| - Previous: Graveyard of a Madman Part 12 Soldier: Admiral! I just got through to St. Marcus Hospital! They're patching me through to Commander Gregory! Rise: What?!?! How did you do that? [Walked over to him very quickly.] Soldier: I have a friend at the Naval Base in Sukiyaki. [Handed her the receiver.] DenDen: H-...Hello? Rise: Commander Gregory, this is Vice Admiral Rise from the Battleship 357th, I know that you're in bad condition, so I will make this quick. I need confirmation that Captain Rinji of the Tiger-Stripe Pirates was, in fact on Hotdog Island. What was the color and pattern of his fur? Gregory: I didn't get... a good look at him... Gregory: Not until... he turned... purple and... white. Rise: [Eyes brightened.] White and purple?! You're certain?! Gregory: I've never seen anything like it... He grew so.. large. His attack crippled me. Rise: Thank you, Commander Gregory, that is all I need. You get some sleep and remember to drink plenty of fluids. Gregory: My pleasure, Admiral Rise. Rise: Thank you gentlemen, I will now take my leave! Return to your normal schedule. [She walked out of the room and hurried with her assistant following close behind.] Get everyone off from leave! I want this ship up and running tomorrow! I don't care how much we go over our schedule, we are to make for Hotdog Island, I want to be there as soon as humanly possible! Assistant: Y-yes ma'am, I'll tell the Commander. Rise: I swear to you, Sergeant Russel, there is no way he is getting away from me this time. This time I'm not going to hold back anyth-- Guard: All personnel to you battle stations! Stations everyone!!! Dragon: Kooohohohohoho! Admiral Rise, I am honored to finally make your acquaintance. Kola: Good day, my lady Admiral. I have come in order to commandeer a vessel in order to make it to Hotdog Island. Rise: I'm sorry, was that supposed to be funny? I will see you hang for this, Kola! Kola: Of all people, I thought you might appreciate what I am trying to do. I just want the Catman's head on a pike, and the same with his crew, and anyone who ever loved or helped him. Just give me a ship, and I'll go away quietly. Rise: Taru Taru no Mentsu!!! [Her hand shot forward in the form of tar, and grabbed onto his face, pushing him straight back into a light post where his head was smashed into it and continuously layered with tar!] I'll see you roast for this Kola!!! [She shrieked, her eyes burning with hatred and her jaw sneering with dread.] Rise: Why did you kill all of those Marines on that ship. They were merely trying to help you! They were taking you home! Kola: I didn't want to go home! I wanted nothing but death! I wanted BLOOD! [He changed his hand into a dragon's claw, one that burned hot with mythical fire, and came at her with it.] Primordial RAZOR FIEND!!! [His claw ripped into her side, and though her tar was easily removable, the heat was far different than that of normal fire, and she felt the white heat in a terrible way.] Rise: GAH!!! Taru Taru no Ouchi! [She piled up tar at his feet, and then kicked his midsection, sending him sliding straight back, and slipping.] Kola: Kohohohohoho! It's about time they came! Looks like my friends finally caught-- [A hardened tar spear collided with his chest.] Kola: Koooohohohohohoho!!! Very good, Rise. Seems you've earned your stripes. [Pulled the tar spear from his torso and ripped his shirt open to reveal scales, the hardest scales you could imagine.] Now prepare to lose them! Kola: How disappointing, I wasn't finished yet. Kola: Koooohohohoho!!! You are so worthy, it is a damn shame that you would never join me. [He began to walk, carrying her by her neck as she choked.] I want you to know that I will take care of the Catman, and he will feel so much more pain than you have now. I will skin his beautiful, tiger-striped fur from his flesh and wear it as the most glorious cape! Kohohohoho! It will be magnificent!!! Rise: Errrr! [Choking voice] You... not even your wife could ever love a sick, perverted creature like you! I hope she sees you like you are now, I hope she sees the monster you've become! Kola: I hope so too.
