ADLER TERRITORY:
"We will be arriving at the foot of Mount Adler in 20 seconds," a guide's voice announced from Blaze's shoulder.
Blaze turned to command the rest of the 5000 Edgy Edge warriors behind him.
"Ready! Be on high alert! We are entering their terri..."
"Incoming FYBER-earth attack! Incoming FYBER-earth attack! Incoming FYBER-earth attack! Incoming FYBER-earth attack! " Multiple guides' voices announced repeatedly within the FYBER spiky dragon.
"What?!" Blaze exclaimed!
Just as the FYBER spiky dragon let out its earth-shattering roar, its blast was stopped mid-way by what looked like a steel plate.
"Drill through that plate!" Blaze ordered.
"Activate diamond! Drill formation! " all 1250 earth-major warriors yelled in sync.
The FYBER dragon's head suddenly morphed into a drill-shaped diamond that spun at incredible speed and rammed into the steel surface before it.
Suddenly, a large black metal spearhead shot out of the steel plate through the diamond drill, breaking it into pieces. As it broke through the ranks of the Edgy Edge warriors with lightning speed, other spearheads shot out of the huge, speedily extending shaft of the black spear.
"It broke through our diamond-hardbody? Could this be...?" Blaze thought while blocking one of the spearheads. His health bar was already yellow, below 50 percent.
Another huge spearhead rammed him in the gut and drove him upward through the ground. It broke out of the surface of the ground and sent the wailing wounded Blaze spinning and rocketing toward the clouds. Thousands of Edgy-Edge warriors burst out of the ground in like fashion. Just as Blaze was approaching Zero velocity, he was almost blinded by a flare of reflected light from a moving shiny object. He choked, gasped, clawed, kicked, and yelled,
"ACTIVATE DIAMOND! ACTIVATE DIAMOND!!" just as he noticed 50 metal-winged AOTL warriors approaching him from above at top speed.
About 20,000 feet above the ground, the special unit led by Abs bolted through the sky over the clouds. Himari's face was burring deep in Ari's mane as she held on tight, whimpering.
"I think I'm going to be sick," she mumbled through Ari's mane.
"PORKY, IF YOU PUKE IN MY MANE, I WILL DROP YOU." Ari responded.
"Meanie!" she yelled as she raised her head, but quickly shot back in again, shrieking.
May drew closer to Himari.
"Oh come on, Himari. You're missing the view. It's beautiful!" she said.
"Senpai. I take back what I said earlier. You're not normal!" Himari responded.
"Ouch. That hurt my feelings. And seriously, just call me May," May responded.
"How can you call this beautiful? This is a heart attack waiting to happen!" Himari yelled through Ari's mane.
"Then I should have been dead by now. Many times over. Just how old are you?" Abs cut in from the front.
"14! Too young to die!" Himari responded.
"Too young to talk about dying from a heart attack. Man up! Take this from a really old lady! And stop saying what you don't want!" Abs snapped back.
"I'm a girl! Girls don't man up! Please stop saying that!" Himari retorted.
"I already tried it, Himari. Old habits die hard, she says. And considering how old she is in real life, that must be a really old habit," May joined in again, almost whispering.
The curious Himari raised her head and gasped.
"How old are we talking here?" she whispered back.
"I don't think you're prepared for that answer," May responded.
"Yoooo... you mean, like really really old?" Himari asked.
"Depends on what exactly you mean by that," May replied.
"I know you two did not just start sipping tea," Abs interrupted again.
"You know we are Ma'am. And your age is the topic," May responded to Abs.
Himari gasped and frowned at May. May grinned in response.
"Himari, if you want to know my age that bad, why don't you fight me after this battle?" Abs asked Himari.
"I'll pass! Senpai, what have you done?" Himari responded
"I made you raise your head," May smirked
Himari drew in a sharp breath when she realized she had been tricked. But as she took quick glances, across the sky, her frown melted.
"Wow...it really is beautiful!" she gasped.
"See. I told you," May responded.
Just then, Ari, May, Elias, Archie, and Chibilamb stopped mid-air.
"Huh? Why are we stopping?" Himari asked.
She noticed Abs in front of them with her fist up.
"We're here," Abs announced.
Two fingers shot out of her fist and she dropped her hand, pointing then downward.
"HOLD ON TIGHT PORKY, WE'RE MAKING A SUPERHERO ENTRANCE," Ari grinned
"No, no, no, no, no nNOOOOOOOOOOOOO..." Himari's scream continued as all seven of them plummeted toward the ground.
Their explosive nosedives created enormous shockwaves that left gigantic holes in the clouds.
EDGY EDGE GUILD BASE:
A huge black building resembling a quartz cluster stood close to the edge of a towering cliff. Within this building, Noydale and the remaining 4999 Edgy Edge warriors stared at the radar on a large screen in utter disbelief. Several dots indicating their comrades at Mount Adler, started disappearing at an alarming rate.
"Damn..." Noydale thought with a frown.
Suddenly, a red light pierced through the curtain of hair that covered his right eye. Just as he looked up, several guides started announcing in succession,
"Invader alert! A team of 7 players approaching at high speed!"
"How did we not detect them earlier!" Noydale thought as the 4999 soldiers started cloaking themselves in FYBER.
"Stay calm! Be ready There are only 7 of them. There are clearly outnumbered. But do not let them outsmart you," Noydale commanded his warriors.
"Activate Diamond! Engage!" He yelled. They put out their hands in response, directing their FYBER towards the top of the building.
Thousands of sharp projectiles shot out of the roof of the building towards the team of seven that were now about 7000 feet above ground level
"Everyone else, behind me! Ari, you're up!" Abs yelled
"What?!!" Himari screamed.
"YEXXXXXXXX!! FINALLY!!!" Ari roared as he whipped out his cutlasses and clashed them together.
He then maneuvered to the front, switching places with Abs in the process. Just as Abs placed her hand on his back, Ari's swords turned jet-black. Then, with amazing speed that eluded the naked eye, Ari sliced through and deflected every single projectile that was shot at them. Himari hid her head in Ari's mane and screamed throughout the ordeal.
"BRING IT!" Ari roared.
Just then, a loud metallic roar thundered from below them. Ari gasped as he noticed a colossal black glistening warrior in spiky armor approaching them.
"Ok guys, let it rain! Chibilamb!" Abs called out.
Chibilamb nodded. As all six warriors unleashed their FYBER, Himari looked up and noticed dark clouds forming around them as they sped toward the black colossus.
"You come against us with swords, spears, javelin, and in large numbers. But in the name of Yeshua, WE WILL DEFEAT YOU!" Abs' suddenly amplified voice resounded through the open space as if it was blasting out of hundreds of loudspeakers.
In a flash of lightning, Abs and Chibilamb drove right through the head of the colossus, blasting it to bit. Ari drew in a deep breath while the FYBER attack brewing in the dark clouds reached its breaking point.
"Impossible..." Noydale whispered to himself within the building.
A mixture of a lion's roars and loud explosions could be heard coming from above the building. Suddenly a humongous severed arm of the black colossus came crashing through the base, instantly taking out a fifth of the Edgy Edge warriors and throwing the rest into a state of panic. Immediately, the entire building was covered in ice. Then, flaming projectiles started blasting through the ice and raining down on the Edgy Edge warriors within. Ice-spears and arrows soon followed through, pinning down the Noydale and the Edgy Edge warriors as they focussed their FYBER on defense. Instantly, six large round metal objects resembling origami spheres, also blasted into the building from above. The spheres unfolded into their previous forms as wings, revealing the six AOTL warriors in a superhero landing pose. Their metal wings collapsed behind them in a deafening sound like a sudden clash of thousand swords. Abs and Chibilamb locked eyes with Noydale. Chibilamb, who had been silent during their flight, suddenly spoke up.
"Finally, we meet," he said.
