Time for part 2 of the Two Makuta

Ember POV:

Out of all the desperate things I've ever done for the past 2,000 years since I joined, this was the most desperate moment ever. I've never been very good at manipulating my flames, I've been only able to do it only a few short times and wasn't under that much stress.

Until now

When I saw Wolf not moving, apparently from some intense pain, I made a quick dash to him. I managed to get between him and the massive giant and created a dome of fire. When he struck the dome, I could hear the hissing sound as the flames burned his hands and he recoiled while he screeched in pain. I took this opportunity and grabbed Wolf so I could move him somewhere safe.

When I finally get him to lean against some rocks and looked at the place where that leech had bit him since he was clutching it. I gasped at what I saw.

The bite glow a sickly green and it looked kind of bigger than last time. I had no idea what this meant but right now I knew that he had to stay out of the fight or else he won't last long. "Fist!" I yelled since he was still fighting. Fist heard my shout and retreated back to me and Wolf. "What's wrong with him?" He asked.

"I don't know but I have a pretty good guess it has to do with that bite mark." I replied as I looked at it. Several noises caught my attention soon and I turned to see all six Dark Hunters charging at us. "Wolf is vulnerable (I swore I heard a growl from him at that) if we leave him alone. Can you engage them while I stay here?"

Fist pounded his knuckles in response with a grin on his face. "No problem, just keep those fireballs going so I don't have too much trouble."

Than he lunged at them, attacking the one named Savage first. The brute swung his massive claws at Fist, but missed at Fist rolled underneath his legs. Fist delivered a punch to Savage's back and fired a bolt of energy from his brass knuckles, leaving a gaping hole in the Dark Hunter's chest as he fell to the ground.

"One Down!" Fist declared with pride as he turned towards the remaining Hunters. "Five to go!"

"Separate!" Tyrant shouted to the others. "Poison with me on the girl, Gladiator, Subterranean, deal with the other one. Try and go after the one who is wounded so they divide their concentration."

Well shit.

Blade POV:

"What the hell did you do?" I shouted as I fired a blast of fire and lighting at the two Makuta. Mutran and Chirox merely grinned as they took to the air, while Mutran's eyes stopped glowing and Chirox's eyes now were. They perched themselves on an edge above the pit.

"Now why should we tell you when we could have you continue guessing?" Chirox asked, laughing. "It makes the situation more fun."

I growled in anger and jumped into the air, where I concentrated on the atoms in the rocks behind them, causing them to explode, hitting the two Makutas in the back. Chirox managed to land on the ground while Mutran charged right me, his weapons raised.

I pulled out Storm Terror and our blades clashed, causing the room the shake due to the impact from our power.

Creating a small earthquake beneath us, I managed to get Mutran to topple over. I brought my sword down upon him, but he managed to grab his spear and once channeling his shadow energy into it, knocked my weapon out of my hand and sent me back a few feet.

Weaponless for the time moment, I had to resort in using my shield, Iron Shell, and go on the defense. Unfortunately it got more difficult because now Chirox decided to join the fight, flying in the air and shooting shadow bolts from his blades.

I dug through my pocket dimensional bag attached to the back of my armor for a certain weapon that I needed: The Elemental Blaster, or E Blaster for short.

Its appearance looks like a mix between a pistol and a shotgun only a little bit shorter. It can fire rounds of with a different element each one at a time. I rarely use it since I'm more skilled with a sword and close combat.

Butting my shield against Mutran knocking him back a bit, I opened fire on Chirox who was still in the air. All the bullets were sonic bullets, most of them missing but the sound they made while passing him stunned him greatly until he dropped to the ground.

I finally felt Storm Terror return to me, so I put away my shield and drew my sword and focused on Mutran. I fired an earthquake bullet from my E Blaster at his feet, causing him to lose his balance and allowing me to gain an advantage.

I kept slashing Storm Terror at him, its elemental energies giving it an extra boost in the attacks. Mutran was clearly starting to tire and I was about to bring down the killing blow when Chirox's blade came near my face.

Remembering that Chirox was the one doing… whatever it is their doing, I changed my strategy and decided to take him out first. So I did an uppercut punch on Mutran and sent him flying, than I pulled out E Blaster and before Chirox could react, fired an iron bullet at point blank range. The attack struck right in the face and sent him sprawling across the floor, blood flying everywhere.

With Mutran somewhere and Chirox dead I dashed towards the pit. Once I got there I created a sphere floating in mid-air. I gathered what I could get and once the sphere I drew E Blaster and aimed it at the pit. I knew that the Makuta would use the leeches to infect the Olympians, Demigods, mortals and anyone else on this planet. I figured they would have more of these somewhere on this planet, but at least this would slow them down.

I fired the most powerful bullet I had, a Void bullet, created by Chaos himself. The bullet struck the pit, causing a chain reaction within. The chamber started to shake and the ceiling started to collapse.

I was already running while I contacted Quaver, "Quaver, did you find our missing Vanguard?"

The Seeker replied, "Yes but I could use some help, this guy is heavy."

I rolled my eyes I headed towards his location. When I finally found him I saw why Quaver was having a hard time. The guy was twice my size and was held in suspended animation. There was just one thing that seemed so unreal.

The Minotaur was the Vanguard.

Ember POV:

I was trading fire with the one named Tyrant and Poison, the former shooting heated blasts at me while the latter was shooting venom. While I was doing that, Fist was taking on the other three, but I could tell he was struggling. The big one was able to counter his punches while the red one's attacks were mixed with fire, making it hard for Fist to attack without getting burned. And the ugly one… well it seemed that whatever he touched would just break apart.

Fist was soon cornered, with the rocks behind him and the Dark Hunters in front of him. But just as they were about to close in, a loud howl came out of nowhere and struck at them directly. They were all clutching their heads with their hands; especially the ugly one who looked like it was actually killing him.

It took me a second to realize that the howl was coming from Wolf, who was standing behind me and looked good as new. He kept up his attack until the ugly one finally fell to the ground, dead.

While the other two were still stunned Fist gave Wolf an annoyed smirk. "Ya all done with your nap pup?"

I think Wolf was about to say something back but it was stopped when the whole entire island began to shake, rocks starting to roll down. Than a hole exploded out of nowhere and flying out was Blade, with I'm guessing was our captured Vanguard. We gathered around him as he landed on the ground, looking a little sore but good.

Wolf was staring at the imprison person, as if he recognized him. "Hey this is…"

"No time to explain, this place is about to go boom!" Blade said as he started to surround us in an energy sphere.

The last thing I saw before we teleported was a massive explosion happening from inside the lair.

Third Person POV:

At least 4 miles away from the now destroyed island, was a cliff side that had a great view of the whole thing. Currently, resting on it were four tired and worn out Dark Hunters.

Tyrant looked at the destroyed scene with annoyance. "Damn, damn, damn. How are we going to explain this to the Shadow One?"

Than out of nowhere, a small explosion appeared at the tip of the rubble. Before the dust could clear something popped into the air and was coming right towards them.

It was Mutran, he had survived the explosion with almost no injuries. He landed right in front of the Dark Hunters with a very annoyed and angry face. While ignoring the Makuta's glare, Tyrant noticed there was something in his hand. It almost look like…

"Uh sir, is…is that Chirox's hand?" Firedracax asked, who had also spotted the object too. Mutran looked at it with a plain expression, as if it was normal to have the hand of a deceased brother for the Makuta.

"Why I have it is none of your concern." Snapped Mutran. "But what you should be concerned about is what kind of punishment you four will face for your failure."

Tyrant got mad at his threat. Not so much that he would see that all four of them would be punished, but that he would be punished for the other's incompetence. "Look how the hell were we suppose to know that four Vanguard were coming without no one telling us? And another thing…"

Tyrant soon realized that he could not talk, his mouth moved but no sound. Mutran smirked at his dilemma, pointing at his mask.

"One of the perks of wearing the Mask of Silence, shuts up people who are making excuses." Tyrant put his hands to ears wildly, as if trying to hear him. "Oh and making them deaf is a pretty good bonus too."

All of a sudden, completely out of nowhere, a blast of energy struck them. Its power sent Poison flying to the side and Tyrant over the edge of the cliff while stunning the last three. Following right after the blast, a huge being, who was almost the same height as Gladiator, appeared in the middle of them. He swung a massive weapon so fast at Firedracax and Gladiator, the latter being sliced in half in one clean cut and the former wounded and cast aside.

Mutran barely had any time to react when he was suddenly and roughly grabbed by the throat and slammed into a rock, with the hand still holding him. Despite that, the Makuta was finally able to get a good view of this powerful attacker.

Along with the description of him above, he was wearing impressive armor. It was a mix of gold with dark blue that was attached to his body very well. The weapon he carried was in fact a double bladed sword, with a blade on both ends. While one side was a smooth blade, the other side looked almost like teeth. But the thing that stuck out the most was the mask he wore. It was gold like his armor was and radiated energy.

After taking in his appearance, Mutran's eyes widen as he recognized his attacker. "You're…"

The mystery person tightened his hold on the Makuta's neck. "I'm asking the questions, go it?"

Yeah another chapter. Also I know some of you want me to work on the War of Trust and Deception story. Rest assured I am working on it, it's just taking me awhile because I haven't done it in a while that I had to reread some chapters to get an idea where I am.

Thanks
