ROM 4: New Horizons

((I'll get this baby moving))

Elder Codo ran to the bow of the ship, shouting as we went
"We are here! We are here! We are about to pass threw the barrier!"

He bound towards the captain as the crew scrambled into a brace position

"EVERYONE HOLD ON! THIS IS GOING TO BE A BUMPY RIDE!"

The boat ride remained smooth for a few seconds, Shauni and the other looking around, sensing a false lull.
They where right as so suddenly the boat was cast into a raging sea storm

"EVERYONE HOLD ON! ITS ONLY AN ILLUSION! ONCE WE PASS THREW THE BARRIER THE WEATHER WILL RETURN TO NORMAL!"

The boat was tossed and spun around in very manor of the compass, and for moments flow in the air as it was cast upwards by a wave.

The boat began to creak and strain under the assault...

Shauni could feel herself losing her grip when suddenly....the ocean was still and the sun shone brightly

"What the??"

Elder Codo released his vice like grip from the railing and sighed
"Few....I hate crossing that barrier...anyway, everyone...welcome to the vast ocean of Cap-Cannon. In about another hours of sailing we will hit the port of Astley. Rest up. To say the port is shady is an understatement. Its full of hard nosed sailors who wouldn't think twice to using your liver as a garnish..."

"How does he know so much?" *Josiah glanced suspiciously at Codo.* "This area wasn't part of the original game. I suppose I could see him knowing about the barrier but how would he know about a city?"

"Aren't you being a little too suspicious?" *Virgo frowned.*

"Maybe or may not. Either way, after running into so many imposters and possessed people it's hard not to get a little paranoid."

Afew hours later they arrived in Astley Sea Port. Though Neo had never been to the place before he had heard of it. It was an intresting town in the way it was built. Though the land around it is what made it unusual. For starters it was built inside the mountain. But it just soo happens to be a giant hole on the outside of the mountain that let in light, rain, snow, ect... so it was almost as if it was built outside but with some protection. Then there was a large hole where the water flowed out into the land and eventually flowed and split. One part of the river headed over to D-Edge. Funny how things seem to turn out. Though Neo was glad the river didn't flow into the forest. Though there seemed to be some dark/shadow monsters living in the vast ocean that the river empied into and they did have to deal with them time to time. Neo just couldn't shake off the feeling that something else was comming again.

*The gamers bid farewell to Codo then disembarked as the boat prepared to return home. Josiah quickly took charge.*

"Ok guys, it's late afternoon so it'd be best if we spent the night here then started out tomorrow. But first, we've got some things to do. We'll need to break into groups for this. Um, hope you guys don't mind me giving the orders here."

"Nah. Saves us the trouble."

"Well, anyway, Silver, Opal, and Jeff will be the first group. Your job is to check out the stores around here. Get any supplies you think we might need for the journey and also see if there's anything interesting that they don't sell back home, especially if it's a weapon or something for monsters. Shauni, Neo, and David, I want you guys to start out by finding us a place to stay tonight. After that talk with the locals a bit and see if you can find out anything useful. Virgo and I are going to take a look around the city and do some questioning of our own. We'll all meet at that statue over there in three hours."

"Alright." Opal smiled as the trio left to see the shops.

"I hope they have some place to eat." Silver commented as he placed his hand over his stomach.

"I'm sure they do." Jeff said to Silver as they left the group and started to head intown.

Shauni, Neo, and David headed off to look for a place to stay and to mingle with the towns people.

"So how should we go about doing this? I suggest we go talk to the locals to find info and to find a place to stay at the same time. What do you guys think?"

Post by **Josiah** » Sat Jan 21, 2006 3:04 pm

*Josiah and Virgo headed off in a different direction and were soon far away from the docks.*

"Why did you break everyone into groups like that?" *Virgo asked curiously.* "You could have just said what needed to be done and let them decide who would do what."

"Just being careful." *Josiah paused to glance at a nearby sign.* "I figured it would be best to keep Jeff and Shauni apart, at least for now. Also, I'm a bit worried about Shauni and Neo..."

"And I'm guessing we're on our own because you want to check the reports, right?"

"Sorta. I'd like you to check the reports." *He reached into his pocket, removed a small object that vaguely resembled a whistle, and handed it to Virgo.* "Find a good spot and let me know what you learn."

"And where are you going to be?" *She eyed him curiously.*

"I want to check out a building I saw from the boat. It looked like a fighting arena. If it is, I'll try and watch a few matches. After all, there may be some monsters or attacks on this continent that we've never seen before. The more we know the better."

"It figures." *Virgo rolled her eyes.* "And I suppose you're just going to watch and not join in?"

"Well, maybe a battle or two just for research..."

*Virgo shook her head. While he did have a valid point, it was just like him to rush off whenever there were battles and new opponents.* "Ok, ok. Just remember the time limit."

"I will!" *Josiah nodded as he ran off.* "See you later!"

Shauni scratched her head
"I'm not sure we should ask some of the locals here..." she stated as she glanced at some rough looking dock workers
"I think we should find a nice district first...then ask around...."
She looked towards the mountain part of the dock that was built up slightly
"Up there" she said as she pointed
"But I suggest we don't use any speical powers while where here...we don't want to attract attention to ourselfs..."
Shauni closed her eyes as they group started walking to the better looking area of the dock. Something stank about the way Josiah had seporated the group as he had in an unknown area. She wondered what exactly he was up to....
Her eyes glowed a dark shade of gray as suppsion grew in her mind...

*The first thing Josiah noticed upon reaching the arena was the massive crowds of people. The second was a booth with a sign labled registration.*

"Hey you, want to register for the mini tournament, it's free?" *The man in the booth called.*

*Although he had been planning to watch some battles first, the offer was too good to refuse.* "I'm in." *Josiah hurried over.* "Are all the tournaments here free?"

"You must be an out of towner not to know. Monsters Inc., the city's largest monster battling shop, is hosting this event as a special promotion. Everyone is divided into groups of four, it's single elimination. If you win your group you get to fight one of the store's master trainers. You get different prizes depending on how far you get."

"Awesome!" *Josiah finished filling out the form and headed off in the direction the man indicated.*

*The arena was quite large and held lots of small battle fields, where the initial battles took place, and a large arena not unlike the one back on his island where the matches against the master trainers were held. Josiah followed the signs and was soon assigned to a group consisting of a young boy and two teenage girls. Several minutes later another employee arrived with their match order. The first battle was Josiah against one of the girls. Matches were one and one, to save time, but the monsters had to be chosen before the battle began so you didn't know what type your opponent would be using.*

"Go Sky Flare!" *The girl summoned a fire bird type monster that Josiah had encountered a couple of times before.*

"Hmm... I don't have a lot of time so I'd better make this quick..." *Josiah muttered.* "Go Yggdrasil! Pebble Rain!" *The girl, who glancing at several cards in her hand, didn't have time to react as the pebbles fell from the sky, forcing her monster lower.*

"Flame Charge!" *She abandoned the cards long enough to order an attack. Sky Flare dipped down even further, turned into a blazing fireball, and launched itself at Yggdrasil.*

"Rock Crusher!" *The boulder hit Sky Flare mid attack, knocking it into the ground for a KO. The other match, held in the next field ended several minutes later. Josiah's next match, against the remaining girl, went by almost as quickly with Hell Fire taking down a Voltage King.*

"Impressive." *The overseer commented as he led Josiah towards the main arena where the master trainers were waiting for their next opponent.* "You won both of those battles so quickly without even using spell cards."

"Wait... Spell cards?" *Josiah asked but the man was already pushing him through a doorway and into the main arena where a tall main with fiery red hair was waiting.*

"Congratulations on making it here." *The man smilled amiably.* "This battle will be three on three and you can use whatever monsters you want. Do your best kid, just don't expect me to go easy on you. Afterall, Monsters Inc. doesn't pay me to lose.*

Silver, Opal, and Jeff explored the town, not really seeing anything out of the ordinary for a while. There was a weapon shop, a bakery, and an attack orb store. And a bunch of other stuff.

"Wait a minute... did we just pass a Starbucks?!"

"Wow. I knew they were all over the place, but in a video game-based dimension?"

"Well that's weird..."

"You're telling me!"

"No, look at that."

"Spell Cards? That's hardly weird compared to a fudge crackerin' Starbucks."

"Do you know what a Spell Card is?"

"No..."

"Well, there you have it. We've been here for years... we should have at least heard of them by now."

"This is the kind of stuff Josiah sent us to look for. Come on, let's check it out!"

The small shop was decorated as if for Halloween, and upon entering, one of those motion-sensitive robo-bats (though it was the Orca version of a bat and clearly Zubat rip-off) dropped from the cieling and made some stupid sound. Scared Silver half to death which Opal found funny, but Jeff didn't seem to be amused.

"Mwahahaha... prepare to meet your doom! Or at least the doom of all your cash. You can't leave without one of these!" the loon of a shop keeper shouted, gesturing to a shelf covered in cards of all different colors.

"What ARE they?"

"Spell Cards, of course! Did you READ the sign?"

"And what do they DO?"

"Ah, but the question is what DON'T they do? Look at this one here - it's called Holy Healing. It'll restore all of a Light-typed monster's health in battle! Then this one here - Element Shield - will reduce damage from attacks of your opponent's type. Up Flame makes fire attack stronger, Mobilize will cure a paralyzed or frozen monster and temporarily increase its speed, Poison Pin will-"

"Yeah, yeah, I get it. But... why haven't we seen anything like these anywhere before?"

"Many of these specific cards are exclusive to my... humble... shop, but Spell Cards are all over Astley Port and the other areas around here... you've got to be a blind moron to have never seen one of these before!"

"Hey, we're not blind morons! ...Well, we're not blind, at least..."

"Silver, will you shut up already?"

"Let's just buy a few and show them to everyone else when we meet up in a couple hours."

As the small group moved to where shauni had pointed Neo suddenly remembered something. Quicky he dug into a pocket not where he'd been keeping his monster cards. He looked at them and smiled. His other cards had came back to normal. "I guess they only work in this region." he said to himself. He dug out his deck of cards and comined the two stacks together. Metalmorph seemed to notice. "Hey did you do what I think you did?"

"Yes..."

"Ya!" Metalmorph almost jumped into the air.

"Gesh don't need to get all worked up about it."

"Well it's just we get to use my favorit card again."

"Seems so. But man. You really are like a little kid."

Post by **Celebifly** » Sun Jan 22, 2006 8:47 pm

Opal looked at the new cards with a curious look.
"I wonder why we haven't seen these cards before...as if they're new to the game, like an update. You know in Pokemon they update sprites, attacks, add new pokemon....is this like that?" Opal asked as she awed the Strenghten Steel. 

"Well, as I see it...a wizard did it?"

Opal rolled her eyes.

"Well, we got a lot. Let's head back to the group..." Jeff intructed as they gathered the cards and looked for the rest of the group.

*The battle begin almost immediately with the master trainer summoning an Ice Coldy. Not wanting to go all out just yet, Josiah used Hell Fire. At first the battle progressed normally enough until...*

"What the?!?" *Ice Coldy suddenly vanished moments before Hell Fire could deal a deciding blow.* "Ice Coldys aren't that fast and I don't hear the guy call an attack..."

"You've got a strong monster there!" *The opposing trainer called.* "But all that strength is useless if you can't land a hit. So, what do you think of my Illusionary Invisability card?"

"Card?" *It was then that Josiah noticed that the man was holding several cards in his hands like the previous trainers had. Taking a closer look, he could see that they were similiar to monster cards but the coloring was different.* "So, I guess there are some different rules here..." *Although curious, this wasn't the time to ask about the cards. The battle came first and Hell Fire was taking a lot of hits.* "Hell Fire, you don't need to see it! Use Magma Ocean!!!"

*The master trainer's grin quickly vanished as a wave of lava washed over the entire field. Ice Coldy was KO instantly, regaining visibility right before returning to its card.*

*As the battle progressed, the man used more of the strange cards. His second monster regained full health just as it was about to be KO'd and then was given a tremendous speed boost, allowing it to KO Hell Fire. Josiah defeated it with Electriblast only to end up facing a Wing Drake whose every attack could poison. However, thanks to the Electric Heaven Electricuter combo, he managed to win the match without having to summon a third monster.*

*The trainer walked over to him after the match.* "I really underestimated you kid. You must be a pro. Beat me with two monsters and no spell cards. Didn't think that was even possible. Well, here's your prize. Take care."

"About those cards..." *Josiah started but the man had already walked off. He frowned then looked down at the item the man had handed him. It was a pack of cards. Opening it up, Josiah found three of the strange cards along with an instruction sheet.* "Spell cards?" *He began to read.*

*As it turned out, the cards could be used during battle. Some effected your monster and others the opponent's and there were a variety of different effects. However, each card could only be used once per battle (they had to recharge between uses) and you could only bring five into battle with you (a rule probably enforced by the game's coding). Also, you weren't aloud to use more than one of any card in your 'deck'.*

*Virgo met Josiah soon after he left the arena. She talked for a few minutes before giving Josiah back the object he had given her earlier. He filled her in on what had happened then they headed to the meeting place. Josiah was eager to tell the others about his new discovery.*

((The cards I got are... Supreme Haste, doubles a monster's speed. Syphon Touch - allows a monster to drain health from opponents while touching them. Final Charge - when a monster is about to be KO'd its attack power doubles.)) ((This will be fun, we can trade cards and everything ^_^ ))

Shauni and the others had reached the "better" area of the deck when Shauni noticed a shop that was set up with the name "Spell Cards by Monster Inc"

She wondered over to the shop without a word of warning and was soon separated from Neo and David.

She first found an information sheet about "Spell cards" and was presently surprised to find you could use 'spell cards' like items.

She took out her measly wooed of mon and began to shop. She picked out two cards and headed over to the till.

They were on a special offer "Buy two get a monster card free"
She purchased a "Devin Inspiration", which increased a monsters strength and "Hazard a Guess" which made copies of the monster, which upped its evasion.

The rough looking store clerk took the money and handed over the free monster card
It was a teen level monster she had never seen before. It was of the light/ darkness elements and it was called a Panzer

Post by **Neo Zanther** » Wed Jan 25, 2006 7:03 pm

Neo and them (after calming Metalmorph down) arrived at the spot they were heading towards. But then Shauni wondered off leaving Neo and David alone. Then Neo spoted a sign in the distance that sold spell cards. Shauni had moved in that direction. Apparently she spoted the store. Neo stayed with David for abit.

"By they way Neo, what was your monster so happy about?" asked David.

"Well it was cause these can be used again." said Neo digging his monster and spell cards from his pocket.

"What are they?"

"They are what is called Spell Cards. Basicly they add either an ability to your monster or supports them in some way. For instance this spell card here *points to a heal card* has the ability to heal any monster you have. Though it is rare to get one. Usually there are healing cards for every type. I got it as a present from my village. How they were able to find one I still havn't figured out. Then there are cards like the one Metalmorph was happy about. They can for 1 turn replace one attack on your card with the attack on the spell card. This one can be used by Metal monsters and is a favorit of Metalmorph, though I didn't find this out til he talked. I have afew other support cards but you are limited to how many you can have in your deck and how often you can use it in battle."

Neo continuned to talk to David about all this.
