The Crimson Diamonds

This is a parody of the episode of Sonic-X, "Cracking Knuckles."

Chapter 5: Angry Archfiend

It was late at night, and the moon was full. In the moon's light, on the very pinnacle of the highest skyscraper of New Domino City, stood Red Dragon Archfiend. Arms folded, the Dragons stared at the Morphtronic base. All night, he had tried his hardest to break through the shield, but to no avail. He felt like a complete failure at that moment. The only thing that could brighten his mood now would be a trip to the volcano to take in it's luxurious heat, but of course, that was impossible.

"Red Dragon Archfiend?"

Archfiend looked down to see Leo, floating on his Duel Board hundreds of feet above the street.

"What do you want, pip-squeak?" Archfiend said.

Leo looked up at him, and then he burst into tears.

"Oh Archfiend! Please! We have to help Power Tool Dragon stop Black Winged Dragon!"

"What?"

"Power Tool found out that Black Winged wanted to steal the Crimson Diamonds for himself! Black Winged planed to use the Diamonds to travel throughout all worlds and have all sorts of crazy adventures. You know how reckless he is! He's just like Crow, no, he's even worse! Power Tool knew that the only thing to do would be to take the Diamonds and hide them in his base and use a force field to keep Black Winged out. He was gonna tell you and the others, but before he could do that, or even activate his force field, Black Winged attacked! He stole back the Diamonds and activated Crimson Control, sending you guys all here! He even lied to the Signers and told them that Power Tool activated Crimson Control and was trying to take over the world, which is a lie! Even your own master, Jack, was fooled! You have to defeat Black Feather Dragon and stop him before he can find even one Crimson Diamond! Then we can help Power Tool find them, and then you can all go home! What do you say? Are you in?"

Archfiend snarled and said, "That cocky little sparrow! How dare he let his little thrill-seeking mission throw us into a chaotic situation! When I get a hold of him, he'll be begging for mercy!"

Leo did his best to hide his smile. This was too easy!


The next morning, Jack was riding around on his Duel Runner to clear his head.

"Will these wild situations never end?" he thought, "I just hope I get to pound Leo as soon as possible!"

Suddenly, Jack stopped in his tracks.

"What is it now?" he moaned. He looked to the left and right, and he saw that he had been trapped in the Magna Lock of two Morphtronic Magnens.

"Hey! Let me go! Help!" Jack shouted as the Magnens rose into the air and began to carry Jack away, Duel Runner and all.


"WooHoo!" Black Winged shouted as performed a flying loop high above New Domino City, while feeling the warmth of the setting sun on his feathers.

"Hey Black Winged!"

Black Winged looked down to see Leo flying toward him on his Duel Board.

"Power Tool Dragon has a message for ya!" he said, and he tossed Winged a TV set.

Black Winged caught it in his wings, and the angry face of Archfiend appeared on it.

"Black Winged Dragon! You've gone way too far this time! You're no longer an annoying little brother. Now, you are my enemy! And a threat to the Crimson Dragon! Come to the area outside Power Tool Dragon's shield, and we shall do battle!"

The TV turned off, and Power Tool Dragon's voice came on, saying, "This message has been brought to you by the Morphtronic Machines Corporation. We are not responsible for any of it's content, except this part!"

KABOOM!

The TV exploded, covering Black Winged with even blacker soot.

"My plumage..." he said softly, then he scowled and said, "Archfiend is gonna regret that!"


The two dragons met each other in no time at the aforementioned area over water.

"Why are you siding with Power Tool Dragon?" Black Winged said.

"Because it is the right thing to do!" Archfiend said.

"What?"

"Don't play dumb with me! Put up your dukes and fight!"

Black Winged grinned and said, "I don't have any!"

"THAT'S IT!"

Archfiend dived for Black Winged, but Black dodged him easily, and then whipped him in the back with his tail.

Archfiend roared with rage, and sent a fireball at Black. Black did another skillful dodge, and then flew up close to Archfiend and blew some smoke in his face.

This got Archfiend even madder, and he punched Black as hard as he could in the beak.

Black snarled, and he dived upwards and zoomed around Archfiend at high speeds. Without warning, Black zoomed at Archfiend and bit him on the tail. Archfiend roared out in pain, and he flew around desperately, trying to shake the determined dragon off his tail.

Meanwhile, Power Tool Dragon and Leo, on his Duel Board, were watching the battle from afar. Between was Jack, suspended between the Magnens in his Duel Runner, completely unconscious.

"Get him, Archfiend!" Power Tool shouted.

"Go on, Red! Shake him off! Kick his b-, uh, I mean tail" Leo shouted.

Archfiend eventually managed to shake Black Winged off. Black Winged used his wing to wipe his beak, and he said, "Tastes like chicken!"

Quite frankly, saying this was a big mistake.

"THAT'S REALLY IT! NO MERCY!"

Archfiend sent a sea of flames at Black Winged. Black dodged the fire, only to get tackled by Archfiend. Archfiend grabbed him by the neck and got ready to perform a deadly punch at his throat.

"No! Wait! Listen to me! Power Tool's the bad guy!" Black pleaded.

"I'm tired of your lies!" Archfiend roared.

At this very moment, Jack woke up. He saw the two dragons.

"Why are they fighting each other?" he thought. Immediately, his mark began to glow.

Archfiend froze. "Master?" he said. He released Black Winged and looked toward Power Tool and Leo. Then he saw where they had Jack captured.

"He see us!" Leo gasped.

"Later, Leo!" Power Tool said, and he zoomed off through the force field and back into the base.

Archfiend smashed the two Magnens and grabbed Jack and his Duel Runner with his foot claws. He then snarled at Leo and said, "You! You liar!", and slapped him hard with his hand.

"AHHHHHHH!" Leo screamed as he was sent flying out of sight.

"Are you alright, master?" Archfiend asked Jack.

"I suppose so," Jack said, "You could've done that sooner instead of fighting Black Winged Dragon for no apparent reason."

Archfiend bowed his head in shame and said, "You are wise, master. I should have been suspicious when Leo claimed that you had been deceived by Black Winged Dragon. Your endangerment certainly proves that Power Tool is the true evil one in this situation."

He then turned to the approaching Black Winged Dragon and said, "I could have killed you during that fight-,"

"You would have killed me during that fight," Black Winged said gravely.

Archfiend's wings seem to droop with shame. "I should have known that you would never betray us. Please, I beg for your forgiveness."

Black Winged grinned and said, "Come on, Archfiend! How could I not forgive you? Come on, follow me! I'll show you our secret spot for resting in between Diamond searches. From there, we can let the other Signers know that you're here."

And so, Jack and the two dragons soared off towards the protected piece of the Duel Spirit World.
