Zoids
Dark Knight
Chapter 3
By Spectral
E-307: Greetings. This is one of the updates I found in Spectral's Demon Notebook. Eventually he'll catch that mime and come back to writing.
Disclaimer: Spectral does not own Zoids or its characters. He does own this story, Phantom, Cassandra, and the Black Wing Liger.
The Reddler flew on. Leena was bored. GS was also bored. The sky was dark and it began to rain.
Leena: Oh great… I'm bored and it's raining.
Suddenly GS looked up. She sensed danger. Lightning struck. The Reddler was frightened and it threw Leena and GS off.
They fell through the trees and landed with a thud.
Leena: Ow… I just had to say it…
Leena and GS got up and started walking. It was a short while before they came to a large clearing in the forest. They rested on a pile of rocks.
Leena: What's wrong GS?
GS was growling angrily at the ground. Something began coming out of the ground.
Leena: Guyzaks! And lots of 'em!
Hundreds of Guyzaks had risen from the ground. They had the rocks surrounded. The giant scorpions closed in and one fired a thin green stream of acid. The rock it hit began to melt.
Leena: *Pulls out sword* GS, let's go! WEASEAL UNIT TOTAL ASSUALT!
Leena swung her sword and a wave of fire flew from it. GS opened its mouth and fired a blast of fire at the Guyzaks. Many of the bugs were wiped out but for every one that was destroyed two more took its place.
Leena: Oh no… GET AWAY FROM ME!
Leena swung her sword wildly and GS hid behind her. Suddenly something came flying through the trees. A dark shadow flew overhead.
Leena: !
The Dark Knight began slicing at the guyzak while the Black Wing Liger spit balls of lightning at the arachnids. Cassandra walked up beside Leena and scared her.
Cassandra: Follow me. It's not safe here.
Cassandra pulled Leena and GS to the trees and they hid. The Dark Knight saw that they were safe and his sword began to glow. He made one large slash and a wave of lightning shot forth, annihilating all the guyzak in its path. The Black Wing Liger opened its mouth and fired a similar wave of destruction.
Leena: Wow!
Cassandra: Yes, my brother is impressive. He and the Black Wing Liger are unstoppable.
Leena: BROTHER!?!?!?!
Cassandra: Yes, he is my brother.
Leena: …
The knight and winged lion walked over to the girls. Cassandra walked over to her brother and stood by his side. The two of them then bowed to the Queen of their land. The Black Wing Liger did the same.
Leena: Does this mean what I think it means?
Cassandra: Yes, Queen. The Dark Knight, Black Wing Liger, and I will help to defend the kingdom.
Leena: OH YEAH! Harry's going down!
All three warriors fell over as Leena and GS celebrated.
**That night**
They were all still in the clearing. Leena and Cassandra were sitting near the fire. The Dark Knight was sitting down and scratching the Black Wing Liger's ears. GS was asleep, curled up next to Leena. Cassandra's Helcat was curled up on top of GS. Leena and Cassandra were talking.
Leena: Doesn't he speak? *Gestures to Dark Knight*
Cassandra: He used to. He's been silent ever since we lost our other brother. We lived in an old village before the war. Our parents had died and he had taken charge. He raised us both. He and our brother were two of the village guards. When the war started, the Champ Armies attacked the village. Both of my brothers and their Ligers fought. They were beaten. There were far to many of the enemy. Our brother went missing. We fled from the village and came to Shadow Mountain. He became the Dark Knight. We both vowed to get stronger and one day find out brother. He had the feeling that we'd see him again after you came to see us.
Leena: Oh man… that's depressing…
Later, everyone but the Dark Night was asleep. He looked up at the clear night sky and smiled. Things were gonna get fun.
