Rua could only shake his head. "Whatever, Kalmar," he said lightly. That's Kalmar for you, I guess.
A short, balding, portly man in a suit came jostling up to the two of them, looking frantic. With an arched eyebrow, Rua listened carefully to what the man had to say.
"Four unidentified objects?" he asked when the mayor was done, perplexed. That's unusual.
"Yes," he heard the man say, his voice rising a bit, "And they say they're headed straight here for Newdam!"

"Four objects, eh?" Kalmar became oddly silent, his eyes focused on the sky above.
Could it be.. they've come? Thoughts and memories rushed through his head.
It's been a long time.

Rua frowned, noticing the strange look on his former rival's face.
"Kalmar?" he asked, touching the demon hunter's shoulder slightly. "Do you know what's going on?"

Kalmar was brought back to reality as Rua touched his shoulder. He looked over at his past rival with a strange glint in his eyes.
"Yes, I believe I may know what's happening. You see, back before me and Rua were.."
An explosion rocked the building, shaking the survivors moments before a voice called out over a make-shift PA system.
"All survivors of Newdam. Take shelter, we are under attack again!."
The screams and sounds of feet hitting pavement of hundreds of frantic people suddenly came to life.

Rua swore as he stood up, looking at where the beam had struck the building and caused the explosion. Even as he moved, a second beam struck, and he growled. "Let's go!" he shouted, summoning the Dragon King Armor. He slammed his fist hard into the ground, launching him upwards and over the wall.

Kalmar dashed forward, using his demonic shortswords to dice a Dark Soldier into pieces. Afterwards he turned, the two swords dissipating in a fine black mist as he charged corrupted energy into his arms and began firing a massive volley of energy orbs.
"Rua!" A fine black mist covered his right hand and forearm as he gathered energy into it, dark tendrils beginning to creep down his forearm.
He yelled as he released the Darkburst, the black orb traveling a short distance before exploding. A small unstable gravity vortex was spawned as the fabric of space seemed to rip, drawing nearby enemies into it. Their cries of pain and anger were silenced as they disappeared into the black hole.

As the Darkburst dissipated, Rua dropped down through the air, landing neatly in the space left behind. The Phase Lance spun rapidly overhead before Rua attacked, cleaving a group of the strange warriors around him. He backpedaled quickly, coming to stop near Kalmar. His left arm cannon activated and he quickly fired a large ray of energy down the length of the horde, killing a good number of them.
"Dammit, there's a lot this time!" he growled as the shot ended, and he began to ready another volley.

"Enough of this!" Kalmar yelled as he activated the Devilhand, bashing any creature that came close.
"The only way to end a battle quickly is to defeat the one who commands them."
A Dark Soldier rushed forward, it's black longsword held high overhead as it roared at him. Kalmar caught the weapon as it descended, snapping the blade in half before reaching forward and crushing the creature's head.

Rua grunted, slashing two Dark Soldiers into ribbons with quick movements of the Phase Lance. A third one was impaled on its length, and lifting it up, Rua flung the body into another rank of soldiers.
"But if we can't get to the leader..."

Kalmar looked into the distance and smirked. He leapt above the crowd, landing on a balcony of a nearby building.
"Rua!" He pointed into the distance at a lone figure, standing back from the teeming horde of enemies that assaulted Newdam.
"Look over there!"
As he pointed he looked down to Rua, to make sure that the boy saw where he was motioning to.

The figure standing there was DreamSword, in what appeared to be a new outfit. He had a strange crest in the middle of his chestplate, which was now medium grey, as well as his knee-caps, fully armored left arm, and his headband. His boots and sash were now black, and his pants, dark grey. "Almost pitiful, isn't it?", DreamSword said quietly talking to himself. "But I suppose it would be best if we played the part we've been given." With that, DreamSword drew the now darkened Master Sword in his left hand, and watched as the dark soliders attacked the city.

Rua followed Kalmar's orders, hopping up onto a field of debris to get a better look. After using the Dragon King Armor's arm cannons to eliminate a duo of Dark Soldiers, the green-eyed warrior stared out across the field of monsters at their leader.
His eyes widened in surprise behind the visor as he took in the darker appearance of DreamSword, complete with a red and black crest and a corrupted sword. "Damn," he swore under his breath.

Kalmar nodded and jumped back down into the fray, firing a powerful beam of corrupted fire energy at the soldiers below. He dragged the beam through the crowd, vaporizing everything it touched.
"Go get 'em, Rua. I'll hold off these weaklings." With that he continued to slaughter the Dark Soldiers, using his demonic scythe and corrupted energy to keep them at bay.

Rua nodded and slammed his fist into the air, propelling himself over the crowd of monsters. They aimed up with their weapons, firing a multitude of beams and bullets, none of which met their mark. The ground shattered as Rua's armored feet made contact with them on the other side of the battlefield, both Phase Blades in hand.
Rua slammed the two swords together at the hilt in front of them and swung the Phase Lance back, then upwards while spinning it overhead. The weapon slashed down in one smooth motion, and Rua's eyes flashed gold in a challenge to the corrupted DreamSword.

"Well if it isn't old Dragonheart...", DreamSword said after Rua made his little intro sequence. "I hope you aren't thinking of challenging me with that 'small' blade of yours, for it'd be a bad deal on your part." DreamSword then held the darkened Master Sword with both hands, as if to say he was ready. Heh, I feel almost like a General., he thought to himself.
