Awesome Land II: The War of Four Kings

[Justice Bringer]

"Sir, we have just reported some enemy troops in the woods next to the clock tower" said captain Cody

"kill them all but take a prisoner so we can interogate him or her" said motevator666

the 501st went to the woods next to the clock tower and quickly killed all of the troops there exept for two they captured Rowlek, and Teharlu

Captain Cody walked up next to the two prisoners and said "the boss only needs one"
then he pulled out his blaster and shot Teharlu in the forhead

pointing at Rowlek, Captain Cody barked out an order "take him back to the FoEG" weve got other buisiness to attend to

[Duke Nukem]

Narrator was not happy about Awesome Land being sucked into the Null Void/Chrono Ridley.

"Alright, that's it. I don't like being assimilated into some villainous dragon thing. THE SHIT IS ON NOW. LET'S HUG IT OUT, BITCHES!" Narrator roared.

Narrator used his mighty boot to kick a hole in the inescapable dimension known as the Null Void.

"TAKE IT!"

Narrator left this new and impossible dimensional hole open for anyone else that wanted to escape or enter the Null Void after he stepped through it, showing up at the bottom of the Clock Tower.

"You coming Cha Cha? We should probably fight that bad guy." Narrator asked.

[Justice Bringer]

Captain Cody recieved a new mission, the 501st was to track down a certain dark quick thing that took out 2000 clone troopers

[Mizagium]

Shadow stopped in his tracks. He could feel the effects of the Null-Void on his being. He had to catch his breath

He notice his image begin to waver, it fizzled in and out. He swore and dug deeper into this powers to keep his disguise from fading.

[Sartorius]

Taenas and Walter, now inside the Time Keeper (that's really creepy) and RIDLEY, sat down with the remnants of their Dragon Riders in the hopes of finding a plan to defeat the monster and restore chaos to Awesome Land. One Dragon Rider happened to stay silent during their discussion; she was too busy sharpening her blade.

"There must be something we can do. If we are to regain control than this monster and his ruler must be stopped." said the emperor.

"Yes. That's absolutely right. But we already know that. We need to think of a way to stop him." said the Imperial Prince. In their heated discussion, both were completely unaware of the hole Narrator had created.

Meanwhile, Veralice and Dante resumed the search for the Vanity Mirror.

[Mizagium]

General Tamwyn and his men were unsure what just happened. The great Dragon thing that was in the sky was gone. A bright white flash had occurred and...

He tunred behind him to see Really Cool Land. It wasn't there. Instead a huge wall of whiteness blocked his way. He called for the rest of his troops and they worked out a plan...

[Duke Nukem]

Narrator cupped his hands and roared into the dimensional hole he created, "ATTENTION PEOPLE OF AWESOME LAND. I AM AWESOME. YOU MAY KNOW ME AS THE NARRATOR. I FIGURED YOU GUYS MIGHT WANT TO KNOW THAT I MADE THIS HANDY DIMENSIONAL HOLE OVER HERE IN CASE YOU GUYS WANT TO LEAVE THE NULL VOID. I'M JUST THAT COOL AND GENEROUS. THAT WILL BE ALL."

Narrator then turned to Cha Cha, waiting for him to follow him out of the dimensional rip.

[Mizagium]

CHRONO RIDLEY closed the hole right after Narrator dove through it. Narrator had noticed the hole beginning to seal itself.

He dove for it but was too slow. He was selaed out of Awesome Land.

[Sartorius]

To pass the time, one of Taenas' female soldiers began to record a song. She had brought several guitars instead of weapons and handed them to the most elite of the Dragon Riders. Automatically knowing the lyrics, they began to sing and play to the tune of Through the Fire and Flames.

Ohmigosh it's the Null Void
It will consume the whole world
It is fused with an evil ruler
and will eat the boys and girlz

OMFG We're all really screwed
Unless someone saves the day
I hate being in this dumb place
It's so extremely gay.

They continued to sing as Taenas and Walter stopped to listen.

[Mizagium]

Tamwyn and his troops decided they would move deeper into Awesome Land. They would find the Watsrobes and assist them in any way they can.

The ALW also told teh King where Johnny was currently...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shadow regained his composure. He stood up and followed the energy signature on the Vanity Mirror. He had t find it before Veralice did....

The sound of marching troops made him stop again. It was Motevator666's army. He swore again but decided to keep moving.

[Duke Nukem]

The ship Cha Cha and Narrator were on headed towards the location of the other Watsrobe's. A family reunion was in order. The two main characters planned on the way. (HINT HINT MICHAEL)

[Sartorius]

"We're going no place with this. You'd better think of something if we are to get that Mirror in time." Dante said to Veralice.

"I am the once great Veralice! Don't command me!" Veralice yelled back, although he promptly apologized as Dante was really his only ally. Hystoger began to flash as if telling Veralice something.

"Hmm...When I first laid hands upon the Mirror, it became corrupted...It's reflective properties absorbed some of my dark energy. I can recognize my own energy, so if I concentrate hard enough I should be able to find it. Let's go Dante!" Veralice yelled after realizing his foolishness all along. They followed Veralice's energy waves to find the Mirror.

Taenas and Walter continued listening to the power of rock from the Dragon Rider Band.

[Mizagium]

Boba Fett followed Veralice and Dante...

[Sartorius]

(Got it.)

"I feel the Mirror...It's not too far." Veralice told Dante. They were getting closer to the Vanity Mirror and consequently one of the Time Keeper's elite bounty hunters, Jango Fett, who wasn't stolen from Star Wars at all.

"We should only be a few feet away now. Soon I shall return to my former glory and Awesome Land will be restored." Veralice said. Dante looked at him questioningly but paid him no mind.

[Mizagium]

Boba could see his father, Jango now. He saw he had the Phantom and the Mirror wiht him as well.

Now was his time. He landed on the ground behind Veralice and fired a rocket at Dante who was thrown back 50 feet LOL!

Jango turned to see what was the cause of the noise and spotted his son.

the two of them turned on Veralice, blaster drawn...

[Sartorius]

Dante had been knocked unconscious from the rocket's impact, leaving Veralice alone to deal with the pair of hunters.

"Hmm? Why have you turned your weapons against me? Has someone hired you to do this?" Veralice asked. He remained calm and sheathed Hystoger for the time being.

[Mizagium]

"Yes. We were hired to deliver the Mirror and to kill you and Phantom." Boba informed him.

"Sorry." Jango said. "It's just business." He aimed his assult rifle at Veralice's head.

[Sartorius]

"Ah. Well, a bounty hunter must stay true to his employer. Answer me this, though: Who hired you to steal the Mirror and slay me and Phantom?" Veralice asked. He began to sway from side to side as if a mere leaf in the wind.

[Mizagium]

"A man in a red robe. What's it to ya?" Jango readied the rifle.

Boba turned and gathered Phantom and the Mirror. Ready to flee if he must.

[Sartorius]

"Oh, just wondering." Veralice said, still swaying from side to side.
~So the Time Keeper did this. I really am starting to dislike traitors.~ Veralice thought to himself.

"Don't take this personally, you two." Veralice said, stopping his movement entirely. "But I have to kill you." With those words he dashed forward at ridiculously magic assisted speeds. He kicked Jango's rifle into the air and fired a wave of energy with Hystoger, which he had unsheathed while talking. The wave hit the rifle and caused it to explode.

"Your turn." Veralice said with a smirk, though you couldn't see it due to the hooded robe covering it.

[Xero]

Xero awoke in the middle of the woods. What had happened? He remembered hearing a man say, "The boss only needs one," then a gunshot, then he was kicked in the head as Rowlek was dragged away. Then... nothing.

Xero had rejoined Rowlek and Teharlu in the woods after escaping from Time Keeper on the roof of the Clock Tower. He had heard the sound of thousands of footsteps. He had run into a thinner part of the woods to see the source of the footsteps and saw Motevator666's army approaching. he hurried back to the guerrilla army and called them to arms. He prepared to fight the largest battle he had ever been in.

The guerrilla army arrived and the battle began. The battle that ensued lasted only a few minutes. Xero, Rowlek, and Teharlu had fought back to back to back. But when Xero saw Cody in the back of the army, calling out commands, he left Rowlek and Teharlu to defend themselves while he went after Cody. The clone army was sure to fall apart without a commander. But before he could reach Cody, a clone had jumped out from behind a tree and had clubbed him in the head with a spear. He had blacked out, until the bodies had been piled together in order to search for survivors to be taken as prisoners. He had been passed off for dead, and, luckily, had been the last of the soldiers to be tossed into the pile of dead men, so he had not been crushed. Unfortunately, the pile being very disorderly, Xero ended up being on the ground on the edge of the pile and had ended up as the target for the many clones' rage. They kicked him as they passed, and the last one to leave had kicked him in the head, knocking him out cold as Cody shot Teharlu and dragged Rowlek off to his boss.

Xero now struggled to his feet and looked around. He listened carefully to the sounds of the woods. But there was nothing to be heard. The animals of Awesome Land had gone silent with their assimilation into the Null Void. Xero looked up and noticed that the sky was pitch black. What was this place? He rubbed the lump on his head and picked up his Ugly Stick and headed towards the port to Veraland.

[Duke Nukem]

Michael, that is an awesome idea. Let's go with that.

Go ahead and take the lead on that, because Cha Cha was basically captaining the ship.

[Xero]

Cha Cha smiled as he heard his brother playing his signature LOLPICCOLO C. Good ol' Xero. But his smile vanished suddenly as the entirety of Awesome Land seemed to disappear before his very eyes. Cha Cha ran to the wheel and grabbed it as a huge black hole engulfed Awesome Land. He spun the wheel hard to avoid falling into the black hole that led to the Null Dimension. He had never seen this kind of power before. He knew only Time Keeper could be responsible for this strange illusion. The Poltergeist creaked and groaned as it veered hard to the right. All of the water in the area was being sucked into the Null Void, pulling the Ausum Navy with it.

"RAISE SAILS!!!" Cha Cha ordered.

"But sir!" one of the men said. "What about the hail?"

"Nevermind the hail!" Cha Cha yelled, gripping the wheel so hard his knuckles turned white. "HOIST THE SAILS!!! TO OARS!! We need all the power we can get!!!"

Lacquer ran to raise the mainsail, then hurried below decks to join the other oarsmen. Salvatore sat in the back with an oar of his own, calling out the commands of, "HEAVE!! HO!!" over and over again.

The strong winds whipped the sails into action. The sails flew high and the oars dug hard against the current, pulling them into the Null Void.

Cha Cha looked back at the Null Void. The black hole slowly grew bigger and darker, more opaque, as they struggled to break free from the current. He glanced at where the Clock Tower had been and saw RIDLEY. But he looked even bigger and more powerful than he had when they had begun approaching Awesome Land. In fact, CHRONO RIDLEY was about an eighth of the size of Awesome Land.

Cha Cha yelped at the sight of the giant beast and called to one of the men, "Throw me a rope!" The man ran to the Captain's quarters and grabbed the last remaining rope that wasn't in use. He tossed the rope into the air. But the rope got caught in the wind and was thrown overboard.

"NO!" Cha Cha yelled as he watched the rope fall into the water and get sucked into the Null Void. "YOU!" he looked at the man who had thrown the rope. The man gulped, fearing the wrath of the Trumpet Hero. "Take the wheel!" The man was shocked by this strange order, but obliged by taking the wheel. Cha Cha ran below decks and took his position at a cannon. He looked out the small window and found CHRONO RIDLEY a little to the left. He ran back to the deck and yelled to the man at the wheel, "Ease her a little to port!!" The man moved the wheel ever so slightly to the left until Cha Cha called, "Hold!" He ran back below deck and returned to the cannon. He looked out the window. Perfect. CHRONO RIDLEY was right in front of him.

He dug through a bunch of crates and found two cannonballs and a chain. He wrapped the chain around the cannonballs, effectively making something similar to numchucks. He shoved the cannonballs into the cannon, grabbed a torch from the wall, lit the fuse, and stepped back. The cannon fired, shaking the entire ship. CHRONO RIDLEY turned to look at the ship at the sound. The cannonballs just barely reached the dragon, but they managed to wrap around CHRONO RIDLEY's legs sending the beast spiraling to the ground. CHRONO RIDLEY landed with a crash audible from the Poltergeist in an area of Awesome Land that wasn't consumed by the Null Void. Cha Cha congratulated himself on his impressive aim.

But his celebrating was short-lived. He had expected the Null Void to disappear. But the black hole remained, and the Ausum Navy was still being sucked into the Void by the current.

Cha Cha ran back above decks. He looked around anxiously. "Narrator!" he shouted at the man standing at the bow in the Captain's pose. "Can't you use some of your epic Narrator powers to get us out of this?"

[Xero]

Before Narrator could answer, the sea around them began to froth and foam. Waves pounded against the Poltergeist and huge tidal waves rose up, crashing down on the famous ship of the Phantom Regiment. Cha Cha was knocked to the floor by the force of the massive wave, causing him to hit his head on the deck. His head spun as he struggled to his feet. He turned to look away from the Void to where the waves were coming from. Suddenly, out of nowhere rose up the biggest wave he had ever seen. But this wave was strange. It didn't crash down on top of their ship: it crashed down right where it had risen up. And right where the wall of water had been now stood majestically a ship decked out in gold and silver all over. It was the flagship of the Special Royal Navy, bearing the image of a purple dome with an "S" in the middle. On it's side, painted in black letters, was the name Lauren. Where had Cha Cha heard that name before?

A telescope dropped from the crow's nest directly into Cha Cha's hands. He looked up to see Sergeant Strag, Lacquer's brother, peering down at him. The Sergeant smiled and waved, then returned to his lookout post.

Xero took the telescope and looked through it at the Lauren. Standing, or rather, sitting, next to the wheel, was the Queen of Special Land, still stuck in her throne. Cha Cha gagged at the detail he saw through the telescope and rushed to the side of the boat, leaning overboard. Some of the crew members looked at him and shook their heads.

"Poor rookie," one said. "Must be seasick."

"Aye," agreed the other, taking a swig of rum and handing it to his companion.

Cha Cha turned to the two sailors leaning idly against the mast. "You two!" he called.

"Aye, sir!" they said, drawing themselves up to their full height in an attempt to be serious, but failing miserably in their drunken state.

"Don't just stand there!" Cha Cha said. "Get up that rigging and patch up those sails! We're still in deep trouble here!"

"Aye aye, Cap'n," the two men said. They turned go find cloth to use to patch up the sails, but both of them turned toward each other and collided. They staggered back a few feet, not losing any levity in their predicament. They hurried off to find cloth, then proceeded to climb the rigging.

"On, second thought," said Cha Cha. "You two! Get back down here! Sergeant!" he called up to the crow's nest. Strag looked over the crows nest and down at Cha Cha. "Do you have something you can use to patch up these sails up there?"

"Aye, Cap'n, I do!" he called back. "You want I should patch up the mainstay?"

"Aye!" Cha Cha shouted. He turned back to the Lauren. All around her, many more frigates began to emerge from the water. The Special Royal Navy had come to help. He peered through his telescope again and saw Commodore Estdyn at the wheel. Then a thought hit him.

"Strag! Belay that last order!" he called up to the Sergeant. "Signal to the Lauren! Send her an SOS!"

"Aye aye!" Strag shouted. He took up his flags and made a series of signals to the Lauren. A few moments later, the Lauren signaled back. "Cap'n! They're coming to the rescue!"

Cha Cha looked back at the hundreds of frigates still rising up from the water.

"FULL FORWARD!!!!" he called to the oarsmen below decks. "Help is on the way!"

The oarsmen, invigorated with the hope of survival, renewed their efforts and began rowing harder and deeper than ever before. Now they were actually getting somewhere! Rather than sitting idly in the water, the Poltergeist was now moving slowly toward the Lauren as the Special Royal Navy's ships continued to move closer.

Just then, CHRONO RIDLEY, finally recovered from his fall, flew back into the air above the Null Void. Looking out into the ocean, CHRONO RIDLEY spotted the source of his pain: the hundreds of ships rising from the ocean behind his newly created black hole. Infuriated, CHRONO RIDLEY fired a blast of fire, ice, Void-ray, and LAZAH at the Special Royal Navy. The stream of fire engulfed the Conquistador, the Queen's most favored ship in the navy, next to the Lauren, in flames. The Ishikawa took a direct hit from RIDLEY's ice blast, freezing the ship entirely and causing it to sink into the depths. Luckily, the Void-ray failed to make contact with any of the ships, but the LAZAH managed to hit the mast of the Poltergeist. The mast crashed to the deck, crow's nest and all. Strag was thrown from the crow's nest and he fell into the ocean and was sucked into the dark hole. Lacquer had just come above decks to request relief from their tiring task of rowing. He tapped Cha Cha on the shoulder just when the LAZAH struck the mast. He watched in horror as his brother plummeted into the Null Void. He shuddered and fell to his knees, sobbing. Cha Cha put his hand on the Commander's shoulder. Lacquer just kept repeating, "No, no, no!" Cha Cha helped the sobbing Commander to his feet and helped him to the Captain's quarters where he helped to sit down on his bed. He left him there to mourn for his brother in private.

When Cha Cha returned to the main deck, the Lauren was only a few ship's lengths away. Cha Cha ordered the men around the fallen mast to push the mast over the edge so that it was hanging out towards the Lauren, creating a kind of bridge. Just then, Veralice's old parrot lighted down on Cha Cha's shoulder and squawked, "Krrraaawwwwkk!!! Long time, no see! Long time, no see!"

A lightbulb went off in Cha Cha's head and he called for some rope. Some of the soldiers took their swords to the rope that had tied the mainstay to the fallen mast and carried it to Cha Cha. He told them to tie the rope to the mast and set it up against the bow of the ship. He told a soldier with an impressive arm to sidle out onto the prow and throw the rope to the Lauren when they drew near enough.

The sailors scurried around the deck, hurry to complete their tasks. The black hole continued to grow bigger, and the current accelerated. They didn't have much time.

A few minutes later, the Lauren was only a coconut-laden swallow's flight away. The man with the rope carefully sat on the prow and slid out to the end. He threw the rope to the man standing in the bow of the Lauren waiting for the rope. The man caught it effortlessly, but the effort of the throw caused the thrower to unbalance on the prow, and he flipped over and lost his grip on the wooden pole. He fell into the water and was sucked into the Void, just like Strag.

Cha Cha made sure the mainmast was braced against the jib and signaled an OK to Commodore Estdyn. The Commodore saluted Cha Cha and steered the Lauren in the opposite direction. The man who caught the rope hurriedly tied the rope to the mast of the flagship and made sure it was secure. He, too, saluted Cha Cha, then headed below decks to help the oarsmen.

Pretty soon, hundreds of ships from the Royal Navy had surrounded them and were now attached by a web of ropes. With the combined strength of the men from all of the ships, the Special Royal Navy succeeded in breaking the Poltergeist free from the current that continued to suck the seas into the dark hole.

They sailed out to calmer seas. Cha Cha, Narrator, and Lacquer, who had recovered and stopped mourning, boarded the Lauren, as did the Captains of the other ships. They all met with the Queen and Commodore Estdyn in the mess hall, much larger than that of the Poltergeist, and discussed their next course of action.

[Mizagium]

CHRONO RIDLEY screamed again. He rose even higher into the air, beyond the reach of the Ausum cannons. He fired a Fire blast from his mouth and created a ring around him.

As a warning he fired a Void-ray at one of the smaller ships, trapping it in the Null-Void. He gave the Special Royal Navy his full attention...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

General Mycenae Corinth arrived with the remainder of the RCA forces. He was to catch up with General Scree Tamwyn. He reached the border of Really Cool Land and prepared to invade Awesome Land. But he was not prepared for what he was about to see.

Instead of Awesome Land, a huge expanse of white stretched out before him in all directions. Instead of the sun, a huge dragon hovered in the sky.

"General Tamwyn!" Mycenae called out. "General Tamwyn!" No answer. "Scree Tamwyn!" He called the general's first name in hopes he would get an answer. Still nothing. "This must be the Null-Void Johnny wrote of."

General Corinth's troops were becoming increasingly uneasy being so close the Null-Void.

"General," a soldier suggested, "Perhaps we shouldn't be too close to this place...it's supposed to be...dangerous..." Several other soldiers nodded in agreement.

General Corinth became angry. "Dangerous? Is that any way for a soldier of the RCA to talk!?" They fell back, ashamed. General Corinth let it slide; he was nervous too.

AS he watched CHRONO RIDLEY battle a naval force, he deduced from Johnny's description that Awesome Land was now WITHIN the great dragon. He stood up. "Alright men, we move out. We have to find a way into the beast!" The soldiers looked around nervously.

"H-How do we do that?"

"Only one man can help us now..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Johnny...

A voice echoed throughout Awesome Land.

Johnny. Cha Cha.
