inFAMOUS Displaced
Chapter 10
Wakfu Warfare

Geek and I had been walking through the Everfree forest for a few minutes. Things seemed calm, but I was far from it. I let Geek take point while I watched our backs. Since my Light element wasn’t active, I kept my telepathy open to scan for hostiles.

"This doesn't feel right," I said, coming to a stop and letting smoke flow through my hands.

Geek stopped and looked back at me with a worried look. "What doesn't feel right?"

I looked around, keeping an eye out for trouble. "We've been walking through who knows how much of the Everfree, and we haven't seen or heard from anything. It leads me to believe that we're being watched."

Geek suddenly started looking around more frantically than me. I kept a cool head and kept my eyes, ears, and mind open for anything out of the ordinary. I felt a mental twitch behind me, and I reacted, throwing a sulfur bomb in that direction. The bomb detonated and the area behind us was enveloped in thick smoke. Coughing was heard from within the smoke. A figure and a pony stumbled out of the smoke.

The figure was a skinny guy wearing a mismatched set of clothing. He had what looked like a Navy SEAL cap on, as well as a jacket that Santa Claus would be seen wearing. The guy also had a staff, and he looked like he knew how to use it. I had no doubt that he could hurt us if we weren't careful.

As for the pony, I recognized him as the Skullcap from earlier. He seemed to have attempted to clean himself off the body paint. His face had neuro-tar veins in his face, showing that he still had it in his system, but not as badly.

The man stood up after recovering from his coughing fit. "That was NOT cool, whoever you are," he said with rage in his voice. "Anyway, the Master wants me to eliminate you." He got into an aggressive stance. "So I guess I'll have to bid you adieu."

The guy jumped towards Geek and I. I pushed Geek away and smoke dashed backwards. The guy then gathered some golden energy and thrust his hands towards me. I then felt the worst headache I've had in a thousand years.

'Someone! Distract him! Break up the attack!'

Geek took the initiative and shot a fireball at Crazy Claus, disrupting the attack and changing his attention. Crazy Claus roared in rage and ran to clobber him. Before he could get close, a pony sized ball of rock suddenly flattened him into the ground. The rock stopped in front of me and broke apart. Inside the rock was the pony. He got out of the rock and saluted me.

*Obsidian Shard! At your command, Sir!* He garbled.

*Wait! Hold on!* I screeched. *What just happened?* I didn't get an answer, as Crazy Claus roared out again and went to Kung Fu Obsidian. I unraveled my chain and lashed out. Crazy dodged and jumped over us both. He then pulled what looked like Christmas presents out of his pocket and chucked them at us like grenades. Not taking chances, Obsidian and I jumped back and fired rock and smoke at the packages. We were far enough away from them to not get hit by any shrapnel.

"Guys! Be careful!" Geek shouted out behind us. "Those explosives had Wakfu mind control on them. Don't step in that area!" We nodded our heads and kept firing at Crazy. He got fed up by getting peppered by rock and cinder, so he charged up more energy and small white wings sprung out on his back. He then flew at me at a high speed and grabbed me by the throat, lifted me up and began to choke me.

As I was fighting to keep breathing, I managed to get my hands on his head and began to scan it for information on his master. I found that his master, the Paradox Child perhaps, had six others under his control. From whatever magical or mental connection they had, I found that one was fighting Nox and Damien, while another was searching for Carrow. I didn't get anything more than that, as Crazy roared in pain and fell, dropping me in the process.

I managed to land on my feet without injury. Crazy, on the other hand, landed face first in the dirt. When I saw his back, I saw a shard of obsidian embedded in his spine. He's probably paralyzed now. Despite that, took extra precautions and commanded some smoke to hold him down. Geek then approached the downed man and began to examine him.

"His Wakfu signature matches the signatures of the anomalies we were looking for." Before he could say anything more about the guy, I placed my hands on the guy's head and superheated it, cooking the guy's brains and killing him.

"What was that for?!" Geek asked.

"Cliche video game trait: defeat a sub-boss or a connection to the boss to weaken the boss," I stated. "Such a trait may apply to this guy's master."

"Strange way to put it," he muttered.

"What do we do now?" Obsidian asked in the common tongue.

"WE," I said, gesturing to Geek and I, "Are going to find Nox and Damien and help them."

"Wait! Why..."

"Nox has a brain too, Genius!" I deadpanned. "If this world is thrown off kilter, then it would be useless to him and whatever he's planning."

"Well...I..."

"As for you," I said, pointing at Obsidian. "You're going to find Carrow, keep her safe, and get her here to help us. We need all the help we can get." *Make Haste! Ponyville may be the best bet!*

*Sir! Yes Sir!* Obsidian then galloped away to Ponyville. Geek and I then continued further into the Everfree.

Obsidian Shard's POV

I ran to Ponyville as fast as my hooves could take me. I would sometimes use a rock boost to give me some forward momentum. I arrived in town and began my search for Carrow. From what my scrambled memories could tell me, this Carrow was the cat woman that restrained me when I wasn’t in control of myself.

"YOU B**** PREPARE TO DIE!" I heard from an isolated portion of town. I followed the voice and saw a bipedal cat facing off against a human girl all dressed up and fancy. "Dimensional Psychosis!" I heard the girl shout. The cat then looked as though as she was going to die as the girl summoned a magic circle around her.

While I had to search for Carrow, I couldn't let the cat get harmed or killed. What can I say? I'm kinda fond of cats. I used a rock jump to get above Fancy Hat. As I fell down, I summoned an obsidian blade in my hoof. I landed on the girl's back, knocking her down and canceling the spell she was doing. Before she could throw me off, I plunged the blade into her neck, severing several vital nerves and blood vessels. I proceeded to stab her in the back until she stopped twitching and struggling.

I looked at the cat, who had her eyes closed, anticipating death. "Hey, are you okay over there?" I said gently. The cat open her eyes to peek at me, but upon seeing me, her eyes shot open wide. I was confused as to why, until I looked over myself. I was covered in fresh blood. "Ugh! I just cleaned that off of me!" I ripped a portion of the girl's pant leg off and began to wipe the blood off. "Now I've got to start all over!"

After I cleaned most of the blood off of me, I addressed the cat. "I hope you're Carrow, because I was instructed to keep you safe." I trotted forward as a white unicorn with blue mane teleported to her.

"Here I am Carrow!" The unicorn said. "Do you need me to be your foal-sitter now?"

"That won't be entirely necessary. By the way, my name's Obsidian Shard." I offered my hoof to the cat and she shook it.

"My name is Carrow Coxen the Ecaflip." She then pointed to the unicorn. "And that's Vinyl."

"Nice to more officially meet you. Anyway, I think we should find Delsin. You would be safer near him." I then use a rock boost to shoot me towards the Everfree. I landed and looked back to Carrow and Vinyl, who both had shocked expressions. "We don't have all day! Hurry up!" They then ran and caught up with me just as I used another rock boost.

Dusk Spark's POV

I can't believe how stupid that Masqueraider is. I saw him talking with someone under mind control who made himself to like he was Displaced. At least the weirdo with the axes didn't do anything aggressive. As Axe Man walked away, I saw Mask Face create a sentry or whatever in Tartarus he made with a short statue and a mask. That then started following Axe Man deeper into the Everfree. Considering that that guy needed a few eyes on him, Kudos to Mask Face.

I noticed that Zecora was there with Mask Face. I static teleported close to eavesdrop on the conversation.

"That'll do it thank you," Zecora said, "But for now, stay ready to bid adieu."

"What's that mean?" Mask Face asked.

"Once you hear it there will be death, one way or another, so go forth......when your ready to do so." That sounded weird. Apparently, not every Zecora rhymes in every sentence. My electromagi-scan can tell that she is safe. I had already done so to Axe Man, showing that he's hostile and has traces of mind control.

Since I went through the trouble of going through Tartarus and back to try and keep what Hellish future I've lived in from happening, I guess helping Delsin help these guys out would be worth it. I static teleported to a hidden position and began to tail Axe Man and Mini Mask.

Before I could follow him far, I felt something I haven't felt for several years. S***! He’s here! I left Axe Man to find Delsin. Just don’t die at his hands, Delsin.
