"Wake up, sleepy head," said Zuma, slapping Ryder in the face. "Wake up."
Ryder woke up from his nightmare, finding himself on the couch, with his pups surrounding him.
"What happened?" ask Tracker, as Ryder rub his head.
"I had a nightmare about the last time we entered the Valley of Death," said Ryder.
"Even if we got find him," said Rubble. "How are we going to get there?"
Ryder pick up his phone and dial a number. "I know who to call," said Ryder.
Meanwhile, in the frame, Marshall and Rocky were training Chase 2's second platoon.
"Up two three four, up two three four!" yelled Marshall and Rocky as the platoon did the same.
Just then, Marshall's phone rang. "I have a call," said Marshall. "Go take it," said Rocky. "I got them."
Marshall walk away to take the call. When he answered it, he was surprise to hear Ryder's voice. But his smile quickly faded when Ryder told him the news. He shut his phone and ran off to get Luke.
He found him talking to Chase 3, who decided to pay a visit.
"Luke!" cried Marshall as he ran over to the two.
"What's wrong?" ask Chase 3 and Luke.
"Chase is trap in the Valley of Death," said Marshall, panting.
Luke's eyes nearly lost their color when Marshall said that. He quickly ran into his tent.
"What is the valley of death?" ask Chase 3. "The realm of nightmares," said Marshall, shaking.
Just then, Luke came out, holding some big guns.
"If we want to recuse him, we need the big guns," said Luke as he toss a gun at Chase 3 and Marshall.
"I'll go get Rocky," said Marshall as he ran back to get him.
"How do we get there?" Chase 3 ask as Luke dump some weird liquid on himself.
"You have to do a spell to get there," said Luke. "But many don't return for there fears get to them."
"Luckily I don't have fears," said Chase 3 as he loaded his plasma shotgun. "It will be easy for me."
"Everyone has fears," said Luke. "Some more dangerous then others."
After word spread around about Chase, a platoon leaded by Luke, Chase 3, Rocky and Marshall to go the Valley of Death.
"Are you ready for this," ask Luke to the platoon. The platoon howled Yes.
"Ok then," said Luke as he work his magic. Just then, a dark and creepy portal appeared.
"All in," said Chase 3 as he leap in the portal. The others followed suit and the portal disappeared.
The platoon appeared in a wasteland. In this group was Everest 2, Marshall, Rocky, Luke, Chase 3, Roader(in pup form) and his friend Aid(also in pup form).
"Alright, so how we find Chase?" ask Roader, looking around.
"Where he got capture last time," said Rocky. "The temple of Death."
The platoon move silently through the wasteland, making sure they weren't seen or followed by anything.
After a while of walking, they took a break behind a rock and Marshall use this time to call Ryder and the others.
"Hi Marshall," said Ryder. "How's your search going?"
"Long walk," said Marshall. "Luckily, no nightmareians."
(NOTE: NIGHTMAREIANS ARE THE CREATURES THAT LIVE IN THE VALLEY OF DEATH)
"Alright Marshall, good luck looking," said Ryder as he end the call.
Skye, meanwhile, was doing something she never tried before.
She was going to try to commutate with Chase with her mind.
It took a while, but she found Chase's signal and reach his mind to talk to him.
"Skye," said Chase, after noticing her. "Why are you here?"
"To get answers," said Skye. "Like who trap you back here?"
"Skye," said Chase. "I choose this myself."
Skye just stood there, taking in the information. Finally, she spoke.
"Why?" said Skye.
"To destroy Ghost," said Chase. "I had to bond with the chains again."
"We'll save you again," said Skye, pointing her head on Chase's. "See you soon."
Skye woke up back in reality. She had some work to do.
Back in the wasteland, the platoon was moving forward until Marshall stop them.
"What is it?" ask Aid, while Chase 3 tense up.
"Get down!" cried Marshall as a explosion rock the area they were in and send them flying.
Nightmareians started to climb down the cliff to kill them, with Chase 3 shooting them all.
The platoon struggle to hold off the attacking monsters when Roader got shoot by a arrow coated in black.
Marshall notice this and ran over to help Roader out.
After a while, the nightmareians had run off, while Marshall bandage up Roaders shoulder.
"This should help ease the pain," said Marshall as he give Roader some pills.
The platoon countied to walk to the temple when Roader begin acting strange.
"No!" cried Roader, throwing himself to the ground. Aid and Everest 2 didn't know what was going, but Marshall and Luke did.
"Look around," said Marshall. "One of those things is nearby."
Just as they did, a nightmareian jump out, trying to get Roader. But luckily for Roader, Marshall swung his axe, cutting it right in half.
Just like magic, Roader snap back into reality.
"That's the danger," said Luke. "They make your fears come to life."
Just then, Chase 3 took Marshall's axe and ran off with it.
"Hey!" yelled Marshall. "What are you doing?!" Chase 3 didn't responded. He just jump off the cliff.
The 5 ran to the cliff and saw something that made their jaws drop.
Chase 3 was killing a MASSIVE nightmareian, like it was easy. He manage to chop it's head off very quickly. By the time the other 5 got down their, he was covered in the nightmareian's blood.
"What?" said Chase 3 as he gave the axe back to Marshall. Marshall was just speechless.
"Nice," said Aid. The 6 countied to walk through the wasteland and their journey.
Meanwhile, back on Chase 666 was watching them through his crystal ball with glee.
"Is everything going to plan?" ask one of the generals, who just walk in.
"It's perfect," said Chase 666, letting out a evil laugh. "To the war planning room now."
Back in the prime universe, Ryder was worried for their lives, since Marshall hadn't return his calls. Little did he know his phone was smash in their battle with the nightmareians.
"He probity can't hear," said Skye, who was with him, with her puppies. "He might be fighting."
"Your right," said Ryder. "He is older now, he knows what he's doing."
Meanwhile in the wasteland, Chase 3 and Marshall were talking to each other.
"How did this mess started?" ask Chase 3, who was curious about their history.
"It started a long time ago," said Marshall as he begin his tale.
MARSHALL POV:
It was a normal day, five years ago. We had a mess up problem in Coastal City and we went their to fix it. But little did we know it will meet our demises.
It turn out that Lucifer, the king of the demons, wanted us dead and we fallen right into his trap. Me and Chase tried to stop him and we did, but at the cost of half our team and Ryder himself.
Chase lost it after that and after a fight with me and him, he took off. He lived a life of small theft and often got into fights with everyone he meant. That's when he meet Luke.
Luke offer him to get powers for him fixing his life around. He wanted revenge, so he took the deal. He then went on a murder rampage, killing all demons and even dropping Lucifer's fortress on New York.
"What happened after that?" ask Chase 3. Marshall countied the story.
But little did we know that he was going to evolve like crazy.
After he fought Silverclaw, he changed into his second form as a mutant and fought some more villains.
But even after that, he evolve AGAIN into his third form, as a dragonknight. That's when he meet Lady.
After he defeated the Undead Queen, he evolved into his form you see today, but he does have one more form.
"What form is that?" ask Chase 3.
"His god form, know as RealityBreaker," said Marshall. "That one hasn't happen yet."
"Are we there yet?" ask Aid. "I'm getting tired of walking."
"He's right," said Luke. "Let's stop here."
The platoon stop at a rock to rest and eat some candy bars they brought along.
Meanwhile, at the temple of death, Chase was sleeping, inside his thoughts when Death came walking in.
"Hello Chase," said Death. Chase didn't respond.
Annoyed, Death walk over to him and got in his face.
"I SAID HELLO!" yelled Death, but still Chase didn't respond.
Death decided to go closer and regretted as Chase was fake sleeping, pull out one of the chains and smash him in the face.
Death went flying across the temple room, smashing into the wall. When he got back up, he sniff some blood out of his nose.
"Little sneaker..." said Death as he was hit again by the other chain and now broke his nose.
Chase freed himself from the chains as he and Death pulled out their swords and charged at each other.
The fighting was so loud that when the platoon got closer, they heard it.
"Did you hear that?" ask Chase 3. He was listening for everything.
"It's at the temple," said Marshall. "Chase must be fighting someone!"
And after hearing this, the platoon ran to the temple, ready for the battle to come.
