Sceldrant's Comet

by Michael Rogers

Luna: "Aha, fail!"

  Rachael: "Hehe-"

  *A man ran into the tavern, purposely catching everyone's attention.*

  ----------

  *Twortz walked down a stone corridor and noticed several warriors clustering at the entrance to a large dirt pit outside.*

  Twortz: "What is happening?"

  *A warrior with the number one hundred and thirty-one faced Twortz.*

  Warrior: "It's a very rare meeting with the Consultant and all our captains."

  Twortz: "All our captains?" *She stepped forward, slightly nervous and excited.* (I can't see from here if PKMY is there-)

  *Twortz started to walk forward, causing several of the warriors to gasp in shock.*

  Warrior: "You can't go out there!"

  Twortz: *She paused and looked over her shoulder, staring at the warriors in confusion.* ".. Why?"

  Warrior: "It's forbidden! You could even get killed for such disrespect!"

  Twortz: "I see."

  *Twortz proudly walked into the massive arena-like dirt pit and stared at the line of captain classed warriors, catching several of their attention.*

  Kath: *She glanced over the captain's shoulders and stepped forward, glaring at Twortz.* "This is a captain classed meeting. If you wish to discuss anything, you are to wait in Sorrowprax, regardless of its importance!"

  Twortz: "Actually-" *She stopped behind the line of warriors and looked at Kath, placing her hands behind her back.* "I am here to become a captain."

  *Several of the captains snickered, causing Kath to raise her arm which caused them to become silent.*

  Kath: "You poor girl, thinking you-" *She paused in disbelief.* "What is your ranking?" *She spoke on her breath.*

  Twortz: "I'm currently ranked two hundred and twenty."

  Kath: *She chuckled in an evil-like manner.* "How unfathomable."

  Twortz: *She quickly bowed down to one knee, lowering her head.* "I will give you all my respect. I will do as you ask. I will be your most loyal captain."

  Kath: "Hmph. I like the drive, but, you are far too weak."

  Twortz: "Weak?"

  Kath: "There is a reason why the rankings are-"

  Twortz: *She waved her hand and blasted one of the captains off her feet, causing several gasps to be heard.* "I can reassure you, lady Consultant, that I am not weak."

  ?????: *A man stepped forward and stared at Twortz.* "To attack a captain is foolish. But to attack a captain in the presence of the number one, suicide."

  Kath: "Cameron, that is all."

  Cameron: *He glanced at Kath, nodding his head in respect.* "As you desire, ma'am." *He spoke with an emotionless face and stood back in line.*

  Twortz: (So that man is the number one?)

  ?????: "Grrr!" *The captain Twortz knocked off her feet growled in rage.* "Ma'am. With your permission, can I feed this peasant to the Scoldrants!?"

  Twortz: "Hahackee.." *She chuckled in a condescending-like manner.*

  Kath: "Very well." *She clapped her hands and pushed her glasses up with one finger.* "Nancy, do as you will."

  Nancy: "Bwohohoho. You're dead-"

  Cameron: "With respect, we are in the middle of an important meeting-"

  Kath: "Everyone, watch from the higher level balconies." *She nudged her head upwards and suddenly flashstepped, causing a pulse of dirt to blow where she stood.*

  Cameron: "Tcch."

  *A woman with long blonde hair glanced at Cameron in confusion.*

  Woman: "Captain?"

  Cameron: "Despite my ranking, Cindy. She is the Consultant-"

  Cindy: "Yes. Sisters, let's go!-" *She suddenly flashstepped, causing two other women to disappear out of the dirt pit.*

  *A woman with silver hair licked her lips in excitement, revealing slightly sharp teeth.*

  ?????: "How exciting-"

  Twortz: *She glanced at the silver-haired woman in confusion.* "..."

  ?????: "Nancy is a boss out of your league, hahehahe." *She flicked her ponytail over her shoulder and suddenly disappeared, causing a swirl of dirt to pulse where she stood.*

  Nancy: *She watched all the captains flashstep, leaving only her and Twortz.* "Bwohoho. Let's have some fun, you dirty lamp."

  Twortz: "Such language while on the job is completely unprofessional."

  Nancy: "You ready to die?"

  Twortz: *She smiled.* "I'd like to see you try-"

  Nancy: *She suddenly appeared behind Twortz in the air, swaying her leg for a sweeping kick.* "Hah!"

  Twortz: *She quickly spun around and leant back in a dancer-like fashion, avoiding the kick.* "Hahackee-"

  Nancy: "Hah!" *She landed on the ground and punched the dirt, causing a massive tower sized brown snake to slither into the air.*

  Twortz: *She looked up in shock, as the snake's shadow caused the temperature to drop around her.* "Sonic Rush."

  *Twortz swayed her hand to the side and blew a scattered shock wave at the serpent, causing her to slide back.*

  Twortz: *She watched the serpent hiss, as chunks of its underbelly fell off its body.* (Hahackee! Despite its size, it was rather weak-)

  Nancy: *She smirked evil-like and sprinted through the disintegrating snake.* (There's nothing she can do to keep herself alive!)

  Cameron: *He looked to his side, noticing a woman with pink, blue and blonde hair talking amongst themselves.* "What is the fuss, Mindy, Cindy and Wendy?"

  Cindy: *She swayed her long yellow hair, glancing at the arena.* "Why did she get rid of that amazing summon?"

  Wendy: *She twirled her finger through her pink hair.* "I would've totally kept it ongoing."

  Mindy: *She nodded her head.* "Yeah!"

  Cameron: *He stared at Mindy's short green hair.* "She has the ability to use one time only summons."

  Wendy: "That's stupid-"

  Cameron: "Negative. It uses one-fifth of the Neuron usage usually used to perform a summon. It is how she became number two of the captains."

  Cindy: "So-"

  ?????: *She glared at the sisters with her cold silver eyes.* "How about you watch the match that's already out of your league, and perhaps you could actually learn something? We all know you won't ever make it past the sixth ranking."

  Cindy: *She formed fists, as if she wanted to fight.* "Yes, Sofia."

  Sofia: "Haheahe."

  Nancy: *She flashstepped in front of Twortz, raising her arm.* "I summon thee, LIGHTNING STRIKE"

  Twortz: *She looked up with a gasp.* "Sacred dance, Sphere of Might." *She tapped her foot on the ground, causing an expanding sphere to blast around her.*

  *Lightning suddenly struck down from the sky and hit the sound barrier, amplifying the lightning's thunder.*

  Cindy: "L-Loud-"

  Twortz: (She's strong!) *She watched the lightning string around the sound sphere, before bursting away.* (But when was the last time she trained her skills?)

  Nancy: *She flashstepped by Twortz's side and suddenly kicked towards her face.* "Bwoho-"

  Twortz: "Sacred dance, Defence Up." *She curled her knuckles back and placed her arms together in front of her without even facing Nancy.*

  Nancy: *She kicked the side of Twortz's face and watched dirt spiral past her head.* "Huh?"

  Twortz: "Done?"

  Nancy: (Her face feels like stone?!) *She back flipped away from Twortz.*

  Twortz: *She spun around and raised her arms, facing Nancy.* "I noticed this Azure Burst acts differently when I don't have my weapon released-"

  Nancy: (Those Neurons!-) *She frowned and suddenly held a blue pearl in her hand.* "Go!"

  *A splash of water shot out of the ground behind Nancy, as a silver dolphin-like Scoldrant dived in and out of the sand, as if it was water.*

  Twortz: "Sacred dance, Lymph's Wave." *She lowered both her arms and an invisible wave crashed down on top of Nancy, forcing her onto her knees.*

  Nancy: "What?!" *She watched the sand continuously blow away from her.* "I can't move-"

  Twortz: "I've spent th
e last two years training to kill a captain.. You're nothing but just an obstacle."

  Nancy: "Silence!"

  Twortz: "Telling a Score User to be quiet? Hahahackeeee!"

  *Twortz laughed with a loud echo and spun around, generating visible sound strings.*

  Twortz: "Everybody makes these mistakes!" *She continued to spin around in a dancer-like manner.*

  Cindy: "What is she doing?" *She looked at Twortz in confusion.*

  Sofia: "Generating Astragons.. Isn't it obvious to you? Hahehahe."

  Twortz: "Sealed scores, Silencing Blast." *She froze her entire body movement and the swirling strings suddenly rippled towards Nancy.*

  Nancy: "You think two years can compete with my forty years as a warrior?!"

  *A large stone golem suddenly materialised in front of Nancy and withstood the swirling strings, before exploding into nothing.*

  Nancy: (Making me use my defensive wall already-) *She stood up and flicked her long brown hair which was wrapped in a ponytail over her back.*

  Twortz: *She spun around and waved her arm, blowing a scattered shock wave behind her.* "Sonic Rush." *She shouted with an echoing voice and watched the silver dolphin-like Scoldrant dive up into the shock wave.*

  Nancy: *She listened to the dolphin's squeaks, as it exploded into nothing.* (She knew where Fin-Fin was going to strike-?!)

  Twortz: "Sacred scores-" *She formed a triangle with her fingers and took a deep breath, waiting for Nancy to move out of the dirt cloud.*

  Nancy: *She suddenly flashstepped away from the dirt cloud and held a green pearl.* "Binding Vines."

  Twortz: "Sonic Pulsar." *She breathed into her fingers, blasting a vortex of sound towards Nancy.*

  *Thick green vines suddenly shot out of a Spacial Funnel behind Nancy and exploded yellow wax, as the vortex of sound hit it.*

  Kath: "What did she say her ranking was?" *She smiled in an impressed-like manner, observing Twortz's battle movements.*

  Cameron: "Two hundred and twenty, ma'am."

  Kath: "Do you sense anything strange, Zephyr?"

  Zephyr: *He looked at Twortz and focused, causing his visual perspective to change, allowing him to see aura-like energy swirl within her body.* "N-No, ma'am."

  Kath: (So she's not corrupt, like Zayden.) *She glanced at a man who intensely stared at Nancy and Twortz, as drool oozed out from the side of his mouth.* (Excellent.)

  Nancy: *She watched the Spacial Funnel behind her warp before distorting into nothing.* (Where did the Spacial Funnel go-?!)

  Twortz: "The look on your face." *She smirked.* "I've learnt how to change the harmonic frequency to any of my attacks. I've simply cancelled your Spacial Funnel."

  Nancy: (She cancelled the Spacial Funnel through harmonic frequencies? Is that possible?)

  Twortz: "Rather unprofessional for someone who's worked more than, what was that? Forty years? To not know-"

  Nancy: "Arthur, dinner is ready." *She glared at Twortz in anger, ignoring a large blue orb which materialised in her hand.*

  Cameron: (This is one of her actual Summonce Scarbras-)

  Twortz: (That snake from before!-) *She frowned in recollection.*

  Nancy: "Use your Remenistal!"

  *A large green snake suddenly materialised around Nancy and leant up, glaring at Twortz.*

  Arthur: "HYDRO CANNONs-" *It opened its jaw and hissed, blasting out a cannon of water at Twortz.*

  Nancy: "Bwohohoho."

  Zayden: *He leant forward with a widening smile.* "Look at the volume of water! Bwahrargh!"

  Twortz: *She took a deep breath and screamed.* "Sonic Roar."

  *The cannon of water exploded before coming into contact with Twortz, causing her echoing scream to gargle.*

  Nancy: (She seems to have a counter to a lot of different techniques!-) *She raised both arms and reached over her head, smirking with anticipation.*

  Cameron: (She's going to release her weapon.)

  Nancy: "Let's see if you have a counter to this!" *She pulled both arms forward, watching a swirl of sparks scatter from a blue sceptre shaped as a lightning bolt in her hands.*

  Sofia: "Ooo, her level just increased?"

  Kath: "Silence. You are the role models, the leaders of this entire organisation. You all should be able to gather and answer your questions from watching this fight alone!"

  Twortz: (A sceptre? Is she a Rostical User-?)

  Nancy: "Bwohohoho." *She looked behind Twortz and watched a swirl in the air suddenly blast a hurricane towards her.*

  Twortz: *She looked over her shoulder, hiding her surprise.* (What is that-?!) *The fat in her face suddenly rolled back, as if she was skydiving.*

  Nancy: *She smirked, watching Twortz slide back with an obvious struggle.* "Bwohoho! Arthur, you know what to do."

  *A cannon of water suddenly blasted Twortz in the back, crashing her along the ground.*

  Twortz: *She squealed in pain, as the high pressured gust of wind blew around the water, suddenly amplifying its power.* (Tsst-)

  Kath: "This fight is over.." *She spoke with disappointment.*

  Sofia: "Tssk tssk tssk. Challenging the number two-" *She turned around, as if she was bored with the battle.*

  Nancy: *She swirled the lightning shaped sceptre, watching violent swirls of water and wind blow around Twortz.* (I've got her in an inescapable rip.. She'll be dead soon enough-)

  Twortz: *She tumbled in a powerful current which was boosted by the unusual winds.* "Everybody makes these mistakes! Sealed scores-"

  *Twortz sung on her breath to avoid any water going into her mouth, continuing to tumble in Nancy's rip.*

  Twortz: (Don't ever laugh at me!-) *She violently grabbed her hands into the ground, causing the swirling movement around her to burst the water away.*

  Sofia: "Game over, hahehahehahe-"

  Twortz: "Silencing Blast."

  Cameron: (Silencing Blast, that was the same Azure Burst she used to gather Astragons via a swirling motion.. She used her disadvantage to gain the upper hand-)

  Nancy: "How have you not drowned?"

  Twortz: *She took deep breaths and slowly stood up, dripping with water.* "I'm a warrior by spirit!" *She kicked the ground, causing all the water to pulse off her body.*

  Nancy: "Fine! Ougi." *She crossed her arms, causing a massive aurora coloured pearl to materialise in front of her.*
