Now, I know I promised the chapter to be a little earlier, but I have a confession: I'm very lazy at some points. But now that I've written up Chapter 3, I've got to pick up the pace. So you get a bonus chapter. :D So here is your chapter.
Uruquizas: Do you really think DX owns the Yu-gi-oh trading card game, any Yu-gi-oh seasons, characters, or monsters used in this fanfic. Well if you do, you're wrong. He does own the personalities given to the OC's, so deal with it.
Chapter 2
The Meteor pt2
-The Flamvell Crater-
"Another loss! What is wrong with those slackers? Are we sending idiots to fight?"
My fire blazed as I looked down on the reporter, the Dragnov in front of me, who was quivering at my feet. Even so, he spoke clearly, "We have tried again and again to seize the land of the X-Sabers, but every time our numbers are overwhelmed, my liege."
"This is unacceptable! Our Deity will not be satisfied on the small bounty of the Crater for long. We will see to it that the bountiful land of the X-Sabers is ours. Gather our forces for tomorrow. We will strike again at noon."
"Yes, Lord Uruquizas." Dragnov exited my hut.
I rubbed my fingers on my temples in an attempt to suppress the migraine. Idiots! They can't keep losing to a bunch of swordsman. What could we do? If our Deity is displeased, it will end the Flamvell tribe. Our offerings have barely sustained him as it is. What if…
A chorus of ferocious barks cut my thoughts.
I exited my hut and stepped out into the village. The Crater was normal to us Flamvell: huts aligned the base, each sending smoke from their chimneys. Fires were spread around the ground, some snuffing out and leaving a black splotch of ground.
I looked toward the northern slope of the Crater. The Crater's slope was our greatest asset, for anyone caught trespassing would have to try and climb it while we laughed and pursued.
And it sounded like the show was about to begin.
I ventured towards the sound and chuckled. The Firedogs were in frenzy, and the Dragnov that reported to me, along with a Grunika, was holding a strange man. Well, more of a cyborg. Half of his body was covered in a technologically advanced blue armor. His knees were the eye catcher for me, as they bore a decorative X. This made my grin wider.
"Look at what we have here. We were just talking about your race, insect. What brings you here? Come do die faster?"
"Your threats are useless against me, Uruquizas." Pashuul didn't even struggle in his captives arms. "Gottoms sent me to you specifically because I can endure. I bring a message from Gottoms himself."
"What business could that coward of a swordsman have with me? He refuses to step up and fight, and now he wants to talk? We are not open for negotiations on our plight. What does he want?"
"It is an urgent message. An object is above the Corners, for the Wall has opened for it. It will…"
"WHAT KIND OF IDIOT DO YOU TAKE ME FOR, SWORDSMAN?" My fire blazed in my fury. "Nothing can penetrate the Wall! I can fully tell this is a lie to have us call back our attacks."
"Uruquizas, he has sent messengers to both the Mist Valley and Ice Barrier as well. If you are unsure, check with Thunder Lord and the Generals. They will confirm my message."
I pondered for a moment, and then I snapped my fingers. "Grunika and Dragnov, confirm with the other tribes."
The two released Pashuul and flew away.
"Well, I guess I will be on my way." Pashuul turned.
"Not so fast, swordsman." I grinned, and then I whistled. A pack of Firedogs came from behind me, charging at Pashuul.
"I need a little amusement first."
-The Generals Meeting Room-
"And you are sure the Caravan was escorted safely?"
The Geomancer spoke without faltering. "Yes, Master Grunard. The Caravan was brought back from the other world safely. Our Cryomancer and Samurai made sure of it."
Grunard nodded. "Very well, Geomancer. You have completed our request. You may leave."
The Geomancer nodded and exited our hall. Galanta sighed.
"Why take so many precautions to ensure a simple Caravan is protected? Surely there can't be that much danger seeking it."
"How can you say that when you have heard the reports yourself?" Grunard questioned. "There are other creatures though the Wall, creatures we have never seen. The only thing we can do is be cautious."
"Grunard is right." I spoke before Galanta could respond. "There is no shame in being cautious. We know not of the true nature of these beasts. You should stick to your duty, Galanta, and protect our tribe, even at the cost of your life."
"We ALL are risking our lives, Raiho." Galanta pointed out. If the seal on those Dragons give way, we may never be able to seal them again. And who knows what they'll do?"
"Even more reason to stick to your duty!" I roared. "It is our life's work to keep the Dragons suppressed. Know your place!"
Suddenly, wind rushed into the room, and in the center of the room stood three men, all wearing the same garments, a blue bandana below their white hair, and a long scarf encircling their neck. Each had two long swords sheathed behind their back.
"Sorry to intervene, my Lords," said the center Secret Agent, "but we have just identified two intruders. One from the X-Saber tribe, the other from the Flamvell tribe. Each is requesting your presence. Shall we bring them to you?"
I nodded. "Bring them here. We shall know the intent of their arrival."
"Yes, Lord Raiho." All three men vanished from our sight.
"Two intruders who want to speak with us? And of rivaling tribes?" Grunard folded his arms. "Hopefully they will not cause any trouble."
"They must have their reasons." Galanta spoke with uncertainty.
"Let us hope that their reasons are worth our time." My expression was cold.
The Agents returned, only this time they were accompanied by X-Saber Piranha and Flamvell Dragnov. The two starred at each other coldly, but our cold stares were even more intimidating.
"For what reason were you traversing our land, X-Saber?" My voice boomed.
"I come bearing a message from my Master, Sir Gottoms. An object has passed the Wall and is heading towards the planet. It will collide at the Corners in approximately 2 hours."
We all stood up, our faces shocked. But we moved on with our business. "And what of you, Flamvell?"
Dragnov shrugged his shoulders. "Uruquizas received the same message, but was too skeptical to believe it. He sent me and Grunika to confirm with you and Thunder Lord."
"Thank you. You both may leave." The two left the room, starring at each other the entire way.
"So what is our plan, Raiho?" Galanta asked, a little shaken by the news.
I paused, but spoke firmly. "Alert our units of this event! Prepare a team at the Corners to defend the Ice Barrier if need be. And shut off all connections to the other world."
"Yes, sir." Galanta and Grunard rushed out of the room.
-The Corners-
For an hour and a half, the Corners were in chaos. Orders from higher ups were roared over massive crowds. Fights between other tribes were broken up. Fortifications were set up in every direction. The entire section was a construction zone.
Then the hour of the event came.
The tribes starred at the object, as it looked stunning. Fire was forming on its surface, but a greyish color was still visible. Winds were blowing, the ground shook, and the entire planet seemed to be trembling.
And then it hit.
Well, this story is finally getting along. Tune in soon to see what happens.
Raiho: Review for our protection, please.
