Chapter 5: One Alliance against Another
(Sorry I took so long to update this. I've been busy and ideas come in my head sometimes.)
The next day, Zappondellyo was just meditating with Tech and Ace on his own hover mat. While that was going on, Lexi, Rev, Danger, Slam, Kye, Emerald, and Kaiguard were watching tv. The news was on again.
"And now, our top story today," The reporter on the television started. "The biggest worldwide crisis is still at a danger level of 100 percent. We've been informed that the two dragons, Kaiguard and Taiguard, have still not reuntied lovingly as brothers as they are. Nobody, but the Loonatics and Zappondellyo, the dragons' creator, knows how long this crisis is at stake. Stay tuned for more updates…"
"Well, goddamn it!" Danger complained, slamming his fist on the couch's cushion. "Why can't you two just make up and call it a day?"
"They weren't made to make simple decisions like this." Zappondellyo replied for Kaiguard as he still remained in his meditation state. "It takes careful calculations in their case."
"Then, what the hell are we supposed to do! Just let them keep fightin' until they finally realize how stupid they've been and make up!" Danger was up and out of his seat… and up in Zappondellyo's face. Zappondellyo still kept his eyes closed as he spoke.
"If Kaiguard keeps his blaming of his brother's cause of the fight, then yeah."
"But it was…" Kaiguard pleaded, but his creator interrupted.
"I know, but don't make it harder for me. The crisis rate is at a state of hazard right now and I fear that it might get worse if you two don't become what I made you two to be: loving brothers." He opened his eyes after that statement and looked over at the blue dragon Loonatic. "I just want both of you to be the most loving Loonatic brother team ever."
"I… never thought of it that way." Lexi said surprisingly. Zappondellyo nodded in agreement as he uncrossed his legs and slowly stood up.
"Yeah. I only made them to be a brotherly loving tea…" He was interrupted by an explosion from Tech's lab. Everybody turned towards it, having Kaiguard, Emerald, and Kye hold themselves up from the back of the couch. When the black smoke cleared, it revealed Taiguard and Pyrokyte, evil as ever. This shocked Zappondellyo, Kaiguard, Tech, Emerald, Kye, and Lexi. Everybody else was speechless, especially Ace.
"Taiguard!" Zappondellyo and Kaiguard screamed together.
"Pyrokyte!" Emerald screamed afterwards. Lexi, Kye, and the other Loonatics were prepared for any attacks.
"Yeah, that's right, bitches!" Taiguard yelled with evil in his purple eyes. "We're gonna kill every last of of ya'll… startin' with you and your friend, Kaiguard!"
"Oh, no!" Zappondellyo muttered in a whisper. "This can't be happening."
"Oh, it is. Pyrokyte, get your brother. I'll get mine."
"Sure thing, man." Pyrokyte replied as he lept for Emerald and tackled him in a roll toward a wall while Taiguard just fired his plasma blast at Kaiguard, who activated his laser-powered wings and jumped out the way, remaining in the air. Taiguard was about to jump and attack, but Lexi brain blasted him and he fell towards the ground. He sat up and looked at her with angry eyes while she got into her fighting stance with Rev and Slam with her. Kye decided to help Emerald while the other Loonatics prepared to protect Kaiguard, who was still in the air, thinking of a plan.
"Maybe… just maybe… while Taiguard's distracted…………" He was thinking in a whisper. He paused as he looked toward the damaged door to Tech's lab. The lab inside was still perfect and undamaged. Then, he looked down towards the action and back at the lab again with an 'I-came-up-with-an-idea!' smile before he flew in without nobody noticing.
As for Emerald, Pyrokyte, and Kye…
Emerald was struggling to keep his evil brother from biting him with his dripping fangs, but he was running out of energy. Kye came in just in time and forced a coil around Pyrokyte's side with a whip. He noticed and before he could do anything, he was snatched off of Emerald hard, making him land on the floor hard. While he was knocked out, Kye front-flipped to Emerald, who was struggling to get up, but couldn't. Kye helped him up on his feet and he felt refreshed again.
"Thanks." Emerald pleaded. "Who are you?"
"I'm KyeVarnyar XVT, but you can call me Kye." Kye replied. Before the meeting could continue, Pyrokyte hissed like an angry cat before he fired deadly acid from his mouth. Emerald and Kye avoided it just in time, making the acid singe the PSX 2000Z7 Interactive Game System down to a liquid state. The evil ferret snarled with anger before he forced deep red bat wings to form on his arms and he flew off towards Emerald and grabbed him by his extremely sharp claws and flew off into a ceiling vent. Kye went wide eyed and gasped as he saw this before he formed his artificial wings and flew up towards the vent, only to be hit by Taiguard's lasers hard on the back, making him fall to the couch first for a soft landing, then slide onto the floor and he was unconcious. Taiguard smiled as he looked over at the other knocked out Loonatics. He eyed Zappondellyo and noticed that he was about to get up. He just stood his ground, just in case.
"Tai…… guard," The creator groaned weakly. "You… don't know what… you're… getting yourself… in… into. Ugh!"
"Oh, hell yeah, I know! Pyrokyte and I are plannin' to take over this HQ and make it ours. That way, you can't rule me and I can make killin' your ass a mission… without that Zodavia bitch!" Taiguard screamed with fury as he walked up to his creator by his tentacles, making himself feel like he has the upper hand. Zappondellyo was enraged inside by this, but he held his cool on the outside. "So, uh… heh, heh… you are no use to me no more and so are your Loonatic friends and that son of a bitch, Kye." Right on cue, the ceiling vent Pyrokyte was in suddenly flew open, revealing him and an unconcious and bloody Emerald in his claws, then he was dropped and he landed on the floor next to Kye. Pyrokyte landed next to Taiguard and his wings went back in his body before he awaited his command. "Try putting that in your formula, bastard. Pyrokyte, throw this trash and shit of Loonatics outta here, including Kye and your bro!"
"Affirmative." Pyrokyte replied.
Meanwhile, in Tech's lab…
Kaiguard just finished the final solution of his experiment and calculated it all professionally. He was just about to add it into the chamber, but was distracted by a body tumbling down the staircase. He turned around and saw Lexi and Zappondellyo, having Zappondellyo holding on to Lexi's still unconcious body. Kaiguard was happy to see him, but then, he was unhappy that he didn't see his friend, Emerald.
"Zappondellyo! Lexi! What happened up there?" He asked. Zappondellyo strained to get up as he spoke.
"Your brother… ugh!... has gone insane!" He replied as he tried to revive Lexi. "He's plannin' to take over the Loonatics' hideout with Pyrokyte."
"But… what about Emerald? What happened to him?"
"Unfortunately, I can't really say. Pyrokyte just…… ripped him up like goddamn paper."
"Oh, shit…"
"Yeah, Kaiguardian. It's hard."
"It's a good thing I made this plan myself. Since Emerald's been nearly murdered and Taiguard and Pyrokyte are on a team, I figured I start making a partner for my alliance as well. It'll be one alliance against another."
"Are… are you serious?" Lexi groaned as she finally came to life. Kaiguard nodded as he resumed his work.
"Yeah. He'll be on the good side, have both powers of me and Taiguard, have a cool, smooth attitude, and he'll be a mix species."
"What's his color gonna be?"
"Lavender with neon green eyes."
"When is he gonna be unleashed?" Zappondellyo asked as he stood up with Lexi.
"In a few minutes. I need to make some final adjustments."
Lexi raised an eyebrow with astonishment as she looked over at Zappondellyo with a smile. He was speechless as he continue to stare at his creation.
"Well, well… heh, heh, heh! This is quite a surprising ability you added to this dragon. Did you know that he could make his own creations?" She asked slyly. Zappondellyo looked at her with pink cheeks on his face as he spoke.
"Well, I didn't know. I thought the laser power was enough, but I… guess I was… um… pretty damn daring." He replied. Lexi giggled as she walked up to him and placed her arms around his neck, scruffing the small tuft of fur on the back of his neck.
"I see. So, do you pray that this might work?"
"Yeah. I really hope I've really outdone myself more that I expected."
Later, back in the main lobby…
Pyrokyte just finished dumping the Loonatics out as he looked down at Slam falling with a smile on his face. He was soon startled by Taiguard's furious screaming.
"Pyrokyte, your stupid acid melted the video games!" He yelled. "You really have bad aimin'."
"Oh, shut the fuck up! At least I tried, didn't I?" Pyrokyte shot back as he walked up to him.
"Yeah, I guess…"
"But, I can bring it back to life."
"…really?"
"Allow me." After that was said, Pyrokyte placed his claws on the liquified game system and in seconds, it repaired itself back to the way it was before it was melted. Taiguard chuckled with happiness. "You're welcome, Taiguard."
"Thanks, man. Now, we can play some games! Ha, ha!"
Outside the headquarters…
"Ow,-man!" Rev groaned as he was coming to. "What-a-goddamn-hangover-for-a-dragon-and-his-friend!"
"We've tried our best, Loonatics." Ace pleaded as he was sitting on the sidewalk with his head down. "There's just no damn reasonin' wit 'em."
"I'll tell ya what though…" Danger started as he wiped his blood off his suit. "…if that Taiguard wasn't so strong, I would've killed him when I had the chance!"
"Gejoawoadnndeuadpowerful!" Slam complained, agreeing with Danger. Tech nodded in agreement as Kye was waking up.
"I agree, Slam." Tech complied as he sat up. "There seems to be just no way to defeat Taiguard and Pyrokyte. As long as they're a team, they're unstoppable."
"Aw, man!" Kye moaned. "It's all my fault."
"Why'd you say that, doc?" Ace asked.
"I should've paid more attention to helpin' ya'll with Taiguard when I had the chance! Emerald hasn't woken up yet."
"WHAT!" Everybody yelled as they came up to them. Kye tried and tried to revive the extremely bloddy Emerald, but it was no use!
"What am I gonna do? Emerald always comes up with the best revenge plans and he's gone!"
"Don't panic just yet. We just need to take him back to the shelter where Lexi adopted him." Tech calmly suggested as he picked up Emerald's body. "Rev, can you spot it from here?"
"Let's-see." Rev replied as he used his radar. He looked alll around until he finally found the shelter. "I've-found-it,-Tech! It's-over-there!"
"Let's go, but first… " Tech faced Kye, Ace, and Slam. "…you three have to find a way to get back into the HQ and contact Zodavia. As soon as she gets the news, she'll send me a blueprint of a special weapon that could defeat Taiguard and probably weaken his powers. Same for Pyrokyte. Can you handle it?"
"Sure, Tech. No problem." Ace replied. "I'm sure KyeVarnyar here is an expert of break-ins and invasions witout gettin' our asses caught."
"Whalhdsoijdsandoheouahdsja!" Slam agreed as he patted Kye on the head in agreement. "Kye help out."
"Yeah, I can invade places with out getting caught. I've done it to a children's shelter once… just to help out some hungry kids. I got out just in time when all the kids were fed and the boss came in. He hates me." Kye confessed. Ace chuckled as he gave a small pat on the lynx-wolf-rabbit mix's back.
"Well, that should be useful. Let's get goin', doc." He commanded.
Back in Tech's lab…
Kaiguard just added the mixed ingredients and closed the chamber's lid with Zappondellyo and Lexi watching from behind. Kaiguard turned towards them from over his shoulder with a sly smile as he placed a hand over the 'engage' button.
"Ya'll ready?" He asked them. Zappondellyo and Lexi nodded simultaneously as Kaiguard faced back at the chamber. "Let's hope your works more cut out than you expected, Zappondellyo." After that was said, he pressed the big button and the lightning began the process. All three of them took a step back as they watched the experiment develop. After almost 15 minutes, the experiment was complete and black smoke filled up the glass chamber. The three of them slowly approached the smoke-filled chamber until cleared into…
"A red panda-fox-dragon-rabbit mix?" Zappondellyo asked. This was indeed as he said it. A lavender PandRabbiDragonox that was wearing a sleeveless Loonatic jumpsuit, showing off his muscular, lavender arms. He also has the lavender colored triangle on his chest, the stripe at the waist, lavender on the bottom of his basketball sneakers with the same colored shoelaces, a long lavender dragon tail, and a tall, masculine figure. He had long rabbit ears, just like Zappondellyo, except they stopped at the ankles. He also had his neon green eyes, small blue dragon horns between the ears, and the face of a fox. His height was 6' 3" and he looked to be about 24. Zappondellyo and Lexi were impressed.
"Holy shit!" They both exclaimed together with shock. Kaiguard smiled with satisfaction.
"Like him, huh?" He smoothly asked. "This is Ryzakhanyo, the newest and, probably, the tallest Loonatic in the whole city. He's gonna be one hell of a knockout with Taiguard and Pyrokyte as his target."
"Damn." Zappondellyo muttered as Lexi's super hearing caught it and she giggled. "Uh…… can he talk?"
"Of course, but that's gonna have to wait. Now, Ryzakhanyo, listen up. I really wanna be reunited lovingly with my brother, Taiguard, but since he hates me, he's destined to kill me. I really don't wanna fight him, but since he wants to be this way with Emerald's evil brother, Pyrokyte, it's extremely obvious that he doesn't wanna rest until I'm gone. So, with us seperated, we've placed the entire planet of Acmetropolis in danger. If Taiguard's tentacles were to touch my laser-powered wings, that'll cause an explosion so catastrophic, that nobody will survive, not even the Loonatics themselves. You've gotta team up with me, Zappondellyo, Kye, and Lexi and help us stop those two evil bastards before they finally get to me. Do you accept this dangerous mission?"
"By any means to my strongest duties." Ryzakhanyo replied in an extremely deep male voice. Lexi cooed at it while Zappondellyo just whistled. "I'll be sure to change your brother's heart sooner that you might have thought possible."
"He uses big words. I like that." Lexi commented.
"Well, now that he's been created, let's put him into good use. In other words, let's give him a test drive to Taiguard and Pyrokyte." Zappondellyo suggested as he smiled at Ryzakhanyo, who smiled back.
Meanwhile, in the command center…
Ace, Slam, and Kye made it to the command room and Ace began to contact Zodavia at once. After a few types, Zodavia appeared in the center. This made Slam and Kye stand with precision.
"What is it, Ace?" She started. Ace showed an angry look on his face as he spoke.
"The situation's getting worser and worser by the second. Taiguard and Pyrokyte has taken over out HQ and there's nothing we can do to stop them." He replied. Zodavia nodded in understanding.
"This is indeed a worser situation. Here…" She paused as a rolled up poster appeared in the receiver chamber. "…give these blueprints to Tech right away and tell him to create this as soon as possible. Zodavia out." After that she disappeared. Kye was nearest to the chamber as he walked up to it and grabbed the blueprints.
"I've got them, Ace. Shall we head out?" Kye asked. While the discussion, Slam spotted a shadow walking out of Tech's lab. There were actually 4 shadows in one, having one being taller than the others. This puzzled the tasmanian devil as he walked closer to the door.
"Huh?" He asked himself as he opened the door to just an inch. He saw Kaiguard, Lexi, and Zappondellyo walking in front of Ryzakhanyo with determination. He was surprised to see Kaiguard, Lexi, and Zappondellyo, but was even more surprised to see Ryzakhanyo. He remained quiet as he watched the action that was about to unfold.
Outside the command center…
Taiguard and Pyrokyte were busy playing the game without them noticing the four Loonatics behind them… that is, until Pyrokyte's senstive ears caught the sounds of their footsteps. He paused the game and turned around fast. This alerted Taiguard as he turned around as well.
"What the hell are you three still doin' here? I thought Pyrokyte murdered ya'll!" Taiguard screamed. Kaiguard chuckled with humor.
"Heh, heh, heh, heh! You thought so damn wrong, bitch." He cooly replied. "I want you two to meet somebody…" After that was said, Lexi and Zappondellyo moved out of the way to reveal Ryzakhanyo in his hansome pose of his attitude. Taiguard was not impressed, but Pyrokyte, amazingly, was. "…I'd like for you to meet my newest creation: Ryzakhanyo, the tallest and most powerful Loonatic in Acmetropolis. So, now, it's impossible to defeat us."
"Impossible? HA! I think all of this bullshit is possible! As soon as I murder all of ya'll, you'll see once and for all that nobody can stand in the way of Taiguardian H9000!" After that small speech, Taiguard lept in front of Ryzakhanyo and took his position. Ryzakhanyo, however, didn't even show a single sign of fear, which impressed Pyrokyte even more.
"Goddamn." He muttered with amazement.
Back in the command center…
Ace and Kye ended up watching the action with Slam curiously. Ace was really shocked to see Ryzakhanyo not making a move, just standing like a statue. He was wondering who he is.
"Who the fuck is that?" He asked in a whisper. Slam shook his head, telling him that he doesn't know. Kye just shrugged his shoulders as he spoke.
"I have no idea, but damn! He looks like he could handle anything!" He replied as Slam nodded in agreement. He was too shocked to even make a roar.
Back in the main room…
"YAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Taiguard screamed as he whiplashed a tentacle at Ryzakhanyo, who didn't move much, except his right arm, which he used to have the tentacle coil around and then, fiercely jerked his arm out, forcing Taiguard's whole body to be easily tossed towards Danger's door. This knocked him out, but for a short time. He woke up after 2 minutes and got up on his tentacles with fury. "You bitch!"
"Bring it, motherfucker!" Ryzakhanyo cursed back as he remained in his statue stance with his right arm over his chest. This made Taiguard growl before he fired his plasma breath. Ryzakhanyo prepared for a punch as the plasma was approaching him. Then, when the plasma finally reached him, he punched the energy and it was reflected back towards Taiguard and he flipped out out the way this time as he landed on the lavender Loonatic's shoulders and attempted to choke him. Ryzakhanyo seemed like he sensed it way before he saw it coming and he grabbed Taiguard by his tentacles and swirled him around really fast, like a lasso, before he finally threw him towards the lab and he landed on to the rock hard metal head first, knocking him out for good. Pyrokyte didn't bother to move, for he knew that the results of this test drive were quite obvious. Lexi applauded along with Ace, Slam, and Kye in the command room. Zappondellyo just whistled again. Kaiguard humphed with satisfaction.
"Well, well, well. The results are in. My new alliance has been formed." He announced. "Taiguard will be sure to give up now."
Back in the command center…
Slam stopped clapping as he remained mouth-opened and speechless as Kye handed the blueprints to Ace.
"Holy shit, man! He's unstoppable alright." Kye exclaimed. "We better give these blueprints to Tech so he can help out that new guy, Ryzakhanyo. He seems cool."
"Yeah, doc!" Ace agreed as he took the blueprints. "Okay, Slam. Let's go."
"Uh-uh! Ryzakhanyo andeihoiwasonohquowjdja!" Slam moaned with sadness. Kye sighed as he activated his jetpack and grabbed the big tasmanian devil by his back. He began fussing and moaning the entire time.
"I guess Slam likes him." Kye and Ace said simultaneously and out of nowhere.
To be continued…
(Yep, I've made another Loonatic. He sounds cool, huh? In case you can't pronounce his name, here's how you pronounce it: Rise-a-khan-yo. Info about him will be in the forum. Look out for it.)
