Phoenix runs through the streets of the doomgader's base "Where the hell are you, Edison!" he shouted as a bunch of doomgaders run into him "Hey! Stop before we kill you-!"
"Shut up" Phoenix said as he blasts them all away with his azure fire; they all flew high in the sky as they splat onto the ground on fire.
He runs into Mark "Mark! Have you found Edison yet!?" he asked.
"Does it look like it!?" Mark said as Dino and Rodrigo followed his tail.
Far back behind them is Xuanyu as he breathes heavily "Ughh!!" he shouted "Wait up!" he said as he falls to the ground next to Mark.
"Get up, Xuanyu" Phoenix commanded.
"Dude.. I haven't ran in so long!" Xuanyu drops his head on the ground.
They suddenly hear in a nearby building "Edison!!?" it was Chloe.
Phoenix turns around "Was that Chloe!?"
"Yes! Let's go!" Mark shouted as they ran to the entrance.
Rodrigo notices Xuanyu still on the floor and sighs. He runs and picks Xuanyu up "You're so weak"
"Shut up" Xuanyu replied.
Moments later they reached the same location inside the building, but Chloe and Edison were nowhere to be spotted.
"God damn it! We should've broken through the building's window!" Xuanyu shouted.
"That small ass window!?" Rodrigo pointed and looked at Xuanyu with a disappointed face "What!!?"
"Shut up, guys, I think they're in this basement" Mark said as he tries to open the door; it's locked.
RISE OF IZUZUNU
VOLUME 9, CHAPTER 108, ESCAPE OF THE CELL
DOOM BRIGADE PRIME BASE
Mark kicks the door opened and spots a few guards in sight of the hallways "Hey!" the doomgaders yelled out.
Mark and Phoenix uses their azure flames and takes them all out "Aah!!!" the guards yelled in pain.
They walk through the hallways and looked at a few cells there filled with prisoners as the prisoners run up to the cell "Please! Help us!!"
"Help us please!!" "Open the cell!!" they all began shouting.
They make it to another door at the end of the hall "What do you think is inside?" Xuanyu asked.
"Hopefully Edison" Mark answers.
"Alright, Dino, Rodrigo, Xuanyu, break open these prisoner's cells while we go find Edison through this door" Phoenix says as they listen "Yes!" except Xuanyu "Let me go with you guys"
Phoenix looked at him "Fine"
"Yes!" Xuanyu shouted as they break through the door and use their powers to kill every guard in sight.
"Chloe!?" Phoenix shouted as Chloe and Edison looked at them through the cell "Phoenix!! Hey!! Mark!!!!" Edison shouted out "Open!!"
Phoenix rushes toward them and breaks the cell doors opened "Come on!!"
Chloe and Edison escapes as Phoenix and Xuanyu throws bombs everywhere in the basement "Come on, go!! It's gonna explode!!"
They all run out the basement with the prisoners too as the basement explodes cracking some of the walls in the buildings.
George and Lilly runs into them "What the-!? Oh! Edison!" George shouted.
"Guys! We got Edison now! Hurry up with the plan!" Chloe shouted.
"Right!" Phoenix realizes "Everyone! Grab a hold of the bombs I told everyone to get if you find one!"
They all do as he says and each of them pulls out around 4-8 bombs "Got it!"
Phoenix smiles "Have fun" they all split apart and began throwing bombs everywhere in the buildiung.
Xuanyu and Chloe runs outside and kicks a few doomgaders and threw bombs in buildings to buildings as it explodes into debris.
The main large building began cracking everywhere as everyone runs out the building. They all turn around as they watch the building crumble and fall apart.
The building began crashes to the grounds, creating a lot of debris and smoke in the sky "Woah!"
"Hahah!!" Edison laughed out loud and smiled "That's what you get, dumb doomgaders!!"
"Edison!" everyone realizes and hugs Edison all at once "Oof! Haha! You guys! I missed you all!"
They all squeeze Edison "Hey! Hey! One at a time guys! I feel like Santa Claus on Christmas Day, my god!"
They all laughed "It's so good to have you back" Xuanyu smiled.
Cole watches the destruction of his throne building and gets pissed "Aaaaaah!!!! That's it!! I was going easy, now I'm done playing games!!" he shouted out loud as he presses a button on the walls of his base.
"You're letting them out?" a doomgader asks.
"Yeah" he smiles "All of them"
Around the base, cages opened, freeing all the kalruts and kalrhinos into the base.
"Guys.. what's happening.." Lilly asked.
"Okay guys, get ready to fight.. They're releasing everything they got" Phoenix says.
Suddenly, Cole tackles Phoenix down to the ground "Ah!"
"Phoenix!" Mark shouted out as Phoenix and Cole tumbles down a small hill. They laid apart from each other on the dead, yellow grass in a small little valley surrounded by the small hills. Its shape is like an arena, an arena built for this moment. The both boys stood up and had a short stare down until they charge at each other. The swords collide "If you want to live, send me your emperor!!" Cole shouted.
"He's dead!" Phoenix shouted while quickly dashing backwards. "How could you lie" Cole smiled, looking creepy "Tell me where your empire is"
"Never" Phoenix said. "Phoenix!!" George shouted, chasing them down, but then he stops as a kalkrut stood right in front of him "Hey" he grabs onto George and tries to punch him, but George dodges and releases his azure plas. "Hahahahaha!! I see you like to fight head on!!" The kalkrut laughs out loud "What is your name boy? I want to know my victims"
"George... George Khang!" George slams the sword onto the ground, creating a blue shockwave that goes through the kalkrut "This is fun!!" He shouted "My name is Eru Kradnoom, get ready for your fall"
Around the entire base of the Doom Brigade, every Izuzunian is being attacked by a specific kalkrut. The kalrhinos and kalruts surround the Izuzunians, now they have nowhere to run.
The sun gets covered by dark clouds; it looks as if it's about to start raining. Cole smiles "I am going to avenge my father's death and kill all the Izuzunians! All the humans!!"
"Why" Phoenix asked.
"Why, you ask? Do you want a little history lesson?" Cole added. Phoenix gets out of the fighting stance and stood there "Yes, tell me why humans are a big deal for kalkruts"
Cole stopped smiling and walks toward Phoenix "Back then... when the first humans arrived on this planet, they planted their nation at the center of the world; Midapeisios"
Midapeisios is a continent at the point Ocean which is in the middle of the map. Novishi is a human nation that has been built on the island. The humans were evil to the kalkruts because the humans enslaved them. The humans used the kalkruts and forced them to build structures and farm crops for them during all seasons, no matter how harsh it is. Piller, Cole's father, was in the middle of it.
He was taken by the humans and used to do hard labor starting at age 13. That's what Cole believed that happened because his father said so. His father would tell bad and harsh stories of his past to Cole.
In the present, Cole stopped talking "That's why... you're a big deal to me!!" He shouted and stabs Phoenix in the stomach; he didn't see that coming. "Aaah" he groaned as he grabs Cole by the throat and blasts him into the hill with his flames.
Phoenix charges his powers and unleashes them. The blue flames surround his entire body "The Izuzunians are nothing like the Novishians!! They're different!! They accept anyone no matter who they are, they accept you! Jun accepts you!! You messed with the wrong empire, Mr. Cole Kradnoom" Phoenix says.
Cole gets up from the mess and cleans himself from the dirt "Hah" he scoffs "We'll see how this will go" white flames surround his body. He's wearing an armor that also has fire, but Phoenix has never seen anything like this before, so he wonders if it's as strong as his fire.
"Let's see what you got, pal" Phoenix said.
THE GATES OF THE DOOM BRIGADE BASE
"Move!!" Xuanyu slices the kalrhinos in half "Aaaaah!!" While screaming. Edison runs behind Xuanyu for protection "Edison! You're gonna have to go without us!! Go get help or something!!" Xuanyu shouted.
"No! I'm not leaving without you guys!!" Edison shouted back, but Chloe jumps onto Edison in time to save his life from a kalkrut's sword. The kalkrut's name is Miles, as said on his armor. Chloe punches Edison on the shoulders "Go to the forest, now, you're in no shape of fighting and you don't even have a weapon, so hurry"
It took Edison a few seconds to act, but he ends up getting up and running through the forests "Shit, shit, shit!!"
Chloe turned around with Xuanyu and faces Miles "You both ready to die a painful death?" Miles laughed.
