San Francisco
There were no words, no exchange. There was nothing more that could be said. All of Team 4 knew that something was up, and they wanted to know what. They were going to finish this ASAP, and get to the information they seek. Unfortunately, they were currently trying to get away from an intense alien invasion force.
The Chimera were relentless in the hunt. Team 4 had to hoof it to avoid getting blasted. It was really bugging them that they were not seeing their target yet. They felt like the Gamer did this on purpose to annoy them. Isaac , Dan, Emmett, and Pyramid Head were at the lead when they heard a unison of cries behind them. They turned to see the others getting caught up with the surrounding ground by a strange tractor beam, tipping them off that it belonged to their target. Isaac was quick to yell. "Go ahead! We'll meet you shortly! And don't hesitate to attack even if we're not there!" A quick nod from Nariko reassured him that he was heard as he came up with a plan to get to them. "So Isaac, any ideas how to get there?" Isaac looked around when he saw something that might be useful. "We'll go in that." Dan's jaw would have dropped if he had one. "(Go up there in one of their ships?! Are you crazy? We'll just end up smashing it!)" Emmett and Pyramid Head just started walking forward, knowing they can't do any worse. Dan just held his head as he walked along.
"This is fun, Mr. B!" Big Daddy was more focused on keeping his balance as he rose with the others. After a while of ascent, they finally came to a stop. While some were wondering how they could breathe while in space, others were focused on a more peculiar sight.
"Is it just me, or have we seen that before?"
"You're right Knack, it's the same design as that robot's head."
"Someone's got an ego problem."
"He obviously lets his pride get the better of him. I will have no regrets bringing this down."
"But how do we do that?"
Before a plan could be made, a strange device came flying at them and started blasting energy spheres at them. Kutaro and Raiden got caught and were stunned for a few seconds. "It's some kind of sonic attack! Stay away!" Dante went on the offensive with his guns, but he was barely able to dent the Hypersonic Brainwave Scambler. "Why won't this thing go down - what are you doing Woodboy?" Kutaro ran to catch up and threw his pirate hook to latch on, going along with the ride. As soon as he was in range, he tossed some ninja bombs to disable it a little, leaving it dazed to finish it with a slam from the wrestler head. "Huh, guess that's one way to finish it."
They took a rest, waiting for the others and figuring out how to get over to Nefarious's space station, when the appearance of a Chimera ship brought them all to attention. They prepared for battle, expecting a fight, but Isaac was able to show that he was inside piloting. Using Kat's powers and Knack's size, they got everyone inside and went to destroy the space station. They knew better than to ask how they got this ship, knowing that they broke the rules once again. "So, masked one, what was your plan to destroy what lies before us." Isaac hesitated a little. "Actually, I don't have a good one. I couldn't figure out the weapons system on this, so my plan was just to set this on a collision course. We jump off on the ring surrounding it and hope for the best." Everyone looked at him like he finally lost it, but they knew they wanted it over with and prepared an evacuation plan.
Isaac was finishing up showing Raiden how to work the controls. As Raiden was the fastest, he would stay to make sure the ship hit its mark, and then quickly run before the moment of impact. When he was done, Isaac joined the others at the exit. Kat was going to float everyone down, then Isaac and Knack would land and catch everyone to ensure a safe landing. When the ring came close, they jumped. Kat had to draw forth every ounce of her strength in order to float down gently. The burden was lessened by Knack and Isaac dropping, but she still had a heavy load to deal with. Isaac and Knack quickly acted to catch everyone and bring them down. They were finishing up with Sir Dan and Kutaro when Kat gave out and fainted. "She's over the edge! Quick, Kutaro, give me your line!" While still being held by Knack, Kutaro threw his pirate hook. Isaac grabbed it and jumped over to Kat. He managed to grab her at the last second with his kinesis. "OK, I got her! Pull me up!" Knack pulled them both up, just in time for Isaac to come face to face with Raiden. "Wait, what are you doing here? What about the ship?" A huge explosion went off at where the main station was. "That answer your question?" They were luckily far away enough for none of the debris to hit them. "Anyway, it feels like it's time. We will see the Gamer, and force answers out of him no matter what it takes." The team nodded in unison as the glow came to take them back.
"Great, now all four teams are going for my head and secrets. It's just like they all forgot about the prize." The Gamer proceeded to prepare the battlefield for their return. "Looks like I'll have to remind them. Can't have the game be ruined, after all. But I do wonder, what will be stronger: their desire for answers, or their own personal desires?"
