Hunger for wrath

Cheers roar throughout the land, throwing their fists up. The Vaders energy warms the whole courtyard, no cold wind breaks through their fiery souls. "Vanula! Vanula! Vanula!"

“He sure does know how to pick a crowd up.”

"Bastard’s even moving me. At the beginning of this madness. I thought it’ll just be us four fighting against our enemies. Sola, I was well prepared to execute that, but now look around us. We don’t have to do this alone anymore. Let’s stay here, although at the end of the day we make the rules,” finished Pai.

Kel wraps around Pai and Sola. “Damn right, with everyone here; we’ll make a difference for sure.”

“Yeah, whatever, can we just finish this up already?”

“Where’s the upbeat energy, Apollo?” says Zack Zack.

“You’re the one to talk, haven’t you heard yourself before?”

“Our adventure for Nova is just starting. I doubt it’ll be easier. Getting closer will feel like swimming through mud. Stronger foes and difficult situations will stand before us. Some of us may die trying to reach it. I’ll gladly give mine to stop them from reaching it.”

“Why look at what we have here, all these people trying to reach out for Nova. It’s silly to think everyone here will see Nova…Only my king will.” Above weak yellow essence flows down, Pai and Danika notice among the crowd.

It’s Dash jetting through the clouds, with large silky bat wings twisting upon the vaders soaring through the sky. Yellow round orbs rain down. “Everyone to your weapons,” demanded Vanula, from the balcony.

Running for their stations, but there won’t be enough time before impact. “Gotta dumbasses” laughed Dash. The orbs disappear above. What the fuck, where are my bombs?

“Hey, you can have these back.” Placing the bombs around him. “Solar flare!”

Swarming into the flares igniting Dashes bombs, night clearing explosions rip the sky apart, pushing trees back and forward. Some Vader troops are blown off the ground. “Prepare everyone, this isn’t a drill! Fight with everything.”

Every Vader scatters throughout the courtyard. Grabbing their weapons, loading inside the tanks and aircraft, while others combine with mech suits. Rondo’s fleet glides near the headquarters.

Blue flashes through the frigid clouds, the exhaust burns blue essence. Twirling around the yellow tint paints its path.

“Wait, is that what I think it is...Taleen! Who’s flying the ship?” says Zack Zack.

Rockets and lasers bolt from Taleen destroying androids peeling in. Multiple enemy aircraft fire upon Taleen. “Shit!” Mr. Z jets over the corps, more androids drop from the mothership hitting dirt.

“The enemies are already here, come on, let's push them back.” A snake slides across the troop. “What the hell is a snake doing here?” He goes to step on it. Morco looks up and smiles. “Did this snake just smile at me?”

“Is that how you treat guests? I like that.” In a flash, Morco grows into a giant, sending soldiers flying throughout the air. Purple lightning strikes Morco. Damn, that stings, where did that come from? “Hey, buddy, down here.” Vanula jumps up to Morco’s face, bashing him out of the courtyard.

“Hey, Juzu, I’ll handle the snake, report back to me when you’re finished on your end. Stay safe.”

“Got it, boss,” says Juzu.

They dash off, lifting essence up. Blood portals merge under everyone’s feet, blasting arrows for the mothership; dodging every troop below. Rondo sees it incoming, however, crawl markings counters Apollo's arrows.

“I’m tired of those arrows,” barks Spark. Landing a kick on Apollo sending him through a building. Kel and Sola react by rushing for Spark. Sola’s hands glow golden, aiming for his head. Miss Rich knocks both hands away; essence tumbles out the building. Sola’s star rockets out, almost clipping the alien.

Kel manages to lock up Spark using winds throwing him up. Apollo rockets out the building flying his arrow, striking Spark directly with the front end. Apollo and Spark fly from the courtyard. Jumping off the arrow, it detonates.

Miss Rich sends furious multiple kicks at Sola, but manages to dodge them. Miss Rich swipes her leg along with dust, tripping Sola. Miss Rich's razor teeth hug Sola's arm, taking flesh off.

Sola's knee connects to Miss Rich's torso, shooting her off. Sola’s star auto locks for the alien, yet it crumbles away. What just happened to my shot? Miss Rich drop kicks Sola’s chest, crashing her into the wall.

“Sola!” Androids surround Kel. Move, assholes! Kel unleashes a razor-sharp wind from the arm, splitting them into pieces. “I gotta trust Apollo and Sola can handle themselves. I have to fight on my own front. I won’t let the past repeat itself.”

Zack Zack runs into the hangar, as Taleen pulls inside. “What the hell, why aren’t you flying anymore?”

“I don’t wanna be waiting around forever doing nothing, and we got a better pilot, hurry up and take over, Zack Zack.”

“How about you control the weapons, and clear our path?”

“You got it, boss.” Mr. Z smiles.

Pai teleports throughout the air destroying androids.

“I’m still here, asshole,” raged Dash. Dropping a bomb, igniting upon Pai, the feather-style blade sucks the explosion inside.

Finishing up, Rondo appears from behind punching him under.

“This isn't so scorching after all, you're nothing but a tiny little flame," scoffed Rondo.

Knocking the spit out of his mouth, afterward his fist heats with essence, blasting hundreds of beams among Pai, leaving a crater, yet Pai teleports beside Rondo. Grinding his teeth, Pai punches Rondo into a building.

Juzu still stands on a roof, while multiple aluminum androids scan him. “I know you’re here, just come out already!” Plug giggles hanging off the rooftop. “You’re good…Let’s pick up where we left off and put on a good show for everyone.”

Juzu rockets to Plug, throwing an uppercut. Nevertheless, Plug's sword blocks the blow. The uppercut cracks half the roof. Essence pushes the androids back.

“Now, that’s more like it, Juzu, but how long can you keep this streak up? I need you to tell me where our supplies are.”

"How about you just worry about yourself, and shut the hell up already?”

Blood soaks in white cloth, screaming wounded are rolled inside, doctors and nurses hurry dripping blood behind themselves. Blake’s emerald essence heals a burned soldier’s arm.

"My leg, fuck me, it's gone!"

"Help me...please. I can't fight anymore...please help me."

"Come on get me back out there, I can still move! Don’t you hear them all out there!"

"No, your bone is literally pierced through the skin. Sit down, you're in no condition to fight anymore," said the nurse.

"Goddammit! Why like this...I'm still breathing and can't do fucking anything, while my friends are outside fighting for everyone's lives. What kind of Vader am I huh... Answer me!"

"A true Vader."

"Yeah? Why doesn't it feel like that," cries the soldier.

Bloody screams echo twisting inside everyone's ears. I gotta do the best I can to support everyone. I’m the support, I cannot make Vanula look bad.

Warm green essence and little purple lightning flow all from Blake. Her essence swarms everyone. “Remedy anew!” Blake doubles everyone’s healing speed.“Alright if you’re healed, come help the hurt or get the hell out of my way and keep fighting. We got things to do, people, don’t let the chaos blur your vision. Adapt to it.”

Pai and Rondo trade blows; crushing out every wall. Hellfire blue beams chase Pai, a feather-style sword slashes them through the air. Rondo throws the desk like a potato chip. It’s slashed in two, rushing Pai point blank a charged-up uninterrupted shot warms his chest.

Barely splitting his doom; zips of explosions tear apart. Lasers tear throughout cement, and breaking like puzzles the foundation crumbles in. Pai teleports above Rondo, slashing him through the floor crashing below. Teleporting over the tossed debris, Pai blitzes under Rondo.

“Solar flare!” Rondo spins above, although his arm expands out latching onto Pai’s face. Throwing Pai over him, Dash cuts down for Pai. “You’re mine,” says Dash.

“Move, don’t you get in his way!” Kel pulls Dash by the winds, slinging him down. “Pai! I got you," says Kel. Powerful currents congregate under her nose, an invisible barrier of wind spouting the young Vader, cutting for Rondo.

Pai connects a mighty punch right on Rondo’s chin; he’s darted across uncut grass. “Good luck, don't let that guy get the better of you.” Pai teleports away.

“This’ll be your last day!” Dash flies jetting to Kel, throwing bombs nearby. Kel manages to compress the explosion inside, yet the blast still goes off sending her out. “Trust, I won’t let that happen!”

Skating to the top, Taro stands before a colossal dull gate ahead. Is this the entrance? Placing both hands on the gate; trying to push it open, but it doesn’t move one bit, only dust.

Come on move you. Dammit if I could use ghost trigger, I’d blast this door easily.“How do you expect to beat me if you can’t even move this damn door?” Victor laughs.

The gate swings open pushing Taro back. Bugs crawl over a washed-out skeleton sitting down on the throne smiling. “You poor kid, why did you even come here, if you know the outcome for you? I didn't even have to do much,” giggled Victor.

Rushing for the entrance, it closes before him. Taro's feet glow in flames, as he runs back to the edge. Spirits cut over the mountain top, Taro launches both feet upon the gates. The entrance moves some. “That’s more like it, Taro. You trying so hard puts a big smile on my face.”

Taro throws multiple kicks upon the gate, moving it little by little. Dashing back again, Taro rockets for the gate. Like a bat out of hell, he breaks through.

Gasping for air, he says, “You're so damn annoying, I'm ready to shut you up already!" Victor’s bones pop from clapping. Taro stares down Victor, popping his fingers. Wasting no time, Taro launches over.

Taro’s White flames connect on Victor’s head. “No, no... Taro! This isn’t gonna cut it, what are you doing, show me something better!”Taro focuses his spirit energy on his fist. "Try this one!”

Smashing through the thick cobble throne, dust sprays out covering them. From the filled air, Taro’s launched out smashing into the wall. White aura flies from Taro’s mouth, bones split the dust uncovering the spirit.

Victor stands gripping two skeleton blades. “I’ll play with you for a little bit, I'm not that hungry yet. Let me work up a sweat first,” laughs Victor. Taro speeds for Victor, throwing his fiery kick as Victor swings the blades. Connecting blows the ground creaks under them both.

Spirit energy flows around the mountain. Taro swings for a pistol whip, but Victor dodges ducking under. The blade reaches for Taro’s neck. Kicking off Victor, pushing himself backward. “Where are you going? You’re finally making this fun for me.”

Punching Taro from below, Victor jumps up swinging for the head. Both hands flare into flames, catching the deadly strike. Swinging Victor onto the ground, Taro follows up with an ax kick linking to his torso. Victor is laid out flat lifeless. “Is it over?”

A blade cuts through Taro’s flesh, Hitting his side and shoulder.

“AHHHH! Taro looks at the blade inside his shoulder. Victor disappears from where he was. Blood runs down Victor’s arm lifting Taro upwards. Blood and Taro's sweat pours down the skeleton's jawbone.

Flinging him to the brick wall. Blood and spirit energy flee off his lips. More spirit energy spins among Victor’s body. Transforming into a horse from below. “Thanks for giving me an appetite. Let’s see what your spirit tastes like.”
