Chapter Two
Archimedes



  Redconer Kiritak the Second woke up as a house exploded across the street.
Redconer scrambled out of his bed, sheets and pillows flying. He could hear other Blocklanders screaming and running above and below his apartment. Quickly, he put on pants, a shirt, and belted his sheath and scrambled down stairs.
The lobby was in chaos. Players ran around throwing chairs and belongings around the lobby. The owner hid behind his desk trying to avoid all unidentified flying objects. Redconer quickly ducked and dodged and then made his way outside.

  Outside was even in more chaos. More players ran around screaming. The ones who weren't were sitting on the street, head in hands crying.
Many buildings were in ruins. Some buildings seemed to just not be there. The beautiful wooden buildings either had gaping holes, burning, or on the street, on it's side.
Redconer surveyed the area, trying to think of what to do. Just then, the apartment behind him exploded. Shrapnel and debris stung as it hit his back. He was sent flying all the way across the seat, tumbling till he hit the wall of another house.
He got up, dazed. Where were these explosions coming from? Then he saw it. A man was flying through the sky. He was wearing an odd suit. Yellow boots, chest, and and arms, with a black undershirt, pants and mask. He was the most odd looking person Redconer had seen yet.
But there was something else. He was holding an object. A long slim object. Redconer couldn't see it to well.

  Redconer got up from the ground and ran across the street, getting a better look of what was in his right hand. It looked like a wand of some type. Redconer had never seen something like it before. He reached out with the wand, pointing it at another building next to the apartment. A fiery red laser came out of the tip of the want, firing straight through the house, the house blew up, sending another shockwave through the city.
Redconer obviously didn't know what it was, but he guessed it was dangerous. He ran from building to building, trying to debate if he should run, or try something utterly stupid that would probably get him killed.

  He went with choice 2.

  Just then, he turned to see a eight soldiers marching toward the black and yellow guy. They were armed with pikes, with short swords sheathed on their belts. They got to the road, in front of the flying black and yellow guy. They prepared their pikes, lowering it in front of them.
The black and yellow guy slowly levitated onto the ground. Little bits of dust scattering around his leather feet.

  "You think you can stop the great and powerful Maxis?!" He sneered. "No one can stop me!"

   So apparently this guy was Maxis. Great, whoever he was. Thought Redconer.

  "For Archimedes!" Charged the pikemen.

  Maxis easily lifted up his wand, pointing it to the group. He fired one laser at the first row.
BOOM. The pikemen flew backwards, left, and right.

  Maxis laughed. He rose up the ground about ten blocks. He surveyed the screaming town. "SILENCE!" Maxis shouted. No use. The Blocklanders kept running around screaming.
  Maxis grumbled something under his breath that Redconer couldn't hear. Maxis then looked up. "SIIIILEEEENCEEEE!!!" Maxis screamed. Firing a shot of the explosive red laser at the center of the town.
  Everyone stopped, turning towards Maxis. "You cowards of Archimedes!" He laughed. "Surrender! Submit to Lord Tony!"
  Mothers clenched their children. People around the road cowered behind objects.

  "Hey!" Shouted Redconer. Standing up. "What do you think you're doing here?"

  Maxis turned around. "Who do you think you are?!" Barked Maxis.

 "I'm that guy." Said Redconer, slowly walking towards Maxis, hand on his sword hilt. "Who do you think you are?"

 "I am Maxis, the great scripter. I have come to take over your town!"

  "How do you think you're going to do that?"

  "Well... uh..." He thought about it for a second, levitating in mid air.

  Redconer hoped that his plan that he just made up was going to work, or he would be fried chicken.

  "Well I'm going to–" Maxis shrieked.

  Redconer quickly unsheathed his sword and lunged at Maxis, slashing at the place where-you-do-not-hit. The sword cut his thigh, sending him spiraling out of control then landing onto the ground.

  "How dare you cut me with your toy!" He shrieked. He got up, limping on his left leg. He took his wand and shot at Redconer. Redconer dodged it by a hair, feeling its hot powerful blast almost cut through his shoulder. Redconer ducked, rolled, got back up and charged at Maxis.
Maxis shot two more lasers from his d-wand, both of them missed. Redconer tackled Maxis to the ground and sat on his chest, punching Maxis in the face.
All of a sudden, the air around Redconer and Maxis grew hot, exponentially. A bright light surround them.

  "What the–" Redconer was blown back. Maxis was now levitating again, eyes glowing. Redconer scrambled back.

  "How dare you defy Maxis." Echoed Maxis, as if there were ten people inside him, speaking in unison. "You will face the consequences."

  "Oh." Redconer cursed. Scrambling back. Maxis raised his wand, pointing it right at Redconer's head.

  "Prepare to–" SHINK! The glow in Maxis' eyes faded. He fell to the ground, face first onto the dirt, a knife sticking out of his back. Redcorner blinked.

  "Now what did you think you were doing?" Said a figure behind Maxis' body.

Quote
Old Champion/Mentor/Champion
Character Name: Helix Gravityhead, "Hel"
Character Gender: Male
Character Lore: A recent-ish champion, he is still ready to fight Lord Tony and his evil minions, at the age of 35. He fought the Lord at age 19. He was unsuccessful the first few times he attempted to best him, and at this point at his life he's ready to step back up to fighting, after many years in hiding. He wields a bow with carbon-sharp tips, meaning it is both a close range and long-ranged weapon. He is, personality-wise, a somewhat mysterious man who uses few words in verbal contact who is able to become serious in the right predicaments, and always wears a hood over his head with his cloak and other. The ones from his past may recognize him, as when he was younger he never wore a hood and his face was always seen.
Other Information: If it's okay with Swat, he may have a few relations with Mini Han Solo (or someone else, as Jakob will change his name) as they are both older champions.
