Chapter 4 - The fall

As Alice and the others stepped through the gate, they were instantly teleported to a whole new world but, they were falling from the sky! "What the heck, what's going on, ahhhhhhh!" Alice shouted. "We're falling!" exclaimed David. "Don't worry I have a plan," said Carl. "Well be quick we don't have much time we're about to reach the ground!" shouted Miriam. "Ahhhhhhh!" exclaimed Ace. CJ held his hands together and an aura of green formed around him. The aura formed hands which reached out to grab the rest of the group, while another hand reached out to a side of a building, which in the end caused their fall to break, but CJ's aura hands were not strong enough to withstand the force, thus they burst, causing the other players to be thrown into different directions but at a survivable force. "Ahhhhhhh." Thump. Alice landed on the concrete sidewalk. "Seriously, even after that I still got hurt. Is everyone okay!" Alice shouted. "Damnnn I can't feel my legs," said Ace. "I'm okay, thanks for asking!" exclaimed Miriam. "Well at least we are all alive," said David.

David walked towards Ace and grabbed his legs, instantly healing him. "Thanks David, even though it's CJ's fault," said Ace. "Seriously? Why do you always have to be a finger pointer? It's not my fault the gate led us here," answered CJ. "Well if it hadn't been for me, you would all be on your last or second lives," said David. "Yes David we're grateful," said Miriam. "Ummm guys what is this place?" said Alice. The five of them looked at the city ruins, building pieces were floating around as if there was no gravity, the sky seemed to be pale yellow with a huge yellow light in between. A voice was heard, loud yet confirming, "Welcome players! Due to the high number of players who entered the gate, the system decided to fuse the levels of 2, 3, 4 spades together! Welcome to the Fall Arena! To complete this combined level, you must go to the 3 corners of the city, activate the beacons and a portal will be formed in the middle of the city for you to either go to the city realm or continue the game with 5 spades. Remember once you activate the beacons to open the portal, you must also defeat the fused 2, 3, 4 of spades general to proceed while surviving the many obstacles and spade knights. Good luck!" instructed the system."Okay, we might be in trouble" said Alice. "Well if this is the case then the best option is to split up" said David. "Split up? That's crazy, bad things happen when people split up" cautiously said Miriam. "But again a split up will make it more possible to finish this so called fall game" said Ace. "I agree, the best thing to do is to split up so that we can win this game much faster, so in that case Alice and I will go together, then David, Ace and Miriam will go together, that way we can handle all the 3 beacons then meet at the middle and work together to destroy the general and win this game" said CJ. "Mmm, so you teamed us together then teamed yourself with Alice? Maybe you're just trying to get the new girl to be your girlfriend" whispered David. "Why do you always have to do this, David? You think I didn't hear you?" responded CJ. "Alright fine fine, don't start nothing" said David. "Alright let's just split up and move on." Miriam held David and Ace by the necks and pulled them into the opposite direction towards the first beacon. "See ya later love birds" said Miriam. "Heyy I don't consent to this!" shouted David. "Alright Alice let's begin to the second beacon."Alice and CJ were now heading for the second beacon. As they were walking past the dry streets that looked worn out, as if a nuclear warfare had just happened, all of a sudden, a monster made of stone appeared from the ground. Alice didn't step back. She pulled out her sword from her chest and sliced the stone creature to pieces. CJ stood in shock, surprised and in awe of Alice's show of strength and speed. Swiftly, more stone creatures appeared, more menacing than the others. CJ activated his powers. His aura hands appeared and crushed the creatures. Finally, the battle was over.

Meanwhile, Miriam, David, and Ace were in the same situation. "It seems as if the game wants to make this more difficult for us," said Miriam. She activated her powers. Fire started flowing from her hands. She made a bright arrow of flame, firing it at the armed stone warriors and burning them to ashes. David, using his hidden power, reversed his healing ability, turning it into a harming power, and threw it against the stone warriors, destroying them. Ace had a more futuristic type of power the power of construction. Whatever he touched, he could bend into something new. He used the floor to crush the stone warriors before they could fully emerge from the ground.
