Sword of Darkness Part 4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	Allright, this series is getting weired, but hey, "What's the point
 of being alive, if you can't live." (Okay, I will document this quote,
Electra King, 007: The World is Not Enough. I'm sorry, but, that was a good
movie.) Anyway, here goes another peice of insanity for you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

	"Listen, in case you didn't notice, MewTwo could have killed us
 without trying. The Sword of Darkness is infused with more Vortex power than
I am, and half my body IS PURE VORTEX ENERGY!" Frag gave me a "your point
is?" look. I then grabbed him, and threw him in a portal, however, instead of
appearing in Nexus Central Command, we slammed in the shield. "Man, not
again! Wait, this is the real shield, but we should have passed right through
it." Frag looked at me, " 'Should' is the operative word here." I looked up
for a second, "Supreme Gaurdian Overide, code is C-H-O-S-E-N-1-25thg874s."
With that, the sheild dropped without an problem, "Hmm, Shane having that
infused hacker skill he does, I figured he would have taken out my personal
overide code. No matter, let's go." Again, I grabbed him and we entered the
Station.

	"Wait, were not in the main hanger, why?" I didn't turn, just kept
running, "Easy, any authorized, and even non-authorized, traffic enters
there, so that means the security is tightest there. This is the Supreme
Gaurdian hanger, less security, less people. I'm can probably count the
number of people who even know of this hanger on my fingers." When we got to
the Hall, I stopped. "What now? Let me guess, Shane and the Yokell group are
out there, right?" The glare he got from me shut him up, temporarily. "Now
listen to me and listen good, you bust out there like you normally do and
half of Nexus Central Command is on your butt in three seconds, the rest in
another two maybe three, if your lucky. However, you follow my lead, and
nothing will happen. I know all of the gaurds, and they know me. I also
designed the security devices for this hall, they're the best you can find
anywhere, but if you know how they work there's nothing to getting past
them."

	"Okay, here we are at the Vault. If there is anything on that sword
of MewTwo's, it's in here." I walked to the archives, while Frag seemed awed
at the stuff in here, "Man, I would kill for these weapons." I barely stopped
him from firing the bazooka he had in his hands, "Listen, you be good and help me find what we need, and I'll turn my back when you go to gank a few
 of these toys, deal?" "Deal!" Shaking my head, I led him to the archival
section of the Vault.

	After what seemed like days, we finally found what we were looking
 for, information on the four extremes. "Ray, I think I found something!"
Going over to where he stood, I looked at the file in question. "Interesting,
there's no information on the source of power in the Swords. But, the
Ultimate Force appear to be powered by hopes and dreams of all things, while
Lucifer's Key is powered by the inert wish of people to destroy all that is.
Man, this is bad, very bad." Looking me in the eye, "I thought that was Bob's
line?" The punch in the gut I gave him must have reminded him of what
happened to Bob. "Guess that's still a sore subject." "Let's get back to
work." After a few more hours of fruitless searching, we pretty much gave up.
"All we're doing now is waisting time, unless we search through the remnants
of the Destroyer Library, but I'm not sure weather or not it's still there.
Kinda toasted a good deal of it when fighting Omega Weapon." Frag pulled out
his comunicator, "Jase, get out to 3rd Earth, Gomisaki has the numbers for
the jump. We'll see you there." He grabbed me, created a portal, and flew
into an indistructable barrier. I shook my head, "This vault is the most
sheilded thing in all existance, nothing you do will get you in or out unless
it's the front door. Follow me." I scanned the outside of the room, and
finding no one there, we walked out, THEN created the portal to Gomisaki.

	"JASE YOU FREAK, WHEN HE SAID BRING GOMISAKI, HE MEANT GOMISAKI AND
MY CRUISER!" I think he still remembered the beating I gave him last time we
met, because he was cowering the corner while I screamed at him. "Not that it
matters, COMPUTER: CALL ROAM!" Frag looked at me, "Roam? Isn't that the name
of that Gaurdian who befriended you when you started? OOF!" Again, a punch in
the gut to remind him of what happened in the past, "Man, you sure do hold
onto the past, don't you?" "Sometimes the past is better to hold onto. The
past won't change, won't turn on you, proves you did SOMETHING good in your
life. The present constantly becomes the past, so there is no reason to hold
onto it, and the future is uncertain, able to change with one movement, one
word uttered at the wrong time." Everyone on the bridge was shocked at the
depth of that statement, "Man, aren't you Mister Gothic tonight?" The glare I
gave Brick Boy shut him up. "Cinder Block Man! Block Man Cinder." We all just
looked at Brick Boy, "He said, 'Maybe we should just look for the problem,
before trying to find the answer." The nods around the room affirmed
everyone's descion, though I did whisper to Frag, "How did he get that from
the words 'Cinder Block Man?" He whispered back, "No one knows, I did hear
some one theorize Brick Boy just B.S.'s something that sounds really good,
and Cinder Block Man takes credit." "Oh."

	"Hey Ray, since your room is right across from mine, would you mind
 grabbing a bottle of scotch and sending it up?" "Why not get the new guy to
do it?" He thought for a second, "He's what, 10? He needs to wait a few years
for something that strong, it'll knock him flat with a swig." "Uh, Frag, I'm
a minor. Well, officialy I'm 16." Everyone looked up, "And unofficially?" I
did some quick calculations, "All told, I'm about 421." Anubis challenged it,
"You look like a minor," "And you look like your in your early 30's, when
your over 450." Anyway, I went to get the scotch. When I opened the hidden
compartment, I saw what appeared to be gym socks with green berrets on. I
laughed, untill they drew lasers that looked conspicously like Goldeneye's
Moonraker. "HEY, OW, THOSE THINGS HURT!" I grabbed the scotch and went
foreward to tell this weird tale.

	"So, the gym socks bursts into flames when they fired their weapons?"
 I nodded, "I figured they had got into your liquor, mostly becuase that was
the only bottle with anything left. I guess the heat from their weapons
caused the alcohol in them to ignite." Frag looked down, "Damn, should have
taken the Gym Sock Society down when they developed mid-evil catapults."

	Well, that is pretty much the day we have around Gomisaki and Roam.
We did actually do some work at times, but I swear I am not used to ships
that can take a human form. Gomisaki walked up to me one night, and I nearly
blasted a hole through her gut. Anyway, we are still no closer to finding
MewTwo, and that has me real worried.
