Prologue
A long streak of green clambered with a tinge of red flashed on the top-left corner of Shiny’s vision. As he gritted his teeth, he angled to his right, barely dodging the blade that darted for his left arm.
Thrusting, he lunged towards his adversary. His adversary, Perp, parried it with a resounding clash that rang out through the practice field.
Perp, extending his arm, shoved against Shiny, who was caught unguarded by the shove. Falling back, he lost his footing. As he drew his arm from his side to parry the oncoming blow, time seemed to slow down for the two master swordsmen.
In that defined moment, Perp suddenly jerked his sword right, and swung it just below Shiny's deflecting blade, and swept it across Shiny's torso.
“Perp wins!” Lord yelled. Perp, grinning, offered his hand to Shiny, who was lying on the ground, glancing at his HP bar, with a green, healthy portion of his HP replaced with a stalk of crimson-red streak.
As the both of them took off their training armour, their HP gauges decreased, but differently from Shiny's situation. The width of their gauges was reduced sizably and the red streaks disappeared from both of their gauges.
In the distant future of Robloxia, Robloxians were imbued with a special kind of technology, the Health Point System.
Their Health Points, HP, represented their life force. Should the HP of one Robloxian reaches zero, he/she would perish immediately, with their body parts scattering into numerous tiny crystals.
Wearing armour would drastically raise the maximum amount of Health Points one would see in his own HP bar, and the amount raised varies depending on the quality of the armour.
Robloxians were not the only ones who had the Health Point System ‘installed’, vehicles, machines and all sorts of technology were imbued with this too. Should the HP of a machine get reduced to zero, it would explode, with the intensity of the explosion varying on the machine’s size.

There was a rapid series of knocks on Lord’s office door. “Come in,” Lord, the leader of Shadow Syndicate, said.
With that, Shadow barged in, breathless and eager to make his report. “Sir,” Shadow reported, panting, “A fleet of enemy warships have been spotted, heading towards us, Outpost Auzzie!” |

Thanks, I'll continue this slowly, but there'll be a lot of chapters. Different from The Final Battle, where it's done very quickly with only an arc.
This series will have a lot of arcs, but would be done slowly ^^ Stay tuned! =P |

Multiple lasers darted towards the Fort, landing clean hits on the sturdy rock cliffs that guard Fort Auzric. As chips of stone and debris crumbled continuously, a pack of Shadow Syndicate's finest swordsmen dashed towards the sea, while dodging the oncoming lasers.
"How's Auzric's team doing?" Lord asked Gon, who was busying himself with the communication systems.
"They're fine, all of their HP gauges are above 75%," Gon observed as he continued to mash at the control buttons.
'Hmm? What's this...soldiers and a dust cloud?' Auzric pondered as he observed the incoming raiders bursting in their direction.
In a moment, the two groups clashed with each other. Sparkles of laser rang out in the battlefield.
Auzric illuminated his lightsaber and dashed forward with his head ducked. He cut down the reckless enemy soldier that was wildly charging up to him, while at the same time dodging his ferocious laser spear.
Angling for what he thought was the Commander of the assault troupe, Govand angled towards him, swinging his sword skillfully, while elegantly dodging all the incoming thrusts from the enemies surrounding him.
The presumed Commander parried Gov's attack, and they continued to take turns to lunge at each other intensely.
"Launch the hovercrafts and shoot down their turrets!" Lord ordered as he started to worry about the enemy laser turrets that were relentlessly firing at the rigid stone walls.
On board a hovercraft, Shadow took aim and fired a laser at an enemy laser turret that was savagely firing a barrage of lasers at him.
With a destructive sound emitted as the impact occurred, the HP gauge of the turret was depleted completely, followed by a massive explosion.
Govand’s reflexes alerted him immediately to the explosion, but he was still caught surprised by it. Missing his footing, he saw his rival’s blade targeting his torso.
Govand immediately withdrew his lightsaber from his stance and initially intended to parry the enemy commander’s lunge.
Out of the corner of his eyes, however, an enemy marksman held up his laser rifle intensely, and focused on Govand’s head.
Pulling the trigger, a threatening flash of laser emitted from the rifle, flying to Govand’s head. Shiny, seeing this, gasped, and instinctively raced to deflect the bullet. However, Govand was more attentive than Shiny thought. With a glance, he instantly lifted his lightsaber, confident that he would reflect the laser bullet back at the audacious enemy marksman.
PING! A raucous cry rang out from the collision of the lightsaber and the laser bullet. The laser bullet, propelled by the impact, zipped towards its origin with renewed speed. The enemy marksman was shot in the head by his own bullet, and fell to the ground with a thud.
His HP gauge emptied almost instantly, and his body scattered into shiny, polygon crystals a second later.
However, unaware to his own combat, Govand’s adversary took that opportunity, swerved towards his side, and thrusted his vicious, rusty blade towards Govand.
BOOM! Shadow gasped as his thoughts raced through his mind madly. The hovercraft right beside him, with the soon-to-be High Rank Play riding it, had been blown up by the ravenous shot from a laser turret. Play collapsed to the ground, his HP bar filled with almost nothing left, but a mere, tiny speck of green.
Shadow launched into an array of rampage, firing lasers after lasers at every turret he saw. Soon enough, the firing on the walls of Outpost Auzzie ceased, and Shadow and the rest of the hovercraft riders flew to Play’s side, carried him and escorted him back to the fort.
Auzric mercilessly cut off another enemy’s head with his lightsaber, then ducked to avoid a shotgun’s numerous bullets. Propelling himself, he leaped out towards at that gunman, slicing up his shotgun. A minor explosion followed after that, and taking the chance, Auzric stabbed his lightsaber deep into the stunned enemy’s torso, draining his HP to zero until crystals sprang out.
Auzric then turned, and saw the most horrifying scene he could have imagined.
As twilight rose, Govand’s HP gauge rapidly drained. Stuck in his torso, was a sharp, thorny blade, its edge encrusted with a devilish scent. |

I hope I'm not the doctor, the way I would like to feature is parachute into the battlefield with a fully loaded machine gun... And then I would have a little chat with the enemy but I wouldn't talk I would let the machinegun do the talking :D |
