Roleplay:The Fury Of The Elemental Gods

Eeeeeehhhh....I seriously gotta stop making roleplays. I make too much. Err...so basically, this involves my latest characters, The Elemental Gods. Normally, they are peaceful creatures. But something has aroused their fury, and now they're attacking!

Prologue: The Legend of the Elemental Gods
(In the Troll Moon Base...)

Toxic: (Reading a book)

Mac: Wow, Toxic. For once, you're not reading porno.

[One of the random trolls gags.]

Toxic: Oh, shut up.

Mac: So, whatcha readin'? (looks at book title) "The Legend of The Elemental Gods"? What kinda bullcrap is that?

Toxic: It isn't bullcrap, it's very interesting. I'm thinking about showing it to Rageik.

Frost: *cough*Brown-noser*cough*

Toxic: I heard that!!

Bolt: So, what's the book about?

Toxic: Well, apparently, there are 10 major elements, right? Fire, Ice, Water, Electricity, Wind, Earth, Light and Darkness. And, there is a corresponding god or goddess for each element; Fiamme, Kyanos, Neso, Haeos, Khazri, Temblor, Celeritas, Voidstar, Mokuhana and Dokuso.

Bolt: Wow. Are they real?

Toxic: I'm assuming so.

Bolt: We should totally tell Rageik!

(So they totally tell Rageik. Doo de doo...)

Rageik: What do you want?

Toxic: Look at this book, sir! (holds the book out to Rageik)

Rageik: Hmph. What is this all about?

Toxic: Magic deities, sir!

Rageik: Hmm....magic deities, you say? (takes book and flips through it) Yes....interesting...

(Then, the four Trolls (or referred to as newbies), Liam, Cloud, Macabre, and Pop, enters the room)

Ghost: [whispers to Toxic] Here comes the newbies...

Toxic: Oh boy...

Liam: I just heard that someone said about an interesting book.

Macabre: Yes, and we wonder what it is.

Rageik: It is a book on ancient Elemental Deities.

Cloud, Liam, Macabre and Pop: Elemental Deities?

Rageik: Yes. There are ten base Elements, and a deity that corresponds with each.

Liam: I see.

Cloud: I wonder what the ten base Elements are?

Rageik: [Rolls eyes] Why don't you guess?

Ghost: Yeah, "pros".

Liam: Uhh... there's Neso, Haeos, Temblor, Voidstar, Dokuso, Celeritas, Mokuhana, Fiamme, Khazri and... [lies] that's it.

(The Trolls boo at Liam)

Tantrum: Pffft, what a newbie!

Nightshade: He didn't guessed all ten Elemental Deities, even though he guessed nine right.

Toxic: [To Liam] You forgot Kyanos, you dips***.

Liam: >>"

Macabre: Don't let that get on your nerves, Liam. At least you got some right.

Tantrum: Not all of them.

Cloud: I wonder how we could find Elemental Deities?

Toxic: Hmmmm....

Pop: We could search for them.

Toxic: Yes, you could.

Cloud: In that case, let's go! [runs off]

Ghost: [sarcastic] Yeah, let's follow the newbie.

Macabre: What about Brian?

Tantrum: If you mean Dismal, then he's a little busy with Bubonic.

Toxic: Hehe, a little.

(The Trolls leave to find the ten Elemental Deities)

Part 1
''[As per usual, Wolfgang can be seen strumming on his guitar happily as he walks through a forest. His Vulpix, Inferna, can be seen following him.]''

(A familiar wolf sticks his head out from behind a nearby tree, his own guitar in hand)

Flare: Dude, I think your D string is a little flat.

Wolfgang: [Smiles at the familiar voice] Good to see you again, Flare.

Flare: Yeah, the feeling's mutual. Always good to get out and see old friends...even if it is in a forest.

Wolfgang: What's wrong with forests?

Inferna: [Notices a butterfly and starts swatting at it] :3

Flare: Nothing, I'm just used to the idea that most people stay in cities, and it's more likely to run into people you know there. I love coming out here, mostly because most of my teammates can't find me, only radio me. Gives me some quiet to enjoy the scenery.

Wolfgang: Ah. I just like being outdoors. :3

Flare: Yeah...makes a difference to my forge.

Wolfgang: Forge?

''[Meanwhile, a female Mobian wolf can be seen out walking. Her coloration is somewhat unusual; her muzzle, chest and tail tip are a bright, hot yellow, while her fur is orange and her hair is red, with both colors being just as intense and fiery. Her eyes are an intense shade of golden yellow. She's wearing a short sleeved, flame-patterned jacket, a black undershirt, black fingerless gloves, khaki shorts and boots with flame pattern, as well as a few earrings and a necklace of sorts.]''

(Johnny can be seen fixing the engine of his souped-up rally car, not aware of the female Mobian Wolf's appearance)

Johnny: [whistling while fixing the car's engine with his wrench]

[She hears the sounds and turns towards them with slight interest.]

Johnny: [finishes fixing before closing its hood] Whew. Dunno how the engine acted this way, but it should be good as new now. [chuckles before tossing the wrench inside the car from an open window]

[Seeing him finish, she starts to walk away, no longer interested.]

Johnny: [was about to get inside, but notices someone and turns to see a female Mobian wolf; thinking] Hmm... she looks familiar. [out loud] Hey, you!

???: ? [turns around]

(Johnny approaches towards her before stopping)

Johnny: [to ???] Hi there, I'm Johnny the Fox, and you must be?

Fortunata: I am Fortunata.

Johnny: Fortunata, huh? So, what brings you here on the planet Mobius?

Fortunata: ....I am not an alien...

Johnny: ... [facepalms; thinking] ''Dang it, Johnny! What were you saying?!'' [sweatdrops, chuckles nervously] Hehe, sorry if I asked you that kind of question.

Fortunata: It's alright.

(Meanwhile with the Trolls, they spot Fortunata (although they are far away from her and Johnny)

Cloud: [sees Fortunata; lies] Hey, that looks like Kyanos!

(The Trolls, with the exception of Macabre, Liam and Pop, groan and facepalm seeing as how Cloud lied)

Nightshade: What a dumb s***...

Venom: *make's various movements which roughly translates to "can i hit him?"

Nightshade: Go ahead.

Cloud: What? [lies more] She's Kyanos, right?

(The Trolls, except Liam, Pop and Macabre, groan and facepalm even more when Cloud lied again)

Tantrum: Oh, shut the f*** up, newbie!

Toxic: [To Cloud] You idiot, she's a wolf! A ...veeeery sexy wolf....[looks more at Fortunata] Mmmmhmmmm...~

Ghost: No offense, Toxic, but... [points to Johnny, who is with her]

Toxic: Pffft, so what?

Tantrum: [grins evilly] Go for it, Toxic.

Toxic: See, Tantrum here knows how I roll. [saunters over to Johnny and Fortunata]

(Johnny and Fortunata happens to see Toxic)

Johnny: ?? [sees Toxic] What the--?! [immediately opens his hand, threatens to burn Toxic's face off] WTF are you doing here, ya womanizer?!

Toxic: Now now, I'm not here to cause trouble...[looks at Fortunata] Well, hello there, gorgeous...~

Johnny: ... [lowers his attack, but keeps a close eye on him]

(Johnny then sees Pop, Liam, Macacabre, and Cloud trying to steal his souped-up rally car (as a form of distraction)!)

Johnny: ?! [runs after the four] HEY! That's my rally car you're trying to steal, wise-@$$es!!

(Meanwhile, not far away from the action, Ghost snickers)

Ghost: [snickering] At least these newbies did something useful for once to divert the fox's attention...

Tantrum: Heheheh, yeah.

Toxic: So, what's your name, beautiful?

Fortunata: Not interested.

Toxic: Heh, hehe, if I had a Mobium for every time I heard that, I'd be filthy rich.

Fortunata: Yet you are already filthy.

Toxic: Ohhh, don't be like that...[puts an arm around her shoulders] I'm not a bad guy.

Fortunata: And are you not already rich as well, crown prince?

Toxic: [Blinks] H-How'd you know...???

Fortunata: I know things. For instance, I know how to do this.

[A clear liquid starts to pour from her now outstretched palm, and it pools around Toxic's feet.]

Toxic: [Eyes widen] N-Napalm...???

Fortunata: Yes. [the liquid stops flowing, and a small flame appears on her fingers] And now you die. Send my regards to Buer. [snaps her fingers, causing a spark of flame that falls towards the napalm puddle]

Toxic: FU-

[The flame hits the puddle and instantly surrounds Toxic in an explosive, violent flame, incinerating him in seconds flat.]

(The Trolls gasp in shock)

Ghost: Toxic! [growls to Fortunata] You'll pay for this...!

Fortunata: *chuckles* Come play, little children.

Ghost: Gladly! Tantrum, Nightshade, with me!

(The three charges towards Fortunata, who are about to attack her. Meanwhile with Johnny, the four Trolls escapes from him)

Johnny: [stops, pants] Geez... for such a one-hit Trolls, they sure do run fast... [sigh] I gotta head back and see if Fortunata's all right. [walks back]

(Back with Ghost, Tantrum and Nightshade, they close in on Fortunata)

Fortunata: Eager to die, I see...[holds out her hands a bit; the palms fill with fire] Then so be it. [puts her hands side by side, sending a stream of fire at the three Trolls]

(The three is immediately engulfed in flames and are burned into ashes within seconds. The Trolls retreat, knowing that they are no match for Fortunata. Johnny returns, who is somewhat out of breath after being unsuccessful at killing the four Trolls)

Fortunata: Hmm? [looks at Johnny] You missed the fun.

Johnny: Yeah. Some wannabe Trolls tried to hijack my ride, so I went after them and got away. [looks at the Trolls that are nearly burnt into nothing; shocked] Wow...
 * (Jon-IMO, Fortunata's fire powers surpasses Johnny's :P)
 * (Ryu-Well she is the Goddess of Fire :P)
 * (Jon-I wonder...)
 * (Ryu-?)
 * (Jon-[is trying to make up an idea, but has none so far])

Fortunata: [Looks at the ashes] Hmm. What an ugly stain that is. [A ball of pure white fire appears in her left hand; she throws it at the ashes, incinerating them, leaving nothing behind] There.

Johnny: [seems amazed] Nice. So, do you want to do anything, Fortunata?

Fortunata: [Shrugs a bit] What do you want to do?

Johnny: Hmm... I know! I could introduce you to my friends! Wanna come?

Fortunata: Okay.

Johnny: All righty, then! Let's go!

(The two heads off to Ryushu's. Meanwhile with the four Trolls...)

Liam: What is the fox's problem? His car was awesome!

Cloud: [lies] I doubt he's old enough to drive it.

Macabre: Indeed.

(The four can see the other Trolls hiding)

Cloud: Why are you guys hiding? [lies] Aren't you supposed to be tough as nails?

Tonic: What are you, nuts?! Nightshade, Ghost and Tantrum just got incinerated by that wolf girl!!

Cloud: Greeeat.

(Then...)

Pop: [grabs an Elemental Orb] I have found an orb. [lies] It looks like the Wind Elemental Orb.

(The trolls groans and facepalms for the umpteenth time since Pop has lied about guessing the Elemental Orb he acquired incorrectly)

Tonic: God, what an idiot. -_-"

Liam: I think he's holding a red Elemental Orb.

Punchout: Hmmm...

(As Punchout looks closer, he finds out that Pop is holding a Fire Elemental Orb!)

Punchout: What the-?! The n00b actually found an Elemental Orb???

(The Trolls seems to be shocked after Pop found the Fire Elemental Orb)

Chet: Lucky. -_-

Tonic: We need to tell Rageik!

(At the Troll Moon Base, Rageik gets a call from Tonic)

Rageik: [Answers his cellphone] What is it?

Tonic (on phone): You're not gonna believe this, Rageik! Pop, the n00b, just found the first Elemental Orb!

Rageik: Really. Bring him and the Orb here.

Tonic (on phone): On it. [hangs up]

(Back with the Trolls...)

Punchout: What'd he say?

Tonic: We bring the n00b and the Fire Elemental Orb to Rageik inside the Troll Moon Base.

Punchout: Okay.

(Tonic Chaos Controls himself, Pop and Punchout inside the Troll Moon Base)

Tonic: I have brought the n00- err, Pop with the Fire Elemental Orb in his possession, Rageik.

Rageik: I see...

Pop: [walks towards Rageik] Here is the... [looks for the right words, but gets it] Fire Elemental Orb, oh great leader. [gives the Fire Elemental Orb to Rageik]

Rageik: Impressive....and you simply found it laying around?

Pop: Yes, while Liam, Cloud and Macabre were arguing at each other.

Rageik: I see...[inspects the Orb]

[Suddenly, an explosion rocks the metal walls of the Troll Base. An orange explosion of energy tears open a hole in the cieling, causing air to be forcefully sucked out into the vacuum of space.]

Pop: [is sucked into space and instantly dies]

Rageik: S***!! [uses Chaos Shield] Who did that?!

[Suddenly, a barrage of orange energy missiles and cyan laser blasts rain down on the ground around Rageik and his shield.]

Rageik: Grrr...!! [runs through the barrage, dodging the best he can, with the shield still over him]

[Out of nowhere, a red orb appears in front of Ragiek, inside his Chaos Shield. The moment Ragiek notices it, the red orb expands into a fiery explosion.]

Rageik: GAAAAAAHHH!!

[His Shield shatters, and he is sent flying backwards, dropping the Orb in the process.]

???: Huh, guess this wasn't as troublesome as I thought it would be.

Rageik: *growls* [gets up] Who's there?!

[Standing in the ragged hold was a purple Mobian-like robot, with numerous lights across his body and a sharp tail.]

Rageik: Who are you...???

???: Nega MkII, creation of the Eggman Empire.

Rageik: *growl* That fat b******...what do you want, Nega??

Nega: Simple. *Nega rockets towards the ground with blast of orange light from his feet, crashing into the ground. The impact causes the orb to fly into the air, which Nega deftly catches* I'm here for this troublesome little Orb you've got.

Rageik: Oh no you don't...!! [charges at Nega, hands coated in Chaos energy]

[Nega's body glows green, and a fluctuation spreads out from his body. The gravity within the area reduces, causing Rageik to float up into the air, his legs moving fruitlessly.]

Rageik: The hell...?! *growl* Chaos Spear!! [hurls a Chaos Spear at Nega]

Nega: *deftly steps out of the way* Sorry to hit and run, but I really have to go, "Troll Lord Rageik".

Rageik: [Trying to get closer to Nega] You'll pay for this...!!

Nega: Perhaps, which makes this whole thing troublesome. But for now, I'm going to be on my way. *the green glow surrounds Nega once again, and the orange energy is released from his feet, but less powerful. Nega flies off through the large hole in the roof he made, and the strange fluctuation eventually dissipates, causing Rageik to fall to the ground*

(A figure slightly similar to Rageik dashes up, unable to stop Nega, and attempts to assist the head Troll)

Rageik: So close...I could feel the power coming from that Orb...!

???: I can trace him, Lord Rageik, should you desire it.

Rageik: Yes, do it! I want that Orb back!

[Meanwhile, Nega flies back to a secret Eggman base. He then looks at the orb.]

Nega: Geez, why is this orb so valuable? Far as I can see, it's just troublesome. *shrugs* Oh well...

Part 2
(Back with Johnny and Fortunata... they arrive at Ryushu's house)

Johnny: Here we are. This is my friend's house, Fortunata.

Fortunata: I see.

[They notice a familiar orange fox sleeping on Ryu's roof...]

Johnny: [was about to knock on the door, but sees someone on the roof] ??

[A second figure, this one appearing to be a wolf wearing not much more than a towel dashes past, swearing in Mandalorian]

Johnny: ??? [turns to see a mysterious wolf] Uhh, excuse me, sire.

[The wolf, revealed by his fluency in Mandalorian and signature hair as Flare, turned and frowned at Johnny]

Flare: Don't worry, I'm wearing shorts under this towel, this kind of thing happens now and then to me. Some idiot hooked a teleport up to my ensuite door, so when I walked out after a shower I got teleported to near here. I normally keep a spare set of clothes at, or rather, near Ryu's house, in case it comes down to guard duty from those trolls, so I'm trying to get to those clothes before too many people start bugging me about wearing a towel in public.

Johnny: Oh. By the way, this is Fortunata, Flare. She just burned those Trolls into nothing. Awesome, huh?

Flare: [distractedly] Yeah, yeah, good to meet you, ma'am. 'Scuse me, don't want to have Ryu stick her head out and see her boyfriend running around town apparently in a towel!

[Flare's wings form in a burst of flame, and he dashes off towards a tree directly opposite Ryu's bedroom, disappearing into the foliage with a single wing-enhanced leap]

Johnny: Uhhh see ya, Flare.

Fortunata: More talk of those Trolls. Who are they?

Johnny: Okay. The Trolls are Toxic, a womanizing b****** who flirts on every woman he finds, and he doesn't care whether they are single or taken; Tantrum, a fox who is not only angry, but also uses fits of rage to intimidate others; Ghost, well... he'sa white Troll who uses Scary Face, which makes people get scared half to death; Tonic, he's a manizing Troll, much like Toxic. [tries to think of other names of the Trolls, but has ran out of ideas] Looks like that's all I can tell you so far.

[They hear a yawn from the roof, and the fox on Ryu's roof looks down.]

Hunter: Waaaaay to specific for the question, dude... [yawns again] The trolls are recolors of other mobians, generally made via genetic tampering... They tend to have chaos-powers along with the ability to regenerate destroyed body-parts so long as they're mainly intact... The most annoying thing about them, however, is the fact they come back after death, somehow getting a perfectly fit body back on their moon-base..... Also, they taste fairly good with the right sauce...

Johnny: [small chuckle] Heh. Thanks, uhhh.... [trying to find out Hunter's name]

Hunter: The name's Hunter, John... [He brings his head back out of sight and yawns yet again]

Johnny: Uhhh okay then. [knocks on the door of Ryu's home]

[She answers the door, holding a Wii remote.]

Ryu: Hello?

[Flare sticks his head out of the tree, sees Ryu, and quickly disappears again]

Johnny: Hi there! Ryu, [nods to show Fortunata] this is Fortunata; [to Fortunata] Fortunata, this is Ryu, or Ryushu.

Ryu: Well hey there. ^^

[Fortunata waves, smiling a bit.]

Johnny: She just annihilated the Trolls, including that womanizer Toxic, though I missed all the action, seeing as how the Troll noobs were trying to steal my ride... - -"

[Meanwhile, at Eggman's base...]

Dr. Eggman: [chuckles evilly; thinking] It won't be long when Nega MkII finds the Elemental Orb...

''[A shadowy figure slides into position behind Eggman, making the most of the doctor's lack of attention to position himself, ready to ambush Nega. Eggman patiently waits for Nega's arrival]''

(Back with the Trolls, Toxic, Ghost, Nightshade and Tantrum regenerates)

Tantrum: Ugh... this chick just torched us for no reason...

Ghost: She'll pay for this!

[Another atypical recolor was resting next to the regeneration chambers]

???: You got torched by a chick? Interesting...Standard or advanced flame?

Nightshade: Aadvanced flame. Even Toxic's womanizing trick didn't work on her.

Toxic: [sarcastic] Gee, thanks for reminding me, Nightshade. ¬¬

???: Sounds like on the next run, you might just need an advanced flame user to cover your backsides.

Nightshade: Yeah.

???: Just you're luck! One of them just volunteered!

Toxic: [thinking] I should've said the word to volunteer, but looks like Nightshade's taking the credit, for now...

Ghost: Well, Nightshade, you just got volunteered!

???: Wait, you think I mean lessons... Heh, I might be a good teacher, but HOW many of you can use fire at all, let alone with any form of mastery?

Toxic: Hmm... Tantrum would be useful, seeing as how he has fire abilities.

Tantrum: Hehe yeah. Looks like I'm in for the lessons.

???: Fine. But, for you're knowledge, I'm coming with you on your next run. You're fighting a master of Advanced Flame, why not take along your own master of almost all of them?

Tantrum: [smirks, turns to Toxic] Whaddya think, Toxic?

Toxic: Gladly! [walks and stands next to Tantrum]

Scorch: Good. Tantrum, if you still want lessons, then come talk to me later. I'll be training. Catch you later.

Tantrum: [nods]

Toxic: [chuckles] Well, Tantrum. Looks like you'll be putting lessons on improving your fire skills.

Tantrum: Yeah, and we'll teach that wolf lady from turning us into ashes again!

Toxic: Yeah! [to Ghose and Nightshade] You two go find one of the Elemental Orbs. Tantrum and I are gonna meet up with Scorch so Tantrum can work on improving his fire skills.

Ghost and Nightshade: Yes sir!

(The two walks off to find the Elemental Orbs. Back with the three...)

Johnny: [gets an odd feeling; thinking] ''Huh..? All of a sudden, I'm getting a weird feeling... but then again, it's probably just me.''

(Back with Ghost and Nightshade, while looking for another Elemental Orb, they stumble upon Johnny's rally car that was parked earlier.)

Ghost: Hello. [looking at Johnny's Ronin Mk IV; wolf whistles] Nice ride. I bet it's Johnny's. If that's the case, then we should take it as a trophy! Rageik would be pleased!

Nightshade: ...Aren't we supposed to be looking for the Elemental Orb, Ghost?

Ghost: That, and we steal the fox boy's ride as a bonus!

Nightshade: Hmm... not a bad idea, Ghost. I'll call the other Trolls for backup, while you find the Elemental Orb.

Ghost: If it means getting more muscle, then yes, Nightshade.

(Ghost walks off to find the Elemental Orb while Nightshade phones the other Trolls for backup)

Nightshade: Punchout, Bubonic, Frost, and Stinkwad, I require your assistance for seeking Elemental Orbs.

Bubonic: Elemental Orbs? I've heard of those...I'll stay here in my lab. If you find one, let me analyze it first.

Nightshade: All right. Oh yeah, and when I get the Elemental Orb, I'm also bringing in a bonus...

(back with Ghost, he continues to look for the Elemental Orb)

Ghost: Hmm... now where could that next Elemental Orb be...

[He wanders into a ravine.]

???: You look lost, traveler.

Ghost: Eh? [looks around] Who said that?

[A buff, brown-furred bull with reddish orange hair leans against the rock wall, his arms crossed.]

Ghost: Eh I'm not lost, just looking for umm... buried treasure.

Bull: Ohh, buried treasure, eh?

Ghost: Yes. Buried treasure, and not treasure chests filled with gold coins.

[The bull rubs his chin, looking thoughtful.]

Bull: Buried artifacts, perhaps?

Ghost: ...you could say that.

Bull: Hmm...don't know of any buried artifacts around here.

Ghost: Eh, buried or not, I just look for them, like any treasure hunter would.

Bull: I see.

Ghost: So if you don't mind, I have to find me an artifact, so... yeah. [waves at the Bull before walking off]

Bull: [Waves back] *thinking* Good luck...you'll need it. Hehehe...

(Ghost walks off to find the Elemental Orb, not fully aware that the Bull is actually Tristan. Going a bit further, there seem to be deep grooves in the ground, like tracks from some large, serpentine creature.)

Ghost: Hmm... what's this? A large trail from a snake? Hmm... [follows the trail]

[The trail leads into a large hole in the ground, going downwards diagonally.]

Ghost: [thinking] ''I bet this leads to an Elemental Orb... only one way to find out.'' [goes inside a large hole]

''[The tunnel is almost perfectly round. Ghost has to crawl through it.]''

Ghost: [mumbles] Puzzles really get to me... [crawls inside a hole]

[It's quite dark...]

Ghost: [still crawling through a hole; thinking] If I had a dime for a flashlight, I would see it better!

(Ghost is unaware that he is about to fall off after crawling through a dark hole. His hand suddenly dips downward, and he falls, rolling down another diagonal tunnel of wider width. He eventually lands on even ground, with only minor bumps and bruises.)

Ghost: Oof! [groans and gets up dizzily] That smarts...

[The tunnel is tall enough for Ghost to stand up in...but then the ground starts to vibrate faintly!]

Ghost: ?!

[The vibrating steadily gets stronger...]

Ghost: [vibrating voice] Is this an earthquake or something?!

[Rather far out in front of him, he can see a pair of red eyes...!]

Ghost: [sees the red eyes] Uhhh o_o

[The owner of the eyes approaches; it's a wild Steelix!]

Steelix: Liiiix!!

Ghost: OHFU-

[It starts to come after him!]

Ghost: WHOA! [runs away from Steelix] Easy there, big, rocky guy!

[It continues to give chase!]

Ghost: Geez, you're so persistent! If you happen to be the one guarding the Elemental Orb, [stops running and goes into a fighting stance] then bring it, ya rabid stone snake!

[The Steelix opens its mouth as it slithers up to Ghost, and attempts to use Crunch on him!]

Ghost: [opens his hand and darkness aura materializes into Shadow Ball] Eat [throws it at Steelix's open mouth] THIS!

''[The attack hits, making the Steelix recoil in pain. However, since the tunnel is only a little bit wider than its head, it can't move backwards. It roars angrily and starts charging up a Hyper Beam!]''

Ghost: Uh oh. How about [uses Confuse Ray on Steelix, in an effort to negate its Hyper Beam] THIS?!

''[The attack hits again, but the Steelix can't stop itself now. It releases the Hyper Beam in a powerful blast!]''

Ghost: F**K! [uses his arms to shield himself]

''[The Hyper Beam shoots right into him, engulfing him completely. As the smoke clears, Ghost is nothing but ashes, meaning that the attack was too great for him to withstand. The Steelix shakes its head, trying to clear its mind of the confusion that Ghost's Confuse Ray caused. It eventually burrows into the earth in front of Ghost's ashes and tunnels away. Back with Fortunata, and Ryushu, the wolf looks up suddenly, as if she heard a noise.]''

Fortunata: ......

Ryu: ?

Johnny: [looks at Fortunata, seemingly concerned] ...is something up, Fortunata?

(Johnny then waves his hand in front of Fortunata's face, in an effort to snap her out of it)

Fortunate: Huh?

Johnny: Are you okay? You seem to be spaced out all of a sudden.

Fortunata: Uhh...I'm fine...

Johnny: O...kay. Aaanyways, I'm gonna go check and see if my ride's still there. [runs off of Ryushu's home to check if his Ronin Mk IV is still there]

[Flare was standing near Ryu's house, inspecting something]

Flare: Hmm...looks like Trolls.

(Outside...)

Johnny: [stops and sees that his Ronin Mk IV was dissapeared and stolen] NOOOO!!!

[Flare instantly stops and shivers, turning to look at Johnny]

Flare: Dude? What's so bad that caused you to scream like a banshee? I mean, seriously!

Johnny: [eye twitches, grits teeth as he looks at the spot that his ride used to be] My ride... got stolen...

Flare: Hmm...and the footprints I found earlier aren't the usual Troll stalkers... Dude, I think Trolls jacked your ride... and I don't think anyone knows where the mechanical mastermind of the Trolls keeps the vehicles he works on.

Johnny: I'm pretty sure they're gonna use it as a trophy, just like how that aqua ba***** took "Tiny" for a joyride with his degenerate Moebians...

Flare: Yeah, but think of it this way - that car's how advanced, exactly, compared to a normal one? Any tech in that's going to be taken apart and analyzed, and then it'll be their trophy, while your unique mods start to appear on Troll-customized cars, and in Troll hands.

Johnny: Even so, they'll still keep it anyway, and that's what worries me.

Flare: Ok then...what do we do to get your car back?

Johnny: Dunno. I'm not one for teleportation.

''[Meanwhile, the brown bull walks up to the hole that Ghost went down. Kneeling down, he smirks as he looks down into it.]''

Bull: A fitting burial place for your body. [Standing up, he walks away]

(Ghost still remains in ashes as the bull walks away. Meanwhile, Liam sees Toxic, Tantrum and Nightshade regenerate)

Liam: So, was the wolf lady defeated?

Tantrum: Can it, n00b.

Nightshade: You should've seen what happened to us. >_>

Toxic: That babe sure was sexy, though...

[Nightshade slaps the back of Toxic's head.]

Toxic: Ow!

Nightshade: Keep your pants on, Casanova.

Tantrum: [chuckles] Hehe. "Casanova".

Toxic: Geh...so what do we do now?

Nightshade: That wolf uses fire, yeah?

Toxic: Yeah..

Nightshade: So it's obvious that we use water against her!

Tantrum: Yeah! Hell, we'll even use ice against her and her fox partner!

Nightshade: Ice is a bit trickier, Tantrum. It's the opposite of Fire, so neither of them have a distinct advantage over the other. Best to stick with water, and use ice as a backup.

Tantrum: Yeah. Good idea, considering as how both that wolf lady and that fox boy use fire elements.

Nightshade: The fox is the least of our worries. We've got some...collateral that's sure to distract him.

Toxic: You mean that rally car?

Nightshade: Yes, that rally car.

Toxic: He's obsessed with his vehicles. Having one of his rides would just make him that much more willing to kill you.

Nightshade: Not if we threaten to trash it if he doesn't help us ind those Orbs.

Toxic: .....that's actually rather clever of you, Nightshade. Maybe there's hope for you after all.

Nightshade: Oh cram it, you sex hound. >.>

Tantrum: LOL. Anyway, let's come up with a plan, considering as how wolf lady isn't with that fox boy anymore...

Liam: Which plan? [lies] Do we ask wolf lady where fox boy is?

[Later, at the Moon Base, which was partially destroyed by Nega MkII, Bubonic has acquired (or stolen) Johnny's vehicle, the Ronin Mk IV.]

Bubonic: [cackles] Since the Trolls have notified me about using the fox's machine as a hostage, it won't be long before the flaming fox boy wanders into my trap and will be forced to work with us, or else his vehicle will be turned into scraps!

[Frost chose that moment to enter, amazed at the vehicle]

Frost: This car is a thing of beauty... and I bet she's got some nice tech under the hood. Can I grab a scan? I want to try reverse-engineering some of the technology, for the array of cars we've got in storage.

Bubonic: [chuckles] I see no reason not to, Frost. [hands Frost his scanner]

Frost: Sweet... [Frost's jaw dropped as he passed the scanner over the vehicles, making a digital design of everything on board] ...well, there's that much work in there, even if I got Molotov to help, we'll be working for months. The engine alone is more advanced than I was expecting... go back to plotting, I've got to get building. [Frost returned the scanner, memorizing the server code before heading back to his workshop, the weaponry & vehicle production base there in the Moon Base]''.

Bubonic: [cackles] In the meantime, I shall away until fox boy takes the bait and use him as a hostage in order for him to find the Elemental Orbs for us.
