Not done,but i'm making this thread because the last one got too off topic.

I woke up, and tumbled out of my cold, itchy bed.
That’s how life is in the city of Deadpool.
I decided to skip breakfast; my cereal was already filled with roaches.
I grabbed my grey coat, the exact color of my skin, and the mirror taunts me with my ever lasting smile-I need to get a real avatar soon…
I walk outside, wishing I could frown.
The city looks rotten, and dead.
There is a man on my corner, trying to sell produce to survive.
“You wanna buy this apple?” he meekly says, knowing nobody in the city had money to spend. Walking a few blocks, I cross the street.
I always hated those Advice dog variants.
The Advice dog variants are a strange cult, revolving around attention. They sport rainbow striped robes, and run wild around the City, screaming random phrases.
Next-door to the Variants is a condemned warehouse, I quickly run in. In rusty, weathered letters the front door reads “CAMOAWAM”
I am an officer; always trying to convince the Admin’s that it is a meme.
A hooded figure sits at a table in front of me, he tells me to take a seat.
That’s not the leader.
“Who are you?” I ask.
“You sound nothing like Redspear, show me your face.”
He removes the hood.
And there, I see it.
The face of hell.
He is known by nobody, nobody but me.
His name?
Mafia boy.
I rush out of the building, blindly darting around.
This was shocking, my leader was gone-I was like a pawn without a leader…
I needed to put myself together, and I couldn’t do it in this hell hole. I went found the dirt road that leads out of Deadpool, and I looked at the sign that loomed above me. “YOU ARE NOW LEAVING DEADPOOL.DON’T STEAL ANYTHING.”
Under it, the ground switched immediately from a cold, dirt road to a sleek asphalt one. I took my first step out of the city, the air smelled clean and fresh, kind of.
I kept going, and I noticed where I was.
Submissionopolis.
The sky was a slightly light gray, the clouds where white. The ground was sort of dark gray…I think.
Nothing about it was definite; it all seemed like a question.
As I kept walking down the highway, a white-is cab pulled up to me.
The mirror rolled down, and I shuddered.
It was a black guy, with a grey handlebar moustache.
He asked me “Need a lift?” in a casual way.
I said no, and coughed.
The air changing so fast must have agitated my lungs.
He stared at me in Horror and said, in a ghostly voice
“SHUT.”
“DOWN.”
“EVERYTHING.”
I quickly walked away.
People in Submissionopolis are weird.
When I finally reached the city, it was more peaceful think.
There was a short, rich looking man on what I think was a horse.
And a large man with a beard and a crown, selling burgers.
I casually walked over and gave him around two dollars.
He handed me a burger with something that MIGHT be cheese.
I practically inhaled it, and then a billboard caught my eye.
“VISIT CONFIRMED WORLD, A LAND OF PROPER SPELLING AND DEFINITE MEMES.”
And I had an epiphany.
This is where I had to go; I just couldn’t go back to Deadpool after seeing what MIGHT be paradise.
I couldn’t even stay here, I think. I need something definite, something absolute.
And confirmed world is where it’s at.
But that was so far away, how was I to get there?
I had an idea.
It was pretty late; the admins were all probably off. I went into an internet cafe and made a meme entry.
“Flying saucer thing that takes people to confirmed world”
I waited, and then in a few seconds, that very same thing was outside of the cafe.
I jumped in, and started my way to Confirmed World…
Zipping around the sky, I for once in my life felt relaxed.
And then I stopped.
I noticed that from a few hundred feet, I was hurdling towards the ground, my saucer was gone-I realized that an admin had Deadpooled it.
Seeing as I had nothing left to do, I simply curled into a ball and waited for my impact.
It came, but not a hard as I expected.
I was on a hard surface, no doubt. And it was damp.
I figured it was my own blood, but I felt no pain.
Miraculously, I got up, and surveyed my surroundings.
That wasn’t my blood, it was damp wood.
I looked around, and I noticed I was on a ship.
It wasn’t vacant.
I saw a shadow from around a corner, of what seemed to be a very large man.
I hid behind a barrel, trying to be silent.
“Who’s that?!” I heard.
I peeked through a hole, and saw it was no man.
It was a hippo, with a pirate hat, wielding a large mallet with the inscription “BH” on it
I figured since he was pretty big, I could just outrun him if he was violent so I slowly crept up, with my hands in the air.
I told him my story, everything that had happened today.
He chuckled and introduced himself.
“My Name’s Captain Blubber, and you are?”
I introduced myself.
All of a sudden, a huge gong sounded.
He grinned, and I shuddered.
It was time.
Meme Elimination Game.
Meme elimination game, a cruel blood sport popular only in Confirmed world-it seems that is where I had landed.
As I neared the stadium, I noticed the city, how beautiful it looked compared to Deadpool City.
It was a rich town, with lots of useless parks with fountains, lots of museums of memes and lots of snobbery. Lots of Admin’s hung around here, like my newly found friend Blubber, and Chris.
Waiting in line for the Stadium with Blubber, he told me he was going to go abuse his admin powers, and take a seat in the front row.
Even though I disliked the whole sport, he said he’d save me a spot so I couldn’t turn him down.
I noticed at the end of the line, a whole group of people that look like me where being denied entrance.
I realized why, the noob avatar we where all wearing.
I dashed out of line and behind the stadium, looking for a dumpster.
I rooted the nearest one, and I could only find two avatar’s that fit.
A boxxy/awesome smiley or an ogre.
I took the ogre.
Heading back to the line, I quickly rushed up to the front, saying I was with Blubber.
The bouncer, a big red-headed dude with a goatee grunted, and opened the gate. Finally inside, I walked over to the seat next to a very content Blubber, who was fixated on the arena-eating popcorn.
The rules were simple. Contestants where held to the ceiling a few hundred feet over a pit filled with spikes.
People were constantly voting and placing bets on who would live the longest.
Each contestant was held up by twenty ropes, whenever someone in the crowd voted them down, a rope was shot off by a marksman.
Whenever someone voted up, a rope from the ceiling came down to said contestants level, allowing the contestant to tie themselves onto a new rope.
Some where more well off-a little blue lizard lay sleeping in a rope hammock, of at least thirty ropes.
Meanwhile, a man on a bulldozer was missing a few, and with the combined weight of the man and bulldozer with the missing ropes, it looked like he was going to fall soon.
Then I noticed, in the balcony seats.
King Dubs.
And he had a man behind him with a gun, presumably one of the marksmen.
Then I noticed it wasn’t just anybody.
It was Redspear.
And he wasn’t aimed at the contestants.
He was aimed at King Dubs.
I could have ran, and pretended it never happened, that I saw nothing.
I could have walked back home to deadpool, and continued my life there.
I could have just watched Redspear shoot King Dubs.
But I didn’t.
I had come this far, too far to go back to being an officer for Camoawam…
I rushed up the stairs, and ran to the balcony.
A man in a green fedora with a golden guitar pushed me away.
“King Dubs doesn’t want to be interrupted.”
I had no choice but to return to my seat and watch, as Redspear grinned, and waited for King Dubs to turn around.
Then I noticed the bouncer with the goatee, sprint towards Redspear.
With an evil grin, I saw his mouth word out the phrase I knew he was going to say; I could have almost heard it.
“It is TOO a meme.”
An ear shattering bang echoed through the stadium, and as I looked in horror, I saw the man slumped down, and slowly a pool of blood surrounded him.
I noticed King Dubs was no longer there, he was wise for fleeing from a madman with a gun.
As the crowed ran around wildly, screaming and trying to get out, all I could notice was the blood splattered grin on Redspear’s face.
And then I gasped in horror.
That blood splattered face…

Looked back.
For a few more seconds, we simply stared at each other, waiting for the other to do something.
Too tired to run, and too underpowered to fight, I look around for Blubber and his Banhammer, but to no avail.
By now, the stadium was completely empty, just me and Redspear.
He leaped down, landing on his feet and making a small crater in the cement.
As he slowly walked towards me, I slowly walked back.
“So you left Camoawam, eh?”
I was scared to the point that I was gasping for air.
“No, I…Uh-Well, you see-the thing is…”
I could barely make a sentence much less defend myself.
He laughed and snapped his fingers.
A dreadful silence filled the air.
And then…
I heard powerful rumbling, from all around me.
It seemed to be coming from everywhere.
All of a sudden, it stopped.
And then, the most shocking thing I have ever seen happened.
The ground erupted, and a lava covered figure came out.
Redspear giggled, like some sort of maniacal toddler.
“Kill him.”
My jaw dropped as the lava dripped off-Redspear had impressive bodyguards.
The figure was a girl, covered in leather and spikes, with all sorts of chains and metal on her outfit. She held an axe about as big as me, which dripped some sort of black ooze.
“Seeing as you left, I replaced you…Twice.”
I raised my brow; I had only seen one person.
Then, I felt a stabbing pain in my gut.
I looked down, and there sticking out of my chest was a pulsating rainbow knife.
The wielder put their head on my shoulder and laughed.
“Suits you.”
It was another girl, with a ponytail and glasses, in those dreaded rainbow striped robes.
The knife began to heat, and shocked me like some sort of taser from hell.
On my knees, the first person came up to me, axe on her shoulder and about to swing
“Nighty Night.”
She swung it faster then the human eye.
That was the day I died.
awoke with a swaying feeling, and I fell off of whatever I was on, and the swaying continued.
I looked around, my eyes still opening.
It looked like a cabin, but it was too out of shape to be one.
On the shelves were broken compasses and guns with no ammo, it seemed like it was some sort of joke.
The walls were covered in pirate memorbillia, covered with flags and whatnot.
I noticed a small desk near me with some soup on it, and a small statue.
Not hungry, I went towards the statue; upon further inspection I found it was a Buddha Statue.
I looked at it with my head cocked and smiled.
I felt delirious and figured my brain was swaying, not the room.
Then the statue talked.
I jumped back about a foot, landing on my back.
“Go up.”
I looked at it, with a dazed look on my face.
The day was becoming stranger and stranger.
It repeated “You will find the way, up.”
I looked around; there were no stairs, nor ladders.
“Up?”
The statue motioned for me to come closer, so I did.
It smacked me upside the head “Think harder.”
I thought Buddha was supposed to be kind.
I stumbled around, dizzy and confused-my captors most have used some sort of drug on me.
The room began spinning, and colors started forming.
The last thing I remember was falling down, square on my head-passing out.
I had a dream, as I lay on the cold, wooden floor.
I was surrounded by that Buddha statue, all of them spoke in unison.
“Up.”
“Up.”
“UP.”
I awoke, and I no longer felt so delirious.
I walked over to the Buddha, and it did not talk to me.
The room did not spin, and there were no colors.
But that creaky swaying was still there.
After about an hour worth of looking, there was no stairway.
No pole, ladder, elevator or even hole in the ceiling.
It was like that room was its own world, and I suddenly felt very alone.
Very alone and claustrophobic.
I rummaged through the desks and shelves, and the only interesting thing I could find was a board game.
I sighed and threw it on the floor, and lay on by hammock.
The pieces to it were spheres with flat bottoms, so they naturally rolled.
One rolled to me, so out of curiosity I looked at it.
It was a sickly green, almost the same color as my skin.
On the bottom were two small letters.
I grinned.
I found up.
I pushed my thumb into the writing, and it began to glow.
In shock, I dropped it, and it began to glow more. The room was soon filled with a haunting green light, I closed my eyes.
Then, a sharp rumbling noise came.
The ground below me started shaking, more than it was rocking. And suddenly, the centre of the room began to shrink.
And expand at the same time.
A hole in the middle of the room, definitely.
Getting wider and wider.
I fell, and landed on cold, hard concrete.
I looked up, and there I saw a flying ship, and the hole began to close-The flag was what caught my eye.
It was a jolly roger, but the skull was deformed, having a long, fat nose.
I looked around, and I almost jumped.
I had landed myself in Redspears lair, and around me, all sorts of mechanical torture devices were strewn about.
The ground was orange and shaggy, like some sort of carpeting.
I heard a door opening, and hid under a rusty medical table.
There, I heard a conversation, between two familiar voices.
Redspear…
I gulped and realized who was with him.
Mafia Boy.
He had the power of ten thousand Failwhales, and the cold, evil heart of an army of Desu’s.
“I thought I told you to keep Menning alive.” I heard, in a horrendous Brooklyn accent.
“I’m sorry; I just had the perfect opportunity.”
“Opportunity? I can summon IT and you thought that THEN you had an opportunity!?”
“I’m sorry…To be fair, it wasn’t there.”
“Because I have to summon it-Which I will now.”
“Please, I don’t want to hurt all of them, just Chris-I gave you my power to summon it, and you gave me the minions. The deal has already been made, why do you want more?”
A long pause occured, and the room’s light got darker, the air colder.
“Simple.”
“I want my minions back.”
I heard Redspear trying to run away, but the doors locked themselves.
I heard chanting in a foreign language, seemingly mingled in a Brooklyn accent.
Then, the room began to glow a sick lime green, and the light bulbs began to shake, then simultaneously short circuited.
Then, I saw out of the corner of my eye, a horrendous beast, slithering around.
I look at the monster.
And the monster…
Looks.
At.
Me.

It was Emeralds,a shape shifter from the deepest,darkest depths of the country…
He was a demon,who shape shifted into different monsters,all different shades of green and made of diamond. Now,he was a dark green snake,slithering about the floor. His summoning had made a huge crater in the floor- a portal from whence he came.
Emeralds was a land far worse than the city of Deadpool- He was from Discussionville's farthest back posts,with each page getting worse and worse. I shuddered to think about it.
I could hear Redspear darting around screaming,looking for an exit,and Mafia Boy laughing.
Then, I felt the most breathtaking feeling.
It felt like somebody had shot me,but I was under the table hiding,and all of a sudden,All I could see was a huge flash of light,followed by peace.
I was having some sort of dream brought on by stress,I was floating around in a golden light-And for some reason,the Canadian national anthem was playing.
I looked around me,and Blubber was a few yards away singing it, I floated over to inspect
I startled him,and he jumped-which startled me,so I jumped.
With relieve he saw it was me,and his face was then grave…
"What's wrong,Blub?"
"I am not Captain Blubber,I am merely a figment of your imagination."
I paused and shrugged,this seemed likely.
"You need to go to the last page,Tristan. There you must confront….Him…"
I felt winded,and broke out in cold sweat.
"He who we must never speak of?!"
"Yes,once you are there you must beat him at his own game,and Emerald will be sent to the last page,along with Mafia Boy and Redspear."
"But why me?! I could stay here and fight off these three."
"No, I must. But all is not lost. To help you defeat him,I am sending with you my finest crew member."
"I thought you were a figme-"
"Shuttup. I'm sending my finest crew member with you,to help you defeat him. Once he is defeated, Emeralds will be sent back,along with his summoner and the gatherer of the tools to summon him,Redspear and Mafia Boy. But if you fail…"
I gulped in fear…
"Then the entire country will be thrown into UTTER HIGGILDY PIGGILDY
I nodded.
"I must go now Tristan,Emeralds has turned into some sort of giant nipple ogre…Even Anti Jamie Talking normal isn't enough. Good luck,and farewell."
With that,I snapped out of my dream,and got out from under the table. there was a giant gaping hole in Redspear's wall,and nobody was there.
I took a moment to admire the orange shag capret,and walked toward the crater,which had a huge hole in it that was drawing in cold air and blowing out warm air,as if it was breathing.
All of a sudden,a coldness enveloped me.
A snowman ran up to me,grinning.
"You must be Tristan."
He extended a branch.
"I'm Jostin,I'll be helping you get rid of…Him…As will my apprentice."
"Blubber didn't say any-"
I was interrupted by another person running up,he was a 13 year old looking boy,with a pinstripe suit on and rick astley hair.
"Hiya! I'm skank!"
He stifled childish laughter.
"This is Skankin." Jostin said,sounding less than amused.
"He's the crew's powder monkey.
I couldnt really complain,I was just a big lumbering Troll.
Skankin grabbed both our arms and dove into the hole,still laughing.
And that was where our adventure began.

Awesome chapter, Tris… ahem… Maceinyoface2!!

I'm happy to be in the story now! Too bad you didn't introduce me, Frketson, and Tomberry as our ever famous group known as Los Banditos (otherwise known as "The Good, The Bad, and The Canadian" :D). Oh well, it's awesome nonetheless.

I felt as if I broke through something,like I wall.
We had landed in the back of the discussion board,a mutant wasteland of decay and rot.
It was hard to describe,there was not an absence of sun,but it was not sunny.
In fact, the sky itself was a plain gray, it was plainly nothingness. it looked like a sickening mixture of Deadpool, submissionopolis and Confirmed world.
Not everything was gray,but most things were.
The tall office buildings with shattered windows were gray and cracked, and a tumbleweed made of old newspapers occasionally rolled by.
But there was one reason why nobody ever came here,it was a place of myth for one disturbing reason.
They said his powers were so great,he radiated life. In the place of people and animals,things were alive,inanimate objects. I clenched my eyes closed for a few seconds and trudged on, trying desperately to ignore the myths,even Skank was silent. Jostin seemed unfaded,and I was practically shaking. In the distance,there was a huge skyscraper,that reached past the clouds. Even though there was no sky,the top of it seemed to attract an ominous red lightning,and the space around it seemed just a little darker.
The fools walk closer.
"Sh."
I looked at Jostin. "What happened?"
Jostin looked into a dark alleyway,and then turned away.
"I think some rat got caught in a dumpster or something,nothing of importance."
I can almost taste them,I see the body heat radiating off of them now,
We trudged on,the alley gave me a bad feeling.
The little one shall die first
We continued toward the tower, knowing that he would be in it, waiting for our arrival.
There was a rumbling in the distance,and even Jostin seemed worried as it got louder.
I have released them, the one made of snow may prove to be troublesome.
"W-What's happening?" Skank seemed utterly horrified, the only reason I seemed braver was because couldn't speak out of fear.
A sickening screech was heard around the corner,and then…
Silence.
"I think we need Captai-"
Jostin was cut short by it coming around the corner, My screams were muffled by it barreling towards us.
It was a bus…But it wasn't.
It was dirty and grungy,covered in grime,and the headlights seemed too human.
Then, I was almost knocked back in fear of what I saw.
There was no driver.
It hurdled toward us,And Jostin grabbed me and Skank and leaped to the right.
It was too close of a call,Skank was screaming-and not in fear.
His suit had a dark red spot on the knee that slowly grew,blood.
Jostin;not one to ask first, sprinted toward the bus who had now turned around and was coming back,after tasting Skank.
Jostin raised his right branch,which quickly grew from a small,dying twig into a burly muscular arm covered in bark, and he smashed his new appendage into the bus' front,causing it to flip forward onto it's back. It skidding about ten yards,and then stopped.
It oozed motor oil,it's entire front smashed,the sheer force of the punch popped the headlights,and the bus no longer made noise.
Skankin was looking at his knee, and now it was my time to shine.
I was a surgical intern in Deadpool, so wrapping excess cloth around cut's was my forte.
Once his wound was properly healed, we continued,without a word.
I must kill the green one first, it tends to the others.
I still continued with the feeling we were being watched.
The was an eerie silence,one that none of us wanted to break.
But the trip would have been harder,so I was the first to talk.
"So… Creepy,eh?"
Jostin nodded and his arm shriveled back to it's branchy state.
"I never thought it would be this bad,I wonder what the captain is doing right now."

+
"This sandwich is so damn good…"I thought to myself.
I looked out the window,even Redspear had joined the brigade to stop Emerald,everyone was pitching in.
"I'll help in a few minutes…" I still thought to myself.
But man,that was going on my list of best sandwiches ever.
+

"Can we take a break?" Skank seemed less lively,and slightly tired."
They will soon snap,and while they are too tired…
"Fair enough." Spoke Jostin.
In a slightly show off-y manner, he squeezed a water o=bottle out of his non-solid chest,and gulped all of it.
He face a building, and sprayed a mist out of the water,onto the wall.
The water slowly dripped down,turning to ice. still dripping, I opened my mouth in awe as it began to drip horizontally,off the wall-as if on a surface. It began dripping down again, until there were stairs that looking slightly like icicles.
He breathed on them,breathing a thick heavy fog and there it was.
Jostin had created thick icy stairs to the roof,with each step seemed to be about a foot tall.
Not one to ask questions, I carried the half passed out Skank up, and there Jostin broke off his left arm.
I raised an eyebrow.
"Care to explain?"
He grinned.
"Watch this."
As he broke off his left arm,another grew in its place-which was also broken off. He repeated this until he had a large bundle of sticks, which he placed into a triangle.
As if by magic,they ignited by themselves,and Jostin backed away.
"I'll be on the other side, you too keep warm."
I nodded,and sat by the fire.
And slowly but surely,I fell asleep.

@Tristan

WOW!! You made me more awesome than I really should be. Thanks! I'm loving the suspense in the story.

I woke up to the same gray sky,feeling much more rested.
I looked around,And Jostin and Skank were unaware I had woken up,Skank's leg looked much better.
Jostin seemed to be roasting a pigeon on the fire,and Skank was poking his leg.
"Morning,guys."
Jostin looked over "So sleeping beauty has risen,eh?"
Skank chuckled and looked to me "Technically this place messed with our sleep schedule,we got here at night, so it's actually the late afternoon."
I looked around,same rooftop,same grey sky.
Unlike submissionopolis,it was a different kind of gray.
Submissionopolis was sheerly black and white,and this place just seemed like a cloudy city.
I got up and stretched,there was a low hum in the distance.
"Another truck?"
Jostin shrugged.
"I saw what it was,I'm pretty sure this place makes huge mutant pigeons."
"Did you see a mutant pigeon?"
"No,but it was big and black and it flew. This place has normal sized pigeons."He motioned toward the dead bird that he and Skank were now eating. "So with enough radiation type stuff,maybe it has giant pigeons."
I shrugged,after seeing a carnivorous bus I thought a big bird would be the least of my worries.
"Anyhow,we shouldkeep moving through the streets, we could fall."
And so we walked down the slightly melted stairs and onto the cold,dead street-and towards the tower.
The humming got louder,and I looked up.
It looked like a pigeon from where I looked at it,and it fit Jostin's description.
But there was something that didn't seem quite right…
I thought about for a second-nothing seemed right.
We turned a corner,the street had another dead bus blocking it.
We froze where we stood.
There was a taxi,albeit missing a wheel.
It's headlight eyes glared at us,and it growled.
We had no place else to go,so we kept moving closer,to see if it could move wit the missing wheel.
Skank's eyes lit up,and he raced toward it "Lemee see!" he cheerily said.
Before Jostin could even say no, Skank was about a foot away from the cab.
It growled more,and moved slightly back,making a few sparks on it's missing side.
It seemed to also be leaking motor fuel too,so I stepped back-if there was an explosion,Skank's carelessness would not be the thing to kill me.
Skank stood for a second,and walked closer,putting a hand on the hood.
The taxi stopped going back,but it still growled making a weak raspy growl.
Skank walked over to the trunk,and clicked it open.
"I know alot about Taxis,they always keep a spare tire."
"Yeah,in case it breaks down and they have a passenger. I'm sure our friend here doesn't do that too often." Spoke Jostin.
Skank reached in,and pulled out a tire holding back laughter and looking at Jostin.
He went to the missing side,and more growls.
"Just hold still, big guy."
He slowly spun the tire on,until a clicking sound was heard. Maybe in this world,gravity was stronger,because everytime I see someone change a tire it involves a wrench.Maybe a different kind of car.
The cab looked at Skank,then looked at it's new tire.
Skank froze,now it could kill him,he already had a brush with a bus.
It just stared at him for about ten seconds,then took off,and hurdled around a different corner,it's screeching sound growing fainter and fainter.
Jostin looked at the disappointed Skank. "Well, I hate to be hard on you-but I think that's what kindness gets you here.Now c'mon buddy."
Skank looked at the ground where the cab stood,and walked over to us,not as cheery as before.
The small one's spirit is breaking.
The ominous feeling of someone watching us continued,and a sound came from another alley.
I looked at Jostin,and he looked at me.
"Should we check this one?"
"I think so, two alleys is kind of creepy."
We walked over to the alley,and there was a hole on the bottom of one of the sides of a building,going under it. It was about big enough for maybe Jostin,but definitely Skank to get through,and a cold wind came out of it.
"Skank,go investigate it." Jostin barked. That reminded me,even though he was our friend,he was the best crewmate,so he had to be the toughest.
Skank nodded his head,and crawled down the hole.
The little one comes into my home,I will soon spit out his pieces.

+
I crawled through the hole that seemed too small for even me.
It smelled musty,and looked alot like a cave-but that was just what I could see.
I looked around,there was a glow-a warm red one. it was comforting,just being near it made me feel better, I walked towards it,gazing at the glow.
The little one is drawing near, I think I'll toy with this one…
The glow stopped for a moment.
"Hello? Is any-"
I was cut off sort by a blast of hot air,that knocked me back.
In place of the glow,there was now a bat like monster-it was bipedal,but about ten feet tall.
It's empty eyes glowed red,and it had a collar that said "Hector".
"Now is the time you,die,small one." it spoke in a raspy,weezing tone.
I could barely move,but what I could do is walk back with my jaw at my knees.
"I think I'll eat those arms first,little one."
I fumbled around my coat,trying desperately to find something of use Captain had given me.
I puled out the first thing I felt.
Lucky grab,it was a smoke bomb.
I ignited it,and sprinted back. Now I was lost too,and I couldn't find the exit,but at least he was blind.
"Echolocation is a beautiful thing,small one." I heard that horrid voice echo around the cave, I couldn't tell where It came from.
I backed into a fuzzy wall,presumable his last meal,decaying.
And then it breathed down my neck.
I ran as fast as I could,as the bat monster was on my tail. his glowing eyes actually lit my path,and the cavern was huge.
It was as big as a stadium at least,with stalactites and a small rumbling noise in the distance.
A small rumbling noise?
I almost died there,there where two of them-but this one's eyes glowed white,and it was getting closer.
I stopped,and the bat kept going. While it realized what I had done,i hid under a car's corpse-it seemed it ate more than people.
The rumbling from the other bat was unbearably large in the echoing cave,mixed with the deep breathing of the first.
I peeked out,and I grinned.
It wasn't another bat.
It was a taxi.
It rammed into the bat's side,which it obliterated,and came over to me.
I got up overflowing with joy,and patted it's hood some more.
It rubbed into my good knee,purring like a cat.
"How'd you get in here?" I asked it.
It turned around and put it's headlights on brightly,illuminating the cave.
It was actually an underground parking hotel, and the stalactites that formed there where made by nature. there was an entrance far off,made for cars.
I smiled again "Will I see you again?"
It purred more and nodded,and slowly wheeled away.
"In that case,farewell for now."
It honked its horn in a happy manner,and sped off.
After finding the exit,I crawled out and the light stung my eyes.
"So Skank,what's in it?"
"Not much,just a bat."

"Just a bat,eh?"
Skank nodded "Yeah,and some dust."
Jostin looked at me,and we both shrugged,and went on our way.
I noticed a few blocks ahead,there was a fire hydrant,with a pigeon about 3 yards away from it.
It was odd,a fire hydrant in a place where there is no people.
"Lookit that. Don't you think it seems out of place?"
Suddenly,a tongue shot out of the side of it,and grabbed the pigeon. The pigeon flew around madly,and the tongue bashed it against the sidewalk a few times. The bird went still,and the hydrant dragged its tongue back into its mouth.
"Oh."
Nearing the tower, Jostin spoke out again.
"It's a shame Blubber couldn't be here"
"Yeah,he'd be done by now."
Jostin raised his stickly finger.
"I forgot to give you something,Blubber wanted me to give it to you."
"Oh?" This was a surprise,Blubber was nice and all-but too manly to give gifts.
It was a purple velvet bag,and it had a seal on it.Upon further inspection,it was the same as on his flag.
"It's more than just a fancy bag,open it."
I eagerly grabbed it,and pulled out a floating,radiating picture of a me,but smaller.and with purple skin .
I gasped.Blubber had bought me an avatar.
"Nice one.Let's see how it looks,eh?"
"I think I'll save it for him."
Skank nodded,it was a cruel reminder that we were still fighting him soon.
By the time our conversation ended,we were at the front doors.
We all sort of stared at them,and finally Jostin pushed one open.
He held the door open,and in we went.

It was completely empty, and the lights were painfully bright. The walls were white as well, so it looked very modern…Very out of place.
On the other wide of the wall facing the door, was a sleek silver elevator.
We walked over, still shocked from the change in atmosphere, and clicked the button with the up arrow.
After a few moments, it finally opened, revealing it to be just as polished, the walls were the same silver and the floor was marble. We walked in silently, like observing a piece of art in a museum. Clicking the button again, it slowly began to ascend, playing slow elevator music. When it finally reached the top, it opened up to a long, long hall. Skank and Jostin nodded, and I slowly stepped out of the elevator.
"We'll see you later, yeah?"
I nodded hopefully and walked on.
The hall was bigger than physics would have allowed it, since it was in a tower.
I noticed as I went on, it seemed to stay the same length, and Jostin and Skank were simply staring at me, getting smaller and smaller.
The air was thick with cleaning chemicals, and I had a recollection of everything, from Jostin killing the bus, to me waking up in my flat in Dead pool.
Finally, I reached the end.
The door was a plain black, with a shiny handle, nothing too fancy about it.
I could run if I wanted to.
I could smash the elevator and kill them both, and say it was him.
I could just run back and tackle them, and force them into secrecy.
I shook my head.
Whatever the door was made of was giving me an uneasy feeling.
I bit my lower lip, and still clutching the velvet box I opened the door.
I walked in; the room was at least twice as big as the arena.
The ceiling was a geodesic dome, like in an observatory. The floors were black and white, and checkered. The walls were a black wood, and at the other side of the room, he sat on his throne.
His spiky blonde hair oozed evil, as did his fake smile.
"Welly, well. If it isn’t you."
A small number popped up above his head, 192789783.Slowly, the three changed to four.
192789784.
"As I recall, you never had anything to eat. Care for anything?"
The four changed to five.
"Enough mind games, get up and fight me."
He sighed, and got off his throne.
"Very well then Tristan, I suppose it’s for the best."
Six.
Without warning, a large pillar shot out of the ground under me, sending me flying into the air.
Five.
He laughed "Dead already?"
I got up; the pillar must have been jagged, because I was bleeding.
I pulled out the box, quivering.
Inside the avatar was still in, and shining.
"Not for long."
I pushed it onto my hand, and it slid across the rest of my body.
I was now half my regular size, and purple.
A feeling of adrenaline washed over me, I felt that it would have been a better idea to scale the tower rather than go up the stairs.
He raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"
Six.
I ran at him full speed, and smashed by skull into his gut.
He flew back in that position, and toppled into the throne.
He got up, visibly winded.
"Not as clever as…you think you are."
The piece of the dome that was directly above me fell down, and the walls on both sides of me shot out.
I flipped back, just in time to…Not die.
This new avatar seemed to have a limitless amount of energy.
The walls came back to the regular places, and he had a shocked look on his face.
5, 4, 3.
I jumped at him, with the intent of caving his skull in.
My fist met his head, and…Bounced off.
He merely grinned maniaclly, and began to laugh.
2.
"You see, my submissions keep me alive. And I still have a million to go."
