Sorry this took so long. I've been working on my Maple Story fics. This story mixes a lot with my Ragnarok server stuff.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything except the story and the "black diamond hand".
The characters that are in the story are actually real players in Avalon/excalibur Ragnarok so the "Kaidoh" mentioned in this isn't from prince of tennis, it's a player in ragnarok. The landscapes in this story are also from Ragnarok. I don't think I'll be adding anymore theme songs since they never really match the story completley and I'm getting lazy :P.
"Where do we go from here Roy?"
Roy looked at the small piece of paper in his hand, "It says to go to Morroc city and keep going south until you hit snow."
"Snow?" Kirby sneered, "We're in the desert! What did Master hand right on that?"
Link took the map, "Well, there isn't even snow on this map."
Mewtwo looked at the piece of paper, "Roy…it says bones."
Marth sighed, "Master Hand is a nut case! He gave the navigation material to Roy."
Link took out a travel guide from his bag, "Morroc is pretty cool. Let's stay there for the night."
"But we could return to the H dorm if we start now." Marth complained.
"Shut it princess," Kirby turned to Link, "Let's get a move on."
Roy ran after them, "I want a big room!"
Mewtwo rolled his eyes, "Why am I in this dorm?" He chased after the others.
Marth stood there, completely isolated, "Princess…" He growled before he ran after them.
Link looked at the travel guide, "Morroc looked better in the picture."
Kirby kicked the wall, "This place is a dump."
Mewtwo looked at the walls, "This place must've been here for at least a millennium."
"Yeah," Link nodded, "What's that?"
"1000 years…" Mewtwo sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Why couldn't you have just said 1000 years then?" Link sneered.
Roy poked at a pile of eggs on the ground, "Whoa," When he poked the egg, it would move away from him on its own. Roy continued to poke it, "This is so fun!"
Marth pulled him back, "As your unofficial brother of fire emblem…"
"Don't you mean sister? Princess," Kirby sneered.
Marth's eye twitched but he maintained his calmness, "Roy," He pulled Roy away, "Stop poking it."
The eggs started to glow. Roy examined them closely, "Hey look. Something's coming out."
A yellow ant crawled out from the eggs. Marth screamed and jumped backward, "Get it away!" He wrapped his arms around Mewtwo's tail, "Kill it!"
Kirby raised his foot and kicked it away. He looked at Marth with a look that just said: What's wrong with you? "Why am I not surprised?"
Link looked at Marth, "What was that Marth?" He sighed deeply, "Never mind that. Let's just get to work and find this 'Black diamond' hand."
Kirby scratched his head, "Isn't black diamond that cheese?"
Mewtwo shrugged, "I guess so."
Marth slowly got up, "I'm afraid of bugs. Is there a problem?"
"Yes," Kirby replied, "You."
Roy looked around for more eggs, "What's that sound?"
There was the sound of gentle footsteps behind the buildings. Kirby took out a steyr TMP, "I'll handle it." He swallowed the steyr TMP and two guns appeared in his hand.
Mewtwo summoned his telekinesis, "Be ready for anything."
Marth drew his sword. Link took out his bow and arrow, "Roy, let's get ready to do our double sword smash." Silence followed what he said, "Roy?"
"Hi! What's your name?" Roy asked the figure in the shadows.
A silver haired man with a hairstyle that resembled Roy's stared at him. He had yellow horns on his head and he wore a red and black leather ensemble, "The name's Vlad." He stepped out from the shadows, "I thought I would be the only tomb robber here. I guess not. Have you met my pet Goldy?" A giant golden bug crawled out from the shadows, "He's the coolest!"
Marth screamed and attempted to run away. Link held onto his cape, "Calm down!"
Mewtwo cleared his throat and walked towards Vlad, "Do you know where we might find the artifact known as the black diamond hand?"
Vlad stroked his chin and knelt to Goldy, "Black diamond hand…isn't that the cheese?" He took out a round silver ball and fed it to Goldy, "I've never heard of it."
"Our master sent us to go look for it since it was stolen. Do you know anyone that could help us find it?"
Vlad stood up and cleared his hands, "Let's see. You could try asking professor Kaidoh. He usually knows all this stuff."
Roy knelt down to Goldy, "Who's a good golden bug?" He scratched its head, "You're so cute." He cooed to the bug.
Link sighed deeply and shook his head, "What's wrong with you Roy?" He looked at the hissing, angry bug, "You need glasses."
Kirby yawned and turned to Marth, "I think Marth lost it."
Marth curled up into a ball at the bottom of Link's feet.
Link looked at him, "This is called the fetal position. When the victim is affected by so much fear, they revert back to their childhood for safety."
Kirby nodded, "Sure." He looked down. I have no clue what that means.
Mewtwo nodded to Vlad, "Where will we find this Kaidoh you speak of?"
"He should be in the city or Morroc." Vlad pointed to a small path between cliffs, "You take that path there until you hit a pool of water. Then the city walls should be just in front."
Mewtwo looked around, "Isn't this Morroc?"
Vlad laughed and patted his shoulder, "Hell no. This is old Morroc. No one lives here anymore. Kaidoh is probably in the tavern."
"Thank you," Mewtwo replied, "Let's go."
Roy poked another egg, "We're leaving?"
Link pulled on Marth's cape, "Come on." He dragged Marth against the sand.
Vlad waved to them, "Good luck on your adventure." He held onto a pouch of money, "Suckers."
Link nodded, "This should be it." He stood in front of a small stone building, "Professor Kaidoh must be in there." He walked into the building.
A brute figure knocked Link to the ground, "No money, no entry." The figure seemed to be a silver haired girl.
Mewtwo touched his shoulder bag, "I brought some money with me." He shook the bag thoroughly, "I know I have some. Just wait a second…" Mewtwo kept sorting through his stuff, "Where is it?" He stopped and dropped the bag.
Vlad laughed and patted his shoulder, "Hell no. This is old Morroc. No one lives here anymore. Kaidoh is probably in the tavern."
"That damn thief…" Mewtwo growled, "I'll kill Vlad when I get my hands on him."
The girl blinked, "You know Vlad? He's a very close friend of mine. We knew each other since childhood. You can come in." She let Mewtwo inside.
Link smiled, "Uh…I'm with him."
Kirby nodded, "Same,"
The girl let both of them in. She stopped Roy and Marth, "Okay, no couples allowed in there."
"I'm not with him!" Marth barked, "And we're not gay!"
The girl looked closely at Marth, "Oh…you're a guy." She glanced at both of them, "Still, no entry. Pay me a total of 10000 zeny and you're in."
Marth looked through his pocket, "Uh…"
Roy took out a card, "Do you take Chapters gift cards?"
The girl laughed, "You're pretty funny. You're in." She let Roy in. She turned to Marth, "Pay up or take a hike."
Kirby looked around, "This place is filled with drunks and gamblers. This is my kind of place."
Link yawned, "They have a hotel upstairs. I'm going to take a little siesta."
Mewtwo looked around, "Excuse me," He walked up to a customer, "Do you know someone with the name Kaidoh?"
Kirby sat by the bartender, "Give me four bottles of Russian vodka."
Roy sat by a hold'em table. A man wearing an eye patch looked at him, "Who are you kid?"
"I'm Roy." Roy replied plainly, "Who are you?"
The group around him bellowed loudly. The man with the eye patch snickered, "I'm the greatest hold'em player here. Are you going to join the game?"
A red haired girl stared back at Mewtwo, "Professor Kaidoh is over there." She pointed over to a man with white haired tied up in a ponytail, "That one."
Mewtwo bowed, "Thank you," He ran over to the man, "You guys! I found professor Kaidoh!" The rest of the team was too preoccupied to listen to him, "Oh…"
The white haired man turned around, "What do you want?"
"I'm looking for something called the black diamond hand. Do you know where it is?" Mewtwo sat down next to him.
Kaidoh thought for a sec, "I've never heard of an artifact with such a name. Isn't black diamond the cheese?"
"It's like a black gloved hand that's kind of floating out of nowhere. It's about this big." Mewtwo moved his hands around, "Have you seen it?"
"I've never heard of it. I heard there's some activity in Anthell." Kaidoh replied, "Try going there. It looks like a hole in the ground with bones surrounding it."
"Oh, so that's what Master Hand was talking about." Mewtwo whispered to himself, "Thank you for your assistance." He bowed to Kaidoh and ran to Roy and Kirby, "Let's go."
Link ran down the stairs, "Do you have any money? They wouldn't let me buy a bed."
"There's no time. I know where to find the 'Black diamond hand'." Mewtwo replied.
Roy held up a huge bag of money, "I have some. I won all of it when I played hold'em."
Kirby drank down the last of his vodka, "You know how to play hold'em?"
"No," Roy replied, "I just kept saying 'All in' and I won."
Link rolled his eyes, "Let's just go."
Marth rolled on the ground, "Get back here!" He chased a bouncing green blob with a backpack on. He grabbed it, "Got it!" Green slime splattered onto his body, "I don't know if I should scream or cry." Marth stood up, "Let me in."
The girl took the green blob, "You took longer than most people." She looked at his ripped and muddy clothes. Green slime was splattered all over his body, "Most people usually aren't as messed up as you. Go in,"
Marth smiled and opened the door. Kirby pushed the door into Marth and he fell over, "We're leaving."
"What?" Marth shouted, "But I—She—what?"
"You heard the man." Link replied, "We are leaving."
The green blob jumped away again. The girl rolled her eyes and stared at it. Roy dropped the bag of money on the ground, "I'll get it!" He waved his hands, "Come back. I'll give you some money."
The green blob turned around and looked at him. Roy gave him a gold coin, "Thanks for the money." The green blob replied.
"It can talk?" Link asked.
The girl picked up the green blob again, "Yeah. I thought everyone knew that."
Marth sighed deeply, "Damn that. Where are we going Mewtwo?"
Mewtwo smiled, "Just follow me." Mewtwo floated into the desert, "You're not going to like what I'm going to say Marth…"
After a long walk, they reached the cave with bones around it. They all entered it slowly.
Marth twitched and froze in his spot, "It's an ant hill?"
I think I know what you're thinking. What the hell does: Roy took out a card, "Do you take Chapters gift cards?" mean? My friend tried to "bribe" the teacher with a Chapters gift card so he could pass the test. I felt like I had to use it. Please R & R
