Matrix charged into the burning city, with his girlfriend close behind. He paid no mind to the destruction erupting around him, and instead leaped off the ground in a sideways somersault, hurling his shield as he did. The weapon bounced off the skull of a darkling, and Matrix caught it and let it disintegrate in his hands just as quickly. He snatched his gun to his hands and opened fire on several darklings, eliminating them with a decisive prejudice.
Around them, the war raged on. Even council members were in the streets battling the previously unseen threat. All of the men, women, and even children of Cinnabar had been called to arms against the singular threat that had threatened to overtake the Vasty Deep.
A blue skinned Yoshi approached Matrix, with pistols in each hand and his shoulder holsters appropriately rigged for a quick draw. It was Syril, an old friend since his first day on Cinnabar, and a welcome sight.
“Matrix!” the Yoshi shouted over the chaos.
“Syril!” Matrix replied as he joined his old friend.
“What’s happening!?” AndrAIa asked as she looked around at the chaos.
“We don’t know,” Syril responded. “They’ve attacked in waves, but we haven’t been able to contain them!”
Matrix and the others ducked as an explosion ripped across the skies above them. Mewtwo had taken the upper hand in his own battle. It was an impressive feat, but they couldn’t concern themselves with the display.
“Where did they come from!?” Matrix demanded of his ally.
“I don’t know!” Syril admitted. “We haven’t had time to figure it out!”
“They’re digital!” AndrAIa shouted to Matrix over the commotion and chaos. “It could be the Dataverse!”
Another explosion ripped across the skies above them, and the massive, robotic creatures that battled in the skies above collapsed to the sea with a defeated shriek. Matrix, Syril, and AndrAIa watched the display in awe, silently thankful to have such a force on their side. With perfect timing, Mewtwo dropped to the ground beside them, violently swinging his hands downwards and using his telekinesis to snap the necks of the remainder of the foes around them. Matrix paid no mind to that maneuver, either, as devastating as it was. He looked back to AndrAIa.
“The Dataverse access back home,” he said aloud. “Disconnect it!”
“They’ve come from the sea,” Mewtwo’s voice boomed into their heads. “I fear that they have set up somewhere in the jungle of our small island.”
“We don’t have the forces to spare,” Syril said to his leader. “We’re maxed out as it is.”
“I’m here, now,” Matrix said. “Let me try and fine them in the woods.”
Another shriek, and more forces began to pour into town.
“As fast as you can,” Mewtwo replied, then looked to Syril and AndrAIa. “We’ll buy all the time we can.”
Matrix grabbed AndrAIa’s hands, looking her in the eyes for a moment. She nodded, and then ran off with Mewtwo and Syril. Matrix watched his friends leave for a moment, and then ran off into the jungle, as well. He would find their forward camp. He had to. His friends were counting on him.
