Aurthors Note: Thanks for the reviews Nightmaster000, Heracelio, and rpd15000. Really helps to keep writing. Hope you like chapter three.
The sky was still very dark, not a bird, not a squirrel, not even a gleam of nature. Kimiko sighed to herself before walking into a cave. She then went through a concealed door on the ground and climbed down on the ladder. It was a long way down until she finally saw light. As she hopped down, she was glad to see that this part of the world was still alive. The little underground city was full of life, away from Spicers Armies. She immediately began walking through the little city, embracing the people as they passed by. The mood was very cheerful for people were making the most of it. War had done many things to her life. She rushed through the crowds seeing people along the way simile, little kids playing together. For a moment she almost forgot about the devastation above the ground. She continued running until she saw Raimundo. He was was sitting in a circle with kids surrounding him. They were meditating. He finally opened his eyes with a simile before clapping his hands. The kids immediately shot their eyes open with the exception of a few who were asleep but Raimundo did not disturb them. It was peaceful for the meantime for Jacks "Bomber-Bots" would make repeated air strikes from above trying to flush them out. There was concern was how long underground would remain stable. It was the reason for the cheerful mood. People make the most of it since the roof could come down, collapsing down at any moment killing you.
As Kimiko approached Rai, they kissed each other. Yes when a end of the world thing happens, friends can sometimes become closer.
"You really knew to sleep Rai" said Kimiko
"Oh I'm sure we all wish that. But it's rather hard when the room is shaking from above ha" he chuckled a bit trying to lighten the mood.
A long pause followed before Rai spoke up once more.
"Were waiting for you out back" he said motioning for her to come along.
Kimiko suddenly remembered. Yes just seconds ago she was absorbed in the happy atmosphere but now she remembered who was waiting for her. She made her way to a door(More like a hand carved entrance with loosely wooden planks tied together). As she entered Rai was at the head of a table filled with two others. When Jack had smashed the worlds armies, many started to form groups of resistance refusing to waver, but is wasn't enough. Eventually the monks went up against Spicers armies and let their power be known. Thousands of people were awed with their powers. Which was strange because the monks never really tried to hide there powers. Infact they traveled to many locations openly using their elements or Shen Gon Wu. Guess nobody noticed that giant robot in New York City playing basketball. Or that time when those Zombie like employees broke into every store in Tokyo. Or that time when Chase Young split the Earth in two. It was strange how the world worked and how little people noticed this.
The monks, along with other groups of resistance decided to combine before they could be wiped out. Standing to the left of Kimiko was Colonel Akio of the Japanese Self-Defense Force, or what remained of it. He was unable to repeal the invasion of Japan, even with Kimikos help. He was forced to flee to China along with the remnants of his men. Raimundo was in charge of the Asian resistance. Brazil had unfortunately been wiped out by Spicers Drill-Bots. South America didn't even existence anymore. The once beautiful Amazon was transformed into a factory where the Amazon River literally became the River of Acid. The blue sky was thick and black. Raimundo never really wanted to talk about it.
"So do we have enough power?" asked Raimundo his head turning to Hideaki, a famous professor in Computer and Engineering.
"Well if Spicer is the kind of guy you say he is, he'll overlook this if we're caught. But I don't think he'll notice we're using his power." the professor proceeded to turn to a small screen pushing in a few buttons.
An even bigger screen lit up in front of them, the dirt covered most of it, and it's age was starting to show. Omi then appeared on the screen. His cheerful attitude had been replaced with a very serious one. Snitches could be seen on his forehead. Being trustworthy and at times to helpful, it had nearly killed him when he had tried to save so many people. Raimundo could remember so clearly when Spicers army had gotten rid of the cheerful(and sometimes stupid) Omi he knew.
...
"Hell what are those"
"Just keep firing, their coming closer"
"Shit we just lost contact with General Chang-Ki"
"Both of you shut up!"
"THEY BROKE THROUGH-AAHAHAHHAHAHA"
Vlad was watching the Chinese Aemy crumble. The new "Flamer-Bots" had proven a hugh success against the bunkered enemies.
"Sir, you have a call" said a Jack-Bot holding out a phone
"Ugh, what is it Tubbe"
"It's TUBBIMURA" he yelled
"Whatever, what is your position"
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK. The dam Chinese have me surrounded"
"Ugh, where are you"
"Puff in the mountains"
"Alright I'll come save your fat ass since you can't move it"
"Why you-"
Vlad hanged up chuckling to himself but now he had to rescue him. He looked over the area a saw a little village. Ah yes he remembered it was the Xiaolin Temple but was currently being used as a refugee camp. He looked around, the last of Chinese Army here had been killed off.
"Orders sir" said the Jack-Bot
"Invade the temple, it's the quickest route to rescue Tubbe...and anyone who's in the temple...kill them, all of them"
"Yes sir" said the Jack-Bot saluting before heading off.
Vlad motioned his hands towards the temple while the Hundreds of thousands of Jack-Bots flew their.
(In the temple moments earlier)
"Master Fung, Master Fung, Master Fung" yelled Omi trying to get through the crowd. The people were scared. Many had lost their loved ones on the Coastline. Their was screaming, shouting, and fighting through the entire temple. Omi went up to a solider.
"Excuse sir, do you know where Master Fung is?"
The soldier looked down at him. In his hand he was clutching a radio while his face looked like it had tears. He then pulled out a pistol before shooting himself in the head. It was followed by a massive wave of screams of panicking. Suddenly the temple shook and the screams grew louder. The roof burst opened and a swam of Jack-Bots entered. They immediately began shooting peopled down with their chest guns while some were slicing people up with their claws.
"Kill all who oppose Jack Spicer, Ruler of the World" said one of them
Omi face grew sick before he threw up. Never before had he seen this level of violence. A giant explosion came knocking everyone down. The remaining soldiers were fighting back thou it was futile.
"Omi...Omi...OMI!" a voice yelled
He turned to see Raimundo
"Raimundo, everyone is...is...is"
"I know dude, we gotta get out of here."
The duo started to run but Omi got more distracted with people dying everywhere. A women then clutched his leg.
"Young monk please help me." said the women who had an arm blown off and half her face burnt. Her legs had been broken, and her sanity was all gone
"You see young monk, this is my child" she said pulling it out
Omi just stood their his face speaking of horror. Another arm grabbed him.
"COME ON DUDE WE HAVE TO GO"
"Wait what about Master Fung" asked a panicked Omi
As they ran more screams erupted from the front door as the Drill-Bots burst in slicing through everyone in their path. Omi then spotted Master Fung who was clutching his chest, blood seeping through.
"Master Fung!?" yelled Omi a little happy to see him through he was a bit far.
Master Fung gave off a grin ignoring the pain in that instant
"Young Monk..." he muttered reaching his hand out before a Drill-Bot came behind him and drilled through his body breaking it into two pieces before it tumbled downward.
"MASTER FUNG!" yelled Omi now crying while Raimundo was using his wind element to lift them above the massacre taking place. As they flew Omi could see the massive piles of the dead. Small groups held their hands up hoping to live only to be shot down instantly. Omi didn't say anything while he and Raimundo flew away.
Vlad appeared in the Temple.
"Ugh, get this mess cleaned up before it smells"
"Yes Sir"
Vlad looked around hoping to see the dead monks but to no avail. It didn't surprise him. Two monks had been off helping others while two had stayed here to help out. He saw many of the elder monks lying dead along with a few soldiers.
"Inform Spicer that China has almost fallen to us and that I have almost manage to secure General Tubbe"
"Yes sir"
Vlad looked over the temple once more before heading outside.
...
"Raimundo?"
"Huh"
"Are you paying attention" asked Omi
"Um, yea, continue" said Rai who had snapped out of it
"Anyways, we have been forced under ground. Spicers bombers are killing us out here. My friends, I'm not sure how long I can hold out. China is almost lost, and were losing ground day by day. Even with my element, I am growing to tired to keep fighting"
"Omi, don't worry, we'll figure out a way" said Kimiko although a voice of unsureness came over her
"I-"
The screen then went blank followed by the room rocking
"It seems Spicers Bombers are making another round, we've lost communication" said Hideaki
"DAM IT" yelled Raimundo hitting his fist on the table
"Master Bailey has been unable to break the blockade on the United States Westcoast along with Canada and Mexico." said Akio pointing to the screen.
The map showed the who controlled what. Spider had control over all of Europe, half of Africa, and most of Asia. Russia manage to form its own resistance in Siberia and the Ural mountains but was taking a beating against the Jack-Bots. Thankfully North America survived conquest due to Robo-Jacks misfit but not the devastation it had suffered. Sadly South America do not have the same faith. Clay managed to stop Spicer in Mexico but then came the question of how long?
"Do you think Russia will help us" asked Kimiko
"Chameleon-Bots had manage to infiltrate the Russian Resistance. The only reason their still around is their waiting for a call from us so they can track us considering they don't know where our base is. Then both Asian Resistances would die. Ever heard of killing two birds with one stone" said Hideaki
"But we're losing ground. Soon Spicer will overrun us. Food is becoming harder to find. Spicer won't get to us, starvation will" said Kimiko
"I'm amazed he actually hasn't been able to find us considering we're so close to his base of operations" said Hideaki before chuckling to himself.
"My men can raid him again to get food and water-"
"Akio after last time I can't let that happen" said Rai
"But sir if we don't get some source of food, we will starve" said a stern Akio
"What to do?" thought Rai. Omi was trapped, Clay was in a blockade. And despite America able to survive, eventually they would fall. And then what? Flee to Canada? That's what Europe did. People kept fleeing up North till they couldn't run anymore. What to do? What to do?
...
Spicer awoke again. It was always round this time he would wake up. Feeling restless again, he put on his robe before exiting out of the room. Opening the double doors he walked the hallway pausing to look at his factory before continuing to walk. Ashley wasn't at the computers so she must have gone to sleep. He continued walking. Despite being the Ruler of the World there was one thing that he hated...loneliness.
Yes when he was conquering the world, doves of girls came to him saying he was god, asking him to "chose". Yet they were all awed with his position, not his personality, and that was sad. He went to a room where Wuya was. Yes he found her and wanted to gloat, only the response wasn't the one he wanted.
"Oh Shack, your here HIP"
He could already smell the scent of alcohol in the air. The floor was littered with beer and wine bottles. It was just sad. Wuya, after founding out Jack was conquering the world, slipped in a depression, unable to cope with the fact Jack had pulled it off. He had expected her to be mad, saying he would fail. Instead she turned to drinking to escape this. Was it pride? Was it because he did it? She never did this with Chase so perhaps it was him. Still he kept her around. Call it pity, but the fact was she was...shorta, kinda, not really, but a little bit, kind of friend.
"So Wuya...doing well"
A few hiccups followed.
"I've had better days. But do you think you can answer a question for me. Honestly I've always wondered it but HIP knew the answer. But now I have to ask"
"Well ask"
"You ever had sex before?"
Jack was caught of guard by that one.
"Um..."
"Well I'm just saying, your the dam king of kings, must of had some girls come to ya"
"Well yea I did, but-" Jack twiddled his thumbs before answering the rest
"Just that I rather have some like me for my personality"
Wuya burst out laughing
"What?"
"I see" she said before taking another drink
"You know Jack you built that creepy ass HIP Dude-Bot and that even freakier Yes-Bot. So are you gonna build a Sex-Bot?"
"Eh, no that would be creepy" said Jack
"So the Dude-Bot wasn't creepy?" said Wuya perking an eyebrow
"Well...It fought better then the Jack-Bots and it, um, well, eh"
"HIP, ah typical Jack. Evil boy genius who can't even get a girlfriend. HA"
"Your just drunk" said Jack with a tone of sadness
"No I'm not, I'm perfectly-"
Wuya collapsed on to Jacks lap passing out from the massive amount of drinking.
"Great now I have to deal with your bitching and moaning tomorrow" he muttered. Hangovers really did do a lot of damage
He started to stroke Wuyas hair. For being 1,500 years old, her hair felt so smooth for so reason. He didn't do this because he liked her in 'that' way. Just did it because it somewhat helped seal the void of loneliness. He soon fell asleep a the couch, enjoying the quietness.
