"That took a bit but, it's finally done" Zero thought

Swift had left the colosseum

Swift went to the cloud 9 hideout, it was a large, dark run down building made out of stone, there was a stone table in the middle with nine separate chairs labeled from 1-9

Swift sat down at the chair labeled 7

"So you didn't win the tournament?" Sigmund said disappointed seated at the far end of the table

"Oh are we having a meeting?" Lane said walking in from the side, yawning

The building shook slightly as Zayden walked in

"Aren't you able to go to a regular size?" Swift said staring at Zayden

"This is normal size to me, you all are just small" Zayden said smiling at Swift

Zayden now had black pants that had a strap around the middle of his feet

"Then turn small" Sigmund said

Zayden went down to a regular size

Zayden sat at the chair labeled 5

Lane sat at the chair labeled 8

Steam ran down from the ceiling giving form to Arial

Serif emerged from the shadows

"What's this about?" Serif scoffed

"Maybe it's important :)" Arial said

Arial sat at the chair labeled 6

Serif sat at the chair labeled 4

A sharp gust of wind blew past Sigmund

Sigmund looked to the side of him and Silver was sitting in the chair labeled 3 with his eyes closed and arms crossed

Anti walked into the room, sitting at the chair labeled 9

Multiple dark wires brought Dreads body into his chair labeled 2

"Then cloud 9 has gathered" Sigmund said smirking

"So what's the meeting about?" Zayden asked putting his legs on the table

"Our member Swift entered a local tournament" Sigmund said

"That's important enough to bring all of us here?" Silver asked annoyed

Dread released a wire from his hand attempting to stab Silver

Silver quickly sliced the wire in half

Sigmund stood up and slapped Dread

"We are free to say whatever we want in here" Sigmund said, sitting back in his chair

"Well did he win?" Lane asked bouncing his leg

"Nope" Swift said

"So then why should we care" Serif said

"Because it means someone managed to beat Swift" Sigmund said

"So? He's the 7th strongest, that shouldn't matter" Anti said

"You're one to talk" Silver said grinning

"Watch me take your spot" Anti said slamming the table with sludge forming around his hand

"No fighting" Sigmund said

"And Swift here was at a point where he was the third strongest" Sigmund said

"I forgot that was thing" Zayden said

"Well who beat him?" Lane asked

"Some kid named..." Sigmund said

"Zero" Swift said

"Zero, that was it" Sigmund said snapping

"Zero?" Zayden said smiling

"Zero..." Serif said clenching his fist

"Zero? :(" Arial said looking at Serif

"Zero" Anti said stating at Swift

"Zero.." Silver said agitated

"Zero" Lane said looking at Zayden

"Seems like you've all met the guy" Sigmund said surprised

"Oh how I miss him" Zayden said hugging himself

"He somehow sent me flying" Silver said even more agitated

"Heh, so the kid has some strength on him" Sigmund said

"wasn't he Mobius's pupil" Dread whispered to Sigmund

"Was he?" Sigmund asked

"That would make sense" Sigmund said

"What did he say?" Swift asked

"Nothing important" Sigmund said

"Are we going after him" Serif said

"Not yet, I wanna see if he leaves anything else behind" Sigmund said

"If you do see him, do not engage, he'd probably kill you all" Sigmund said shrugging

"I can't make any promises" Zayden said

"Meeting dismissed" Sigmund said

Everyone left the building

Silver walked through the woods

Suddenly he was grabbed by a giant hand

"Hey silver" Zayden said

"What do you want" Silver asked

"Do you wanna go mess around with some random knights?" Zayden said

"The Royal guard?" Swift asked

"Yeah that, didn't you get into one group just to beat everyone in it?" Zayden asked

"I did, now put me down" Silver said

Zayden put Silver down and went to a normal size

"Now which team would we attack?" Zayden asked

"I have knowledge of each squad location, I infiltrated that squad to steal the locations of each teams base" Silver said

"Then can you bring us to Zeros team?" Zayden asked

"Nope, off limits" Silver said

"Awww" Zayden said sadly

"Crimson flame, that will be the squad we attack" Silver said

"Let's go" Zayden said happily

Zayden and Silver traveled a curved route through the forest until they reached a black and red neoclassical temple with lava pouring from the sides

Silver slowly drew his sword

"This has to be about stealth first" Silver said

"You think guy who's a giant is stealthy?" Zayden asked putting his hand on Silvers head

"Just follow my lead" Silver said taking Zaydens hand off of his head, slowly moving forward

They slowly entered the building

Inside there was a meeting room, with red banners, pews, and a large stand

There was a meeting going on

"As of today the annual signori tournament has ended, marking the beginning of guardia robusta, which means we must be at some of our peak performances" The Leader of Crimson Flame said

-Character-

Raiden:

Main abilities: Fire

Subclass abilities: Thunder, Lightning, Enhanced Sense

Raiki: Zaki, Seki, Guki

Raiden should be pictured as a tall man with long red hair, red eyes, silver armor, and a giant crimson cape

The members sitting down, had a difference between black and red hair, long and short, all with light bronze armor

"We're dealing with one of the most professional squads" Silver whispered

"So why don't I just crush the place" Zayden whispered smirking

"Simple, their leader could kill you before you do it" Silver whispered

"I'm immortal remember, the gem" Zayden whispered

"You'll wish you weren't if you slip up" Silver whispered

"You two there, hiding in the dark, show yourselves now" Raiden said

Silver got a chill down his back

"Reveal yourself before I am forced to strike you down" Raiden said as electricity started twirling around his fingers

Zayden and Silver walked out from the dark

"You two don't appear to be apart of this squad, nor friendly, state why you have intruded this building" Raiden said

"To clean the entire lot of you up" Silver said drawing his sword

Zayden cracked his knuckles

The squad members began to rise

"Sit!" Raiden shouted lifting his hand in the air

"Allow me to demonstrate the power of your captain" Raiden said flaring his cape

"How did you notice us?" Silver said

"Crimson eyes, I can notice all heat, you could be the stealthiest operative of all time and I could still see you, even with my eyes closed" Raiden said

"Now" Raiden said

Suddenly thunder boomed around the area a lightning bolt struck near Raiden as he instantly grabbed the bolt of lightning shaping it into a staff with his other hand

"This mighty weapon here is called Zeus's conductor" Raiden said

"Step outside will you?" Raiden said instantly zapping behind Swift and Zayden

Suddenly they were outside the building

"Now... let's have some fun" Raiden said grinning

Zeus began to twirl the staff in front of him

Three lighting bolts struck Silver but he was able to block and dodge them

"Impressive, a simple thug would have been disintegrated immediately" Raiden said

"Do you take us for simple thugs?" Silver asked

"Of course not, such trash wouldn't have even made it into my building" Raiden said

"Let's get this going" Zayden said

Zayden began to grow

"A giant? So you truly must be that group that's been getting talked about" Raiden said

"The only existing male giant is apart of that group" Raiden said

"Then you should prepare yourself" Silver said forming a second sword in his other hand

"Dual Caliburn" Silver said as both swords were shadowed with darkness, an opposite to Excalibur

Silver rushed at Raiden slashing every area in front of him

Raiden dodged, weaved, and parried each attack

Silver flipped one sword behind him

Silver slashed at Raiden with the forward sword and sliced with the backward one

Silver continued switching positions constantly slashing, stabbing and slicing

Raiden blocked each attack with his staff

Raiden twirled his staff in the middle of silvers attacks, locking both swords in between it

Raiden lifted his staff and slammed the back of it into silvers stomach

Silver was struck by lighting

Zayden tried to stomp on Raiden

Raiden bounced himself off of his pole, and launched himself of your Zaydens face

Zayden tried to spit on Raiden but Raiden zipped past it

Raiden slammed Zayden in the face, repeatedly striking him

"Jupiter!" Raiden shouted as the leaped high up into the air forming his staff into a gigantic lightning bolt and firing it at Zayden and Silver

Raiden slowly drifted down to the ground

"I felt what you have within you, immortality, the ultimate strike Jupiter would be enough to knock you clean out, and possibly disintegrate your friend" Raiden said

Zayden was covering Silver

Both were covered in dust and unconscious

"Hm, seems you value protecting each other" Raiden said

Raiden walked back into the crimson flame base

"Keep this in mind, work more with your team, and know who you're up against, from what i sense in you, you could've taken out other squads" Raiden said before entering the building

Silver and Zayden slowly disappeared in steam
