Heroes Rising Fiction: Chase the Myth Part 18

 Nova led Lady Phoenix into the Arboretum with Chase, Gar, Quark, EB and Santa.“LORD DRAGON!” EB raced over to the leader of this group and shook him. “Wake up!”Nova stepped over to Cupid and looked down at the man, “are they… dead?”Lady Phoenix walked through, her body emanating an aura of fiery energy. “No, but it is like a state of death. Their power has been drained.”Gar asked, “is it in you still?”She knelt down and brushed her hand over Maneki-neko. “Not anymore. When Krampus put me...

Raid Conclusion: Lady Phoenix's Rage has ended...

by Chaz HamiltonID: 22349It is often spoken of, the evil that dwells in the hearts of everyone. A constant battle between the brilliance of light and the void of darkness as they attempt to overcome one another. It often seems effortless to be bad. To not care for anyone but yourself. And doing right and good takes effort. It isn’t easy to ignore the temptation to do wrong when nobody is watching. On the waters of the Atlantic, these desperate heroes have pushed themselves to defeat...

RAID UPDATE: Lady Phoenix's Rage (Day 2, Hour 13)

By Chaz HamiltonID# 22349We are into the wee hours of the night. Santa’s sleigh continues to orbit around the battle, as if he is waiting for the right moment to act. The heroes are between him and the Lady Phoenix. Just as the legendary creature, flames engulf this woman and act as appendages. Lethal appendages that have harmed many and possibly slain some. The battle is difficult to watch. Broken images play through the fire as heroes move toward her and disappear behind clouds of smoke and steam....

RAID UPDATES: Lady Phoenix's Rage (Hour 2 and Hour 4)

by Chaz HamiltonID:22349 RAID UPDATE: Hour 2 This battle is most likely the most brutal one our heroes have faced to date. I’m afraid that when all is said and done, there will be those who are successful at completing their task but no winners. Shortly after the heroes began to recover from their wounds during their engagement and defeat of Krampus, they have now been ordered by Director Nova to return to the same battlefield and face down the being...

RAID UPDATE: Lady Phoenix's Rage (Hour 8)

by Chaz HamiltonID# 22349B.A.D.G.E. instruments are top of the line. Portable Energy Scanners, Bio-kinetic Waveform detectors, sonic devices that do just about anything (except wood), and a variety of other great gadgets. You won’t find any stuff like this at Best Buy. While tracking the movement patterns and life-signs of our varied heroes, B.A.D.G.E. technicians also track the progress of the enemy combatants. And while Lady Phoenix has nearly overwhelmed each one of these devices, the data they...

RAID UPDATE: Lady Phoenix's Rage (Day 2)

By Chaz HamiltonID#22349 Observing the ongoing fight against Lady Phoenix isn’t like watching a league war match. I clearly can remember the enthusiasm and edge-of-your-seat passion of the crowd as the first double-overtime match ever played out. Then the next round, a day later, a second overtime match occurred. Everyone watching cheered or booed, depending on who they rooted for, once the final bell rang. Regardless of the outcome, the arena battles were a privilege to watch, seeing...

“Why is this happening? How did this go so wrong?” He thought to himself as he heard the deafening explosions, felt the intense heat, and saw the flashes of light.“Angela, I remember that day we found you. Cradled in the arms of a mother who gave her life for you. Yet a fire will still consume you in the end. What have I done?”The world swayed as the waves rocked harder under him. More heroes were joining the fray, but their comrades were battered and worn out.“Angela, I never meant this to happen....

Heroes Rising Fiction: Chase the Myth part 16

The shuttle zoomed down from the station, Santa already in his seat at the helm of the sleigh. Gar put his arms through the straps of a special harness designed by the BADGE official uniform creator. Quark helped him cinch it tight and then checked the lines connecting Gar to both the sleigh and Santa’s reins.“You sure this will hold?” Quark asked.Gar said, “the uniform creator makes all the hero costumes, and they withstand all kinds of damage.”“I suppose if it can design something to withstand...

 Xcentric crawled out of the ocean and flopped over on the beach. Near him, dozens of other heroes were in the same state of fatigue. He wasn’t a poor swimmer, but he was not ready for a trek this far. Many other heroes had gone out to rescue those fallen from the battle into the waters. He let them get to the injured first.Just then Zen came darting out of the waters and waddled up onto dry land. He shook hard to sling water off of him. “I enjoy swimming, but after four hours of this rescue...

PROMPT FICTION CONTEST WINNER -- Tri-Blade "Helpless to Save"

Everyone, please congratulate the first-place winner of the PROMPT Fiction Contest, Tri-Blade. Whoo-hoo. Good job, good job indeed!Rubbing a thumb around the green-coloured medal, now the third of that hue (and fourth of that placement) in his collection, Tri-blade sighed quietly. While he was relatively content with his individual performances in the competition, he wasn't fond of the team results. He was especially disappointed for one of his teammates who had yet to experience a round victory.Rosa...

RAID: Aftermath of Operation "Krampus Krush"

 ...This is Chaz Hamilton. Oh, my sweet lord, I’m so sorry. I don’t know if I can do this. I don’t believe it. I know… That’s… <pull it together, Chaz! You have a job to do.> Moments ago, I witnessed the mighty heroes who managed to bring Krampus to his knees. Winter’s Knight, Highlander, Apollyon 666, and Major William delivered the final blows that fell the villain. Moments ago, Krampus finally dropped to the floor of the reformed B.A.D.G.E. League Wars Arena, overcome by over...
