Time for chapter 4! Last chapter, Dina and Joe returned to Selena's house for safety, only to be ambushed by 3 soldiers. Dina and her friends couldn't hurt them, and Dina was about to be attacked when an 11-year-old girl named Lacunae appeared and defeated the soldiers on her own. Dina thought she recognized the voice of the trio's leader, but didn't take the time to confirm her suspicions. Instead, Dina and Lacunae ran into Selena's house.

This one includes my first OC! It's based on a videogame character as far as one of its powers, but the character itself is mine!

On with the chapter!

Chapter 4: Legions of Doom

*Dina's POV*

Once we got past the gate around the house, I slammed it shut, locked it, and continued to run. Lacunae was already at the door by the time I turned around.

I still can't believe how fast she is. I thought.

We ran inside and closed the door, which armed the security systems. I let out a sigh of relief.

"This place is really cool!" Lacunae said in amazement.

"Yeah, it is." I replied. I pulled out Selena's medal. "Why don't you give her a tour?" I asked Selena. She appeared in front of me and walked over to Lacunae, then she turned to me.

"Um… who's this?" she asked me.

"This is Lacunae." I replied. "She saved me from those soldiers that attacked us. She says she has magical abilities and is the 'Summoner of the Moon.'"

Selena gave me a skeptical look, then turned to Lacunae and gave her a tour of the house.

Everything was calm for a while, but I still worried, since I was sure that I knew who the leader of that group was. And if I was right, the leader of the entire army was going to be someone who would be almost impossible to defeat.

"Hey Dina!" A voice said, snapping me back into reality.

"Oh hey, Rupert." I said. I had let everyone out of their medals so they could meet Lacunae and pretty much do what they wanted for a while.

"Is something wrong?" he asked.

"I'm just thinking." I replied.

"About what?" he asked, sitting down next to me.

"I think I know who the leader of that group that attacked us was." I said. "I recognized the voice."

"Who do you think it was?"

I knew he would ask that, but I didn't want to worry the others by saying the answer out loud. Instead, I opened the telepathic link between us and told him, then closed it off. He looked surprised.

"That's not possible." He said after a minute.

"I'm almost sure that's who it was." I replied. "I didn't get a chance to confirm it, but the voice was exactly the same."

Rupert was about to say something, but then Todd walked over to us, so we stopped talking about it.

"Hey, what's going on?" he asked.

"I was just thinking." I said.

"About what?" he asked.

"What we are going to do now." I lied. But he knew it was a lie.

"No, what were you really talking about?" he asked, a hint of anger in his voice.

"I can tell you're upset." I said jokingly. "But you know I could easily beat you in a fight."

He calmed down. He knew I was right.

"Anyways, we were talking about who the leader of the group that attacked us was." I said. "I'm almost sure that I know."

"Who is it?" he asked.

I was about to answer, but then all the others walked over to us, so I figured it was time to tell them all.

I let out a sigh. "I think the leader of the group was Saige." I said. Everyone except Lacunae and Rupert looked shocked. Pauleen spoke up first.

"It can't be her!" she shouted. "You killed her, didn't you?"

"I did, but I'm almost sure it was her." I replied. "I don't know how, but she's back."

"If that's true, and she was just leading a small group, the leader of the entire army must be even more powerful." Selena said.

Pauleen and Todd had worried looks on their faces. I turned to Rupert, who looked nervous as well. I suddenly had a flashback to the battle, realizing that they were the first ones to get killed.

I snapped back to reality and noticed Lacunae's confused look. Then she finally spoke up.

"Um… who's Saige?" she asked.

"Saige was the leader of an army we recently fought. She was very powerful and even managed to kill all of my friends before I killed her." I explained. "She was a Dinaurian, so my guess is that during the confusion, she turned into a medal, healed, and escaped."

"If she really is back, we'll just have to defeat her again." Todd said, cracking his knuckles.

"If that was her, she wasn't even trying to fight." Lacunae said. "I knocked her out with one kick in the face."

"Yeah, but you were running at about 100 miles per hour." I said. "You could probably tie with me in a race at that speed." I added jokingly.

"Is that a challenge?" she asked.

"I guess we could race around the training area in the backyard." I said.

"You're on!" she shouted.

With that, we went outside to race. Selena was the referee.

"Okay, are you both ready? She asked. We both nodded. "Alright! 3! 2! 1! GO!"

We were about to take off when we heard a noise that sounded like an explosion. The alarms started going off, and Todd, Pauleen, Rupert and Banette were still inside the house.

"Let's go!" I shouted. Selena returned to her medal, and Lacunae and I ran back to the house.

When we got inside, what we saw shocked us. Everything had been thrown outward from the middle of the room, where a soldier with a black outfit and helmet was standing. Nothing was on fire, so I knew that it wasn't an ordinary explosion. I looked around and saw my friends in fighting stances with scrapes and bruises everywhere.

"Who are you?!" I shouted at the soldier.

"Ah, you must be Dina" The soldier said. I knew now that the soldier was female, but I didn't recognize the voice, which made me wonder how she knew me.

"Yeah, I am, so now it's your turn to introduce yourself!" I shouted.

"My name is none of your concern." She said. "I will tell you this: I was sent by Saige to destroy the six of you."

So Saige is back. I thought.

"You are right about Saige's return." She said. I stared at her, confused. "You seem surprised. Well, let me tell you something else: I can read minds, and I have powers that are more powerful than those of anyone you've ever encountered."

"We'll see about that!" I shouted in anger. I charged an attack and fired it at her. She lifted her hand towards my attack and it simply disappeared. I stared at her in shock. Suddenly, she stomped and a shockwave released from her body, sending everything around her flying away, including me and my friends. I was thrown into the wall, but I flipped myself and kicked off of the wall. I flew straight towards her with my robot leg aimed at her face, but as I was about to hit, she touched my leg and I was blown backwards by an invisible shockwave. I hit the wall head first, but I was still conscious. I stood up.

Crap, she can use shockwaves to deflect my melee attacks, and she can negate ranged powers with her bare hands?! Who is she?! I thought.

"That's not all I can do." she said. She raised her right arm. She pulled up her sleeve and removed her glove, and what I saw surprised me.

Her arm had thick, curved orange stripes that ran from her elbow to her palm, and the back of her hand had two silver crests. One looked like circle with a dragon of some sort in the middle, and the other looked like a sword. There was also a mark on her palm that looked kind of like a lightning bolt.

"What is that?!" I shouted in surprise.

The figure didn't say anything. Instead, she touched the sword crest with her other hand, and a dark aura engulfed her hand. The orange stripes on her arm started glowing, and she slammed her fist into the ground. Six glowing circles appeared in the ground and a beam of electricity shot from each. When they faded, six figures appeared in a circle around her, each looking like an armored knight with a long sword. They had blue flames where their feet should have been, and they hovered above the ground.

I stepped back in shock until I was against the wall. All of my friends did the same, except Lacunae, who stood there looking like she was ready to kill the soldier.

"What in the world are those things?!" I shouted in shock.

"They are my legions." She explained. "They are basically lost souls that are under my control. Right now, they are in a defensive stance. You can tell by the blue flames. Right now, they will only attack if I order them to. If those flames turn orange, that means that they are in an offensive stance and will attack any creature they want. Unless I do this!"

The lightning bolt on her hand glowed and she swung her hand towards Rupert. An electric arc shot into him and he stumbled backwards. Orange electric arcs glowed around him, and the same color of arcs surrounded her hand.

"What have you done to him?!" I shouted at her.

"I have marked him for my legions. If I order them to attack, they will only attack him now." she said. My eyes grew wide as I realized what she was doing.

She was going to kill Rupert.

I screamed in anger and charged at her. Her arm stopped glowing and the arcs around Rupert disappeared. She swung at me, shooting the arc into me instead. I stumbled back, stunned by the attack.

"This will be the last thing you will ever hear." She said. "My name is Argis. I am a warrior who has survived over countless years thanks to these creatures. I am basically immortal, and I am almost as good with a sword as my legions."

A silver sword appeared in her hand, then the blade became engulfed in blue flames. She pointed the sword at me.

"Kill her." She said.

A blue ring shot outward from her, and the legions dashed over to me and swung their swords at me. I dodged by jumping backwards, but one of them got behind me. I shocked it, but it didn't even seem to affect it. It raised its sword to stab me. The other legions ran towards me as well.

Then I saw Todd and Rupert running towards me and Pauleen, Selena and Banette running towards Argis. Todd punched one of the legions in the head and it fell to the ground, but got back up quickly. Rupert shot water beams at the others, which distracted them for a moment, but they almost immediately recovered.

"These things are tough!" I shouted. I jumped up, spun around and kicked them all in the head with one move. They fell to the ground. While they were down, I saw Argis slash at Selena, who grabbed the sword with her robotic arm, stopping it. Pauleen ran up and kicked at her, but she tore the sword from Selena's grip and blocked the kick with the flat edge of the sword. Pauleen kicked off of it and knocked Argis back in the process. Banette flew down behind her and punched her in the back of the head with her robotic arm, knocking her down. She got back up and so did the legions. I kicked one of the legions again. This time, I heard a noise that sounded like glass shattering, and all of the legions disappeared.

"Impossible!" Argis shouted. "You broke my legion crest!"

She released a shockwave to knock us back, then touched the dragon-like crest on her hand. I could clearly see cracks in the sword crest as she did. She slammed her hand into the ground again, and a creature that looked like an angel with flaming feet appeared.

"Kill them!" Argis shouted.

The creature disappeared, then reappeared in front of me with its wings folded around it. It spun and flew at me like a rocket. It hit me in the chest, blowing me back into the wall and knocking the wind out of me. It then disappeared and flew through the wall, slamming into my back and launching me across the room. It appeared above me and dove towards me.

I heard someone shout something, and I knew what was going on.

Lacunae had finally joined the fight.

She turned into a blur and kicked Argis in the head before she could react. Argis stumbled back and the sword reappeared in her hand. She swung at Lacunae, who dodged, ran towards me, and kicked the creature that was trying to kill me. I heard a sound like glass breaking, and it disappeared just as it was about to hit me.

"No!" Argis shouted. "This can't be happening!"

"You messed with the wrong people!" Pauleen shouted.

"Shut up!" Argis yelled. She charged at Pauleen, jumped into the air, and slammed her sword into the ground. Pauleen moved out of the way just in time to avoid getting stabbed. Argis jumped back and charged at Pauleen. The attack hit, and Pauleen was knocked back and engulfed in flames. She screamed in pain, but Rupert extinguished the flames quickly. Lacunae and I were beyond angry. We both charged at Argis at top speed and kicked her at the same time. She fell on the ground and was unconscious.

We had won.

And that's it! I think that was the longest chapter I have ever written! How did you like my OC? The legion ability is from a game called Chaos Legion, in case you were wondering. That's the only thing I copied for Argis. The sword legion is known as the Guilt legion, and the angel is Thanatos, the ultimate legion. Anyways, I'll get the next chapter up soon, but until then, keep reading and reviewing!
