Episode 15: Tech! Smash! Tech!
-Core of Light, Ruined Citadel, Skylands-
Today at the Core or Light, a few Skylanders were there as Spyro and General Robot stood in the front. Tyson and Belle were there as well, and knew the reason for this meeting as Spyro started talking.
Spyro: Alright everyone, listen up! According to General Robot, the Trolls have the Eternal Tech Source hidden in their base. They're currently using it to create a few new weapons. That's why a few more Skylanders will be required for this job.
He then started to address the Skylanders he had chosen.
Spyro: Cynder and Sunburn, you two can infiltrate and cause some damage inside the enemies forces thanks to your powers.
Cynder and Sunburn looked at each other and nodded.
Spyro: Chop Chop and Ignitor will join the attack as they can handle multiple enemies.
Chop Chop and Ignitor had their arms crossed as they listened.
Spyro: Then finally the Tech Team; Boomer, Trigger Happy, Drill Sergeant, and Drobot. Once the enemies are distracted you guys will go after the Eternal Tech Source.
Trigger Happy: You can count on us, Spyro!
With everything now planned, General Robot approached Tyson and Belle, as they are needed to summon the Skylanders in the battlefield.
General Robot: Alright you two! It 's time to go!
Tyson: (Groans)...
The boy couldn't help but groan as this means he has to use the cannon again, while Belle was on the other hand excited. They went inside the hatch with General Robot, but since three people were going in it was more cramped than before.
Tyson: Having a little trouble breathing in here.
Belle: Well I don't mind the position we are in.
Tyson looked up and to his embarrassment he was pressed in front of Belle, as the two looked at each other eye to eye. She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him tighter.
Belle: You can hold me when you scream.
BOOM!
The cannon launched its three passengers in the air. Just like Belle told him, he held tight on her as he screamed.
Tyson: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!
-The Battlefield, Skylands-
Belle, Tyson, and the Skylanders arrived at the battlefield. The sound of battles and explosions are heard in the air. Up ahead they spotted Snuckles once again for the third time.
Belle: Hey, Snuckles!
Snuckles turned around and was very relieved to see the Skylanders.
Snuckles: Oh thank goodness you're here. I was just about to… Never mind. I'm not panicking. Well -kinda, but not really now that you're here.
Tyson: Snuckles, slap your face. That helps me calm down.
Belle gave Tyson a deadpanned look.
Belle: Really...
Snuckles: Come on, Snuckles. YOU can do this!
Snuckles did what Tyson told him as he slapped his cheeks, which did help calm him down.
Snuckles: Okay, the Trolls have overrun our defenses and our Command Team has been cut off! We have to get to them but we don't have much time!
Tyson and Belle turned to the Skylanders. Boomer, Drill Sergeant, Trigger Happy, Drobot, Sunburn, Cynder, Chop Chop, and Ignitor were ready.
Tyson: Well, time for us to begin!
Belle: You all know the role Spyro gave you?
The Skylanders nodded as they split up, with Sunburn vanishing in a flash of fire and Cynder turned into her own shadow.
At the open battlefield there were many types of Trolls standing guard and ready to fight. But none of them were ready for the two powerful swordsmen of the Skylanders as Ignitor and Chop Chop entered the scene.
The Trolls took notice of them and thought they'd have no problem dealing with them since they're just two. But Chop Chop and Ignitor aren't worried. Despite not having expressions… They were actually excited.
Ignitor: Fighting a huge army in low numbers is what every warrior dreams to do.
Chop Chop: So true...
The Trolls then began the attack as the Gun Snouts fired at them. Chop Chop brought up his shield which was covered in a blue aura, which now almost got back all of its power along with Chop Chop sword.
Ignitor hid behind Chop Chop as his shield took all the shots, not only holding but increasing its power as the aura turned purple.
After the shots were over the Trolls commandeering the Gun Snouts looked confused as to why that shield held on… until Chop Chop did an Arkeyan Spectral Shield, firing a purple beam from the shield that engulfed the legs of the mech and destroyed it, causing the tank and the Troll to fall down.
Chop Chop then charged and did a long leap before bringing his sword down the ground, unleashing his Bone Bramble. Big brambles made of bones that sprouted from the ground in a straight line and sent some of the Trolls flying.
The Trolls that are still standing surrounded Chop Chop and leaped at him to pile him up. But the old Arkeyan soldier was ready as he did his Arkeyan Combat Master. Spinning around with his sword and sending the Trolls flying again.
The other Gun Snout tried to aim at Chop Chop, but that was a mistake as he left himself open for Ignitor's Mega Slam. The raised burning blade came down and easily destroyed the machine's legs and sent it tumbling down.
The other Trolls charged at him, but then Ignitor stabbed his blade on the floor, unleashing a Flame Burst around him that pushed the Trolls back with an explosion of fire. Then he sent his Flame Form at the enemy.
As the fight was gathering the attention of the Trolls, at one of the posts a group of Trolls stood vigil. They have a cannon with them so if they spot an enemy they'll blast them with it… but then they were blasted themselves by the destructive explosion of fire from Sunburn's teleportation. He looked around until his eyes caught sight of a watchtower that has cannons as well.
Tyson, Belle, and the Tech Skylanders were moving on ahead while the other two Skylanders began to catch the enemy's attention. But then they had to hide once they saw the watchtower up ahead.
Luckily, Sunburn had an idea as he positioned the cannon and aimed at the watchtower, and with low firebreath fired the cannonball that hit the structure and sent them falling down.
The other Skylanders took notice of this.
Tyson: Let's go guys!
The Skylanders moved up ahead as Sunburn teleported again to another location.
Belle: With Ignitor and Chop Chop calling all the attention with their fight, and the two Dragons taking care of the defenses, we'll read the Eternal Tech Source in no time!
Cynder was currently doing the same thing as Sunburn did. Defeating Trolls and destroying a watchtower with one of their cannons.
But then behind her came a Troll that she missed. He had a monkey wrench in hand and swung it to hit the side of her head… only for it to go pass through as in that very moment her body turned to shadow for the wrench to pass through before turning back to normal.
Her head turned around and glared at the Troll who stepped back in fright.
Tyson, Belle, and the Tech Skylanders took out a few Trolls as they managed to find the Command Team, which is led by Rizzo as he turned to the Skylanders.
Rizzo: Ho there, Skylanders! You got here just in time!
Drobot moved ahead as he addressed the commander.
Drobot: WHAT'S YOUR CURRENT SITUATION?
Rizzo: We need to get past their barriers, but we aren't having any luck.
The Skylanders looked up ahead from their hiding spot and ahead was a big wall armed with turrets at their sides.
Tyson: We'll need a Mega Bomb for this one.
Rizzo: Well luckily, we've captured a Troll stockpile - and there's a Mega Bomb in it! Ha! Good for our side!
He pointed towards the sole Mega Bomb up ahead that's being guarded by a sole Mabu soldier.
Rizzo: Bad news is - it's too heavy for any of us to move. Me included. Too many years spent planting flowers I suppose.
Belle: Luckily we have the perfect Skylander for the jo…
Belle was stopped in her sentence as they all saw Boomer has already taking the Mega Bomb and was rolling it towards the wall… and having fun at the same time.
Tyson: Seem's he's way ahead of you, Belle.
Belle: But wait! The turrets!
Everyone now realized that Boomer forgot about the turrets as they were now aiming at him, but then…
BOOM!
BOOM!
Both turrets were destroyed by cannonballs. Tyson and Belle looked around and saw it was Sunburn and Cynder as they used the Trolls cannons again.
Tyson: Sunburn and Cynder!
Belle: Nice timing!
With the turrets out of the way, Boomer jumped and kicked the Mega Bomb.
Boomer: Bombs away!
The bomb hit the wall and caused a huge explosion. The others along with Sunburn and Cynder came to Boomer and saw the smoke cleared to show the path had been opened. Drobot then suddenly picked on something.
Drobot: MY SENSORS ARE PICKING SOMETHING. IT'S THE ETERNAL TECH SOURCE!
Cynder: Alright, let's go get it and…
Cynder stopped her sentence as the ground started to shake suddenly, and then something big came out of the smoke.
It was a tank that was larger than what the Trolls piloted. It has a carbine on the front and surely on the back as well, a missile launcher, and a turret. On top of the Tank were two Troll Grenadier's, ready to throw grenades at them.
Rizzo: OH NO! IT'S THEIR SECRET WEAPON! The Trolls must be using the Eternal Tech Source to power that thing!
The Super Troll Tanks stood in front of them as it started aiming its launcher.
Cynder: Scatter!
Cynder quickly grabbed Belle while Sunburn grabbed Tyson and they all flew in the air while the Tech Skylanders scattered right when the Tank fired a missile at them.
The Super Troll Tank quickly caused a lot of destruction as it fired its missiles at the Mabu Defense Force, forcing them to run away. The two Troll Grenadiers also began throwing grenades at the scattered Tech Skylanders. Each explosion nearly sent them flying. Tyson and Belle watched this happening on top of Cynder and Sunburn.
Belle: That machine is powerful!
Tyson: Let's get rid of the Trolls that are on top, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get close!
Going with his idea, Cynder and Sunburn unleashed their breath attacks on the unsuspecting Trolls, and they got sent flying off the Tank.
Belle: Now you guys!
The Tech Skylanders began their attack.
Drobot launched his Uranium Blade Gears, with the intent of slashing the Tank's defences. But to his surprise the Gears bounced off!
Drobot: WHAT?!
The Tank turned and started firing at him. Drobot activated his Hover Mode as the missile passed beneath him.
Boomer: My turn!
Boomer began throwing every bundle of dynamite he had, but no matter how many exploded it didn't even make a dent. Drill Sergeant and Trigger Happy fired their attacks, but not even their Drill Rockets or Golden Machine Gun had any effect as they bounced off.
Sunburn: What is that thing made off?!
Cynder: We have to find another way to stop it!
Drobot hovered beside them as he began analyzing the tank, until it caught sight of the energy tank.
Drobot: FOUND IT! THAT CANISTER IS FUELING THE TROLL SUPER THANK USING THE ETERNAL TECH SOURCE AS ITS ENERGY SOURCE. HOWEVER, IT'S MADE OF AN ALLOY THAT'S AS HARD AS THE TANK.
Cynder groaned at that.
Cynder: Great! How are we gonna bust that thing now?!
Both Tyson and Belle tried to think of a solution, until Belle had an idea.
Belle: Wait, Drobot, even though the tank is made of a special alloy, it can still be melted by a special kind of fire, correct?
Drobot thought about it and it was true. While the tank can even resist fire, magical fire can still affect them, however…
Drobot: WHILE IT'S CORRECT, IT WILL TAKE A LOT OF MAGIC FIRE IF WE WANT TO STOP THE TROLL'S SUPER TANK.
Tyson then realised what Belle was thinking.
Tyson: Wait! We don't have to melt the tank. We just have to weaken the canister! Enough for Drobot's blades to pierce through!
Hearing that, Drobot realized that that could work.
Sunburn: But where can we find magical fire anyway?
Everyone then eyed Sunburn, and the Hybrid knew what they were thinking.
The Tech Skylanders continued fighting the mech, until Drobot with Tyson riding on him called to them.
Tyson: Everyone, get back! There's gonna be a really big boom!
Hearing that, the Tech Skylanders retreated. Sunburn then teleported above the tank where the container is and unleashed his fire on it. Drobot hovered behind the tank as Sunburn's flames turned the canister bright red.
He and Tyson nodded as he teleported away.
Tyson: Now, Drobot!
Drobot fired his Uranium Bladegears at the canister, and was able to pierce it thanks to the metal being weakened by the magical fire. The result…
BOOM!
A loud explosion was made that can be heard from where Chop Chop and Ignitor are as they were sitting on a pile of defeated Trolls.
The smoke cleared to reveal the tank has been flipped over. The tank opened to reveal the Troll who was driving it. He was dizzy and was wearing a safety helmet.
Troll: Safety first…
The Troll then fainted.
Cynder, Sunburn, and Drobot landed as the Tech Skylanders approached the destroyed tank. Then Boomer popped behind the tank.
Boomer: Look what I found!
Carrying in his hands was the Eternal Tech Source. Inside there were golden gears floating there.
Belle: Now that's a mission success.
-The Core of Light, Ruined Citadel, Skylands-
Master Eon: The Eternal Tech Source. Embodiment of all science and reason. It balances magic within the Core of Light.
The Eternal Tech Source flew towards the Core of Light. It then turned into a golden sphere with glowing green highlights. Followed by another smaller one, they circled around the Core of Light and the gears and vines that are powered by the goo began to work, and the platform started to spin around.
Drobot: THE CORE OF LIGHT IS GETTING CLOSER AT FULL FUNCTION.
Spyro looked up and saw that nighttime had already set.
Spyro: I think we better go get some sleep. We'll continue searching for the next Eternal Source tomorrow.
Everyone agreed as they went inside to catch some Z's, with Tyson being happy that he wouldn't be going through the cannon again.
However, what they don't know is that down at the beach, a door that has never been opened, started to creak a little as it opened for the first time. And coming out of it, was a skeletal hand.
Ghost Roaster
Bio: There was a time when Ghost Roaster was neither a Ghost or a Roaster. Instead he was a Chef living in a village high in the mountains. One day, while clipping wool from a Sheep to use in a recipe, he accidentally fell into the Valley of the Undead and transformed into a Ghost eating Ghoul! After eating an entire spectral village, it's Ethereal Ruler chained Ghost Roaster to a spiked ball as punishment - it's rattle heard as he wanders the night, warning nearby Spirits. When Master Eon eventually heard of his predicament, he figured even a Ghost Eater could be useful. So he made Ghost Roaster a Skylander… after he promised to eat only evil Ghosts.
Wham-Shell
Bio: Wham-Shell was the long-standing King of a Kingdom deep in the oceans of Skylands that for a very long time lived peacefully. That is, until his underwater Utopia was invaded by a legion of oil-drilling Trolls that scattered his people to the wind. Armed with a powerful mace that had been handed down from one King to the next for generations, Wham-Shell defeated the greedy Trolls and drove them away. Soon after, he joined the Skylanders to help defend against this type of atrocity ever happening again.
