A Dark Descent- A Patapon 3 Story

Guardians Of The Cave.

"Right so we're all set?" Asked Ravenous, he was stood inside Mjollnir castle perched against a wall adjacent to the huge wooden doors that led in and out of the bastion. Slogturtle gave a slow nod and rested one hand on his Bacteon Greatshield. The doors slowly slid open as Ravenous pushed against the handle, a beautiful bright yellow sunlight burst in through the opening and a pleasant warmth hit the dark heroes. Slogturtle followed the raven and closed the door after exiting the castle. The two trekked for miles, up and down sandy deserts and through forests alike, fighting countless shrubbery as they slashed their way through dense bushes. A line of swept up sand was left behind Slogturtle, his mighty shield had forced sand apart and made a snake like path that winded across the golden sands. Ravenous looked over the cliff that they had reached a few hours after leaving the castle early in the morning. He peered over and saw a sapphire blue sea crashing against yellow crystal sands.

Slogturtle looked around and found a slightly steep hill that the heroes could get down, slowly and carefully the raven began to creep down the hill he grabbed onto his scythe and used it to dig into the dirt to keep him up, Slogturtle was slightly struggling to push his shield downhill so he yanked it up into the air and slammed it down on the ground, the turtle then looked at Ravenous and smiled as he dived onto it and slid down the slope, the shield banged and jilted but the dark hero stayed on it. The raven continued to be careful and he eventually reached the bottom, Slogturtle was laying on the beach using his shield as shade, he sat staring at the amazing ocean that swept across the beach. Slogturtle turned around and stared at Ravenous "Oh... So... You... Finally... Decided... To... Get... Down... Here..." The turtle began to chuckle to himself and get to his feet, both the dark heroes started to walk along the soft beach, they carried their weapons and stayed vigilant but were relaxed.

In the cliff face there was a massive cave, almost like the doorway at Mjollnir castle apart from the doors, Ravenous walked in first and gripped his scythe tight, Slogturtle followed after. The raven evaded something, his fast reflexes ensuring he wasn't hit even in the jet black darkness of the cave. "WHAT WAS THAT!" He squawked. Slogturtle smacked his shield against the ground and a gigantic turtle shell forcefield appeared around him and Ravenous, the light from the mystical field lit up the room and made the enemies visible, there were three huge rock golems a few metres away from the dark heroes, each one gave a roar before flinging rocks at their foe, luckily the turtle shell deflected the rocks so they ricocheted. Ravenous slid out of the shields protective field and charged towards the golems, he jumped forward and slashed at a golden with his scythe, blow after blow he pummeled it with his scythe, it lifted up its arm and it smacked the raven across the floor, he skidded which brought pebbles and dust flying into the air. Ravenous shook off the hit and ran into Slogturtles protective field again before ambushing the enemies from a different angle, the black and crimson scythe plunged into the top of the golems mouth and Ravenous pulled his weapon upwards, this sliced the top part of the golem in half and the golem began to crumble. Rocks lay scattered where it was fighting. Meanwhile the turtles force field is taking a beating and cracks are beginning to show in his mystical defense mechanism. Slogturtle pushes his shield forward and parries and punch by one of the other rock golems, Ravenous creates a tornado and launches it in the enemy golems direction, powerful winds smash into the second golem and it is destroyed, rocks are thrown at Slogturtles energy field and it cracks at the top, florescent green shards fall gracefully to the floor as the field is shattered, Slogturtle charges towards the remaining golem and impacts it with his shield, the golem staggers slightly but the attack does little damage, the raven skids behind Slogturtle's shield again and tries to figure out what to do. "Right you move forward and protect me from incoming attacks, ill try and deal the final blow." Ravenous shouted in desperation. Slogturtle began to push his Bacteon Greatshield closer and closer to the now further away golem, when the turtle was only a couple of metres away Ravenous jumped onto the top of the shield and dived onto the golem, the raven hacked at his prey with his scythe, tearing chunks of rock and boulder from it until it was just a pile of rock itself. Slogturtle emerged from behind his shield. "Well... That... Was... Unexpected..." Ravenous agreed and gripped onto the key that Sonarchy had given him. "Right it is time to get some rare items." He squawked.
