The Curse of Apocalypse

fight4thedream

my alliance has been cursed.

Yesterday, i awoke to find an invitiation by the 1st mutant, the tower of power, the one and only Apocalypse to join his alliance Immortal Rage on the in-game chat thingy. Believe you me i was surprised and a moment of pure geek euphoria was had.

In that moment, the imagination machine went into overdrive and created a scenario in the danger room (his brain) that went something like this:

*Alarm*
Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!

F4D wakes up from his nice comfy futon and checks the alarm system.

"That's funny, the security system can't find an intruder even though the alarm has gone off"

With Stealth Groove Assassin Girl out doing maneuvers with Team Panda and the unreliability of Samuraiduck-man's squad to hold fort, F4D decides to secure the perimeter of his alliances super secret base.

"Gosh i wish this base weren't so big and messy" he mumbles to himself as he goes from room to room to room checking to make sure nothing fishy was going on.

Entering the kitchen he finds Samuraiduck-man and his squad knocked out with pizza boxes scattered about the floor.

"You ungrateful hoodlums! How are you going to throw a pizza party and not invite me!!" he yells as he runs toward his fallen comrades.

"Wake up! We have a possible intruder!"

Just as he raises his hand to smack the beejeezuses out of Samuraiduck-man to wake him from his sleep, a figure steps forth from the shadows.

"Striking him will be of no use, fight4thedream." The shadowy figure turns out to be a young pizza delivery boy.

"Who are you? How did you find my super secret base? What happened to m......oh, sweet Moses don't tell me these guys forgot to pay you?"

"You are not a very sharp one, are you, fight4thedream?" The pizza boy looks a bit disgruntled as he transforms into a giant cyborg man.

"Woah! You can turn into a robot! That's so cool! Do you want to join my allia.."

"SILENCE! I did not come here to listen to your endless chatter! I came here to offer you an opportunity of a lifetime!"

"Sheesh you are awfully grumpy for a pizza delivery boy, keep that attitude up and you won't be getting a tip and i was going to give you a bi"

"I am not a pizza delivery boy you fool! I am Apocalypse!!"

And from the shadows emerges a few of the Immortal one's minions.

"Are you sure he's the one we want, lord Apocalypse?" one of the minions carelessly asks.

"Tomak, hush! Lord Apocalypse please forgive his insolence." Another of the minions quickly scolds his companion but it is too late as the foolish questioner bursts into ash from the inside out.

"I do not have time for those that would question my authority. Fight4thedream, i have been watching you for sometime now. Get what you deserve for your hard work! Join Immortal Rage now and I shall bestow upon you the power of Death!"

"Really?! That sounds so cool! i guess i would have to change my name to Fight2theDeath or something! Yeah, i like the sound of that: Fight2theDeath hehe"

"So it's settled. You shall serve as my right hand and lead the four hoursemen...."

"Ummmm...sorry but as cool as all that sounds i can't leave my friends behind."

"What!? You would turn down eternal power and glory for friendship?!"

"i guess so...who would have thought, huh? We many not be a Top 100 team yet but we are almost there! We scored 195 last pVp which is an all time high for my team!"

"....I will listen no further to this foolishness! Mark my words, fight4thedream, your Alliance shall never know the joys and pleasures of T100. The friends you carry with you know will one day grow bored and abandon you. You will be left with nothing to show for your efforts."

"If that's the way it's gotta be then that's the way it's gotta be"

"You will regret this day, fight4thedream. I look forward to when you come crawling to me begging me for the power you could have so easily taken now! For your insolence, I shall put a curse upon your precious alliance! Perish with the ants you seem so keen to protect! Minions let's go! I was mistaken to try to do business with a fool"

"Hey do you have any more pizza?"

*Back to reality*

Actually I was more surprised and flattered than anything by the gesture but as things currently stand i won't be abandoning my alliance anytime soon. But if any of the Immortal Rage crew reads this, please give my thanks and regards to your fearsome leader!

oh...and about the curse!

So as i was riding on the train back home that day, and doing my daily prune of the alliance i happened upon a n00b who managed to sneak in. Just as i was about kick the n00b the train swayed and my finger slipped and somehow i managed to make him a commander! (0.0!)

and now i can't kick him! i already have my token Spidey Boy n00b on the team (who i keep around because i like his choice of screen name and he actually puts points up in both pVp and pVe, not a lot mind you) i don't need another one! What's worse is Commander n00b does not play pVp at all! Arrgh!!!

i emailed CS and i am hoping they don't enforce that rumored two weeks of inactivity thing considering the dude/dudette wasn't even on my alliance for more than half a day before this incident!

Moral of the story: If Apocalypse comes calling for you, you better take it. It'll save you a lot of stress!

All the best to Immortal Rage!

And just in case, Commander n00b if you are out there reading this, please, please, pretty please leave my alliance!! i will give you all the TUs you want!! Just go away!!

Tldr: The OP is a geek with an over-active imagination. That is all. Have a nice day!

P.S.~If you want to join Top100 alliance and got the skillz, Immortal Rage currently has one spot open! If you want to join a 300-200 alliance, i will hopefully have a spot open within the next few days once this blasted curse of the Commander n00b goes away! Cheers!!

A message arrived from my desciples regarding my voyage thru space and time of how I breached your impenetrable alliance. Of how I tried to recruit you from your most loyal friends and why a cursed was bestowed upon you. Tis' not a dream nor t'was a threat but a friendly offering, not meant to set upon u curse. I respond to you: times will be tougher, strength will measure patience, loyalty will be tested, but Immortals we will rage. When you are ready, when the skies are too dark, the war to much to bare, APOCALYPSE is one call away. You can come alone, you can take your best friend, you can take your most loyal peers. So, I end with a thank you for the recognition of an empire built by the almighty Immortal7, and lift the curse set upon you by my aurora of immortality. My minion, the fellowship of d3, will have received your call for mercy to remove N00B. Wishing u and ur alliance a great success.
