The Warriors: Protectors of the Multiverse
Chapter 35
The gang was inside the ship heading to another planet but before that they were in a meeting with the captain of the ship Dorgengoa Steve and Simon explained to him that they found Dessert Claw who so happens to be Jaster Dorgengoa became furious after finding out that they couldn't find the real Dessert Claw and order his men to toss Jaster overboard but before they could do that Kisala yelled out to his father
Papa, wait! Jaster might not be Dessert Claw, but he's our friend. Please Papa, don't punish him! Kisala said
Wh-what? Dorgengoa said
Nice save. Punk said
Thanks. Kisala said
Kisala...why are you sticking up for this scurvy dog? Dorgengoa said
While you were taking a nap, Jaster was a tremendous help to us. A true pirate never forgets his obligations, right? Kisala said
That's right! And Mr. Rogue's strength is for real! Steve said
Cap'n, i guarantee without a shadow of a doubt it will be good to have Jaster around. We're beggin' ya! Let him stay in the crew, okay? Simon said
Aw, now YOU have to pour it on... Dorgengoa said
Humph. What a bunch of suckers. Zegram said
What did you say? Sophitia said
Nothing. Zegram said
Captain! Simon said
Dude come on let Jaster stay. Punk said
I can't hear myself think! SHUDDAAAAAAAP! Dorgengoa said
Dorgengoa yelled so loud that it made the whole ship shook
Scurvy dogs...exactly whose ship do you think this is?! Ya bunch of crybabies! Dorgengoa said
That was very loud. Sophitia said
You're telling me. Punk said
Jaster, was it? All right then, i'll give you another chance. Let's see if you can prove your usefulness. Dorgengoa said
Papa! Kisala said
That's our cap'n! Simon said
HOWEVER! If you screw up it's curtains for you! Ya got that, Jaster? Dorgengoa said
Y-yes, sir. I understand. What is it that you'd like me to do, captain? Jaster said
Hmm...but before that...all ya dogs, clean out yer ears and listen good! I'm gonna tell you of my top-secret plans that i've been keeping you in the dark about 'til now. Dorgengoa said
Really, captain? Simon said
Top-secret plans? Sophitia said
Hmm...well this should be entertaining. Zegram said
So you're finally going to tell us! It IS rather odd not even to tell your crew the reason for their voyage. Steve said
C'mon, Papa-out with it! Kisala said
Yeah, tell us these top-secret plans dude. Punk said
My ultimate goal is the legendary lost planet of Eden! Dorgengoa said
As soon as Dorgengoa said that everyone was shocked and surprised by this
Eden...? Zegram said
Wait hold on...your goal is to find a lost planet called Eden? Punk said
That's right. Dorgengoa said
Oh, i've heard of that. It's a phantom planet that vanished a long time ago. Kisala said
A phantom planet? Batman said curiously
No way is that true. Punk said
It is true, i read about it in a book. Kisala said
Yeah, and they say it holds enough treasure to allow anyone to rule the entire galaxy. Simon said
Rule the entire galaxy? Sophitia said
Yeah, that's the one! And they say that on that planet, there are people there that live forever. Kisala said
You're not telling me you really believe in all that hogwash, are ya? Simon said
I remember now! Eden suddenly vanished from our galaxy some ten thousand years ago. Supposedly they were even more advanced than Zerard. It is the utopia spoken of in legends throughout the galaxy. Steve said
You mean that old fairy tale? You can't honestly be serious... Zegram said
Shuddap! I'm dead serious! It'll take one hell of a mission to be able to find the path to Eden and actually make it there. And that's why i ordered you to scout out the very best hunters. In other words, we are going to strip Eden bare of all its spoils. Dorgengoa said
So we're looking for some sweet treasure right? Punk said
Yes, the galaxy's foremost treasures will be mine! Dorgengoa said
Called it. Punk said
Monsha! Dorgengoa said
A-Aye aye Cap'n! Deadlights on the screen, mates! Monsha said
Everyone turned around and looked at the screen
I take it you all know about the Geo Record? Dorgengoa said
Nope. The Warriors said
Wait you four never heard of the Geo Record? Dorgengoa said
They all except Batman shrugged
(Signs) okay let me explain. It's the galaxy's top adventure log, containing every kind of treasure. According to this, Eden has an undeniable tie to the Great Tablets. Dorgengoa said
Great Tablets? Jaster said
Ancient tablets-we've been looking for them for ages. I get it now. That's why you've been so obsessed with them. Kisala said
If my intuition is correct, the secret that will open the path to Eden is hidden on the Great Tablets. But before we can get to Eden, we've got to get our hot little hands on those tablets first. Dorgengoa said
If that's the case then where should we go first? Batman said
According to my sources, a huge ancient tablet was excavated from a mine on Vedan just the other day. Dorgengoa said
Really? Punk said
Yes, but i don't know if this is one of THE tablets, but it's certainly worth investigating. Dorgengoa said
The mines are controlled by the Zax Morarty family. Zegram said
Hulk don't understand. Who are the Zax Morarty family? Hulk said
A group of vicious thugs. And they aren't exactly pleasant to deal with. Zegram said
Listen up, Jaster! You're going down to Vedan to find out if that tablet is legit. Dorgengoa said
Aye-aye, Captain. Jaster said
Succeed and i'll permit you to stay. Dorgengoa said
Piece of cake. Punk said
Oh, that's great news, Jaster! I was a little nervous for a second there. Kisala said
We all were. Sophitia said
Thanks guys. But right now we need to find that tablet. Jaster said
Right. they all said
After the meeting was over they and everyone else went back to their rooms except Zegram who was still there
Heh...you're not gettin' soft on me, are ya? Zegram said
Didn't you noticed? Something's special about him. Of all the warriors i've come across in my life, this is only the second one that's given me this feeling. Dorgengoa said
Is that right? And who was the first guy? Zegram said
Dessert Claw-the real one, that is. Dorgengoa said as he went back to his room to sleep
Humph. Zegram said
A few minutes later
The ship was speeding across the galaxy and then was now in a different planet a planet known as Vedan after a few minutes in the air the ship landed
So this is Vedan. Jaster said
Over forty percent of the galaxy's metal ore and minerals are mined here on Vedan. The vast resources available here make it one of the top mining planets. Kisala said
Looks kind of dark. Jaster said
You took the words right out of my mouth. Punk said
Uh-huh. The sun never rises in this mining sector. This place is also known as the city of eternal night. Pretty romantic, don't you think, Jaster? Kisala said
City of eternal night...so where do we start? Jaster said
Well, we'll have to go to the mines if we want to check on this tablet. Most likely they only allow authorized people to enter. We should start off by heading into town and try to find a way into the mines. Kisala said
Then what are we waiting for? Let's go. Punk said
Yes, we shall go right now. Kisala said
Before they could go and head into town someone was calling out to them
Wait. a voice said
Huh? they all said
They all turned and saw Simon running up and approaching them
Thank god i caught up to you guys. Simon said
Simon what are you doing here? Kisala said
I have a special message from Captain Dorgengoa. Simon said
Dorgengoa? Jaster said
Papa? Kisala said
Yeah, the very same person. Simon said
Well what does he want? Punk said
Hold on i have it written down on a piece of paper that's somewhere inside my bag. Simon said
Simon then checked inside his bag and found the paper
Okay i got it. Simon said
What does it say? Sophitia said
Okay. (Clears his throat) "Dear Jaster, Kisala, and the Warriors i have a secret mission that i forgot to mention." Simon said as he read
A Secret mission? Punk said
"A secret mission that i need taken care of. I need two people that can handle this mission, i'll explain more once the two of you are inside." Signed Dorgengoa. Simon said as he finished reading
Wow, a secret mission? That sounds exciting. Kisala said
Yeah, but it says it needs two people for the job right? Jaster said
That's right. Simon said
Okay...which two of us wants to volunteer? Punk said
Everyone started to think until Batman and Sophitia raised their hands
We'll do it. they both said
Really? Jaster said
Yes. Batman said
Of course. Sophitia said
Are you sure you guys wanna do this? Punk said
Don't worry we can handle it. Batman said
Besides it sounds very important. Sophitia said
And while we do that you and Hulk go with Jaster and Kisala and find the tablet. Batman said
I guess that makes sense. Punk said
Great that's just what i need. Now come along let's go meet with the boss. Simon said
Simon along with Batman and Sophitia left and went inside the ship to speak with Dorgengoa
Well that's just great. Punk said
It's not so bad i mean...you got us right? Jaster said
Yeah, that's true. Punk said
Of course it's true and Hulk you like to smash right? Kisala said
Hulk do like to smash. Hulk said
So how about we work together for a little bit until your friends are back with you again. Deal? Kisala said
Deal. they both said
Excellent. Kisala said
So what are we supposed to do again? Punk said
We have to go into town, find a way into the mines, and find the tablet. Kisala said
Okay then let's go then. Punk said
Yes, let's. Kisala said
It looks like The Warriors have split up...but only for a short while Punk and Hulk are now traveling with Jaster and Kisala as they head into the city of Vedan to find the supposed tablet which Dorgengoa has doubts about it being legit stay tuned
