Fight for the Underworld

Radja's Dream

"Captain? Jazz! Is that you, Gabby?" Radja said with extended arms. He looked really regal, and more mature than the little old Radja from before. "I'm so glad you're here. Maybe you guys can help me with my plans," he continued.

"Actually, that's why we're here, Radja," Cheyanne interrupted.

Gabby asked, "What exactly are you planning?"

Radja grew somber, "I'm glad you asked. With the blades of Yin and Yang, I feel like I have a responsibility. A responsibility to rid this planet of all the evil and darkness. With my great power, I plan to eradicate the Underworld!"

Marysa announced, "That's a bit much, dontcha think?"

"Do you know how many times I've heard that already?" he replied, "All I want to do is make this world pure," he defended.

I finally stepped in, "Look man, if you don't tone it down a bit, I'm gonna have to stop you forcefully because after escaping that prison, all I wanted to do was-"

"Oh I see," Radja looked down and thought for a second, "I just thought that since you were all my friends, you'd understand and help." Then he looked up and his voice rose, "So if you will not support me, you will only be my enemies!" And with that, he turned on his heel and marched away from us while we stood there silent. Probably feeling confused, guilty, or speechless.

"What now?" asked Algerita.

"It's obvious," I answered, " 'by force'."

We jumped on our ship and sailed away. My plan was to get help from the Underworld so we wouldn't have to fight the whole freakin' Army of Heaven with just nine of us. That was, until we got stopped by a bigger ship. They hopped on our ship and a buff-like woman with a muzzle-type thing on her face announced, "Pirates! Lower your sail and allow us to board!"

I said, smugly walking towards her, "And why exactly should I listen to you?"

"Young lady, I'm the commander from an army from Hades," she yelled, "and believe me I will raise hell upon your crew."

"Okay, okay, chill, Jeez," I surrendered.

So with that, we got on the banshee's oversized hell ship with our ship chained to the back of this ship sailing along. "I know who you are," the muzzled lady said. "You're the pirate captain who escaped my prison. And before that, you've had multiple accounts of theft, prison escapes, resisting arrest, and grand theft aqua!"

"Not to mention saving the world from a tyrannical ruler," added Maryssa.

"Pirates nonetheless," she stood.

I said, "yeah okay but what have you accomplished with your life?"

"Well I'll have you know that I'm the general of the kingdom who's princess you murdered and impersonated; another crime." Whoops. Then a familiar face appeared behind her.

"Geeze, Anna, whats with all the shouting?" Breana asked.

Anna responded snootily, "Say hello to the scoundrel-"

"Rabia. We've met. How've you been?" And right there we shook hands right in front of Anna's astonished face. Or at least I thought it was astonished. Hard to tell with that big ol' metal muzzle.

So I asked, "By the way, why do you wear that mask thing?" She scratched her short curly hair in thought, turned to Bri, who gave her an approving nod. She reached around to the back of her head and unhinged something and the mask fell off to her hand. What was revealed just shocked everyone who was there. Algerita froze, Gabby fainted, Jazz dropped his book, Maryssa was stuttering and stammering, and Devin was mortified. He's so cute when he's mortified.

Anywho, enough mystery. So basically the mouth and nose part of her face was all torn and ripped and mutilated with scars from huge cuts or whatever with all that red flesh exposed. Her sharp, misshapen non straight teeth were all exposed and all over and place and she was drooling green stuff and- oh gawwwd it was awful. Bri chuckled at our disgusted and frightened faces while Anna adjusted her mask back on. "Well thanks for the nightmare fuel!" Yelled Simon.

Natalie whispered, "How did-"

"Don't ask," Bri interrupted. "Hey wait, why is there an angel on this ship?" She pointed to Cheyenne.

"Oh the angel is what you're asking about? Not even gonna question a guy with a tiger's face and scorpion tail. I see what circus ride we're gonna be going on..." Jazz walked away growling and stammering to himself.

Cheyenne dropped in, "yeah, I'm an angel, what of it?"

"It's just usually bad news when your kind steps into where they don't belong," Bri explained.

"A.K.A, the Underworld," Anna added.

"Well I do have bad news," Cheyenne professed, "Someone from Olympus is sending an army down there."

I said, "Hey, you're a general, right? Just use your army against this one."

"Like I'm helping a bunch of low life criminals." Scoffed Anna.

"I think you don't understand," said Gabby, "This isn't just our crew's problem. This affects the whole world, especially yours."

Anna still wouldn't budge from her position. Then Natalie noted, "We did kinda saved the world once. I think you owe us to help save it again."

Bri shrugged, "She's got a point."

Anna groaned then surrendered, "Fine, we'll go and assemble an army, but you scums are on the frontlines!" We cheered then Bri waved her arm and the bondage between our ship and theirs disappeared and we boarded on our ship.

"Sooo," Taylor asked, "What do we do now?"

I thought for a moment, then had a realization, sighed with my head down, raised back up and stared at Taylor, "We sail and trek all the way back to Radja."
