Zoids

Dark Knight

By Spectral

Note: No I don't own Zoids or its characters. The Phantom, Black Wing Liger, and Cassandra are my characters. This story is also mine.

Okay, I came up with this story while building a Shield Liger model. It's an AU. The story features almost all of the normal Zoids characters and my characters, Phantom, Cassandra, and the Black Wing Liger.

Important Facts:

Zoids have now become real live animals. They are smaller and can still fight very well.

Doc and Leena are not related.

Phantom and Cassandra are related.

The story is set in an Old Kingdom (which means that small bits of sorcery will be included) ruled by Leena. She is at war with a rival kingdom ruled by the evil Harry Champ.

Now the story will begin.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Leena: How is he?

Doc: He's resting now but he's lucky Liger brought him in when he did.

Leena: Can I see him?

Doc: Yes but be careful, Liger's worried.

Leena: You better stay here then GS.

A small blue dinosaur at Leena's side nodded and sat down. Doc left the hall and Leena entered Bit's room. As she entered, the plain white lion that was sitting next to Bit's bed shot off the floor and was instantly at Leena's throat. It sniffed her a few times then backed away, it's head lowered in apology. Leena smiled a little then kneeled beside Bit.

The enemy's newest weapons had nearly killed the kingdom's greatest warrior. Bit was brought in by Liger. The Doc had managed to help Bit, but he would be in bed for months.

Leena: Bit… what could have done this to you…

Bit: *slowly opens eyes* Hydra…*cough* Leena?

Leena: Bit! You're awake… What is this Hydra?

Bit: The newest threat… *cough cough* it's invincible. We couldn't even scratch it…*falls asleep again*

Leena: Bit…

Liger walked over and sat down next to Bit's bed again. Leena got up and left the room. She was very worried. If her greatest warrior had almost been killed by the enemy's newest weapon, then nothing could stop Harry Champ from finally conquering her kingdom.

GS jumped off the floor and ran over to Leena. It seemed worried as well. Leena and GS walked down the hall until someone stopped them.

Jamie: What will we do, Leena?

(Leena is the queen of the land but her closest friends are aloud to call her by her name)

Leena: I just don't know, Jamie.

The green pterodactyl on Jamie's shoulder let out a cry and then was silent. Brad entered the room with a small black fox on his head.

Brad: I will fight even if there isn't a way to win

Jamie: I will too.

Leena: No, there's no reason to waste your lives…

Brad: We can't just let the Kingdom fall!

Leena: If this "Hydra" is powerful enough to defeat the two greatest warriors in the kingdom, then we have only one option.

Jamie: You can't possibly mean…

Leena: Yes I do. I will go off in search of the Legendary Dark Knight.

Brad: I won't allow it! It is far too dangerous! That "Knight" has killed anyone who has ever gone looking for him!

Jamie: Besides, what makes you think he'll help us!?

Leena: It doesn't matter! I can't just sit here and let my kingdom be conquered!

Brad: If that's the case then let us go!

Leena: No. You must stay here and defend the kingdom. I am going and that is final!

Leena and GS stormed off to Leena's room. Leena slammed the door. Brad and Jamie looked at one another and the fox on Brad's head seemed to laugh.

What'd you think? This was my first attempt at writing an AU. I'm going to go work on my other fics now…
