Chapter 3
The Stolen Koltovas
The alarm blared off from somewhere but no matter, I woke up with a start. Sitting up quickly the PM sat next to my head scratching its metallic head. "I'm sorry Master Will, for waking you up so early. But..."
I grabbed its spherical head to stop it from talking anymore. "It's alright...I had a hard time sleeping anyways." I hopped off the bed and put on my purple line shield armor. Going inside the shower room and turning on the hot water I yelled out above the water's noise, "So why wake me up so early from my usual time?"
As I washed my unkempt hair I heard the PM squeak out, "Master Will, it's Master Patrick. He just called in 4 minutes ago while you were sleeping. He told me to tell you to meet up with everyone at Guardians HQ."
I finished washing my hair and turned off the water. Dry yet cold air rushed through from the ceiling, drying off my body, hair and everything else. Coming out of the steaming room I walked towards the 2 Partner Cards, their respective owner's faces facing upward.
"Alright, alright. Geez, and stop calling me Master." Picking the cards up and putting them into the NT, or nanotransformer for short, I then walked towards the doorway. I then yelled back, "Is Leesha also attending this mission?" I hope she is, I won't be able to hold myself against either Patrick or Paul.
The PM hovered next to me and replied, "Yes, she's attending. Leo specifically told her to oversee your abilities...and keep your attitude in check."
Heh, I'm gonna show Leo a thing or two about attitude when I come back from this mission. "Alright then, I'm off." I walked through the sliding door, hearing the squeaking sound of my PM's farewell.
Once I entered HQ Patrick was the first one to greet me at the doorway. "Hey, what's up Will! Can you believe it? We're gonna be on a mission together! He quickly grabbed my arm and pulled me to the supposed 'group'.
It consisted of Paul and Warren, who were sitting on the chairs. Tinny and Leesha were standing talking to each other. As I approached them Patrick then told me, "If you need any tips or advice, don't be afraid to ask me, eh?"
I looked at him coldly and shrugged. "If you wanted to know for any future reference, I'm a rogue. So I think I know how to fight."
"You mean you 'were' a rogue. Not to burst your prideful bubble but you're probably a wanna-be rogue." Paul then had his right foot on his left knee and placed his hands behind his back. "Ah well, if I was against a rogue like you, I'd cream you like a baby holding a Koltova sandwich.
I took out my twin daggers and angrily slashed at him with my right dagger but he horizontally blocked me with his rod. He then used his left leg and kicked me straight in the stomach making me float in mid-air for a second before I was sent sprawled onto the floor. I was ashamed. My face was right in front of his feet.
Looking down at me, he then asked me politely, "Ah, thank you Will. Never knew you praised me like a God." And his rod suddenly disappeared in thin air. Same went for my twin daggers.
I slowly got up and dusted myself off. "Tch, whatever, I wasn't even that serious. You're not worth my skill."
Before Paul could retaliate with another insult Leesha then went between us. "Come on guys, listen! Our briefing is about to start." We heard footsteps approaching from the right and we saw Leo with a clipboard in his arm.
"Well hello everyone! Seems like you're all acquainted with each other. " He smiled brightly.
I looked back at Paul and saw him smirking at me. Warren was sleeping with his head on the head of the seat.
Patrick held Tinny's hand and they both looked at Leo attentively. Leesha was right next to me and Leo started his briefing.
"If you guys heard the news just yesterday, some Koltovas has been stolen from farmers at Parum. They asked immediate assistance from the Guardians. That's when all of you will come in to help them." He looked at all of us seriously. "They say that their photon-generated barriers has been 'slashed' open, which seems to be quite a crazy idea. But when Guardians made an inspection of their vehicles and barriers, there were literally slash marks ripped through the barriers."
"So that's how the Koltovas were stolen," Leesha muttered.
Thumping his chest, Patrick then stated, "Don't worry Leo. We'll be on our way! Come on everyone!" Patrick walked off, much to Tinny's disapproval. Paul and Warren coolly walked towards the door as well. Leesha and I was about to leave when Leo grabbed my shoulder gently and asked towards Leesha, "Leesha, can you please go ahead? I have something to tell Will and its private."
With an understanding nod Leesha then walked off by herself out the doorway.
I looked at Leo and saw a small chip slip out from Leo's pocket. "Here, take this Will."
He handed me the chip and I looked at it closely, I asked, "Yeah, uh, what's this for, Leo? A present?" He nodded and scratched his head.
"I recieved that chip from someone not long ago. What's his name? Uhh, ah, that's right! Pop!" Just by the mention of his name I suddenly felt my entire being feel all happy.
"Wait, Pop? You know him?!"I quickly walked up towards Leo but he instantly backed up.
"Well, not personally, but he's been a contact of mine. It seems like he sent this to me before you joined the Guardians. That chip you're holding is quite powerful so please use it cautiously. Oh, and he also said he loves you like a son." He then looked at me with concern. "You alright there, Will?"
I gritted my teeth and the chip turned into thin air, zipping right into my NT. "Alright, thanks Leo..for this."Leo grinned and smacked my shoulder.
"No problem, Will. Now move along, you better get going or else they're gonna leave you." I nodded slowly and sprinted out of the doorway.
When I got to the Parum Gateway, Leesha, Patrick and Tinny were the only ones waiting for me. "So, where's that Paul or Warren guy?"
Leesha looked back at the gateway and sighed. "They left, saying that they could finish this mission up quickly. I doubt it though."
I saw Tinny whisper something at Patrick's ear and he grinned. "Hey Will, we should party together! That would be way safer than going solo. You get more protection and its fun hanging out. Whatcha say we do that?"
I glanced back at Leesha and she nodded with a small smile. "Geez, alright, let's party up." At least that damn Paul wouldn't be in the party. As we registered each other to the party we then boarded the space jet.
The inside was just good enough to fit at least 6 people. Chairs were leather-like and the entire material the plane was made out was titanium or something. Leesha closed the sliding door that was on the right and sat on the co-pilot seat. Patrick took the pilot seat and Tinny sat right next to me.
Looking at everyone, Patrick yelled out excitedly, "Alright everyone! You guys ready? Oh, and Will, you're probably not used to this, so hold onto the armrests, okay?"
I glared at him when all of a sudden I was pushed back into my seat as the space jet sped up through the tunnel. We were going really fast! And just in a second, we were at normal speed flying through space. We were now inside this blue photon-like tunnel that arched its way towards a really beautiful planet of blue and green.
"Wow..." I looked out the circular window in amazement.
"Pretty....right?" I looked back to see Tinny twiddling her thumbs on her lap. "I...felt the same when I looked out of those windows. It changed the way I looked at things."
Okay, did she just say all that? Must've been something important in that sentence. I grinned and nodded. She blushed and looked forward grinning when she saw Patrick's face light up with laughter and smiles. Leesha on the other hand was looking out the other window with a computer terminal in her hand.
"Hey Will! Great view, huh? Dude, Tinny and I made out right here in this jet."
I furrowed my brows at him at confusion. "Wha....seriously?"
Tinny blushed a bright red and squeaked out, "Patorikku!" He laughed as we then started our descent towards the Parum Spacestation. We landed with no problems and as we got out of the jet I saw a whole new place in front of my eyes.
"Holy crap...this is not the Guardians Colony, that's for sure." The space station was a HUGE building that consisted of beautiful pearl walls with a metallic roof that was shaped like a rectangle. There were some attendants who were all.....Casts.
My body suddenly burned in rage, seeing these Casts strutting around. "Why...are we here?"
Leesha looked at me and gently placed her hand on my shoulder, smoldering my rage. "Will, don't pay attention to these Casts. Remember, Parum has a major populace of Casts. Come on now, we're gonna-" Before she completed her sentence we heard a loud "HEY!"
All 4 of us looked to see 2 girls, a Human and Beast running towards us. The human girl had long blond hair and wore on the black Gojoj set while her Beast friend has long black hair that went to her lower back and wore on a white Hulana jacket, bottoms and shoes. Her interesting features were the green cat eyes and cat ears.
"Hey fellow Guardians, how are you all?" asked the Beast girl.
Leesha smiled and held out her hand and they both gave a handshake. "Hey, we're just heading off to a mission. The name's Leesha, this here is Will and behind us is Patrick and Tinny."
The human girl than received the handshake as well. "The name's Amanda Gilbert and this girl here is Jasmine Tyrell. We were just heading over to a mission...um, the stolen Koltova one."
Patrick's face then lit up. "Hey, we're doing the same mission! Maybe we can team up?" Amanda walked up to him and gently punched him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry man, we'll get to party together later. For now I'm already in a party so peace!" She then ran off with Jasmine. I noticed as they walked towards the space jets that Jasmine looked at me furtively. Hm...
Leesha stood next to me, looking at the 2 girls. "Amanda Gilbert? Why does that last name sound so familiar?"
"Eh, who knows," I replied as I then walked towards the jets. "So we have to get on ANOTHER jet? Damn...this is taking too long!"
Patrick patted my back and then walked towards the jets saying, "Don't worry about it! Once you get used to it, it'll feel like heaven!" What the hell was he even talking about?
We embarked on another jet and then landed gently onto a grassy area. As all 4 of us jumped off the jet, it then flew up a bit and then zoomed right into the sky, heading towards base.
A longbow suddenly appeared in Patrick's hands and a huge Sword appeared in Tinny's. Damn, a Sword? Leesha had her hands equipped with twin claws and I held my twin daggers in mine.
Looking around we were dropped off at a grassy plains area. Long heads of grasses swayed in the cool breeze that flowed through the place. Flowers of all kinds grew in patches in some locations with some rocks piled on top of each other.
"This place is big so be alert and let's start!" Leesha then ran forward with Patrick and Tinny in tow. I followed them and we then arrived to a cliff that looked over another grassy plain. There were Vahras scouring around the place, as if they were on patrol or something.
"Hey, they're Vahras! Will, watch me and Tinny fight and you may learn something, alright?" Before I could retort he and Tinny jumped off the cliff and held their weapons dowards, aimed towards a group of Vahras. "You think you're so good..." I muttered.
"Will, you could learn something from them, just watch," Leesha exclaimed as he also jumped off the cliff. Tinny plunged her sword through a Vahras head, killing it in one hit. Patrick slammed into a Vahras head and shot its head with an arrow. 2 other Vahras spotted him and rushed towards him but he executed a front flip arcing over them. At the same time he unleashed 2 arrows striking into both of the Vahras heads. He looked up to see Tinny about to be ambushed by a Vahra from behind. He stood up and quickly fired an arrow that struck through the Vahras stomach. Looking back at him Tinny smiled in thanks.
"Tinny, be careful alright!" Patrick was about to say something when Tinny charged towards him with her Sword about to swing.
"Patorikku, duck!"
Patrick nodded and ducked low as he felt a whoosh of air slice through above him. He heard a squeal from behind and then smiled. "Thanks Tinny for the assistance!" He stood up and gave her a big kiss on the cheek as she giggled.
I rolled my eyes at those obvious lovers and watched Leesha...cream them. "Damn...she's good," I heard myself mutter silently.
Leesha was surrounded by 6 Vahras. 2 of them came at her from the front and the other 2 came from behind. Leesha charged forward and jumped ontop of one of the Vahras and stabbed both of her claws into its face, making it squeal to death. She quickly got up to a handstand and slammed the dead Vahra onto the other Vahra, killing them both. She then ducked, dodging an attack from the Vahras behind her. Sweeping her leg behind her, the Vahra tripped and Leesha then slashed at it vertically. Holding both of her claws in an X, she blocked the other Vahra's attack.
2 Vahras from her left side then approached her quickly, snarling along the way. She pushed the Vahra away and did a roundhouse kick at its face, making it sprawl into the ground. The 2 Vahras then lunged towards her....I don't think she's gonna make it!
"Rraaaahhh!!!" I jumped off the cliff and before those 2 Vahras knew it I landed on one of them and plunged my right dagger into its brain. I then did a horizontal slash with my left dagger, slicing the other Vahras arm off. I dislodged my right dagger and then threw it at the armless Vahra, shooting it smack dab into its face. I then did a front flip and grabbed my dagger out of the Vahras face before it fell to the ground. I landed with a crouch and got up slowly. Leesha, Patrick and Tinny looked at me amazed. Yeah, I showed them.
"Daaang! Nice fighting style, Will!" Patrick yelled out as he ran towards me. Oh no...
I pointed at him, slowly backing away. "Patrick, stop RIGHT there! Hey, HEY!" Before I could stop him, he held his hand up and smacked it onto my back, sending out signals of intense throughout my entire body.
"Gaaahhh!!!" I slowly dropped to my knees and held my hand on my back.
"Patorikku, control yourself!" Tinny shrieked out as she tackled him to the ground. Leesha giggled and knelt beside me.
"Looks like you're making new friends."
I then slowly got up and smiled. "Yeah, maybe you're right." When I saw Leesha's face turn to amazement I then returned back to my rebellious self...but I spluttered. "I-it's just temporary, that's all!" Leesha smiled and led the way. Ah man...
We finally got to the mouth of a forest. There was a wooden sign on the right that read, "Rick's Ranch". The forest path led a linear line to a fenced off area."Well, we're finally here," Patrick said as he took a deep breath. He seems to be nervous now.
"Well well well, who do we have here?" We all looked back to see....Paul, Warren, and those 2 girls, Amanda and Jasmine! "We've been waiting for you guys. What took so long?" His eyes then found mine. "Hey Will, what's up?"
I narrowed my eyes and looked back at the forest. "Come on guys, let's go."Before I could move a step I heard something whiz behind my ear and hit a tree in front of me.
"Hey man, I thought we were friends?" Patrick said. Looking behind me I saw Amanda holding a machine-gun in her hand, aiming it at me.
"Sorry bro," Amanda said sheepishly. Damn...
I looked at Jasmine and saw her holding an axe. No way...
Then when I looked at Warren....well, I was surprised. He was sleeping while standing! What the hell?
Leesha walked forward and pointed her claws at Paul. "We shouldn't fight right now, not when we have a mission to fulfill!" Paul raised his arms up and looked at us angrily.
"That's what I was trying to tell you guys. Maybe if we combined both of our parties together, it may be better!" Leesha looked at Patrick and he nodded.
"Alright then, let's go...together." Leesha then walked off with me, Patrick and Tinny. Paul and his party was right behind us.
When we approached the ranch, something felt REALLY wrong. The whole entire place was empty, save for 5 bloodied bodies on the ground with a bloody Koltova behind them. We all ran forward to meet them. I knelt beside an old man, who looked human. He had wisps of grey hair growing out and had whiskers. His entire body was covered with cuts and bruises with a slash wound that went through his stomach.
"Hey old man, you alright?" I asked hesitantly. His eyes fluttered open and breathed a raspy sigh.
"G-guardians, are you? You've come...to late." He then started coughing like crazy, spitting out bloody saliva from his mouth.
I looked around to see the others helping the bodies up. "Hey, um, what happened here? When were you all attacked?" The old man grabbed the collar of my shirt and looked into my eyes.
"Sonny, listen, I don't have...much time. They....they almost kidnapped our last Koltova. We tried protecting it...to no avail. My grandson and daughters are in the cabin. Please bring them to their mother and father at the Guardians Colony...I beg of you." I gulped and saw the Koltova they tried to protect, its stomach carved out with its guts spilled onto the ground. Ah, that's disgusting!
I suddenly heard a gasp emit from the old man's mouth. "Th-there here!"
I looked back and saw something...I've never seen before. 5 figures wearing black trench coats stood there. A cowl covered their head and obscured their faces. The one in the middle walked towards us slowly, as if he was trying to intimidate us with his presence. Pff, as if he can!
Lowering the old man's body, I then stood up and held up my twin daggers. "Who are you?"
Leesha, Patrick, Tinny and Paul's party looked up to see those dark coated people and they also got up. The one who was walking towards us suddenly stopped and held out his hand. A huge scythe suddenly appeared in his hand, the curved photon blade jutting out dangerously.
Leesha suddenly gulped. "Anything wrong?" I whispered at her.
She looked at me with fear in her eyes. "These guys are...dangerous. We have to get out."
I walked towards the coated man and pointed at him. "Hey buster, if you mind, let my friends go back to the Colony. Your gonna deal with me." Just then another figure stood beside me.
"And you're gonna deal with me." I looked to my side to see Paul with his rod aimed at the mysterious figure.
"Everyone, get inside the cabin, grab those grandkids they have in there and run!" I yelled back. Everyone nodded and rushed off. The only people here was just me, Paul, the mysterious scythe guy and his 4 goons.
I then held my daggers up, getting ready for anything the guy dishes at us. "Paul, you get in my way, I'll kill you."
Paul smirked and replied, "Tch, don't worry, I'd do the same to you."
I nodded and saw the scythe guy start to run towards us. "Let's go!" We both yelled as we head out to meet the enemy.
