C.I.3: The Battle of the Mega Titan

Chapter 33. The Couragaristis Dimension

Everything was dark. Cyclone couldn't see. He felt around trying to figure out where he was. After the blast from Dishium, his mind felt like it had been stirred with a spoon. He walks forward calling out to anyone he was with when the explosion occurred. "Maladar! Mic! Warpaint!" He called for everyone, but for a while, there was no answer. He continued to walk. His vision was finally starting to come back, but barely. He saw orange and red crystals and fire everywhere he went. The area he was in looked like a fiery cave. He looks around confusingly. "What is this place?" He asked himself. He calls out for the C.I.Gang once more. The was still no answer. Suddenly, a strange creature appears out of nowhere screaming at Cyclone to where his ears couldn't stand it. The creature was ugly. Curiosity came to Cyclone as he approached the creature cautiously. He realized that he still had the Gladiator by his side. He puts both hands on the handle of the sword preparing to strike the monstrous creature if it ever decides to attack him. It did just that by trying to grab Cyclone by the neck. He dodges the creature's large and bulky hands and takes out the Gladiator to defend himself. Cyclone tries to stab the beast with his sword threw the heart, but only grazed its arm. The enchanted sword caused a decent amount of pain to the creature. It growls angrily towards him. It slaps the sword out of Cyclone's hands. He falls backwards and tries to crawl away. It attempts to crush Cyclone with it's fist and Cyclone prepares for the sudden demise. Luckily, Trixi comes along and lands right on the monster's arm. Confusingly, it looks at her to where she had a clear shot at it's throat. Her claws sliced through it with ease. She jumps off of the monster's arm and lands in front of Cyclone who was still on the ground. The creature then bleeds to death and falls flat on it's back with a rumbling thud. It's body disappearing into black dust. Trixi turns around and helps young Cyclone back to his feet. Cyclone grabs her hand for her to pull him up. "Thanks." He said to her with amazement. She nods. "Anytime." They look around the area they were in. Cyclone still didn't know what was going on. "Where are we?" He asked. Trixi however, had a completely focused look on her face. "Follow me." She said to Cyclone. "And stay close. There's more of them things here." "How do you know?" Asked Cyclone. "What is this place? Do you know where we are?" Trixi lowers her head. "Yes." She responded. "We're in the Couragaristis Dimension." Cyclone was shocked. "Couragaristis?!" He asked. "Don't worry." Trixi said. "I know where we are. This was once my home you know." Cyclone follows her closely and staying alert on more of the monsters like the one she killed.
