Chapter 29 The Darkside of the Moon Part 5; The City of Death
Disclaimer; I don't even care at this point
Machinedramons City
The two Gearmon continued to watch the screens in front of them; they could see Sora and Thor running through the city streets with the Tankmon right on their heels. On another screen they saw Reno, Riku, Zidane, Terra, Dredd and Samus moving towards the city.
"Sir! More of the enemy are on the way to the city, there on the outside of Sector 7-B!" one of them said. "Then wouldn't it be a good idea to get all forces to converge on that area and prepare to attack?" said Machinedramon. "Consider it already done, my lord" said one while the other pressed a button that activated more Tankmon.
As they entered the city Terra and the others heard the chanting of the Tankmon and they took cover as they were bombarded by missiles. "What the hell are those things?" said Riku as he shot a Firaga at one, it combusted and exploded sending pieces of metal shrapnel everywhere.
"High Ex" said Dredd to his gun before he flipped over and shot a blast at on the Tankmon; it blew up and set off a chain reaction that destroyed several others. "Nice shot!" said Zidane as Dredd aimed his gun further up the street. "No time for praise cause here comes some more!" said Samus as more and more Tankmon started heading there way.
Zidane was carrying Maximus on his back and had taken cover behind an abandoned car while Terra blasted more Tankmon with her Firaga spells. Maximus groaned and then opened his eyes before leaping off Zidane and firing a blast upwards toward one of the serpent like creatures that had appeared behind them.
The monster roared in pain as Dredd and Samus spun round and wailed on it with plasma blasts and grenades until it collapsed and went still. "Megadramon" said Maximus as he knelt down next to the creature as Terra knelt down next to him. "You ok now" she said in concern, he stretched his arms and cracked his knuckles. "Yeah I'm fine" he said as he turned back to Zidane and Reno.
"What do you reckon?" shouted Zidane as they all ducked to avoid several energy blasts from several Chitari that landed next to the Tankmon. "Take this!" shouted Maximus as he fired a Final Flash at them, they were all disintegrated. The Tankmon backed off and fled, everyone breathed out a sigh of relief as they relaxed.
"They'll be back, right now we should decide what our plan is" said Zidane as Dredd reloaded and Samus switched her beam to the Wave Beam form. "Giygas is hidden inside that building" said Maximus and pointed to a large castle like structure on the other side of the city.
"Great, so we have to go through a city filled with an endless supply of killer death robots who want to blow our faces off and stop a genocidal mentally unstable monster that is so powerful that it destroyed its own mind with its incredible power, I'm I the only one who sees this plan failing, spectacularly?" said Reno as Maximus shot him an annoyed look.
"What? You scared" said Maximus as Reno grinned, "Nope I'm terrified but that just makes it even more interesting, all right I'll distract those tank dudes while you guys head for Giygas's layer" said Reno, he powered up to his Trance form and floated upwards.
"And Maximus" he said, his rival looked up at him and smirked "Yeah I know, rematch next time we meet, I promise" said Maximus, Reno gave him a fake salute and then flew off, "Come and get me you robot scum!" they heard him shout.
"We better find Sora and the others before we head to the Devils Machine" said Maximus, "Sora's here?" said Riku in surprise as he started looking around for his best friend. "Yeah, I can sense him and Kairi as well as Thor, it looks like their pretty close to the castle, let's head there now!" said Maximus.
Dredd ripped open a door of an abandoned car and sat in, he hotwired the car and started it up, "Where are you going?" said Zidane as Dredd loaded his gun, "Hunting" replied Dredd simply before he tore off down the street before turning and was out of sight.
"Well at least he's having fun" said Riku sarcastically as they stared running up the street in the direction of the castle. "I hope Star Lord and the others are ok" said Terra as she and Maximus flew above the others; they had left the Guardians inside the cave they had been resting in. "They were all still unconscious but they were still alive, the Guardians are tough. They'll be fine" said Maximus as he gave her a reassuring smile.
"You ok Garnet? You haven't said much" said Zidane as he ran next to Riku, "I'm fine Zidane, I'm just thinking that's all" she said calmly. "About what?" he said as he looked into the blade of the Orichalcon, "How exactly do you guys plan to beat Giygas?" she said frowning. Riku and Zidane stopped and shared a worried glance.
"Ummm" they both said and looked uncomfortable as their partners gave them frowns, "You do have a plan right Riku?" said Xion, Riku chuckled awkwardly, "Yeah of course I do babe" he said scratching the back of his head.
"Zidane?" said Garnet, even though he couldn't see her he imagined her putting her hand on her hips and frowning at him. "With all of us working together it will be a piece of cake; you got nothing to worry about Garnet. Everything will be fine" he said cheerfully before the two continued running.
ROS
The two Gearmon stood nervously as they watched the party split up, "Um sir! They appear to be splitting up and trying to flank out our troops, not to mention their incredibly strong our Tankmon are no match for them" one of them said.
Machinedramon stepped on him and crushed him beneath his feet. "Then bring out the heavy artillery, instruct all surviving Dalek and Chitari forces to converge on the group containing the Schism's and annihilate them" said Machinedramon as the surviving Gearmon cowered in fear.
"Right away my lord" he said as he pressed a red circle on the screen, "And while you're at it, tell Shockwave that they are entering his area, if he succeeds in destroying them, then I'll reward him greatly" said Machinedramon as Shockwave appeared on screen, "Having trouble apprehending these insects Machinedramon?" he said in a voice that could only be recognised in a tone of confidence.
"Know your place Shockwave, I'am one of the Dark Masters and I assure you I am more than perfectly capable of destroying these little maggots" said Machinedramon, "Not if I destroy them first" said Shockwave before he left the monitor.
High above the city a single Dalek ship remained, "Eighty five percent of Dalek battle fleet has been destroyed, Supreme Dalek has been terminated. Tactical retreat is advised!" said one Dalek as another looked towards it. "Daleks do not retreat from any battle" it said in anger. "Allied forces requesting Daleks assistance on planet surface" said another as it received the commands from Machinedramon.
"Daleks do not follow orders, send an attack squad down to the planet and exterminate all life forms, the Daleks are the supreme beings and we will use the Devils Machine to take over the universe and we shall finally become the supreme being of the universe!" the leader Dalek shouted.
Back down on the streets Riku and the others kept moving, they stopped when they saw a massive gathering of Tankmon and took cover behind an abandoned bus. "Shit, that's a lot of dudes" Zidane said to Maximus, "Well don't you sound excited" said Maximus sarcastically. Then they heard the Chitari shout out in alarm and when Maximus looked round he saw a squad of Daleks.
"Oh shit" he said as the Daleks looked at the Chitari, "All inferior creatures are to be exterminated!" the lead one said and opened fire on the Chitari, killing several. The Chitari opened fire on the Daleks but their blasts had no effect on the Daleks armour, the Daleks shot more and more of the Chitari.
"I thought they were allies" said Dredd as they watched the war between the Daleks and the Chitari break out, "The Daleks obey no-one, they were probably just trying to get close to the Devils Machine so they could use it for themselves" said Maximus. "Let's get going while their distracted" whispered Riku as they sneaked around behind the bus and dashed across the street and into a building on the other side.
They started running up the stairs, Riku looked out of the window and saw an explosion a few blocks away before he saw Dredd speeding away on a motorcycle with several Tankmon following him, he swevered round a corner and led the Tankmon away from the building. When they reach the highest floor Maximus looked out as if he was searching for something.
"There they are!" he shouted and pointed to the top of a small building to the right of where they were, on the rooftop Sora and Thor were fighting against several Chitari, Riku smashed the window and shouted out at Sora.
"Oi Sora!" he shouted but Sora couldn't hear him over the noise of the battle going on down on the streets below, Reno whizzed past the building while being followed by another Megadramon. The Riku felt the ground shake as the ground cracked open and the Driller appeared. It tunnelled its way down the street before stopping just outside the building; Shockwave appeared from the top and jumped off.
He charged his cannon before roaring and opening fire at the rooftop where Sora and Thor where, "No!" shouted Riku and he launched a fireball towards where Shockwave was, unfortunately all that did was alert Shockwave to where they were and he looked up to the building above him suspiciously.
"Oh shit" said Zidane as Shockwave said something to the Driller; it reeled up like a cobra before tunnelling it head straight through the building they were in. They all shouted in horror as the building started to shake and sway. "Why do these guys always get the good shit?!" shouted Riku as they ran away from the windows.
Samus aimed her Grabble beam at Riku, "Riku!" she shouted and fired the beam at him , he caught with his Way to the Dawn and swung it as hard as he could sending her flying out of the window, she flipped and landed on top of the roof of the adjacent building where Sora and Thor were.
"Who are you?!" shouted Sora as she shot all the remaining Chitari, "No time to explain just move!" she shouted as Shockwave turned his attention back to the Daleks and the Chitari. Sora, Thor and Samus jumped off the roof and onto another building, they crashed through the windows and ducked as Shockwave walked past.
The Driller kept tunnelling its way through the skyscraper that Riku, Maximus, Terra and Zidane were still in. Terra and Riku was holding onto a supporting column for dear life while Maximus and Zidane kept their balance and grinned to each other, "You thinking what I'm thinking?" said Maximus, Zidane nodded and spun his Orichalcon in his hand "Hell yeah!"
They both powered up to Trance and flew out of the window as the entire building began to collapse, "Maximus don't leave me!" Terra screamed as the top of the building fell and landed on top of the one in front of it, leaving it hanging loosely, the Driller tunnelled through and was only a few feet away from Terra and Riku, Riku jumped down to the stairs on the outside of the building beneath them.
Terra jumped after him and he caught her, they both backed up against the wall as the Driller reared its giant twisting head full of spinning drill like teeth towards them. Riku shot a fire ball down its throat and it roared in frustration as it prepared to charge right into them.
Up above the collapsed building, Maximus and Zidane had powered up to Trance, Zidane wrapped his tail around Maximus's leg and Maximus flipped so that he was in a horizontal position and Zidane was looking down to the building, then Maximus spun several times going faster and faster before Zidane let go and was sent flying down towards the Driller.
I'm coming for you!" he shouted as he put both of his arms forward and plummeted straight through the building, the Driller sent several of its tentacles flying his way but he dodged and with a scream of rage, he slammed straight through the monsters neck, severing it completely.
The head of the Driller fell down to the street and landed on top of several Daleks, Maximus yelled in joy as Shockwave shouted in anger. Shockwave aimed his cannon at Maximus and fired a cluster of missiles at him, Maximus dodged as many as he could but one caught him off guard and he was sent flying into another building.
"Max!" shouted Terra as Riku smashed the window behind them and jumped into the building, then he cut a hole through the floor and dropped down. Sora jumped in surprise as his best friend landed next to him.
"About time you guys made it!" shouted Sora as Terra jumped down after Riku, "Where everyone else?" he said as Zidane leapt in after them. "Maximus is dealing with Shockwave and I don't know where Iron Man or Cap are" said Riku.
"I think we might have to step in" said Samus as she saw Shockwave looking around for them with his fist clenched, "All right here the plan, Riku you and I stay here. Zidane you're the most mobile out of us so I need you to get Shockwaves attention so that he is in our line of fire, Sora you help him out", she then turned to Thor and noticed he was missing his brother.
"And you go find your brother" she said, he nodded "Be careful" he said before swinging his hammer like a helicopter and flying out of the building. Sora and Zidane ran downstairs, when they got to the doorway they saw several Daleks shooting at Shockwave, he was using an abandoned car like a shield while firing at them with his cannon.
"Let's move" said Zidane as they crouched down and walked next to some cars so that they weren't spotted. Then Zidane jumped up and landed on Shockwaves back, he stabbed his Orichalcon into the side of his head, Shockwave roared in annoyance and grabbed Zidane with his free hand and through him away, "Oh shit!" shouted Zidane as he crashed into a car, Sora leapt up and fired a fire ball into the back of Shockwaves head.
The blast went through the back of Shockwaves head blowing out several pieces of his mouth. Shockwave cried out in pain as he flailed around to try and grab Sora, he ducked and jumped off as Zidane ran forward and skidded down, he skidded between Shockwaves legs and shot an energy blast into Shockwaves chest causing him to lean towards the window where Riku and Samus are.
"Fire!" shouted Samus as she and Riku fired a blast straight towards his head, there was an explosion as Shockwaves eye popped out and hung loosely on a wire as he flailed around in pain. Then Terra looked up to see Maximus flying down towards them, he skidded across the street like he was on rollerblades, he smashed his way through several Daleks.
Shockwave fired a missile at him but Maximus flipped over him and charged towards him, he punched straight through Shockwaves side causing it to shatter, Shockwaves collapsed to his knees and he turned round slowly.
Maximus sucker punched him on the face before grabbing his eye, "You die now" Maximus said before he pulled out the eye, taking Shockwaves spine with it, before aiming at the Daleks with Shockwaves cannon. He fired a missile straight towards them and they were all destroyed in the blast, Shockwave collapsed and went still as Maximus jumped off and helped Zidane to his feet.
"Good job Sora" he said as he grinned at the brunette, Zidane scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment as Sora laughed, "Cheers, I did a lot better than Zidane did anyway" he said laughing. Riku, Terra and Samus joined them; Terra hugged Maximus while Riku shared a fist bump with Sora.
"Looks like the gang is all back together" said Sora grinning, just then they heard several thundering footsteps and they turned round to see Machinedramon glaring down at them, "You can't rely on scrap metal these days, you have to do everything yourself" he said in frustration as they pointed their weapons at him.
Then he pointed his cannons at him and they changed their minds "Fucking leg it mate!" shouted Maximus as they bolted inside a nearby building, "That's right scurry away, it makes the chase so much more fun, Giga Cannons!" he shouted before two giant blasts of energy shot out from the cannons, the entire street cracked open and the building collapsed into the ground.
The entire group fell screaming as Kairi, Xion, Garnet all transformed back into their human forms, "Sora!" screamed Kairi as she reached out to him as they kept falling into what looked like endless darkness. He held out his hand to her but they were too far apart, "Kairi" he shouted before he was gone, "Noooooooooooooooooo!" she screamed as she fell and fell until everything went black.
A/N Way to go for Machinedramon to survive this chapter as I was planning to kill him off but he's so awesome I decided to give him a little more screen time. Anyway so yeah Shockwaves dead, who's not dead yet? Wesker, Loki and Beezlemon are all that's left so yeah guess who will be showing up in the next chapter which will focus more on Reno and the Avengers.
