Somewhere in Nevada

After ransacking multiple weapons shops, some Nevadian, some Lugenican Hank began his journey to this so-called Capital of Lugenica. After around a day of travel, witnessing interesting locations that were a mix of both Nevada and the new world, he finally reached the capital city.

"I'm starting to get tired of this Tolkien shit," Hank muttered, looking at the large walls that surrounded the city... on the top of the walls, he noticed two agents along with two knights. "Heh, the Sheriff has got to be here..."

Hank quickly snuck around to one of the corners of the walls where he saw an agent talking to a knight, "And this is called a cigarette, you smoke it and feel better." The agent said to the intrigued knight.

The knight then proceeded to grab a lit stick and inhale the smoke. He was surprised at how bad it tasted and soon he had smoked another one. "This stuff does not taste very good, yet it's so addicting... I wonder what it is made of?"

The agent lit his own cigarette and replied, "It's a combination of tobacco and chemicals. It tastes terrible but it can help ease your nerves and feel good. Think of it as a better version of those pipes some people use."

The knight then inhaled again, but this time with more vigor. "That's amazing! This feels so good!?" Suddenly Hank pulled out a Glock with a silencer on it and shot the Knights skull before pulling out a wire and strangling the Agent. Killing them both... then Hank began to climb up the city wall, using the shadows to cover his ascent. He reached the top and saw an agent watching over the area... so he snuck up behind him and strangled him quietly, Hank finally got to have a good look at the strange city of Lugenica.

There were buildings that looked like castles and others that resembled ancient ruins, there were even houses that looked like mansions. All the roads and streets were paved with stone and covered with gravel. The streets themselves seemed to be made of cobblestone and brick, but these bricks were a dark grey color.

"You can't hide for me forever!" Hank thought to himself continuing his hunt for the Sheriff. He continued sneaking through the Capital, eventually making his way to the Palace, which was filled with a mixture of Knights and Agents. He spotted a group of agents playing cards and drinking in the middle of the room, so naturally, he burst in and began his assault on the card players.

One of the agents immediately grabbed his gun and tried to shoot Hank, but the gun was loaded with blanks and went off in the agent's hand. Hank took advantage of the distraction and stabbed him in the neck with a knife. "What the hell are you doing?!" Another agent shouted, pointing his pistol at Hank, but he wasn't fast enough and Hank killed him with his bare hands.

After finishing off the agents, Hank heard footsteps coming from outside the door. As several knights filled the room, Hank had a trick up his sleeves, or coat in this case as he pulled out two fully loaded Uzi's and fired them towards the knights. They were all hit with the full force of the bullets and fell dead. Hank continued his way to the next room, where he came across several fully prepared agents who started to upon fire... but Hank simply jumped and flipped in the air and activated his bullet-time ability, dodging every single bullet fired at him.

Before firing at the Agents, every bullet hitting its mark, Hank used his bullet-time ability to avoid them and continue on. In one of the rooms, he came across an Agent trying to sneak away from him. Finally, Hank entered the throne room, which had the King of Lugenica and several nobles... but no Sheriff. Annoyed Hank started taking his anger out on the Nobles and their guards, killing each and every one of them with extreme prejudice. Finally, all that was left was the King "WHERE IS THE SHERIFF!" Hank screamed while pressing his gun into the King's head. While trying to keep a straight face, on the inside he feels nothing but fear. The King tried to explain "I-I don't know... l-last time I s-saw him he was introducing m-me to the a-agents..." Hank started to strangle the King in an attempt to calm his own nerves. He started to lift the King in the air with his strength alone.

*snap*

Hank exhaled in ecstasy upon hearing the King shut up, before throwing him out the window.

"ENOUGH OF THIS HANK!" The familiar voice of Jebus shouted... and suddenly all of the dead nobles in the room got revived as zombies... Jebus then teleported into the room and in his anger caused the entire roof to blow off with his telekinesis. Before landing on the floor

Hank quickly attempted to shoot at Jebus, who in return created a miniature forcefield that caught the bullets. Then Hank put down his guns and rushed at Jebus engaging in a hand-to-hand combat fight.

Jebus was surprised at how fast Hank moved and was astonished at his strength and agility. However, despite being faster and stronger, Hank was unable to land any hits on Jebus and was easily dodged. Then Jebus grabbed and threw Hank a short distance, giving him enough time to summon a sword out of thin air. Jebus then proceeded to slash at Hank with his sword, but Hank quickly jumped out of the tower and gazed at a red light glowing in the distance, "So this is improbability huh." He thought to himself as Jebus approached behind him sword in hand... Hank turned around and pulled out two more Uzi's from his belt and fired at Jebus.

Jebus teleported in front of Hank and caught the bullets with his forcefield... but using this opportunity of distraction Hank quickly leaped behind Jebus and fired more. While Hank did get cut by Jebus's blade he was still close enough to start punching him in the face several times and throw him back towards the wall. Jebus quickly grabbed his sword and got up as Hank got close, and the two engaged in fierce melee combat. And after a heavy punch by Hank that knocked Jebus back several feet, Hank pulled out two Glocks and... once more and started to open fire on Jebus, who using his telekinesis picked up one of his zombies to use as a meat shield.

And after destroying the zombie's head completely Jebus generated a powerful blast of white lightning that knocked Hank off the castle.

Hank landed outside the window on top of a tower as Jebus pursued him... however Hank managed to get the upper hand as when Jebus activated his forcefield Hank managed to successfully get a shoot on him. Then the zombie nobles and agents came down and attempted to attack Hank, but he activated his bullet-time and leaped into the air dodging all their attacks and landing every shot he has onto every one of them.

Next, Jebus got back up, giving Hank a very annoyed face, Hank attempted to fire his Glocks at Jebus... but noticed that he was out of ammo, so he flipped the duel guns over to use as clubs and got into a battle stance. After a few seconds of fighting Hank managed to get close enough to start beating Jebus with his empty guns... but Jebus managed to get a head butt in and successfully disarmed one of Hanks's guns, causing Hank to drop it. Then Jebus punched Hank hard in the stomach and sent him flying through the air.

Hank quickly recovered and flipped off of the tower... below him was several agents which Hank used to cushion his fall, causing one of the agents to die before he started beating the second one to death, the third one started taking out his rifle, but Hank threw his gun so hard at him that it actually pierced his heart and killed him instantly. Then Hank used his time to pick up their weapons before more agents started to come at him, but he managed to kill them all with his bare hands.

But then something strange happened... Hank noticed some white energy sparking from the ground... and suddenly out from the earth sprouted a stop sign... what was also weird was text appeared in thin air that said "Warning: DANGER" "What the?" Hank thought before the stop sign suddenly moved across the ground far away creating a small fissure as it went, and it eventually knocked into an agent killing him instantly before stopping. While Hank killed the second agent.

Suddenly two green hands came out of the ground, one grabbed the stop sign while the other hoisted itself up revealing a familiar masked figure "Hi Haaaaank!" Tricky said while red flashing text appeared in thin air saying "OMFG CLOWN!"

But Hank suddenly shot the clown knocking him into the fissure while saying "Why won't that god damn clown stay dead. Suddenly more agents and knights started to show up, some came from behind Hank while others climbed out of the small fissure. So Hank started slaughtering more, shooting one in the head, and impaling another with a club, he disarmed a few and when another agent came Hank threw him in the air and activated bullet time so he could shoot him down while airborne. But when the bullet time stopped Hank noticed that there were more agents coming out at him from behind while Jebus was approaching him getting ready to strike. After a couple of seconds, they were mere feet away from each other until something improbable happened... it was as if time itself froze and reality broke again... the air was filled with the deafening sound of static while everything started Glitching out until text started flashing around the area, the text said "ERROR: Reality Compromised, The Clown has been Engaged."

Tricky has activated his full power!

Suddenly Tricky burst from the ground, between Hank and Jebus, his whole body twitching, he pointed his stop sign at Hank, before Jebus tried to sneak up behind the clown with his sword, but the Undead jester simply turned around and held him up with one hand before punching him while Hank tried to shoot him, but suddenly Tricky jumped at speeds hard to perceive leading to Hank hitting Jebus instead, suddenly Tricky landed behind Hank and delivered a flurry of punches knocking Hank through the air "ORAORAORA HAHA!" He said as he did so. Then as Hank landed, tricky delivered another flurry on him... then the psychotic clown went to grab his stop sign as Hank picked up his machine gun... but before he could fire the Clown knocked the gun out of his hand with his stop sign than he wound his stop sign back and hit Hank with it sending him flying "FOOOUUUUR!" The clown shouted before turning to Jebus and picking him up.

Meanwhile, the familiar face of Minerva was running into a clearing where she saw a strange-looking man, he had white skin and dreary eyes, and he also had very strange jester-like clothing "HECTOR!" Minerva shouted getting the man's attention, "I need your help!" The man sighed and in a depressed voice said "What do you waaaaant Minervaaa" Minerva replied "I need your help... I learned about who the man was who caused this horrible event... I've already warned the others about him, but they refused to do anything unless he threatened them... and now I can't convince them anymore." Hector looked at her and sighed again, "Minervaaa I'm quite busy..." He said while looking towards the forest,

Unbeknownst to Minerva, Hector was currently out to actually try and kill Echidna after learning that she is attempting to become immortal. But suddenly before they could continue the conversation about 50 meters away Hank suddenly landed with a thud, and slowly started to get up "That god damn Clown!" He exclaimed angrily suddenly a car appeared next to Hank, pulling up in it were two people Hank was somewhat familiar with, one of the men was muscular and had his lower lip over his upper, while the other was a bit shorter, these two were Sanford and Deimos.

Sanford spoke up first "Hank! You might need this!" He said while tossing a sword and gun to Hank before the two attempted to drive away... until a building suddenly appeared filled with partying grunts landed on top of them.

Finally Tricky appeared landing in front of Hank... and Minerva let out a gasp at the sight as Tricky held up the decapitated upper half of Jebus's head while the text "DANGER: Player two ELIMINATED" Flashed in the air, "Now it's your turn Haaaaank!" Tricky then began laughing maniacally at Hank.

Hank grimaced and took the weapons Sanford and Deimos gave him, and he then charged forward at Tricky, and with his right hand, he swung down with all his strength but was deflected by Tricky's stop sign. The two began to fight while Minerva simply decided to watch, but was still shocked at what was happening. After several ferocious seconds of clashing and fighting, Tricky managed to impale Hank with his stop sign... only for Hank to take the opportunity to slash the top half of the Clown's head off. As the clown's body dropped to the floor Hank dislodged himself from the stop sign. But suddenly with the deafening sound of static and a flash of red Tricky was standing up again, and with his left hand grabbed Hank by the neck. Hank looked surprised as Tricky's eyes glowed a bright crimson.

The Undead Clown looked at Hank in the eyes and gave him a toothy smile saying "HAHAHA YOU DO NOT KILL CLOWN! CLOWN KILLS YOU!" And with that he proceeded to rip Hanks head clean off and began to bash it against Hanks body, completely destroying the lower Jaw. Then the Clown turned to Minerva and Hector and simply laughed "HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!"

Hector stepped forward and sighed "Looksss like I'll have to teach this Jester a Lessooon..."
