Motobuggers Gauntlet: Dark Legacy

Chapter 1: Called to the Cause

In an ancient time, the evil mage Garm, using the power of the Runestones, unleashed a great evil upon the land. This demon, Skorne, broke free of Garm’s control, crushing him and imprisoning his soul in the Underworld.  Skorne then released his minions upon the lands, and scattered the Runestones across the 8 Realms, so that they might never again be assembled and used against him. No one has dared try, until now…

In the big city of Chicago, Illinois, the young bully hunter, Alice Winterborn, was relaxing in her house, playing with her guitar. When all of a sudden, the phone rang from downstairs. “I’ll get it!” Alice shouted, when she got up she didn’t realize her body began glowing, she then ran downstairs, and suddenly disappeared!

Meanwhile, in her apartment, Catelyn Limewell, the band’s bassist, was taking one of her usual naps. She gave a yawn and rubbed her eyes, “What time is it?” she asked herself. She then went downstairs to grab a soda; she then sat down and began to watch TV. Just then, her body began to glow, and she instantly disappeared!

Sasha Brevanic, the Russian drummer, was sitting on the stoop of her house; she let out a sigh and looked to the skies. “I wonder if there might be rain today.” She wondered to herself, she had no time to worry about the weather, though, because her body began to glow, and she disappeared!

Bianca Moore, the lead singer, was busy in her garage. She was an avid mechanic and she was working on her car, she reached for her wrench and tightened the last bolt. “That should do it!” She said. All of a sudden, her body began to glow and then she disappeared.

The Motobuggers then appeared in a strange tower, there were different areas in the tower. “Fancy seein’ you here!” Catelyn said. “Well, we were all called here, but for what reason?” Sasha said.

Just then, a wizard wearing a yellow robe appeared before them. “Welcome, brave heroes! I am called Sumner; I have called you here for a great task.” The wizard said. Alice looked at him, “Well, I am called Alice Winterborn and these are my friends, Catelyn, Sasha, and Bianca, and what task do you speak of?” Sumner looked at them, “The evil mage, Garm, has broken into my tower and used the Runestones to summon the evil demon, Skorne. Skorne broke free of Garm’s control and destroyed him. Skorne has unleashed his minions across the land and scattered the Runestones across the 8 Realms.”

Bianca said, “Well, where’s this ‘Skorne’ now?” Sumner explained, “He has sealed himself in the Desecrated Temple, which is protected by eight shards. Each of the shards is in possession of Skorne’s mighty guardians.” Catelyn said, “Well, what are we supposed to do about it?” Sumner said, “Simple, you must travel to the 8 Realms, fight your way through Skorne’s minions and destroy the guardians. Only then, when recover all 8 shards, you can go to the Desecrated Temple and banish Skorne to the Underworld.”

Alice said, “Well, what are we waiting for?” Sumner stopped her in her tracks. “Not so fast, eager one. First, you 4 need to become a legendary hero.” Sumner created 8 glowing areas, each one with a different kind of weapon. “Step into the light of which hero suits you, there are 8 paths; Warrior, Dwarf, Archer, Jester, Wizard, Sorceress, Valkyrie, and Knight. Choose wisely.” Alice looked and thought to herself, “One choice, huh? Well, I’ve always wanted to be a knight.” She took the mace and shield; just then her body began to glow! After that, she appeared to be wearing armor. “Wow! This is cool!” Now, it was Catelyn’s turn. “Hmm… well, I’ll go with the crossbow.” Catelyn began to glow, and she then appeared to be wearing a green tunic, wearing a green bandana and her ears had become elongated. “What? I didn’t know that becoming an archer meant becoming an elf! Still, it’s pretty cool.” Sasha stood up and took the path of the Valkyrie, her body began to glow and she was now wearing a blue outfit, and wearing a golden winged circlet. “Nice! This will cut down those minions.” Bianca took the small staff, which was the weapon of the Sorceress. She began to glow and she was now wearing yellow high-heeled boots and a revealing outfit.

“Excellent, now, Skorne has sealed the entrance to each Realm with a magical shield. Scattered throughout the lands are crystals that will enable you to remove the shields.” Sumner explained. Alice, now taken aback with her new look, said, “Do the crystals look like the ones over there?” She pointed her mace at the floating orange crystals. “Yes, I have summoned enough crystals to unlock one of the eight Realms, the Forsaken Province. Go now, the fate of the Realms is in your hands!” Sumner said.

Alice ran over and collected the crystals, the shield surrounding the gates of what appeared to be cemetery gates disappeared and the 4 heroes stepped into the gate. They found what appeared to be 5 portals, but only one was active. The girls stepped onto the first portal and disappeared.
Well, my OCs are being warped into the world of Gauntlet: Dark Legacy!
