Pixelate 3: Final Stand

Chapter 12: Keep Going!

Everyone logs in to find them completely alone.

Kyle: "Kinda creepy..."

Edo: "Well it's either this or making countless Players end up like... whatever Anti-Aegis is doing to them!"

Tori: "(sarcastically) Great motivational speech Edo."

Edo: "Let's just go!"

Everyone exits the ghost town as everyone notices something very strange.

Andrea: "Those are elements from the Omega and Alpha servers!"

They see a strange desert mixed with machinery as they're about to go to the next boss.

Roy: "Looks like not only did the games mix, but the servers for each all collided into one big server."

They arrive at the entrance to a tower.

Serena: "It's up there."

Risa: "Let's get this done and over with."

The group begins climbing up the ruined stairs of the tower.

Andrea: "This is going to be a lot harder than the last three."

Roy: "In Pixel Reality the bosses are split up into several different classes Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum right?"

They see a light at the top of a staircase.

Kyle: "Yeah and we just got to our equivalent of Silver."

They find a rider on a phoenix awaiting patiently.

Zack: "(drawing sword) Here we go!"

The griffon jumps down.

Cole: "(pulling out cannon) We'll hit from a distance."

Cole, Tori, Kyle, William, Anthony, Emily and Asaka begin blasting away at the griffon.

Micheal: "(igniting sword) We'll get in and strike!"

Everyone else gets close and begins to hit the griffon.

Roy: "This gets really easy when we work together!"

Spoke too soon...

Roy: "(panicking) Nevermind!"

A massive gust of wind nearly blows everyone off the edge of the tower.

Micheal: "It's still got two thirds of its HP!"

Several talon slashes critically injures Asaka and Anthony.

Emily: "Isabel and I will handle their injuries!"

Andrea: "(in head) This is way tougher than the last one!"

Risa charges head on.

William: "What are you doing?! Getting yourself killed?!"

Water surrounds her fist.

Risa: "(determined) Die!"

The moment the punch connects, water seems to explode like a bomb and takes a decent chunk of the HP.

Robert: "That was nuts!"

Risa keeps punching.

Tori: "I'll get the rider!"

Tori aims for the rider.

Kyle: "How about we hit it with Bio-Link?"

Tori: "Uh why?!"

Kyle: "We'll hit harder!"

Tori: "Okay..."

A white light envelopes them as the Bio-Link starts.

Serena: "(in head, blushing) Time to impress William!"

Serena tosses her shurikens into the phoenix's eyes eyes, making it blind.

William: "Okay..."

Tori and Kyle ready their bow as the light vanishes.

Tori/ Kyle: "You're finished!"

A single arrow annihilates the rider.

Risa: "Now let's go!"

Risa is joined by Roy with a scythe slash.

Roy: "(blushing) L-Let's finish this!"

Risa: "(blushing) Y-Yeah."

The two punch and slice in unison as the griffon is unable to react.

Anthony: "How about a few of these?"

Electricity surrounds his guns.

Anthony: "Bullet of Zeus!"

A single bullet blows the head off, finishing the boss.

Cole: "Nice!"

Risa grew to Lv24.

Asaka: "(getting up) Nice now we should head back and-"

Risa: "(determined) I'll keep going."

Anthony/ Kyle: "Wait what?"

Risa: "(determined) We don't have time for breaks. We need to keep pushing ourselves beyond our limit."

Isabel: "That is true, but we aren't 100% ready for Rank 5 and we still have a few months before-"

Risa jumps down some of the tower debris and runs off.

William: "(sighing) And there is what I was expecting at some point."

Roy follows.

Zack: "Well this is just great!"

Andrea: "It's too risky for all of us to do that. We need to take the old fashioned way and follow them."

Robert: "Okay..."

Everyone rushes off to follow the two.
