Who's the cloaked man?
All shall be revealed. Eventually....
Pico and Tom had finally reached tha basement. The door had the words "PORTAL AREA- ONLY AUTHORISED MODS ALLOWED TO ENTER. It was like a haven. Pico reached for the door- but as he did Tom grabbed his hand.
"Don't go in there- you're a Flash- you'll automatically get sucked into the portal. I'm organic, so it's ok for me."
Pico raised an eyebrow as he saw the gleaming red light from the crack in the door.
"And how do you plan to stop this portal... thing... why don't we just blow it up"
Tom laughed."
"You can't just blow it up- the sustained energy with in the 3rd portal would take Flash and Audio as well- the combined force of the two will eliminate all life within a five mile radius."
Pico was now even more confused. Even more so was he by the three dark figures that burst out of the door.... the light was so bright, Pico couldn't see.... he could hear gunfire .... and a long silence. Then a terrible sound. The screaming. And then Pico realised....
"TOM! NO!" Pico screamed as he hurled himself over to the motionless heap on the floor. Tom had been shot right through the chest... but.. with what.. this thing wasn't a bullet... more of a blob... as Pico ran it through his fingers, the substance stuck to his arm and started to spread.
"Jesus shit... what... the... fuck!" he growled, as in a spur of the moment, he shot his own arm. He yelled as he went straight to the vein. Not a very wise thing to do...
"No it isn't a bullet Pico.. it's... ink. " a voice pierced through the hum of the third portal, which was expanding as they spoke. Pico's eyes cleared as he saw the dark figure set against the red light. It was still impossible to see who it was.
"It's been a long time Pico. I never thought i'd see your fucking face again. So long since all those..." he counted them off on his fingers.. "Seven years since you brought about my downfall. And nothing has changed... you are such a little nosey bastard Pico..."
And then Pico realised. The man... no, the woman lowered her hood.
"Cassandra you gothic bitch...." Pico muttered. He wiped the blood from his arm and stepped up onto the ground. The second hooded figure came into Pico's line of sight.
"I suppose you remember Alucard..... you kids have fun...."
Pico almost spat at the deja vu coursing through the room. Alucard grabbed a Clock body and hurled it at Pico- he shot that out of his way and shot Alucard in the leg and kneecapped him.
"Enough with the physic shit, we've been through this before.."
Alucard looked at Pico and slowly raised Tom Fulp into the air. He was eyeing the Portal. Pico mouthed a silent "no" as Alucard span Tom around his head. Just as the phsycic was ready to throw Tom into the Portal, he spontaneously combusted, and collapsed into a burning ghost of his former self.
"I say it again.... what... the... FUCK?"
"Always one to jump to the WTFs weren't you Pico?"
Pico smiled instantly as Darnell stepped out of the shadows. Along with him was Nene. But that wasn't all.. he had brought more. There was Maus, Evark, and all the other mods. They were stained in clock remains, but they were there. And of course, at the helm of the army was Wade, with a large bump on his head.
Pico's smile turned into a grin as he loaded his AK and shouted out in a very ready-to-kick-some-assingness sorta way.
And then the Third Portal opened. Millions of shadows poured from the heart of the void, sweeping back Pico, Darnell and Nene across the room.
"HOLD ONTO SOMETHING!" Nene screamed, grabbing onto a pillar. Darnell was randomly throwing Molotov Cocktails at the Portal. Pico didn't pay much attention to it untill he remembered what Tom said.
"SHIT DARNELL, DON'T-" Pico's yell was cut off as something knocked Pico back.. he wrestled with the figure, knocking it senseless. Then he realised.... this guy was as badly animated as shit. It was... a stick figure. Then he realised what this was. The portal... was a Blam Portal. It was bringing back all the blammed submissions from the NG Database. Millions of crudley drawn stickmen were pouring into the room, sweeping down the corridoors, and taking the mods with them. There were too many... Pico could just make out over the mass of stickmen the figure of Wade shooting off as many stickmen as he could.... he was pulled down into the depths... maybe this was it for him too. Maybe seven years was his life span.... just as he considered this, he felt himself falling... no, travelling through space. When he opened his eyes, he was somewhere completley different. The head office. In the darkness, he could see what looked like Tom lying on the floor, with Cassandra looming over him.
"Why the shit have you spared us?" Pico growled, trying to ignore the thinning black clump that was devouring his arm.
Cassandra laughed. She laughed... and laughed..
"Because I have something much bigger in store for you, you nosey little bastard."
