Chapter 2: Forces of Darkness

[IOwnedYou]

IOY saw a piece of metal on his arm. "What the...?!" he felt his powers fade away. He collapsed. "...", he looked at them both... staring at him. " Tch.... You damned bastards...", he grabbed Smashbro by the throat and squeezed hard making his nails dig into his neck. He tripped Misami and crushed his arm with the metal thing onto her neck. "I'm not taking this bullsh*t", he rose and lifted Smashbro. He crushed him down onto the metal floor making a deep crater/dent. He looked at Misami and picked her up by her hair. "You little b*tch..."

[smashbro]

OOC: Iownedyou, you missed my posts i think

[Naked Snake II]

SAINT: Well..I'll say that even though I could have finished it quicker, I'll give you props on the barrier countering that attack.

NIGHTMARE: I....I guess I'll take that as a compliment.

SAINT: Whatever. Let's go quickly.

Nightmare walked towards Geno, picked him up and punched it in the gut. And continued to beat Geno's unconcious body up getting Saint's attention.

SAINT: What are you doing?

NIGHTMARE: I never leave a job not finished.

SAINT: Restrain yourself, he's had enough. Nightmare!!! listen to me!!!

Nightmare dropped the body.

NIGHTMARE: Your lucky she's here and I got a mission as it is...The next time Geno, you won't be so lucky.

[Kitt eh]

Lynx tilted his head, "Well, I don't about the 'serve' part. But I will fight as a friend... just for this cause though." he said a bit stern, crossing his arms.

Stubborn today aren't we? Akki said. Hmph... Lynx growled. Grumpy to... Akki said. Akki, shut up...
Lynx said angrily. And hot headed also. Akki said snickering. ... Lynx just sighed.

[The King Of Darkness]

Zero made his way to the lobby of SSS HQ and Lynx followed him. Lynx shot a few glances at Zero trying to figure out what he was thinking but remained silent. Zero was deep in thought.

Zero: ( This meeting had better be worth my time. I could be off training and becoming stronger so I can crush anyone who challenges me! Then i'll hunt you down Nightmare and i will make you pay for what you've done.)

Zero and Lynx remained silent as they entered the SSS HQ Lobby together.

Zero: Hmph... so i guess we're here.

[supersonicblast06]

{SSS HQ}
{Rev}

Rev watched Zero and Lynx walk off toward the lobby he pushed off the wall with his foot and uncrossed his arms following distantly while staying within his own mind he thought mentally to himself, what exactly is this SSS place all about? And who is that scientist? And who is Smashbro?

[The King Of Darkness]

Zero warped over to Rev and spoke.

Zero: Alright listen up you science freak. After the annoucment meet me in the training room and we'll finish our little sparing match. GOT IT?! AND YOU BETTER SHOW OR ILL COME FIND YOU!

Zero left and went back into the SSS HQ Lobby.

[Rorschach]

Souryaku had a dream....It was exactly like what happened to him before in the black alley...except this time valentine got her throat slit...Sour woke up and looked at the note...

"Forever Forest" it said

Sour looked at it for a while

Sour: Stop the fighter

LGN: what?

Sour: STOP THE FIGHTER

LGN then stopped the fighter and Sour got out. He didnt bother even looking back because he wanted to look cool...until he tripped and fell

Wow, how did the note change....whats goin on... Sour walked for hours with is staff until he eventually saw trees...He assumed that this was an ordinary forest but he went anyway.

Sour was walking through thinking about the person that killed valentine until he noticed....hes in the same place as before.

Sour: Im guessing this is a maze then.

Sour walked all around and the area was getting darker the more Sour walked...Just then a beat ran to Sour and attacked him. Sour countered by jabbing his staff through the beasts head and continued walking..it was getting even darker and Sour started getting worried... but then he saw a puppet laying on the floor.

Sour:Wow that thing is in horrible condition

Sour picked up the puppet and looked at it...the puppet opened its eyes....

Sour: AHHHHHHH

puppet: AAHHHH NIGHTMARE

Sour: whos nightmare and WHO ARE YOU

puppet: Im Geno, and PUT ME DOWN

Sour put Geno down.

Geno: Im guessing your lost?

Sour: Im not.....ok maybe a little.......ya extremely lost

Geno: well I need to get to SSS HQ and warn the other about Nightmare and Saint but since im not strong enough I need you to come with me to protect me.

Sour: Well I was supposed to go to this SSS HQ anywayz so i guess im going with you.

Geno: OK this way

Geno and Sour walked until they eventually saw light...Sour and Geno looked around.

Sour: Ive been wondering for a while, whos nightmare?

Geno: We dont have time to talk about this right now.

Sour: Ok

Sour and Geno continue walking hoping to get to SSS HQ before Saint and Nightmare

[The King Of Darkness]

Sour continue to carry Geno on his back but Geno knew they wouldnt make it time. Geno did remember something. Geno intructed Sour to go to the tree with red leaves a carved X and only three branches. Geno pulled on a branch revealing a secret passage tunnel.

Geno: Cmon!...... If we...... go through........ here well be...... at SSS HQ..... in no time!

They walked down the steps into a long underground tunnel. It was just one long tunnel and nothing complex. They continued till they saw a light. They exited the tunnel to see daylight again. Right before there eyes was the SSS HQ theyve heard so much about. They walked towards it not seeing any sign of Nightmare or Saint. The approached the building and walked inside. They looked around as the saw the builing for the first time.

Sour: So this is the SSS HQ?

Geno's injurys became worse.

Geno: Hurry......... we must......... warn whoever is......... in charge of....... this place and fast. I dont....... know how much.... longer ill last.

They made their way to a large lobby where a cat like creature and a man with black hair and blue armor were standing. Sour came rushing in.

Sour: MOVE ASIDE! MOVE ASIDE! WE GOT AN INJURY HERE!

Zero: HEY WATCH WHERE THE H*LL YOUR GOING YOU LITTLE PUNK!!!

[Mariomasher]

[Forever Forest/"Doomsday Forest"]
{MM, ??}

MM:so....the Hq must be that way. Forever Forest was due north of the HQ so south.....okay got it...

??:I see your good at directions.

MM:Wha-You again? who are you?

MM turned around to see a floating PC with a game of Pong as a face and a purple cape. he had two Mouses (computer) on his shoulders. he floated with great heigh, with no legs or hands.

L.O.G. for short, and i am the creator of all games!

MM:Even the ones that dont sell well, like Ghoulies?

L.O.G.:That was just a mishap, mariomasher.

MM:How do you know me?And also the SSS?How do you know all this?

L.O.G.:Must i explain it all? Well ill explain the information along the way.

MM and L.O.G. began walking.....and floating.......towards the SSS HQ.

L.O.G.:So, how do i know you? Well i AM the Lord Of Games....so i took part in creating you...

MM:But im in the real world, not some computer generated one.....right?

L.O.G.:Mariomasher, you are in a real world, i helped create you because ive been around for eternity. I've met your creator.

MM:Creator?

L.O.G.:Yes, you were created.

MM:By....By whom?

L.O.G.:A Creature named--

MM:Creature?You mean something that wasnt human?

L.O.G.:Yes, now enough wuestions, let me finish the ones you have already inquired. The creature was a group called the SSE. Im sure youve heard of them.

MM:SSE?!?!

L.O.G.:Yes, and you were a very useful weapon. In fact, you helped them come to existance. You held off any other group until your team had come upwith the purple matirial. Now how do i know of the SSS? Well if i helped you come to existance, which was with the SSE,then i know the SSS since you ttwo are rivals.

MM:Wait....howd i become....SSS if i was SSE?

L.O.G.:You were self dependant. You only did things if you wanted to. You loved to battle but they created you in the days of peace. You got annoyed and went on rampage and destroyed SSE militia. The SSS offered to teach you how to fight for the better and promised you lots of fights. You accepted the offer and became SSS. Now how you got your ice powers was...

MM: I know how i got them...

L.O.G.:Verywell. Lets see, we are aproximately 94.678 miles from the HQ and we have roughly 3.7 hours left of daylight. Let us stop and rest for the evening.

MM:okay

MM was setting up his tent as he looked over at L.O.G., who opened a portal and left.

MM:WAIT!!

The portal closed.

MM:what the hell?If he can summon portals then why cant he teleport to the HQ?!

MM, frustrated, finished setting up and went to sleep

[Rorschach]

Sour didnt worry about the jerk in the blue armor and ran past him...he rushed all over the building until he found a hospital...Sour then gave Geno to the doctors and waited for a few hours...the doctor later came out.

Sour: Doctor, give it to me straight, is he going to make it?

doctor: Yes, he is going to make a slow but full recovery.

Sour: Oh thank god...

doctor: Geno suffered major injuries, a broken arm, a busted rib and his collerbone was broken too...it seems like somebody tried to kill him, do you know anything about that son?

Sour: umm lets see...

Sour remembers the flashback...he remembers Geno screaming a name...what was the name...

Sour: I remember he said the name Nightmare. Oh my god I have to deliver a message!!

Sour runs into the main lobby.

Sour: ATTENTION EVERYBODY I HAVE A MESSAGE FROM GENO

nobody pays attention to Sour

Sour: NIGHTMARE AND SAINT ARE COMING HERE RIGHT AS YOU SPEAK.

the crowd froze...Sour didnt know what to do.

Sour: that was the message from Geno everybody.

Sour stumbled and ran back into the hospital.

[Kitt eh]

Lynx sighed, his blue eyes narrowed at Zero, "Your nice aren't ya..." he said sarcasticly. "You were in a useless state like that not to long ago, so how about you stop jerking off and just get out of the way." Lynx said sternly, a uncontolable growl coming from his throat.

Someone's tempers off... Akki said snickering. Ya, whatever! Lynx snapped back.

[supersonicblast06]

{SSS HQ Lobby}
{Rev, Zero, Lynx}

Rev squinted at the cat creature from within the lobby his scarf returning to seal his power covering his mouth this also meant that Rev wants nothing to do with Zero anymore he has moved on, Rev then squinted at Zero and then back at the cat, crossing his arms and leaning up against the wall firmly waiting for this Smashbro character to arrive, Rev said to Lynx and Zero. "I don't have time to play games and your wasting my time."

[The King Of Darkness]

Zero's eyes widen as he heard Nightmare and Saint was coming to destroy HQ. But Zero did not care for the safety of SSS HQ or the people it contained. He was focused on one thing.....REVENGE! Zero smiled and started to laugh.

Zero: (Finally the time has come for me to destroy Nightmare and avenge my family. After a while in this so called training room i shall become strong enough to finally put an end to Nightmare! AH HA HAHA!!! But i might not have as much time as i thought. I must find out from that crummy puppet how close they are!)

Totally ignoring comments made by Lynx and Rev, Zero made a B line for the hospital. He ran through the sliding doors into the hospital and talked to the receptionist.

Zero: WHERES GENO?! TELL ME NOW!!!

Receptionist: Hes in critical condition and is recovering from surgery.

Zero bolted to the back room where the patiants in critical care were kept. The receptionist grabbed Zeros Arm.

Receptionist: Where do you think your going? You cant go back there!!!

Zero jerked his arm throwing the receptionist. Zero spoke.

Zero: Listen here... I will go Where i want WHEN i want! Got it?!

Zero walked in into the room geno was kept in. All of the doctors stood in front of geno to protect him.

Zero: easy now men! Im only here to help so unless you want me to do it the hard way STEP ASIDE!

The doctors all stepped aside as Zero walked to geno who was completely out of it. Zero pulled out a senzu bean and told geno to eat it. Geno barely managed to do that. Within moments of eating the bean, Geno was awake and jumped to his feet. The doctor became very concerned of geno's health but didnt want to get in Zeros way. Zero grabbed geno by the collar.

Zero: Now puppet tell me HOW CLOSE ARE NIGHTMARE AND SAINT?!

Geno: By the time i got beat up was at least an hour ago. Judge how long it would take to get here from that point i would say at the least 1 day.

Zero released Geno.

Zero: Alright thanks for being helpful puppet. Now get your rest. Your still hurt pretty bad.

Zero began to leave the room when he spoke.

Zero: Hes all yours gentlemen.

Geno stopped Zero before leaving thee room.

Geno: ZERO WAIT!

Zero: What?!

Geno: Thanks for healing me Zero.

Zero: HMPH whatever........i only did it because i needed that information!

Geno: Uh huh.... Sure!

Zero left the room and geno continued his sleep.

[Cell]

[Sephiroth, Ganondorf]
[Dark World: Journey to Dark Pyramid]

In the dark vastness of the Dark World, there was nothing but pure silence in a eerie forest area. The dark creatures of Agahnim filled the towering trees and grounds below them. The forest was so quiet, that you could hear the creature's soft breathing. Nothing... but darkness and silence.

Suddenly, the silence was swiftly broken by a large, shadowy portal appeared in the middle of a forest clearing. The creatures positioned themselves for an attack, holding their weapons high. Waiting, they saw two tall men come through the portal; both were tall and strong looking men, neither showing the slightest hint of emotion or fear. Once the portal closed, the creatures charged at the powerful, godly entities.

With out a slash of a sword, though, the creatures fell one by one. The silver haired man nodded curtly towards a tall pyramid off in the distance. The burly warlock growled deep in his throat, but followed the swordsman anyway.

"Why must we walk to this godforsaken pyramid? Wouldn't it be easier to have just arrived at it instead of this forest?" Ganondorf grumbled bitterly.

"This is just a precaution. We don't want this Snicket person, or anyone else, to detect our arrival. The mission must be swift and easy, and them having extra preperation time wouldn't do us any good." Sephiroth responded.

The King of Evil sighed, irritated by these shannanigans. They both walked on, ready for the challenge that awaited them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Ucria]
[Dark Pyramid]

Ucria had been standing by, secretly watching Bob Snicket's group; a dreaded feeling that her assistance may soon be required. The gorgeous woman's eyes wandered to the grand door that the group had just arrived at. She cocked her head, curious as to what it may be. Snicket then handed the Yoshi a metal object and he put it in the ancient keyhole and twisted it. The door slowly creaked open, and Ucria's stomach turned. She had a feeling something was about to go very, very wrong...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Crehavos]
[Fallen Angel Castle: Throne Room]

Crehavos sat alone on his throne high above the ground. All his commanders were on missions, and he had nothing else to do. The Hell Lord took out the Orb of Ucria's Last of his pocket, staring at the black clouds that swarmed around inside. Mezmerized by it, and the longing for the power it would bring him. There was nothing he could do though, he would have to wait until Evil Kin brought Dobs to him. It had been two months already, and Dobs was still nowhere to be found.

Where could he be? Crehavos had no idea where the SSS warrior could be. Outer space was his only trail he had on Dobs, but the vastness of space made it near impossible to find him. His only hope was to play the waiting game a little while longer. Hopefully soon, his desire would be ultimately fufilled.
