Across the threshold: Tickling the Dragon's tail 06
Reaching Tameron, Kaiser saw the massive form of Rox, and said, "Who the (censored) are you?" "That's not your business." A voice called out from behind as a hook like weapon caught him him by the neck and threw him towards the plaster wall. Smashing through it, Kaiser landed on the ground hard by Voidmond's feet. "Well Mr Strongest, how was your flight?" "Ah shut up you stupid chicken!" Kaiser said, getting up, "I was taken off guard." Turning to the hole Kaiser made, Voidmond said pointing, "Well, guess you better get ready!" Turning, Kaiser saw a hooded figure on the other side of the hole as Jerry an up to the two and saw the figure as well. "Who the heck is that!?" Jerry asked. "Not sure," Voidmond answered, "but I have an idea." Stepping out of the hole, the hooded droid heaved the massive scythe-like weapon on his shoulder and walked towards the three. "A droid!?" Jerry exclaimed, "What is a droid doing here!?" "I'm no ordinary droid." The Droid said holding out his scythe, "I am Richant 42 of the 14 Jewels! Come at me if you must!" "Fine!" Kaiser said rushing at Richant 42 with intent to kill before Voidmond could stop him. Richant raised his scythe and used the hammer like end to smack Kaiser aside. Getting up, Kaiser gritted his teeth and summoned two plasma sabers. Seeing this, Richant twisted a knob on his scythe, causing the blade to glow blue and mechanical voice to call out [ENGAGE! SLASH MODE!] As Kaiser slashed at the droid, Richant Caught the blade with the Scythe and threw it out of the ceasarian's hand. Richant then jammed the top of his scythe into Kaiser's stomach, causing the ceasarian to stagger back. "You punk!" Kaiser said pulling out two more sabers, "Come and get some!"
Inside, as Omnidec was about to open the door, he heard Kaiser smashing through the wall, forcing him to rush to the window at the end of hallway. Seeing Richant outside, Omnidec dashed downstairs only to find Flaron and Tameron with Rox. "(Censored)!" Omnidec said, "What's he doing here!?" Noticing Omnidec, Flaron asked raising her staff, "What the heck are you doing here Jewel?" "To bring all of you back." Rox answered, "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry as well." Tameron said readying himself for battle, "But we can't come with you!" "Very well," Rox said raising out his staff, "En garde!" Tameron made the first move, using his claws to disarm the duck like being but Rox used his staff to hit Tameron in the stomach. Seeing her companion recoil in pain, Flaron swung at Rox in a flurry of blows, forcing the duck entity to block back with his own staff. Immediately Omnidec inserted his own chip into his metamorpher and his weapon began to glow violet with energy. Slashing in an arch, Omnidec yelled, "Flare! GET DOWN!" before an arch of violet energy shot out from his weapon towards the Jewel and Flaron. Hearing the warning, Flaron moved out of the way before the arch collided with Rox's body, throwing the massive Jewel through the wall as Tameron ducked out of the way. "Come on!" Omnidec said, rushing outside, "We need to get out of here!" Suddenly the a massive tornado of white came flying with Rox saying "Yuve yuve YU!" "WHAT THE (censored)!?" Flaron screamed as the three humonculi immediately ducked and Rox landed saying "Strange. Very strange, You refuse to come with me, a friend of Verdtrus for a life of a renegade. Strange, very strange indeed."
Back outside, Kaiser and Richant locked weapons as Jerry aimed the rocket launcher towards the two. "What are you doing?" Voidmond asked as Jerry steadied his breath. "Taking my shot!" Jerry said before he pulled the trigger. Like a F1 race car, the rocket shot out towards the two combatants in incredible speed, only passing them as Richant kicked Kaiser away, causing it to hit the gate wall. The explosion reduced the fencing to a spiny mess, causing Jerry to groan and throw the Rocket launcher aside, pulling out a gun. Seeing the mess, Kaiser turned and glared at Jerry, demanded "Hey! Watch it!" Suddenly Richant smacked him upside in the head, sending the cesarian flying. At that moment Voidmond then rushed at the droid, grabbing the missile launcher and threw it at the jewel. Seeing the incoming weapon, Richant then raised his scythe and slashed the launcher in half, only for Voidmond to get a drop kick in before leaping away from the droid. Recovering quickly, Richant charged at the fake garuda and swung the massive weapon at the new combatant, but again Voidmond dodged every swing, ducking and leaping in between scythe swings. "Just! Stay! STILL!" Richant demanded Swinging at Voidmond "You! LITTLE! BRAT!" Suddenly Kasier immediately appeared, punching the droid in the visor, causing Richant to fall. "I'm still the strongest!" Kaiser proclaimed but the Droid got up again and spin kicked the two to the ground on their backs. As all three quickly got up, Voidmond's hands began to glow. "Kaiser," Voidmond started, "do you want me to tell you everything, right?" "Yeah," Kaiser answered, "What do you have to tell me?" Immediately, Voidmond's hands erupted into golden burning claws as Flip and Primo entered the backyard. "What in the!?" Kaiser exclaimed, but Voidmond said, "Back in the quarry, I was holding back!" Voidmond then charged at Richant and grabbed at the charged scythe before evaporating it instantly. "What in the!?" Richant exclaimed before Voidmond sucker punched the droid, sending him flying and smashing through the chimney of the house. Landing hard on the ground, Richant noticed Flip and exclaimed, "What is he doing here!?"
In the house Omnidec and Flaron both attacked Rox at once, each taking turns at striking the massive entity but Rox just blocked most of the attacks with his staff. Suddenly Tameron grabbed the large birdlike man from under his shoulders. "Get him NOW!" Tameron exclaimed. Seeing their opening, Flaron inserted her remaining chip and her and Omnidec's weapons glowed before swinging their weapons, sending energy projectiles towards Rox. The attacks connected, leaving two scorch marks and exposing Rox's armored chest. Seeing this, Omnidec and Flaron readied a second attack but immediately Rox threw Tameron on the ground before him. "Tameron move!" Omnidec shouted but Tameron spun towards Rox and opened fire, however Rox ducked out of the way, forcing Omnidec and Flaron to power down their weapons. The three humonculi then chased after Rox only for the duck man to turn to them and raise his weapon. Suddenly the house shook, causing Rox to look out to see Richant falling down outside and quickly did his tornado move upwards, smashing a hole in the roof, and immediately they see the tornado outside and pick up Richant before vanishing in a golden beam of light. "Shoot!" Omnidec exclaimed, turning to Tameron, "Tameron, Flaorn, what are they-?" Realizing Omnidec was watching them, the two broke off as Omnidec asked, "What the heck are you doing?" Tameron's face mask closed back up (He can do that.) and said, "Err I can explain.." "No," Flaron said, "let me explain-" Suddenly a loud boom was heard outside. "Ah no, what now!?" Omnidec said as the three rushed outside.
Outside was Tarrot standing with Vandrin and Twin Drake on the front yard as Omnidec and the others left the house as a helmetless Kaiser held a similarly helmetless Voidmond by the collar of his chestplate. "What the heck WAS THAT!?" Kaiser demanded, "Why didn't you do that earlier in the quarry!?" "What?" Vandrin asked. "Weapons testing!" Kaiser exclaimed before turning to Voidmond and saying, "What was that? Please tell me!" "Kaiser! " Tarrot exclaimed, pulling Kaiser off of the humonculi, "What the heck just happened? I thought you were just hunting monsters!" "HOLY SMOKES!" Primo said finding the Age Eater's head, "What did you do!?" "That was not us." Voidmond explained, "I think they were jewels." "Jewels!?" Twin Drake exclaimed, sweating bullets, "Were they here when you arrived?" "Yeah," Kaiser said, "Voidmond sent one of them flying, to bad they got away." "Voidmond what?" Twin Drake exclaimed, "Wait, where's Flip?" "Right here." Flipp said coming out of from behind the house, "Primo and I waited outside while they kept the scythe man busy." "Scythe Man?" Twin drake asked before Kaiser answered, "A nasty mother-" "Enough!" Tarrot exclaimed, "We need to head back. Verdtrus and Eithine are waiting for us and our two friends here as well." "Excuse me?" Jerry asked approaching the group, "We're just helping your friends, that's it!" "That's just it," Vandrin explained "Eithine would like to speak with you two, that's all." Approaching Tarrot, Jerry asked, "What did you tell them?" "You'll find out." Tarrot said turning to Kaiser and Voidmond. "You!" He said to the two, "Eithine and Verdtus want you too."

Meanwhile
Earlier, Mordecai stood outside on the balcony with a phone in hand. "Don't worry Mordecai," Louise said on the other end of the phone line, "You're doing the right thing." "I don't know," Mordecai said, "I know, but I'm worried about Voidmond, are you sure the CPDF are able to stop him?" "They've dealt with the Red Dragon army before, they can do it again." "Really?" Mordecai said, "They've failed to stop the Requiem Knights before, how should I be relieved when they can't even stop one of them." In a cafe down the street, "I've heard from a friend of mine that there were several monsters during the attacks, like the one Omnidec used to guard us." "Monsters?" Mordecai asked, "What do you mean?" "Well," Louise said, "I have no idea but you can ask the CPDF, they apparently have them in containment." "Alright thanks." Mordecai said, "See you soon." Turning off the phone, Mordecai walked into his apartment and grabbed his jacket. "I'll be back in a few, go to run an errand. " He said texting to Karka before putting the phone away and opening the door.
Now in the hangar the team stood as Katie and Chipp returned. "Okay guys, here's what we'll do." Chipp said in front of his team, "We will go in two groups, one for the North Atlantia, and one for the South Atlantia. The first group will be lead by Katie, and it will consist of-" "Chipp!" a voice called out, "Can I have a word?" Turning to the source of the voice, the team found Mordecai in the hangar entry. "(How did he get in?)" Q asked as Chipp and Bartch walked towards the draken. Seeing the draken as well, Beo also got up as Chipp approached Mordecai. "What do you want?" Chipp said "We we're about to head out." "Were did they get the monsters?" Mordecai asked, casuing Chipp to blink. "What? Who's got monsters?" Chipp asked. "The knights." Mordecai explained, "I've heard that they've been using monsters to do their dirty work, like the one Omnidec sent to guard us. I want to know how they got them." "Oh," Chipp said, "those monsters." "Well," Bartch started, "they are constructs, originating from the requiem chips that Verdian Jayson stole from Lightbringer's lab." "What?" Mordecai exclaimed, "But Verdian told me-!" "Look, I get it," Chipp said, "you trusted the guy because he helped you before, but he was probably using you." "Then let me join!" Mordecai demanded, "It is true that I helped him, but I also know Verdtrus, I can help you stop him if it means stopping these monsters!" "I'm sorry," Chipp answered, "but how are you going to help us on the field?" "I can use the F.U.Z.O.R! I built it, and I know how it works!" "Chipp, you might be jumping the gun here!" Bartch advised, "We should get everything we can from Mordecai before we head out." "But I got approval from the Head Chief!" Chipp said, "Who going to -!" "What's more important?" Bartch asked "Red Dragon or your job? Besides a lead is right in front of us." "Alright! Fine." Chipp said turning to Mordecai, "Tell us all about Verdtrus and I'll think about it." "Chipp!" Bartch protested, but Chipp said, "I said I would think about it." "Ok." Mordecai said, "It's a long story."
