Chapter 12 - Oscura's SpeechView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 12 - Oscura's SpeechOscura City, The Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, 10:58 “I can’t believe that we just got outsmarted by Danger and his, pitiful cohorts” Anastasia growled as she laid down on the couch. “I thought we could hope in a way but we were just a bit late!” Thundershock said, trying to simmer the boiling temperature of Anastasia’s anger. “but if only Oscura didn’t try to capture Danger we would have at least had an emergency meeting to rediscuss our strats. Anastasia’s sighed. “I know, Thundershock. But we are outmatched by the Legion of Speedfreaks. What’s worse is that they are getting more and more members by the hour.” She groaned. “I don’t know why Oscura has a long standing hatred with him.” “You are her sister in all, but sometimes…” Thundershock paused. “…she needs to listen to more… decisive plans.” “But, Thundershock.” Anastasia stood up, with tears dripping down. “We Galaxias are the most powerful family in this world, even more powerful and Celestia and Luna combined. We despise the Royal Sisters as much as Oscura hates Danger.” “With a burning passion I guess.” Thundershock assumed. “So I ask you this.” Anastasia continued. “Do you know why we were outsmarted by the Legion of Speedfreaks?” Thundershock shook her head. “They’re teaming up with somebody called the ‘Demon Lord’ who I never even heard in my whole life. THAT’S WHY!” Anastasia boomed.” As Anastasia sobbed, Thundershock decided to head out of the room and talk to someone that would have an easier time with her. She had some people in mind: Dark Flame, Adagio Dazzle and Tenebrisa Galaxia. She didn’t choose Oscura because she feared she wouldn’t live another hour. “Where are going?!” Anastasia demanded. Thundershock didn’t listen. “UGH!” Anastasia fell down to the couch again as her crying could be heard from across the room, which Thundershock blatantly igonred again. Then, twenty seconds later, she remembered that Oscura is starting to assemble another army called ‘The Eternal Army of Darkness’ with herself as general. The Eternal Army of Darkness consisted of 15 OAV6 Impalers, 20 OSC5 Imperator Superlight Urban Interceptors 5 OAV8 Maledicta Super Heavy Urban Assualt Vehicles and one Nemesis-class Airship, capable of holding 16 heavy-modified BAE Systems Tempests and 20 of her latest fighter project, the OJF1 Dragonscreecher and 10 modified B-2 Spirit bombers. With more coming from 20 different cities and metropolises within the terrority of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, the proper battle will begin. Anastasia thought that Oscura was on the lines of ‘insane’ and ‘maniac’. But knowing Oscura, she’s probably both. Danger City, The Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Control Room, 11:01 Meanwhile, Danger was in the main control typing on the console for more information on the memory sticks which he and Akula stole from the abandoned factory a few weeks ago. He noticed on one of the folders that the OSC1 Nemesis was in the files. “Now what do we have here?” Danger said to himself. "DANGER!" She exciaimed. "What's the matter Dashie!" Danger asked her, not pointing out the fact that she forgot to knock. "You'll never believe this, our TV monitors are display a podium with banner with an 'O' and a 'G' inside the 'O' and two smaller banners with dragon symbolisms." Rainbow explained. That was enough to make Danger believe that it was Oscura. Without saying a word, Danger rushed towards the lift for the penthouse with Rainbow following him. But what Rainbow didn’t tell Danger is that Oscura has hacked into every TV in the world, including Danger City and what’s worse is that Oscura built a squad of four huge robots. ‘The Destroyers for the Alliance’ was the name that Oscura gave them. The robots were on a targeting course for Canterlot City, more specfically Crystal Prep and Canterlot High School. Both schools were one of the many supporters of the Legion of Speedfreaks with what Oscura thought as a ‘stupid move to defeat me’. With all of the members of the Legion of Speedfreaks now in the penthouse, they began to listen to what the Alliance plans for the Legion, Crystal Prep and Canterlot High School. And they couldn’t have come at a better time. The monitor displayed with exactly what Rainbow had seen previously, the same banners with the ‘O’ with the ‘G’ inside and dragons dotted all over the podium room. Approaching the podium was not Oscura as she hadn’t arrived the podium because she wanted to deliver the main speech. Her youngest cousin, Lolestra Cassiopoeia Maledicta (her short name was Lolestra Maledicta), took up the stage. Lolestra was wearing a variant of Oscura’s outfit, but her version wasn’t the same as her’s. Her version was more flared than Oscura’s and had red diagonal stripes on the lower portion. “Who is she?” Danger ask anyone who was available to reply. “Lolestra Maledicta, Oscura’s youngest cousin.” Black Flame responded in time. “Why does the Alliance have that many names that sounds like… Latin or whatever names comes up on video games.” Akula said. But before Danger could respond nudged Akula because Lolestra was beginning her speech. “As you may have been aware over the last couple of days that Oscura is planning an army so powerful in fact… that the Legion of Speedfreaks will be shaken… to the core!” Lolestra began. “I assure you, that no matter whatever the Legion may throw at us… we will deliver a much harder and much more fierce punch towards the treachery of the two bases in Equestria: Cantlerlot High School… and Crystal Prep. And also the Legion’s headquarters in Danger City.” “She’s making as much sense as a computer that crashed. Aria jokingly said. “Shut up, Aria. I’m trying to listen!” Danger said, trying to divert Aria from her delusions. “Canterlot High School and Crystal Prep seem like a staging ground more members for the Legion.” Lolestra continued. “And I’m sure that if we turn the tables around a bit, they will see that we… are the most superior army in the world.” Not if we have anything to say to that! Rainbow thought. “Now, we must level the playing field slightly and… Oscura would like to say a few words.” Lolestra said, wrapping up her speech and at that moment, Oscura entered the room. Oh boy, here we go. Danger thought as he let out a big sigh. He knew that whatever comes out of Oscura’s mouth, he’s not gonna like it. Two seconds pass, with the Legion’s ears on ‘full listening mode’, Oscura began her speech. “With the Legion of Speedfreaks getting more and more members each passing makes me sick to the stomach.” Oscura began speech-esque rant. “It’s like they are plotting something against us. Not for our advantage, but for THEIRS. Both Crystal Prep and Canterlot cannot be allowed to send reinforcements to aid the treachery of the loathsome Legion. When Midnight Skies betrayed me… while I was laying on the floor in Paradise City, I felt a hatred in me, so fierce in fact, that it wants me to RIP HER HEART ON OF HER BODY!” The crowd applauded as anger drew Oscura in more than ever before. “We live in changing world, Oscura City. But the change sometimes happens without us knowing.” Oscura continued. “But is there a time where WE make the change happen? The Legion of Speedfreaks didn’t want to make me do this. BUT THERE WILL BE SEVERAL VEHICLES DESTROYED. SKYSCRAPES COLLAPSING IN ON THEMSELVES. A SURGE OF POWER. A SURGE OF GLORY. WHEN THE CRIMSON SOLAR ECLIPSE RISES!” The crowd applauded which led to cheering and approximately 180,000 civilians chanting ‘GLORY TO OSCURA’ while punching the sky which The Eternal Army of Darkness following suit. Aria meanwhile, was in shock with what came from Oscura, while thinking she has going completely insane. “Today, marks an end of era for Canterlot High School and Crystal Prep.” Oscura was near towards the end. “The end of a legacy that acquises to disharmony. In this exact moment in time, in two cities far from here, the two academic school LIES to every city in the world, while supporting the Legion of Speedfreaks, to defeat us in vehicular warfare. This fierce organization which you have constructed, upon which we stand, will bring an abrupt end to their assistance and their stupid, pathetic plans of vengeance upon us. ALL REMAINING CITIES WILL BOW TO THE ALLIANCE OF EXTREME DARKNESS! AND WILL REMEMBER THIS, AS THE LAST DAY OF THE LEGION OF SPEEDFREAKS!” This led to the same chant to be looped about 35 times “Oh sweet Celestia.” Crimsonia said in horror. “She is evil!” Twilight said in shock as it was her former school Oscura was planning to eliminate of the face of the earth “You’re not kidding.” Akula replied to Twilight comment. “If you thought Sombra was bad, you’re in for a wild because… the endgame battle, a battle against odds that will break the scales in half, a skirmish that some of us may not live to see the next sunset… is about to begin! And we will not rest… until the last breath of our body has spent.” “REMEMBER WHAT YOU FIGHT FOR, OSCURA CITY, FOR YOUR HONOUR, FOR THE ALLIANCE OF EXTREME DARKNESS, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, FIGHT FOR EMPRESS OF EXTREME DARKNESS, MYSELF: OSCURA GALAXIA!” Oscura boomed as the crowd applauded fericiously.
Chapter 13 - When Someone's Sanity DisintergratesView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 13 - When Someone's Sanity Disintergrates“Why do you think Oscura is worse than Sombra, Danger?” Akula first asked Danger. “The fact that she has a decade long hatred with me bring me to the conclusion that she really wants to get rid of me for good.” Danger sighed. “I need to do something real quick.” “What’s that?” Akula said in a mix of confusion and concerned emotions. “I need to let the Legion of Speedfreak HQs at Canterlot City and Crystal City know that Oscura is planning to attack CHS and Crystal Prep. They’re probably had a firewall put in place to protect themselves for any Alliance-spec virus that may infect their computers.” “I help you, Danger.” Rainbow announced. “Danger, what you doing!” “They need to reminded about the robots that Oscura sent. They can wipe out entire buildings with a single blast.” Danger shouted across the room. Canterlot City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ Canterlot City, 11:06 While Danger and Rainbow were heading to the main control room to transmit a message to the Legion’s headquarters, which is located in the very centre of Canterlot City. The headquarters itself was only a five-minute walk to Canterlot High School. The headquarters was only akin to the building in Danger City. In the building’s pentahouse, four girls by the names of Meridian Dawnflare, Ara Swordblaze. Ceres Radiance and Sapphiria Daybreaker were waiting for news from Danger City about Oscura. Meridian Dawnflare was originally from Sparkopolis but moved to Canterlot City before the Battle of the Bands, an event that culimated to Danger never mentioning to Aria for the past seven years. (Even though Danger secretly belived to the both groups, the Dazzlings and the Rainbooms won.) Meridian was wearing a similar outfit to what Pinkie wore during the Rainboom’s duel with the Dazzlings. The difference with Meridian’s is that instead of balloons and confetti, there imprints of flames and dragons and a large red two-headed dragon symbolism on the breast area. She was also wearing tights with the left leg in red and the right leg in orange. Her shoes were like Rarity’s but white with thin red stripes Ara Swordblaze was originally from Las Pegasus but she moved to Canterlot City before Oscura began her revenge on Danger. She was wearing a t-shirt with a sword and a fireball. She was also wearing tight jeans with a patch on her right leg with the Legion of Speedfreaks emblem and the motto. The Legion of Speedfreaks motto is ‘In the name of speed and power, we shall ride into the sunset’ in a circle and she was wearing the same shoes as Black Flame. Ceres Radiance, before the Dazzlings entered Canterlot High School was working in the Danger City branch of Rarity’s botique. But became a Speedfreak Legionnare two days after Aria Blaze met Danger. Ceres was wearing the same outfit style as Rarity but coloured white and a lighter purple. Her shoes were also similar to Rarity’s but there are coloured turquoise. Sapphiria Daybreaker was different to the other three girls. She is Crimsonia Dragonsfire’s cousin who she hasn’t see in about three months (Most of it was because of Crimsonia being in the Battle of Paradise City) Sapphiria was wearing a collared t-shirt with a sun design and the words ‘The sun shall guide me.’ Crimsonia didn’t know she was wearing the shirt which maybe was created by Danger. She was also wearing a skirt similar to Rarity’s but was coloured orange. He was also wearing the same shoe style as Pinkie’s but was entirely colured red and it had a sun symbolism on the heel. Ceres had no idea what Danger was going to tell the other three girls. But she knew that Sapphiria was eager to see Crimsonia. “Do you think Oscura is planning to eliminate the Legion of Speedfreaks?” Ara said, feeling her purple hair. “Or do you think she’s gonna like… chicken out.” “Ara, you’re been dumb again.” Sapphiria sighed. “Oscura’s not the sort of person who would chicken out. The Alliance is building incredibly huge weapons of vehicluar destruction. It’s not like Oscura isn’t serious if she’s wanting to kill Danger. “Yeah, I know but…” Ara wanted to protest Sapphiria’s logic, but before she could that, Sapphiria’s phone rang. “Who is that, Sapphiria?” Ceres asked. “It’s Danger, it’s probably about the robots Oscura sent. Sapphiria replied. “Excuse me while I take this call.” After two seconds. Sapphiria answered the call. “Hello.” “Sapphiria, this is Danger Dean from the Legion of Speedfreaks Headquarters in Danger City. You need to tell Ceres, Ara and Meridian and every member of the HQ Canterlot City to evacuate. The robots are 20 minutes away and they have the Alliance’s best weponery on them.” Danger instructed. “Why, Danger? Everything seems to be under control as the shields will hold off the two robots for the rest of eternity.” Sapphiria said in confidence. But Danger thought otherwise. “You may think your defences can hold them off. But I think not.” Danger said. “The shield you have in place can only withstand about 20 to 30 laser shots. After that, the buildings will be vunerable to any sort of weaponry. Whether it’d be a laser shot, rocket, an electro-magnetic pulse shot or a bomb. They will cause siginificant damage.” “What you say, Danger is entirely true. I will tell Ara and the others that we will evacuate to… where exactly?” Sapphiria said in forgetfulness “Danger City seems preferable.” Danger suggested. “Danger City it is then, I’ll tell them right now. What will you do will we set off for your headquarters?” Sapphiria then asked. “I need to let Crystal City HQ know that the other two robots are incoming.” Danger replied. “You know what to need to do, Danger.” Sapphiria announced. “OK, we’ll see you at the HQ then.” “OK, Sapphiria. See you later.” Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ Danger City, 11:09 After Danger finished talking to Sapphiria, he was planning to tell Ariel Everflame, the leader of the Crystal City HQ of the Legion of Speedfreaks But before he could do that, Aria Blaze headed to the communications room where Danger is located. “Danger, you know when you decided to tell Sapphiria that you want her to evacuate to Danger City. Along with Ceres, Meridian and Ara” Aria said. “Couldn’t you have just gone to Canterlot City in your… oh I don’t know… your Tempesta and told her.” “There’s two reasons why I didn’t do that.” Danger replied. “Why’s that?” “Firstly, there are three ways you can get from Danger City to Canterlot. The first way is the Pan-Equestrian Mass Transit Line or the PEMTL. The line runs from Canterlot itself to the most northern city on the map which is Nova Helios, approximately 9,000 miles from here or 12,600 miles from Canterlot. The second way is by a cross-sea ferry from Danger City Harbour and the final way is by flight from DGX International Airport.” Danger explained. “The reason I didn’t use any those of methods is that anywhere that is not in Legion of Speedfreaks terriorty,more specifically anywhere this under control of the Allaince of Extreme Darkness, Oscura has the skies, ground and sea covered either by airborne scouting probes, scout-spec interceptors and probes built for any depth of water.” Aria understood what Danger said as it was too risky. “The second reason is that the fuel tank on my Tempesta got slightly punctured when we came out the portal from Paradise City a couple of weeks back. If the tank isn’t replaced. I won’t be able to use the Tempesta for about two or three weeks.” “OK, Danger. By you're logic, which I would be an absolute fool to not listen to, we can’t get there by vehicle, flight or mass transit. But we may be able to teleport them to Danger City HQ, which might save a journey.” Aria thought. “I never thought of that Aria.” Danger conceeded the fact that he told Sapphiria two days ago to install a teleportation device in Canterlot. "I think they might be able to access it." Oscura City, Alliance of the Extreme Darkness HQ, 11:10 While the members of both Canterlot and Crystal City evacuated to Danger City, Oscura was in the shower to make herself fresh for any future events as it was Lolestra who recommended it. At first, she was relaxed after her fiery speech eariler, but then she had a vision consisting of herself and her mother, Rosa Galaxia. The fact she hasn’t seen her for at least ten years started to plague her mind, even though it was already shattered by the Legion of Speedfreaks. As the flashback progressed, she accumilated short-term schizophrenia, meaning Rosa’s voice echoed in her brain, the room, even Oscura City sometimes hear the exact voice of a mother who left her daughter because of her brutal hatred with Danger. “Oscura, if you try to harm this man once, I swear I will leave for good.” Rosa’s voice echoed. “But please! He has been a utter, diabolical wretch since he destroy my car in the race.” Oscura’s younger voice echoed. Ugh, these voices… driving me… mad. Oscura thought as drips of water splash on her lavender skin. “I’m not giving you any more chances.” Rosa’s voice echoed again. “Refrain from seeing him, I order you.” Mother, stop cursing my fucking soul, please! Oscura thought to herself again. She knew that if she hears Rosa’s once more, she will lose what’s left of her sanity. But then, it happened. As Oscura sat down on the shower, covering her face with her hands and started to sob as Rosa voice, once again, went rampant in her mind. “Do you accept my demands, child?” “NEVER!” Oscura’s younger voice boomed. “I WILL NEVER BE ORDERED TO DO SOMETHING EVEN IT MEANS...” Her voice turned evil as her irises turned to blood-red. “I KILL HIM!” “OK, that is the final straw, Oscura Maledicta Galaxia, I will leave you to your own devices with your sisters, cousin and your friends.” Rosa announced, leaving the young Oscura, practically forever. “Fine!” The young Oscura spat furiously. “I don’t need you anymore, you just a literal concrete wall that’s keeping me from torturing Danger and killing him. Don’t come to me if you want to return. You will never beg for mercy, because… I’m stronger than you think, Rosa. Much stronger.” “You’re delaying me, Oscura.” Rosa remarked as she was meters away the exit of the door “I don’t care!” Oscura yelled at Rosa in tears. “You used to care for me. And teach me, ever since I wanted to become the driver of my dreams, but where you when I was in barrier in that race. WHERE WERE YOU?” “Don’t shout at me like that, young girl” Rosa demanded. “Young girl! YOUNG GIRL! Pfft!” Oscura was having none of it, her eyes were deluged with tears. “I’m old enough to make my own decision, I don’t need you to dictate my life, my prefect life now revolves around my sisters, Anastasia and Tenebrisa. You are nothing to me, Rosa. NOTHiNG!” Oscura herself was still crying over Rosa’s voice. She originally was her mother, but now, she was nothing but a pawn to Oscura’s revenge on Danger. Her sanity was at a new low, but she now thinks that the only way to relive the pressure off of her… was to erase Rosa from existence “And what makes thing better for me is that if you were never in my life. Go, rot in Tartarus for I care, cause I won’t be behind lock and key where you belong. No. I will living in the perfect lifestyle with the family member who still care for me, unlike you!” Oscura continued her rant. “And yet it would be more than perfect, it would be astonishing. But you just had to limit my power so I can’t use it to kill that wretch of Danger Dean. My power when you vanish from the face of the planet will be limitless.” Now Oscura herself was now at terminal breaking point. The fact she had to use a hate-filled monologue against her own mother was the reason she wanted to get rid of Danger. And wrecking her Uberschall Clear-view multiple times was just the bottom of the iceberg. She now has no control over her weeping and her cries can now be heard throughout the Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, with Dark Flame hearing it first. “What’s that noise? Sounds like somebody after a funeral or something.” Dark Flame remarked. “I think Oscura’s not feeling well.” Anastasia replied as she was also in the same room as Dark Flame. “I told to her to take shower after her speech 10 minutes ago, but now… now…” “Now what?” Dark Flame asked. “She’s now gone insane and… I don’t she’s mentally prepared for another skirmish. I’m gonna check on her.” Anastasia became worried over Oscura. Dark Flame facepalmed, thinking that Oscura would tear Anastasia’s heart out. Oscura was still in the shower, crying at over 75 decibles. As she heard Rosa’s voice more and more, she was on the verge of passing out from the three minutes she had been crying. Then Anastasia entered the bathroom with a really long towel at the ready. “Oscura, are you OK?” Anastasia said with concern in her voice. Oscura didn’t answer. The shower windows were heavily steamed up and condensated and Anastasia didn’t know if she’s was coming out not. Then, about ten seconds later, Oscura finally opened the door, looking like a absolute wreck. Anastasia was shocked to see that Oscura’s eyes were tear-ridden and that she was still sobbing. She wrapped the towel around Oscura and took her to her bedroom where she can hopefully calm her down.
Chapter 14 - Being Evil Has No LimitsView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 14 - Being Evil Has No Limits“What’s happened to you, Oscura?” Anastasia asked her as she closed Oscura’s door. “I’ve… I’ve…” Oscura wimpered. “I’ve been having awful memories of my mother again.” Anastasia was shocked by this. She thought that she left Oscura’s mind after she left. But she wrong. “It’s been absolutely plaguing for the twenty minutes. Twenty minutes of my sanity going down the fucking drain, Anastasia. Do you think that’s wrong with me.” Oscura snapped with tears. “Well I…” Anastasia stammered before she was interrupted by Oscura. “That’s what I thought!” Oscura agreed with anger. "Ever since I was in the shower, I developed a hatred with my mother. I was intially glad she left me with you, Anastasia. Including Tenebrisa for that matter, I started to flashback when I was with her. She cared for me until I became enemies witn Danger." "Do you love her still?" Anastasia asked her. "Do I fuck, Anastasia?!" Oscura snapped again. "I wanted to give Danger a swift and painful death. But every attempt leads to Danger getting stronger and more irritable. Oscura burst into tears again. She was basically Sunset Shimmer during the Anon-a-Miss saga, but worse. Anastasia sighed and got up from Oscura's bed and opened the door and see anyone is available to comfort Oscura. Luckily, Lolestra was walking along the corridor. "Hey, Lolestra. Can I ask you something" "Sure, anything for a friendly Galaxia." Lolestra replied. "It's Oscura isn't it?" "Yeah, she getting worse every minute can you help calm her down..." "Why?" Lolestra asked. But before Anastasia could reply, Oscura unleashed another 70 decibel cry of agony. "Geez, Oscura!" Anastasia exclaimed, cover her ears. Her words fell to deaf ears as Oscura's weeping turned to agony, and was once again, seeing mind-haemorrhaging images of Danger wrecking her vehicles and Rosa Galaxia. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Penthouse Suite, Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:10 While Oscura wrestled with her inner demons. Aria, Rainbow, Danger, Spitfire and Lightning were relaxing on the couch as the Dragonsfire and Lionsfire sisters were in the main entrance meeting Ceres, Ara, Meridian and Sapphiria. It wasn't the only time the main 5 squad leaders were able to relax because being at war with Oscura. "Danger, do you think I could make this so time in the future." Rainbow asked Danger handing him tablet with a hypercar on it. "Wow." Danger was amazing at what he had seen. The car Rainbow showed him was a car resembling a Lamborghini Murciélago and a Mercedes SLR McLaren at the front and a Lamborghini V12 Gran Turismo concept car at the rear. Rainbow planned to call it RD2 Prisma GTX-3750 but Danger insisted on calling in RD2 Prisma GTX-4000 as he knew Rainbow wanted to make the car go faster than his DGR15 Excelsior X. "Do you think you could that for her, Danger?" Spitfire asked. "I was going to do that this afternoon, Spitfire, thanks for reminding me about that." Danger replied. This led to a bit of shock from Rainbow. “Err, Danger. Excuse me for my Cloudsdale mouth, but you do realise I’m going to make that right?” Rainbow interjected. “However I have just the right car for you to create though.” Rainbow then swiped a few times before revealing her idea for an upcoming Danger masterpiece. The picture contained a car that resembles a mix between a Ferrari 488 Challenge EVO and Ford GT at the front. At the rear of the car, was a McLaren Speedtail with two Bugatti Veyron style cooling ducts. Also included on the rear is a GT3-style Rainbow also show Danger the engines that would be used. Two 5.7-liter V8s making 11.4-liter W16 and she decided to have two superchargers. She also thinks that the engine would produce more power than Oscura’s OSC1 Nemesis. Because of this, Danger thought Rainbow gone a bit mad, but he didn’t want to say it. Rainbow then showed Aria both the Prisma GTX-4000 and Danger’s new idea. “Both of them are brilliant, Dashie. How did you do these so brilliantly?” Aria asked her in amazement. “Danger taught me.” Rainbow replied. “Danger, you taught Rainbow how to design these cars? You are such a creative person?” Aria then asked Danger. “I don’t know if you knew this, Aria, but I’m not just a racing driver and a test driver. I’m also a car designer and mechanic.” Danger explained. “It’s also because I have degrees in both engineering, physics and computing. And… I also have an honorary doctorate in enginerring also.” “Danger, you are so smart with anything car related.” Lightning said to Danger. “Maybe you can teaching any new members that join the Legion, if you want.” Danger was intrigued by Lightning’s suggestion. “I think I’ll do that in the future, Lightning. But Aria’s booked a Formula race at the Azuradrome on the 7th October so… that might… sort of clash with my schedule slightly.” Danger said. “You could do that on the 8th, Danger, you know.” Spitfire suggested. Why do my friends always one-up me every time? Thinking that my agenda’s packed enough! Danger thought to himself. Eventually, Spitfire’s comment shut Danger up and he had to accept it. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Vehicle Bay, Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:15 Back in Oscura City, Adagio was doing some polishing in her DZLE1 Adorer. She was getting a bit annoyed with Oscura as two weeks ago, she made her forces retreat back to the headquarters as she was enraged by her soldiers’ incompetence and the Legion’s tricks. She sighed, thinking that her chances of dealing with Aria Blaze was decending into a farce. Ugh, why does she to be with Danger and the rest of friends when really, she could be with me. Adagio thought to herself as she folded the cloth. As she went to grab another can of polish as the one she used ran out, Estrella entered as she wanted to make another hypercar. Estrella had got quite fond of Adagio as she told her stories of her success in motorsport. “Hi, Adagio. I have an idea that you might be interested in.” Estrella said, wanting to divert Adagio from her usual schedule. “Oh, hi Estrella. What is it? ‘Cause I’m bored of doing jack-shit all day. I just need some variety in my life. You know what I mean?” Adagio let off a huge sigh. “Of course I do, Adagio.” Estrella replied. “You know what something different. Why not… go out for a nice drive with me to the Obisidian Mountains.” This caught Adagio’s interest a lot. “Sure! Why not.” She said as she got into her DZLE1 Adorer. “Oh by the way, do you know what my Adorer top speed is?” “No, what?” “327 miles an hour.” “Wow!” Estrella exclaimed. “You definitely built that well.” “Thanks, Estrella. Let’s go.” Adagio was definitely more relaxed. 2 seconds later, Estrella got into her EST1 Dragonhunter and the automatic garage doors opened and she and Adagio went north towards the Obsidian Mountains Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Penthouse Suite, Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:18 Meanwhile, Danger, Rainbow, Lightning, Aria and Spitfire were having still having a discussion on supercars. “Personally, I think that in order to be a true-bloodied aficionado, you need to have had a Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati or any exotic car in your life.” Aria began. “I think all of us are that status because…” She faced Danger. “What was the first Ferrari you had, Danger?” “Err… it was a 612 Scaglietti.” Danger replied. “What about Lamborghini?” “I think it was the… Murciélago Roadster, you know the LP650-4 version?” Danger replied. “Yeah. What about it?” “I think it was absoultely brilliant to drive, as well as the LP670 version.” Danger explained. “You mean the SV version, Danger?” Spitfire asked. “Exactly, Spitfire. I wish I could replicate the memories before I had the… there is a Ferrari that starts with the letter… F.” “F430?” Lightning asked Danger. “It was for definite not the F360 cause, even though it was the road-version of the 360 Challenge but the F430, I think has more character than the F360 does.” Danger replied. Aria then realised something. “Danger… you know when you said that you wanted to replicate the memories of that Murciélago you mentioned?” Aria said. “Yeah, what?” “Salvation is at hand.” Aria announced. “Because… Rarity made this for us when we decide to go on holiday to Sunside City like we did last year.” Aria then got a remote and displayed a car with resemblance to the Murciélago that Danger previously mentioned and a Fisker Karma. “What’s that masterpiece?” Danger instantly unleashed a liking to the car. “That, Danger… is called the Rarity Royaume GT. It’s got a 6.7 liter V12 developing 658 horsepower, 502 torque and will do… 217 miles an hour.” Aria explained. “I actually believe she also sent me an email with the exact car with the file name DNG10313.” “I think she has Dang-” Rainbow said before being interrupted by Crimsonia. “Danger, I’ve something to tell you.” Crimsonia said. “What is it Crim?” Danger couldn’t tell if Crimsonia had good or bad news. “I heard from Black Flame that Oscura has gone completely insane.” Crimsonia began. “Isn’t she always?” Danger jokingly said. “Danger, you don’t understand, she said to me that her irises are now permentaly blood-red. She gone complete megalomaniac… and she’s… she’s.” Crimsonia stammered.” “She’s what?” Danger asked. “She’s planning to kill her own mother!” Crimsonia exclaimed. Well I guess being a deranged, evil, psychopathic numbskull has no limitations it seems. Danger thought to himself. “Are you sure?” “Danger, from what I’ve heard, she clearly hates Rosa Estrella Galaxia as much as she hates you.” Crimsonia replied. “I’m not surprised, clearly.” Lightning Dust chimed in. “Oh, come on, Lightning, you gotta show symphanthy for Rosa!” Crimsonia complained. “Why would we, since her daughter is Danger’s nemesis.” Lightning responded. “Lightning has a point, Crimsonia.” Aria stated. “Well… I guess you’re right. But remember, there’s more to Oscura than what meets the naked eye.” Crimsonia warned the five main commanders in the Army of the Speedfreaks. “Judging from we’ve heard, Crimsy, I think we already discovered that.” Danger replied. “OK, I’ll catch you lot later, then.” Crimsonia announced. “OK, see ya, Crimsonia.” Lightning said.
Chapter 15 - A Mental SkirmishView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 15 - A Mental Skirmish“What did you think about Oscura planning to kill her own mother, Danger?” Spitfire asked Danger. “Well… it was kinda unexpected but weird at the same.” Danger replied. Spitfire scratched her head. “Why Danger, I may ask?” “Well I… “ Danger couldn’t think of an definite answer. “I can’t understand why Oscura like that.” Rainbow said. “Isn’t she always?” Lightning joked. “ I mean Danger is on her shitlist but…” “Lightning, the Legion of Speedfreaks is on her shitlist!” Aria exclaimed. “I don’t know whose side I’m on now!” Rainbow shouted out. Aria, Lightning, Sptifre and Danger looked at Rainbow in the span of about five seconds. “What?” Rainbow raised a eyebrow. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness, Oscura’s Room, Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:16 “This is getting ridiculous!” Anastasia complained as she and Lolestra’s attempts of calming was bascially a farce. “I know that you’re basically a metaphorical train wreck, Oscura. But you’re in need of some help…” Lolestra tried to offer but her words fell to deaf ears because of her mentally-destroyed cousin. “Lolestra, I’m not a metaphorical train wreck!” Oscura boomed in tears. “I’m a literal fucking train wreck!” “Ugh, she’s getting worse every second, Lolestra. Do you think we should leave her to it, I heard that the leaders in the past need a bit of time to confront their demons.” Anastasia suggested. “Have you gone mad, Anastasia?! She needs an hour at least!” Lolestra facepalmed, thinking that was on of the worst suggestions she has heard in her entire life. “We’re gonna leave to it, Oscura, you need some time to get through this… I don’t know what you hate about your mother…” Lolestra announced before being interrupted by Anastasia. “What are you saying, Lolestra, she’s also my mother and I… I actually kinda liked her.” Lolestra was shocked at what she heard from Anastasia but it was nothing comapred to what was about to come from Oscura. “HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT TO US, ANASTASIA!” Even more tears flowed down Oscura cheeks. “YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE HER, WHY DO I THINK THAT YOU LIKE HER WHEN CLEARLY, I MADE HER DEPART FOR MY FUCKING LIFE!” Anastasia’s heart thumped as she heard the voice of Oscura she didn’t to hear. “You… made her leave, because of… your nemesis.” Lolestra concluded. Silence struck Oscura. “You are correct… and I hate her for leaving me.” Oscura said. This got Lolestra’s brain to spin cycle. “I’m sorry but… why would you do this, Oscura? It’s already causing you enough pain already.” Lolestra said. “Lolestra, you forgot. The exact purpose of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness is to annihilate the Legion of Speedfreaks who will a gust of wind. But we will reap the whirlwind from within their pitiful, under-minded, wretches of the cities that even dare try destroy the overwhelming brute force of the Crimson Sun.” Lolestra and Anastasia could not bare to imagine Oscura’s personal vision for the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. She had planned to massive expand the Army of the Eternal Darkness by as much as 200 times of the power they currently yield. “The fact that some of my loyal commanders and generals are doubting my existence, makes me believe that they think I’m literally out of my fucking mind. My mother’s youngest cousin, Lucia Obsidia Galaxia, thinks I don’t. Lucia is a general by the way. I trust Lucia very … and she knows my intentions of personally killing Danger. Painfully.” Oscura’s voice turned more evil every passing second. She was no longer crying, but her eyes were badly affected by her ordeal which consisted flashbacks of her mother leaving her for good that they were now blood red, permanently. “Well I think you’re… more than normal?” Lolestra was unsure of Oscura’s new form of anger. Just before Lolestra and Anastasia exited Oscura’s room, the commander that Oscura mentioned earlier, Lucia Galaxia, was entering Oscura’s room for a status update on the Army of Eternal Darkness and some new ideas for vehicles of mass destruction. Lolestra and Anastasia both left while Oscura and Lucia both stayed in the room. A normal Alliance of Extreme Darkness officer’s uniform consists of a black full length shirt with a red blazer with the ‘OG’ armband on the left sleeve, a shiny black knee-cap length skirt, black tights, black high heels and an Oscura-style helmet as the commanders and generals in the Alliance of Extreme Darkness are all part of the Galaxia family from different parts of the world If one becomes a general, the blazer has gold stripes. As Lucia Galaxia is a general, she has the right to wear it. Lucia was also sporting a medal known as the ‘Crimson Cross’, 1st class no less. “Well, Empress Galaxia, you know that we won’t be ready to attack the Legion of Speedfreaks until the Army of Eternal Darkness is fully operational.” Lucia said. “Lucia, you can call me Oscura, you know. I really don’t care when generals ask me anything in the traditional way.” Lucia wasn’t sure what to say about Oscura’s logic. “I think you’re not going to like this.” Lucia warned Oscura This led to an eyebrow from Oscura being raised. “Pray tell.” “Well, I just heard from one my squad members that… you know that building which the Legion of Speedfreaks looted a couple of weeks ago?” Lucia began. “Yes, what?” “Apparently… it got looted again. By the following members of the Legion of Speedfreaks: Twilight Sparkle, Azura Dragonsfire… and Cayenne Pepper. “This got so ridiculous so fucking fast! Lucia, send three squads to secure that abandoned factory.” Oscura ordered. “Yes, mistress!” Lucia saluted and exited the room. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Control Room Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:24 Akula was in the main control room, trying to plot out any weak points in Oscura City when Danger entered the room, which look of confusion in his face. Akula wondering what was troubling Danger. "Danger, what troubling you, pal?" Akula asked him. "I heard something from Crimsonia about Oscura, which is... puzzling but... quite unusual for someone who is an absoulte psychopath." Danger replied. "I'm not surprised, considering it's has Oscura written all over it." Akula said, not showing empathy for Danger's nemesis. "Anyways, what's she planning." "Well, probably developing such an larger army than the one on Paradise City I flared out of existence. 15,000 no less, would be a pretty good place to start. The problem is that the exact number could be in the hundred thousands... or possibly in the millions." Danger explained. “Danger, I think it would probably take months or even years to build an army of that size.” Akula interjected. “Some of my friends would probably agree on that to.” “What do you mean?” Danger asked. “Well, Oscura City has several underground production facilites which span over 15 square miles. If we decide to go all out right now, the chances are that the heavens might get a bit too over-crowded.” Akula explained. “That means we aren’t gonna see the next sunrise.” Danger concluded. “Exactly, Danger. The fact every production facilities is owned by Oscura and they are programmed by mind-control to produce any kind of weaponry capable of destroying anything, makes you wonder why she wanted to get rid of you. Danger became puzzled. He knew that Oscura would be coming for him, but an inkling of an thought told him that the Army of Eternal Darkness isn’t ready yet. Two things worried Danger a long. One is that the Alliance of Extreme Darkness is getting stronger every second (which he already knew). Second is that before Oscura had a lapse of hell in her younger years, she acquired the use of dark matter and she was now planning on the OSC5 Imperator Tenebris Helixia. A version of the OSC5 Imperator which was powered by a mix of dark energy, dark matter and a 7117 horsepower 17.8 ICE powerplant and will go beyond 375 miles per hour. “Danger, what was it that you were going to tell before I got you sidetracked.” Akula asked Danger, trying to bring him ‘back to his surroundings’ as he kind of drifted off into the abyss. Partially because of Oscura tried to kill him during the Battle of Paradise City a few weeks back. “Oh, yeah. Sorry about that.” Danger apologised. “The part what Crimsonia mentioned to me, was that… Oscura was having a shower… and… she experienced mind-hemorrhaging flashbacks of her mother, Rosa Estrella Galaxia and her voice turned into a half vampiric, half demonic mixture and... she planning to kill her mother in an attempt to eradicate any hope of tranquillity within her. "Geez, Danger. You used to believe that Grogar was the most evil entity in this universe, but now, it's actually your own nemesis." This caused Danger to go into a mind battle and at least 3 possible scenarios began to collide with each other, all relating to Oscura. "Danger, if you need someome, preferably one of your many friends or... I know someone who can help with your dealing with." Akula told Danger. "Who?" Danger became interested. "You'll see... soon." Akula told him.
Chapter 16 - A Game of HypercarsView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 16 - A Game of HypercarsA thought occurred to Danger as to what Akula said before. Would it be a long time friend of Akula, or someone that's gonna be like Oscura, but more of 'not willing to kill Danger constantly' which is something that wished for about eleven years. As Danger was making more car files for his personal blueprint hard drive. Rainbow entered the room and was holding one of the hard drives that Danger, Black Flame brought back from the abandoned factory. "Hi Danger, I was wondering. I'm thinking of creating that car I showed you earlier.” “What the Prisma GTX-4000?” “Yeah, do you think I could create a version for you?” Rainbow asked Danger. Danger thought for a second. “Sure, why not.” “That’s Danger I know!” Rainbow patted on Danger’s shoulder. Then in about 20 seconds, Rainbow cloned the file of the RBD2 Prisma and sent it into Danger’s vehicle hard drive. Danger then showed Rainbow one of the cars that he and Akula managed to steal from the abandoned factory a few weeks ago, the OSC1 Nemesis. Rainbow looked at the OSC1 Nemesis and a look of satisfaction came from the face of Rainbow. “Are you planning to make that, you do know your nemesis made that originally.” Rainbow asked. “Rainbow, I’m more aware of that like… since 2010. But I will concede that, even though she is our enemy, she does make literal masterpieces of vehicles.” Danger replied. “Are you saying that Oscura makes better cars than you?” Rainbow then asked. “No, Rainbow.” Danger shook his head. “They’re something I try to learn from, but it cullimated that the Legion being in an arms race with me creating better cars than her.” Rainbow then realised, she hadn’t seen Twilight as of recently. “Danger, where’s Twilight?” “I think she’s with Cayenne and Azura and she’s planning on finding a similar outfit to what Oscura wears. I told that there a lot more hard drives and memory so… I told her to pillage the remnants of the cargo that me and Akula looted a few weeks back.” Danger explained. “I also told her to go into the different floors. Because Akula and I didn’t check as the superstructre of the factory would cave in.” Danger explained. “And? Rainbow asked. “So last week, I sent the BRSU to deploy a force field around the factory which would effectively reduce any attempt of the superstructre disintergrating on itself. And er… Twilight asked me if she could… loot some clothing, the same clothing that Oscura wears.” Danger then suddenly realised what came out of his mouth in about ten. Rainbow facepalmed. “What did you say to her about that?” Danger asked. Danger thought for a second. “I said to her, go for it, I don’t really mind.” Rainbow wasn’t convinced at all. “Danger, remember at Nightmare Night, four years ago. Twilight wore a similar outfit to the one that Oscura wore. She literally threw you off.” She reminded Danger. “Yeah, but, it didn’t hinder me that much after about… 24 hours had elasped, you know.” Danger commented. “Besides, it’s not like she’s gonna confuse me again, is she? I’ve known her since me and you became friends.” “I know that, Danger, but I…” Rainbow wanted to protest but was interrupt by a transmission from Twilight. “Danger, can you read me.” Twilight asked. “Yes, I can, Twilight. What’s the nibbles.” Danger replied. “About… twenty miles from where we are now, it seems the Alliance has sent scout unit to try and intercept our loot.” Twilight explained. Oscura. Rainbow to herself. “That’s were you’re wrong, Twi.” Danger said as he had another ace in the hole Because the force field has the repulsive sensors that if any Alliance car gets anywhere within a 15-mile radius, the vehicle would be teleported back to Oscura City. Oh, I forgot to mention, the vehicles explode after 5 seconds has elapsed from being teleported back. So you don’t need to worry.” Danger then explained. “OK, Danger, I believe you.” Twilight concluded. “Anyway, I found an even bigger stash of boxes containing memory sticks and hard drives.” Danger thought to himself it wasn’t a competition of who can find the most memory sticks and/or hard drives. Especially since Danger and Oscura were at war with each other. “Brilliant, Twilight…” Before he could continue. Twilight interrupted him. “And… I found the exact same outfit that Oscura wears.” Twilight announced. Oh, for Celestia’s sake. Danger thought to himself. Having two people wearing the exact same full back leather suit with fingerless gloves and cyberpunk-style boots, is probably enough to make me think what the hell is going on the Legion of Speedfreaks as of recently. “OK, Twilight. Can you teleport back to HQ if you don’t mind.” Danger then asked. “With the boxes of memory stored… and the outfit that I found eariler.” “Sure.” Danger sarcastically said. “Oh by the way, how many boxes have you found?” “About 100, why?” “It cause the more files we have at our disposal, the more of a chance we have at ending this slug-fest that this battle. Also I want to see you in the outfit you found.” Danger replied. Rainbow facepalmed again, thinking that this going to be a long day. “OK, Danger, I will see you later.” Twilight then announced. “Likewise, Twi.” The call ended with Rainbow being mythed. “Danger, has you brain suddenly to download the 1,01 patch of ‘being a total dullard’ Rainbow asked him. “No, it’s still on the beta build.” Danger said, logging in his personal vehicle database. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Penthouse Suite, Thursday 10th June 2021, 11:40 While Danger and Rainbow were sending all of the files to main drive. Twilight was talking to Aria and Crimsonia on the couch. Twilight was now wearing the same outfit that Oscura wears, hoping to throw Danger into a mind-break. “Hey, Crimsonia, you know my car, the TWI4 Andromeda?” Twilight said. “Yeah, what about it?” “Well, it turns out that Danger did this for me.” Twilight showed Crimsonia a picture of an upgrading version of the TWI4 Andromeda which consisted a widebody and a Le Mans-style wing. The TWI4 Andromeda resembles a Porsche 918 and a Ferrari Enzo with a 14.5l V18 engine developing 3,198 horsepower. Flat out, the top speed is 348mph, “That… is called the TWI4 Andromeda X. Basically, the X produces 260 horsepower than the standard Andromeda and I reckon that the top speed is 375mph.” Twilight explained which to a whistle from Aria. “The thing I like about… generally all cars we cars are built for the following things: speed, enjoyment and luxury, aren’t they?” Crimsonia said. “Exactly, Crim. That’s why I’m not just the Princess of Friendship, I… am the Princess of Speed.” “Are you now?” Aria asked. “You never told us that beforehand.” Twilight was a bit surprised about that. “I wanted to keep that as a surprise. Something I wanted to keep secret until after the Battle of Paradise City.” She said while polishing her new helmet (which was originally Oscura’s). “I’m gonna see what Danger’s up to.” Aria then announced. “OK, no problem, Aria.” Twilight said. After Aria exited the room, Crimsonia got up and sat next to Twilight. Twilight, who previously was relaxing on the couch, made room for Crimsonia. “Twilight, let me get this straight.” Crimsonia began. “You’re wearing an exact outfit that Oscura is wearing, doesn’t that make you… part of the Alliance. “No, Crimsonia.” Twilight disagreed. “I’m better than Oscura and all her friends and her family. I wanted to wear outfit since Danger told me of Oscura’s existence. At first, I didn’t know that Oscura existed. I originally thought is would be a character from an old fantasy novel. I’m a bit of addict to books myself.” Twilight gave a nervous chuckle which led to Crimsonia giving Twilight a pat on the back. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Vehicle Production Room, Thursday 10th June 11:45 While Twilight and Crimsonia were having fun each other, Midnight Skies was with Lightning Dust and Spitfire. Midnight Skies needed a new vehicle as the vehicle she used during the Battle of Paradise City, the Jansen X12, was basically just scrap metal. She asked Lightning Dust to work with her to build a hypercar, preferably one can withstand the speed of Oscura’s army. Having heard of the existence of the OSC5 Imperator Tenebris Helixia from Danger two hours ago. She knew that if she would be captured by Oscura, she would become her slave and plague her mindset to hate Rainbow again. She knew that she can’t let that happen, because she’s now a Speedfreak Legionnaire and with the most popular person in the world, DangerDean. “OK, Midnight Skies, what would the car to be like?” Lightning asked her. “Erm… I think a Bentley Speed 8 from the front with Devel Sixteen styling. For the rear of the car, I think the Toyota GR010 with Lamborghini Terzo styling.” Midnight replied. Lightning’s eyebrows were raised, she knew she’d be determined to eliminate Oscura. “What type of engine would you like?” Lightning then asked “Probably W16.” Lightning typed on the touch screen Midnight’s requirements. “How many liters?” This is got Midnight thinking. “11.5.” “Anything else?” “Probably an electric motor, probably the same one that’s in Rainbow’s RBD1. After 10 seconds, the results were in Midnight’s new car would develop 3,275hp and estimated the top speed to be 360 mph. She thought to herself, Oscura, I’m coming for ya.
Chapter 17 - A Battle of Hypercars (Part 1 - Before the Duel)View OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 17 - A Battle of Hypercars (Part 1 - Before the Duel)While Lightning Dust and Midnight Skies were waiting for the vehicle to be built, Danger and Rainbow were sending vehicles they created their personal production bay, Danger planned on building his own upgraded version of the OSC1 Nemesis, he managed to somehow get the 15-liter twin-supercharged V12 to extract 6425 hp and 4000 lb/ft torque and somehow managed to get a top speed of 396 mph, he wasn’t sure how he did it either. Maybe it’s because of years of car designing experience which might have culminated into Danger building better hypercars than Oscura. At least he claims. But Danger would probably get some more relaxation as Twilight (in her infinite wisdom) decided to challenge Rainbow and Danger to a challenge at one of her own tracks, the Circuit of Stars, 360 miles south of Danger City. So Danger, being Danger, had accepted the challenge invite thinking that she’s better than Oscura. If it was Oscura who challenged him, it would probably involve, either Danger getting his Excelsior wiped off the face of the earth or Oscura crashing out on the lap of the race (which was common in her racing career). It also helped Danger that he actually sent the car to the large 3D printer as soon as he accepted the challenge offer Twilight made previously. He called it the DGPR1 Mithrilfire X. For no reason. Rainbow planned to test the RBD2 Prisma as well, so it was good for her too. Then, 2 minutes later, Twilight entered the room. “Hi, Danger.” Twilight greeted. Danger was, for some reason, was lost in what he was going to say, so had Rainbow for that manner. Danger could see that something was wrong with Twilight, but he didn’t want a finger on it. “Hi, Twilight?” Danger replied in total confusion, his mind suddenly exploded by the fact that Twilight was now wearing the exact same outfit that Oscura wears. But he tried his utmost best to avoid thinking that Twilight was a member of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. Rainbow was the same, any word she was going to say would have involved Oscura and the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. “Rainbow Dash, you’re sweating profusely.” Twilight observed Rainbow. “I was trying to not say anything about your outfit being material of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, but I was a bit worried that I’m gonna jinx that by saying it, and my plan to keeping my words to myself would have also fell flat on it’s arse.” Rainbow explained why. “You’re doing well so far, Dashie-girl.” Danger said in encouragement. Twilight knew that Danger and Rainbow have been friends a long time and she kind of became Danger’s icon. But Twilight didn’t realise that she has been Danger’s friend less than Rainbow has, but she didn’t want to say anything. She was only concentrating on her upcoming duel with Danger and Rainbow. “Anyways, Danger, are you ready for your lap time to be blown out of the way by MY masterful driving?” Twilight announced to Danger. Danger thought that woulf be something Oscura would say to taunt him. But this was Twilight saying this to him, so he would be a bit more relaxed towards the future. He also thought that this would be a chance to test the Milthrilfire X. But as soon he could speak a word. The Mithrilfire X was ready for him. Including Rainbow’s RBD2 Prisma was completed about twenty seconds later. “Twilight, I’m ready to meet whatever you have planned.” Danger replied to Twilight’s eariler announcement. “Good, Danger.” Twilight. You really are the most confident person I’ve met in my time with the Legion of Speedfreaks and… possibly of all my most important friends, you, Rainbow, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie, Sunset, Starlight. But you, Danger…” Twilight became a bit emotional as her right hand which was in a fingerless glove (again similar to Oscura’s) reached towards Danger’s left shoulder. “You will always from the bottom of my heart that you will…” She was interrupted by Rainbow. “Err… Twilight, are you trying to steal Danger from me?” Twilight quietly gasped as her hand let go of Danger, realising that Rainbow had something planned with Danger in the future which she kept in total secret. “It’s alright, Twilight.” Danger said, but he wanted to get to the bottom of something. “I have a couple of things I want to get off my chest. Firstly, I now that all of your friends share the same respect as my friends do. Blazey, Sparky, Crimsonia, Azura, Black Flame would agree entirely, even Akula for that matter. Secondly, I haven’t see Rarity, Pinkie or Fluttershy as of recently and I wonder where they might be, cause erm… I have something special for all three of them.” “I think Rarity has probably got the same outfit that Oscura wears and she kind of gave it a colourful artwork to it.” Twilight replied. Oh, not another of the same team. Rainbow thought to herself in disgust. “Really, I thought she would be preoccupied with the Danger City branch of Carosuel Boutique.” Danger said, giving his thinking pose.” “I think she’s probably trying increase her sales in this city, but her nemesis, Diamond Rush, never in her whole life went into one of the stores.” Twilight said. “When was that, I must have been in a motorsport race.” Danger scratched his head. “Probably when she started the Danger City branch.” Twilight replied. Danger wanted to get to the bottom of the Fluttershy problem. From he remembered in Paradise City, he only saw her once and she wasn’t in the Battle because from what Aria told him is that Fluttershy is afraid of Oscura and that one of Oscura’s subjects was Fluttershy’s evil doppelganger, Shadow Wings, hates her too. “I don’t where Fluttershy is though, but my chance to find her will have to be put on hold as I’ve got this contest at the Circuit of the Stars, haven’t I?” Twilight said. “You have, Twilight.” Danger replied. “Are we heading off soon, cause the TWI4 Andromeda X is ready.” Rainbow asked out of room. Twilight realised that Rainbow was getting impatient. “OK, but I recommend stopping for the night at the Stratosphere Resort which is about… 50 miles from the Circuit of the Stars after we done duelling.” Twilight suggested. “I’ve already book the rooms and I’ve told everyone that we maybe be back tommorrow. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Suite, Thursday 10th June, 12:05 While Danger, Rainbow and Twilight were on the move towards the Circuit of the Stars. An absoulety exhausted Lolestra was talking to her sister: Kanalinda Tenebris, her two daughters: Avaria Aurora Maledicta who is the oldest and Mythea Galexia Maledicta who is the youngest and her two cousins: Alaya Nightbane and Galasara Darkheart. All of which are Alliance members. “You know, Alaya, I think I’ve seen something from one of my acquietence, Oscura, which is… I never seen her so… mentally distraught in my whole life.” Lolestra said to her youngest cousin. Galasara, who is Lolestra’s oldest cousin by about 5 months, was in shock as to what Lolestra said about Oscura. “I wouldn’t be surprised as she is the Empress of Darkness. I originally thought Sombra was more evil than her.” Alaya said as before she met Oscura, she encountered Sombra. Four times. “Alaya… Sombra is no match for the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, even if he did join the bastards that is the Legion of Speedfreaks.” Lolestra said which drew the attention of Avaria. “Sombra…” Avaria thought. “is he like… banished into the mountains or something?” “That’s we thought, Avaria, but he is somewhere out there, beyond Oscura City… causing as much mind-control as possible… Until the Army of Extreme Darkness is complete… we will be the true darkness." Lolestra said, gazing out of the window.
Chapter 18 - A Battle of Hypercars (Part 2 - The Duel)View OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 18 - A Battle of Hypercars (Part 2 - The Duel)Avaria had a spell of fear as she heard what came out of Lolestra’s mouth. It seems, to her at least, that the Alliance is dealing to two enemies at the same time. One being the Legion of Speedfreaks, which was completely obvious, the other was probably Sombra. But Sombra isn’t much of a threat to the Alliance of Extreme, at least for now that is. But time would play it’s own hand in the never-ending card game, but the cards weren’t drawn yet. It’s because the deck (containing hypercars) was constantly being shuffled. Galasara noticed that Lolestra was looking like when Midnight Skies came out of her ordeal with the Alliance after being reformed by Danger. “You okay, Lolestra? You seem a bit on edge, that’s something I don’t want to see from my cousin.” Galasara said, voicing concern over Lolestra. “On edge? Pfft! I’ve always being on edge!” Lolestra scoffed. “In fact, I’m so on fucking edge, that if I sat on a chair, my butt wouldn’t made any contact with said chair!” I’m glad that Miss Galaxia doesn’t have children. Mythea thought to herself. White Crystal Highway Service Station, I84A, 250 miles from the Circuit of the Stars, Thursday 10th July 2021, 14:32 While Lolestra was close to venting steam, Danger, Rainbow and Twilight were at a fuel station, because… guess who’s car drank the most. “Why didn’t you make it hybrid, Danger?” Rainbow asked Danger. “And… we’ve done 110 miles, we’re probably gonna stop about 3 times because of your near-400 mph gas haemorrager.” “First reason, I thought I’d fancy a bit of a change from going 0-60 in about… now.” Danger explained as he was filling his Mithrilfire. “I’m doing an experiment on how many miles to the gallon this car does.” As Danger was speaking, the Mithrilfire’s tank was now full. And Danger got out his began his calcuations. “So Dashie, we’ve done… 110 miles, according to my trip and I put 48.59 litres in the tank and I’m gonna convert that from Euro-metric into Imperial by divding that… by… 4.546 which is… 24.19 gallons. And… 110 divide by 24.19 is… 4.5 miles to the gallon.” Danger explained. “Wow, I’m right with I said there.” Rainbow concluded. “But you could have chosen your Excelsior X though.” “But, Rainbow, the Excelsior X, when it’s on MegaSport+ does 320 mph, this does 396. Also the HYX version of the Excelsior does 326. But I got one fuel station further than my Excelsior X, even though it’s got a bigger tank.” “That’s a lot of information I didn’t think I’d need, but… you’re quite brilliant when it comes to cars.” Inside the shop however, Twilight had a few bones to pick. “Why would Oscura build some a big to rid of only one person, I think that a bit overkill, don’t you think, Danger?” Twilight asked him. “Twilight, it’s not just me she’s up against. She’s up against the whole of the Legion.” Danger said. “We’re basically in a standoff with Oscura, but I think we shouldn’t worry over her now though, but we are in a duel in about… 250 miles.” “It’s not like’s she after us now, is she?” Rainbow stated. “Rainbow, you do know that Oscura hates us. The fact that she’s giving grief doesn’t help with the fact that… for the past two weeks we’ve been sabotaging Oscura’s intel.” Twilight said. Danger was thinking of the layout of the Circuit of the Stars and the places where the Mithrilfire would excel at. Then, after four seconds had past, he was spotted by a crowd of die-hard DangerDean fans. Danger, knowing he wouldn’t want to disappoint his fans, got up and left Rainbow and Twilight to it. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Vehicle Production Base, Thursday 10th June 2021, 15:00 While Danger was becoming a commodity with people was chasing his signature, Aria was looking on the car database for ideas for her new car, the AB2 Motionblaze. She plans to make the Motionblaze a hybrid and run on an internal combustion engine. After Danger told Aria that he was having a duel with Rainbow and Twilight, she thought she’d treat Danger to a really nice car when he got back. She created a car with Raser Tachyon, Saleen S1 and Ginetta Akula styling, a near 3400 horsepower 9.2 liter, twin-supercharged W16 at the middle and a top speed of 402 miles per hour. The car was called the DGR21 Iskur X. She also planned to make the DGR17 Vigilante, the DGR18 Skuriken (which was named after one of attack group at Paradise City), the DGR19 Elixirfire and the DGR20 Stormweaver as well, but she wouldn’t tell him that part as it would be a surprise to him. She decided to have the Motionblaze styling to be reminiscent of a Mercedes-AMG GT3 (the 2020 version) a 992 series Porsche 911, a Porsche 911 GT1 Strassenversion and the Apollo Intensa Emozione. While she was doing that she also made her own Ferrari as she is a Ferrari fan herself. While she didn’t tell Danger this, it was completely obvious to him. She decided to base her new Ferrari off a 488 GTB, a P4/5 which was designed by Pinninfarina. Also, fun fact: Danger’s SF90 Stradale was originally called a Pinninfarina Battista Also in the production base was Crimsonia, she was making the CRD2 Crimsonblitz, a car with resemblance to an Aston Martin Valkyrie at the front, a Lamborghini Sesto Elemento on the sides and a Pagani Huayra at the rear with a Le Mans-style rear wing. Powering the CRD2 Crimsonblitz is the same engine used in Danger’s DGR15 Excelsior HYX, the hybrid version of the Excelsior. The Crimsonblitz wasn’t a hybrid, but will be a 396 mph rocket ship. She also planned to give one to Azura under the name of AZD2 Azureblitz. But as she sent the car to the printer, a girl appeared who looked like Rainbow Dash in natural colour with teal hair in Aria’s style and with cyan eyes. She was wearing a teal t-shirt with a fireball and a ouroboros with lightning bolts on it’s body. Her lower garments are the same as Black Flame’s. But was wearing the same style boots Aria wore before the Battle of the Bands in teal and red. She was also wearing basketball-style arm sleeves, not because help her with not getting her arms tired, but as a accessory. Her name was Hatsune Soulblitz. She was originally from Crystal City before moving to Danger City in 2003 with her two sisters, Rin Powershock who is the youngest and Luka Arcanelight who is about 3 years and 4 months older than her. She, like her sisters, is also a racing driver and Danger was her inspiration, but also someone who raced against Danger back in 2005 at the Equestrian GT Championship. Aria noticed Hatsune walking passed her with Luka and Rin following each other after Hatsune entered and were heading for Crimsonia. Rin Powerblitz has a Fluttershy-esque natural colour with yellow hair and red highlights and has yellow eyes with light-ish red eyeshadows. She was wearing a yellow knee-length dress with a symbol consisted of a sun and lightning forming a circle around the sun. She was also tights coloured black and white and wearing Aria-style boots which reached to the bottom of her knee caps. Luka Arcanelight has a Twilight-esque natural colour with pink hair and light red, white and purple hair in the style of Sonata’s. She also has golden-yellow eyes with pink eyeshadows. She was wearing a long-sleeved shirt in dark purple with a imprint of a including a leather jacket over it. Her lower garments are denim jeans. She was also wearing the same style of boots Sunset wore during the Battle of the Bands but ankle length. “Hatsune, this is Aria Blaze…” Luka said before being interrupted by Aria. “Yes I know, Luka. Me and Hatsune are long friends.” Aria said, shaking hands with Hatsune, “OK, Aria, I think you know why we are here?” Hatsune began. “Why’s that?” Aria had no clue but she had a feeling it might be related to Oscura. “I heard from an outside source that… Oscura is planning to make a machine that will make the entire planet dark tomorrow… and planning to make it rain perpetually and a eternal blood-red solar eclipse will illuminate. When that happens Aria, there will be no escape from the clutches of the darkness, there will be no such thing as a glimmer of sanity, there will be pain, death, agony, torture and humiliation, to please Oscura Galaxia, the Empress of the Darkness, the Mistress of Oscura City. There will be… no hope under the crimson sun, but the crimson sun will fall. One day, storm clouds may consume us all, but we, the Legion of Speedfreaks… we be the bullet that will pierce her heart and her body will crash to the ground.” Aria was shocked at what Hatsune said. She was more worried over the fact that the crimson sun was Oscura’s plan to give the Legion of Speedfreaks a wound it could never heal from. Circuit of the Stars, Pit Lane Thursday 10th June 2021, 19:30 While Aria was being traumatized, Danger, Rainbow and Twilight had arrived on Twilight’s personal tracks, the Circuit of the Stars. A 3.28 mile piece of Italian-style track that looked like it crash-landed in the middle of Danger’s world. But that didn’t stop Twilight from putting her TWI4 Andromeda X on the start line. She also had a goal up her sleeve, to beat her lap record, which stood at 1:27.190. She also knew the bus-stop chicane and the double chicane after turn 10 would slow her down. But she was determined to shave a couple of seconds. Then, a montage of 3,400 horsepower and Twilight began the line without any wheelspin. She approached the slalom of turn 1-3, clocking over 170mph. Then she headed for turn 4, a difficult left hander with a tendency to cause chaos. But Twilight didn’t falter and headed for the 180° turn 5 and the right 90° of turn 6. She then blasted through the straight, clocking at 250 mph in the space of 13 seconds. Then came the bus-stop, Twilight slowed down in order to take the corner as she wouldn’t have slowed down if she was in her F1 car. Next up the banked turn at turn 10 and the double chicane of turns 11 to 14. After nearly tank-slapping, her time… was 1:27.998. She then did a U-turn and headed to the pits. Next up, was Rainbow’s RBD2 Pulsar GTX-4000. The 3,892 horsepower circus from the 12.75 litre twin-turbocharged V12 began as Rainbow sped towards the slalom. Unlike the Andromeda X, the Pulsar was a bit of a handful, because having in excess of a 400 horsepower could lead to problems, but having nearly tank-slapped twice in the same style Danger did when he dueled with Akula. Her time was 1:30.090. Then it was the turn of the Danger’s Mithrilfire, the fastest car of the three and the only one not being a hybrid, but having two fuel stops and about a million signature from his fans, he felt confident that with the experience he had at the circuit, he would be at least a few seconds ahead of Twilight’s record. On his lap, he managed to keep the under control despite causing two of the garages to fill up with tyre smoke, which was completely accidental, to him at least. Luckily for Danger, the Mithrilfire didn’t tank-slap as much as Rainbow did. When Danger crossed the line, Twilight was in shock. His lap time was 1:27.090!
Chapter 19 - There is No Hope Under the Crimson SunView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 19 - There is No Hope Under the Crimson SunWhen Danger got out of his car, Twilight was a little shocked at the fact Danger managed to beat her lap record of 1:27.190 and Danger’s lap time was a full tenth faster. Rainbow decided to tell him the news, but before she reached the Mithrilfire, Danger’s phone rang. It was Aria. “Hi, Aria.” “Danger, I didn’t want to tell you this beforehand ‘cause I know you were busy with your contest, but… how did you do actually?” Aria said. “Erm… Twilight’s lap record was a 1:27.190, and I set a 1:27.090.” Danger replied. “That was brilliant, Danger.” Aria congratulated him. “Anyways, I’m gonna put Hatsune on, she wants to talk to you.” “No problems, Aria.” Danger said and waited for Hatsune. “Danger, I heard from an outside source that… Oscura is planning to turn the sky blood red tommorrow. Which means that it will spell doom for the Legion of Speedfreaks. If we don’t stop whatever the Alliance is planning, the entire world will bow to Oscura, the sky will turn into an almost permanent night with a solar eclipse… giving a symphony of evil. She will make us all slaves to the Empress of Darkness.” Hatsune explained. “So when are you three coming back?” “Probably tommorrow, probably because Twilight suggested that she, Rainbow and I would stay in the Stratosphere Resort for the night.” Danger told Hatsune. This brought concern to Hatsune. “Look, Danger. I don’t know whatever machine the Alliance may have at their disposal, but no of us known beforehand of what Oscura is planning, except for me, Rin, Luka, Aria, and Crimsonia, that is.” Hatsune said. But Danger wasn’t buying any concern Hatsune at all. “I think we will probably notice.” Danger said. “OK, then see you tommorow.” “OK, bye.” Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Lounge, Thursday 10th July, 2021, 19:40 While Danger, Twilight and Rainbow were heading for the Stratosphere Resort, completely under that illusion that Oscura was going to turn the sky blood red, which to Danger seems to be a million IQ move. Oscura, herself was wandering around the room with no one in the room other than herself, weighing the risk of extreme weather manipulation. Was turning the sky red not enough? Was the idea of creating a permanent crimson solar eclipse another façade to her plans of ending the Legion. She knew that most of the Alliance members were starting to act like a goat dancing around an open fire. But Oscura was adamant to not make that happen. But then, Oscura’s soiloquy about her plans for Danger upcoming demise was shattered when Lolestra entered the room. This shocked Oscura, which is something you wouldn’t expect from someone who is the most powerful human in Oscura City. “Oh sorry, Oscura, I didn’t expect you to be here but…” Lolestra apologised but was interrupted Oscura midway through Lolestra’s apology. “There’s no need to be sorry.” Oscura said as a shiver surged down her spine. “Empathy and remorse is Speedfreak quality. It has no meaning to someone fueled by darkness. The light that may blind you has blotted out by upcoming solar eclipse. The sky will turn red, tomorrow.” Lolestra was mythed to hear what that came out of Oscura’s mouth. “Oscura, you don’t need turn the sky red cause… the world will see you as a demon, someone who doesn’t give a shit about empathy, remorse.” Lolestra said. “I’m the Empress of Darkness, Lolestra. I can do whatever the fuck I want!” Oscura said, folding her arms. “That’s the tragedy of it all, Oscura. Your actions can cause some dire consequences sometimes.” Lolestra warned her. “If countless lives will scatter from existence thanks your lust for dominace and your revenge on Danger.” Oscura didn’t take heed to Lolestra’s warning. Especially since she has another member in the form of Zephyr Galaxia, although her real name was Chandra Doomblade, she adopted the name Zephyr Galaxia as it was more fitting for her warrior personality. Oscura was gazing at the sunset from the window, she wanted Lolestra to see Zephyr as she was up for the idea of Oscura changing the sky to a colour she was familiar with. “Lolestra, I’m aware that what we are about to achieve will lead to pain, annihilation, death and the fear of humanity no longer.” Oscura said. “I know I got the patience like a time bomb, but that’s what sets me apart from the bastard that is Dean and his cronies.” This didn’t answer Lolestra’s warning. “Do you really want to risk it?” Lolestra then asked her. “After all, I have a Galaxia blood, which means I should support your deeds. But… I think you’ve gone completely insane.” Oscura rolled her eyes and crashed on a couch. “I HAVE TO!” She shouted. “I put so much effort, blood, sweat and tears to create hypercars to overshadow Danger, but it doesn’t matter how fast our vehicles. They fucking outsmart us! ALWAYS!” Then, as Oscura clasped her helmet, nearly taking it off. Both Lucia and Zephyr entered the room. Zephyr’s light grey natural was shining on the lights and she was looking firece. Her hair was half red and a slightlydarker red. Her right eye was covered by an eye patch, however her left eye wasn’t human. It was cybernetic with red lighting. She also had a red lightning bolt-styled scar with her cybernetic eye seperating it. She was also wearing the same outfit as Oscura’s but the difference is that Zephyr’s outfit has red lightning bolts that glow in the dark. Zephyr is an experienced racer and a warrior. She has a punch which can extremely deform anything she touches, if her power has reached it’s potential Oscura didn’t realise that Zephyr was part-cyborg and is, for the lack of a better word… a human weapon. Neither did Lolestra for that matter. “You must be Oscura Galaxia, I assume?” Zephyr said, looking at the Empress of Darkness. “I think you mean Empress Oscura Galaxia.” Oscura said, in a rude tone. Zephyr looked at Lucia as to her rising confusion. “Oscura, please show respect to our new members.” Lucia said. You’re not the fucking boss of me, Lucia! Oscura thought, angrily. Lucia then felt a shiver down her spine as she heard Oscura’s silent growl. “Lucia, don’t feel intimidated by Oscura’s voice, it will only make you stronger, one day, I promise.” Zephyr said. “It won’t.” Oscura protested. “It will make your personal fighting ability weaker.” Zephyr gave Oscura a death glare as her cybernetic iris became shorter. “You don’t believe me, do you Oscura?” Zephyr said. “I never do.” Oscura replied, angrily. “That’s what I thought.” Zephyr concluded. “A true warrior must a true understanding what he or she’s truly are. They should have a purpose to fight. If I have offspring, I would train them to be like me.” “Give me strength.” Oscura said, under her breath. Lucia walked to Oscura who was took off her helmet which fell to the floor. “Zephyr, why did you mentally destroy Oscura?” Lolestra asked her. “I didn’t try to. I only tried to make her stronger, I mean… she is an empress, after all.” Zephyr replied. “I heard that she has a foe that’s been mentally annihilated right to the core.” “That’s easy for you to fucking say, Zephyr!” Oscura spat out, not trying to remedy the situation, whatsoever. “Yes that’s right.” Lolestra replied to what was on Zephyr’s mind. “His name is DangerDean. Known as British Speedfreak. “Danger? I faced him before, at the sky city of Celestia Borealis. He caused me to have this!” Zephyr spat out, pointing at her cybernetic left eye. “That explains the lightning bolt-shaped scar on your left side of your face.” Lolestra said. “That’s from when he punched me on the side of my head and I fell six feet into a stack of empty energy cells.” Zephyr said. “That would also explain the eye patch.” After about 3 seconds, Lolestra directed Zephyr to the main garage where her hypercar was waiting for her. But before this. Lucia told Oscura to head to the main control room, where… she would activate the button, which will cause the sky to turn blood red, Which would create a permanent red-glowing solar eclipse. “OK, Oscura… you may press when ready,” Oscura pressed the button and within seconds a red beam was fired creating a cloud so big, it covered the entire planet. The first to see this was Aria, who suddenly looked at the window. “Oh my goddesses!” Aria said and got out her phone and immediately called Danger. I84B, 20 miles from the Stratosphere Resort, Thursday 10th July 2021, 19:48 Danger was relaxing in his Mithrilfire when he noticed that the cloud was gone, reveal a cloudless blood red sky. “Danger, can you hear me?” Aria’s voice came from Danger’s radio. “Yes, and I see the red sky!” Danger replied. “Oh, you already know.” Aria said. “OK, be warned that something may happen in the future.” “We’ll be ready for what may throw at us.” Danger said. Danger put down his radio and thought about what Hatsune said to Aria. ‘There will be… no hope under the crimson sun.’
Chapter 20 - Terminal VelocityView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 20 - Terminal VelocityOh jeez. Danger thought, I thought she wasn’t going to do that. But, now… reality now feels like a knife stabbing me in the heart repetitively. She really wants me gone now. Danger wiped his brow as sweat was pouring down, over the possibility of who will survive in the matter of a few days. The Legion of Speedfreaks… or the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. Rainbow had an inkling that he really didn’t Oscura to turn thrsky red and that she thought that it was a pipe dream. But some pipe dreams could turn into reality and Rainbow was aware of this, so was Twilight. Twilight knew that the red sky would be permanent, unless the machine had an ‘undo’ switch. But it was too late to be messing with Oscura’s plans. After about 25 minutes of driving, the three arrived at the Stratosphere Resort. Danger exhaled as he could get some rest from the shock of seeing the Crimson Sun. He knew for definite, that the Crimson Sun will fall. Then as Rainbow and Twilight got out their luggage, Danger’s phone rang. It wasn’t from either Akula or Aria. But someone that Akula said to him a couple of hours ago which was still a mystery to Danger. “Hello.” “Hi, Danger, how are things going?” The female sounding voice said. “Well, I just beaten a record set by Twilight and I’m currently at the Stratosphere Resort.” Danger replied. “Wow, that’s what you needed after about an excess of 400 mile drive. Also I noticed that the sky’s not like Prussian-style blue. Why’s that?” “That’s Oscura being Oscura.” Danger said. “I have a feeling that there isn’t gonna be an off-switch. From I’ve heard from Twilight that this… whatever eclipse Oscura brewed out. It will never stay that way.” “I should hope so, Danger. OK, I’ll let you get on and I request that you see me at the entrance to Tunnel 922N tomorrow. There is a gate when you go south-bound, it’s on your left.” “OK, then, see ya then.” Danger said. “OK, Dean. Oh, by the way, I think I’ve been contacted by Akula that you need help with Oscura.” “Really?” “That’s right, Dean. I think you need an extra hand. At Tunnel 922N by the way, if you see a red-blue and orange Ferrari 488 Pista with a double V insignia on the front, that’s mine.” “OK, then. See ya.” Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Penthouse Suite, Thursday 10th July, 2021, 19:50 While Danger prepared for the night, Aria was sitting on the couch, looking out towards the blood red sky. She wasn’t liking the fact that Oscura went through a insurmountable amount of paranoia and breakdowns to cause the world to be occasionly on fire. She put her hands on her face, completely disgusted with Oscura’s actions. She hoped that the Vehicle War would end and Oscura behind a lock and key… or preferably dead. Then 3 seconds later, a girl by the name of Rusalka Swordlight entered the room. Rusalka Swordlight was originally from Dusk City but moved to Danger City to start her long racing career. Her natural colour was a plum colour but with a grey tint. Her hair was similar to Pinkie’s before see saw the rainbow that made her hair become fluffed. She was wearing similar t-shirt similar to Danger’s but the logo on Rusalka’s was a sun and sword tilted at a 45-degree angle, she was also wearing a black leather jacket, a similar skirt to Rarity’s but was a blend of pink and purple. She was also wearing Oscura-style boots. “Aria, why are looking you’re contemplating the inner doom of it all.” Rusalka asked her. “I knew for definite that Oscura would done something out-right stupid.” “I don’t know, Rusalka, it’s just with Danger like 300 plus miles away and I heard that Akula asked someone to meet Danger. I don’t know who it is, but I think it could be a trap. I’m sure of it.” Aria replied. “Aria, I think it’s someone called Viral Velocity. Danger, Viral and Akula are known as the Speed Triumvirate.” Rusalka announced. “Didn’t know that, Rusalka.” Aria said, surprised. “Didn’t Danger tell about this earlier?” Rusalka said. “I think it might give us an edge in dealing with Oscura.” “I hope you’re right, Rusalka. No matter what that bastard that is Oscura will do, the Legion of Speedfreaks will be the digging her own grave.” Aria said. Aria got up and was now facing the window. “It’s not easy be a Speedfreak Leigonnare, Rusalka, but… I sometimes find it therapeutic to be brutally honest.” Aria stretched. “To me, I think Danger is an icon. Do you think that too, Rusalka?” This got Rusalka thinking. “What you mean?” Rusalka asked. “Well, you raced with Danger in Formula Equestria with McLaren back in 2009, the year before Danger started an ongoing grudge match with Oscura. I thought it would be over, but because of Oscura Galaxia being Oscura Galaxia, it gone on for over ten years now, he must be getting tired already.” Aria explained. “Aria, Danger is my friend, I really do think Danger is an icon, even the entire population of Danger City thinks so.” Rusalka responded “If it means to protect him from a inevitable curse from Oscura… I will do anything in my power.” Aria was sure that was Rainbow’s job. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Lounge, Friday 11th July 2021, 09:48 Oscura meanwhile was looking out of the window again, drinking her coffee, sheding some painful memories of when Danger crashed her car countless times during the Battle of Paradise City, which she hated with her ounce of fibre in her remorseless body, that reflected a dark silhouette with the blood red sun glowed an evil presence. She admired what she achieved, a persistent nightmare to the planet. The people who aren’t affect by the nightmare is the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, the entire population of Oscura City and, in a weird way, the Legion of Speedfreaks and the entire territory of the Legion itself. Another thought that unleashed on Oscura’s brain, is how the Legion of Speedfreaks weren’t affected by the crimson sun. She thought that the cars and themselves would have melted by the fear of the sun. Oscura hated the fact that Danger would’ve expected that she would have done something absolutely stupid. As Oscura takes another sip of her coffee, Lucia enters the room with a newly-acquired prisoner, Sonata Dusk, who was heavily brushed with a few scars on her forehead, her hair messed up, partially unconscious and gagged by duck-tape, she also had hand tied behind her back and her legs tied as well. “Oscura, we captured someone for you to brainwash.” Lucia announced. “Who is it?” Oscura said. “Sonata Dusk.” I never thought about brainwashing another Dazzling, let alone that bastard of Aria Blaze. Oscura thought to herself. “OK, then, where did find her and kind of force did you use?” “We found her about 125 miles from Oscura City moving east and I sent two OSC5 Imperator Interceptors to take her out. We used every method to immobilise her car.” Lucia replied to Oscura. “What vehicle was she using?” Oscura then asked. “A modified sky-blue Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG with a number plate ’11-SNTA-055996’ Legion of Speedfreaks specification.” Lucia replied. “Send her to the interrogation room A1. I will be asking the questions.” Oscura ordered. “What you say Oscura! Come on Sonata, you’re gonna be interrogated.” Lolestra said, while saluting. As Lucia took Sonata to the interrogated, Zephyr entered the room. “Hi Oscura, I’ve been thinking.” Zephyr greeted. “What about?” Oscura said, taking another sip of her coffee. “I’m thinking of building an armoured vehicle that has faster than the OAV8 Maledtica and has double the armour.” Zephyr replied. “Zephyr, I’m not playing the game where you can build the most strongest with my fellow members, and my slaves. But I am doing so with that shitface of Danger.” Oscura said. Zephyr had a thought about 5 seconds. “You hate him don’t you.” Zephyr asked. “Very fucking much!” Oscura said, letting a low-pitch growl. The growl Oscura was enough to convince Zephyr. “Why do I sometimes get the dumbest twerps in the team! I don’t want to include you, Inferno, Estrella, and the rest of my family, but some members in my army. My fucking army, are literally the worst!” Oscura groaned. “Why does killing Danger has to be herculean task?” “You’re still trying.” Zephyr said. “Zephyr, you’re not helping at all!” Oscura sighed. Danger City, 2 miles from the Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Friday 11th July 2021, 14:05 While Oscura was slightly being annoyed by her own members, Danger, Rainbow and Twilight had arrived back in Danger City with Danger exhaling at the fact that it was good to be back at the city he loves. Then Danger received a call from Akula. “Hey, Dean. Are you back and where are you now?” Akula asked “I’m back and I’m about 40 streets away from HQ. Why’s that?” “’I’ve been asked by Viral that she wants to meet you… and possibly talk about plans to defeat Oscura. So this was the person Akula was referring to! Could have known sooner and I think that Akula kept the whole thing a secret yesterday! Danger thought to himself in realisation. “So she’s at Tunnel 922N then, cause she told me last night.” “Yes, that’s right. Also I may need a hypercar as you rightly pointed out that the cars that Oscura is creating are getting faster.” Akula said. “After you’ve talked to Viral about the your problem with Oscura, I think need help with the name of the hypercar.” “Don’t worry, AK. I have an imaginative mind when it comes this sort of thing.” Danger replied. “OK, then. Don’t do anything stupid with Viral.” Akula warned. “I’m not gonna do anything down-right stupid, Akula. I’ll leave that to Oscura.” Danger said. “OK, then, Dean.” Akula announced. “I’ll tell Viral that you’re arriving. “OK, Akula.” Danger ended the call but started another call, this time to Rainbow. “Hi, Rainbow, I might delayed getting back to HQ.” Danger said. “Why’s that, Danger?” Rainbow asked. “I think someone wants to see me, preferrably over plans to defeat Oscura.” Danger replied. “OK, Danger. Err… Aria asked that she has a surprise for when you do eventually get back.” Rainbow then said in realisation Danger’s eyebrows were raised. “OK, Dashie, tell Aria that I’ll be about 15 to 20 minutes, if not, 25.” Danger said. “OK, Danger, see you at HQ, bye.” After Danger set his GPS coordinates to Tunnel 922N. Danger City, Tunnel 922N, Friday 11th July, 2021, 12:19 Danger had a been struggling to find Tunnel 922N because his GPS lost it’s signal, right when he got passed Tunnel 902N, which was a gut-punch to Danger. He knows he needs to find a red-blue and orange Ferrari 488 Pista. Danger had a hypercar planned both Akula and Viral, but when he got to Tunnel 907N, something went wrong with his Mithrilfire X. His washer bottles were bone dry. Danger didn’t have any in the car has it was already full from his luggage the night before. Two gut-punches in one day! Can’t this day get any worse? Danger sarcastically thought to himself. The permanent blood red solar eclipse didn’t help Danger in the slightest either. Everywhere he looks, a red glow would start to haunt him. After a couple of minutes of search, and a trip to service for more washer fluid, Danger reached Tunnel 922N where he hoped the Ferrari 488 Pista would be there, and luckily it was, accompanying the Ferrari was the person that Akula kept a surprise for him for at least 24 hours... Viral Velocity!
Chapter 21 - Imminent DestructionView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 21 - Imminent DestructionViral was looking a bit confused as to why Danger was at a bit late. But knowing that Danger speaks the words of truth. Viral was wearing a blue undershirt with a insignia of a stage microphone, she was also wearing a silver grey sweater with orange lines, black highlighted black shoes. Danger can recognise the crimson natural colour and the blue and orange hair, including the orange eyes. “Why were you a bit delayed, Dean.” Viral asked. “I just had to stop at a service station just fill my washer bottles on my Mithrilfire X.” Danger replied before getting to getting to the topic at hand. “So, Viral, you know what’s been going on with this rivalry between me and Oscura.” “What about it?” Viral asked. “She’s planning to build a massive army in order to deal with me. It seems she wants me dead and served to her a silver platter.” Danger explained. “Even though the Legion of Speedfreaks is, from what I can tell, is slightly outnumbered… and by slightly… I mean a lot.” “How much are you talking?” “Well, currently the Legion of Speedfreaks has 40 to 50 members as of today, but the amount of Alliance of Extreme Darkness member is a whole different kettle of fish, I made an estimate of about 38,350 members, and that number could get higher.” Danger replied to Viral’s eariler question. Viral was blown away by what Danger. “She’s crazy!” Viral said, while shocked. “Crazy is an understatement, Viral. She’s been acting rather strange over the past 24 hours.” “Why’s that, Dean?” “Well, first off…” Danger began. “Crimsonia told me, in the middle of a conversation between myself, Aria, Rainbow, Lightning and Sptifire, probably talking over plans the weak points of Oscura’s army… and more vehicle ideas, that Oscura developed a sort of post-traumatic stress attack between herself and her mother.” “Who’s her mother, Dean?” Viral asked. “Rosa Maleditca Galaxia.” Danger replied. Viral took a deep breath before Danger began part two of the story. “So anyway, back to the story at hand. The point is, she was having a shower at the time of the event and she was bad affected by the ordeal… that her irises were now permanently red and eyes were blood-shot in the same manner. It seems that Crimsonia had told me that what Oscura really is.” “What’s that?” Viral asked. Danger took a deep breath “A depreaved, psychotic and barbaric nymphomaniac. Twilight told me yesterday that she is evil.” He replied. “Well she is your nemesis after all, Dean. She’s more evil than Sombra and that’s what terrifying you more. I also knew you feared him ever since he tried over the Crystal Empire in the other world. Twice.” Viral symphizied. “Viral, you forgot something. Back in Paradise City, I saw him at… I forgot what name of street it was but… he had no intentions of enslaving me. Even now, two weeks have passed and I think he’s probably lying. Even though I struck a deal with him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he decided me in person.” Danger said. “Yeah, I just realised I think we better get back to HQ and we’ll discuss what we need to do… to end this threat and save at quarter of a billion lives.” Viral announced. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Mind Control Room, Friday 11th July 2021, 12:20 While Danger and Viral headed back to their HQ. The ‘Mind Conversion Seat’ was being prepared for the Alliance’s newest victim, Sonata Dusk. The way the Mind Conversation Seat works is that a helmet is placed on anyone’s head and it drains out their thoughts like a uncovered bath plug. A second helmet is applied which applies a typical Alliance member’s mindset which in turn, makes the person’s irises, in this case, Sonata’s, to go blood red, like Oscura’s. The process takes one minute to complete. Sonata was now strapped out onto with her wrists on the arms of the chair, her legs were crossed and strapped together. Two of Oscura’s commanders by the name of Lucia Nightsword and Cassandra Nightbane were preparing both helmets and as Lucia Galaxia and Oscura entered the room, the now conscious Sonata looked in mix of fear and anger. “You’re never gonna succeed In what you’re trying to accomplish, Oscura. Just wait until the wrath of the British Spee-“ Sonata spat out before receiving a slap from Lucia. “Just shut up, you! Soon you’ll be with us… until the day you die.” Lucia said in disgust. She now directed her attention to Oscura. “She’s a bit mad that we captured her. Shall we put out her misery?” “First, Lucia, I want to say something to her before the conversion starts.” Oscura said as she approached Sonata. She grabbed Sonata by the chin after she finished talking to Lucia. “Well, well, well. Sonata Dusk, one of the three Dazzlings. Oh I’m gonna have fun converted you to our mindset.” Oscura said. “It’s not gonna work, you trashcan of old tacos!” Sonata insulted her. “Well, your brain will be empty of your own pathetic thoughts… and one involves Danger, doesn’t it?” Oscura said in a sinister tone. “I hate you, Oscura, I always will!” Sonata spat out. “Soon… you will not hate me, Sonata. But you will have to fear me.” Oscura said. She then turned her attention to Lucia. “Start the sequence.” Lucia pressed a button and within seconds, the process started. After the minute passes, Sonata looked at Oscura with her blood-red iris on her eyeballs. “So, Sonata? Are you willing to be part of a global evolution?” Oscura wanting to shade Sonata’s hand. Sonata who was now unstrapped to the chair, shook Oscura’s hand. “Anything… for the Empress of Darkness.” Sonata said. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Conference Room, Friday 11th July 2021, 12:30 Meanwhile, Rusalka, Twilight, Rainbow, Aria, Danger, Viral, Akula and Crimsonia were now in the conference room, the discuss the possible weak points in the Army of Eternal Darkness. When they got their, they found a circular table and placed everything they needed on the table. Some of them “Right, we know that the Army of Eternal Darkness is getting larger and stronger every passing hour and this is what frightens me the most.” Twilight began. “You see this here?” She pointed to a vehicle partoling Oscura City. “This is one of Oscura’s newest weapons. The OAV8 Maledicta.” Danger looked in complete suspicision, as did Viral and Akula. “We need to lure them into a wall or a car, depending on which option is feasable.” Twilight continued. “Hold on a sec, Twi.” Danger interrupted. “If you thought the OAV6 Impalers were that easy to destroy, then the OAV8 Maledicta is what you have to worry about. “Why’s that, Dean?” Viral asked. “Well, V, the OAV8 Maledicta is what’s called a Super Heavy Urban Assualt Vehicle, or a SHUAV for short. They were originally going to use the OAV7 Metheos SHUAV, but the OAV7 Metheos SHUAVs were very unpopular among the eyes of the Army of the Eternal Darkness.” Danger explained. “Many were recalled because of the issue with the weaponry system being prone to exploding, while others escaped out of the fear of being caught red-handed by any Equestrian organisation, such as the Shadowbolt Speedfreak Squad, the Legion of Speedfreaks itself and… in some cases, any Oscura City rouge organisations that may want Oscura’s body served to them on a silver platter. But only one will get the top prize, if it means contacting the Danger City Police Department for extra reinforcements. But I recommend contacting them if the threat goes haywire.” This got Rusalka thinking. “Do you think we should contact now?” Rusalka asked. “No, Rusalka. Danger said we only do that as a last resort, but we’re Speedfreak Legionnaries after all, we shouldn’t be reliant on authorities that only deal with the matter lightly.” Aria replied. “I know that, Aria, but… I was having one of those moments again where I basically question of what to do with Oscura.” Rusalka confessed. “I never heard you confess that before, Rusalka.” Akula said in surprise. “OK, the point is that…” Twilight said before pausing. “Oscura is the most evil person in the world.” It was that moment Danger had something to point out. She thought that Danger explained it better because he faced Oscura before. “Another thing as well she is that Oscura has this as well.” Danger said as he showed everyone else the OSC5 Imperator Tenebris Helixia. The OSC5 Imperator Tenebris Helixia itself was a blend of a Devel Sixteen, W Motors Fenrir, Lamborghini Ferrcuio. The paint was carbon black and a red Oscura-style eagle on the roof and bonnet. He also shown them another project Oscura was working, much to Danger’s dismay, the Oscura Sports Cars OPR1 Amnixiel. The hypercar with blends of the Raser Tachyon Speed, the Toyota GR010 Hybrid Le Mans car and the Radical SR10. The engine was the same in the OSC5 Imperator, the only difference was that is was near 6,000 horsepower beast. Coupled with a top speed of 418 miles per hour, the design was enough to shock all but Viral, Akula and Rainbow. “This is what we are also dealling with as well, even though we fought aganist the Changelings… excluding Akula, in the other world, but the Army of Eternal Darkness is a whole different kettle of fish.” “I’ve also noticed, Dean, that she has a room in the Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ that there is a room where Oscura keeps her ‘prisoners’ in her grasp.” Akula said. “Akula, when you say ‘prisoners’, do you mean ‘a tool for the Alliance’s war machine’?” Rainbow asked. “If we do a rescue mission to liberate their prisoners, I may need my Scorpion EVO if we come across any of Oscura’s grandious collections of arse shavings, safety’s off, ready to fire.” Danger hinted. This got Viral thinking. “Dean, what if one of her ‘prisoners’ turn out to be a Speedfreak Legionnaire?” Viral asked. “I would know by the tone in their voices.” Danger replied. “If one of them resorts to pulling a Desert Eagle to my forehead, it’s an Alliance member. If one of them resorts to hugging me to the point where my spine would crack to a million pieces in a act of relief, it’s a Speedfreak Legionnaire.” Twilight meanwhile was getting a bit annoyed with the fact that Danger, Akula, Viral and Rainbow had gone off-topic. Author's Note I went into cliff-hanger mode again
Chapter 21b - The Race of the Triumvirate + Rage of a Twin SisterView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 21b - The Race of the Triumvirate + Rage of a Twin SisterThe race went underway with Akula making a move on Viral at the first corner, but was being reeled in by the Iskur of Danger. As Danger got the fastest accelerating car, he made a move on Akula and was now in the lead of the race. During the Nordschleife Sector 2 part of the track, Danger was maitaining the lead but when the three headed to the ‘Akulasel’ Danger completely up on the entry with caused Akula to sweep by him. And in the final parts of the track Akula held on to win the race with Danger second and Viral third. “What happened at the Akulasel, Danger.” Akula asked the British Speedfreak. “I did an Oscura and mess it up instantly.” Danger confessed. “I won’t worry about it. I think we should get back to HQ and plan the squad to defeat Oscura.” Akula suggested. “Sure thing, mate.” Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Lounge, Friday 11th June, 2021, 14:00 While the Triumvirate headed back to their base of operations. Sonata was laying on the couch in an attempt to relieve the pressure from the reality dose that Oscura gave her. With Adagio now in the room trying to help, to no avail, it was clear that Sonata knew her life was at stake. But she also wanted to see Lucia about something, she says that there’s another new asset to the madwoman’s troupe. Even though Sonata wanted to meet her but Adagio warned that if Sonata talked about her nemesis, she will go into an Oscura-esque freakout, which was what Sonata had to aclimatize to. 20 seconds later, Lucia arrived and heading into the room was the new member. Her natural colour of light purple wasn’t horrifying to either Sonata or Adagio, but what was her retinas giving a dark purple glare on Sonata, her blood-red eyes was another part to an eventual horror for Sonata, but Adagio wasn’t afraid of the new member. With her hair being an combination of Pinkie’s unfluffed hair and braids on the top in red, in tandem with an altered Adagio-style outfit, with the alters being that the outfit is sleeves, one short front side and the long back side which went to down to her heel, even though she was wearing Adagio-style boots. Her outfit also contained a symbolism which contained an red ouroboros with a red three-headed eagle holding two swords in it’s claws. The symbolism was on the back of her outfit. She was also wearing black, shiny fingerless opera-style gloves. On both of arms was a black tattoo in the form of a dragon. She was also wearing an Oscura armband on her right arm. Her entrance gave Adagio plenty of time to ask the new member a question. “Who are you?” Adagio asked. The new member gave Adagio a death-stare in a look that has ‘I’m gonna murder you when you’re least expecting’ written all over her face. “I… am Dahlia Nightblaze.” She said with sent a shiver down Sonata’s spine. “Why are you here?” Adagio then asked. “It’s obvious, Adagio.” Dahlia replied. “I’ve heard about the curse that is the British Speedfreak which is plaguing us right to the bone. If my twin sister is with Danger… she will be in for a real surprise when I capture her… and make her my slave.” “Who is your sister, Dahlia?” An intrigued Adagio asked. Dahlia held an answer for about 5 seconds. “I will not speak her name.” Dahlia said. “I personally she’s evil, the Legion of Speedfreaks are evil. She… most importantly… is my nemesis.” This caused a little concern for Adagio. “Who? Lucia, if Dahlia doesn’t say it, you might!” She said, looking at Lucia. “Adagio… it’s someone called Iris Dayspark.” Adagio then remembered something. Sonata had sneakily left the room under Adagio’s, Lucia’s and Dahlia’s nose and went to get her. “She’s only just been converted an hour ago and she’s not used to seeing people like you.” Lucia said. But Dahlia wasn’t interested in Sonata’s fear of her. “Pitiful, it seems that some of your members have some kind of fear against me.” Dahlia began. “That’s what I like. I like how people’s feelings suddenly crumble when eyes fixate on me.” She clenched her fist and caressed it on her heart. She then looked at Lucia. “I want to speak to the people of Oscura City about the threat of my twin sister and most importantly, the Legion of Speedfreaks in general.” “That can be arranged, Dahlia. I know for a fact that you do good speaches and get the message across.” Lucia said. “When do you plan to do it?” “16:00.” Dahlia replied. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Production Room, Friday 11th June 2021, 14:15 While Dahlia was planning her speech, Crimsonia and Azura In the main productioon room, finishing off there new creations. Crimsonia’s new hypercar is called the CRD2 Dragonpulse and to her sister’s eyes, is was a thing of beauty. With the body masquerading a Lamborghini Egoista, Lamborghini Estoque and a Ferrari BR20, teamed with a widebody named by Crimsonia as the ‘Dragonpulse X Kit’, a goose-neck wing. Powered by a 7.5 liter twin-turbo V12 with four electric motors for each of the wheels, making a 3,297 horsepower rocket ship. Flat out, the Dragonpulse would go 406 mph. Azura’s was the same as Crimsonia’s as they share the same name, but Azura’s is called the AZD2 Dragonpulse. As the Dragonsfire sisters was preparing their cars for the upcoming storm, a light-pink girl entered with a hairstyle similar to Dahlia’s but black. She was wearing a purple t-shirt with a sun and sparks which fomed a circle around the sun, her lower garment were the same as Black Flame and the same shoes but in light purple and pink Her name… was Iris Dayspark. “Oh, hi Iris! How’s your day been so far?” Crimsonia greeted her. “Fine, thanks for asking.” Iris replied. “Apart from the fact that my damned twin sister keeps sending death threats of which I’ve been constantly ignoring for the past couple of days.” This got Azura interested. “Who’s your sister, Iris?” Azura asked. “Dahlia Nightblaze, she’s like Oscura most days. Evil, remorseless and bascially too dangerous to be kept alive. If Danger doesn’t what she may do at 4pm today, we will wonder what terror she may unleash.” Crimsonia held a thought. “We will be ready, Iris.” she said, “We have all the blueprints we need to defeat her. With some adjustments, our army will be ready to combat Oscura and her cronies. Oscura City, The Oscurahall, Friday 11th June 2021, 15:59 A gathering of around 25,000 people which filled the entire Oscurahall was murmuring about their various topics before a fanare started and as Dahlia walked to the podium, the gathering stood up and performed Dahlia’s salute where they cross their arms at a 180-degree angle while chanting ‘Glory to Oscura’ multiple times. As Dahlia saluted, the chanting stopped and the gathering sat down, ready to listen to the words that Dahlia speaks. “Ladies and gentlemen,” Dahlia began, “this audience has gathered today, filling the most exquisite building in Oscura City, to hear the words of it’s latest addition to the forces of the Army of Eternal Darkness and a pledge… to make Oscura City… the greatest city in the entire world.” The crowd applaused as Dahlia cleared her throat again. “Now, dear people of Oscura City. Many of you might rightfully ask yourselves; "Why are we sending thousands of our soldiers to a city that is an impenetrable wall of forces of the good. Bound together by the mortar of paradise, blended into a concrete wall of hamorny." And so, I fully understand your rightful concerns, but instead we need to think; "Where exactly is the heart of Danger’s pitiful band of avaricious souls who… I THINK, TEARS EVERY SINEW FROM MY BODY!” I want you to look to the south of us, see the leaders of the Legion of Speedfreaks. If you know a thing or two about them, you'll know that they are all either directly affiliated with or surrounded by the affiliates of their beloved petty goddess; Princess Celestia. Why do you think that possibly tens of thousands of soldiers from every organization of all over Equestria and this continent named ‘Aeris’ meet up at Danger City? The reason: is to take us and lock us away till we become figments of their pathetic imaginations. If Oscura City had a problem with friendships, we would hire psychiatrists instead of meeting Danger and his roaches. But again, this whole 'paradise of speed' deal is obviously not their real goal. Have any of you ever thought about how many cities within the borders of Legion of Speedfreaks managed to solidify their position without firing a single shot? Why did so many other countries that are in Legion of Speedfreaks territory have literally volunteer to be a mere shadow of Equestria with the formation of the Speedfreak Alliance? And all that just to be led by a Danger City idiot named DangerDean, who is, of course, a speedfreak with a long established career... of making Oscura’s life HELL!” Dahlia stops and takes a sip of water before continuing. "Do any of you think that when we are done with the conquest of the Danger City, the war shall be over? NO! Our REAL war has over ten years ago. All across the world, you see Speedfreak Alliance elites, mostly originating from Equestria and Danger City itself, settle in major cities, quickly climb through the ranks by pure ‘miracle’, exploit our resources for their gain and slowly jeprodize Oscura City to oblivion. All while trying to preserve the current status quo with their endless calls for 'paradise' and 'peace'. They claim that they only want peace and paradise. Of course, they would want that! What else would they want at a time where everything goes in their favor? In a time, they finally overcame every single internal and external threat to them. In a time, they have no war and crises to worry over. And for a reasonable man or woman, what 'paradise' would be there between a slave and its master… or mistress in Oscura’s case." "I spent multiple years in total traveling to various countries all across the world while representing Oscura City, I visioned something disturbing, it was what my recent friend Zephyr Galaxia endured a few years back. She was made a cyborg because her getting punched by DANGER HIMSELF! If it was some other member that Danger assaulted, it would make us stronger while the others crawl down to ground and emotionally bleeding from the inside like the COWARDS THE LEGION OF SPEEDFREAKS ARE! If you, ANY OF YOU get assualted by the horse-shit speedfreaks, what protection do you get? Everything! Why? Because there is no other city that looks after its citizens that uses the Oscura Galaxia model of discipline, like us! During our raids in Equestria in 2016, we decided to reap all their resources and blueprints from multiple cities and even stole valuable items for several powerful people within the ranks of the Equestrian and Legion of Speedfreak’s society but not limited to generals, artists, writers, and celebrities, at one point we even caught the attention of the Equestrian public in 2016. They labeled us a threat to their society and wanted to see us rot in hell! I remembered a time when we thought we had accomplished something... something meaningful... something that would help the people of Oscura City rise above the idiots of the south... And what did we receive from our raid on the cities of Equestria in 2018? They had nothing of value for us to pillage, as if they wanted to spit on our faces. This disgusted Oscura herself, claiming that their goods have been diverted to Danger City as a last ditch effort to see us go desperate.” Dahlia takes anther sip of water "And the saddest part is, some, if not most, of these cybernetic soldiers that I saw eariler in 2016 were part of families, either brothers, sisters and… sons and daughters who their previous selves never got to see their full potential. But we, people of Oscura, learnt to understand about the possible of what life may throw at us. We bounce back, like a reborn, LIKE A TRUE ALLIANCE OF EXTREME DARKNESS MEMBER DOES! Now, five years on… and after I met Zephyr Galaxia for the first time… I realised that my judgement on cyborgs was flawed. I orginally viewed them as outlaws, renegades with no regard to any law within the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. But now… it became to clear that they are not enemies within the ranks… but friends.” “How could just one team of people who wants to see us gone from the face of reality, can become so annoying and persistent. It just shows how resillient they are, which sickens me! So, we can say in a way people in Equestria themselves are a victim of the vision of speed and paraside, they usually waste their entire lives chasing after a childish vision of reality, where every living being can just play around, creating exotic cars, have chats, make friends all day long. And many of you might find this fact shocking, but just because something is childish does not make it impossible, it makes it irrational. As I said, I've been to Equestria multiple times, and I've been to cities that are downright utopian, Canterlot City, Manehattan, the sky city of Phoenixia Borealis and Vanhoover; which our undercover agents have entered yesterday, I'd like to congratulate them one more time here. So, those cities are like the things we would see in our childhood dreams, outright majestic. At the time I thought to myself; ‘Perhaps the theory of speed and paradise is the way to go.’, I know me saying this is shocking. But the more I saw the true side of these cities, the more I dismayed I become with them.” “Long story short, I managed to get out of Equestria intact through unorthodox ways, with originals and copies of the texts in a suitcase. I can’t tell you how I did it since this would mean declassifying secret information, and since there might be a time where we have to use the same ways again… As I said before, this visit gave me a vital lesson, which led to most of my real friends create the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. The words that engraved my mind were; “Trust in the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, not in paradise.’ I originally thought they would be a source of pain. But it led to a source of anger, a source of purpose. And most importantly… a source of reason. We live in a dangerous world, Oscura City. The roaches of the Speedfreaks will come to us, they may pillage our buildings, break our bones, kill our people. But there’s one that’s unbreakable, that… is path of a perfect utopia where we can do whatever we want and become THE MOST POWERFUL PEOPLE IN THE WORLD! There’s no need to fear anything, Oscura City. We are at the turning point of creating history. They say that history is written by the victors. But sometimes, the victors will be us. The Alliance of Extreme Darkness and any of you will know… that we take the fight right down to the Danger’s doorstep.” The crowd applaused again before Dahlia starts slamming the podium. “THE BLINDFOLD THAT BLINDS US ALL IS GONE. IT WILL REVEAL THE ENEMY, OUR ENEMY! IT’S DANGER. WE WILL CRUSH HIM LIKE A ROCK SLAMMING ON THE ANTS THAT THEY ARE, BURN DANGER CITY TO ASHES AND CREATE A NEW WORLD WHERE THE ALLIANCE WILL RULE THE WORLD AND THE STARS FOR A THOUSAND, THOUSAND YEARS! The crowd applaused again before saluting and chanting ‘GLORY TO OSCURA’ twenty times with Dahlia joining in on the tenth time.
Chapter 22a - New ReinforcementsView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 22a - New ReinforcementsBack at Danger City, the Legions of Speedfreaks were preparing their own army to defeat the looming Army of Eternal Darkness. Hatsune was preparing her squad of vehicles for her group called ‘Elixir’. The leading car was Hatsune’s latest creation, the Hatsune HS03X. The Hatsune HS03 was a hypercar built with the asthetic of a Nissan GT-R R35 and a Porsche 935. Powering the HS03 is 5 liter V6 with two turbo chargers and four 325 horsepower electirc to power all four wheels. The engine itself produces 1830 horsepower but with the motors, a 3130 horsepower cocktail was created for the a speed of 414 miles per hour. The other cars will be seven HSXVD1s, Rin Powershock’s PR01X which is Hatsune’s car only yellow and Luka Arcanelight’s LA03X which is also the same as Hatsune’s but as 140 horsepower more and does 416 miles per hour. The HSXVD1s were basically modified Toyota Tacomas with a 870 horsepower 7.5 liter super-charged V8, a 16-inch electricity beam cannon on the roof and on the bed of the HSXVD1s was power crates to charge the cannons. Danger was working on multiple projects with the help of Rainbow, Black Flame and Crimsonia. The projects were his own ‘street tank’, the O-K6-ST Zephyr which was bascially a Challenger II tank but with a road lane track width, his own electric Minature Unmanned Aerial Combat Drone, the D-189 MUACD ‘Silent Storm’ and 10 trucks named the ‘Super Mammoth’. The Super Mammoth was an originally modified Ram TRX pickup truck by Hennessey as the Hennessey Mammoth 1000, but Danger modified it again so that the engine now produces 1160 horsepower and he also fitted a ram plow on it with a bumper guard to protect the front bumper. He also fitted a 25-inch red-ion cannon with two 10-inch machine guns on the sides of the ion cannon. While Danger was working on the Super Mammoths, Aria, Akula, Viral and Iris were in the penthouse, discussing what Oscura may unleash on one of the biggest cities on Aeris. “What do you think Oscura might send to destroy us, Aria?” Akula asked. “Well, Akula.” Aria began, “There’s more to the Army of Eternal Darkness than just OAV6 Impalers, OAV8 Maledictas and anything she used in previous skirmishes. She is also using these.” Aria displayed two pictures on the monitor. The left picture contained a metalic dragon with tank-style plating and a flamethrower in it’s mouth. The right picture contained a three-legged walker mech in black with red decals and Oscura’s war symbol. Akula’s eyebrows were raised and Viral felt a shiver down her spine. “What are they?!” Viral exclaimed. “The left picture is what’s called a ‘Panzerdragon’ and the one on the right… is one of Oscura’s most powerful weapons… the ‘Oscura Monitor’ or the ‘Eye of Oscura’. Aria explained. “What terrifies me a bit, is the eye, it also can also speak, and it’s power is equivilant of about 4 DGR21 Iskurs. “What kind of power does this thing have?” Akula asked. “The Oscura Monitor has variable weaponry but generally oriented towards taking on large numbers of slower supercars in an urban setting. The engine compartment in the lower part of its body mounts three sponsons or ball turrets facing in different directions, each housing a trio of machine guns. The hatch on the bottom face of the engine/turret area is surrounded by three flamethrowers to restrict access to its engines. Heavier weapons are mounted in the head/turret on top of the body: the red cyclopean-esque eye on the front of the turret is actually the focusing lens for an energy weapon which must be charged for several seconds before firing, and two pylons on either side of the turret each mount three multi-tube missile launchers, capable of holding 19 missles in each tube.” Aria explained. “Does Danger know anything about this?” Viral asked. “I don’t think he does, V. I think I might tell him, actually.” Aria replied. Meanwhile, Danger, along with a few of his childhood friends, Sonic Flash, Amy Firepetal and Pasadena Dragonstorm were creating some more cars. Sonic Flash is like Danger in some ways, a speed freak that loves going at the speed of sound with his own cars or Danger’s, depending on whichever he chooses. His blue natural colour, black t-shirt with a blue spinning ninja star with a lightning bolt going through it, black and blue striped shorts and Danger-style trainers and white and black socks was enough to convice everyone (Danger at least) that he was a good asset. Even though Sonic’s cars were about 2mph slower than the cars which were built by his crimson clone, his clothing and dark blue Rainbow Dash-esque hairstlye doesn’t scream anything slow about him. Amy Firepetal’s personality his mixture of Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie when she is joyful, but she sounds like Oscura when she gets mad and when she does, she dual-wields modified red-pink CZ Scorpion EVO 3, similar to Danger’s (even though Amy has S1s and Danger has an S3). Her natural colour is similar to Pinkie’s, her is like Iris Dayspark’s but shorter and non braided at the top and her clothing is a red collared shirt with her initials and a logo which consisted of a petal of a flower and a fireball forming a ‘V’. She also was wearing a similar to Rarity’s but in a dark shade of pink and similar shoes to Rarity’s but without the diamonds. She has a reputation of hugging Sonic till the sun explodes whenever Sonic wins any races or saves her from any threat (i.e. Oscura). But Danger told her not to, because he claimed it will screw up his focus. Pasadena also has a pedigree of when it comes to racing cars at mach 0.6. A two-time Equestrian Le Mans 24 Hours winner in her Aston Martin Vantage AMR GTE in and runner-up in the DangerDrive Motorsport Park 24 Hours in the previous year in the Hypercar class. Pasadena’s hair is similar to Sonata Dusk’s but the tail is shorter and coloured in purple and turqouise. Her natural colour is lavendar with a blue-ish tint. She was wearing a light purple shirt with two with dragons forming a yin-yang pattern. She was also wearing tight denim jeans with Sunset’s boots in dark purple. Sonic was designing a new car for one of Danger’s car companies, Danger Automotive. The DNG-MRZ23 Sentinel. The DNG-MRZ23 Sentinel is a mixture of a Mercedes-Benz CLS53 AMG, a Chevrolet Equinox and a Alfa Romeo Giulia. Sonic planed to do 4 variants, the V8 Sport, V8 Luxura, W12 Luxura and the V12 Sport. “Danger, do you know anything that Oscura would do if… like she captures us?” Sonic asked. “That’s something you don’t want to imagine, she would probably ripped off a human head and spit down his or her neck.” Danger replied. Before either Amy, Sonic or Pasadena could speak, Aria entered the room. “Danger, I know you’re enjoying yourself creating new cars for your own manufacturer, but there’s something I need to show you.” Aria said. Danger knew that something was wrong. “What’s is it.” Danger asked. “This… is what we could face.” Aria replied, showing him the picture of the Oscura Monitor.” Son of a bitch! Danger thought. She is basically exponentially powerful. “This is probably the machine to finish us off. We need to build something that will destroy it. Though, I imagine it will be your capable hands as you’re our weapon of defeating the Oscura Monitor.” When Aria left the room, Amy had a slight hint of anger for reasons only known to herself “Danger, it’s just a simple robot that needs about 10 rounds of my Scorpion.” Amy said. “Amy, the Oscura Monitor is practically indestructible, it can withstand any amount of CZ Scorpion fire at close range with little to no damage. It would probably survive long to make a barbeque out of your intestines.” Danger replied. “We gotta hope that eye doesn’t fry us.” Sonic said. “That thing has more power than your cars, Danger.”
Chapter 22b- Second Betrayal + Testing the Oscura MonitorView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 22b- Second Betrayal + Testing the Oscura MonitorOscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Lounge, Friday 11th June, 2021, 19:45 While Danger was trying to figure out a way of disabling the Oscura Monitor that’s at large to their minds, Zephyr was in the main lounge with Dahlia, walking around the room, thinking about what Danger is doing… relenting to their newest weapon, the Oscura Monitor. “This is going to be perfect. When the Monitor is online, it will be a perfect use to guard the people of Oscura City.” Zephyr said. “Zephyr, I can sense what Danger might do to the monitor. Not to mention my sad excuse for my sister is having the mindset of a Speedfreak Legionnaire. Why the fuck didn’t I listen to her? And why do have to listen to a evil Twilight Sparkle clone who keeps bleating on about her eternal hatred of Danger? Why do we have to focus our energy, manpower and resources… to hunt an army of idiots who would while away their evenings playing on racing games and watch movies, while designing cars that will annihilate ours?” Dahila ranted. “That’s Oscura for you.” Zephyr said. “Besides, I don’t think she’s worrying about it now… at least I think not. Her main priority is to focus on the Oscura Monitor. Then in two days, the next wave will commence.” As Zephyr spoke, Thundershock, Dark Fire, Diamond Rush and Rotten Apple entered the room to relax, As Anti-Pinks attempted to close the door, Lucia and Lolestra also entered the room. “Why though?” Dahlia asked, before turning into a face of anger. “If Oscura is wasting her time in dealing with Danger, I suggest she would do something more… productive.” Thundershock heard the conversion. “What do you mean by ‘productive’? You mean… enslaving Speedfreak Legionnaries and using Danger as her own doormat to wipe her boots clean?” Thundershock said, feeling like she would become the second Alliance of Extreme Darkness member to betray Oscura Galaxia, the first being Midnight Skies in the Battle of Paradise City. “What do you mean, Thundershock?” Zephyr asked. “You are the one to drop salt to a gapping wound. To my surprise, Dahlia, you seem to not care about the feeling of LOSING to Danger. You seem to have the rhetoric that if you get defeated by Danger, you take it like Danger if he lost a race… which is taking it like a Speedfreak should.” Thundershock said, venomously. “What are ya on about?” Rotten Apple asked. “None of your business, Rotten Apple!” Thundershock spat out, before turning back to Dahlia. “I need a drive to cleanse my mind from the words that Oscura keeps bleating on about.” “Go ahead, Thundershock, you may need it.” Dahlia said. As Thundershock made her exit, Lolestra sat where Thundershock was. “I think she’s having thoughts of a Speedfreak and there is a 2% chance that she may defect to the Legion, we have to find a way to stop that from happening.” Lolestra suggested. “I hope she doesn’t.” Rotten Apple said. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Main Control Room, Friday 11th June, 2021, 20:25 While Alliance was fearing a potential desertion, Lightning Dust was with Aria sorting out what vehicles they will need for their own task force for defending Danger City. “Aria, I know it’s hard trying to neutralize Oscura… or anything what Danger may be planning on her but… I don’t think we have the right number of forces, espically since Danger told me about the Oscura Monitior.” Lightning said, feeling a bit down. “Lightning…” Aria said, facing her, “I understand that you’re sceptical about the forces that Oscura may be yielding, but… from Akula shared with me yesterday… I think Oscura is infected by her own anger to the point where she will rip Danger’s heart out. If she had the chance.” “Since when did you become friends with Danger?” Lightning asked. “Two months since the Battle of the Bands. I didn’t tell Danger what had happened or he would blame Dash for my defeat.” Aria replied. “You know, Lightning? I’m glad!” “Glad about what?” “I’m so glad that I ditched Adagio before the Battle of Paradise City started. That annoying freak that is Adagio is away from my soul! She was demanding me so-“ Aria said before being interrupted. “Aria, a car is heading out of Oscura City.” Lightning said. “How far has the vehicle travelled?” Aria asked. “50 miles parts Oscura City moving southbound.” Lightning replied. “What is it?” “It’s a black and green modified Lamborghini Aventador with license plate ‘812-OSC-2031’.” “Sounds like an Alliance of Extreme Darkness member, see if Danger’s available and also Viral, we need more than two people for this.” While Aria searched for Danger and Viral, a thought occurred to Lightning. “I don’t know what Danger’s planing with this, but I think it could be a prelude to a large attack.” Lightning said to herself. “If so, we do have the resources needed to you down, Oscura. Mark my words.” One minute later, Viral and Danger with Aria closing the door. “What’s the matter, Aria?” Danger asked. “We have a black and green modified Lamborghini Aventador coming into Danger City.” Aria replied. “Only one?” Viral said, turning to Danger. “Why are sending them now, shall I ready the MP7?” “Actually, Viral.” Danger said. “I got an idea.” “What is it, Danger?” Lightning asked. “You’ll soon find out. Aria, open the comms.” Danger replied. Two seconds later, a face appeared on the monitor, the face of Thundershock, then the screen turned off. Aria tried again but this time she heard Thundershock’s voice. “Go away.” Danger was shocked by this. “What’s going on?” Danger said. “Give me voice control on the opening communications command, Aria.” Aria pressed several buttons. “Thundershock?” “No.” “Thundershock?” “No.” “Thundershock!” “No.” Danger faced Aria. “Aria, can you try hacking into the Avendator’s communications channel and override it’s shutdown veto?” Aria pressed more buttons. “Thundershock?” Danger said. “No. No. N- Danger?” Thundershock asked. “What is going on?” Danger said with a demanding look on his face. “Danger, I didn’t want to tell Oscura cause I might get killed by Oscura if I did but… “ Thundershock replied before letting a deep breath. “I’m defecting to your side.” “Why?” “Oscura is abusing her power and is turning Oscura city into a living hell, you need to stop her at all costs. I’m sending you vital information that I can discuss with you and your cohorts.” Thundershock replied. “OK then, what you planning to do now.” Danger asked her. “I’m heading to the Supreme Phoenix Resort only 6 miles away to get some sleep ‘cause Oscura is driving me crazy.” Thundershock replied. “You can say that again.” Danger said, sarcastically. “Anyways, I’ll see you tomorrow.” Thundershock said before Aria took off the shutdown overrider and turned off. “She’s… defecting to our side?” Lightning said, surprised. “Danger, can you explain to me, what the hell just happened? Why are you letting Alliance of Extreme Darkness members joining the Legion of Speedfreaks?” Viral asked. “Viral, I’m thinking that Thundershock wasn’t a Alliance of Extreme Darkness to begin. She’s obviously a spy for the Alliance and Sonic told me that she… was trying to hack into the Oscura Monitor, but Lolestra Maledicta stopped her. Thundershock claimed to test the speech system. But Lolestra was having none of it. She even got a mouthful from Oscura which probably led to her lying to Dahlia Nightblaze. She even took a box of memory sticks and hard drives and place them in the passenger footwell to avoid detection.” Danger explained. “Also, the benefit of having Alliance of Extreme Darkness defector on our side… is that they may have a certain piece of information the we don’t know yet. Who knows what’s inside that box full of memory?” “Danger, she’s brainwashed and I can see it in her eyes. We need to let the Danger City Police Department know about this.” Viral said, not beliveing a word Danger said. “Viral, I’m afraid I have to agree with Danger on this.” Aria said. “Oh… OK” Viral said after remembering what Danger said before. “ I trust you Danger.” Then, two minutes later, Sonic arrived. “Danger, can I have a moment with you?” “What about?” Danger replied. Sonic directed Danger to outside of the control room. “I think we may have another potential enemy on our hands.” Sonic said. “Who?” “Some organization called… the Egg Legion.” Sonic said. “Sonic, are you drunk? I feel like shit is gonna hit the fan if Il Douchebag gets any ideas.” Danger asked. “Who, Oscura?” Sonic replied. “Yes!” “We have no quarry with them… yet but I think you should meet their leader.” Sonic suggested. “Oh sweet Celestia on a bicycle!” Danger said under his breath. Oscura City, Londor Monitor Control Room, Friday 11th June, 2021, 21:10 Meanwhile, Oscura was in the room where her magnum opus would be tested. “OK, Oscura Monitor.” Oscura asked the three-legged walker. “What do you say when you see the flith that is Danger. “A known Speedfreak has been sighted. On behalf on the citizens of Oscura City, you are ordered to surrender to the Empress!” The Oscura Monitor boomed. “Cease your criminal activity!” The Oscura Monitor turned to a wall and began charging it’s main weapon. An energy sphere came out of the eye and exploded with electricity pulsating outwards from the blast.
Chapter 23 - A Crimson Sunrise and an Argument Under the Crimson RainView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 23 - A Crimson Sunrise and an Argument Under the Crimson RainDanger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Penthouse Suite, Saturday 12th June 2021, 08:45 With the world now succumbed to the power of the Crimson Sun, Danger wasn’t that bothered about it because he thinks that machine Oscura could be manually deactivated. He sipped his coffee and gazed into the distances as the Crimson Sun gave an ominous glare. Few months later, he sat down on the couch and wanted to check what was on the news. He switched on the custom 64 inch flat-screen TV at the right time because it showed parts of the Army of Eternal Darkness. Shots of OSC5 Imperator Elixirs, OAV8 Maledictas, Leopard 2A7s with dragon head-shaped turrets and flamethrowers which Oscura named ‘Drachenpanzers’, a multitude of Oscuraguards which were heavy robots capable of firing red lasers and the main guardian of Oscura City, the Oscura Monitor. “What the…” Danger said to himself in shock. He paused the news broadcast to gather any thoughts he may have about what he saw. Oh my goddess, Oscura. You really are flexing your war machine muscles a lot here. Danger thought to himself. Then Rusalka entered the room and she felt symphathy towards Danger as he had been the victim of Oscura’s acts. Her vision was fixated on the Oscura Monitor that was on the TV screen. “What the… Danger, you know about this?” Rusalka said in the same amount of shock that Danger was in. “Yeah, too much, Rusalka,” Danger groaned. “I really think we’re not gonna get out of this nightmare in one piece… now that the Oscura Monitor is now operational.” “What do you mean, Danger?” Rusalka asked. “Rusalka, Oscura is permenantly hellbent on killing me so that they can enslave us like what she did Sonata Dusk.” Danger replied. “Sonata? Why didn’t you tell us before the second assualt, Danger!?” Rusalka demanded. “She told me last week she had flashback to Adagio and she isn’t the nicest of the Dazzlings, unlike Aria and herself. She was on the return journey when she got ambushed by the Allaince of Extreme Darkness and… do what they did to her?” Danger replied. “They swapped her mindset and she was now loyal to her mistress… which is Oscura.” “When have you heard that?” Rusalka asked. “Sonic told me.” Danger replied. “He also told me last night that I meet this ‘Egg Legion’ business which I thought to be a hoax and that Sonic was clearly intoxicated… on stupidity.” “He told me it’s genuine before I need the news of-“ Rusalka said before being interrupted by the arrival of Aria. “Danger, I think someone is trying to contact you for the past thirty minutes.” Aria said, “Who?” “Who do you think?” Danger went silent for a moment. “Not her is it?” Danger asked. “Afraid so. She wants to speak to you, one to one, in a park at an unknown location, 243 miles from here.” Aria replied. “I will give her the taste of my medicine one day, Aria.” Danger said. “Believe me I will.” “I know you will, Danger.” Rusalka said, putting her hand on Danger’s shoulder. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Underground Car Park, Floor -8, Saturday 12th June 2021, 09:00 While Danger was getting ready for a possible bullet to the chest (according to Danger’s thoughts), Aria, Beatrice and Rainbow were going over the some of the cars that Beatrice built. Beatrice Radiance was wearing a simiar outfit to Viral’s but in light blue, yellow and orange and on her shoes had her emblem with consists of a mirrored ‘B’ and a ‘R’. Her hairstyle was similar to Cloudchasers but in blue and yellow. She is also long-time friends with Rusalka Swordlight. Beatrice first showed Aria and Rainbow her mid-engine project Porsche 911 GT2 RS she created back in 2018. The modifications Beatrice put on the Porsche was a Duke Dynamics widebody kit, a custom rear wing, a 1,040 horsepower 4.7 liter V8 and an eight speed racing gearbox. Flat out, her Porsche 911 GT2 RS can achieve a top speed of 220 miles per hour. “I remember you building this, Beatrice. The pure genius is something that Danger could achieve.” Aria said. “What’s your secret to this?” Rainbow asked. “Well, Dash. The idea is to make sure your anti-roll bars on your cars aren’t stiff because you will understeer. That’s something that you wouldn’t want when you are being chased by Oscura.” Beatrice replied. “You know about Oscura? When?” Aria was shocked by this. “Rusalka told me, I knew that would be in serious trouble if I didn’t come here.” Beatrice said. “Now Aria, if you thought the 1,040 horsepower wasn’t enough for you. You can try the Beatrice Motors BR002.” “What is that?” Aria asked. “The cars beside the what I call the BR001.” Beatrice replied. “It’s a Porsche 911 GT2 RS again, same engine as before but it has 1,165 hp. It also have Chevrolet Corvette C7 and Lamborghini Aventador influences including the same widebody kit.” “Wow!” Rainbow exclaimed. “And beside that is the Radiant 750. It basically a heavily modified Porsche Macan with 750 horsepower 4.7 liter V8. There’s also an extreme offroad version two floors up.” Beatrice said pointing to the car. “If Danger could see this I think he would’ve have took that thing for a spin.” Rainbow stated before realising something. “Speaking of… where is he?” “Danger’s probably having an argument with Oscura over dumb shit again.” Beatrice replied. “In fact, Beatrice… He’s doing that as we speak. I told him to take the teleporter to around 100 meters withtin the location I put in.” Aria said. Unknown Location, Saturday 12th June 2021, 09:30 While Beatrice going over her projects, Oscura was gazing into the crimson horizon while the rain was pouring down. She was in an oriental-style arch with a roof over her head in order for her leather outfit to not get wet. “Well, the point of no return is coming, Danger. There’s no time for me to waste on your stupid acts.” Oscura said to herself, out loud. This was enough for the drenched Danger to hear. “What stupid acts, Oscura?” Oscura gasped and her anger was flowing. “Like being when 10 meters away from me, making me sick… like you always do?” Oscura replied. “There is a reason for this, Oscura.” Danger interjected. “You’ve been mind-controling Legion of Speedfreak member and turning their mindsets into yours. Ruthless, barbaric, destructive, hatred of me. Doesn’t that ring any bells to you?” Oscura growled at this. “Sonata Dusk was one of them. You had to urge to send two of own members to hunt down her down and make become one of your own.” Danger continued. “You even interrogated the shit out of her to get as much info as possible for your own gain. What led to this perpetual cycle of madness anyway?” “Stop it, Danger! You’re not making it any better me!” Oscura shouted at him. “Let me tell you.” Danger said, beginning his story. “You never liked your mother do you?” “Stop!” Oscura screamed in a crying fashion. “If you hadn’t have slapped the wall, by my doing of course, in that oval stock race over a decade ago… I would’ve congratulated your victory and we would become friends.” Danger continued. “You ruined my race, Danger!” Oscura sobbed. “You caused my mother to leave me for good. YOU’RE THE CAUSE OF IT!” “But wasn’t that what you wanted, Oscura?!” Danger voice became slightly more hostile. “I wanted to win that race as much you did. But you had to block me at the one opportunity I had at overtaking you.” Oscura wept more because of what Danger said. “Here you are now, not sheltered from the rain, tears flowing your cheeks and I’m relishing the moment to see you on your knees.” Danger joked. Then a second later, he turned into his hostile tone of voice with Oscura sobbing “You live a sad life, you realise that. You rely on your own sisters and relatives from different families to keep you cozy. Well, me and Rainbow are planning to have kids one day… and I’ll be damned if I have to raise them in a hellscape such as Oscura City. You’re getting sick, Oscura. Sick and tried of being tortured by someone who you despise for years. But… like I said before… I enjoy doing it.” “Get away from me, please!” Oscura sobbed.” “What’s that Oscura, wanting to discuss to inevitable surrender?” Danger teased. “I’m all ears on that.” Oscura quickly grabbed Danger and both of them fell to the floor. “I’ve had enough of the false charade of your shit, Danger. I will kill you this, belive me I will.” Oscura venomously spat out, with tears still falling her cheeks. “But who are you going to enact your evil rhetoric on if you-“ Danger asked before being punched in the face. Seven times and twice on the chest “I will find a way.” Oscura said before grabbing Danger’s chin. “Now listen here. You are forbidden to enter Oscura City and if I catch you within a foot of the entrance, Oscura City will be the last city you visit because you’ll be dead. While Oscura was holding him, Danger grabbed Oscura’s Desert Eagle and shot her on the arm she grabbed his neck. “ARRGGHHHH!” Oscura screamed, clench her arm. “We’re even now!” “HOW THE FUCK ARE WE EVEN, DANGER! I PUNCHED YOU IN THE FACE AND YOU SHOT ME, HOW ARE WE EVEN! YOU BASTARD, I’LL KILL YOU!” Oscura screamed. As Oscura got up, Danger punched her head as some payback to when she punched him back in Danger City, knocking her out cold. “Well, I guess that’s makes up for it, Oscura . But let me tell you this, I’m slightly ahead of you.” Danger stated while squating down. 10 seconds later, he activated the portal and headed back to the Penthouse Suite.
Chapter 24 - The Meeting of the TriumvirateView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 24 - The Meeting of the TriumvirateWhile Danger re-entered thorough the portal in a less fresh state than he originally was, Aria, Rusalka and Rainbow were in Rusalka’s quarters, going over what Danger had sent her before he knocked out Oscura. “How is Oscura doing all of this? It’s just Danger she wants to kill and… she been doing a bad job at it. Even though her tech Is awesome but it has a lame name. If I had the file on the hard drive I would called it ‘Dragontank’. Seriously?!” Rainbow said. “I will conceed that… ‘Drachenpanzer’ does sound a bit badass.” Crimsonia confessed. “But… she needs to be a bit more creative when she names her toys. Like us for example. I can imagine that Applejack would be the sane of all us. Speaking of… where is Applejack?” Crimsonia looked around the room but she couldn’t find Applejack, even in the corridor. “Crimsonia, I know where she is.” Aria announced. “You do?” “While Danger was confronting Oscura, Sonic discovered two more abandoned Alliance of Extreme Darkness Vehicle Production Plants. One of them is 23 miles north of Vesperis, right on the far reaches of our territorial grasp on Aeris. The other is deep into Oscura’s doorstep and I asked Hatsune to infiltrate that while Applejack was at the one near Vesperis.” Aria explained. “I wonder how Danger’s doing?” Rainbow said, thinking about her best friend. “When he went through the portal, he did look a little beat up but nothing too extreme, Sonic, Akula and Viral are having a discussion with him now. He took him to one of the medical rooms where a Rejuvenation Chamber restored him to his previous form… before he was punched by Oscura… nine times.” Aria replied to Rainbow’s concern. “I wouldn’t worry too much about him, Rainbow.” Crimsonia said, putting an hand on Rainbow’s shoulder. “Besides… he’s Danger. He can bounce back and give Oscura a punch or two.” “But Danger’s my friend.” Rainbow replied. “I’ve seen what Oscura did to him, in both Paradise City and here in Danger City. I thought back in the other world that the likes of Cozy Glow, Chrysalis, Tirek, Discord, Grogar and many other villains I’ve witnessed in the past were evil. But… Oscura…” “Oscura’s what?” Rainbow took a deep breath. “Oscura’s more powerful than we thought… and more ruthless than any of them. Surely she must be more brain-dead than ever.” Rainbow finished. “Her family members are not as powerful as you might imagine, though… but I heard for Jasmine Spark that… Zephyr Galaxia is just as powerful as Oscura.” Aria stated. “What do you mean by that?” Rusalka asked. “Well… from what Danger told me yesterday, that Zephyr Galaxia doesn’t have Galaxia blood within her. Nor is she related in any way. But she is entire backbone of the Army of Eternal Darkness. She has the power to disintegrate anything we got.” Aria explained. “When will they strike?” Rainbow asked, still in shock over what Oscura did to Danger. “We don’t know at the moment… but with Danger shooting Oscura’s arm and punching her face… it will bide us more time to build our defenses.” Aria replied. While Aria, Rainbow and Rusalka were still in their own conundrum, Danger, Sonic, Akula and Viral were in the main control room after Danger took a trip to a Rejuvenation Chamber. When he got out, he was his previous self, before being punched multiples due to Oscura’s rage. “You did the right decision to go through to Oscura but… why would she use this much aggression on you?” Sonic asked Danger. “It’s simple, to be honest with you, Sonic.” Danger began. “She kept telling me, in her usual tone of voice that is, that she think that her race was ruined because I put her into a wall at about… 80 or 90 miles an hour, something like that. “You said that like you didn’t know.” Viral stated. “To be honest with you, V, I wasn’t paying any amount of attention to the tachometer and was more focused on Oscura’s rear-left panel.” Danger confessed. “Thought as much.” “Anyways… if I hadn’t committed a motorsport crime, in Oscura’s dogma of stupidity, I would have became friends with her and sprayed her anything within an arm’s distance.” Danger continued. “But I had to do it to her and….” “She resorted to violence?” Sonic asked. “Exactly within those lines and… it’s basically a dagger that’s firmly inside my heart and I can’t yank it out a conventional way and now… she turned the sky blood red… practically forever.” Danger replied. Within moments, Akula thought of something. “Danger, I don’t think you have to endure the horrors of this crimson sky for eternity.” Akula announced. “Why’s that?” Danger asked. “While you were getting assaulted by Oscura, me and Viral had done some looking into the crimson sun. I even had asked one of… you know the one that has Twilight and Starlight-style hair with-“ Akula explained. “Jasmine Spark?” “How did you know that?” “I saw her before I got punched in face about 7 times.” Danger replied. “Anyways, Jasmine pointed out that the crimson sun is created by a machine that can fire a red beam without hitting the sun. This would cause the sky to turn red like what happened a few days. But we also found out that it’s not permanent.” Akula continued. “Does that mean it can be turned off at any point?” Viral asked. “Not like instantly, V.” Akula replied. “The machine can’t override once it’s activated and… it’s to be demolished for the sky to reset itself. “Would about 100 rounds from Danger’s Scorpion be enough to destroy it.” Sonic asked. “I don’t think so and I think we should waste bullets, because of how strong Oscura’s technology is… small arms fire won’t do jack shit.” Akula replied. Danger then left the room to get something from the arms storage rooms which brought curiosity to Viral. “What’s Danger up to?” Viral asked, facing Sonic. “I tnink he may have something that could destroy that machine of Oscura’s.” Sonic said. After a minute passes, Danger return with a custom gun he made a month before he went to Paradise City. It was similar to his Scorpion EVO, but it had a more bulky shell and the magazine was integrated into the shell. What Sonic noticed was that the gun glowed red and this was enough for him to ask Danger. “What’s that?” “This I think could destroy the Crimson Sun Controller that Oscura has. This is… Scorpion EVO 3 SF-LSR Carbine.” Danger announced. “What does all that mean?” Viral said, puzzled. “The LSR in the title means that it shoots lasers… 80 to be exact. I can either fire one at a time, four laser burst or all of the them in one go. This is where the SF part comes in or ‘Select Fire’ for the full name.” “It still counts as small arms fire, Danger.” Akula stated. “That’s slightly false.” Danger denied. “Because I forgot to mention a fourth firing mode. When you hold the trigger, The barrel glows gets more brighter and it indicates that you’re powering up your shot. When you release, it fires a powerful singular shot, depending how long you held the trigger.” “OK, I guess that shut me up then.” Akula concluded, thinking that Danger always had alternate ways of creating chaos. “I’ve heard from Crimsonia that you knocked out Oscura.” Sonic said, getting onto another Oscura-related topic.” “Well, even though she punch me about nine times, she kind of forgot that I took her Desert Eagle and shot her in the arm. She did scream out that she was going to kill me and I punched her in the face, knocking her out.” Danger explained. “How long for?” Viral asked. “Well it took me 6 hours for me to regain consciousness and considering I punched her quite hard… the chance it could be longer than 6 hours. Could even be 12 hours or even tomorrow.” Danger replied. “So this means we have more time prepare our forces and contact every city in Speedfreak control to aid us?” Viral asked again. “Exactly, but when she regains consciousness, Oscura’s lust for vengeance would explode off the charts.” Danger said. Two seconds later, Jasmine Spark entered the room. Jasmine’s hairstyle was similar to Twilight’s on the fringe but the tail had a Trixie-Starlight-esque curl to it. Wearing a purple shirt with a leather jacket over it, leather pants and leather boots that reached up to her knees. “I hope I’m not ruining your meeting in any way.” Jasmine said. “Far from it, Jasmine. You’re just the girl I need to speak. You three need to listen to this.” Sonic said, facing the Triumvirate. “You wouldn’t believe this, Danger.” Jasmine said. “You basically gave Oscura a nightmare she wouldn’t want to come back from.” “I imagine Oscura’s lungs committing seppuku right now.” Danger wondered.
Chapter 24b - Cyborg Satisfaction and the Second FightView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 24b - Cyborg Satisfaction and the Second Fight“What makes you say that, Danger?” Sonic asked. “Well… considering she would be in a lot of pain after regaining consciousness from the punch I dealt to her… I’m pretty sure it would be not possible to make a cybernetic arm.” Danger replied. “I can handle Oscura, but I can’t handle a cyborg version of Oscura.” Then Jasmine thought of something. “I know a cyborg, Danger,” Jasmine said, “ I haven’t really talked to her much ever since I joined the Legion. She is pretty strong… in her cybernetic form that is.” “Why’s that?” Viral asked. “Well… she had an accident about 5 years ago that caused her body… bar her neck and head… and her vital organs… to use cybernetics in order to function. The scientists and doctors said that I need to care for her as she was in a maze of metal and wires… Her head wasn’t broken… just scared… but the damage was already. I took care of her for the past 5 years and… it felt like I had a daughter… even though I’m not due for any yet.” Jasmine explained. Give yourself time… you may want to. Danger thought to himself. “How has been doing over the five years she has been in your care? Sonic asked. “She is doing well.” Jasmine replied. “Over the five years, she felt quite anxious and tense so I did everything in my power to calm and soothe her. I managed to get her into a state of euphoria and calmness that lasted for quite some time. I was there for her when she needed it the most; and I will always be there for her. It brings me great joy to know that she is safe. It is all thanks to you that she is in this good state!” Azura Dragonsfire and Blazing Lionfire enter the room. “It must really suck for her… not using her own limbs and having cybernetics to move.” Viral said, in a calm and slightly sad tone. “It can be, Viral.” Jasmine said, put her hand on Viral’s shoulder But it can also be an opportunity to be reborn as a stronger being than one was before, if one is strong enough to overcome the trials of being converted and being a cyborg. But I can attest that she is strong enough, considering she has already endured this and maintained her composure. She is a very special being indeed and I wish nothing but the best for her.” “Did she tell us about her accident?” Azura asked. “No.” Jasmine replied. “She did not outright state it, but she certainly gave indicators. I was able to observe her mannerisms and listen to her breathing, and I detected a certain state of anxiety and tension that is usually induced by stress and/or trauma. That is what prompted me to do my best to soothe her before she began to panic or experience something that would be much more painful or traumatizing.” “Why?” Akula asked, in total confusion. Jasmine let out a sigh. “The most probable reason is she did not wish to cause a potential sense of worry or fear in me, or did not wish to concern me with her internal issues.” Jasmine said. “Akula, did I tell you that I am confident that she will open up and tell me when she is ready and when she is comfortable. I shall allow her to discuss these matters when she so chooses so she does not feel pressured, or as if she has to share these matters with me. I will always be there for her whenever she needs it, however, and will not abandon her.” “I hope she gets the joys of life back to her.” Akula wondered. “Have you been managing it… since you cared for her for… half a decade.” Blazing said. “Of course, Blazey!” Jasmine replied. “I will devote everything possible for her and will never cease my efforts to ensure that she is happy, safe and content. I can do this. I will not give up for her, for she means the world to me. You can trust me to ensure her happiness and well-being, and I will be there to support, reassure and lift up her spirits anytime she needs me. I have her back.” “And ours.” Viral stated. “What happens with we decide to speak to her?” Danger asked, if it were possible. Jasmine walked to Danger. “She may be a bit nervous at first, but it is nothing a bit of warmth and gentleness cannot address. Please, feel free to speak with her. I'll help comfort her in case of any anxiety that may follow after it. She's a fragile soul, but she can handle it with a little support. She's very strong. I will be right by her side, should she need me.” Jasmine replied. Then two seconds later, after hearing the conversion, Twilight entered the room. “Do fragility and strength contradict themselves, depending on how strong she is?” Twilight asked. “They do not by themselves, Twilight. One that is fragile has experienced hardships and has a more delicate psyche, but is tough enough to endure and persevere through it while one that is strong can endure even the most tremendous of hardships and still come out at the other side. It is a fine line, as many strong people have fragile hearts, and vice versa. Both of which can be overcome if one persists and does not give up, even in the hardest of times.” Jasmine said. “I already know about that, Jasmine!” Twilight said, sternly. “My previous incarnation is the Princess of Friendship… I’m that and the Princess of Speed!” Danger and Sonic thought of something. “If there’s a Princess of Speed in this room, how come we already have an Angel of Speed… and that’s Viral?” Sonic asked Danger. “Don’t know, Sonic, to be honest with you.” Danger replied. “Can I ask, Jasmine… does your cyborg have those qualities.” Blazing said. “She does indeed, Blazey. She is fragile in that she is a sensitive and caring person. She has suffered in her life and has endured much. She is strong enough to continue forth despite the hardships and pains she underwent in her life, and is willing to press forth with her desire for a happier and better life. That is strength. A true strength within someone's heart, and one that she has in great abundance.” I was about to ask that, but I guess that’s me told! Akula thought. “Is she strong?” Blazey said. “She is strong indeed. Her being a cyborg is a testament to her strength, for she was able to overcome the trials that came with being converted and remained true to herself, retaining her sense of compassion and desire to do what is right. No amount of hardship can truly break her. Though she does have a sensitive heart, it is stronger than any metal or artificial material, for her heart is one strong with a spirit of compassion and kindness. Those who underestimate her or pity her are the ones that will see how strong she is, for she will never give up and will always push herself forth. She is a true fighter.” Jasmine said. “How sensitive?” Twilight asked, intrigued. “Her sensitivity is similar to the warmth of a loving mother's embrace. It is that kind of sensitive. A gentle, kind, caring and compassionate sensitivity that is full of love, care and concern for others. It is one full of empathy and understanding. It is one that always wishes the best for those around her. It is a true and pure sensitivity that is unlike any other in the world. She is a gentle spirit.” Jasmine said. Fluttershy, eat your heart out! Danger thought to himself. “I wonder if she’s in the HQ.” Azura said. “I can assure you she is. Her presence is not at all easy to miss, either. She's a lovely and endearing soul. She has a sensitive nature and can be a little shy, but she's strong enough to overcome her anxiety and nervousness. Her compassion and kindness are like a gentle breeze. They keep one warm and happy, and she is a warm ray of sunshine to be around! She brings me a great deal of joy and happiness because of her. She is a very loving and compassionate soul.” Jasmine said. “Why is she shy, Jasmine?” Viral asked. “She is not naturally a very talkative person. She has had troubles with speaking her own thoughts so directly for a while, a very small and cute quirk that she has. She's not shy or awkward at all in the sense of lacking confidence, she just prefers to speak softly and to listen and observe. She is fully capable of conversation, she just prefers to keep things more quiet. She's quiet, but definitely not weak or lacking in determination. She is very strong and dedicated, so much so that she is willing to put other's needs above her own.” “So… she’s like Fluttershy?” Twilight asked. “Twilight, Fluttershy is shy but she isn’t as strong as this cyborg is. She basically has the same strength of a vintage Formula 1 car would have if you try to crash it.” Danger said. Twilight approaches Danger, with a stern look on her face. “Sorry Twilight… it was something I need to get of my chest.” Danger apologized. “Anyway, Jasmine, Danger could talk to her, he’s a talkative person.” Sonic said. Danger rolled his eyes in disapproval. “Indeed.” Jasmine said. “Danger, you're a very talkative and open person. You have no problems letting the world know exactly what is on your mind; and you're willing to speak your mind whenever you need or desire to do so. You are very comfortable and open with yourself, and you have a great amount of confidence when it comes to letting the world know what you think and feel. You have no qualms about it. I admire that.” Sonic, do you wanted to be cremated or buried at sea? Danger thought to himself, annoyed. Then Danger, realized something. “Jasmine, did her parents realize she had became a cyborg,” he asked, surely this must have been heartbreaking for her parents and even her brothers or sisters.” Jasmine sighed. “Unfortunately, they were unwilling to see the value in their daughter,” she said, “they were too blinded by the notion that she was a cyborg that they could not recognize their daughter's amazing abilities and strength within her. Because of this, they were unable to recognize the truth of her worth, and their narrow-mindedness is what caused them to fail to recognize the true values and ability of their own flesh and blood. Their inability to see past what they perceived as a human becoming a cyborg is what ultimately caused them to abandon her.” “She was abandoned?” Viral said, in shock. “Yes. They did not see the worth in their daughter, and instead of giving her comfort and love and care and compassion, they were only able to treat her with hate and disrespect and disdain, making her feel as if she was a burden on everyone around her. It was this that caused her to feel less than everyone else, and this is what made her feel so much pain.” Jasmine continued. “That sucks so… bad like getting killed by Oscura bad!” Azura said. Jasmine sighed as a tear flowed from her eye. “I know... It is incredibly sad! It must have been very painful and tragic for someone to have to go through their whole life hating themselves for something that was never their fault or choice. But I promise you that she will be loved and cared for and supported from hereon forward. And we will give her everything she needs. We will not disappoint her, and we won't ever leave her behind, we will never give up on her. I will be with her every step of the way. She's a precious soul worth protecting and ensuring her comfort and happiness at all costs.” “I'm sure all of us could talk to her as... well she is your friend now.” Blazing said. “You're definitely correct, Blazey.” Jasmine agreed. “I am sure Purity Radiance would enjoy chatting with you as well. She is a friendly soul, despite her difficulties in opening up a little. You seem like a very friendly and open person, so I have no doubt in my mind that you and her will be good friends if she gets comfortable enough to open up to others. She may be shy at first, but once she grows accustomed to someone, she is one to be cherished and protected. She is precious, and I am very proud to call her a friend, and my friend!” Blazing felt her shirt ripple in a gust of wind and then… Danger vanished. “Danger’s gone!” Viral exclaimed. “Is Oscura using her power to bring him to somewhere unknown?!” Danger looked around the area to find anyone he could talk to. Then… Oscura appeared. Her arm clad in bandages and supported in a sling. Her face was twisted with anger. “You’re going down, Dean!” Oscura sneered, holding onto her arm. “I see you got fixed up, Oscura.” Danger said, looking at her sling. “SHUT UP!” Oscura shouted, “I know what you did to me while I was unconscious!” “What?” Danger asked. “You punched in the face and you shot me in the arm! I will kill you for this, Dean!” Oscura spat out. “What with your arm? No way!” Danger said. “YOU! YOU'RE THE MAN WHO CAUSED ALL THIS PAIN AND SUFFERING TO ME! HOW DARE YOU?! I AM THE EMPERESS OF THE EVIDER- cough Eternal Darkness! You made me into a monster!” Oscura shouted before pausing for breath. “What the…” Danger said to himself. Oscura starts to punch Danger in the face. "How does it feel, to be defeated by your own enemy?” Oscura asked. “You're nothing but a bully, and your time is up!” Danger breathes. “When I shot you in the arm, I should have aimed for your head!” Danger said… trying to ignore his pain. Oscura grins. "You are gonna pay for your brutality, Danger Dean. We are going to settle this once and for all right here, right now.” Before she could fire a bolt of electricity at Danger, Danger punches her in face. "OWWWW!!” Oscura screamed in pain. “ You've been working on your punches while I was at the hospital, I see. You think you can beat me, Dean, but you're underestimating my power. I will not stay down, and I will not quit until I have destroyed you and your pathetic legion of crime for what you've done to me and my people! “Your people?” Danger scoffed. “Scoff all you like, Danger!” Oscura sneered. “But when I have a large enough following, I will be able to lead them into a war against you, and your legion will fall by our righteous hands!! That's just something for you to think about after I kick the living shit out of your body!” Oscura lunges at Danger and punches him in the gut. “How do you like that, Dean?!” Oscura asked. “I've had enough of this false charade, Oscura... The Legion of Speedfreaks will destroy the Alliance of Extreme Darkness!” Danger said, getting up. "And then what?” Oscura asked. “What happens to you and your legion after that? If you destroy us, your group will have no one left to fight, and your legion will crumble to dust and ashes. You should have known better than to mess with me, Danger Dean. I. AM. THE. NIGHT. AND. THE. DARKNESS!!" Oscura tries to punch Danger Dean with her right hand, but the punch is too weak to do any damage. “You win, Dean. For now...” Oscura said. She was too weak to fight Danger. “Till we meet again… when the you see the flag of the Legion of Speedfreaks flying proudly over Oscura City.” Danger says as he teleports to the Headquarters. Oscura smirks at Danger as he leaves. "The day that your flags fly in Oscura City is the day that the Alliance of Extreme Darkness and its people have fallen. But I will never allow that to happen, because I am Oscura Galaxia, the heroine of Oscura City!!! And you better remember that when you come back to town with your legion of Speedfreaks." She said as she walks back to Oscura City. "Don't celebrate too soon. The alliance will be back to overthrow you one day."
Chapter 24c - Rage From WithinView OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 24c - Rage From WithinAfter Danger got back into the Headquarters, he was teleported a few seconds later back to the same location and this time… Anastasia Galaxia was controlling the portal. Anastasia had a look of hatred at Danger for shooting Oscura in the arm. “Hello Danger, do you really think you could teleport back to your pathetic team like? I think absolutely think not!” Anastasia said. “Hello Anastasia.” Danger greeted back. “Remember me?” “I sure do Dean, you are my arch nemesis, a dark reflection of everything about me I hate. You and your legion of Speedfreaks have plagued the lands of Aeris for far too long. You will not break us, you cannot break us. The darkness shall triumph in my sisters name and with my own hand I will be the one to send you into the abyss. I am going to find you and put you out of your misery Dean. It is not a question of if, only when. Mark my words.” Anastasia stated, sternly. “With what? A marker pen?” Danger asking, jokingly. This made Anastasia a little bit mad. “Don't mock me Dean. How many of your precious Speedfreaks have fallen in battle to me in the past? How many more will be cut down? I am a warrior and I am trained in the art of combat. You have grown complacent, comfortable in the knowledge you have not faced an enemy like me.” Anastasia said as her eyes flared in red. “It is not fear that I invoke in your heart, Dean. It is a deep, deep sense of dread.” “You're just an Alliance member with a loyalty to Oscura!” Danger scoffed. “What would you know about loyalty Dean? You are a loner. Without my sisters Oscura and Tenebrisa I am still more than a match for you Dean. I live and breathe the darkness. You will be defeated Dean. I am watching you, I am tracking you and I am coming after you. Be scared Dean. Be very, very scared.” Anastasia said, in anger. “Your words of denial are all but an admission, Dean. You WILL be scared once you see me, once you finally see my hand close around your neck. I am not like all those you have faced in battle before. You will know fear. It will consume you and all you will hear is my laughter, ringing through your mind and into your soul. Mark my words Dean. My words are a promise. They are the threat of the shadows.” “Don’t give me that… gutter-press claptrap, Anastasia!” Danger said, angrily. “My words are neither gutter-press nor claptrap. They are as real as the blade in my hand and the darkness all around us. You will fall Dean.” Anastasia said, reminding him of his own demise. Anastasia's laughter echoes out to a chorus of shadows. “You know something, Anastasia? I don't really cry... Oscura does that all the time... for last decade.” Danger said. Anastasia’s eyes flare with anger. “We do not talk about my sister Oscura. She went mad from the despair of your existence. Her mind has been forever poisoned by a sense of your evil, a taste of your darkness and a stain upon her soul.” Anastasia snapped before her eyes become bloodshot. “You have ruined my sister Dean and I will not forgive you. You. Have. Ruined. My. Sister!” Then Anastasia realizes that Danger shot her arm. “I WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER FOR WHAT YOU DID TO HER DEAN! I WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER FOR WHAT YOU DID TO MY SISTER! Your days of terrorizing the Galaxy of Light are coming to an end Dean. The darkness is rising and it comes in my form, and this time you will pay for your crimes. You will fall, Danger. You. Will. Fall!” Anastasia screams at the top of lungs. She is crazy! Danger said to himself. “Very, very, very far Dean!” Anastasia continued. “You will fall into an abyss that will swallow you whole. As you fall you will cry and scream, cry and scream to your sisters and your legion for help, but there will be none for you.” “I don’t even have a sister!” Danger said, interrupting her. “Then your cries for help will be even more futile Dean. I will be there to laugh as I watch you fall, my laughter echoing out and into the darkness as your screams of torment grow quieter and quieter, and then you will be gone from Aeris, gone for good. My name will be the last thing you ever hear as you drift into the abyss, the final thing you see before you fall into nothing.” Then Anastasia notices that Danger doesn’t have a sister. “So you claim you have no sister.” Anastasia said after realizing Danger doesn’t have a sister. “But your lies are of no concern to me. I am the one who will deliver your end, Dean. In my sisters name I will do it. And in my name you shall learn what fear is, what pain is and what the true power of the darkness can make you. The galaxy will know me as Anastasia the Shadow. One who is feared and respected and worshipped. You will know me as your destroyer and the one who took you and your pitiful existence and put it out of its misery once and for all.” Danger sighed. “Anastasia the Loser more like.” Danger said, defeated. “How DARE you! How DARE you!” Anastasia screamed. Anastasia's lips curls into a snarl. She steps closer so her face is inches away from Danger’s, so close she can see the sweat of his brow, the fear in his eyes and smell the scent of danger. She stares at him, a menacing shadow in the eyes, the eyes of a predator watching its prey. She leans forward and whispers into Dean's ear with a breath of darkness. She whispers one word. One word that shall send chills down his spine. “RUN!” This caught Danger off guard as if the universe is punishing him for shooting Oscura’s arm. “What do you mean... you are never turning Danger City into the shithole that is Oscura City. I mean why? Why does she have a city that is basically her mind indoctrinated to her evil rhetoric?” Danger snapped back at Anastasia. Anastasia grabs Dean by his shirt and wrenches him closer to her face so their noses are touching. She hisses her words in his face, threateningly and with such malice he can feel her hot breath on his cheek and smell the fear he feels on her breath. She hisses words and leans in even closer, the shadows around her rising as she speaks in a cold whisper. “I. WILL. END. YOU, Dean.” Then she lets go of Dean and storms off in furious anger. “That's 5 words but anyway.” Danger said before activating the portal back to the room where his friends were Anastasia, now quite a distance away, spins on her heel and shouts. “I AM ENDING YOU, DEAN!” As she said this, she points a finger at Dean with a furious and angry expression. She speaks in a tone that is a combination of fury and hate, the darkness rising in her shadow eyes and the darkness surrounding them. The darkness swallows her and her voice turns to a furious and hate filled shout as she speaks again. Her face a mask of fury. “IN. OSCURA’S. AND. TENEBRISA’S. NAME!!!! HAIL TO GALAXIA!” Anastasia shouted before walking back to her car, her and sped off to Oscura City. After Danger left the portal hole, Danger felt really rough. He shivered when Anastasia said she was going to end him and he felt that the whole territories with the Alliance of Extreme Darkness’ control… was at war with him. He began to realize that the he wasn’t at war with just Oscura… he was at war with the whole of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness. You know, of all the shit I endured in my life, that’s gotta be the most! Danger thought to himself. What does she mean by ‘terrorizing the Galaxy of Light’? She must be either super drunk or psychotic or even delusional… then again, she must be all three of them in one bastardized form of a sister of Oscura After Danger refreshed himself in the Rejuvenation Chamber for the second time, he headed to the Penthouse suite to reflect on Anastasia’s delusions. After a long while, Sonic and Aria entered the room. “Hey, buddy, you’ve been gone for a long time, what happened?” Sonic asked. Danger sighed. “Anastasia thinks I’ve been causing terrorism on the Galaxy of Light… but I know for a damn fact I haven’t. What kind of terminal psychological defect do you have to have to be that delusional?” Danger hissed in the direction of not to his friends, but to the Galaxia family in general. “Sorry, I know I shouldn’t act like I’m flying of the handle but I’m literally on the verge of losing my mind over this!” Aria shrugged. “You have very right to, Danger. I mean like, not just Oscura, but it’s also Anastasia, Tenebrisa, even Iris’ evil sister, Dahlia needs their brains examined and put in a mental asylum.” Aria claimed. “Why does the Alliance of Extreme Darkness have to be this way?” Sonic asked, stressing out. “We can’t use Fluttershy’s tactic of talking to them, we are Speedfreak Legionaries, for Celestia’s sake! If it’s Danger City Oscura’s at war with, then she is basically at war with Equestria too!” Aria looked at Sonic with a skeptical look. “Are you sure about this, Sonic?” Aria asked before sighing. “While Danger had been victimized by Anastasia, Akula went to Chrysalis to convince her to stop sending her troops to someone she wasn’t even at war with. I know Danger and V are wondering where AK is but… I know Danger would respect what Akula’s doing… I told him to take the AK98 Danger made for him before he departed for Chrysalis’ safety. So… I don’t think we should travel 100 miles to a city that is heavily guarded. Especially with the Oscuraguard and the Oscura Monitor prowling the streets 24/7. We need a plan… and… I don’t want to be that kind of person but… we need one now.” Danger looked at Aria with concern. “Aria, we have plenty of time to prepare our attack on Oscura City and… I agree with Sonic on this… the Oscuraguard and Oscura Monitor should not deter us from getting into Oscura City and disable the controls of the Oscura Monitor. However, there could be thousands if not millions of Oscuraguard troops, prowling the streets enforcing their rhetoric and Oscura’s dogma everywhere they go.” Sonic then thought of something. “You know, Danger, I’m starting to think Oscura may not be the same person she was over a decade ago.” Sonic thought. “I’m not saying I’m a psychiatrist, which I’m not… but ever since Iris told us about the existence of her twin sister and her… how can I put this? ‘Ideas’ that she might have if Danger City fell to her forces.” Aria then looked at Sonic, shocked. “You mean…” Sonic nodded. “Yes, if Dahlia wants her vision for her so-called ‘Empire of Aeris’ she would turn Danger City into a smoke-filled, industrial hell-scape where the populace would be ordered to make Oscuragewehrs till the spend their last breath.” Danger eyes blinked in fear. “Twilight’s right, she’s more evil than Oscura.” Danger exclaimed. “I’m starting to think that Dahlia is the leader of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness and not Oscura. I know this might sound like a unexpected move but… I’m gonna have to talk to Oscura.” Both Aria and Sonic looked at Danger. “What do you mean by… you talking to her, you’re gonna get your face made into a paper ball and thrown in the trash,” Sonic warned Danger. Danger placed a hand on Sonic’s shoulder. “Don’t worry about me, Sonic, if I do end up not seeing the next crimson dawn, I’ll make you lead the Legion of Speedfreaks to victory.” Danger then went out of the room.
Chapter 21a - Building and Testing the DSR 5250X Project, DGR21 Iskur X and the VRL5000 Project 24View OnlineThe Battle of Danger City Part Two - World on FireChapter 21a - Building and Testing the DSR 5250X Project, DGR21 Iskur X and the VRL5000 Project 24“Danger, can we PLEASE get to the topic of Oscura’s forces please, cause you’re talking about prisoners and I’m talking about the cars that they use.” Twilight reminded him in a death glare. It was at that moment Danger realised something. “Akula, come with me to the underground car park. I’ve got something to show you, including Viral.” Danger asked both his fellow Triumvirate members “Is it that car idea I requested to you?” Akula asked. “Pretty much, I created it with Aria and Beatrice Radiance before the meeting.” Danger replied. “Who’s Beatrice Radiance?” Viral asked. “One of my friends, Viral.” Rusalka said. “I met her during a race at Formula Equestria in 2012. She was racing in for an underdeveloped team called Ice Storm GP, while I was racing with McLaren. She was hinting for the next season that she would join McLaren to sort of… tactically getting her skills up to the mountain top.” Twilight just sighed in disgust. “Well I’ll see you later then, Rusalka, Rainbow and Aria?” “What’s on your mind, Danger?” Aria asked. “Me, Viral and Akula now have 400 mph cars now so… do you want to make a 400 miles per hour car that looks like a jet?” After about two seconds. Aria nodded and she headed to the door, Rainbow and Rusalka followed suit with the Speed Triumvirate following behind as they were heading to the underground car park. Twilight groaned as she thought Danger being with Akula and Viral was becoming a bit of a problem for her. “Twilight, why are under the assumption that Danger is behaving… rather erratically.” Crimsonia asked. “I don’t know, Crimsonia. Being a Speedfreak Legionnaire is becoming more difficult than I thought.” Twilight replied. “Why did you think is hard?” Crimsonia said. “I originally though that we going to be safe from any sort of Danger, but when Oscura brought two strike forces to us, I thought-“ Twilight replied before she resorted to ‘Twilighting’. Danger City, Legion of Speedfreaks HQ, Underground Car Park, Friday 11th June 2021, 12:35 Meanwhile, the Speed Triumvirate were now on floor -6 where the cars were waiting, to the right of Danger’s new DGR21 Iskur X. The car Danger designed for Akula was the DSR 5250X Project 98, a 409 miles per hour masterpiece (to Danger’s eyes) with a Mercedes SLR McLaren front, Lamborghini Sian sides and Mercedes AMG One rear with a Le Mans style spoilers. Powering the Project 98 was a custom built 10.4 liter quad-turbocharged V16 hybrid engine that delivers a 5248 horsepower surge. The reason car is called the Project 98 is because Danger gave the car and a black and red digital camouflage paint job, teamed with a 98 decal on the doors and on the roof. Beside Akula’s car was the VRL5000 Project 24 which Danger designed for Viral. With the design taken a Ferrari FXX K Evo, an Ares Panther Progettouno and a Fittipaldi EF7 and a Le Mans rear wing. Teamed with the same in the Project 98 producing exactly 5000 horsepower and a 407 miles per hour top speed. Also with the Ferrari style number 24 in blue and orange glows in the dimly-lighted car park Akula was first to notice the Iskur X, the DSR 5250X Project 98 and the VRL5000 Project 24. He was in complete awe over Danger’s supreme knowledge of anything to cars, so was Viral for matter. She thought that the VRL5000 was meancing because of the styling of the car itself. “I see that Aria been busy.” Danger said. “What makes you think that, Dean?” Viral asked. “By seeing the DGR16 to 21 parked in a nice row, I think she needs a good rest after that.” Danger replied. “Though I’m not sure about that, Dean. Because of what Oscura has up her sleeve.” Akula said in uncertainty. “Why?” Danger asked. “I think that before the meeting Hatsune Soulblitz told me that they have a new member in the mix, by the name of Zephyr Galaxia.” Akula said. Danger then remembered something, the time where he dueled Zephyr Galaxia at Celestia Borealis a few years ago, which may been the cause of Zephyr becoming a cyborg. “Yeah, I remember her.” Danger said, sarcastically. “Do you?” Akula asked. “Care to share with me and Viral.” “Fondly.” Danger replied before clearly his throat. “Me and Rainbow on a flight to the sky city of Celestia Borealis back in 2016 and on the jet, we found a girl that was wearing a black and red ‘Oscura City’ shirt with a black leather jacket, black leggings and shoes that look like Rainbow’s but black and red. When we got of at Celestia Borealis International, she was following us like if she was one of my 975 million fans. But judging the ‘Oscura City’ shirt, I had an inkling that she wasn’t one. She, not being contempt with theory, directed me to a room full of empty cells with nobody else in the room and then… she pulled a gun, similar to my Beretta 93R, only mine’s modified and Chandra Doomblade’s wasn’t.” “What do you mean by Chandra Doomblade?” Viral asked. “That’s what was her real name.” Danger replied. “Anyways, she took me to about six feet up and before she was about the pull the trigger, I punched her. Causing her to fall down towards the energy cells. ‘She’s got some nerve trying to hold me at gunpoint’ was my remark and went back to Rainbow.” He continued. “I was completely fine afterwards, but… the same could not be said for Chandra though, she taken back to Oscura City on a ambulance helicopter and her left eye had to be replaced with a cybernetic eye. The impact with the energy cells also caused her right eye to be in a eye patch until she felt ready to take it off. Even thougn it’s been 5 years and I can’t imagine her taking it off any time. It also created a lightning bolt scar right across her left eye.” “So… how did she became Zephyr Galaxia then?” Akula wondered. “Well, she decided to train herself at in pseudo-military base 8 miles north of Oscura City, 4 months after she recovered. She was up against about 40 other cadets who were trying to become worthy members of the Alliance’s caliber. Many cadets failed, but only two outsmarted their teachers. The erstwhile, Chandra Doomblade.” Danger replied. “But what set apart from the cadets that past the test and Chandra, was her ability to severely deform any vehicle that she punches. If her power was at it’s maximum. Through 2017 to yesterday, Chandra went on a rampage, due to her power went into what seemed to be similar to when… when Oscura dragged me out of my… either my 458 Italia or my motor-home, can’t really tell… after a race at Appleopolis.” “What kind of damage did she do?” Akula asked. “She destroyed anything that wasn’t in the possession of the Alliance of Extreme Darkness, more specifically… property of any special force organization across Equestria and this continent alone, the most notable being the Legion of Speedfreaks.” Danger replied. “Over the course of 25th of September 2017 to the 10th of July of this year. She caused a damage total of… just over $3.8 billion. All in the course of nearly four years. She headed back to Oscura City to escape arrest from both the Danger City Police Department and Canterlot Royal Guard. What’s more frightening was that… she adopted the name ‘Zephyr Galaxia’ to fit her so-called ‘warrior personality’.” But then, Viral got something appear on her phone. “Hey, Akula. Someone broke into a factory.” Viral announced. “Can Danger read this to us?” Akula asked. “Sure.” Viral replied. “What does it say?” “It says… ‘Known for being one the most secure factory in the world, the Alliance of Extreme Darkness car factory number 157 was one of twenty factories left derelict due to light-scale bombing in 2018. Factory 157, located 12 miles north of a race track called Akula Autodrome, was actually looted three years after the factory laid in it’s perpetual slumber.’” Danger read before realizing, “Hold on, that’s the one me and Akula went to two weeks ago.” After about five seconds of thought, Akula realized he had a new car to try out. He got into his DSR 5250X and was heading up the garage levels to test out his new car. Danger headed to his Iskur while Viral got into her VRL5000 and followed Akula. “Did you forget about your new wheels, Akula?” Danger asked over the radio. “Kind of.” Akula replied. “Where are we heading to?” Viral said. “To the Akula Autodrom.” Akula replied. Oscura City, Alliance of Extreme Darkness HQ, Main Lounge, Friday 11th June, 2021, 12:45 While the Speed Triumvirate headed to towards the Akula Autodrom, the newly-converted Sonata was looking out of window, facing the crimson daylight. She wondering what Aria was up to. Her face was a mixture of thought processing, rage and sadness all in one. Sonata was now wearing a similar outfit to Adagio’s tailored to suit her. “Where are you, Aria. You know that the new of the Dazzlings are coming for you.” Sonata said to herself. “Either you put up a fight or give in like a coward, you are destined to be with us… one day.” Some time later, both Zephyr and Oscura had entered the room. “What’s on your mind, Sonata?” Zephyr asked. “I’m just wondering what Aria is up to. I said to myself that her destiny is with the new form of the Dazzlings.” Sonata replied. Oscura rolled her eyes. “This is why my favourite type of music sounds like a skateboard grinding on other people’s bones, while it’s rider suffers from terminal flatulence.” She said. “It’s not like she will come right this minute, Sonata. We have to play the waiting game, although I’m through with that game.” “Why that’s, Oscura?” Zephyr asked. “Because I’m fucking impatient with wanting to strangle Danger. If anyone wants to question my hatred, I will personally tailor their lungs with lead.” Oscura said in her usual angry tone. Sonata wanted to ask Oscura, but talked herself out almost instantly. “If Danger plans an strike on this city, we will make sure that will be last decision he will make.” Zephyr then said. This made Oscura a bit annoyed. “Ugh! What is your obsession with killing Danger? That’s my fucking job and my job alone!” Oscura snapped. “You hate him too. So I thought I’m might save your energy.” Zephyr said to Oscura. But suddenly, Oscura’s brain to go into the same mode when she was in the shower the day before. “I’ve been thinking, what if Danger decides to kill me? Would it mean that Danger City would rejoice my death while Oscura City mourns? I’m fearing that day more than ever.” Oscura said. “What crap are you on about, Oscura?” Sonata asked in a hostile tone. Oscura looked at Sonata with a face full of rage. “Sonata, do you think you can talk to an empress of the darkness like that?” Oscura hissed. “Remember, if you’re in the Alliance with me as the leader, you’re life is on the line. One step into the wrong, you’re dead.” “We’ll see about that, Oscura.” Sonata said as she was leaving the room. “She’s lucky for now.” Oscura said to herself. “Oh, come on Oscura!” Zephyr complained. “You let her off for saying you’ve been talking shit! Why!?” “I didn’t bring my gun with me.” Oscura replied. “The next time she questions my position or saying that I talk complete shit, that little twerp will never see the next crimson light.” “She’s not little by the fact she’s wearing the same outfit as Adagio’s.” Zephyr pointed out. “Ugh! Why does my fellow always kick when I’m already down?!” Oscura complained. “That’s the tragedy of it all, Oscura.” Zephyr said. After a long break, Oscura was becoming more and more livid each passing second, which was becoming more common to the cybernetic eye of Zephyr. She takes off her helmet and slams it onto the couch. “I don’t think you know this, Zephyr.” Oscura began as her red eyes glowed. “But some of my members… I won’t name anyone in particular, are basically dumb as fucking bricks! I even had to grasp their collars as a method of taking sense to them. “ “Am I dumb, Oscura?” Zephyr asked. “No. I only just met you yesterday, Zephyr, so I can’t make a judgment on that.” Oscura replied as she looked at her helmet. “It’s just… why do I bother with getting my… servant to anything competent, the fact that put so much blood, sweat, tears and brains to create the Army of Eternal Darkness and be powerful enough to outsmart Danger and his cronies.” She faced Zephyr, “What they lack in numbers, they make up for the main key trait that drive me to a brick wall. They are speed, agilty, manueverablity, and most importantly… agility.” “Don’t you realise, Danger is not an easy opponent, he has friends will help him defeat us. You have more family members that can carry your legacy. What do I have? Nothing! I am the only survior of an accident that wipe my birth town to the point of non-existence.” Zephyr said, as Oscura got closer to her. “Not exactly, Zephyr.” Oscura said, putting a hand on Zephyr’s left shoulder. “From I heard from my youngest sister, Leighanna Anastasia Galaxia, that one member of your family survived.” “Who?” Zephyr asked. “Lolestra Doomblade.” Oscura replied. “Where is she?” Zephyr then asked. “2 minutes before the cataclysm happen she was evacuated by air to Oscura City and… when the accident happen? I forgot.” Oscura scratched her head. “2015, 2 years before I got annihilated by Danger.” Zephyr replied. “I bet she’s living her life in luxury and… wait!” Oscura said before realizing something. “Danger annihilated you? WHEN!” “4 years ago.” Zephyr replied. Oscura was quickly on her phone and rung the British Speedfreak. Akula Autodrom, Friday 11th June, 2021, 13:00 Meanwhile, Akula, Viral and Danger lined on the start line as Akula organized a pseudo-track challenge. Danger was at a slight disadvantage due to his Iskur being the slowest, But he had MegaSport+ at his disposal so his top speed is 422 miles an hour, but Akula’s Project 98 could top 419 mph and Viral would top at the same speed. Danger has an advantage, the Iskur has a faster accelaration compared to the other two cars. But before the race started, Danger’s phone rang suddenly. It was Oscura. “Er… Akula, someone wants to talk to me.” Danger announced. “Who, Dean?” Akula asked. Danger had to lie. “Aria, I think.” “OK. I know might be private between you and Aria.” Akula said. Danger put down his radio. “What do you want now, Oscura? Your unconditional surrender?” Danger asked. “Danger, do you know someone by the name of Zephyr Galaxia, by any chance?” Oscura then asked him back. “Years ago, you mindless moron!
