My name is David page, for a long time now I’ve been the butt of many jokes. That ends today however as the old lame Dave is dead and all that is left is me. The world is my oyster and I shall suckle on it until nothing is left but the shell. For I am the world and today my friends have to die.
“You!” shouted Tazer tigress in shock
“It can’t be!” shouted phazar puma
“You know it is so stop this cod comic book bullshit….” snapped the world angrily as he pinned both taze and phaze to the wall
“And don’t bother trying to phaze it won’t work…I’m blocking your powers,” he turned to the others who were standing in horror. “And that goes triple for all of you fools,”
“I don’t get it why did you take us out of our world!” shouted Frozen
“the insect will be silent unless I speak to him,” muttered the world who then swung a right hook at frozen cutting him in the head and throwing him head first into a wall.
“Frozen!” shouted Tc
“That’s for everything you’re going to do to my doppelganger!” shouted the world angrily he then snapped his fingers and Mr Sun and Mr Moon moved
“You know what you need to do….remove their powers and then toss them back to their world,”
“We live to serve don’t we Mr Moon,”
“Indeed we do Mr Sun!”
The two oddly shaped villains held each others hands and then pointed at the three pop heroes and the three of them disappeared with the sun and the moon disappearing afterwards.
“As for the rest of you….my soldiers will have their fun with each of you!” grinned the world as each and every member of the arcane and the monks disappeared leaving just the world and copymatt behind.
“Matt,” grinned the world holding up his hand but Matt quickly jumped over to the world and punched him in the face. He continued to attack and the world continued to stare at matt with a sad expression on his face until finally he just struck matt down drawing blood as he did so.
“You fool….I was gonna let you go back to your family, you could go and have a happy life unmolested by me as I granted to Lazer lion. But you struck me…..now you’ll never see your family again…..
Meanwhile
Frozen, Tc and Gary tumbled out of the portal and on the floor. They stared up at the two villains who held their arms up ready to suck the abilities out of the heroes when frozen actually shot ice out of his arms trapping Mr Sun and Mr Moon in ice.
“Whoa….how the fuck did that happen?”
“Well the world did say we manifested new powers after coming here,” sighed frozen
“So what the hell do I do?” asked Tc
Elsewhere
“Impressive; thought that would have squashed you for sure.”
Kukai turns to see a hulking red humanoid before him wielding mallets in each hand as tomoe circle behind him.
“Raijin?! Wait, no... you're some... imitation...”
“More than enough for you, old one.”
Lightning fills his eyes as he appears directly in front of his opponent when a burst of sound sends the old man back. The Sennin grunts as he rights himself while the tendrils of the sludge monster seek to ensnare him.
“Glob didn't appear to like you blasting him apart; he maybe invincible, but he can still feel pain. Ha ha ha!”
The Hermit closes his eyes and recites a chant as Glob freezes.
“Impressive...” passes Raijin's lips as he appears beside Kukai in a flash of light while the pair trades blows.
“Standing up to the strength of a Kami? You are full of surprises.”
As Raijin finishes his sentence, Kukai palm strikes his opponent into the chest and the explosive attack sends the red giant crashing into the rock below. The Hermit lands on his right big toe atop a rock ledge while Raijin stirs from the blow.
“It would appear the threat requires the full Brothers Storm.”
The voice dances on the wind like an echo before the sage notices a similar looking but blue Kami floating off the mountain's edge holding a large, open bag behind him near Raijin. A similar green Kami raises beside him on a platform of water as his hair dances like snakes and a kanabo rests at his side.
“I see... aberrations of Fujin and Suijin join the battle. Thunder, Wind, and Water, the Brothers Storm.”
Fujin snickers as Raijin raises standing beside his brothers. The wind god begins the assault, sailing like a bullet at the old man while dancing around his attacks laughing all the while. Raijin appears seemingly out of nowhere as the boom of his thunder and blast of wind from Fujin hit Kukai hard as he's caught in the middle. He narrowly escapes a swing from Suijin's massive club and uses the kinetic force of it to land on the ground. Saying a quick chant, he slaps the ground and it shakes. Below, dozens of books are shaken in their cases and fall to the ground. A snout rises before a mouth, mouth full of teeth as the snout greets eyes, and a head emerges atop a massive neck, ever growing as Kukai takes his place behind the beast's head holding on to its emerging horns. The Brothers Storm is taken aback, but redoubles themselves and prepare for the earth dragon's assault.
A massive stream of lava gushes past the lips of the dragon while the old man puts his hands together in prayer, balancing the staff with his thumbs. The Brothers Storm and Glob scatter as the once frail, emaciated form of Kukai is replaced with a hulking behemoth. Crashing his lantern on the back of the dragon, it shatters into several balls of fire that encircle the Hermit. Leaping from the back of his steed, Kukai smashes his staff against the mallets of Raijin creating a massive burst of sound.
“Now you're putting up a fight!”
The words come like a growl out of the red Kami's mouth as the Sennin raises his staff and violently turns towards an upward strike. The blow narrowly misses Raijin as he twists and is pushed by the blow's force. Electricity arcs between his mallets as a loud boom erupts from around his body and he pushes forward. Kukai and Raijin trade blows at a frightful speed before the elder pulls back as the flames surrounding him twirl into a circle and a massive blast of fire strikes Raijin true. As the smoke clears, Raijin begins to lower his arms he raised in defense, now singed and blackened, but its sight is eclipsed by the white fangs of the beast's demented smile. Opening his mouth in a perverse way as his tongue hulks downward, a crack of lightning passes his lips as Kukai's flames close to block it. The force proves too much and the Sennin is pushing back several yards while his feet drag and raise a cloud of dust.
Suijin drops down like an anvil from the sky with his kanabo in hand towards the crown of the dragon. His efforts are meant with the massive end of the creature's tail and the green Kami is sent flying over the cliff. Brother Fujin dances like a leaf twirling in the wind before a sudden stop and punches strikes like a punch to the dragon's stone face and sends his head aback, lava burping upward and falling like rain while causing ash to gingerly flake and cascade as black snow. Glob darts the landscape avoiding the lava rain piking up into a spike that digs deeply into the underbelly of the massive mountain serpent. It screeches in pain before its claws swipe and cut its attacker into several round slabs. Fujin is not without receiving retribution as the beast coils with frightening speed and crush the wind from his body as he hits the ground limp. Snow rises like a wave over the edge of the mountain's cliff as Suijin, the top of his kimono torn from his torso, rides atop it with a frightful demeanor upon his brow. His great cudgel gone, blades of ice form on his arms as he lashes them before and jets of water spin like ribbon towards the surprised earth dragon. The beast lunges forward exhaling a stream of lava that forms rock and steam against the violent water swirls. Suijin runs atop the falling column of hot stone before running under the mouth of the serpent, dragging his blades on its rough surface and screaming. The dragon thrashes trying to dislodge its attacker, but the Kami continues to run and cut as scales of rock flare about his dash.
Raijin grins as he awaits the dust to disperse, but instead he meets with bewilderment. Kukai's fingers are intertwined save the index fingers which instead point forward pressed together. At blurring speed, further hand signs are made as words are barked out and characters form behind the elder upon blinding discs of light; “Rin,” “Pyo,” “To,” “Sha,” “Kai,” “Jin,” “Retsu,” “Zai,” “Zen.” The red Kami realizes the chant and its power, though not understanding to what end, and tries to react but it proves too late. Screaming “Ko!”, the world becomes white and shapes around merely become lines. Everything drags slowly against space as a line of explosions trail from the Hermit towards Raijin, seeming pulled in a horrific vacuum as the spoken characters appear spinning before his eyes as the area around him detonates. A whirlwind dissolves around the imitation God of Thunder as both fighters stand still while the world tries to catch up with them. Space contorts back to what it was as Kukai exhales and Raijin collapses.
Lava gushes from the wounds created by Suijin. Glob reforms and pounces on the injured prey, digging like a gelatin vice that wrenches against the stone plates of the dragon and announce an unsavory “crunch.” The earth dragon darts towards the sky and cries in agony. Suijin turns to face the great beast and forms a massive bow and arrow of ice upon his arms. The attack falls into the gaze of the serpentine construct as its roar shakes the ground and its teeth bite at the air before it as if it builds momentum like someone stomping against the ground in a full charge. The arrow is released some few dozen yards before it tastes vengeance and strikes the throat of the dragon as its neck erupts with molten magma. It's taken aback, its life's fluid oozing in violent bursts, but shaking it still lunges to consume Suijin. As its brown, curved stalagmites and stalactites threaten to achieve its goal, a battered Fujin appears before his brother and a massive fist of air flies from his flung sack to travel down the dragon's throat, its body torn asunder in all directions as the attack reaches to the tip of its tail and leave a great mass of stones in its wake. Glob rises amongst the rubble in arching streams of fluid that abound towards the two brothers and reforms at their feet.
The earth rattles again as steam arises from the dirt and stones and a scream rings out. The three turn to see a hulking mass with red eyes. A third eye, sideways and both above and between the two eyes, opens as the three eyes go white while the steam clears to show Kukai with Raijin collapsed behind him. Fujin pulls a scarf from his kimono as talons of ice emerge from the fingers of Suijin and grow a foot in length. Glob whips around them and shoots forward, the brothers running just behind it, crossing each others paths before bolting ahead. The Sennin swings his right arm before him as a wave of energy domes before as the three allies jump above it. Kukai steps back on his left foot and brings his arms together on his left side before stepping forward on his right foot violently as his palms jut suddenly ahead and stop the Kami in mid-air. Glob breaks through but falls into an orb of energy in the elder's hands as he quickly twists them into movements around the globe and drops the creature into a consistently spinning form.
Suijin and Fujin are quickly upon the Major Arcana member as ice claws nearly cleave into his chest and a scarf spinning like a drill nearly bores deep into his gut. Stomping his foot, the Kami are pushed back as the three begin to trade a flurry of blows. No blows catch more than a glancing strike; Kukai leaps back with both palms outstretched before the Brothers and fingers pointing at each other as a blast of energy erupts from the third eye and cuts off the claws on Suijin's right hand. Pulling back, the green and blue giants defensively encircle their opponent. Tomoe spin behind the Kami and balls of flame dance around the old man. Kukai grabs one of the balls and the set form into a chain of large, heavy beads. Forming a scythe of ice in his hands, Suijin rushes towards the old man slashing low as Fujin spins his scarf aiming for the neck of his opponent. A flash of read shatters the curved blade and rips away the scarf as it explodes the air around setting the Brother ablaze. On their backs desperately trying to put the flames out, Kukai smirks as he begins to swirl his beads about building momentum. Leaping on all fours like cats, the Kami take to the air as the beads crash upon the ground where they lay and the area erupt in fire. Suijin, noticeably slower, runs to the edge of the mountaintop and summons as much snow as he can to encase his body in. The blue Kami runs opposite his brother as howling winds fill his bag and he floats beyond the edge. Kukai holds the beads to the sky as they levitate and he chants as a bird of fire grows from the fire. This phoenix streaks at the hill of snow encasing the imitation Water god but is pulled back by some invisible force. The Sennin groans as an orb of wind surrounds the summit, tearing the fire apart as it shrinks upon him. He goes to move, but he is pinned in place and can do nothing to stop the air pulled from his lungs and blacks out. Quickly, the snow flashes like a wave off of the green Kami and hits like a giant dragging arrow of white that hits the Major Arcana in the center of the battlefield and encases him in clear ice.
Badly beaten, Suijin summons his kanabo and smashes it on the still spinning Glob, setting him free. Likewise, Fujin goes to the side of his crimson skinned brother and brings him to. A slow clap comes from the cliff's edge as a man in a red robe glides forward into view.
“Well done, my elite soldiers. You've brought the mighty Kukai to his knees.”
A wave of his bandaged hand slices and casts away ice to leave the Sennin merely shackled in ice for his arms and legs. Coming to, the Hermit is surprised at the sight that greets him.
“Who...?”
“You!” shouted Tazer tigress in shock
“It can’t be!” shouted phazar puma
“You know it is so stop this cod comic book bullshit….” snapped the world angrily as he pinned both taze and phaze to the wall
“And don’t bother trying to phaze it won’t work…I’m blocking your powers,” he turned to the others who were standing in horror. “And that goes triple for all of you fools,”
“I don’t get it why did you take us out of our world!” shouted Frozen
