Toad Town

Later at night

The Piranha plant towered over Tayce. T.

Tayce. T- AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Right before the piranha plant swallowed Tayce. T whole, she smacked it as hard as she could with her frying pan.

The plant retreated for a couple seconds, while Tayce. T . ran screaming out of her house.

To her horror, the entire town is plagued with piranha plants, and strangely, every single one seemed to be hungry.

Five piranha plants quickly surrounded her, while Hurt-Plants snapped at her ankles.

A blue axe went flying through the air and hit one of them. This blue axe was followed by a blue axem.

Tayce. T- Who are you?

Mean while, one of the cloaked figures was watching the battle.

??- Perfect...

The mysterious being ran off.

Early next morning

Deep, dark forest


Inferno was walking through the same forest where Warlock had had his meeting, and got a hold of the strange vial.

He had no idea that Warlock had been here or that he still was, and that he was walking in his direction.

Inferno- Huh?

Inferno stopped walking. He had a strange urge to turn away.

He started to walk forward again, but his mind kept telling him to go back. As he did as his mind said, the feeling disappeared.

But when Inferno turned around again, it came back stronger then ever.

Inferno(Thinking) This is strange.

Inferno kept walking, and the urge to leave became almost unbearable. His mind screamed at him to leave.

He started to run.

The feeling got so strong it seemed to hurt. But Inferno was determined to find its source.

Slightly earlier that morning

Same forest

Jr. Koopa Warlock had made sure every thing was ready. Everything had to be perfect, he could not mess this up.

It was nearly time, he would just double check.

Warlock was standing in the middle of a clearing, a flat rock served as a table at one end of it.

This make-shift table was crammed with many bottles, beakers, and potions.

Warlock- The moment is nearly here. I've been preparing for it for so very long and it is almost time!

He held a check list in his hand.

He walked over to the table, checking off all the bottles.

There were the four beakers, each one full of a element in its purest form.

One contained fire, another ice, one was full with lightning, and the last one contained water.

Next to it was the vial he had gotten the previous night. This liquid had a power to create a axem, an axem made out of all the elements!

Warlock had wanted to make a Jr. Koopa, but this was good enough for now.

Two more containers rested on the table.

These were special spells of Warlocks own creation. One to have the Axem age faster, and one to turn it evil after it had been created.

He checked off everything on the checklist, all the bottles were ready, and a barrier that would discourage intruders was set.

Warlock- The time has finally come!

He walked over to the table. But as he was getting ready to proceed with his plan, Axem Inferno came bursting into the clearing.

Warlock- WHAT?! THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE!

Inferno- Ow, my head! (Thinking) That feeling's gone now.

Warlock- grrrr... HOW DARE YOU! Just when everything was ready!

Inferno turned around and stared at Warlock, who was having a mini temper tantrum.

Inferno- Huh? Who are you?

Warlock- Who are YOU? Someone sent to foil my plans, I bet. Well that won't happen! Before I kill you, how did you break through my barrier?

Inferno- One. Your magic barrier must have been pretty weak, because it was E-Z. Two. Kill me? Why do you want to kill me? Besides, you couldn't even if you wanted to!

Warlock- HOW DARE YOU MAKE FUN OF ME! I'LL KILL YOU!

Warlock- 700/700

Inferno- 500/500

Warlock charged at Inferno in a fit of rage.

Inferno- Whoa!

Inferno jumped out of the way just in time. Warlock skidded past him, then turned around to charge again.

Inferno- So you want to fight?

Warlock- How long did it take to figure that out?

Inferno evaded Warlock, then spun around and slashed him quickly, before he sailed past. Warlock took 40 damage.

Warlock- 660/700

Warlock- That slash was nothing compared to what i'll do to you!

Inferno- Prove it!

Warlock shot a energy blast at Inferno, who jumped over it. Warlock shot two more blasts at Inferno. Inferno rolled under one but got hit by the other. He lost 400 HP.

Warlock-660/700

Inferno- 100/500

Inferno- ARGH!

Warlock- See! I am more powerful then you ever dreamed of! Inferno, today is the day you die!

Inferno(THINKING)- His attacks do so much damage! One more hit and I'm dead! But it's not over yet....

Suddenly, Inferno started on fire. Soon he was covered in flame.

Warlock- WHAT in the world are you doing? Committing suicide because you know I'll kill you?

Inferno- You wish!

Inferno's body absorbed the flames, and he healed 150 Hp.

Warlock-660/700

Inferno- 250/500

Warlock- Your puny healing abilities won't save you from my wrath!

Warlock fired 3 blasts at Inferno.

It took all his dodging abilities to evade them.

While Inferno was busy with the blasts, Warlock had ran behind him, and started to charge again. Inferno jumped over him.

Inferno(Thinking)- I can't get close enough to use my axe, I have to rely on my elemental abilities....

Warlock started to charge again, trying to wear Inferno out.

Inferno's hands started to glow, then they caught on fire.

He jumped away from Warlock, all the while the fire on his hands was growing.

Before Warlock could charge again, Inferno clapped them together, sending a huge wall of flame toward him.

Warlock- AHH!

Warlock ran away from it as fast as he could, but he couldn't get away from it.

He tried to stop it with a magic blast, but the wall just keep coming, growing because of the dry grass in the clearing.

Inferno- You can run Warlock, but you will get hit, it's only matter of time!

Inferno watched Warlock being chased by the flaming wall. He used this time to heal himself again.

Inferno-400/500

Warlock- 660/700

Warlock was getting tired, and had no choice but to get hit. He took 250 damage.

Inferno-400/400

Warlock-410/700

Warlock-Se ms you are slightly more skilled than I thought.....

Inferno- Really? I'm touched.

Warlock growled and charged at Inferno.

This time he caught him, and threw him hard against a tree. Then he ran up and kicked him.

Inferno rolled away before he could be hit again. In all he lost 175 Hp.

Warlock-410/700

Inferno-325/500

Inferno ran behind Warlock and slashed him as hard as he could. Warlock lost 80 Hp.

Inferno-325/500

Warlock-330/700

As Warlock spun around to meet him, Inferno blew a jet of flame in his face. Warlock lost 100 Hp.

Warlock- 230/700

Warlock- How dare you take so much Hp from me! You have been very lucky, but that ends now!

Warlock curled up in his shell.

Inferno, unsure of what he was up to, braced himself. All the spikes on Warlock's shell went shooting toward him!

Inferno jumped up, trying to dodge as many as he possibly could.

Inferno saw many spikes flying over and under him, and 10 heading right at him. He held up his axe to block some of them. He took 75 damage.

Inferno- 250/500

Warlock-I can't believe you evaded so many, but this attack will down you in one hit, I promise!

Warlock opened his mouth, and let out and beam of light, right toward the sun.

Inferno- Is it just me, or did you miss me by a mile?

Warlock shot another beam at the sun. Inferno healed himself.

Inferno-400/500

Warlock- 230/700

Inferno- HA! Missed again! Uh, why are you smiling... Whoa!

Inferno jumped to the side as a beam of energy from the sun shot straight at him.

It caused a large explosion as it hit the ground. Another thudded to the ground beside it. Inferno rolled away from it.

Warlock- You see? Thats my sun beam attack. It will kill you in one hit. I'll just fire it until I hit you.

Inferno- Not if I beat you first!

One of Infernos hands started on fire, he shot a fireball out of it at Warlock, Warlock dodged it, he was now on the defensive, charging up for another sun beam.

He fired it then charged at Inferno. Inferno jumped away from the charge, landed, and then had to dodge the sun beam.

He was getting really tired. Warlock fired another beam.

Inferno (Thinking) - I'm getting to tired to dodge these.... This doesn't look good.......
