Hey there! Think it took me long enough to update? Sorry, but think of it
this way, Merry Christmas to you from me! Here goes a really important
chapter, so pay careful attention!
Chapter Whatever, 'cause I can't remember right now!
"Are the preperations ready?" a deep, gruff voice sounded from the shadows of a forest.
"Yes sir, everything is ready and waiting for your commands, sir." A young man, no older than 25, with dark brown hair saluted, his gloved hand reaching his forhead in a sign of respect.
"Good, good. How are the troops? High spirits I presume, what with all the action just beginning." A smile slowly spread across the tanned face, the only part of his face that wasn't in shadow.
A bright, full moon shone down upon the entire scene, giving an erie look to it. The young man was dressed in a very dark green suit, with white gloved hands. A small badge glistened in the pale moonlight. The other man, not even to be seen unless you knew he was there, and even then it was hard to distinguish him from the shadows.
"The troops are excited, as you said. A few in particular though, seems they have some bones to pick with certain teams. I hope they get the chances..." The young officer replied.
"If all is well, than I shall be on my way, for I have a few matters of business to take care of. I'll be back to give the orders and see the operation through in a week. Have the teams registered, and make sure that they have battled enough to at least be in Class S, understand?"
"Yes sir!" Again, the gloved hand flew to the young man's forehead.
"See you in a week!" And with that, the mysterious shadowed man leaped into the air, high enough to land in his Zoid's cockpit, a modified Lightning Saix. Completely black, like pitch, the young man jumped to hear it roar, yet not see it. And like a shadow, the man and the Zoid disapeared into the night.
"Good bye sir."

"HA! Beat you again!"
"WHAT?! That's seven games in a row! Impossible! Alex, you just HAVE to be stacking the deck! I'm gonna run out of cookies soon!"
"Calm down, Cyrus; and I am NOT stacking the deck! I just have the luck, besides, I must want those cookies a WHOLE lot more than you do."
"It has nothing to do with want! And you are SO stacking the deck!"
Krystal walked into the team's game room, where Cyrus and Alex were playing poker, while Reigen and Arcane just sat, watched, and laughed their heads off. The team all stopped and looked a Krystal, surprised to see a smile on her face. The battle earlier today had really boosted the whole team's confidence in Krystal. Tommorow, they were going to watch as she shredded that other guy to pieces.
"We have another battle coming up. It seems that the Slicers and Slashers Teams have both challenged us. Their new, only in Class A, but with both teams offering twice the prize money each, that's 4 times the normal amount of cash we haul in!" Krystal exclaimed.
"And? What time is it at? And when? And who will be battling on the team?" Reigan asked.
"Oh yeah. It's on Monday, and noon, so the conditions will be against our airial Zoids, so we'll be using the ground, and the terrain to our advantage. It's a desert area, so we don't want black Zoids on the field. All of you will be fighting, they have six on each team. That's twelve Zoids vs us, maybe six people if this new guy joins. You never know. So I will be training each and everyone of you with your Zoids extra hard. On Monday, quality will have to be what matters, not quantity. Understand?"
The whole team nodded their heads yes, they did understand.
"Are we prepared?" Krystal asked.
"YAH!" the team yelled, getting pumped for the battle.
"Good. Now the sooner you guys hit the sack, the better."
"Come on! Krystal, you aren't my mom." Alex said, exaspersted.
"You're right. N, I'm not your mom, but I am your leader, and I suggest you follow my advise, or I'll tell the whole team what you sing everyday in the shower." Krystal narrowed her eyes shrewdly at Alex.
Alex's eyes shot wide open, and they became patially scared in a way. "Y- you wouldn't, would you?"
"Don't put it past me."
Alex scrambled out of the room as fast as he could, and then you could hear his sink going; or at least, Krystal could.
"I suggest you guys get a move on."
"Yes ma'am!" the whole team shot out of the room like scared mice, each scared as to what Krystal might say.
"That worked better than I thought it would." Krystal yawned, and rode the now empty elevator to her room, and fell down on her bed, asleep before she ever hit the pillows.
Hey, the next chappy'll be better, but I just thought I'd update for Christmas! Happy Holidays!
