Chapter Five - Storm Over The Boiling Isles

After defeating Salem and Aku, the group were transported out of Remnant and into the next world. When they arrived at the next world, the group found themselves in the outskirts of a city. The city in the distance was a dense, medieval-style town surrounded by bone mountains and forests, with two large green arms looming over it. Aelita was in awe of what she was seeing 

Aelita: Incredible...

Jack: I have seen many things in my travels, but this.....

It was at this moment that Eda recognized the world they were in. 

Eda: Yep. No doubt about it. We're in the Boiling Isle: a realm populated by Witches and Demons.

Alucard: Witches and Demons, you say? Seems like I could spend quite some time cleansing this world. 

Obi-Wan: I've had my encounters with Witches and I can't say any of them have been good....

Eda: Don't worry. The Witches and Demons here aren't like whatever Witches and Demons are like in any of your worlds. I mean I'm a Witch and I'm fine. 

Goliath: We need to focus on the task at hand. It may not be long before the champions of Black Hat and Alastor begin their battle. 

As Goliath said this, Eda led them to the city of Bonesborough. When they reached the city, they found total chaos as members of the Emperor's Coven were battling against a group of Uruk-Hai. 

Itachi: They've already begun their battle.....

Alucard: They stand in our way. They will die. 

Alucard smiles as he unloads both of his pistols on both the Coven Guards and the Uruk-Hai, killing them indiscriminately. The rest of the group soon joined Alucard in fighting both the Coven Guards and the Uruk-Hai while keeping any fleeing citizens safe. Once the initial battle was over, the group regroup. 

Obi-Wan: You seem to be....relishing in these brutal acts of violence, Alucard? 

Alucard: Would you have me take pity on them?  They are the foot soldiers of some of the most evil beings the Multiverse has to offer. 

Eda: Hey I'm all for taking down Belos's goons, but they're misguided, not monsters. 

Itachi: Eda is right. We must take care that in fighting monsters that we don't become them. 

Alucard: A little late to say that to me. 

Suddenly, the ground began to shake as they look to the sky to see a buildup of black flames covering the sky. It wasn't long before the flames manifested into apparitions of Black Hat and Alastor.

Black Hat(Apparition): Good evening, citizens of the Boiling Isles! Our game across the Multiverse continues with your world serving as the next battleground. 

Alastor(Apparition): Having homefield advantage in this fight is someone very familiar to you! He is the one who brought order to the Boiling Isles and seeks to expand his sphere of influence! You love him! You fear him! He is the Voice of the Titan! Give it up for EMPEROR BELOS!

Footage of Belos and the Emperor's Coven were shown. 

Black Hat(Apparition): Representing myself in this round is someone well versed in the magical arts. He is the White Wizard who now has the power of industry on his side. Please give it up for SARUMAN THE WHITE!

Footage of Saruman and the Uruk-Hai waging war on Middle Earth was shown. 

Black Hat(Apparition): The rules of this battle are the same as before.....

Alastor(Apparition): Waging a war of death and destruction until one side is completely destroyed! Anyone and everyone is fair game to our champions!

Black Hat(Apparition): On behalf of Alastor, myself and the Black Hat Organization, die well....

As the apparitions faded, it was clear to the group that the battle between Saruman and Emperor Belos would be bloody. 

Aelita: Eda, this place is your world? Do you know where they will fight? 

Eda: Given that those....things were fighting Coven Guards, I'm guessing this Saruman guy is just cleaning house. But knowing Belos, I'm sure he'll bunker down in that palace of his. 

Jack: Then we must hurry. The longer we delay, the more innocents shall fall to this madness. 

Eda: Not so fast, Samurai. The palace is gonna be swarming with Coven Guards and if this Saruman guy is gonna attack the palace, then it's gonna get messy. 

Alucard: If anyone is foolish enough to stand in our way, then they'll die all the same. 

Eda: I got some friends who will be more than willing to help me. 

With that, Eda began leading the group to where Eda's friends were. Meanwhile at an unknown location, Black Hat and Alastor was watching the entire game transpire. 

Alastor: And they're off! I'd say we're off to a fantastic start! I hope your crew is up to the task! My boys are playing for keeps!

Black Hat: Do not get so confident, Alastor. Your band of monsters are formidable, but my champions are more than a match for them.

Alastor: And it would seem that our game has stirred up quite a bit of feathers!

Black Hat then looks over the footage of the group taking on both Salem and Aku. 

Black Hat: It seems we've attracted the attention of the Tribunal. 

Alastor: Do I detect worry, old boy?

Black Hat: Not at all, Alastor. In fact, I'm sure this will make this game all the more fun. Evening the playing field if you will. 

With that, Black Hat and Alastor would for now leave the group be as the battle between Saruman and Belos would unfold in the Boiling Isles. As for the group, they would once more have to find allies to aid them in stopping these titans of evil.
