ATLAS: Pandora's Box

The Darkness Moves Foward

The fleet of ships arrived at Unis. It was a planet of constant snowfall and winter. Tobi and four other spacecraft carriers flew down to the surface and landed down in a snowy pine forest. Android soldiers marched out of the carriers and began to line up and large black tanks rolled out as well. One android that had orange stripes down its face walked up to Tobi. "Hello, I am Commander J-11, what is our first order?" he asked. "Tobi put on some black gloves. "The Black Queen most likely knows we are here because of our fleet so they are either on their way here or are waiting for us at the village, we shall start to proceed forward," Tobi said. "Yes sir," J-11 said, he placed to fingers on the side of his head and the android army began to move forward. Tobi led them, preparing himself for a fight. 

Atlas sat on the edge of his bed staring out the window. Wasp was walking around trying to get used to walking again. Then there was a knock at the door. Atlas opened it and found Sasha. "Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to take a walk? someone told me about a garden, a little way out of the city," Sasha said. "Yeah! I'd love to," Atlas said.

They left the building and began to walk out of the city and through a large field. They eventually made it to a small forest and there was a small stream right before entering and bushes of many kinds of flowers, and a wooden bench. They sat down and admired the beautiful nature around them. Birds flying overhead and tweeting. Bugs buzzing around the flowers and once in a while, they'd see a few fish swim down the stream. "Wow, I have never seen anything like this before, it's so beautiful," Atlas said he picked one of the flowers and gave it to Sasha. She smiled and held his robotic hand. "Atlas, I know we just met recently, but do you think....we could be together? like a couple," Sasha asked. Atlas looked down and did not respond for a moment. "Yes, I would love to, but it might not be a good idea, you know there are a lot of people out to get me, my father, most likely my sister, and probably Alpha Advancements too, they all want my power," Atlas said. "And I am willing to be with you regardless, I don't care about that, I'll die with you if I have to, I know it sounds crazy but Atlas you are a man I never have seen before, you are so special, and I can't keep my mind off you," Sasha said. Atlas looked at her and smiled. "Then we can be together?" Atlas asked. Sasha smiled as well, "Yes, we can," she said. They leaned in together and kissed. 

Tobi and his army marched through the forest and as expected they saw a large army in the forest as well. They had black armor on and black helmets and large laser rifles. Tobi raised his hand which was the signal for his army to attack. The android army began to charge forward and so did the queen's army. They collided and the battle began. Tobi got out his nether sword and joined in the fight. He cut down many of the queen's soldiers with his sword. He even used his mauve-colored electric energy and shot it out of his fingers shocking them and killing them. He came faced with the leader of the army who was a tall knight with a big ax. He swung his ax and Tobi jumped back. Tobi shot out his electricity and stunned the knight. While the knight was stunned Tobi ran up and stabbed his sword through the knight's army killing him. They had defeated the queen's army. "Keep moving forward! we will be there shortly," Tobi said. 

Bella sat on the floor in her room that she was given inside Project Nebula's ship. She was meditating trying to figure out where Atlas was. "Where are you, Atlas, I know you're still out there," Belle thought to herself. She kept focusing and eventually was able to see through Atlas' eyes. She saw a large grass field and saw that Atlas was holing Sasha's hand. 

Atlas stopped walking and held his hand over his head. "What's wrong?" Sasha asked. I just got a big headache," he said. "Atlas, you cannot hide forever," Belle's voice said inside his head. "No..no no no NO GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Atlas shouted. 

Then Belle felt her head hurting and then she heard a loud sound that sounded like a long drawn out thunderclap but very high pitched. She covered her ears and began to scream. Lucus ran into the room. Belle was rolling on the floor screaming which caused the lights in the room to flicker and some of them broke. She stopped screaming and stood up slowly. "What happened?" Lucus asked. "He...he has become more powerful...than me..." Belle said. 

Tobi and his army arrived at the village. "J-11, call in the fleet and tell them to bring down their ship to the east side of the village," Tobi said. They all began to march into the city. But the queen's army was already waiting and began to charge and they all began to fight once again. Tobi stood on top of one of the tanks and watched the armies fighting in the streets of the village. J-11 walkup, "We have pushed through sir," he said. "Good, start searching every house for Moro, and when you find him," Tobi handed J-11 a picture of Moro and he walked off to search. Tobi looked over the village, it reminded him of the village he was from. He looked up in the sky and saw a flying house. "What the hell?..." Tobi thought. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, and it was gone. He thought it must be because of lack of sleep, it had been a while since he had slept well. He looked at the village again and saw so many people who were frightened, he saw dead queen's soldiers and fallen androids. "We...are no better than Alpha Advancements, we are invading this place just like they did my home," Tobi thought to himself. "Sir, we found him," an android said. Tobi climbed down from the tank and walked over. Two androids led a man with a black beard and shaved head up to him. "So you are Moro?" Tobi asked. "Who wants to know?" Moro said. "I am Tobi, remember of The M.O.B and I am sent here by Jason to take the magic box, if you do not hand it over we will take it by force," Tobi said. "Who says I have it? Jason is wrong so why don't you and your damned army get out of our home!" Moro exclaimed. Tobi got out his sword and held it to Moro's face. "Then if you don't have it, who does?" Tobi said holding it closer. "A gave it to a girl named Pandora, she is in Voltor," Moro said. Tobi put away his sword. "Very well, J-11 send our troops out we are leaving," Tobi said. "But sir, I was instructed to take full control of the city, Jason's orders," J-11 said. "Fine, but if you or any of the androids lay a hand on any of the civilians I will cut you down, understood?" Tobi said. "Yes sir," J-11 said. Tobi walked away and contacted Jason.

Jason was sitting at his desk and read a video contact coming though. He pressed a button and Tobi appeared on the screen. "Tobi, did you find it?" Jason asked. "No, but we found Moro, he says that a girl named Pandora has it, she is on the planet Volture," Tobi replied. "Hm, very well, I will send someone to track her down, is the village under our control?" Jason said. "Yes we have driven the queen's forces out, but I know she will send more here soon," Tobi said. "Then be ready for them," Jason said. He shut off the screen and stared out his window at space. X walked into the room. "You called for me?" X asked. "Yes, we have found where the box could be, on the planet Volture, I want you to find it and bring it to me, it is in the possession of a girl named Pandora. "I will find it, sir," X said walking out.
