I AM SO SORRY GUYS! I should have updated sooner but geometry and chemistry were kicking my butt… Anyway, I'm updating now and I hope to update AT LEAST once a month. Maybe… Ok now that's out of the way-
Disclaimer: I do not own Hero:108 or its characters, but the ocs, the gods, and the god concepts are mine.
Chapter One
Phoenix Territory
{Part One}
Woo the Wise's Chambers…
"Hmmm… I wonder if they really are real…" Woo pondered out loud. He started flipping through the text he found on the mysterious gods.
"Few…Ancients…Powerful...knows…" He mumbled as he skimmed over the book.
Woo kept rereading the old manuscript over and over again. Hoping to find some sort of clue as to whether they were real or fake.
'My scientific side says there is no such thing, but this other side of me says they are true!' Woo thought conflicted.
He began to turn the pages rapidly and carelessly, "Wahhh! They can't be real, but I want them to be!"
Riiiiip!
"Uh. Oh."
During his little mental debate, Woo wasn't paying attention and ripped the back page off.
He held the ripped page in his hand and looked down at the offended tome.
Woo, although looking calm on the outside, was freaking out on the inside, 'What do I do? What do I do? What do I-'
He stopped his breakdown for a moment and looked closely at the tear in the seam of the book.
"What's this?" He mused, pulling at the end of his mustache.
Woo lied down the torn page and set his sights on the back of the book.
He gently split the inside of the back cover until the mystery was uncovered.
"An old folded piece of parchment?" Woo picked it up, cautiously examining it. He slowly opened it up to find-
"A map?"
Indeed it was. It was a map of the Old World and its territories. The chart was so beautifully detailed and exact that it rivaled even Lin Chung's drawings.
The young scientist jumped for joy, "Finally! My questions will be answered! I can determine their authenticity once and for all! Yahoo!"
Meanwhile…
Beep! Beep! Beep!
"Commander Apetrully is in trouble!" Mr. No-Hands said as he looked at the receiver, "First Squad! Deploy!"
They all jumped down the twisting tubes that lead them to their turtles at the launching dock, as they headed out of Big Green to save their Commander.
"You, brutes!" A certain commander yelled to a certain leader of an army of eagles.
The Bald Eagle King paid him no mind as he carried out Highroller's orders. Which were to distract First Squad, so he could carry out the rest of his plans.
"Release the Commander, Eagle King!" Lin Chung shouted as he and the rest of First Squad came rolling up.
"Yeah! Otherwise we'll hafta beat your butts!" Mighty Ray added enthusiastically.
"Oh, thank goodness you've come!" Commander Apetrully said gratefully.
The Eagle King turned his attention to the tied up leader of Big Green and smirked.
Mr. No-Hands growled, "There's only one of you and five of us, Eagle King! Surrender now!"
Eagle King stood there for a few more seconds and then took a deep breath.
"Screech! Scree! Screeech!" The Eagle King stayed there with his wing outstretched, pointing at First Squad.
Nothing Happened.
Mighty Ray started to laugh and fell off his turtle. Mystique Sonia did the same, " Haha! What was that?"
The trees around the forest opening they were at started to rustle.
"Shhh…" Lin Chung glanced around out of his peripherals, "I don't think Eagle King was screeching for nothing."
He was right.
At least a hundred eagle flew out of the foliage around them and proceeded to dive and spit seeds at them.
Lin Chung immediately started to shoot the birds with his bamboo shoots, while Mr. No-Hands flew up into the air and kicked one sending it into one of its comrades.
"Augh! I hate bananas!" Mighty Ray said holding said fruit before he gulped it down.
"I am Mighty Ray! Fear my eyeballs!" Electricity shot out and dropped most of the eagles.
"Kerpleh!" Sonia used her tongue and hit the remaining opponents out of the sky.
In The Meantime…
"Hehehe! Once we find out how to get to those Ancients, Master Highroller will be so pleased!" whispered Sparky Black.
"Hehehe! Yeah, maybe he'll be so happy with our work that he'll give us lollipops!" Sparky White whispered back. His brother nodded his head in agreement.
The Zebra Brothers made their way through the corridors of Big Green once again, tip-toeing towards their prize.
The Devious Duo slowly entered First Squad's area. They looked at each other and grinned. Creeping up near the table, they found what they were looking for.
The two high-fived and giggled a little bit, "We got it!" they murmured in unison. They started to leave when Sparky Black spoke up.
"I wonder if we're going to make a habit out of this?"
"Out of what?"
"Sneaking into Big Green."
"I try not to think about it all that much."
Black contemplated this, "O.k."
They rolled out of Big Green and made their way back to Highroller's Palace.
Back At The Fight…
"You lose, Eagle King! Now give us back the Commander!" Mr. No-Hands yelled.
The Avian Royal glared and was about to signal the second wave when Bear King walked out from behind the trees.
Mighty Ray scratched his head in confusion, "Huh?" They all looked a little confused.
The bear growled something to the eagle and disappeared again.
The Eagle King picked the Commander up and threw him at First Squad. Lin Chung caught him and set him down.
"Oh! Thank you!" Apetrully said as he got rid of the ropes that had binded him previously.
When they all turned their attention back to the eagles they had already left.
"Commander, what did the Bear King say to the Eagle King?" Lin Chung asked.
"Hmmm…That is what puzzled me as well, Lin Chung. He said "Let's go."' Apetrully looked down thinking.
"That is weird, but we should probably go back to Big Green and ponder this fact." Mr. No-Hands.
They all nodded and hopped back on their turtles, eager to get back.
Thanks for being so patient guys, and I'm already writing the second part so there's that. Leave comments and reviews, please. Constructive critism is always appreciated! Again, Thank you!
