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.
