The War On Infogrames
Part Three: Revelations
of Evil
Chapter Four
As the carnage worsened outside the base, the
screams of the dying could also be heard inside the base. Dragitron was a
one-man wrecking crew, tearing through armed guards with the help of his twin
blades. In moments he reached the doors to Fong's main chamber.
Before he could proceed, Black16 appeared before him. "I must warn
you that proceeding will reveal much to you. Keep your cool, or the enemy
will defeat you." Drag stared into Black16's eyes. "I know
what I'm doing. Now get out of my way!" He kicked the door
open.
Inside the large room, Fong, Drakken, and Samrong were standing in front of an
odd glowing orb. It floated in the air, glowing an intense green.
The Council members remained huddled around the center of the room.
Drakken looked up and smiled.
"I know you! You're General Drakken! You assisted my father
during the Kaiju Wars! But what are you doing here?" Drag asked,
completely dumbfounded. Black16 stared angrily at Drakken.
"That man is not who you think. He is Selatoth, and he is the one who
killed your father!"
Drag seemed confused, and rightly so. "That's impossible! That
murderer had blue eyes! Horrible, despicable eyes!" Drakken
walked toward Drag. "That is true, Dragitron. Your father was
my best friend. It's too bad that his murderer escaped." Then
he turned to Black16. "But I think that you may still yet gain
retribution. You were there that fateful night, weren't you,
Black16?"
Drag turned to Black16. His eyes burned bright, ignited by anger.
Drag drew his swords to Black16's face. "It was you, wasn't it?
That's why you didn't open up to me a few days ago." Black16 stared
at Drakken while he answered Drag's inquisition. "I was there, but
only as an observer." He pointed to Drakken. "He is not
human! He is Selatoth, and he not only murdered your father, he began the
Kaiju Wars!"
Then Black16 turned to Dragitron. "If you wish to kill me, I'd advise
against it. There are more important matters at hand." Drag
stared with intense hatred at Black16.
Then he swung his swords at Black16's head.

GWB and G64 had their hands full. Mechanikong had superior strength and
firepower to boot. It punched at G64 who rolled out of the way and blasted
a hole in the robot's arm. Then its fist opened up to reveal a machine gun
which proceeded to pepper the laboratory with bullets. Awsome 1 stayed
hidden in the corner, whimpering like a child. GWB fired away at
Mechanikong's metal hide, but caused mostly dents. "How are we gonna
beat this thing? Our weapons are useless!" He ran from the
machine gun hand. "Awsome 1, if you know some way to beat this thing,
I hope you'll tell me soon!"
Awsome 1 thought for a moment. He looked up at the ceiling near the
entrance to the lab, and he had a brilliant idea. "G64, pull the
lever at the far end of the lab when Mechanikong reaches the entrance. GWB,
lure the robot to the doorway!"
G64 ran under the robot's legs. "Easier said than done!"
The robot turned towards him. "I could use some help!"
GWB did the only thing he could think of. "Hey, Mechanikong!
Your mother was a trash compactor!" The robot turned to face GWB.
"Yeah, that's right! Your mama's so worthless, she's now just a
security tag on a high-priced item in a flimsy grocery store!" G64
mouthed the words flimsy grocery store questioningly and GWB shrugged his
shoulders. However his plan worked as Mechanikong inched closer and closer
to the entrance. GWB made his way outside, and Mechanikong stopped at the
door. It held out its open fist, when suddenly a crushing piston came from
the ceiling and turned the robot into scrap metal.
GWB looked at Awsome 1. "What the hell was that all about?"
Awsome 1 left his hiding spot. "That was a security measure to
prevent intruders from accessing the lab. G64 pulled the lever to activate
the mechanism."
G64 looked at the containers holding the bio weapons. Then he realized
what he had to do. "Awsome 1, where's the main generator for these
pods?" Awsome 1 pointed behind G64. "Good. I suggest
you run, because I'm going to plant plastic explosives and take out this
laboratory once and for all."

Black16 disappeared before the swords could connect. He reappeared behind
Drag and blasted him against the wall. Drag got up and a trickle of blood
ran down the side of his mouth. He smiled and charged at his opponent.
Black16 disappeared again, but Drag was ready this time. He jabbed his
swords behind him and Black16 looked shocked and confused as he materialized.
The swords had pierced his stomach.
Black16 fell to the ground in a heap. Drag pulled his swords out of his
foe, and was about to finish him off.
Without warning, he launched one of his swords at Drakken. It pierced
through his chest plate and sent the villain sprawling to the ground.
Samrong ran to his aid. Fong was bewildered. "How did you know
it was him?" Drag smiled. "I remembered the red armor.
Black16 doesn't wear armor. And I knew that Drakken was jealous of my
father the moment I met him." He pointed his other sword at Fong.
"Now it's your turn to die."
