Time to murder the English language.
Leon sat upon the rolling plains of observance floor and looked out through the massive window to the planet below. He looked out over the ravaged land that he called home and a calm washed over him. While to many, the land below is a desolate hellscape fill with the creatures of nightmares. To him, it was a beautiful and wild expanse filled with new experiences and promise. The land below him was the color of rust and was topped with a whipping flame of burnt orange and red dust propelled by a constant wind. As he looked he thought he could make out some of the giant creatures that lived on the surface, even from his high altitude.
As he looked out over the world a large pillar became visible in the distance. The pillar stretched far past the ground, into the sky past the clouds, and what Leon could see with his restricted viewing ability. The pillar was a reflective black and stood out in stark contrast to the background it was cast upon. As he watched the pillar seemed to be moving in his direction, and his suspicion was confirmed when a countdown appeared on the viewing window.
Leon took a deep breath and closed his eyes as a gentle breeze blew across the plain. He focused himself and listened to the nature around him. He could hear the dry grasses around him quiver, the water from the stream below him flow over obstacles, and the various animals that moved across the land, water, and sky. As he listened he heard the crunch of grass behind him, and then heard more grass crunch as a large body laid down beside him. A large furry head nuzzled itself under Leon’s arm, and rested itself on Leon’s lap.
“Hello Ubel,” Leon said as he scratched the lion’s head “It seems that another challenger has arrived. I hope this tower is more interesting than the last one. Let’s get to work.” Leon patted Ubel’s head twice and the creature rose to its feet, followed shortly by Leon. The two of them then ran across the wild plains of the observance floor to the level’s elevator.
Leon entered the command room, and looked around to see he was the last one to arrive. The eleven others sat at a round table with various animals next to them. “Now that Lion is here we can begin,” a man with a gorilla next to him declared “We have a day before we come into contact with the other tower. This is an unknown tower to us, but they have sent message. They asked for a tower game, and they are betting five cores. As we never turn down a tower game, I have already sent our response. The fortieth through the sixtieth floors of both towers will be used as the battle stage, so Wolf, Shark, and Scorpion will need to prepare their floors. We will bridge at the fortieth floor. Those who don’t need to defend their floors, and are not asked to assist in doing so are on attack. Lion’s and my squad are on attack regardless, are there any questions?” Gorilla looked around and was only met by confident smiles. “Good,” He said with a confident grin of his own.
Leon stood on a platform outside of the one hundredth and tenth floor. Wind raced past his face as he checked himself with his triple pat check. “Sword, gun, board,” Leon said as he patted himself. Leon then turned to his squad who checked themselves. Leon looked over the edge and saw the bridges being connected below. “I hope you boys are ready, cause this is about to get wild,” Leon yelled to his men before putting in some headphones and cranking up music. “Hmm, rap,” Leon said to himself as he looked at his music device to see what he was listening to “Scholar’s tower you have outdone yourselves.” He then jumped off the side of the platform towards the battle starting below.
