Disclaimer: I do not own anything, expect the OCs. This is just a story for fun.
In the dungeon of Palace Posterior, Nemo and the other candy prisoners were sitting around their cell, when the doors opened up to reveal twenty Toadies and the Semitaur standing before them. Nemo glared at the guards, while the others eyed them nervously.
"Alright you lot, come along. The master needs you for his sacrifice for his special summoning." Said one of the Toadies.
The prisoners didn't move. The Toadies grumbled and began to march into the cell to get the prisoners. Nemo realized that this could be their only chance to escape. Now was a time for action. He turned to his fellow prisoners and spoke softly to them.
"We need to rush these guys and try to escape."
"Are you mad?! They'll kill us!" Hissed one of the prisoners.
"No I think they need us alive for the sacrifice." Whispered another prisoner.
"Look will be killed by whatever they intend to sacrifice us to. If we fight now we at least have a chance to escape. If one of us can escape, they can go get help." Said Nemo.
The other prisoners were forced to agree with Nemo's logic. The Toadies were fixing to start grabbing the prisoners and haul them up, when the prisoners sprung up with a wild yell and they changed at the Toadies. The guards were taken by surprise by this and few of them were quickly knocked to the ground by wild punches. Nemo delivered a punch to a startled guard knocking him down, before kicked another in the gut. He urged his fellow inmates forward towards the door. A couple prisoners fought their way alongside towards the door. The Semitaur saw them coming and stretched his arms out to intercept them. A lollipop person charged at the Semitaur, dodged it's arms, and dove between to the hall outside. The escapee was fixing to run to some stairs, but the Semitaur whirled around and grabbed the lollipop person's legs and started to drag him back. Nemo leaped onto the monster's back and began punching his head, while a peanut butter cup person began to bite the Semitaur's leg. The Semitaur let out an enraged roar at the biting of his leg and a punch in the eye from Nemo. The monster shook the candy person from his leg, yanked Nemo from his back and tossed him at a wall, and threw the lollipop person he held at the wall. The rest of the prisoners saw this and immediately surrendered to the guards. The Toadies rounded the prisoners up and marched out of the dungeon followed by the Semitaur.
From his cell Shane heard the sounds of the fight followed by the marching of feet as they left the dungeon. Shane began to think that perhaps it was high time to escape. He walked up to the cell door and began to pound on it. The door creaked and groaned as it began to give in a little under the onslaught. There was no sound of guards coming, so Shane began to hit the door harder. It would only be a matter of time before the door gave in.
Outside the castle walls a bunch of Toadies were on guard duty along with Fright Knight and Gamechild. Everything was peaceful, until two crystal boomerangs flew through the and struck down a couple of guards. The boomerangs returned to Reize, as he and Branka charged at the castle walls. Fright Knight took charge of the situation and began giving orders.
"Destroy the intruders and someone alert the master."
One guard gave a salute and quickly ran off to alert the master, while the other guards used their magic to levitate down to the ground to face the intrudes followed by Fright Knight and Gamechild.
"Who are you and why do you dare attack this place?" Asked Fright Knight as he pointed his sword at Reize and Branka.
"I am Branka the Solstice. I've come to destroy the evil of this place and cleanse the land." Said Branka.
"I'm Reize and I'm here to kick some evil butt!" Said Reize.
"You two shall not interfere with my master's plans. Destroy them!" Said Fright Knight.
The Toadies charged in firing magical blast of energy from their hands at the heroes. Branka deflected a couple of blast with her daggers and rushed at the guards slamming the hilts of her daggers into their heads and faces knocking them to the ground groaning. Reize did a sliding kick into one guard and leaped to his feet and tossed his boomerangs into a pair of guards knocking them to the ground groaning. Fright Knight watched a bunch of Toadies get beaten, before turning to Gamechild and signaled him to join the battle. Gamechild charged forward on his tentacles and fired a powerful laser at the two heroes. Both Branka and Reize were forced to leap to the sides to avoid the attack. Gamechild and the remaining Toadies pressed forward and began to attack the heroes, lighting up the sky and causing a commotion.
Off in the distance two groups saw the fighting going on. One group was King's squad lead by Jordan and General Rabbit and the other was the group made of wizard forces and Peace Protectors. Both groups were coming in from different directions, but they both saw the fighting and decided to go investigate it and see what was going on.
In the castle courtyard of the castle, Lord Moldy Butt was making some final preparations for his big summoning. Strapped to the side of his waist was a tiny magic bag with a great deal of space that held several magical items that he could equip to himself. Semitaur soon came marching in with a bunch of Toadies and the candy prisoners. They stood to the side as Skeeter and a few Toadies came out pushing carts piled high with food.
"Can you tell us what's going on?" Asked Nemo looking at Skeeter.
"Well the boss man is fixing to summon a big nasty hungry fella called Gargaroth the Devourer and to do that the boss needs a sacrifice, which I reckon you guys are supposed to be a part of along with all this food." Said Skeeter.
(Author's Note: Gargaroth is from The Amazing World of Gumball.)
"We're all going to die!" Sobbed one of the prisoners.
Kavaxas overheard this and turned to Moldy Butt.
"Are you mad?! You plan to summon Gargaroth the Devourer! That abomination is a destructive force of nature that will destroy the world!"
"Do not fret. I'm well aware of Gargaroth's destructive powers and I have a way to bargain with him. You see there are quit a few civilizations filled with beings, who are living food. I'll offer them up to Gargaroth to please his appetite and gain his allegiance." Explained Moldy Butt.
A Toady came running onto the scene and alerted Moldy Butt about the attack going on outside the wall. Moldy Butt sent Smoke Monster and Soul-Sucking Death Worm with the guard to go deal with the threat. Alria just silently stood by watching not sure what to do.
In the dungeon Shane smashed out of his cell. Shane was thinking about just escaping the palace, but he thought about Alria and he couldn't just leave the child here in this horrible place. The golem let out a sigh and ran out of the dungeon.
Back in the courtyard, Moldy Butt was chanting a summoning spell. The sky was filled with storm clouds and red lightning lite the sky. A huge section of ground began to crack and open revealing a harsh red fiery light. Everyone watched in stunned silence as a massive pitch black ball of slime rose from the hole. The monster had multiple arms and hands in every direction and multi eyes, ears, and mouths on every part of it's body. There was a pale white face with red eyes and a crooked mouth on one side of the monster's body.
The monster was Gargaroth.
He had arrived and he was hungry.
To be continued.
