Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters!!!! I would also like to
hurt Scott McGough for killing off Skellum!!! (cough cough) anyway, on with
the show!
Chapter 1: Grudge Match
Skellum approached his mansion, striding elegantly up the walk. The servants around him busied themselves with various chores. He stepped inside, and went straightaway into his study. He sat down to write a letter, but did not quite know why he would want to write one anyway, as he had no one to write to. He decided he would summon Chainer for some extra cramming before the grudge match with the Order.
He moved to a large pentagram chalked on the floor. Muttering a few words, he made an obscure gesture with his arms and waved. A moment later, Chainer appeared in the middle of the pentagram with a loud pop. He looked around, bewildered. "Master, what's going on?" He tried to step outside the pentagram, but an invisible ward prevented it. Skellum grinned smugly.
"My Boy, this is another last test before the match this afternoon. Dementia space allows for limited teleportation, if you will." He began spinning his hat, slowly, then faster and faster, face slackening with every revolution. Finally the familiar vortex was where his head should be. "Observe." He raised his arms above his head and brought them down with a clap. The implosive sound of his monster production was heard, though nothing appeared. Skellum stood stock still, then crumbled to ashes on the floor.
Chainer stood in shock. Suddenly, he heard a rapping on the invisible ward behind him. Skellum stood, smirking. "Voila, an example. You can also intertwine it with an illusion, as I did, to mislead your opponents. Chainer set the censer down and lit a disk of Dragon's Blood, though it was in a confined space and made him hack uncontrollably. He concentrated, and in a moment the smoke cleared, and he was nowhere to be found. The floor next to Skellum shifted, and, like the flowstone of old, Chainer melted up from it. Skellum clapped politely. "Well done, Chainer. Go to the pits and give Teroh a good drubbing for me, alright?" Chainer grinned at this, and left out the door, nodding over his shoulder.
