Chapter 4:
Attack on Diamond Harbor
[Quig POV]
Greebles are attacking Diamond Harbor! We need to get there, fast! I should ask Grey for the carts. They are pretty fast. Or we could take the boats. We do have a good sized dock by the base’s lake.
“Sir, we need to take the boats. They’re the fastest things we can use. How about the big ship and five smaller boats that we can take?” said Quig. “You have some crazy little ideas in that mind of yours. But they are good ideas. Take Captain Nigel, he’s the best sailor in the MDF. I’ll call one hundred soldiers to take with you. But I don’t want Graid there. She’s be acting a little off.” said Grey. He wanted this mission to succeed. And he wants Traax to know that his followers aren’t a big deal. “Thanks General!” said Quig, happy to be in the action.
“Okay seadogs! Let’s get this show on the road!” yelled Captain Nigel. Nigel was a great fighter, until Arkeyan snipers shot his chest a couple of times in his younger years. It took awhile to get back on his feet. He was a wreck after he got out of the hospital. He killed five innocent people. He was “trying to help”. The MDF Medical Squad saved his life. It turns out he had brain damage. They fixed him, and the trainers trained him to fight once again. He started to lead the Navy, and was great at doing so.
The boat ride took forever! Three hours on a boat with fifty others. They finally got there and saw that the harbor was destroyed. Rubble was everywhere. Greebles took just about every weapon the could find. But these weren’t regular Greebles. They had gold helmets and daggers. They were faster, and they weren’t purple like the Evilized Greebles, they were a reddish orange color. They were just a bit bigger than the others. Quig killed three of them that were floating in the water. “There are way too many for us to take out!” said Chomp. Chomp was practically eating them. He killed five in the first three seconds on Diamond Harbor. Starr was stab-happy (a form of stabbing invented by Stealth Elf) and took out two at a time. Chrome shot laser balls and killed larger waves. Soldiers were everywhere, shooting, stabbing, screaming, bleeding and crying. But they were getting the job done.
An hour into the battle and one third of the Greebles were dead. Some ran off into the woods, while others swam away in the river. Quig lead a team of soldiers onto the pier. That way they could shoot from a farther distance and didn’t get hurt. A huge horn sounded and the Greebles ran away. The troops thought they were safe, but a ton of Greeble Ironclads jumped out of the bushes and violently swung at the MDF fighters. It was an immense battle. A half of the soldiers were injured, three of them were dead. Traax has fully planned this out. He has thousands of minions at his command. But he has never been seen. He has everything from Chompies to Greebles. Trogs to Trolls. Gillmen to Stingrays. He has many civilizations under his control.
[Quig POV]
Where is Captain Nigel? And where did Traax get these Greebles? How did he get them here? Is he here? Where is he, exactly?
General Grey called Quig. He asked about the battle. But Quig said nothing. He was too busy command the troops. “Sorry, sir. We haven’t had the best of times here. I’ve lost seven men and fifty-six are injured.” said Quig, over the phone. “I’m not wasting soldiers on this mission. You’ll have to take care of the Greebles yourself. I’m calling a retreat for the troops and Captain Nigel. You can stay there.” said Grey. He was very unhappy with the results. He wanted to send help, but he couldn’t spend fighters like that. “I have an idea. Call in the Back Up.” said Quig. “You mean the old hillbillies? I guess I could call them.” said Grey. He hasn’t fought with the Back Up since the war of 1987. Grey liked their leader, Groblin, and was good friends with him.
The Back Up didn’t arrive for seven hours. The Five killed off at least two hundred Greebles. They had to hide because they were so tired. They hadn’t taken a break since they left on the ship. Starr wasn’t too happy about the ships retreating. But one question remained: Where was the Back Up?
[Starr POV]
Ughh! I could so stab someone right now. I’m tired of killing Greeble. They’re too easy. We need Groblin and his team.
[Chomp POV]
I am soo hungry.
[Chrome POV]
Why wasn’t Graid allowed to come? And where’s our Back Up?
Quig saw a huge cloud of dust hit the sand. He knew it was Groblin. Quig had known Groblin since he was a rookie. Groblin was known for liking bombs, like Boomer. There were at least four hundred fighters. They killed the remaining Greebles within minutes. “Sorry for the long wait, we wanted to grab the whole gang.” said Groblin. “Thanks, Grob. Thank you for all the help. I guess it was worth the wait.” said Quig, who smiled in delight.
Well, I hope you guys enjoy the story so far! Sorry for so long of a wait, I was grounded when I was going to upload.
I can't promise any more chapter dates, sorry.
