Falling Forest
Arbo led the JTeens into the Falling Forest. It was nightfall and the scene seemed beautiful. However the place was crawling with Trolls carrying weapons of all types. And if that wasn't bad enough they were already cutting down every single tree in sight to find the acorn that held the Eternal Life source.
"I know Kaos is after the Eternal Life Source but cutting down an entire forest is cruel to both plants and animals." Cody said. "We need trees to filter out carbon dioxide and convert it into pure oxygen."
"That's right young Portal master." Arbo said, "We must stop those terrible Trolls from discovering the Eternal Life source."
"As well as cutting anymore trees down in the process," Chrissie said as she took the lead, "Let's go."
"We're right behind you Chrissie." Ice said as the Air JTeen summoned Trigger Happy and Drobot to aid them since they were in the Owl's Roost. Drobot easily blasted the Trolls with lasers firing from both his optics and his wings. Trigger Happy however blasted the trolls with his golden guns like an expert gunslinger.
"Perhaps we should give that guy a cowboy hat and send him to the old west." Ice said, seeing Trigger Happy in the zone, "He'd fit right in there."
"Yes he would but we'll talk about this later." Cody replied, "In the meantime the Eternal Life Source is waiting for us."
"And there's probably another boss fight as well." Chrissie said. "Like the last three times."
"I'm pretty sure this thing isn't going to become a giant golem and attack us." Hsi Wu waved off.
Soon they found themselves facing down the first of the big chainsaw machines.
"Any suggestions on how we destroy this thing?" Colleen asked.
"We could always let Drago and Ice blow it up with their fire power." Hsi Wu suggested.
"We're trying to save the environment Hsi Wu," Rose reminded, "besides that thing might start a forest fire if we hit the wrong spot."
"And I Seriously doubt that Water, Earth or Wind will be of much help here." Cody said ruling out the options of using the Water Earth and Air Sources.
"Leave it to us." Drobot said as he started firing lasers at the big chainsaw. "This machine won't stand a chance against lasers."
"When we're through with this thing," Trigger Happy added, "The trolls won't be able to salvage much of anything."
The Tech Dragon was firing lasers at the Chainsaw machine to try and destroy it while the gremlin turned his golden guns into a stationary golden machine gun firing rapid blasts at the chainsaw. Soon the Two Tech Skylanders had destroyed the big chainsaw to the point where the chainsaw malfunctioned and created a pathway for the heroes to progress.
"When in doubt," Sara said, "Rely on lasers and bullets."
The team all chuckled at that comment as they continued through the Owl's Roost Section making their way to the Eternal Life source. They ran into some trolls but they were no match for Colleen's new powers, Trigger Happy's guns or Drobot's Lasers.
The team ran into some Tech Spell Punks and more trolls but Chrissie and the two Tech Skylanders quickly made short work of them. Soon the team found themselves in the Pinecone's Landing where they found another giant chainsaw. Unfortunately Skylanders of the Life Element were stronger in that area as Drobot and Trigger Happy stated.
"Okay so we know that bullets and Rockets can destroy this thing but we also know that Skylanders of the Life Element are stronger in this zone." Drago said before asking, "Know any life Skylanders that can fire rockets or have enough fire power to blast this machine aside from Camo?"
"One," Rose said, "His name is Zook and he's a Bambooker."
"One question," Cody asked as he summoned Camo to help them out. "What is a Bambooker?"
"We'll show you." Sara said as she summoned Zook, "By the way he's a really good guy to tell the truth."
Zook looked like a forest folk with green skin and wild red hair. He stood on two legs and had a bazooka. He looked like an interesting fellow to say the least but he was friendly enough.
"Hello Zook, I'm Colleen and these are my friends," Colleen said taking the initiative to introduce herself as well as her friends. "Drago, Hsi Wu, Strikemaster Ice, Cody, Chrissie, and I'm sure you already know Rose and Sara."
"Greetings Colleen I'm Zook," Zook introduced, "Now I take it that you summed me since you need my help with something."
"Good to see you as well Zook now care to give me a hand with destroying this Chainsaw?" Camo asked as he was blasting said Chainsaw
"Let's lower da boom." Zook said joining Camo in blasting the big chainsaw. Cody helped out as well by summoning falling boulders to do massive damage. Soon the big chainsaw was destroyed and the heroes now had a pathway to continue on.
"All I can say is, Wow." Chrissie said seeing how powerful Zook was. "I wonder if the others are similar to him in attack pattern terms."
Rose and Sara shared a look that said they knew a Tech Skylander that had powers equal to Zook's and loved to blow stuff up. They also knew that this Skylander was going to be quite an interesting fellow once you got to meet him but for now they decided not to say anything to the others yet as they ran into yet another giant chainsaw machine.
"Ready to blow this thing up?" Ice asked.
"We're ready to do this." Camo said as he, Zook, Trigger Happy and Drobot all combined their powers and fired at the big chainsaw machine. Between the four Skylanders they easily got the job done.
"Well that was quick." Drobot said as they all walked up to the great stump.
"And Look there's the acorn." Hsi Wu said, "I can't believe how easy this was."
As if on cue Kaos' projection of his giant floating head appeared as soon as the Eternal Life Source revealed itself.
"You just had to ask didn't you." Camo groaned as soon as Kaos started to speak.
"You again?! Foolish Portal Master Imposters, WAIT! Portal-Posters. Yes I like the sound of that better," Kaos sneered before bellowing, "BUT you are still doomed. DOOMED I TELL YOU. You'll never possess the Eternal Life Source. NEVER!"
"Keep telling yourself that Kaos," Camo said, "We kicked your butt once and we'll do it again."
"You'll pay for that insolent comment Skylander," Kaos snapped, "And my evil life minion is going to make sure of that. Now I'll laugh while it both powerfully and evilly ends yours. Go on get on with it."
An evil version of Zook appeared and prepared to fire at the team. The JTeens dodged the blows left and right as they formulated a plan to attack the evil missile minion.
"Okay any ideas on how we stop this guy?" Colleen said as the team dodged the missiles being fired at them.
"I have a plan." Trigger Happy said, "We shoot at him."
"I'm with you on that one T man." Ice said as he and Trigger Happy fired their fireballs and Golden machine gun bullets at the evil life minion bringing it down within seconds.
"Okay forget the life minion! You won't beat this." Kaos bellowed, "BECAUSE – I – KAOS – SUMMON MY "UNBEATABLE DEADLY LIFE SPELL OF DEATH!""
Kaos then used the power of the Eternal Source to summon green orbs to float towards the group.
"This is his so called 'Unbeatable Life Spell?'" Hsi Wu laughed as he went to go poke one of the life orbs and by sheer stroke of luck it was the red part.
"Don't touch that." Cody called as the Sky Demon poked the red orb destroying it and the others in the process.
"Actually Hsi Wu has the right idea." Trigger Happy said as he shot at the red orbs while avoiding the green ones. The others all followed and avoided the orbs while blasting some of them as they all dodged them.
"Is that the best you got Kaos?" Rose taunted at Kaos' giant floating head.
"SO you can dodge a few things you can see. BIG DEAL!" Kaos' floating head bellowed, "What about thing you CAN'T!"
As if on cue a shadow version of Stealth Elf appeared ready to attack. The Evil Ninja Minion launched into attack but the heroes easily dodged it having experience from facing the Shadowkhan from their earlier adventure.
"BAH! That's alright. I have something even MORE EVIL in mind. More evil and unbeatable than ever before!" Kaos yelled before bellowing, "I SUMMON – MY 'TOTALLY UNBEATABLE DEADLY EVIL LIFE SPELL OF ULTIMATE DEATH! HA!"
On cue Kaos summoned his spell and the heroes dodged the green glowing orbs that began following them. The orbs came in different patterns this time and the attack seemed longer but they avoided and evaded each attack.
"WHAT!?" Kaos' bellowed. "You TOTALLY BEAT MY 'TOTA1LLY UNBEATABLE DEADLY EVIL LIFE SPELL OF ULTIMATE DEATH!' Er – I mean… Never mind!"
"Pretty much Kaos." Ice said, "Now surrender."
"Who? What? Where? Huh?" Kaos said confused before bellowing, "How dare you use blind luck against me KAOS!"
"Right keep telling yourself that Kaos." Drago said rolling his eyes at Kaos' attempt to keep control of the situation.
"Well even if it can't see you're luck's about to run out." Kaos bellowed, "Minion."
An evil version of what Stump Smash appeared and did battle against the heroes.
"Okay Rose, Sara," Chrissie said, "You never mentioned this guy what can he do."
"That's an evil version of Stump Smash." Rose said, "Stump Smash's attacks include using his stumpy hands as mallets and spouting out seeds."
"So basically we attack from a distance then." Cody said as he already teleported Zook back to the Ruins to rest as Chrissie sent Trigger Happy back to the Ruins to rest. "No problem. Camo and Drobot should handle this."
Camo and Drobot did indeed handle that by staying out of range of the evil life minion's attacks eventually defeating him using their primary attacks.
"Stupid deceitful trees! I hate em! I HATE 'EM!" Kaos bellowed, "Even the EVIL ONES."
"He hates his own evil tree minion?" Ice asked, "What's this dude's problem?"
"I don't know." Chrissie admitted, "And I'm the smart one here."
"Obviously I have SLIGHTLY underestimated you. It won't happen again…" Kaos said before bellowing, "I call upon my most powerful and evil Life Spell of all. So powerful, I dare not speak its name. I SUMMON - Curious aren't you. Well too bad Behold."
Kaos then summoned his most powerful life spell yet. The heroes had to avoid and evade attacks left and right. This spell seemed to go on longer than usual this time and sometimes they could destroy some of the red life orbs destroying some of the green orbs but they were on the defensive for quite a while. After nearly half an hour of doing this the life spell stopped.
"Oh you have GOT to be kidding me!" Kaos said before adding, "LIFE MINIONS! All at once! Make these imposters sorry they ever heard the glorious name of KAOS! Attack!"
All three of Kaos' Life Minions appeared on cue ready to beat down the Portal Masters. The team was pretty wiped out from all the fights so far but they managed to work in unison to defeat the minions."
"Fine Take the Eternal Life Source," Kaos yelled as soon as the heroes defeated his minions. "You'll never get to use it. Soon I'll make you pay for interfering in my plans."
The Team paid no attention to Kaos as Cody went to grab the Eternal Life Source but not before the Eternal Life Source granted Cody the power to summon plants, leaves, vines and understand threes.
"I fear the Darkness is spreading and the Core is not yet complete," Eon's voice said as the group was back at the ruins, "But now you bring the Eternal Life Source whose true power lies within."
The Eternal Life source summoned plants on either side of the core as well as vines that covered the interior. Everyone stood before the core as they all made comments about how the Core is coming.
"Now that's what I call a remarkable creation." Sara said.
"We're all remarkable creations." Arbo added.
"Some more than others," Flynn added referring to himself.
"Well in case you haven't noticed we still need four more Eternal Sources." Rose said.
"Rose is right." Hugo said as a platform opened an a robot in the form of a general appeared.
"Attention." The robot said, "Whose in charge here?"
"I'm in charge." Flynn said, "Of the ladies that is."
"Save it Flynn," Colleen sadi, "He's here for business."
"Ten four souldier." The robot said to Colleen. "I'm here looking for a Portal Master to help us."
"Well that would be us General Robot." Rose said as she and Sara walked forward.
"Rose and Sara long time no see you two. " General Robot said to the twins.
"You two know each other?" Chrissie asked confused.
"Of course we know each other." Sara said, "General Robot usually came visiting us on occasion to help him out with Tech Support."
"And I sometimes made repairs to him." Rose added, "But I take it that he's not here for his repair."
"I'm afraid not," General Robot spoke, "This time I'm here because military communication says that the trolls are keeping some kind of gear inside of their warehouse that may have originated from this loation."
"And what did this gear look like?" Ice asked.
"It was a large golden gear private," General replied, "Why do you ask?"
"Because that's the golden gear we need." Hugo said. "We need it to restore the Core of Light."
"I thought we were going to find another Eternal Source." Hsi Wu said. "How does this gear help us?"
"The Golden Gear is what will allow the Eternal Tech Source to function within the Core of Light." Rose said knowing the most about the Eternal Tech Source, "However the Eternal Tech Source will require two components first before we can go get it."
"But we'll tell you about them on the way," Sara said as the twins led the team to the platform where General Robot emerged. The team followed the twins into the hole before a cannon rose with all of them inside of it. On cue the Cannon shot them towards the location of the Troll Warehouse.
Next Time:
The team finds themselves in the Troll Warehouse where they meet up with a familiar face in their quest to retrieve the Golden Gear. And later Kaos plans something sinister in mind.
