The Realm Hero Chronicles: Round 2

Chapter 6: A Riot and A Rising

"It's quiet today," Violet looked up from her spot on the beanbag chair. The Disney Realm Heroes had planned to spend the day at the Disney Hub, the central spot of the Disney Realm. More specifically, at Flynn's Arcade. It was the boys' idea.

"Don't jinx it," Wilbur shot back. He turned back toward his video game. He was currently beating Hiro Hamada in Hero's Duty.

"No fair!" Hiro yelled as his character was shot down. Wilbur stuck his tongue out playfully and blasted a few cy-bugs who had gotten a little too close to comfort.

"I'm surprised he's beating you this easy," Penny Forrester called, "This is the same kid who fought tooth and nail in Roma."

"Considering what I went through in the Realm War," Wilbur called, "You'd better bet that bruise across your agent's face on top of your former paycheck."

"Ex-agent," Penny corrected, "I'm not in the Hollywood business anymore."

"Whatever," Wilbur rolled his eyes. Penny glared back. 

"At least I'm glad they let us take the day off," Lewis set the gadget he was working on aside, "After the riot at RAC, I think we really needed it."

"Heck yeah," Wilbur nodded, remembering today's earlier events.

Flashback

"There's currently a riot in RAC," Laval spoke as the Realm Heroes raced through the portal.

"A riot?" Worriz gasped.

"Is Tanessa okay?" Emily asked.

"She's meeting us there," Laval answered, "And yes, she's okay."

Upon arrival in RAC, the Realm Heroes couldn't believe the extreme chaos that they saw. Tigions were armed, pushing and shoving, their faces obscured by cloth masks. Tigion troops were firing upon the crowd. Tatum was hunkered behind the podium, but straightened as the Realm Heroes arrived. "Thank goodness you're here!" She cried.

"Settle down!" Laval roared. Noticing the Realm Heroes' presence, the Tigions settled down.

"Tatum and Tanessa," Cragger began, "What happened?"

"I don't know exactly," Tanessa answered, "We were hard at work on a war memorial when the workers stormed the plaza. You should've seen it earlier. It was almost as if the plaza was a raging storm. It's been like that for a few minutes. We tried to quiet them earlier, but that totally backfired."

"Okay," Aang began, "Surely there must be a peaceful way to solve this issue."

"There is," a voice purred. Everyone turned at once toward the sound as a Tigion leaped onto the stage.

"It can't be," Tanessa gasped, her eyes wide in surprise.

Terrence smiled, "Of course, dear sister. It is I. How do you think I felt when I woke up after you knocked me out and stole my hard drive? Angry is putting it kindly. As soon as I heard the news that you had joined the Realm Council, I began plotting my revenge. I sent you Realm Heroes a message through the window to show you I meant business."

"You also attacked my house," Wilbur muttered.

"What?" Zuko asked. Everyone looked at the youngest Robinson.

Wilbur straightened, pointing at Terrence. "You attacked my house with RoboREXes. My family's lives were risked because of you breaking the deal. I didn't do anything to hurt you. Yet you nearly killed me in Deadlock prison, swore me to a deal that you had no deal of keeping, and endangered the lives of the people I care about the most. Not to mention that you did this." He turned his leg slightly so that everyone could see it.
