"So... you guys can see this as well?" Asked Ned as he looked around at the battlefield, with 10 golden statues layed on both sides, 10 plants and 11 Zombies, each varying with appearances.
"YES NED, for the last time yes, but it all looks so rad, maybe if Master Splinter lets me I can play." - MickyTurtle69
"You some Samurai?" - DarkBrooder34
"... Kinda." - MickyTurtle69
"Listen guys, I know it's weird but I'm getting hundreds of followers, plus I remember passing out, so maybe it's a mind thing like Metahumans." Ned said as he looked at the statues more clearly, and saw that each statue had a named ingrained onto it.
A Sunflower, then Peashooter, then Chomper, Night Cap, Cactus, Citron, Colonel Corn, Rose, Acorn, and finally Wildflower.
And on the other side, the Zombies looked just a bit more appealing. First to last in line was, Scientist, Foot Soldier, All Star, Wizard, Super Brainz, Imp, Electric Slide, Pirate, 80's Action Hero, Engineer and finally TV head.
Most were super weird to Ned and the audience but ultimately Ned chose Zombies, after all, it did have more selection, and he doesn't want to have no eyes like the Chomper.
"I choose Zombies." He said aloud as he chose on the screen before him, landing him ten deteriorated statues as the other ten illuminate. And he got another message.
[Choose your humble beginnings!]
[Scientist - you were studying for Dr. Zombies when you said brains too much too soon and he kicked you out to the front lines.]
[Foot Soldier - You are trained from being made in the factory to protect Zomburbia, when you just had to annoy Zomboss and was sent straight behind enemy (plant) territory for a secret solo mission (aka never return to Zomboss' sight)]
[All Star - You being the major Zomboss lead quarterback team when you lost. Against Plants... yeah Zomboss sent you to the front lines.]
[Wizard - after expirementing with remnants of the not-so-ancient Rainbow King Gnome and Wizard war -----
The list went on and on to the last Zombie, all including one name. Zomboss.
"Is he like... the main zombie, like zombie and boss?" Ned said aloud but people like MickyTurtle69 (specifically his brother), and DarkBrooder34 had long noticed the name.
"Alright I'm choosing Foot Soldier, one more Captain America game shouldn't hurt." He said as his comments grew horrid as Ned became the Foot Soldier, he sock one torn shoe, rugged yet fast and surprisingly stable movement especially with a... paint ball gun with Bullets.
"Whoa, I'm really a Zombie, I can even smell the bad breath!" Ned said as he didn't mind, in fact is new body felt attuned to it.
The scene then shifts to a rocky beach, lime D-Day surprisingly as a giant searchlight aka Sunflower ingrained into a Lighthouse looked around sad that the sun wasn't out.
<*Bzzt* R-*bzzt* -uit! It's me Dr. Zomboss, as punishment for foolishly shaming me, I sent you here, and I will only bring you back on one condition, destroy the lighthouse! Hahaha, hopefully the smart zombie syndrome doesn't go to waste.> said on Ned's system window when he said jerk as Dr. Zomboss cut off the connection before he could hear it.
"Okay... I seem to be able to do three things, with my mind that the game implanted into me, ooh sick three skills-"
"Wish to share with your bored audience Ned?" - DarkBrooder34
"OH! Yeah my bad, well I can throw a poisonous cloud of purple gas from my belt, only one at a time though as it's on cooldown and it said any attempts will have hands pass through, second one is rocket jump where I can activate my surprisingly working jetpack for a boost I height, and my ZPG, a giant missile that deals devastating damage with the longest cooldown, i can omly shoot it after bowing and shooting it from right above my Jetpack, and for some reason.it just appears." Ned explained as for some reason it all resonated with him, like, creepily well.
As Ned looked around more he saw a couple plants, no sorry, tens of plants everywhere. Apparently this lighthouse is important and he was sent to destroy it... ALONE?!
Ned knew that it was easy if anything. A tutorial wouldn't be this hard.
"O-okay wish me luck, I'm going in." Ned said nervously as he went up and sneaked around, finding plants like Chomper looking around.
"6th sense maybe? Or is there actual vision?" - MickyTurtle69
Ned looked at the comment and nodded, truth be told he was just about to head in front of the Chomper but nor knowing that it possibly could see or even sense him, he decided against it and sneaked further into the island.
As Ned closed in he was sneaking behind some Sunflowers when of course, he stepped on a branch and the Sunflowers who were just laughing noticed him and cried out.
"Ahhhhhh!"
"Ahhhhhh!"
Ned and the Sunflowers yelled as Bed started running and shot behind him, the Bullets hitting the Sunflowers with visible damage but not enough as they began planting their roots.
"Uhh, what are they doing?!" Ned said running forward as just before he made it into the lighthouse gates a yellow beam just grazed his skin, and although it didn't hurt he felt it
"Holy shi-" Ned was going to yell before he noticed many other yellow beams above him beaming at tye lighthouse entrance, and they were planning to collapse it a little.
"Ned use the jetpack after jumping forward like you're diving!" - DarkBrooder34
Ned following the advice dived forward, like he was gonna sink into the dirt but used his Jetpack, blasting a bunch of gas as he flew forward and into the lighthouse but before he could do anything alarms rang out and Ned looked at the stalk before him and threw a poison cloud, engulfing a bit of the giant sunflower as Ned also was shooting, and when other plants started coming in he was wondering what to do!?
"The rocket Ned! The Rocket!" - MickyTurtle69
Ned realized that he also had a rocket and bowed forward, and shot the Sunflower with the rocket, and it started a chain reaction, the Sunflower who had taken too much damage was falling down, debris flying as Ned looked for a way to escape, and he saw an opening and did the rocket jump again, barely making it out before more debris fell.
And before Ned could celebrate a giant robot came unto the island and looked at Ned before a drone came flying off it with a TV screen, showing Dr. Zomboss.
And after the drone flew back up another drone flew down, and crashed into the ground before rebuilding into a purple teleporter, sleek and with a stable swirling portal of purple energy.
"Alright into the unknown I guess?"
"Into the unknown." - MickyTurtle69
"Into the unknown." - DarkBrooder34
