| Chapter III - The Great King of Evil Samus Aran cautiously approached the cafe she was to meet her hirer... or what was left of it. The whole place was a mess... tables and chairs overturned, small bits of flames sprouted here and there, and the bodies... a dozen or two of them, scattered around. Bodies of men and women, police officers... children. And in the middle of the cafe, sitting calmly at the only table not tipped over, was the man that hired her, dressed in the usual dark cloak and hood. He sipped at his tea, apparently unaware of the carnage that lay before him. Samus was stunned. Samus - How could he not notice all this... destruction? As the bounty hunter walked slowly towards him, he noticed her, and looked up. Samus could barely see the two piercing eyes in the recesses of his hood. They seemed... amused. The mysterious man spoke, his chilling voice calling out to Samus. ??? - "Ahh, you're back. Quickly, I may add. I assume you have what I wanted...?" Samus nodding silently, gesturing towards the bag in her hand that held the Crystal of Makoona. The man chuckled oddly at the sight of the artifact and reached out, beckoning Samus to give it to him. Samus outstretched her hand, about to give it over when she suddenly pulled back. She paused a moment before speaking, her voice projected out of the external speakers on her helmet. Samus - "What happened here? What caused all this destruction? And... why do you seem to ignore it?" A slight smile broke out on the face in the shadows of the man's hood. He laughed, a menacing laugh, almost... evil... ??? - "Well, it seemed like somebody thought this seat belonged to him. He tried to start a fight... I finished him off quite easily." He pointed to a man, lying on his stomach, a smoking hole in his back. ??? - "Some of his buddies seemed to not like my idea of killing him, so they attacked... futilely. More and more people tried to stop me. They were foolish. No one could beat me! To get some peace and quiet, I destroyed everyone in this cafe." He chuckled again, his grin growing. ??? - "No one dared to challenge me after that..." Samus clenched her hands. Samus - Nobody who kills a whole group of innocent people deserves this crystal... at least I just knocked out the guards when I took it, not killed them! Samus slowly placed the Crystal of Makoona on the ground behind her, and charged her canon. Samus - "If you want that crystal, you'll have to go through me to get it." The man laughed darkly, put down his tea, and got up. He tossed his cloak to the side, showing his real features that were hidden underneath - A man clad in dark armor, a cape flowing behind him. ??? - "You dare to challenge me, the Great King of Evil?! Then, prepare to DIE!!!" The evil man raised his hand. Dark blasts of purple lightning extended from it, towards the bounty hunter. Samus quickly rolled to the side, and counter-attacked. The battle commenced. -=[ Battle 12 ]=- Teams: Samus (HMN) Vs. Ganondorf (LV9) Items: None Stage: Onett Extra: You must lose this battle. Samus Aran dropped, out of breath. She was no match for the King of Evil, whoever he is. King of Evil - "Such a pitiful creature... You should of known you were no match for me! Now, you will die like the rest of them poor humans." The dark man raised his hand once more. This time Samus couldn't dodge. The dark, purple lighting surrounded her body, draining her life. The Great King of Evil laughed triumphantly. He snatched up the Crystal of Makoona and created a portal. He walked in, and the portal disappeared. From the window of the store across the street, a small boy watched in horror as the bounty hunter Samus Aran died. |
