Fallen Stars
Mystery Thirty
Regrouping and The Plot.
(In Soot, Trows’ Territory.)
Draco looked up.
Draco: A darkness machine, huh?
Bulgogi: That’s what we were told it was called.
Draco: That reminds me of something, but….
As Draco presses a finger to his head. Trying to think hard.
Draco: I can’t remember. (!!! I remember now! …I can't tell him.) Damn.
Bulgogi looks out of the corner of his eye.
Bulgogi: Is that a normal thing?
Draco laughs a bit.
Draco: I guess, I forget things.
Bulgogi: Hm.
Draco brightens up.
Draco: Now! How many of you are there?
Bulgogi: There’s… around 100 of us.
Draco: And your special traits?
Bulgogi: Trows, our special trait is Powder Mastery.
Draco: Meaning?
Bulgogi: Our Village, Soot, is named after our trait. We can do fairy-like things with powders. Make people stronger or weaker. Anything we set our minds to.
Draco: Vega will love this.
Bulgogi: But, I’m sure it doesn’t work on humans like yourselves. The Army tried to take our products, but it didn’t work on them.
Draco (smirks): (Humans?) We can still come up with something for its usage.
Bulgogi: Hm.
Draco: Well, gather your people. After you tell them, you and I can leave.
Bulgogi: Leave?
Draco: Our base is in the Goblin’s Territory.
Bulgogi (shocked): You already have the goblins on your side?!
Draco: Yeah, Haha. My friends went to recruit other ones.
Bulgogi (impressed): You guys are committed.
Draco: Oh, don’t worry, our strategist is already coming up with something I bet.
Bulgogi: I’ll inform the town.
Draco: Alright. I’ll be at the end of the town ready to go through Slag.
Bulgogi: I will meet you there in a few!
Draco nods then walks off.
Bulgogi: Hmph. Now to muster up the courage to go against the Army.
Bulgogi walks to the center of the town. He yells out loud!
Bulgogi: All of you come out! I know you were watching!
Around 50 Trows slowly walk out of their houses, some jumping off of the roofs. A few coming out of the garbage cans!
Bulgogi (serious): Listen up! We will be taking out the Army! And we need your help!
Bulgogi looks around and all eyes are on him.
Bulgogi: I know Trows were born shy! But we can get our city back! Our wives! Our home! We just need to muster up the courage and the hope inside of us to do it!
It’s still quiet around the village, dead silent.
Bulgogi: (Just a little more juice!)
Bulgogi breathes in deeply. Then yells out.
Bulgogi (intense): WE CAN DO THIS! ONLY WITH ALL OF YOUR HELP! NOW, ARE YOU WITH ME?!
As he looks around quickly, silence is still heard throughout the area.
Bulgogi: (No… They’re...)
Galbi (strongly agrees): I’M WITH YOU, BULGOGI!!!
Yukpo (fiercely agrees): ME TOO!!!
Then, suddenly all the Trows jumped up and down cheering on, screaming they are all on board! Tears came down Bulgogi's eyes.
Bulgogi: *Sniffles* Then, Let's Do It!
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
In the background behind a building. Draco is chuckling.
Draco: Hahaha, so he got them in. Nice.
Draco walks to the end of the city waiting for Bulgogi’s arrival. After a few minutes, Bulgogi meets with Draco.
Draco: Ready?
Bulgogi: Yup!
The two start to walk, going to Slag.
**Wrath’s Location
Walking to Dust**
Stroganoff: Just you wait, Wellington!
Loaf slaps him.
Stroganoff (pain): Ow!
Loaf: *Snort* Don’t start anything there!
Stroganoff: I won’t!
Loaf getting madder.
Loaf: *Snort* Then what were you plotting?!
Stroganoff: Nothing!
Wrath (annoyed): Ah. Can you two relax? We’re coming up on Dust.
Stroganoff’s eyes light up. He rushes in.
Wrath: Oh no….
Coming into the Village running, he spots Wellington.
Stroganoff (mad): *Snort* You bastard!
Stroganoff reaches into his pocket pulling out a bomb!
Stroganoff (mad): Take this!
Wellington stands there in fear, trembling. Then electricity forms behind Stroganoff, Wrath comes out of his electricity form, and karate chops the back of Stroganoff’s neck, knocking him out cold. *Crackle* The bomb flies up, but Wrath catches it.
Wrath (relieved): Whew, He would try that.
Wellington slowly walks over to Wrath.
Wellington: Thank you for saving me.
Wrath: It was nothing.
Wellington: So you have the Hobgoblins on your side.
Wrath: Yep.
Loaf walks up.
Loaf: Long time no see, Wellington!
Wellington: Yes, I-
Loaf: Doing nice here I see.
Loaf looking around.
Wellington: (She still cuts people off.) Same old Loaf. HuHuHu.
Wrath: Have any of my friends come back yet?
Wellington: You are the first one.
Wrath (ecstatic): Yes! Recruited them first and got back first!
Wrath raised one arm in victory.
**In Slag, Knockers’ Territory**
Vega sitting on Zrazy’s porch.
Vega: (I can’t leave now. As soon as I leave, what’s stopping them from calling the Army. If Enma was here he could protect it.)
**In Dust, The Gang’s Base**
Apocalypse, Enma, and Zeus are all staring at each other gauging the other. Apocalypse charges up a Star Beam, then just suddenly stops. Joking around.
Apocalypse: (I can’t do that in this house, Haha.)
Zeus: (Yeah, don’t. They would get mad at us for destroying this house. Yaha.)
Enma’s senses perk up.
Enma: (I have to go.)
Enma with a serious face, and glowing red eyes.
Apocalypse: (Is Vega in trouble?)
Apocalypse flies above Enma.
Enma: (I don’t think so. I just know he needs me. I’m leaving.)
Zeus: (Wait! We were told to stay here!)
Enma busts through the door running off. Zeus lets out a huff.
**In Slag, Knockers’ Territory**
Jun runs up to Vega.
Jun: T-There are more people coming! From the East!
Vega stands up.
Vega: Do the same thing as last time. Don’t speak to them, just come here.
Jun: O-ok.
Jun takes off running.
Vega: They’re already sending in backup?
Vega gets his sword and goes to the end of the street.
Walking into the village…
Bulgogi: You said your friend is here?
Draco: Yeah. He went to the knockers.
Draco and Bulgogi continue walking through Slag. They spot Jun.
Draco: Yo, can you help find someone?
Jun (scared): Eck!
And Jun takes off running.
Draco: What did I say?
Bulgogi: I don’t know…
They both walk down a dark one-way road. At the end, stands a swordsman with red eyes.
Bulgogi (shook): Wh- Who is that….?!
Bulgogi starts sweating profusely. Stunned by his glare. Draco squints his eyes.
Draco: Red eyes… Vega!
Vega is shocked for a second.
Vega: Oh, Draco!
They both run toward each other and dab each other up.
Bulgogi: (He shook his hands…)
Draco (smiles): What was that?
Vega: Oh, it’s something I came up with for when these soldiers came here.
Draco: Had to kill more soldiers?
Vega: Yeah…. It was only two though. And more can come.
Bulgogi: (These two are friends…)
Bulgogi walks beside Draco.
Vega: And who is this?
Vega looks down at Bulgogi with a menacing look, as his red eyes scare Bulgogi, again.
Draco: He’s a Trow. I got them on our side.
Vega: What about the Trolls?
Draco sucks his teeth.
Draco: Tck. I’ll handle that, they didn’t want to join.
Vega: ….
Draco: But still. We have enough help. Trows’ special trait is Powder Mastery. They can boost up their people with different powders.
Vega: Hm. Knocker's trait is Speed Digging.
Draco: Mmm. We have to meet up with Wrath.
Vega: I would, but I killed soldiers here so the Army might check on them, also…
Vega leans in and whispers.
Vega: I killed one of their own. He tried to call the Army on us.
Draco nods his head, understanding.
Draco: It had to be done. I hate betrayers.
Vega: Right. So I have to stay here to keep watch.
Draco: Hmm… We might be able to come up with something.
Vega: ….
A few minutes go by, with Draco and Vega thinking of something.
Draco: Moving the base here would be a lot.
Vega: And both of us staying behind would be detrimental.
Jun, frightened, comes running to them. And falling in front of Vega and Draco.
Vega: What is it? More soldiers?
Jun is sweating and breathing heavily.
Jun (scared): N-No! I-Its an evil spirit!!
Vega lets out a huh.
Vega: An evil spirit?
Jun: It’s breathing fire too!!
Vega: Ah. Enma….
At the end of another road, Enma is scaring all the Knockers. Mouth full of fire.
Enma: (Where is Vega?!)
Alambre: What does it want?!
Enma’s spike flies wildly!!
Kamounia: Ah!!!
Alambre: What do we do!?
Vega appears behind them.
Vega: Just stand still… Enma can smell fear…
Alambre: Fear?! How do I just stop being scared?!
Draco is laughing behind Vega.
Vega: Stand down, Enma.
Enma: (....)
Enma stops making ominous noises and calms down.
Kamounia holding his heart, that’s pounding like crazy. Alambre checks on Kamounia.
Vega: This is perfect.
Draco: What you got in mind?
Vega: Enma can stay here and watch over this village. They will fear him.
Draco: That’s a good idea.
Vega turns to the Knockers by Alambre and Kamounia.
Vega: I’ll be leaving. Don’t try to tell the Army or Enma here…
Vega signals over to Enma.
Vega: He’ll handle it.
Enma does a menacing look toward the knockers. The knockers screech in fear.
Alambre: Ok!
Vega looks at Enma.
Vega: (You’re in charge, Enma. Don’t let them do anything.)
Enma: (Ok.)
Enma nods to Vega.
Alambre: (They can communicate without talking?!)
Vega: Let’s go.
Draco: Alright. Wrath is probably back by now.
Bulgogi: (Wrath? Is he just as scary as Vega….)
Draco, Vega, and Bulgogi all walk toward the village; Dust. After 20 minutes of walking, they make it into Dust, with Wrath waiting for them at the East entrance. Sitting down in the dark.
Wrath: Took you bitches long enough.
Draco (happy): Wrath!
Wrath and Draco dab up while smiling. Vega standing to the side.
Bulgogi: (This is Wrath…)
Wrath: Who is this?
Draco: We’ll tell you everything. Let's get to the base first, where we can sit down.
Wrath: Good idea. We have a lot to discuss.
All 4 of them walk to the base, ready for the plan!

And Start To Plan!]
