Well, this is the fifteenth of the fifteenth chapters I was aiming for. However, I'm still going to go berserk before the 28th, and go as fast as I did on the 20th (6 chapters) as soon as uploading is available again…
A World Deep in DisorderChapter Thirty-Two: The unlucky six…?
DISCLAIMER: Refer to chapter nine's disclaimer.
Last Time: Not even gonna bother. You know what happened.
Badge Saga Chapter V:
Kirth grumbled. "You know… I'm not sure if I really like this new… power points system you've come up with Rjis…" He said. "Why? Everyone under you seems to have high totals, and you yourself actually break the meter." Rjis, third strongest of the unlucky thirteen said. "Yeah… but that's what simply sensing one's powers is for. Putting it into a numerical total makes battles seem like some pen and paper game!" Kirth exclaimed. "I see… but please, allow it for at least a little while…" Rjis said. Kirth sighed. "Fine… just go away." He then added.
"Just one more thing…" Rjis said. "What is it…?" An annoyed Kirth asked. "Well… we really aren't the unlucky thirteen anymore…ever since that desert kid took out a lot of the unlucky thirteen even Aivos, we're no longer thirteen… the recent loss of Merig makes us now six." Rjis explained. Kirth then began grumbling something like: "Damn unluckies… they're supposed to be powerful, but here they are getting slain by children…"
"Well, whatever, six is unlucky right? Now go. You annoy me." Kirth sighed, waving Rjis off. Rjis knew better than to test Kirth's temper, hence the power number he got. So, Rjis simply left.
…Elsewhere…
Badge still needed to gain more power. So how was he going to seek it? He decided to take on the unlucky thirteen. Next up on the list was Irel, second weakest of the unlucky thirteen, and the twentieth strongest of the rogues. He traced Irel to an underground lab.
Badge sighed. This underground lab was a pain in the ass to find, but it was easy to get through. He bet that Irel was behind this door. He entered the code that seemed to work on each door that the unluckies used. 2,1,1,3,5,1,3. However, this time, an alarm went off, and a cage fell around Badge. The door then opened, and out stepped an extremely short man with short brown hair, and black eyes. He wore a brown cloak. "Fwahahahahahhaha! Fool! You fell into my trap!" He exclaimed.
"And you must be Irel, shorty." Badge said. "Quiet, you! There is no hope of escape! Those bars don't conduct electricity, and they're solid reinforced steel! A wooden hammer cannot break through it!" Irel laughed. "Oh really?" Badge asked, transforming into his Ice climber form. He froze the bars with an ice shot, and then took out his hammer, which was now a super hammer, and smashed through the icy bars. "Oh, damn." Irel moaned.
"You're screwed now." Badge said, rushing at Irel. "Ha! You aren't even in your best form, and you'll find that I'll a lot stronger than that Merig fellow." Irel exclaimed, transforming into his Young Link form, who's height suited him well. It was Irel in a brown tunic, with the brown hair and black eyes that he usually had. He had a hero's shield, and the razor sword. The razor sword clashed with the super hammer.
It was a complete deadlock. Both weapons were clashed, and neither side was winning. However, Irel pulled a dirty move, and smashed his metal shield into badge's jaw. Badge however, in his counterattack, parried Irel's blade, and smashed him clean in the face with his hammer. "…Ow." Irel stated. Being as short as he was, it was like he was a stake that needed to be hammered into the ground. Irel then did something unexpected. He threw his sword at Badge. Yes, you heard me correctly. He threw the razor sword across the room. At Badge. Not expecting the blow, the sword embedded itself into Badge's arm. The blood began to flow, and Badge grasped his wound. His hammer arm was now impaired. Painfully wrenching the razor sword out of his arm, Badge threw it back at Irel. Though the blade was on a crash course for Irel's face, Irel used his shield to block the blade, and then picked it back up.
"Fool! I now have my weapon back!" Irel yelled. "Damn…" Badge muttered. He then rushed forward with his super hammer. Despite having pains in his arm every time he swung, he held through. He could tell that Irel was about to play dirty, and use his shield as a weapon, again. It was then that Badge remembered something. He took the hammer that his sister usually used as a memento for the trip. Though reluctant, he now had to use it for combat, despite the fact that it was still a standard wooden hammer.
So, Badge pulled out his sister's hammer with his other hand, and blocked the shield. Though it caused much pain in his arm, Badge applied more force with his super hammer, and redirected the blade to the ground. As his sister's hammer was holding the shield, Badge took a hefty swing, causing even more pain in his arm, and smashed through the shield with his super hammer. Now, all Irel had was a sword… and Badge was dual-wielding hammers. As Irel swung his blade upwards, it was blocked by the wooden hammer, leaving Irel defenseless. With a mighty swing of his super hammer, he smashed Irel's face in.
With Irel dead, Badge untransformed, and clutched his arm in pain. It was bleeding profusely. However, he prepared ahead, and wrapped a bandage tightly around his arm. He then noticed another room labeled 6-6-6
Inside, was again, a huge computer that took up most of the room. "Welcome, I am the U-66666666. Please select what info of the unlucky six you would like." The mechanized voice of the computer said as it turned on upon Badge's entrance. "Unlucky six?" Badge asked aloud. The computer recognized his question and replied to it. "The unlucky six has been renamed as only its 12th, 10th, 5th, 4th, 3rd, and 1st strongest members remain. In addition to that the 5th and 4th strongest have gone missing a little while ago, so we cannot verify them as dead or alive. Also, I cannot verify Irel's power signal… so now only five, or three, depending on 4th and 5th's survival, remain. You not being Irel means that I must initiate the self-destruct program…" The computer said. "Not again…" Badge groaned, running out of the room and getting out of the underground lab, as the ground above it caved in. Badge got out safely just as the remainder of the lab caved in.
"I see… now I know what I must do to really test my power…" Badge began. "…I'm going to take on both the 10th and the 3rd by myself!" He then added.
End of Chapter
I've got nothing to say, except for the fact that I've now fulfilled my promise. But updating is fun, so I'm going to keep on going rapid-fire until the 28th. Look for more chapters constantly! Putting this on alerts if you read this far will definitely help!
Until Next Chapter,
