The Warriors: Protectors of the Multiverse

Chapter 23

The gang was still locked up in prison but now it looks like they are about to escape as they have met with a hooded man who is going to help them

Here we go... the hooded man said

What? Jaster said

Um...what are you talking about? Punk said

Just watch. the hooded man said

They all turned around and saw two strange guards approaching the cell they were in

We apologize for the delay. the first guard said

The hooded man started walking as the guards then opened the door before the hooded could leave he turned to the gang

Would you like to come along? the hooded man said

What? Are you breaking out? Jaster said

This is unjust attention. There is no reason i should be in here. the hooded man said

Are you really going to help us? Sophitia said

Of course i mean you were innocent, too, weren't you? My pirate friends? the hooded man said

Pirates...? Hehe, so you knew? Simon said

Who the heck are you anyway? This doesn't feel right. Lilika said

Well, you can always stay here if you like. I'll make sure it's locked good and tight. the hooded man said

Hell no i wanna get the hell out of here. Punk said

I agree with Punk let's get out of this place. Simon said

All right, fine-we're coming, too. We won't get anywhere stuck in this place. Come on! Jaster said

Thank you hooded man. Hulk said

My name is not hooded man. the hooded man said

So who are you? Punk said

I'll tell you once we get out of here. the hooded man said

We better hurry though it's only a matter of time until Alekt notices we're missing. Batman said

Don't worry i'll go on ahead. I'll see you all soon. the hooded man said

Should we trust this guy? Punk said

Well he's trying to help us. Jaster said

I don't like him. Lilika said

Hulk think hooded man kinda weird. Hulk said

He may look weird but he's a good guy. Sophitia said

Focus everyone we need to get out of here. Batman said

Oh right come on guys. Jaster said

A few minutes later

The gang were walking inside the prison trying to find an exit before they could move any further they saw a gate they started to hear something

Huh? Lilika said

Please don't tell me a monster's going to come out? Punk said

No it's...something else. Lilika said

Before they realize what was going on they hear a voice

Uhh...help...me... a voice said

Lilika, what is it? Lilika said

Someone's in there. Lilika said

They try to figure out what was inside the gate until a monster came out of it

I knew it. I told you guys a monster was going to come out. Punk said

Wait! Sophitia said

What? Punk said

Isn't he just a human being? Sophitia said

Not anymore. Lilika said

So are we gonna fight it? Punk said

Yeah, we are. Jaster said

Perfect. Punk said

A few more minutes later

The monster was defeated by the gang

Man, that caught me by surprise! What the heck was that doin' here? Simon said

There was something strange about that beast... Lilika said

What do you mean? Batman said

I don't know but...it just seemed strange. Lilika said

Maybe it's just a coincidence. Punk said

Probably. Lilika said

We need to get moving. Batman said

Right. Let's go. Punk said

The others were now leaving except Jaster who took one last look at the gate before joining with them

Meanwhile

Something horrible was happening as if someone was being electrocuted

We can't go any higher, Mr. Rosencaster! Let's stop here! the first guard said

Keep going! One more jolt! Alekt said

The guard then added more pressure to the machine as the person inside kept screaming more and more until it was all over

Dammit! Not again! Bring in the next prisoner! Alekt said

But sir, in order to use any more prisoners, we'll need permission from the higher ups. the first guard said

Do you know who i am?! Alekt said

Yessir! You're the warden, sir! the first guard said

That's right, i'm the one in charge here. We don't need permission. I'll decide! Got it? Just do what i say. Now-bring the next prisoner! Alekt said

Right away, sir. the first guard said as he left to get the next prisoner

I'm never going to give up...we're too close there's no way i can give up now. Alekt said

Back to the gang

They were still inside the prison looking for the exit they inside a room and saw a giant monster which looked to be dead

Is this...the beast we fought on Rosa?! Jaster said

It's the salamander! Simon said

That thing again? What is it doing here? Punk said

I don't know. Jaster said

Shh! Someone's coming. Lilika said

They went to hide as the door opened and out came the same two guards from before

This really sucks, why did we have to get stuck cleaning up over here anyway? A cleaner robot'd get the job done in half the time. Henry said

Pah, you can't trust those things. I'm much better at cleaning than they are! Robert said

I guess you're 43 years of experience as a bachelor are good for something, huh! Hehe! Henry said

Robert then smacked him on the head

Shut up! Think that's a compliment? I happen to be touchy about that subject! Robert said

Henry was sweeping the floor while Robert started to relax for a bit

You know...Mr. Rosencaster's different somehow. He was never like this before. Robert said

Yeah...Mr. Rosencaster is too wound up in those experiments of his. It's borderline obsession if you ask me. I mean, they use to call the best officer ever. Everyone used to look up to him, he was such a great guy. I don't know what's happened to him. Henry said

I suppose it has something to do with Claudia... Robert said

Claudia? What do you mean? Henry said

Oh, never mind. I guess it's not for us rank-and-file guards to know. C'mon, let's get back to work! Robert said

As the guards were busy sweeping the floors the gang was still hiding

What do you want to do? Lilika said

Now's our chance. They're not lookin' our way. Simon said

Let's go...! Jaster said

Before they could leave Lilika stopped them

Wait! Lilika said

What is it? Sophitia said

Someone else is coming. Lilika said

The door opened and out came Norma and two guards

So this is what came out of that experiment? All that time and this is what we've ended up with? A big pile of garbage? Norma said

Who is she? Jaster said

I don't know but she looks hot. Punk said

Seriously? Jaster said

Sorry. Punk said

Take me to Rosencaster immediately. Norma said

Yes, Ma'am! the first guard said

The door opened again and out came Lobo

Hey don't forget about me. Lobo said

Oh right, Lobo. Norma said

Him again. Lilika said

Before Lilika could confront him Batman stopped her

Lilika now's not the time. Batman said

Oh...sorry. Lilika said

Were you just gonna leave without me? Lobo said

It was a mistake, honest. Norma said

Whatever...so are you gonna go on a date with me now or what? Lobo said

Not yet. Norma said

Okay, just let me know. Lobo said

I will...now let's go. Norma said

Sure. Lobo said

While Lobo and the guards while Norma turned around and looked at the experiment

What a colossal waste of money. We need a reorg here. Norma said as she now left

The gang then came out of their hiding spot

Well that was...something. Punk said

Who was that woman anyway? Sophitia said

Don't ask me i don't who she is but something tells me she isn't very friendly. Simon said

It doesn't matter who she is. I just want to get my hands on that Lobo guy. Lilika said

Lilika's right we need to get out of here and find Lobo. Batman said

I don't know who this Lobo guy is but shouldn't we be focusing as pirates right now? Simon said

We are...also btw Lobo is an enemy of ours. Punk said

Oh...i get it. Simon said

Come on guys let's go. Jaster said

Right! they all said

A lot of stuff is happening a man turns into a monster Alekt is electrocuting people and a salamander is being used as an experiment while the gang are still on their way out of Rosencaster prison stay tuned
