A Hidden Subordinate

The ground began shaking and rumbling. Cross fired a metallic spike at Veil. A barrier was generated around Veil"s body. The metallic spike shattered into pieces. Veil began smiling. As he ceased his powering up, he began smiling. His power grew from 900,000,000,000 to 12,000,000,000,000. Veil began levitating. Cross continued to fire metallic spikes at Veil. Veil easily evaded the metallic spikes. Veil snapped his fingers causing a powerful burst of energy to be released from the ground. Cross barely managed to circumvent the attack. His clothes were shredded and torn.

Veil quickly flew to the ground and punched Cross in the chest. Cross coughed up blood, crashing through the giant marble and wooden door. "You can't defeat me, Cross Rodriguez." "You are way out of your league." Cross stood on his feet wiping the blood from his mouth. He had a huge purple mark on the center of his chest. As Cross was about to throw a punch at Veil, his body froze up. He couldn't move. Veil began grinning. He grabbed Cross by the throat and repeatedly began punching him in the chest. Cross vomited up blood in Veil"s face. " How disgusting." "Remember this." You will never ever be able to defeat me." As he tightened his grip on Cross"s neck, he fired a pink beam into Cross"s chest, creating a giant hole. Cross was instantly knocked unconscious. He walked up to the edge of the bridge and tossed him off the 60-foot bridge.

Cross crashed into a waterfall. Veil ripped his sleeve off and wiped Cross"s blood from his face, tossing the blood-drenched sleeve to the side. He took a deep breath dispersing the pinkish aura from around his body, walking back into his strange chambers. When he was about to sit down, he heard footsteps approaching. As he turned around he saw one of the ones who Veil defeated by never accepted as one of his subordinates. His name was Dragon. Dragon was 5'8 and weighed 200 pounds. He had a shiny bald head. Around his neck, he wore red beads. Around his face, he had a red mask made of cloth that only covered his mouth and some of his nose. Dragon wore a black monk robe. His weapon was a red staff. He had a single sharp fang. He was taken in by the Northern Claw Monastery founded by a master kung-fu expert by the name of Rein.

Rein was over 100 years old. Rein was missing an eye. This was from fighting the infamous Feng. The winner of the match was undecided. Both opponents were wounded badly. Dragon, however, was banished when he killed one of his fellow comrades, Bruiser. He was named Dragon but his real name was Quincy. Dragon was 27 years old. " What the fuck are you doing here Dragon?" asked Veil. " Rumor has it that the famous intruders have come to your castle to take you down." "By the way looks of this place I am correct." "Tch." " That is all over now." "You can partake your leave." Dragon began laughing. "I came here because I thought you needed assistance." " I will tell you one last time." "Leave." Every since Veil saw Dragon he disliked him. He wanted a chance to break every bone in his body.

"I will leave when I want." Veil stuck his hand out and fired a needle at Dragon. Dragon blocked the needle with his red staff made of rare metal, not of The Zen Continent. It was from space. The name of this metal was called Zend Metal. Zend Metal was made from when an explosion of two meteors and asteroids collided together. They combined together and turned into the indestructible Zend Metal. The Zend Metal meteorite weighed over 20 tons. It crashed into the center Of The Claw Monastery. Many weapons were crafted out of this 20 ton Zend Metal meteorite.

This made the followers of The Claw Monastery extremely powerful and violent. No one dared to challenge them. Not even the Zen Clan. Only one member of the Zen Clan challenged the leader of The Claw Monastery, Feng. He managed to rip out Rein"s left eye. Rein managed to stab Feng repeatedly in the chest, and give him many other scars.

Veil sucked his teeth, continuing to fire needles at Dragon. Dragon blocked all the needles with his red staff. He began smiling. Dragon leaped towards Veil, trying to bash him in the head. Veil tried to yank Dragon"s staff from his hands. As he did, Dragon activated a hidden button on his staff. His staff suddenly turned into a spear. Veil instantly jumped back. The spear punctured through his shoulder. This made Veil angry. He created a giant pink blade. They both clashed their weapons together, causing sparks to fly everywhere.

Underneath The City Of Malar...

Cross was still in the waterfall unconscious. He was underneath the fancy city of Malar. Underneath the fancy city of Malar had another city where the poorer people lived. Vagabonds and drunks roamed everywhere. This city was called Old Malar. A fisherman and his son dragged the wounded Cross inside their homes. When Cross recovered he found himself in a bed with bandages wrapped around his entire body up to his neck. Next you him had some extremely hot chicken soup.
