Chapter 3: Phillip

Meanwhile...

The boy with the orange scarf and strange sword is wandering throughout neighborhoods.

Owen: "(in awe) What kind of place has construction like this? It shouldn't even be possible. Just where the hell did you end up Owen?"

People stare at him in confusion.

Owen: "I still haven't even found Rox and the others..."

Owen clenches his fist.

Owen: "Rox..."

A loud rumble shakes the ground beneath his feet.

Owen: "Something is telling me that isn't a stampede."

A tank and a half dozen soldiers are heading straight for Owen.

Owen: "What the hell is this thing?!"

The tank stops in front of Owen.

Soldiers: "Step away from the tank civilian."

Owen: "So that's what you call that thing."

The soldiers ready their guns.

Soldiers: "Creation!"

Owen pulls a trigger on his sword, causing it to extend to a two foot blade.

Owen: "Was it something I said?!"

The tank's barrel points straight at Owen.

Owen: "I think that I don't want to be hit by that."

Owen's blade glows orange.

Meanwhile...

A young man in a black, leather jacket, white headphones, black jeans, brown t-shirt, curly black hair, and black bag is currently looking at images of fur suits while listening to Skrillex.

Young Man: "(humming) Man, the guys are going to love these beats."

A rumble shakes his room.

Young Man: "(confused) Say what now?"

He stops what he's doing and heads to his front door.

Meanwhile...

Owen: "(breathing heavily) Good thing I didn't get hit."

A crater remains where Owen was standing.

Soldiers: "Halt!"

A Catalyst radar spikes up when the young man opens his door.

Young Man: "Yeah this seems pretty normal."

He turns around to go back inside.

Soldier 1: "Hold it Catalyst!"

Phillip: "Okay first off, I'll have you know that my name is Phillip. Second, what is a Catalyst?"

Owen: "(awkwardly) You do realize that they're shooting explosive items at me, right?"

Phillip rubs his eyes real quick.

Phillip: "(blinking) Am I seeing things?"

A bullet hits Phillip in the shoulder.

Phillip: "(in pain) Why did you just shoot me?"

Soldier 2: "To ensure that you can't get away."

Phillip: "Oh okay, not like I could get away from a tank."

A speaker appears on the front of the tank.

Speaker: "Listen here Catalyst and Creation, you are now property of the U.S. government. Come along quietly and no one will be injured."

Owen points his sword forward.

Owen: "I kinda want some answers about where and how I'm here."

Phillip's blood trickles down to the ground.

Phillip: "And what makes you think that I'll play by your rules?"

Speaker: "Guess that means war, but at least it'll be quick."

The speaker vanishes as the tank barrel readies a shot on Phillip.

Owen: "Hey, you might want to get back!"

Owen slices three soldiers in half with one swing.

Phillip: "Judging by this pain, I'm not dreaming."

Phillip's vision gets blurry.

Phillip: "(dozing off) Imma take a nap."

Phillip falls to the ground, with his blood spilling all over the place.

Owen: "Wake up!"

Owen keeps fighting soldiers as the tank is reloaded.

???: "Really? That's all?"

Phillip can hear a voice calling to him.

Phillip: "(in head) Huh?"

Voice: "You know that he's risking his life for you."

The Catalyst Detector begins to show higher increases in Catalyst energy.

Phillip: "(in head) What the hell can I do?"

The energy rises faster.

Voice: "By using your latent abilities! Do I have to spell it out?"

Phillip begins to stand again.

Owen: "(exhausted) Been a bit since I last fought like this..."

Owen begins to slow down as the speaker reappears.

Speaker: "Are you done yet?"

The Catalyst Detector explodes.

Speaker: "What's happening private?"

Phillip stumbles in front of the tank.

Owen: "What're you-"

Phillip: "Ready?"

A black aura with rainbow flames surrounds Phillip.

Owen: "What's that?!"

Phillip's clothes go from baggy normal clothes, to skin tight black shirt and shorts, with a small cloak on his left arm, black cloth and shoulder pad around his right, and a black scarf around his neck.

Voice: "Thy soul unshackled..."

Rainbow flames are being produced by Phillip's back.

Voice: "Thy emotions are free..."

Phillip: "I feel like I can do anything!"

Something snaps into place in Phillip's mind.

Voice/ Phillip: "The time is nigh for your desires to become the new reality of this world..."

Owen seemingly gets his strength back.

Owen: "What are you?"

Voice/ Phillip: "Now awaken... Emotion!"

The aura fades, but the flames remain.

Phillip: "For Mother Russia!"

Owen: "(confused) Huh?"

Phillip: "Don't worry Owen, things are going to get crazy."

Phillip jumps on top of the tank.

Owen: "How do you know my name?!"

Phillip punches a hole into the tank.

Phillip: "I'll explain later!"

Phillip jumps in and tosses out a scrawny male.

Phillip: "Voice synthesizer."

The tank is on the verge of exploding.

Phillip: "Adios!"

Phillip jumps out the second the tank explodes

Phillip: "Time for my recent specialty."

The rainbow flames cover the area.

Owen: "What's that?"

Owen's blade extends so that he can launch himself to the top of the roof.

Phillip: "How about you get a little reckless?"

Orange and red flow into the remaining soldiers faces.

Soldiers: "(laughing) I can do anything! Watch me!"

They charge towards Phillip, guns blazing.

Phillip: "You wanna help?"

Owen uses the same mentality that he used to get up to go down, into a soldier's chest.

Phillip: "Now we've got to fight in sync, I can't keep them wide open forever."

Owen and Phillip are back to back.

Owen: "I handle this side, you get the other?"

Phillip: "Ah, yes perfect!"

They go wild for each of their sides, knocking out or lightly murdering the soldiers until one remains.

Phillip: "Ready for a finisher?"

A rainbow aura surrounds the two.

Owen: "Kind of need to be ready."

As Owen's sword glows orange, Phillip's fist becomes orange.

Owen/ Phillip: "Synergy Attack..."

They rush up to the remaining soldier.

Owen/ Phillip: "Bravery Synchronization!"

The last soldier is dissolved upon contact with the light.

Owen: "(sweating) Talk about a wild ride!"

Phillip's clothes return to normal as he begins to feel the pain of the bullet in his shoulder, but the injury is gone.

Phillip: "(in pain) At least I'm not bleeding."

Owen follows Phillip inside.

Owen: "I'm getting some answers!"
