Smash Civil War

[finalark]

Hmmm. Looks like Cutter's down and out. Wait, what have Frown, Lythium, Miss Yuna and Tyciol been doing while all of this is going on? Drinking Tea?

Now that I think about it, we currently have four major stories going on. The one with Cutter VS. Killjoy (that just ended), Toiletluigi and friends VS the baddies (I'm not sure if that's ended yet), Teran and pals in Media Metropolis and the previously mentioned Frown, Lythium, ect. crew. Actually, how many of the last few chapters have been fighting? This is starting to turn into Dragonball Z...

Anyway, you did a great job on that chapter Cutter.

 

[Heartz♥]

I'll try to clear up on some stuff soon. I've been working on my novel and it somehow caused a writer's block for this one. Yeah, weird.

 

[cutter]

Yeah, I think it's safe to say I'm done for sure.

I loved every single second of writing up that chapter though. If I were an actual awesome artist, I would do full-blown illustrations of it .

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

speaking of art has anyone made any art for the story yet?

Edit: Cutter I'm expecting it by tomorrow or your FIRED!

Hey, when you guys are in college like I am, you don't get the free time like you used to. Now that I'm a sophomore though, I know pretty well how to manage my time in work + school and still being able to do the awesome stuff I love to do.

So here we go. Teh Icebreaker!

An illustration from Chapter 54:

[Morrigan]

Is that flaco? That person is so weird.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

lol great pic Cutter I guess your not Fired.... yet.

 

[cutter]

Despite my limitations as an artist, I was bound and determined to draw something.

...which might lead into other picture. No guarantees though; I've broken the ice for all you guys

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

I promised Cutter I would write something today.

Chapter 55: The North

A caravan is just entered a city with enormous walls on one side and mountains on the other side. The climate is freezing cold with Snow and Ice anywhere you could see. Air suddenly wakes up in a moving wagon after being beaten nearly to death.

"Uuug what happened? One minute I'm at the castle and the next I wind up in this cart." Air then took a second to study his surroundings."Oh praise the god's! I guess my lucks has finally changed! I'm in the very city Lord Straked Presides."

Air weaved around town to find the entrance Capital building. The building was made of the finest marble, it had towered over the city as it was taller than the walls that protect it. People from all around SWF could see the tower miles away, as it was the towns finest achievement. Air discovered a back entrance leading into the plaza, but unfortunately, there were two soldiers guarding it.

"Hmm how am I supposed to get past them?" Air thought to himself. "Oh I got it!" right as he was about to make his move another guard becomes visible.

"Hey you two come with me we need help unloading this caravan." The guard said to the others guarding the door.

"My luck just keeps on getting better and better." Air said in his head

He entered into a corridor that lead directly into the main plaza. As he entered he heard two men talking, reacting as quickly as he could, he hid behind a marble column. It appeared that the two men are Straked and one of his generals.

"Hee hee hee. Getting knocked unconscious was the best thing to ever happen to me." Air thought.

When suddenly, the door to the main plaza burst open! It was a runner, who looked exhausted as if he went through hell just to get into the city.

"Straked *pant* my lord, *pant pant* News from *pant* Media Metropolis!" The runner said breathing heavily as he finished the sentence.

"Well get on with it." Straked said, in an annoyed tone.

"They *pant* are *pant* under *pant* attack! *Wheeze*"

"Hmm perfect time the caravan has just arrived too. Get the troops ready were going to strike the Queen while she's at her weakest! Without her army to protect her we'll drive right through and end her reign of terror."

As he was speaking to the General, Straked heard a giggle on the far side of the room. Straked walked towards the high pitched laugh with his sword drawn.

 

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty **** sure Air died.

Also, it's a bit annoying to read your chapters since you always switch tenses and stuff.

Retcon, ftw.

But seriously, Sephi, pick a tense before you write!

Capter 54 Cont.

Straked approached the column from which he heard the telltale giggle. Air heard footsteps come closer and closer, there was no escape. He looked around fanatically in hopes of finding a way out, as he stun around, he came face-to-face with a much, much taller, much more intimidating man. Straked was a good six inches taller than Air, his silvery ropes concealed his entire body, a hood hid his head, and on his face he wore a white mask with nothing on it but slits for his eyes.

"It looks like we have a spy!" shouted Straked. As if on command, every guard in the area surrounded Air, ready to take him into custody. Air knew that this was it, he decided that he might as well not fight. Suddenly, a voice came into his head, it was strict, demanding, cold, and it sounded almost exactly like Killjoy. Only there was something about the voice that didn't quite seem right, but Air decided to ignore this as the Queen told him, "Air, where are you!"

"I'm in the north, in the city where Straked rules!" thought Air, terrified and unsure of where the Queen got this new power."

"Excellent! I want you to get caught, thrown into the dungeon, to that you might just be able to give me the information I need. Do this for me, and I will reward you greatly, if you refuse, I will send you to your own personal hell!"

"Yes, my Queen! I know that they're planning to launch an attack on your castle while the conflict in Media Metropolis is going on."

"**** it! Air, I want more information, get it to me by tomorrow at noon! I'll be checking in then."

Air obeyed his Queens orders, and was thrown into the dungeon. He now was desperate for a way to fulfill his Queen's wishes. Be he also wanted to know what Straked was hiding to wear such curious garbs...

Also, great art, Cutter.

Still, discrediting what someone else wrote in a community story isn't really the best thing to do.

Also, it doesn't seem like he did that on purpose.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty **** sure Air died.

I'm sorry about how I suck at writing but could you state it nicely please and read this if you think air died.

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

Oh ****, my bad. I read another post that said Air died. Whoops.

Also, are we purposefully not supposed to know which city Air/Straked are in?

 

[finalark]

Oh ****, my bad. I read another post that said Air died. Whoops.

I'm going to leave that up to the next guy who writes.

That is, if this entire thread isn't compleately abandoned by then.

 

[Mewter]

Just so you guys know, that **** (asterisks) guy in my first chapter was Scav.

 

[Zajice]

I just checked this out. I didn't know I was in it.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

With the help of Vrael I made the chapter sound a little better please help me if their is more that I missed

Sephiroths Masamune, that should be chapter 55, since my suicide is the actual chapter 54.

Chapter 56: Hit and Run

The Black Guard had opened fire on the soldiers as arrows started to fill air, some of them exploding as the casualties started to mount.

"Fall back, FALL BACK!" bellowed Teran back to his fellow soldiers.

The order came not a moment too soon. The civilians of Media Metropolis began to retreat from the field from where the two armies had converged as they started back into the city. Teran knew they couldn't afford to lose any more men.

"Why are we running away from them?!?" yelled Sasukebowser to Teran. "And what about SamuraiPanda?"

"Let them come to us, not the other way around!" replied Teran as all of them hustled back to the ruined city. "They outnumber us with their two combined armies and they are almost certainly better trained than us in combat. The only way to even the odds is to resort to guerrilla warfare. We know the layout of the urban environment better than they do! And as for SamuraiPanda, we can't worry about him right now; he'll be most certainly alive!"

"And how would you know that for sure?"

"Because the Queen enjoys torturing and tormenting her victims -- especially fugitives and traitors -- for days on end. I've heard some unbelievably gruesome stories about it, but now's not the time for too much more talk! We need to assemble a legitimate battle plan!"

The city was just yards away now. The Black Guard soldiers certainly weren't going to catchup to them. They were much more laiden in heavy armor and their larger unit meant significantly decreased mobility. Both Bionic Sonic and Bunny were blindfiring spells behind them, hoping to buy any amount of time they could get.

Despite Media Metropolis being in ruins from the rebellion that broke out against the Black Guard, the entire area was ripe for setting up an ambush. As the rest of the soldiers started to catch up with Teran's squad, he directed himself to everyone, ready to give the order on what to do next. It was a good thing he had the charisma to do such a thing.

 

[cutter]

Well in that case, I'll have the next chapter up by tonight. This is too good of a story for you guys to throw to the curb

EDIT: School and work ate up the time I would have posted this. Expect my chapter edited into here sometime on Friday night.

 

[Elder Sister]

haha maybe ill decide to write another chapter.

im excited how this will turn out

 

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

Once I'm done with preparing for/taking finals I'll start writing for this.

I've been busy

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

lol is everyone on writers block?

 

[Reaver197]

lol, This looks hilarious.

 

[cutter]

This will be short, as it's 3 in the morning here and I should just desperately get some sleep considering the week for me has been like a constant blur.

Chapter 57: The Path of Least Resistance

SamuraiPanda, still fettered by the handcuffs, was bound almost completely to the horse he was tied to. His horse was galloping by itself, surrounded by Black Guard soldiers on horses close to him as well. Scav was at the front, with a few of his lackeys around. A shady forest started to materialize as the dense foliage began to tower over the escort.

Scav signaled everyone else to stop. He quickly dismounted, and then pulling his sword, stabbed the ground right in front of a dead tree that was easily discernable from the rest of the forest. A gaping hole materialized and grew in diameter until it become big enough in the ground for a horse to clear through.

"Move out!" ordered Scav. SamuraiPanda could just barely make out what had happened with the corner of his eye. Darkness quick took over as the Black Guard unit swiftly entered the extraneous trap door.

"Where are we exactly going again?" asked one of the Black Guard soldiers in an apprehensive manner. It was quite obvious from his tone of voice that he was very new to the Black Guard.

"I told ya private, this is a secret entrance directly into the Queen's palace!" replied Scav heartily. "Beats going through the front door any day of the week!"

Even though the ground where they were underneath was now completely black, it was almost as if an invisible force guided everyone at an accelerating velocity to where the Queen's palace was. SamuraiPanda dreaded what was to come with would be an inevitable encounter with Her.

 

[cutter]

Well ****... guess I'll just have to finish this whole story myself.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

Don't worry Cutter I'll help............... eventually.

 

[Espy Rose]

This is without a doubt, one of the funniest things I've encountered on Smashboards. Good job, guys.

 

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

I'll be writing in about a week, when finals are over. They end Wednesday, and I have Thursday and Friday to do whatever I want, so I promise I'll have a chapter or two up then.

 

[finalark]

I'll be adding in my bit some time, it's just right now I'm not sure what to say. I think we just kind of have everything at a stalemate or is in an otherwise uninteresting situation.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

I think someone needs to update the OP and also do a second list of characters.

 

[Jam Stunna]

That's not going to happen anytime soon. I haven't even read anything since chapter 30.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

That's not going to happen anytime soon. I haven't even read anything since chapter 30.

That sucks, You better start reading soon.

 

[Heartz♥]

That sucks, You better start reading soon.

He's not Gaius Frakkin' Balthar anymore. He is black again, so don't expect him to take initiative.


lolol jkjkjk. That was awful.

 

[cutter]

Time to get the gears turning.

Chapter 58: Kick 'em When They're Down

The doors to the throne room burst open again. Despite the massive explosion from Cutter's fuel cell, the doors for the most part were still intact and working properly. A figure burst through, almost ready to gasp from exhaustion.

"Queen Killjoy Queen Killjoy!" he exclaimed, "I just got back from Media Metropolis and --" before he could say anything else, he collapsed to the ground on all fours. His face was shockingly distorted; most likely from a combination of his fatigue and the sight of him seeing the throne room in complete ruination. His face stared blankly in the distance.

"And?" remarked Queen Killjoy.

"...and --" he was deseperately gasping for air and then coughed hardly a few times. The throne room was still somewhat dusty from Cutter's violent suicide.

"and we're engaged with the civilians there, and Teran has confirmed to be there!"

"Shut the **** up Eor. No one cares, especially me."

Eor regained his breath by now and was able to continue, but with a sense of hesitation.

"Out of curiosity my Lady, why do you say that?"

"It figures. You're out of the loop like usual. I can communicate with my lackeys directly. There's no need for people like you to puke their guts out by going halfway across the country."

Eor's face became crestfallen. "So... you're saying... my Lady... I don't serve a purpose anymore?"

"Yes, and no."

"Now what do you mean my Lady?"

"Why does your brain have to be the size of a ****ing pea? You should know exactly what the hell I'm talking about."

"Your work has changed, Eor. I want you to rebuild and clean my throne room by hand. No magic." she emphasized with a somewhat dangerous tone. "I want to see my face in the floor. Got it?" she snapped.

"Yesss... my Lady," groaned Eor.

"Get off," demanded Queen Killjoy. She kicked Eor right in the chest as he feel to the floor, grunting in pain. "Get off -- You get off when you're listening to me you got it?" she continued, stomping her right foot on the back of Eor. The heel sunk into his body, and he writhed in pain.

"I'm not asking you to. I'm telling you to," Queen Killjoy said in a slightly vehemant tone.

"Absolutely my Lady," cried Eor in pain. He started to crawl slowly away, and Queen Killjoy immediately saw it.

"QUIT MOVING AROUND WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!" yelled Queen Killjoy as she stomped her heel right into the back of Eor's right thigh. He shrieked in pain even harder than ever.

"You know what you have to do," continued Queen Killjoy. "So do it."

"Yes... my... Lady," said Eor.

"Go down to the second floor and grab the utilities necessary to get the job done. Even you'll know what they'll be. Ok? OK?!?" snapped Queen Killjoy as she stomped even harder down on Eor, this time right on his left buttock. Eor was in so much pain at this moment that he couldn't even utter any kind of sound as if his vocal cords were in shock.

"Get out of my sight," said Queen Killjoy haughtily.

It took a while, but Eor eventually regained the power to raise himself back up and exit the throne room. The areas where he was brutally stomped by the Queen's high heels were throbbing with nearly unbearable pain as he slowly opened the door to leave. He miserably contemplated the daunting task he had ahead.

 

[Frown]

What is Frown doing right now? Is he being tortured or something?

 

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

I don't even know. That storyline was too complicated for me, I just kind of avoided it completely.

 

[cutter]

Frown is with Lythium and Miss Yuna as they are exorcising the soul of Tyciol and some other random entity.

Some how, I know how I can eventually tie all these loose ends and stories all together by the time this story is over with .

I believe that Yuna left in a ray of light and Tycoil and the other entity (now named Ultima) left in a portal of darkness.
