Part 9

He was heading towards xXRascalXx.  Though enveloped in his lust for death, flesh, and destruction, he is still aware of his situation.  The army of Clan EAFH is attacking, and he is caught in its path.  Clan EAFH had caused so much destruction in the past, that even the foulest creatures ever to see the light from the sun have tried banding together to fight this plague upon the land.  Though, even with combined powers, all previous attempts have failed.  The soldiers of the army itself are not the primary reason, though.  The real power of the clan’s army comes from its leaders, and the Night Fire Forces.  Gimpy14, a large skeletal creature, is able to raze building in seconds and turn the area around him into a field of flames.  OLDCHIPPER, a large centipede-like monster, can burrow through mountains and turn hills into craters with his tremendous digging and blasting powers.  2Good2Bad, a strategist, commands a large artillery unit in the back of the army with a range of 5 miles, and each explosion of an artillery shell spilling molten rock 10 yards from the impact point.  The Night Fire Forces, with their overwhelming strength and death aura, plague the lands they cross and leave it a black, burning plain of death.  And finally xXRascalXx, the leader of Clan EAFH, has powers only the gods were thought to possess, and with his nearly impenetrable armor and earth mace, he leaves nothing but wreckage where he travels.  This is the power Streak fears, and for obvious reasons.  But Streak now has a mission, and that is to take out xXRascalXx, for he is the only one holding up the clan now.  There were originally 3 creators of the clan, all 3 of which started out as normal humans.  They were Mike, John, and Jerry.  On an expedition in the Mountain of Norington, they discovered a secret well, with unholy powers.  They approached the well, and granted a wish for a life without fear of anyone else.  Their wish was granted, for instead of them fearing everyone, everyone was to be made to fear them. Mike, John, and Jerry were transformed into the creatures they are now, and after the transformation gave themselves new names.  Mike picked the name Gimp14, for he was the shorter one of the group and 14 was his favorite number.  John was granted the name OLDCHIPPER, for he was the oldest in the group and cut wood for a living.  Jerry was granted the name xXRascalXx, because he was the most mischievous of the three, and he enjoyed the way the lowercase and uppercase X’s signified the basis for a pyramid, for he used to study the pyramids of Egypt.  With their new powers they first gained followers, and converted some of their most faithful followers into demon-like creatures themselves, such as 2Good2Bad.  His name used to be Gerald, but he chose the name 2Good2Bad for he had a very absolute mind, meaning it’s either one way or the other, and he always dealt with something being overdone.  Eventually, xXRascalXx’s powers grew, and he was able to summon his own soldiers and begin his mission for conquest.  Streak himself used to be a member of the clan, and knows all too well of its powers.  Streak used to be the #7 of the clan, for his wit and his overall skills with lightening and knowledge of his own Dark Side.  But after a while he betrayed the clan when they tried to attack a peaceful city.  Streak, before his betrayal, was granted a force of 10,000 soldiers to serve under his command.  Streak, unknown to the clan, tipped off the defenders of the city that he was going to lead his forces to an area where they were surrounded and easily defeated.  Streak then ran back to xXRascalXx, and attempted to assassinate him right there.  But xXRascalXx had sensed Streak’s plot earlier, and was prepared for his attack.  In the end, the clan left the area defeated, but 5 days later they came back and overwhelmed the city.  Streak, failing in his attempt to kill xXRascalXx, was barely able to flee with his life.  3 months later he met Eric and Rainthan, and soon after that he met the others.  Streak and the others became friends, and lived happily together.  But one day, Streak’s daunting past came back to haunt him.  A Clan EAFH assassin named Mega Brawl was on a scouting mission to look for new places to attack. Streak was hiking up some of the mountains the day Mega Brawl encountered the rest of the group.  Upon seeing them, Mega thought that maybe they would know the whereabouts of Streak, for xXRascalXx had put a price on his head so large; almost every EAFH member was looking for him.  Also, finding Streak and bringing back his head would grant the finder a big promotion, one which included more powers and troops of their own.  Mega Brawl wanted that, so he confronted the small group of Mobians and demanded to know if they had ever seen or heard of a guy named Streak.  Feeling as if this person could bring harm to their friend, they asked Mega why he was looking for such a person.  Mega, getting irritated, told them he was going to kill him, and if any of them got in his way he would gladly kill any of them too.  With their fears realized, they ordered Mega Brawl to leave this place or else they would destroy him where he was.  Mega knew he was outnumbered, and didn’t know what kind of power the Mobians possessed, so he grudgingly walked away… swearing at the group as he left.  Upon Streak’s arrival back to the group, the others asked streak about this Mega Brawl person and why he wanted to kill him.  Streak’s darkest fears were realized, and he knew he would not be able to keep his secret from them any longer.  So that day he told them everything about Clan EAFH; the rise, his position in the clan, and how he betrayed them and came here.  He also told how Mega Brawl was one of his best friends in the clan, and fought beside him many times.  Streak then convinced the group to help him fight Mega Brawl, if he were to return.  Shuske was the first to agree to this, because he got pissed off earlier at Mega’s attitude towards them and eagerly wanted to kick some ass.  The others, relating back to Mega’s display of anger, also agreed and decided to help Streak against any Clan EAFH confrontations.  Streak new Mega Brawl would return, and set up a plan for the others to follow when he did.  But as Streak discussed his plan, Mega Brawl, about 10 miles away, summoned a messenger bird and sent it to xXRascalXx with the group’s coordinates.  He then returned to where he found the Mobians and was ambushed when eh arrived.  After a battle lasting 2 hours, he was finally defeated when Streak ripped out his skull and tossed it into the lake.  The next morning they disposed of Mega’s body by burying him in the mountains.  Everyone in the group thought the worst was over, but 8 days later the messenger bird arrived at xXRascalXx’s throne, and delivered the message.  xXRascalXx had finally found the whereabouts of the traitor that tried to kill him months ago, as well as another area to conquer.   That week he spent his time gathering up his troops, and then set his troops marching towards the other side of the country.  It would be 3 months before xXRascalXx’s troops would reach them, and the current battle would begin.  But in the second week after xXRascalXx and the rest of his troops set out, the group encountered yet another one of Streak’s old acquaintances.  This time, it was not a member from Clan EAFH, but a Cybertronian who went by the name Phase Breaker (see my DA gallery for picture).  Phase Breaker had been Streak’s rival for years, and had attacked the group several times within that same week.  He was mad that he did not get paid for his earlier job, which was destroying a supply cache belonging to an unknown group, and the people who hired him disappeared before he could kill them.  So when Phase found Streak and the others, he gladly started attacking them day after day, striking quickly and then running away, much like gorilla tactics.  Finally, one day, he was taken by surprise when he came back to attack again.  Shuske, Eric, and Altruis had attacked him from behind and almost killed Phase Breaker before Streak stopped them.  Streak gave Phase Breaker one last chance at life, and let him live if he agreed never to return.  Phase Breaker grudgingly accepted, and left the area badly damaged.  He would eventually recover, but keeping to his promise, he would not return.  Though evil, he still had a sense of keeping his honor.  Streak and the others never saw Phase Breaker again.  For a while after that, things were quiet.  Streak fell in love with Speedy, went to bed with her once a few nights before the battle.  But even so, Speedy did not want to get into a relationship with Streak, for reasons still unknown.  Even so, she still loved Streak, and he loved her back.  And this was the reason why she is needed for Eric’s plan.  Streak’s Dark Side has emerged before, but only his first dark form.  Even so, Eric still had a good feeling that this form could be defeated the same way the lesser form was defeated.  All he had to do was to find Speedy and get her to Streak.  But at the moment, speedy was nowhere to be found.
