Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Colonel's Plight.

At a huge room within a modern-looking steampunk tall and wide, glass walled cylindrical container, a huge Titan sized brown-skinned scaly creature with giant arms, on two legs and a tail. About 40 feet tall, he was frozen in ice to the brim within it, carrying big fangs and a grotesque face.

Surrounded by a black concrete walled rectangular room, with iron railings and platforms attached to the top surfaces, the well lit area made Victor alongside a bald, tall and fair-skinned man in a lab coat look small, steadily walking down to the prison.

Victor's brows raised, eyeing the beast. "Absolutely gorgeous." His hands touched the transparent piece on approaching it. "I hope you haven't told the others yet."

"About what exactly?"

"This earth bending monstrosity." He swiftly turned to the light-toned." I'm afraid the last survivors of New Terra will find a way to exploit it if you did."

"Well, that would be a shame… and it also is how much they want to tear apart Optimum for Planet Shaper to fully transform our world, only because we took what was theirs."

"Oh, they won't." Victor froze cold and stern red eyes at the monster. "A tournament for all Elemental Kaiju's is coming… and when I get my rewards to power this one."

The kaiju's face glowed in ice.

"I alone will swallow that princess."

At this, its green eyes flashed open, glistening orange in seconds, as a fight awaited.

Meanwhile, down a short flight of narrow wooden stairs next to a brown wall, Stephen, in a blue shirt and shorts, drowsing stepped down the structure, rubbing eyes before entering a large room with big orange sofas placed in a square formation and a red embroidered mat. In there a dark skinned and fit athletic woman with long red hair sat. Opposite her on a chair was Victor, in a long and black leather jacket.

"Stephen honey, I think you may know one of Optimum's former secretaries." The lady motioned to him.

"I'd love to get to this," Victor waved. "But we've got bigger problems to face… Stephen, as far as the fate of your brother and his friends trapped in the Minecraft verse can be at stake, I believe that would be as important as you having a kaiju that we need to train for a tournament… to defeat an alien force from a different planet and Colonel Edeagwu's dragon, immediately.

Stephen just stared at him, before facing the woman.

"Mom, what is he talking about?"

"Everything."

He stood up. "Chigozie is gonna help your brother to help stop Colonel, but we…" He scanned his eyes across the family.

"We're winning an epic tournament."

Later, beneath a massive rubble of huge rocks and wood in pitch-black darkness of the star-lit night sky, Chigozie lay below the pile, battered and bruised, while Lillian stood above him, eying the poor man as she grinned.

"Personally, I don't know why I hoped you'd get the idea already." Her body sparkled "I come here to serve my god by ending you swiftly, thus delivering kaiju to him."

"First off," Chigozie coughed. "He shouldn't be worshipped… we have one already… Secondly, kaiju guards this world from galactic and multiversal threats… You know not what you're doing."

"Please." Lillian's palm raised. "Definitely, I will be taking you and you alone for questioning and research, then."

She turned her head to the moon. "Now I wonder what Colonel is up to down there."

From there, the view panned fast to the sky, sparking a new scene, with a transiting camera effect, flashing diamond wedding ring atop a coarse wooden surface with hard lantern light atop it.

Shadows moved across the object, probably a curvy woman. "Colonel, we're definitely gonna raise kaiju to run the multiverse, I can feel it."

In a medium sized, orange wooden walled and cooly-aired room, on a brown sofa sat a dark-skinned and long blue haired fit woman in a green dress with Colonel, in white clothes resting his head on her lap, facing a brick walled campfire on the opposite end.

"I don't want to go 'run the world'." he frowned mutely. "I just want a kingdom for them to have their place in society… Snow, I thought you'd know this."

"Of course I do." She sighed. "But also, you need to understand that Light isn't going to give you everything you need with this dream… that's why I serve Al'illah Almuktaar."

"Don't tell me about him!" He harked softly, sitting up. "He cursed me."

"He gave you spectral vision… the least he could do before you withdrew from him."

Snow turned him to her gently. "Light's father is as ruthless as he proves to be justifiable in his ways… Oh, just someday, I'll have to be the one to show you one way or another."

"Whatever you say Snow… Whatever you say."

With that, silence brooded, as the duo returned to their previous poses… before a black out.

"So you lost your beloved."

"VWOOP!"

Sometime elsewhere, in a huge grassy area, with little trees beneath the glowing evening sun, men in knight armour stormed in hordes as some flew back.

The maker of those movements was Colonel. Coated in dark purple and glistening scaly skinned with flaming lavender eyes, fangs and a massive matching reptilian arm that arched around him, flinging a soldier.

Black out.

"Where was he when he needed you?"

"THUMP!"

A smash to the ground with both fists morphed, as it shocked-waved enormously across the land!

In a second, a tall and shiny blue man appeared on his shoulder in lightning, before a massive blow, sending Colonel flying.

Tumbling black, he stopped before standing, staring with bloodied eyes at Segun 2 stone throws away from, with Hammer, Chisom and Farouk, side by side.

Hammer's brows went up, stepping forth with waved hands. "I don't get it, how are you The Ender Dragon…?! You're human and-."

"Fire bending kaiju of The First Order." The beastly villain snarled.

Baring claws, his huge dragon-like body as he stood on all 4's with giant wings flared, with its giant muscular 12 feet frame.

At this sight, the gang rooted in combat poses, glaring at the menace… The end game.

The fate of the lore.
