The Crimson Diamonds
Chapter 11: The Creation of a Monstrosity
With a flash, the Army of the Crimson Dragon appeared on the deck of Air Fortress Ziggurat.
"Okay," Stardust said, "Everyone, summon your monsters, because it's time to-."
Stardust stopped in mid sentence when he took the time to look around. It soon came apparent to everyone that the deck of the airship was completely empty.
"Huh? Where's the huge army of Morphtronics?" Bruno remarked.
Suddenly, a trap door open, and out flew Power Tool Dragon. He looped in mid-air, and landed right in front of the Army of Heroes.
"Show off," Crow and Black Winged both remarked.
"I guess he's gonna take us all on simultaneously," Luna said.
Suddenly, ran up to Power Tool.
"Leo! No!" Luna exclaimed.
"Power Tool! Please, listen to me!" Leo pleaded, "You've got to surrender! They mean business! They'll destroy you! They'll tear you apart! They have all five of the Crimson Diamonds! They're invincible! They can destroy this entire ship just by snapping their fingers! You'll never win! Please! Be reasonable! Maybe if you surrender and say you're really, really, really sorry, maybe they'll let you make a kind of truce or alliance with them! You're a genius, Power Tool, I know you are. Use that genius to make the right choice. Come on! Be a good guy! Come on."
Power Tool stared at Leo for a moment or two, then, the dragon laughed a maniacal laugh.
Leo blinked. "Wha-what?" he stammered out.
Leo suddenly realized that Power Tool Dragon was wearing strange, metal sash across his chest, It had five holes in it...
"Collected Power, ACTIVATE!" Power Tool shouted.
The sash he was wearing suddenly began to glow with eerie, yellow light.
"No!" Fairy shouted as the five Crimson Diamonds were suddenly ripped from the Five Dragons' grasps.
The Diamonds quickly inserted themselves into the holes in Power Tools sash. The dragon laughed maniacally and said, "Finally! I've got ALL the Crimson Diamonds!"
Black Winged let out a battle screech and dove toward Power Tool.
"Crimson Control!" Power Tool said quickly.
With a flash of light, the dragons and humans were frozen in their tracks.
"Can't...move...," Archfiend said through clenched teeth.
"Me...neither...," Jack added.
"But...how...did you...?" Regulus asked.
Power Tool spread his arms wide and said, "Simple. I knew that when I activated Crimson Control back in our world, the gems would scatter in this world. I needed a way to bring them back to me, so, I used the power of Collected Power to make a device that would bring hem back to me. When I had the gems in my possession, I put microchips onto them, and synchronized them with the Collected Power Sash I'm wearing, so that when I activated it, the gems would fly over to me. However, the device had too many bugs in it, so it would only work in short range, meaning I couldn't use the device to bring the Crimson Diamonds to me at first, so I nearly gave up on this device, when I realized, why don't I just let you fool bring the Crimson Diamonds to me!"
"No..." Stardust gasped.
"Yes! I knew that once you got all five, you would use them to enter my inner sanctum and attack me, and that's when it all clicked into place! You would be close enough for me to use my device to rip the gems right out of your claws! In other words, I fooled you all so cleverly! HA, HA, HA, HA, HAAA!"
"No...we...fell for...his trick," Black Winged said through his clenched beak.
"Yes, you did, and now, for the piece de resistance! My transformation!"
"What?" everyone said.
"Yes, I will now decompile the power within these gems, and then Synchronize myself with them. However, in order for me to do this, I need a special sacrifice...the life force of a Signers! And after thinking about this for days and days, I have made my choice! I sacrifice... your life, Luna, Bearer of the Dragon's Claw!"
"No!" Leo said through his teeth.
"Oh, and just in case..."
Power Tool then flew over and grabbed the frozen Regulus, Kuribon, and Torunka in his excavating arm, and grabbed the petrified Leo with his tail.
"Your bonds are the strongest with her, and I do not want any interference. Now..."
Luna's eyes grew wide with terror as Power Tool pointed his screw driver at her.
"Crimson Spear!" Power Tool shouted.
Luna shut her eyes so she did not have to see the spear of red light approaching her.
FLASH!
Luna slowly opened her eyes, and saw a heart wrenching sight. Standing in front of her, with the Crimson Spear impaling her heart, was Ancient Fairy Dragon. She let out a pitiful moan, and she slumped over onto the deck.
"No!" Luna cried in despair. Her Crimson Control broken as well somehow, she ran over to her fallen dragon.
"Of course, the bond with her own dragon," Power Tool said, "How foolish of me. How could I have overlooked that..."
Luna over to the majestic dragon's head and stared into her fading eyes. "Why..." Luna said tearfully, "You didn't have to do...this..."
"Yes I did," Ancient Fairy Dragon said, "You will be the one to stop Power Tool Dragon. That is your destiny, not any of ours."
"But...but...how can I do it without you?"
"Who says that I will not be with you."
"Ancient Fairy... oh please! D-d-don't die..."
"Luna...I-I..."
Ancient Fairy Dragon was no more.
"You killed my Angel," Stardust said, "I am going to kill you!"
"I'm sorry, but I am afraid that you are in position to be giving threats. It seems as if the life force of one of the Five Dragons is equivalent to that of a Signers. So, it seem as if my finest hour has come!"
Power Tool threw off the Duel Spirits, and their frozen bodies fell hard onto the deck. He then lifted his tail in front of his and stared at Leo, freeing him from his Crimson Control.
"You were lying to me all the time!" Leo said, "You were planning to kill Luna all along!"
Power Tool nodded and said, "Yes, but that is only because it was the only choice to make. I didn't want to kill any of the dragons, Ancient Fairy Dragon committed suicide as far as I'm concerned. Also, I couldn't sacrifice any of the other Signers. They have other people that care about them dearly. As for Luna, you'd be a liar if you said your parents, who abandoned you to go on business trips, care about her! She wouldn't have been missed..."
"But what about Patty, Yusei, Akiza, Jack, Carly, Crow, Bruno, and all of her other friends!"
"Merely friends, a dime a dozen. The others have family, both biological and non-biological, such as that Martha woman."
"What about me! Did you think that simply being a Prince would make me forget about my own sister?" Leo said angrily.
Power Tool shook his head and said, "Leo, you would not need your sister where you are going..."
Leo turned as pale as a ghost.
Power Tool Dragon's chest suddenly opened up, revealing an eerie light, not unlike that found in the Ener-D reactor. Band of light grabbed Leo by his limbs.
"Leo, you will rule as a Prince, and we will rule together, only we will rule... AS ONE!"
Leo screamed as the bands of light pulled him in. "AHHH! NO! Someone, help me! AHHH!"
Once Leo was in, Power Tool Dragon said, "Now, I tune this boy, the spirit of Ancient Fairy Dragon, and myself, together with the five Crimson Diamonds, in order to Synchro Summon..."
The bright flash that followed was like a supernova.
When the light faded, it revealed, a monstrosity.
It was a dragon with the wings and arms of the Crimson Dragon, and the body, head, and legs of Power Tool Dragon. However, the dragon now had human eyes.
Leo's eyes.
"I am Crimson Cyborg Dragon!" it said, "I am the Crimson Dragon! I shall now awe the world with my power, and conquer it, and rebuild it in my own image!"
Luna stared up at the beast.
"You're...terrible...you're just some...incomplete monster!"
Suddenly, and without warning, five spheres of red light were ripped out of Crimson Cyborg Dragon, and zoomed right into Luna's body.
Luna let out a scream of intense pain, and with a flash, she had changed. Her hair was flying backwards in a magic breeze, and the arm bearing her mark had become a huge, crimson, glowing dragon claw.
She looked at her new weapon,and then glared at the beast before her.
"Thank you, Crimson Dragon," she thought, then she said, "I've got to stop him! Ancient Fairy Dragon! Lend me your power!"
This chapter is a parody of the Alf Wayla La Wayla battle form Sonic and the Secret Rings, as will be the next chapter. My secret twist will be revealed at the end of the next chapter. Stay tuned!
