The Warriors: Protectors of the Multiverse

Chapter 4

The Warriors Jaster and Simon and Steve were off chasing down the flying beast

By the way i don't think we've been introduced i'm Jaster. Jaster said to the Warriors

I'm CM Punk. Punk said

Batman. Batman said

I'm Sophitia. Sophitia said

Hulk. Hulk said

Weird names but okay. Jaster said

Really? This coming from a guy name Jaster? Punk said

Quit your yapping lads we're here. Simon said

They come across a huge gate

Is this it? Punk said

Yup the residential area's beyond here. Jaster said

Gosh, he's not a quiet fella, is he? Must be rather large as well... Simon said

You're not planning on having all of us go in there, are you? Steve said

You wanna fight him all by yourself? Jaster said

N-No! Not at all! That's crazy-totally reckless! Steve said

Y'know, Mr. Claw...I think you forfeit any points you earn if you, er, die. Simon said

Seriously? Sophitia said

I'm just saying. Simon said

Yeah yeah, let's go! Jaster said as he and the Warriors went on ahead

H-Hey, wait up! Steve said

Poor kid...We hardly knew 'im. Simon said as he and Steve went along with them

There it is. Jaster said

Once they entered they saw a giant salamander

You gotta be kidding me. Punk said

That is certainly a big monster, all right. Steve said

Hulk not scared of salamander. Hulk said

Are you positive about this, Mr. Claw? Simon said

Like i have a choice! Jaster said

So we're really doing this huh? Punk said

Apparently so. Sophitia said

Figures. Punk said

Careful everyone who knows what tricks it'll do. Batman said

Hulk still not scared. Hulk said

The group went to fight the giant salamander they first attacked the leg but then a piece of armor came off

Hang on! His foot-armor's off! Simon said

His foot-armor? Punk said

I get it now. That's a Mark VIII Salamander. Steve said

What does that mean? Sophitia said

It means if we manage to break the shackles on its legs, then the shield on its back will open up. Steve said

You think it'll work? Batman said

Of course i do now let's hurry up and break the other shackles. Steve said

Okay then let's break some shackles. Punk said

The group then decided to destroy all the foot-armor the salamander had since they already took out the first one

They took out the second one

Then the third one

And then the last one

The salamander was now completely vulnerable and then something exploded and what they saw was a heart

Hey! Look at that! That's gotta be his weak spot! Simon said

You mean the heart? Sophitia said

Yeah the heart. Simon said

Try attacking him there. Steve said

What? How am i supposed to do that? Jaster said

Jump on it's back and hack away! Batman said

Exactly isn't it obvious? Steve said

Are you nuts? There's no way! Jaster said

Hang on-i've got just the thing for this kind of situation. Simon said as he pulled out a laser gun

What's that? Jaster said

I'll tell you after i show you. Now watch this! Simon said

Simon then used his laser gun and shot four blue circles steps as they appeared on the salamander

What the-?! Jaster said

Whoa. Batman said

Wait so a laser gun that can shoot blue circle steps? Punk said

That's my Monography Shot. Whaddya reckon, ya like it? Jump on the back of those monography platforms and you can get up on the back of the beast. Simon said

Incredible. Batman said

Thanks. Anyway here you go big man. Why don't you take this for now. Simon said as he gave Jaster the Monography Shot gun. When the platform disappears, just shoot up another one. But remember, you must equip the Monography Shot first before you can use it! Simon said

Now is your chance. Go get him, Mr. Claw! Steve said

Excuse me? Punk said as he and the others were standing with their arms crossed

Oh right and you four as well. Steve said

While the Warriors were fighting the salamander Jaster jumped on the blue platforms and destroyed the salamander's weak spot

Guys i did it. Jaster said

Did you destroy the salamander's weak spot? Batman said

Yeah. Jaster said

Good then come and help us out. Punk said

Got it. Jaster said

They continued to fight the salamander but it wasn't enough

Did that do it? Jaster said

Nope, i'm afraid not. Simon said

You mean it's still not dead? Punk said

No it isn't. Simon said

But you're almost there. Is the battle recorder ready? That kind of beast'll net you heaps of points. Make sure you get it all on tape! Steve said

What, you mean this? Jaster said as he took out the battle recorder

Ohh, now THAT is a well-used recorder! Simon said

Great...so how does it work again? Punk said

It's easy use it to record your battle with the beast, and later on you can turn it in for points. Steve said

Wow that's cool. Punk said

Yes it is. Now finish off the beast by yourselves- after all, it's your prize! Steve said

All right. Then here goes. Jaster said as he went off to finish off the salamander

Its heart has stopped, but it's still being controlled by the power of the Rune. Destroy the Rune in its head! Steve said

Oh come on, like a legendary hunter needs your help! Simon said

Hmm... I get the feeling he sort of does. I wonder why? Is he really Desert Claw...? I suppose looks can be deceiving. Steve said

A real master doesn't need to show off. He may not look it, but he's got the goods! Simon said

They continued to fight the salamander again but this time they finished it off and it was defeated

Hooray! Haha! You did it! Steve said

That's our Desert Claw! You're the real deal! Simon said

You did it kid. Punk said

Thanks guys. Jaster said

While they were all celebrating their victory the masked man was watching from the distance

Just as i thought. His potential may be greater than my own. the masked man said

After he was done watching he soon left

Back to Jaster and the group

So listen, Mr. Claw, you got a real name or somethin'? Simon said

Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm Jaster. Jaster Rogue. Jaster said

Jaster, eh? Good. It's a bit weird to keep callin' you Desert Claw. So from now on, if it's all right with you, I'm just gonna call you Jaster. Okay? Simon said

Hey what about us? Punk said

Oh right who are you lads? Simon said

CM Punk. Punk said

Batman. Batman said

Sophitia. Sophitia said

Hulk. Hulk said

Now, let's get down to business. I'll be straight with you. Our boss says he wants to hire you. Would you come with us? Steve said

Hire me...what? Why me? Jaster said

Not just you, you and your friends as well. Steve said

But why? Jaster said

Good grief isn't it obvious? You're Desert Claw, the legendary bounty hunter! And our boss, well, he wants to be part of that. Let's just say he's scoutin' you all for our team. Simon said

These guys still think i'm someone named "Desert Claw." That means...HE must be Desert Claw. I had no idea he was such a big deal... Jaster said in his head while also seeing flashbacks of the masked man

What is it Jaster? You feelin' all right? Simon said

Ah, yeah, i'm fine... So who is it that wants to hire me and my friends, exactly? Jaster said

Our boss, Captain Dorgengoa. A pirate among pirates! Steve said

What?! Dorgengoa? The space pirate, Dorgengoa?! Jaster said

Who's Captain Dorgengoa? Punk said

He's a powerful and tough pirate. Jaster said

I take it you know who he is right? Batman said

Yeah i do but anyway you guys do space travel? Jaster said

Of course. We're big-time pirates- we travel all around the galaxy. I mean hunting has its moments, but tracking down immense treasure throughout the universe isn't half bad. Steve said

Me...up in space...Yeah, i can see that. Not half-bad at all. Jaster said

Our ship is hidden in the desert to the west of her. Why don't you meet up with us there? Steve said

In the desert...? Jaster said

Your ship is at the desert? Sophitia said

Well, y'know, we had a couple of minor issues... and we couldn't actually dock at the spaceport. But look, we'll head back to the ship first-you come meet us there before tomorrow mornin', all right? All right. Tada! Simon said as he and Steve left and went back to the ship

Hey, wait a minute! I haven't decided yet. Jaster said

Oh, you'll be there, all right. I can see it in your eyes-you were made for the pirate life! Simon said

Where is your ship? Batman said

To find our ship, you need to take the west gate and head straight over the desert. Please be sure to prepare for your journey before setting out. We'll be setting you later. Ta-ta! Steve said he and Simon have already left

So are you guys still with me? Jaster said

Yeah. Punk said

Yes. Batman said

Of course. Sophitia said

Hulk say yes. Hulk said

Okay then let's get ourselves rested and get ready for tomorrow. Jaster said

Right. they all said

It looks like the Warriors and Jaster agreed to join Simon and Steve to meet with their boss and go on a space adventure what will happen next? stay tuned
