The FINAL chapter of Book 1; Chapter 24 - Sacrifice WARNING: this chapter contains a sad ending. --- Fortuna watched in horror as the cliff began to break below him and his friends. he couldn't processes it. No way, the Rageblade was that powerful, no way- And then the ground below them suddenly vanished. And I mean vanished. Turned into tiny particles by the Rageblade. Fortuna fell down with the rest of them, screaming, and dreading the fall. Fortuna, luckily was not one of the kits that fell first, and landed atop a pile of kits. He wasn't really harmed, just bruised. Fortuna couldn't say the same for the other kits who had been at the bottom. Fortuna looked away from them, taking a sharp inhale. Hopefully, they'll be allright, Fortuna hoped. It was Pyro who recovered first, sending flames towards Barbarian, who was laughing. Barbarian merely blocked them with The Rageblade and advanced on pyro, as he spwed out more and more flames, they started to spurt to each side as Barbrian went straight up in Pyro's face, the flames harmless. Then Barbarian slammed into Pyro, knocking his flamethrower, and knocked Pyro into the ground. Pyro got up slowly, then dived for the Flamethrower, but landed in front of it, just as Barbarian cut it clean in half. Pyro let out a wail/shout/screech noise, and grabbed his broken flamethrower. "That's impossible! impossible! You, you monster!" Pyro dived for Barbrian, but he merely pushed Pyro aside, sending him flying into the rock wall. Barbrian continued forward towards the pile of kits, who were now all coming to. A roar was heard, and Dino Tamer Don tore by Brabrain with his Dinoasur, and charged Striaght at him, catching barbarian off-gaurd, and knocking him over. Barbarian growled in anger as he got up, and when Don came to finish him off, swung The Rageblade like a bat, and he was flung. Barbarian then left the kits, and ran towards the center. Pyro sat on his knees by his flamethrower. Whisper went towards Eldertree, who was lying on the ground, bark scattered everywhere. "Punish him!" screamed Baker at the top of his lungs. "He failed! you failed, Eldertree! You failed all of us! just punish him already!" "No." Whisper said. "He's been hurt enough." "No? NO?! He failed, and we are all doomed because of his failure! I'll punish him myself, and ALL of you for making this disaster happen!" Baker shouted, wielding a bread roll. a few kits snickered. "No. You're not in charge anymore." Pyro got up and faced Baker, and Fortuna could see the tears in his eyes. "Excuse me? I am a part of The Kit Coucil, and-" "And you lost. to us. there's no more Kit Council. You won't be harming anyone ever again." Pyro paused. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but Barbrian will harm us all if we don't do something, so we might as well need you." Baker scoffed. "Of course you do." "Not for your snobbiness, Baker. or your horrible pies. We need you because you're old." a few kits laughed. Baker turned bright red. "You're old enough to know what Barbrian's going to do, so tell us or we'll leave you here." Pyro finished. "Hrph. I won't." Baker asked the sky. "When the Dev-loprs see this, they won't be happy. they'll punish you all! and put me back in charge." Baker grinned. "So you don't care about any of us, at all?" challenged Trinity, stepping up from the crowd with Umbra. Baker couldn't answer, because a rumble was heard, and a bright red flash, and the sky turned orange. Red cracks appered through the ground and structures. "Barbarian is going to turn this place into a Rageful Land, whatever that means, or whatever his blade's going to do!" blurted out Farmer Cletus. "I was there, and I only know that if he gets his sword all the way in the slot at the volcano, we're done!" Everyone turned to Farmer Cletus. -- They were at the volcano, where Barbrain was at the top, pushing The Rageblade into. "He's feeding off the rage. Stay calm." Farmer Cletus said. Raven looked upwards. "We have to take down him, at this stage?" "If we could get someone up there-" The trees behind them started to fall. "And they could take the blade from him, he would be powerless." "Great!" said Fortuna. "Let's go!" Farmer Cletus put a hand to stop him. "I don't know how we could get a kit up there. and even if we did, I don't think they could survive the amount of Rage. And heat." Phantasm looked at the volcano. "I could distract them. they won't know what´s real or not." "Someone has to, and I will." Umbra stepped forward. "I've been here a long time, and I wasn't able to help out in the battle. I wouldn't mind trading my place here to keep everyone here. it'd be worth it." Crypt shook his head. "Umbra, you've kept most of the kits twogether, helping them, and you're very high price to give up, to us." "But-" The ground suddenly split in front of Fortuna, Umbra, and Whisper. "no-!" They were on the edge of a newly formed cliff. -- Look in notes :)
Look down after the story for credits -- "There's no time!" Umbra shouted, looking up at Barbrian, whose Sword was almost fully in. "Umbra-" Whisper started. "Fortuna, Give me an explosive card!" Fortuna hesitated, then gave him one. "I-" Umbra jumped, and felt Whisper's owl catch him. He looked down at the explosive card, which was turing cold. It shimmered and Umbra realized, with sudden panic, it was an Araodynamic Card. it had writing on it. "A good jester knows when to play a trick." - The guest of wind knocked him off the owl, towards the ground. Fortuna caught the owl. "Fortuna!" Fortuna landed on the volcano, and Umbra couldn't see what happened next, but everyone knew. A loud Crack was heard, a bright ball of light, flames, explosion. It was all gone, and so was Fortuna.
