"So, is this all of us?" Green Wolf asked, looking around the room. "I can't help but notice that this little 'team up' is made up mostly of my own men." He grumbled.
"Well, if you didn't leave Mars King and Polaron to die, then maybe we would have more members," Block growled. "As it stands, you've managed to finally wipe out most of the Bad Timers."
There were eleven of them in total. This new team that Harrison Avalon was building, whatever it was going to be named, was placed under his tower in Oleander City, far below the earth. The room they were in looked like a set of ancient ruins. It was massive and filled with large stone pillars that held it up. Near the back of the ruins, they stood in front of what looked like a gigantic metal vault door. It was locked, and none of them had been able to get it open.
Next to the vault door, Golden God rested. The giant man was still missing several of his limbs, and wires poked out of him. His head was slumped, and he didn't move or make any sound. He had been powered off ever since the incident nearly one week ago. Avalon had managed to fix several of the broken limbs, but the hand of the Emperor would still be out of commission for a while longer.
Of the ten of them, not counting Golden God, only three were from Polaron's team. The other eight belonged to Green Wolf, a fact that annoyed the masked villain. Their members were Block, a monster that stood at fourteen feet tall and was made entirely out of hard stone, with blocky arms and legs and a square-shaped head. Saw Head, who they had to bust out of a trip to Nightshade. He looked almost human, having normal skin, though instead of a face, a perfect circular saw rested in its place. He also had a saw going through his head and arms. Lastly was, of course, Demonica, who was missing one of her limbs. The damage she received from Myth hadn't left her.
The other members of this team all used to be part of Zoo. They all wore a colored suit based off of their name as well as an animal mask. They were Green Wolf, Red Ape, Red Monkey, White Cow, White Lamb, White Spider, and Black Shark.
"I would have thought Polaron could handle himself." Green Wolf snorted. "I can see Mars King going and getting himself killed off, but Polaron? I'll admit I'm a little bummed out. I viewed him as a rival of sorts. We don't even know who killed him, do we?"
"It was that bastard, Poseidon." Block hissed. "He fought her last and went missing after that. I'm sure she did it. The same goes for Mars King. He fought Paragon, and then we never heard of him again. Those two sisters are monsters. Now that we know we don't need Paragon, I'll rip her limb from limb!"
"Good luck with that." Green Wolf chuckled. "I mean, you're a little too weak to be challenging the big dogs."
Block's teeth ground together, and flakes of stone began to rain down his skin as he flexed his body and took a step toward the man in the suit. "Why don't I show you just how strong I am-"
"That's enough, Block." Demonica threw her arm out in front of her teammate and shook her head. "It isn't worth it. He's nothing more than a rowdy dog that has grown jealous that his master's found other pets."
Green Wolf gripped his fingers tightly around the handle of a steak knife. His mask was raised a bit, showing off his sly smirk. "How's the arm bitch?"
"You bastard!" Block stormed past Demonica and slammed his fist down toward Green Wolf. The fist bounced off of the man in the wolf mask, all the kinetic energy being absorbed. Green Wolf stabbed out with his blade, thrusting it forward and slamming it into Block's gut. It hit hard enough to crack the stone man's skin and send him flying back. Block slammed into a wall and slumped down, groaning.
Green Wolf didn't have time to say a witty remark, though, as seconds later, Saw Head was behind him. The monster's hand had twisted and formed sharp blades, placing them under Green Wolf's barrier. Despite the shield he usually had on, the leader of Zoo still felt the knives lightly pierce his flesh, causing a small drop of blood to trickle down his body.
