Zoids
Origin of The Phantom
By, Spectral
Notes:
I don't own zoids or its characters but I do own Phantom and all related topics… This fic explains the Phantom's dark past and leads right up to Chapter one of Darkness on The Battlefield; Enter the Phantom, another one of my stories. Parts of this fic may not make sense if you didn't read at least part of my other fic…@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
It was very misty. Tom, Robbie, and Steph could barely see. They just kept walking, flashlights forward. Suddenly the mist just stopped.
Robbie: What the…
Tom: The mist just stopped.
Steph: What's that?
In the distance there was a tall column of mist rising into the air.
Tom: Well that's weird…
Robbie: Let's go check it out.
Tom and Steph: Alright.
The three kids set off towards the rising mist. They didn't know that they were being followed. Tom thought that he felt someone watching them but disregarded the thought.
**Small Village*
An old man sat looking out a window. He didn't seem happy. A younger man walked up behind him.
Young: Excuse me, sir.
Old Man: What is it?
Young: The intruders are just children. Three of them. Approximately twelve years of age. They are armed.
Old Man: What do those children want?
Young: They're heading this way…
Old Man: We will wait
**Valley**
Robbie, Steph, and Tom continued walking until they sighted a village.
Tom: A village?
Robbie: I wonder who lives there.
Steph: Let's go find out.
The three kids entered the village. It seemed deserted. They took a few ore steps and were surrounded by many gun-toting people. A few rushed forward and grabbed them. One of them took Tom's gun. They the three kids up and carried them into a building.
The building appeared to be a prison of sorts. Robbie and Tom were thrown in one cell, while Steph was thrown in on across from theirs.
Robbie got up off the ground and rushed over to the bars. A soldier looked over.
Robbie: Let us out of here!
Steph: We didn't do anything!
Soldier: Quiet, brats!
The Soldier left the room and Robbie sank to the floor. Steph sat on the edge of her cell's bed. Tom just smiled.
Robbie: Why are you so calm, Tom?
Steph: You have some sort of plan, don't you?
Tom: Of course. *Holds up the Shock Glove* This is the Shock Glove. It's capable of generating a very powerful electrical current.
Robbie: And what are you going to do with it?
The Shock Glove began to spark and glow. Tom walked over to the lock and punched it. The bars instantly fell over. The ends were melted and the circuits were fried. Robbie's jaw fell open. Tom walked over to Steph's cell, and Steph took cover.
Tom: What are you doing?
Steph: You're going to blow the bars up. I'm hiding.
Tom: I'm not going to blow the bars up. I have a universal keycard.
Robbie: Where'd you get that?
Tom: I made it a long while ago. It will open any lock that requires a keycard.
Tom scanned the card through the lock and the cell opened. Steph walked out and an alarm sounded.
Steph: Not good.
Three armed guards rushed into the room and pointed their guns at the three escaping prisoners.
Steph: Tom, Do something!
Tom threw down a smoke bomb. The guards coughed as Tom, Robbie, and Steph ran past. They ran down a hallway, and then bust through a set of double-doors. On the other side were several gun-toting men and one old man.
Old Man: Impressive that you managed to escape.
Tom: Thanks but we want to know why you locked us up in the first place.
Old Man: Then follow me.
