The room at the top was small, and had 5 tubes across the room, which you entered, and then sealed the door of. The room was white, but there were rattling sounds, as the last two of the original infected running up the shaft. And another. Dinosaur was looking down.
"They have Cedric." said Dinosaur.
Dwarfy sighed, and turned back to control panel, which was a small stand with a few buttons and a screen.
"Right. One of us needs to stay behind. And i'm not letting anyone else sacrifice themselves. Skul, Jay, Starwarsgirl, Indy get in.
The four, instead of protesting, nodding and silently walked into the tubes, closing their eyes and sighing.
"Right. Im sending you near the Help and Suggestions forum. Take some gear." said Dwarfy, and he ran over to a shelf, as the clattering sounds of the rising infected, got louder. The doors of the tubes opened, and Dwarfy ran around giving them large gear packs with weapons, and large blasters.
"You don't have to do this." said Skul.
"I think I do." said Dwarfy, closing the door.
"Right. Dinosaur, you go too." said j-d-j.
J-d-j got in, and Dwarfy went to the machine, and pressed a button. The five users disapeared. leaving J-d-j, Alemas, and Dwarfy.
Dwarfy turned as the two infected charged in. The other two had grabbed gear and weapons, and he went and grabbed some too.
"Well, this is it guys." said Dwarfy.
"Yes, it is." said j-d-j, aiming the gun.
"Why did Skul get to go?" asked Alemas.
J-d-j broke out laughing. It was the last thing he did, as the infected suddenly appeared in the lift shaft and a spear of spam hit him and disintagrated it, and he froze and fell, becoming an unconcious infected on the ground.,
"OPEN FIRE!" yelled Dwarfy, and they both began blasting, and the lighting-like spray of the ban gun spray coursed at the two originals. One disapeared, in the middle, and siddenly, one of them grew, larger and larger, till it was hunched in the room, almost like a wild beast. He roared, and Dwarfy and Alemas were thrown back.
"Dwarfy! Get in the tube!" yelled Alemas, opening fire, sending the spam king into the wall again.
"No!" said Dwarfy.
Alemas shoved Dwarfy into a tube, and slammed it shut, pressing the lock on the side. Dwarfy fiddled wit the lock, and began shouting and slamming the door.
But Alemas couldn't press the button. He couldn't stop blasting, and thats whe Cedric came out, a taller infected. He saw Alemas, and Alemas yelled. The infected King charged, but Cedric slammed into him, into the wall. Alemas ran over, and threw himself onto the button, and Dwarfy disapeared. There were crashed, and more crashed, and Alemas turned and saw Cedric against the wall, with the infected King, William, roaring at him,
"Goodbye." said Alemas, and he closed his eyes, and pointed his gun down the main shaft of the tower.
He fired.
***
The infected crowd below looked up, and saw the top of the tower explode, while two infected figures fell, and turned to dust in the air. The building crumbled, and fell, white lighting from the ban gun spreading through it. As it ecploded at the base, a large explosion of the white lighting shot out, disintagrating all of the infected there, and spread, destroying the entire forum, along with half the infected,
Alemas' last act of banning himself had saved half the boards. And now, the other six had to go do their job.
Skul moaned, and rolled over. His eyes felt like they were glued shut. He coughed, and sat up, slowly. His hands felt the soft ground, and grass, and he knew where he was.
Tearing his eyes open, he saw what used to be the edge of camp MB. Now the trees were broken and sickly, and much of the dirt had fallen away into sinkholes, and the entire place seemed to be glowing with spam. This is what they'd done when they'd been running away. The infected followed, leaving destruction in its wake.
And to his other side, the drop to the Spam Fortress. It had grown, and there were red flashes of light from the center, where MKM was contained.
He heard a groan, and turned to see Starwarsgirl sitting up too. She looked around startled, her eyes red. He wondered if his eyes were red too.
"Back here again." said Starwarsgirl, as Indy, Dinosaur, and JayZX too looked up, looking shocked, confused, and slightly frustrated,
"Jd, Alemas, and Dwarfy?" asked Dinosaur, still looking confused.
"No." said Skul, watching them sadly.
Indy looked around and saw where they were.
"No." he said, and slammed his head into the ground.
"Guys, look." said Starwarsgirl, and the others all turned. The number above the Fortress where far different. They now read "4506" and "7."
"SEVEN users?" screamed Starwarsgirl, "That means that two of the others are all OK!"
At that point, a burst of light opened and Dwarfy fell near them, unconcious. There were no others.
"DWARFY!" screamed Starwarsgirl and JayZX, and they all stood around him, After a few minutes, he got up.
"Dwarfy!"
"What happened?"
"Where are the other-"
"Shh!!" yelled Skul.
They all looked down at the now silent mass of infected, simply waiting.
"Ok. Jdj and Alemas are gone. I don't know what happened, but it looked like Alemas was about to destroy the tower. Which is why it appears half the infected are gone. It exploded at the core." said Dwarfy.
"OK. How are we supposed to free MKM?" asked Skul.
"Well, we have weapons." said Starwarsgirl, motioning to their abandoned weapon packs.
"Right. Now, we get in, we blow up the MKM Cage, we free her, we improvise." said Indy.
"We improvise?"
"Well, MKM can do something then." said Indy.
"Ok...." said Starwarsgirl unsurely.
"WAIT-If the othet two are both infected, that means there is one user other than us!" said Skul.
Dwarfy looked at the healthy users.
"Actually," said a voice behind them.
"There are four." said another.
They all stared at the counter, which has gone up to 11.
"No, still someone else." said Indy, seeminlg ignoring the new arrivals. Everyone else spun, though. Standing in front of them were four users. Marcel, Spiderschwein, Justus, and Caballek.
"You must be the last of the german users?" asked Skul.
The first group, Marcel, JayZX and Spider were going to be sneaking into the HQ, smashing apart as much of the army and infected as they could, then breaking out. It was the best they could think of, it would also prove a distraction for the third group.
The second group would be staying up on the hill, and opening fire with the blasters into the crowd, and then drawing the remaining outside infected into the forest, if they survived that long. Standing at the top now were Justus, Cabbelek, and Dinosaur. They were all looking grim, as they would be being chased by over one thousand infected if the plan went well. If it didn't go that long, they'd be chased by far more.
And the final group, Dwarfy, Indy, Starwarsgirl, and Skul were getting in and freeing MKM, which would hopefully be easy as the others would be drawing the others attention. And maybe MKM would be stronger now, as half the infected were gone.
And then, on the stroke of midnight, the lighting like flashes from the ban guns slashed through the crowd, and the battle began.
"Well, at least the plans working." said Dinosaur.
The army of the infected was charging up the path at them. They were walking backwards quickly, letting out rays of lighting at them. The world had darkened, and the spam was glowing in the darkness, and so were the infected. The MB forum had become dark, too. Red lights were still flashing, causing a scary effect around the forum.
Then the cliff face collapsed.
The rock disapeared, and suddenly the space around the Help and Suggestions forums was a tube, and Dinosaur, Justus, and Cabbalek were falling. They sped by the army, which too was falling, and rolled across the ground, yelling, as the sound of the infected too thundering down distracted them.
"Here we go." said Dinosaur, blasting through the infected armies. They were sticking together, and the infected were realing back, being slowly, bit by bit, banned.
There was a fizzle, and instantly their guns stopped firing, and instantly spam became leaking out. Dinosuar and Justus yelped and dropped theirs, but Cabbalek only realized what was happening too late. The spam rolled off him, and began spreading across his body, solidifying on him. he could no longer move his hands, and he fell, the spam spreading across him. Now his face was the only spam free part, and the coating covered him, and his face was etched onto the spam layer like a statue. He froze, and was still, still living but fearing inside the net.
"Run!" screamed Dinosaur, and Dinosaur and Justus ran past the army of the infected, shocked, and being followed, they ran for the fortress.
"Well, that was a mistake." said JayZX, standing on the walkway on one part of the fortress. Marcel and Spider were standing back to back, blasting at the infected approaching from both sides.
They had broken in, and began blasting apart the fortress. The infected, had, of course, charged after them. And now they were trapped on a wide walkway and were being closed in on. The walkway sat between two towers, which were to the west of the main center of the fortress.
"Brick." muttered Marcel, as his blaster stopped firing the lightning. In shook and didn't fire. Marcel sighed, and hurled it into the crowds of the infected. He looked up, seeing they were now in the middle of a pit, and saw Justus and the others falling.
Then his blaster exploded. The lighting tore apart half the walkway, causing it to collapse on one side, and Spider fell into the area, just being missed by Marcel's hand, and he disapeared.
"NO!" yelled Marcel.
JayZX was too busy focusing on the enemies charging in too notice. With a spark, her gun broke,and she hurled it ahead, and it too exploded. The walkway was now collapsed on both sides, leaving the reamining infected unable to get across, And leaving JayZX and Marcel stranded, on a platform int he air, only held up by a small pillar. The platform was already tipping, and the infected were watching exitedly.
Uh Oh." said JayZX. She heard a panting, and she spun to see Marcel breathing heavily as the darkness spread to his eyes, and he stood up.
"Marcel...please, you don't have to do this." said JayZX.
Marcel roared, showing his teeth, and leaped at her. JayZX shot him with his Ban Gun, and Marcel fell, and slid across the platform, now on his hands and legs, snarling, and he sat back up. He crawled back away from her, snarling, to the edge of the platform.
"Marcel..." she said, and Marcel swung off the platform, disapearing. The other infected jeered and laughed, and she walked over to the edge, past the rubble, looking down. It was tipping in her direction now, she looked down. She couldn't see Marcel.
"Where are you?" she asked, and heard a noise behind her.
She spun to see Marcel flipping back over the other side, having climbed underneath, and ramming into her, landing on top of her. He grabbed her, and then let go, jumping back up, the damage done. The infection in her.
As the darkness spread through her, she stood up. Groaning, and moaning as it passed through her, she brought up her ban gun.
"Bye, Marcel." she said, and instead of blasting him, she blasted the platform beneath them. a hole appeared, just where the pillar met the platform, and the platform fell, and JayZX and Marcel fell, down to the ground,
"I think its through here." said Skul, standing on one side of the large dark iron gates that led to the center courtyard of the fortress. There was an explosion, and Starwarsgirl stared up, here eyes worried.
"They'll be fine." said Skul, sounding unsure.
Dwarfy and Indy, on the other side, stared at the door, and then Indy nodded. He walked forward, followed by Skul and Skul kicked it. To his suprise, it slowly opened, creaking. They all pulled out their blasters, staroing worriedly as it opened. Inside, was a sight they hadn't expected.
The red lights weren't them torturing or attacking MKM. It was MKM trying to break free. She was not contained, but she was slashing and sending pure red ban missiles everywhere, hitting the infected, but they weren't strong-they didn't smasht the infected, only kept them away.
"MKM!" yelled Skul, and the others ran forward. MKM glanced up and smiled, and spun, sending some infceted flying with another explosion of red light. There was a loud explosion, and Skul turned around to see one of the walkways collapsing.
"Was that one of them?" asked Starwarsgirl worriedly, ducking in the darkness as a flash of red light lit up her face. An infected flew over her head, its arms flailing, but it missed her.
The doors, still open, suddenly opened more as two users ran in. Skul raised his blaster, but it was Justus and Dinosaur.
"Infected!" they yelled, and Skul stared through the open doors to see the entire remaining army of the infected charging through at them. Starwarsgirl raised her blaster, and sent lightning through.
"Close the doors!" she yelled, and Dinsoaur and Justus did as she said. They pushed an iron bar down, which ahd obviously been used to keep it shut. The sound of the infected pounding it was distracting, and dents began appearing in it.
"This isn't good." said Skul, as another dent appeared.
"It'll hold them for a while. Now free MKM!" yelled Dwarfy.
MKM, obviously encouraged, had destroyed most of the infected. The numbers above the HQ were still there, and read 1435 for the infected, which was lowering slowly as MKM destroyed the last infected in the room. But she was stil weak, and looked sickly, but she was doing it.
The other number read 7.
"I wonder who else is out there.' asked Skul.
The courtyard was now almost empty, but the black iron walls with the windows were oddly still, as if they were staring. The last few infected were either running, or were the strongest ones left. The other infected were still pounding on the door, which wasn't going to hold much longer. The last few users were now taking on the last infected in the courtyard.
Skul was taking on Gslover, who was an extremely strong infected. They were slashing and batting at eachother, Gslover trying to grab Skul, Skul trying to get far enough to get a decent shot at Gslover. Starwarsgirl ran over and began helping, as the infected began getting their fists through the door.
Justus was fighting LUTheGoldDigger with Dinosaur now, but LUGold was strong. A blast of spam tore up the ground at Dinosaurs feet, and Dino was sent flying.
"Dino!" yelled Justus, turning, and a blast of spam was blasted at him, freezing onto him as a large black goo, which was spreading, and soaking him. His eyes were being covered, and he was stuck in a cage of spam, which looked like a statue of him, similar to what had happened to Cabbalek.
Dinosaur was back on his feet, and saw a blaster on the ground. He didn't have time to see who's it was, but he picked it up, rage in his eyes, and fired, blast after blast, at LUGold. LUGold snarled, and continued slashing, and rays of spam began shooting at Dino, but Dino kept battling on. In one quick blast, which hit the infected LUGold in the chest, he had won. LUGold froze, and moaned, a long, beast like wail, and then fell.
Dinosaur heard a crack, and turned slowly. The casing that had formed around Justus cracked open, and the infected Justus stepped out. Only his eyes were red. Red eyed infected.
"Guys!" said Dinosaur loudly.
Dwarfy and Indy, finishing taking down the infected Keplers with regret, turned slowly. The red-eyes infected stared at everyone their silently, and then with a crash MKM smashed down the last weak infected attacking her. She too turned, as another infected behind, LEGO.minifig, ran out to busy Dwarfy and Indy. The red-eyed Justus stared at Dwarfy, and suddenly MKM froze.
"NO! DWARFY! MOVE!" she yelled, and Dwarfy, turned slowly, and looked directly into the eyes of the infected Justus. A red glow, like a bursy of sunlight, came from Justus' eyes in the middle of the courtyard, and Dwarfy froze, breathed out, and collapsed. Indy grabbed Dwarfys gun and blasted the infected, and spun to stand next to Dwarfy. MKM waved her hand, and the infected Justus disapeared. MKM grunted with exertion.
"First time Ive tried a complete ban in a while..." she muttered.
Skul and Starwarsgirl finished with their infected, and pulled their Ban Blasters along, running over to Dwarfy. His eyes were closed, but a red light was pulsing out.
"Is he infected?" asked Starwarsgirl, sobbing.
"No. The red light will fill him, and then he'll simply disapear. His account gone." said MKM.
"What?" yelled Skul.
"Im sorry. Theres nothing I can do. He has no choice...this will destroy him...or...." suddenly, she froze.
"Dwarfy, log out.' said MKM.
"NO!" said Indy, "You can't log out anymore!"
"Yes you can. You jsut can't log back in. If this works, it'll stop."
"If it doesn't?" asked Skul, fearing the answer.
"Well, he'll be gone. But if we win, then I can make sure he can return. And if we lose, we'll be beyond cari-"
There was a burst of light, and Dwarfy disapeared.
"He logged out." said MKM.
Before they could continue, the iron doors blasted open, and the infected charged in.
The infected, angered and powerful, charged across the dark, glowing courtyard, climbing over the raised stone platform in the center where MKM had been standing, and came at them.
Their blasters weren't working. They pulled out any weapon they had; a few had ban swords and hammers, and charged. MKM shot cannonballs of red light into the crowd, leaving holes across the courtyard. She slashed through the crowd, not being touched, and made it to the platform, still blasting down.
"We should move!" said Starwarsgirl over the thundering of the cannonballs and the roaring infected. Dinosaur, the user closest to her, yelled out in agreement.
They both ran, the infected turning to Skul and Indy, who were back to back, slashing at the infected, but more kept coming. Indy saw them moving, and motioned. Skul nodded, and they ran, slashing at the infected in their way, dodging around them.
"Well, this is fun!" yelled Skul, jumping over a fallen infected. He reached the low wall around the courtyard, which had pillars around it. He jumped through, and knocked into Starwarsgirl.
"Oi!" she yelled, and Skul muttered an apology as Indy jumped through. A cannonball of red light slammed into the infected chasing them, causing the wall and a few small pillars to collapse. The infected began streaming in, and they began running out of the courtyard.
"Where are we going?" asked Skul, at the back, slashing at the infected who got near.
"Up!" said Starwarsgirl.
"What?" screeched Skul, overtaking Dinosaur.
They reached some stairs, and began running up. The infected charged up after them, and they ran faster. They were now lost. They reached the top, and turned. Starwarsgirl seemed to be losing hope, in the massive fortress, as they turned corner after corner being chased by the infected.
"Here!" she said, and turned, and they ran out straight onto the walkaway up above the central courtyard. It was square like the rest of the courtyard, enclosing it. The way they had come from seemed to be the only way in or out, other than jumping off. They all froze for a second, realizing that they were trapped.
"Just run!" yelled Indy, and the others followed. They made it all the way round, and the infected, who they had shook off, were now running through.
"This isn't good." said Skul, now standing, with the other three beside him, watching the infected split, coming around after them. Infected arrows began running out after them. The infected, now, having them trapped, slowed, closing in around the last corner. One shot an arrow, which slammed into Dinosaur, and he fell over the railing.
"Dinosaur!" screamed Skul, reaching for him, but he fell.
The infected had now stopped, and the remaining three froze. They were all staring into the courtyard. Skul, Indy, and Starwarsgirl and turned and looked down into the courtyard.
