Codename BAN-TYO
Codename BAN-TYO
All was calm. The afternoon sky was clear, with only a couple of clouds rolling past by and by. The sun shone down, spreading its light over the sea of forest below. An endless ocean of trees stretched as far as the eye could see, obscuring the ground beneath from view almost entirely. Still, the sun's rays seemed to find every nook and cranny, lighting up the forest-floor with bright specks and thin beams of light.
Under the treetops, a soft, rhythmic padding could be heard. Dozens of soldiers came into view, marching in tune with each other. They proceeded through the dense forest quietly, not a word being uttered. The only possible alert to their presence was the soft sound their feet made as they walked and the large size of their company.
There were soldiers of all sorts: a squadron of Commandramon surrounding the group, nearly a dozen Sealsdramon mingled with their Commandramon-brethren, a handful of Mekanorimon (each piloted by a Commandramon), several Guardromon placed within the ranks, a couple of Tankmon, and a single Tankdramon made up their small faction. At their head marched an Andromon.
They were the D-Brigade, soldiers of the Machine Empire. And they were here on a mission. An enemy of the Empire, "Codename BAN-TYO", as he was called, was reported to be active in this general vicinity. They had orders to kill him and anyone with him.
Little did they know, however, that they were being watched.
============
A large BanchoLeomon slid down behind a massive boulder, landing nimbly beside his brother, a Leomon. Placing a huge hand on the smaller Leomon's shoulder, the BanchoLeomon murmured, "They're here, Frey. Time to put the plan into action."
Without waiting for a response, the BanchoLeomon continued, "It's a relatively small group. Shouldn't be too much of a problem. I'm not taking any chances, though. You know the drill, right? I give the signal, Jimmy, Achilles, and Sunda will appear and set fire to our dear friends. Then come the long-ranged guys, Zell, Dias, and Gazpacho. They'll unleash everything they've got...and the rest of us will finish the job."
The BanchoLeomon closed his eyes and whispered, "Justice will be served."
And with that, Babel Leorius disappeared into the forest.
==========
As the D-Brigade came into a clearing, they found themselves surrounded by trees on every side. The Andromon called them to a halt and sent two Sealsdramon to scout out the area. They waited for several moments before a loud crash caught their attention. All eyes turned to the top of an enormous hill that loomed over the treetops and the clearing below. Atop this hill stood a silhouetted form against the afternoon sun. Every member of the D-Brigade recognized him instantly.
He held a Sealsdramon by the neck in each hand. With a swing of his arms, he flung them effortlessly into the forests below. Now looming ominously above his enemies, the BanchoLeomon fixed his gaze on the small army.
The Andromon who led them took a step back and whispered, "Codename BAN-TYO..."
Babel Leorius threw back his head and unleashed a savage roar that shook the foundations of the forest and sent chills up the spines of his enemies. The lion's thunderous roar resounded across the treetops and through the dense woods below. Before the D-Brigade, very much taken aback by their enemy's sudden appearance, could open fire, three forms erupted (quite literally) from among the trees.
They spread fire everywhere they went, imprisoning the D-Brigade in a torturous inferno.
"Sunda! Achilles!" shouted one of the three fire-spreaders, tearing through the soldiers with deadly flames. "Catch 'em in a ring! I'll take middle!"
In an explosion of fire, the FlameWizardmon leaped over the heads of several enemies, raining smoldering embers down on them as he went. He landed in the center of the now-chaotic army, a wicked grin plastered all over his face.
Jimmy Inferno raised his hands high, decorating each fingertip with a red-hot fireball.
"Fire Cloud!" he bellowed, unleashing all of his blazing might on the surrounding soldiers. They cried out in agony as tongues of fire mercilessly lashed out at them. Among the writhing D-Brigade stood Jimmy Inferno, the FlameWizardmon, laughing maniacally. "Kahahahahahahahahahaha! Fire Cloud! Fire Cloud! Fire Cloud!"
((OOC: Okay, guys, time to jump into the action! It doesn't matter if you're not one of the fire-spreaders or the long-ranged guys. Just jump out and start attacking.))
