Hades

"RAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Team 3 was welcomed by the most unwelcome sight of Hades trying to strike them down. Luckily, they were all faster than they looked, but it didn't help the fact that debris was coming down everywhere. But while dodging, some remarkable, yet unexpected things happened.

While trying to dodge some debris, Jak and Nathan lost their footing and fell over the edge. Nathan managed to get a grip on the edge, but Jak was not so lucky. And to make matters worse, Nathan's grip was slipping. Nathan's search for another handhold was futile as he slipped. But just after he slipped, a cane shot out of nowhere and grabbed him, bringing him safely to the ground. Nathan could only stare in awe and confusion at the raccoon that he tried to beat before who just saved his life. But his questions would have to wait he quickly remembered another. "Those other guys! They fell over too! What about-" His words were quickly cut off at the sight of a Lombax and a robot flying above him carrying the previously falling Jak and Daxter. "Why did you save us?" He could only ask. "We were enemies. We fought. I thought you would be glad to see us gone." Sly turned at him and smiled. "I only went after you because you had something of mine. But we're on the same team now, and I don't think either of us trusts the prize being in the hands of any of the other teams. Especially Team 1." Ratchet landed to join the conversation. "He's right. And also, we're heroes, it's not our style to abandon people." Their talk was interrupted by a scream. They turned to see Fat Princess about to be squashed by falling rock. She quickly closed her eyes and tried to shield herself as she braced for impact. But no impact came. Fat Princess opened her eyes in confusion, to see Cole holding the rocks with a force barrier, and then smashing them with a shockwave. "Well thank you! You have much better manners than that ruffian who looks just like you!"

"Well it's nice to see you all made up!" Everyone turned to see Joel taking cover behind some rocks with Sora and Quark. "But it doesn't do us much good unless we get our target! This guy ain't it, and we can't keep dodging forever! Just where is our-"

"FEVER!"

Everyone, including Hades, turned to the source of the cry. The sight that greeted their eyes were little eyeballs with arms and legs, throwing spears at everybody. Though no one knew what they were, two things were clear: the Patapon were attacking, and they were the team's target.

First thing that was obvious was that all of Hades's attention was claimed by the Patapon, as most of their spears were landing on him, so most of the battle was now between Hades and the intruders. This provided the perfect opportunity for everyone to regroup and figure out their next move. Toro was panicking. "We can't attack! We could hurt Hades by accident!" Cole was able to calm him down while getting everyone's attention. "I've got an idea, but I need to know if you trust me, because if we can't trust each other, then it's not going to work." Fat Princess step forward. "I trust you! Let's hear this plan." Everyone was willing to listen, which made him hopeful for their success as he explained what he had brewing in his mind.

Hades was attacking Patapon left and right, showing no mercy when he heard a voice addressing him from behind. "There is no way I will let you attack those helpless little things!" Hades turned to see a muscular man wearing a green suit pointing at him. "So why do you wear that helmet? To hide how ugly you are?" Hades turned to see a raccoon with a cane mocking him. He attacked in a rage to only hit a decoy placed at the last second. Soon, more of these annoyances came from all around, toying with the lord of the Underworld. Try as he might, Hades was having trouble working around the combined teamwork of Sackboy's inventory, Sly's agility, Cole's blinding lightning, Toro's catlike reflexes, and Quark's boasting.

When the Patapon saw the God turn away, they saw their chance to defeat him. But they did not see the Keyblade, fireballs, and bullets heading at them. Two groups were taken out instantly. Before the Patapon could react, they were greeted by the sight of an Omniwrench and a barrel coming towards them. Ratchet and Nathan started the charge for the melee attack as Jak started sniping the targets left and right. Taken off guard, the Patapon could not properly defend themselves and were quickly taken out. The last were taken out by Joel and Fat Princess as the others joined up. "You know what?" Ratchet said, "We make a pretty good team." Everyone else nodded in agreement as a bright glow enveloped them all to take them to their next destination.

"Well they certainly got my bet for who's going to win." The Gamer leaned back in his chair smiling. "But I am still curious in how Team 4 is going to do."
