land around them has been so severly changed by the Arches they barley even reconize
it. Linkbob looked around seeing signs knocked down, benches crumpled up into small
metal balls, craters in the ground and much much more disaster. The cemetary that has
been next to the bike road for generations seems to be un-tempered with, except the
ground looks as if the devil rose from hell and burnt the area until everything was black.
Linkbob and the others walked down the bike road, at the end was church street which
connected to Columbia Drive if you cross over the bridge. South Queenstown High
School was on Columbia Street, that is where Linkbob and the rest need to go. There was
nobody to be found driving on the streets, all of the houses that Linkbob passed by
seemed to be abandoned...the town was deserted. They came up to the bridge that goes
to Columbia Drive. It's not one of those huge bridges like the Golden Gate bridge or
anything, it was small and paved for both drivers and walkers to cross by. There is a tiny
river flowing underneath. Every day that Linkbob walked home from school and went
over the bridge he notices how brown and grimy it is. It sickened him. On the bridge
there was a roadblock with four Arch Gaurds standing at them. They were holding huge
a** rifles. The rifles looked very futuristic, they probably didn't even fire bullets. When
Linkbob and the others got closer one of the gaurds walked forward holding up his hand
shouting, "Halt! I do not detect any Arches mark, by order of Lord Chombo I may open
fire!" Lord Chombo forcing open fire on people without marks? Linkbob was puzzled.
Perhaps he was forced to make that act. "We're not stopping here!" Linkbob yelled back.
"Very well" the Arches gaurd replied. The gaurds got into an aiming position. Linkbob
had already disappeared into sniping spot. Sky, Corus Maxus and Haitch De got in
fighting stances to. Right away the gaurds start shooting their huge a** rifles. The shots
are green, some sort of plasma. Haitch De quickly puts up a barrier in front of his friends,
defending them from the first wave of shots. Corus Maxus simply starts walking up to a
gaurd. The gaurd keeps shooting Corus but it cannot penatrate his armor even the
slightest bit. Corus slices the gaurd a little bit, not killing him, then spins around doing a
backwards stab making the arch gaurd drop dead. Haitch De uses his levatation powers
to pick up another enemy and fling him straight into a brick building nearby. Linkbob
always notices that building because there is a random sign that says Kirby on the side
of the structure. When he sees that sign he thinks of the Kirby video game. Speaking of
Linkbob, he drops out of nowhere behind an Arch gaurd who happens to be hiding
behind a road block. Linkbob grabs the gaurd by the neck and makes him a human
sheild. Linkbob walks out into the open, holding a pistol at the gaurds head. The one
other Arch gaurd left turns around to see his friend being held hostage, but at the same
time Corus Maxus makes a devastating power blow that knocks the Arch gaurd right off
the side of the bridge. Finally Linkbob pulls the trigger, assassinating the hostage he was
holding. Sky picks up all the road blocks and throws them off the side of the bridge.
"That river is already so dirty a couple of roadblocks wouldn't really do very much." Sky
jokes. Everybody laughs and moves on to Columbia Drive. So they finally made it to
South Queenstown High School. It's been greatly changed since the last time Linkbob
saw it. The outer appearance is no longer a brick building, it's made completely of some
sort of metal. The windows are barred and the entrance has a control panel. "Okay we'll
split into two groups, Haitch De and I will use out stealth skills to get in through the
front. Sky and Corus, you two find a place to break in that don't have so many gaurds."
Linkbob plans. Everyone agrees. Corus and Sky run behind the school. "We have to find
Chombo, get him out, and somehow find a way to stop the Arches once and for all!!!"
Linkbob explains. "Right let's get in there." Haitch De advises. "Even though you won't be
able to see me I'll be right behind you." Linkbob assures. Linkbob disappears. Haitch De
uses a spell known as re-shape, which makes him morph into an Arch-like person. The
gaurds can be fooled easily. Haitch De walks up to the Arch standing in front of the door.
The gaurd just stars at him. Worried that his identity might be revealed he flips up a
hand and chants "HOY". Linkbob has no idea what the ******** he's doing. The Arch just
sighs and let's him in, Linkbob follows undetected. Haitch De looks around. Both Linkbob
and Haitch De remember this place well. The halls are now filled with computers that
Arch gaurds are stationed at. The 1st floor main office windows were draped with silver
curtains. Haitch De walks to the door. The sign next to the door says "Head of South
Queenstown Arches." Linkbob suddenly realizes that if this is only the head of SOUTH
QUEENSTOWN arches, then there are more than one bases for the arches. Linkbob is very
worried now. Haitch De is oblivious though..."Maybe we should go in here!" whispers
Haitch De. "NO The head would surley realize you not an Arch!!!" Linkbob whispers back.
"Yes, but what if the head is Chombo?" Haitch De whispers curiously. Before Linkbob can
warn him more Haitch De walks right in. Linkbob has to follow. When they walk in a man
is sitting down at a desk in the middle of the room. His chair was flipped around so we
couldn't see his face. Haitch De looks at his name tag at the end of his desk. It states
Head Arch Mangello of SQ. "I've been expecting you Mr. Vice President. I knew you
couldn't stay in hiding for too long." Mangello flips his chair around, pointing one of
those huge a** rifles at Haitch De. "AAAHHH!" Haitch De yells. "Oh my goodness you
gave me a scare little boy!" Mangello says. "What do you need? A little help? dohnut?
pepsi? backrub? plunger? rubber ducky? domokun? cheese?" "No sir" Haitch De replies.
"Is Chombo in yet? I need to speak with him." "Chombo? He NEVER comes here! Says I'm
a useless pig, I'll show him though...you seem different than the other guys, you new?"
Mangello asks. "Uh...uhhhh YES! I new Arch from Taiwan!!! Yooza doosha!!!" Haitch De
quckly replies. "Oh ok I love that language! I didn't know we had guys over there. If you
want to speak with Chombo you can take a pod up to headquarters...but I can't go
there of course because Chombo banned me...." Mangello said. Linkbob was confused
that Chombo was using his power on Arches for bad. There was probably an advisor that
did all the work for him....Chombo probablly doesn't even have a say in it... "Thank you
sir." Haitch De oblidges. "Just remember you have to schedule upstairs, the file is under
operation B.I.N.D.E.R. it's easy to get to." Mangello reminds. "Thank you Head Mangello,
and in my country we say Eetsha Shitzz Head Mangello!" Haitch De replies trying not to
laugh. "Oh how nice, Eetha Chitz to you too!" Haitch De and Linkbob leave the office.
"Let's get upstairs, I saw a map of this place. We should be able to find the console with
operation B.I.N.D.E.R. in the (what used to be) Attendance Office." Linkbob tells him.
Haitch De raced upstairs and down the hall, passing dozens of Arch gaurds. "Slow down!"
Linkbob whispers urgantly to Haitch De. "You don't want to look out of the ordinary."
Haitch De slows down. When they reach the Attendance office Haitch De closes the door
and pulls down the curtain. Linkbob is able to come from the shadows now. But the one
thing they didn't realize is that there were two Arches in the room, these Arches were
different though. One Arch was big, and since the uniform didn't fir him he had to wear a
different shirt. The was really smelly and tall so he had to wear a longer shirt and pants
than the normal uniform. Linkbob realized that these two used to be apart of the staff of
South Queenstown High School. The big one was Mr. Leech, sort of an assistant principal,
and Superintendant Dicks, the superintendant. Haitch De quickly used his levatation to
shoot Arch Leech right through a wall, the alarm went off and two people raced into the
room. It was Sky and Corus. "Hey guys!" Haitch De said while using his levatation to pick
up Arch Dicks. "I've scheduled us to be sent to the main headquarters of the Arches
which happens to be orbiting around the earth right now...The bad part is we have to
travel all the way to Marungansset to get to the pod..." Linkbob explains. Arch Dicks is
flailing around trying to break free of Haitch De's power. Arches start swarming in the
room. Corus swings his sword around like crazy, Sky is punching and Linkbob is
shooting. Haitch De is still trying to levitate Arch gaurd Dicks. Suddenly the swarming
Arches stop. Head Mangello walks into the room. "YOU TRICKED ME YOU GABOOSE!!!!"
Mangello screamed. "What the hell is a Gaboose?" Sky asks with a smirk. Mangello simply
points at Skye and green bands around his wrists and ankles appear, the same bands
that appeared on Chombo a year ago at Bricklims. "We've been meaning to try to get
ahold of you Sky." Mangello says as the Arches take Sky away. "As for the rest of you,
You be doing math inside out until your HEADS EXPLODE!" (....yeah Linkbob didn't have
any clue what he meant by that either...) Mangello raises his hand up in the air. The Arch
gaurds in the room raise thier weapons. Mangello steps back and closes his hand. The
Arch gaurds begin to fire their huge a** rifles. Haitch De gets hit first, making him
uncontious. The plasma from the shot extends into a goo, consuming him inside. Arch
Gaurd Dicks breaks free and runs away from Haitch De's levetation. Linkbob takes out his
pistol, does a backflip to dodge an incoming shot. He shoots two or three Arches but
since there were so many Linkbob gets hit by their weapondry in the process too. Corus
is having a wonderful time slicing and dicing since his way through Arches. His armor
cannot get affected in any way by those rifles the arches are shooting. Linkbob is too
weak to get up, he closes his eyes. Linkbob hears the clashing of Corus' G-blade in the
background, but soon after that Linkbob hears a punch. "********" yells Corus. The
sounds are starting to become echos. There was another few punches and Linkbob
couldn't hear Corus at all. Linkbob just kept thinking "OMG is this it? Have I already
failed?" Linkbob then blacks out.
