Whatsup guys! Behold chapter three! It's actually longer than the first chapter. Anyway, the reason for slow updates is I've been really busy. So for a little while, updates will be few and far between. Still, reviews do help. Again, sorry for the shortage of updates.
Nick: Another new chapter? I'm not getting paid enough.
Duna: Your not getting paid at all.
Nick: Touché.
Kayla: How come I'm barely in this story?
Me: Don't worry; I'll put you in more in the next chapter.
Kayla: YAY!
Nick: O.O chill out.
Me: Duna, you're sitting the next one out.
Duna: *Sighs*
Nick: I get all the girls! *Then proceeds to be beaten up by both Duna and Kayla*
BEGIN!
"Somebody's watching us." Said one of the voices. All three began to search for me. I stayed frozen. My vivosaurs could easily do away with them, by the looks at least. However, quantity can overwhelm quality. Lord, as strong as he is, couldn't fight an army. Eventually, they ran off. I couldn't catch up, but I knew something was wrong. The one who sensed me sounded vaguely familiar...
The next morning...
"BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEE-" came an alarm clock. It's annoying and rather loud noise was cut off. For most, it would've signaled a new day for most of the fighters on the island. For one however, it did not. "Why do I always leave it at seven am...?" groaned Nick. "Because your lazy." came another voice. Nick immediately sat up from his laying position on the bed. "What the fu- Kayla! What are you doing in here!" I yelled. "I came to get you. The door was open, so I thought you were awake," she said. "How long have you been here?" I asked. "About half an hour." she replied. "Stalker..." I mumbled. She perked up at that comment, hearing it. "What'd you say?" she said. Raising an eyebrow. "Nothing, nothing! I said I needed to talk to my fried Chalker! That's it!" I said, trying to cover up my mistake. "I'll be out in a minute. Let me get dressed and ready. Meet me in the lobby?" I asked her. "Sure." she said, smirked and walk toward the elevator. As I got dressed, and ready for the day, I heard a news flash on the TV, which I left on. "Breaking news!" it chimed. "New criminal organization, dubbed, 'The Forgotten' has been recognized. As they rise to power, what are they planning to do!" said a female reporter. I scoffed at their story. "If they were a real threat, they wouldn't be sounding like that," I commented. Suddenly, the camera turned to the new chief of police on the island. "This is not a drill. These criminals are very serious. They are demanding that vivosaurs be released. Every month, they are threatening to take a major in fossil battler, and kill him or her. We are working as hard as we can to stop them, and I regret to inform you, that Joe Wildwest... Has passed..." My heart skipped a beat. Joe had helped me so much...and he was dead? Just like that? I looked at the TV, before turning it off, and walking out the door. After a short wait, I met Kayla in the lobby. She must've noticed my distraught state. "What's wrong?" She asked. "You know the owner of the other island, Ribular town and the ones surrounding it?" "Yeah, Joe Wildwest. I don't see why that's so import-," she began. But I cut her off. "Joe Wildwest is dead! He was a close friend of mine. He even saved me a few times! He was MURDERED!" I basically yelled at her. By the time I was finished, people all over the lobby were watching me. Except to them, it was a strange young man in a hood yelling at an attractive girl. "You know, you're just like Matthew sometimes. I didn't know that!" She said, and ran off. I tried catching her, but damn, she was fast! "Nice going, jerk." I heard someone say. My posture slumped, and I walked out of the hotels lobby. I walked down to the stadium, and just hung out around the lobby there. I couldn't go and fight, someone would figure me out if I did. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned. There stood Duna, in human form because of her disguise machine. She looked at me. Green meeting red. "I'm so sorry, Nick." She whispered. I hugged her. "Thanks, this means a lot." I said. "No problem. That's what friends are for." She said, I thought I heard her trip at the word friends, but I couldn't tell. She gave me a small smile, "What are we doing today?" She said, still looking at me. "Well, I thought about entering a tournament, I'll try my best to keep myself hidden, but it won't be easy," I said. "Nick, just wear a mask." She said, giving me a 'Did you seriously not think of that' face. I face-palmed at my own stupidity. "Blue and her wizard ideas." I said. "I am a more evolved species," She said smirking. "Shutup." I hissed. The problem was, I literally hissed when I said it. "Nick, what the heck was that?" she inquired. I blinked in surprise at myself. "What's happening to me?" I said to myself. "Well, I bet that having some of us in you are affecting that." I heard O-Raptor Fiend say. I preferred to just call him Fiend though. Ever since I evolved him, he was surrounded by a dark aura. Something was off about him. He reminded me of Cicero from Skyrim. (If you've got far enough into the dark brotherhood quest line to the point where you've gotten Shadowmere, you'll know what I mean.) Friendly at first, but a bit off, then, when you least expect it, he looses it. The sadistic way he fought at the point of when he cracks and goes insane, on the enemy or ally, was disturbing. I wasn't sure if it was because he was naturally disobedient, or mentally unstable. I guessed the later. As soon as I heard Fiend's voice I cringed. He didn't have an accent that I could tell, but he did sound like the average crazy torturer from a hotter movie, a better guess would be the Joker, a higher pitch than most males, but far creepier. "I guess have so many of US is affecting you..." his voice was starting to creep me out. However, I was saved by Lord, I could easily distinguish Fiend's higher voice from Lord's gruff one. "Okay, you've made your point. Why don't you go and train a little bit." Lord said. "I will go to train, goodbye, Nickolas..." He said. Then laughed. "Thanks for the save," I said to Lord. "No problem." Lord said. I felt him fade and the next thing I knew, Duna was waving her hand in front of my face. I blinked, and pushed her hand away. "You alright?" she said, "You zoned out a little there. You looked a bit creped out." She said in a caring tone. " It's, it's nothing." I said. She looked at me strangely for a moment before brushing it off. "So what kind of mask should I wear?" I said, trying to change the subject. "A full body one." she replied. It was my turn to look at her weirdly. "My disguising machine. You know, the only reason I look like a human right now and not a dinosaurian," she said flatly. "Riiiight..." I said, feeling stupid. "Follow me," she said. I complied, and she led me behind the stadium, and beamed us up to her ship. The same bright white light enveloped my vision as before, and before I knew it, I was in Duna's room. "So who do you wanna look like?" she asked me. "I dunno, a random person. Can't you just give me some clothes, like a hood and something to cover my face?" I suggested, not really wanting to look like someone else. She sighed, and threw me some dinosaurian clothing. Unlike her, Raptin, and Dynal's clothing, I got some Crome colored clothing. Its hood covered most of my head, and ended in a point that shadowed my eyes. It looked similar to the assassin hood from assassins' creed in shape. The pants were also different. They looked similar to jeans, except they were a couple shades darker that the crime hood. As soon as I put them on, Duna shook her head in approval, and handed me one last thing. It looked like a black bandanna. "Wrap this around your neck so that it covers your mouth and noes." she instructed. I did as she said, and found that it was easy to break in, and was also comfortable. "What is this made out of?" I inquired, my curiosity about the strange clothing getting the better of me. "It's actually a metal," Duna said. "It's an alloy, extremely light, but also very flexible. It morphs back into shape, like what you humans call a 'stress ball'. I don't know who invented it, but I know that only important people in the Dinosaurian Empire wear it." She explained. "Huh," I said. "It's an honor." I said and bowed. She laughed lightly at that little show. "Now if only us humans knew how to make the stuff..." I muttered. " You ready to go?" Duna asked me. "Sure, let's." Duna replied.
A few hours later...
"Here we have him! Let's all welcome the newest rising star! He's dark, mysterious, and he doesn't like to use his real name. Here's Red!" Ty Ranno yelled into the microphone in the announcer studio. The crowd in the seats erupted into cheering.
"Any idea what Red's team will be like, Ty?" said Trip Cera. "No idea, but rumors say he is strong. Let's hope he can take his opponent," said Ty. Nick walked put of the shadows of the stadium contender room. He took his spot on the stadium, and waited. "HERE'S JACKIE!" Trip yelled into the mike. "Now, Red will have to face his first opponent. Let's see how he does." Ty said. Down on the field, a referee was addressing the two. "Okay, I want a good clean fight. No cheating. Ready? Go!" The ref yelled, and ran to the sidelines. Jackie threw her medals into the field, and a Carcharodontosaurus, Spinax, and Kryptops materialized. I placed my hand on my chest, and I felt the fire symbol on it heat up. You can probably guess whom I chose. I placed my hand on the ground and the earth cracked slightly, red shined out and Lord materialized. "Whatsup." He said plainly. He was barely paying attention to his opponents. "Alright, so you want me to fight, sure. Who fir-Oof!" Lord said as the Carchar rammed him. "Okay, now it's personal!" Lord yelled. He gave a swift uppercut to the Carcha's head, knocking it upwards, then span to add momentum to his finisher. With his other arm, he raked the sabers on his wrists across the offending vivosaur's stomach. The creature cried out in pain before turning back into a medal. Lord them turned his attention to the Spinax and Kryptops. The Spinax lunged, and grabbed hold of Lord's shoulder. Using its strong jaws, it bit down as hard as it could. Lord grunted in pain, and decided to return the favor. He grabbed the Spinax's neck, and pried it's jaws off his body. The Kryptops also lunged, but was stopped before it could do any damage. Lord had lifted the Spinax up and pile drove it into the Kryptops, incapacitating them both, and sending them back to their medals. "Well I'll be a hairless babies left toe!" Trip said. "Red took down all three of Jackie's vivosaur's with one!" Ty said, both genuinely impressed and surprised. "Peace." Lord said, more to me than anyone else, than faded, and went back to me. Jackie came over, and congratulated me. "Congrats. Can I, at least know who you are?" She said. I shook my head no. "I'm sorry. But for now, It's nice to see you again." I said. Jackie tilted her head in confusion, shrugged, and walked away. Duna walked up to me and kissed his cheek. "The first step back to stardom is always the longest. Congratulation Nick..." She whispered to me and smiled. I had a big goofy grin at that and laughed. It was like I was starting all over again.
3rd person...
Nick had done well; he had taken his first step back to stardom. However, there was a man at the top of the stadium. Quietly observing. After a minute or so, he held up a walkie-talkie to his mouth. "New target acquired. Over." he said into it, and then pushed himself off the wall he was leaning on and walked out of view...
Okay, I need you; you, you, and I definitely need you to review. You tell me to do something, and I do it. You asked me if It was a Duna X Main character fanfic, and guess what I did? I started dropping hints. Review!
