Chapter 21: Violet Song
They had taken the Sage's boat as soon as they got an a-okay from the Blood Sage. Jason had handle the navigation, Joseph at the helm, and Jack and Jake causing the wind.
Jay: "(yawning) Are we there yet?"
Jade: "(annoyed) You're being extremely calm about this."
Eryth sees and island in the distance.
Eryth: "I think I see Violet Song!"
Jason: "I can see it too!"
Joseph: "Kick it up a notch you guys!"
Jack: "(smiling) On it!"
The wind blows harder dead straight towards Violet Song.
Jake: "(in head) Nearly there."
They arrive at the island, where surprisingly, a bunch of tourists are in a nice tropical town.
Joseph: "Violet Song is a popular tourist destination. Usually the Metal Sage is around, but he's currently back at Fallen Heart for safety reasons."
Jade: "To think the 13th Crown was hiding right here under a Sage's nose."
Eryth: "Crimson Crown is inside a cliff side of the island. It isn't that far actually."
Jack: "(smiling) We should prepare ourselves before we head over."
Jay: "(sighing) We have a bit of cash, might as well."
Everyone goes around town and buy all forms of medicine and bandages they can for the next hour, until they have nothing left.
Joseph: "I've been here before. I know exactly where Crimson Crown is.
Everyone follows Joseph.
Meanwhile...
Aqua: "To think someone like C-137 was the chosen."
Aqua is in a cavern with a girl chained to the wall by her wrists and ankles.
Aqua: "Would you have ever expected that A-99?"
A-99: "(Struggling) Let me go!"
Aqua punches A-99 in the gut.
Aqua: "Why don't you continue to beg, struggle..."
A-99 coughs a little blood.
Aqua: "... bleed?"
A-99: "(coughing blood) He'll free me, C-137..."
Aqua: "His name has since been officially changed to Jack Yeweys."
Aqua looks away.
Aqua: "I'd like to see them try to get past me."
The heroes had arrived at a stairway leading to a massive cavity in the island cliff side.
Jason: "Well, any plans?"
Jay: "Go in and slaughter left and right."
Jade: "Just go."
They all walk into the cavity to find a familiar looking man standing in their way.
Man: "So that rat sold us out."
A majority of the heroes recognize him as the one who trashed the S.S. Tidal.
Jason: "You're the guy who sank the S.S. Tidal."
He pulls out a broadsword with a Rune engraved in it.
Jay: "Just try and give us a challenge."
Jay teleports behind the general.
Jack: "Rune #12 Shadow!"
Shadows slither across the ground from Jack's shadow.
13th Crown General: "Rune #13 Soul."
Blue light emerges from the general, causing Jay and Jack to miss.
13th Crown General: "You believe that defeating me would be that simple?"
A swing of the sword sends Jay into the cavern wall.
Joseph: "Light!"
Joseph sends a ball of pure light straight at the general's heart.
13th Crown General: "You want that back?"
The sword bounces the light back at Joseph as he barely hangs onto the edge of the cliff.
Joseph: "(panicking) Someone help me!"
Jade rushes to the edge when she bumps into the general.
Jade: "How did-"
Jade turns around to find the general standing there as well.
Eryth: "The Soul Rune grants cloning capabilities"
Jade slices the clone in half with her axe.
Jake: "Aqua can do more than that."
Jason locks claws with the sword.
Jason: "(struggling) Keeping secrets Jake?"
Jake switches to whip form and attempts to pull the sword away.
Jake: "(struggling) She's able to create dozens of clones an alter which one is the original!"
Jay gets up and pulls out his gun while Jade finishes pulling Joseph up.
Jay: "(smirking) Sounds like we're going against an opponent worth it."
Jay lands a toxic bullet in the general's neck.
Jason: "(smirking) Says the guy who got smashed into a wall and I had to save."
Jake switches to dagger form and blocks the sword again.
13th Crown General: "(in head) Why do I feel weak?"
Joseph lands a ball of light on the leg.
Joseph: "There we go!"
Jack has been charging up.
Jack: "(smiling) Why don't we go all out?!"
Jack's aura begins to glow.
Jade: "At least you won't pass out."
As the Rune appears in his left eye.
The aura pours into his hands.
Eryth: "Well get out of the way!"
Everyone dives out of the way.
They release a blast of energy that incinerates the ground beneath it's blast.
13th Crown General: "I can block that."
The sword begins to block the blast.
Jack/ Eryth: "Max power!"
The sword begins to vaporize as the blast increases in power.
Jake: "(in head) We're beginning to use everything!"
The general vanishes in an instant when the sword vanishes.
Jason: "Talk about a step up!"
Jack and Eryth collapse.
Joseph: "I had a feeling that would be the bad part."
Jason: "Looks like they had to put everything in that shot."
13th Crown members begin to emerge from the cavern.
Jade: "I can handle Jack! Just take these guys out!"
Jade picks up Jack as Joseph handles Eryth.
Jay: "(sighing) These guys must really want to die."
Jay begins to slaughter all of the members using his daggers with telekinesis.
Jason: "No other options."
Jake: "Yeah."
Jason switches to dragonoid form as Jake switches to sword form.
Joseph: "I'll do what I can!"
The guys begin to slice and dice their way through the caverns.
