gravity gun these gloves are gravity gloves.
Along with the combination of the omni blade. He quickly bounced them around like toys and striking them down quicky by slicing them in half. It is a bloody mess which these people are torn apart.
"I might as well say hello to this jackass Ming," growled Gordon
Gordon approached the palace from gates, the drawbridge lowered as a alien tank rolled on out. Then the main cannon of the tank fired a death ray like beam at Gordon. His shields are already up which the beam slammed upon his shields.
The blast shook everywhere nearby including the palace. Smoke, fire and debris risen up in the air, until the dust had settled and Gordon Freeman standing there unharmed. Ming on the other hand had watched this unfold and is shocked to see this Earthman survive.
"That's impossible," muttered Ming
The one-free-man used his gravity gloves to move aside the tank, which it falls the palace moat below and the vehicle exploded afterwards. Gordon moved inside the palace and the inside is very large.
"Anybody see a jackass," called out Gordon "Ming the jackass, where are you."
No response, but Gordon pressed on as he found himself up against more of these armed people. Weird ones at best and he is no mood for games. He wanted answers and he will get them one way or another.
Ming the Merciless looked rather nervous and had ordered Kyltus to go personally handle this Earthman. What is he? Pondered the emperor of Mongo. An Earthman more formable than Flash Gordon.
He did not know. Ming has underestimated the Earth people, perhaps they are more formable than he realized. No, Ming's resolved harden his empire is strong he is strong and if his subjects have failed him. They he will personally handle the Earthman himself. The doors to the throne room are locked shut or so he thought.
The doors are blasted opened which the body of his right hand Kyltus is thrown across the room and bone chilling sounds are heard, which Kyltus body bounced like a pebble upon water until he crashed hard upon Ming's feet.
The Earthman walks in, how dare he. The gull of this Earthman to step upon his throne room is insulting to him. His eyes narrowed and glared at this piece of filth.
"I'm here to chew bubblegum, and kick ass." Said Gordon "But, I'm all out of bubble gum."
"You dare come here," snarled Ming "Who do you think you are dealing with, I am Ming the Merciless, Emperor of Mongo and.. "
"Oh, shut up will you." Said Gordon "I maybe not from this dimension, but don't think for one second you are going to attack Earth."
"I knew it," said Ming "You are an ally to Flash Gordon and Earth's new allies. No matter as I will handle you my self."
Ming stands up from his throne pulled back his cape, draws out his bladed weapon a sword and goes on to attack Gordon. The emperor of Mongo looked pretty confident that he can take down this Earthman himself. He is a master of combat.
Gordon matched Ming move for move with the blade as he had training in sword fighting. Until it was then Gordon got the upper hand by slicing off Ming's left hand and landed a right hook to the jaw of the Emperor of Mongo.. Ming is slumped to the floor and looked up at the Earthman.
"Strike me down," snarled Ming "I shall always come back stronger than before, you will pay a thousand fold for this insolence swine..."
"Emperor," spoke a guard "A ship is approaching Mongo, it's Flash Gordon's craft and he isn't alone."
Ming just laughed like a lunatic and Gordon turned his head to look outside to see a craft approaching the palace. Ming looked at his blade on the floor, he may have lost this day. However he will live to fight another day.
Ming was about to strike Gordon Freeman down. Only for the one-free-man eyes widen in shock to see Combine crafts are with the craft Flash Gordon's craft.
"Damn, he allied himself with the Combine." muttered Gordon
Without looking Gordon Freeman acted on instinct to slash at Ming the Merciless. The emperor of Mongo stopped and fell to the ground.
