ZOIDS
Darkness on the Battlefield; Enter the Phantom
By: Spectral
CHAPTER 20
Note: I still own the Phantom and Black Wing Liger but zoids and its characters are not mine…
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
The NightShade, Schieder, GunSniper, Shadow Fox, and Raynos waited. The Shadow Stalker Team was supposed to be there any minute. No Judge had shown up. Phantom had informed the Blitz Team that no Judge would be present.
A Whale King landed and deployed a Molga, two Gojulas, and a Reddler. There was a short moment of nothing, then the Reddler struck. It sliced a wing right off the Raynos. Jamie's zoid plummeted to the ground and Jamie was knocked out. The Molga and Gojulas had yet to move.
Leena: WEASEL UNIT TOTAL ASSAULT!
Leena's attack was about to blast the enemy zoids to next month, but an energy shield suddenly protected them. The Schieder roared and charged forward. Its blades flipped forward and began to glow. It jumped but was smashed back by the energy shield.
The Molga lowered the shield and started trading fire with the Shadow Fox. One Gojulas dueled with the Schieder as the other seemed to walk away. The GunSniper tried to avoid the Reddler as the Nightshade stood still.
The Reddler smashed into the GunSniper and knocked it out of the battle. One Gojulas had a foot holding down the Schieder as the Molga used its energy shield to pin the Shadow Fox against a mountain. The other Gojulas walked over to the downed Raynos and stopped.
Bit: What is he doing?
The Gojulas raised one foot above the head of the Raynos. The rest of the Blitz Team watched in horror.
Bit: JAMIE!
Leena: Jamie get out of there now!
Jamie was still unconscious. The Gojulas began to lower its leg when…
SMASH
The Gojulas was knocked over by the NightShade. It could not get back up. The Nightshade then turned to the Molga. It jumped into the air and clamped its jaws on the Molga. The Liger picked the Molga up and flung it at the downed Gojulas.
The other Gojulas had moved away from Bit's zoid, which has now immobile. It went away some distance before pointing both it's Buster Cannons at the Schieder. Bit tried to move the liger, but couldn't. Leena was terrified.
Leena: BIT!
Suddenly the NightShade slammed the Schieder away. It turned to move but the Reddler fired a net. The Net pinned the NightShade down as the Gojulas charged its cannons.
BOOM
All that was left was flaming wreckage. The Blitz Team was petrified. The Schieder was suddenly able to work again. It roared.
Renegade: Well that takes care of the Phantom!
Bit: You murderers!
Renegade: HAHAHAHA!
BOOM
The Reddler went down. The Shadow Fox's Special Laser Vulcan Gun was smoking. The Gojulas fired and blew the Shadow Fox out of the battle. The liger turned to see the Gojulas pointing both of its cannons at it. Bit had no escape, the Gojulas on one side, a mountain on the other.
???: STRIKE LASER CLAW!
The Gojulas staggered and fell over. The Nightshade roared and walked over to the Schiender.
Bit: But...but...but how?
The wreckage suddenly disappeared. It was a Hologram.
Phantom: Is everyone okay?
Bit: We're fine…
**Back at Base**
Everyone was in the Medical Bay. Jamie was still knocked out and had a bandage on his head, Brad's left leg was wrapped up, Leena had a neck brace on and an ice pack on her head, Bit's right arm was in a sling and he had an ice pack on his left wrist, and Phantom's ribs were bandaged and he was cleaning a cut on his shoulder.
Doc: We may have won, but we didn't get any prize money…
The team gave Doc an evil look and then forced him out of the room.
** A Few Days Later**
The Blitz Team had fully recovered and went back to their daily lives.
**Hanger**
Bit was working on the Liger. He didn't notice something sneak up behind him. It hit him on the back of the head. Bit fell to the floor and was dragged off.
**Tactics Room**
Jamie sat typing at the computer. He couldn't put up a fight as a rag with some sort of chemical on it was placed over his face. He fell, unconscious, and was dragged off.
**Phantom's Room**
Phantom was at his desk reading a letter. Someone was sneaking up behind him. Phantom knew. Just as the mystery person was about to strike, Phantom turned around and landed a kick to the person's jaw.
**Lounge**
Bit woke up. He tried to move but couldn't. He was gagged and tied to a chair. He looked around. Jamie, Leena, Doc, and Brad were also tied and gagged. He didn't see Phantom anywhere. Just then he noticed the room was filled with gun-toting men. They were all dressed in military clothes. The base had been taken over.
**Phantom's Room**
After knocking out the military-like person, Phantom turned on the surveillance he set up in the base. The base was crawling with soldiers. The rest of the Team was being held in the lounge. Phantom sighed and got up.
Phantom: Looks like I have something to do today after all…
