Here's a brand new story starring two of my favourite boy bands McFly and Busted as their super group McBusted and my original character Dominic who were sent into New Wirral from the monster catching RPG game Cassette Beasts. I've played Cassette Beasts last year and it's a good Pokémon clone with its own identity so I thought I'll come up with a short story with again The McBusted boys and Dominic venturing in the world of Cassette Beasts, using monsters that I've nicknamed them after in the game (with the exception of Dominic).
Here's Chapter 3 with Charlie and Tom entering Brightside Pier where Rogue Fusion activity is reported, only for those two to clash in with each other with their rivalry (just like for Busted Vs McFly). Enjoy and stayed tuned for more.
Chapter 3 - Lighting Rivarly
Tom and Charlie have arrived at a pier that is further away from New Wirral, known as Brightside Pier. “I would never expect this world to have a pier. Bet my kids would enjoy it,” said Tom as he was looking around Brightside Pier with interest as if he were a kid entering an unfamiliar pier. “I don’t know. It looks rather small and run down,” said Charlie doubtfully.
There was no time to be sightseeing as there was a rogue fusion activity with lots of monsters attacking Brightside Pier’s attractions, including some small cat-like creatures wearing a red cloak and bow known as Littlered and a ghostly book-like creature that floats called a Hauntome. “It looks like we have to fight Little Red Riding Hood!” said Tom jokingly yet prepared for battle as he transformed into Arkidd. “We better not underestimate them just because of the way they look”, said Charlie cautiously, transforming into Zeustrike.
The Arkidd was fast and has strong close-range moves, allowing Tom to hit fast and hard, including with a lightning-fast electrical attack that hits the target twice using Battery, rushing towards the opponent with an icy charge using Snow Rush and slamming a plastic hammer using Toy Hammer. “This robot has so many neat tools!” said Tom with fascination as he fights the Littlereds up close.
Despite their size, the Littlereds had a mind of their own, who can summon backup, which includes more of their kind using Call for help, power themselves up when they’re at low health using Berserker and restore their health while using biting moves with their Carnivore ability. All of this makes them trickier to handle, especially with their increasing numbers.
“They sure have big teeth to bite!” cried Tom with frustration. Charlie came by to help, using his Zeustrike’s Hurricane to blow them away. “You can’t underestimate them and rush in. You gotta wait until the perfect opportunity to strike,” advised Charlie. “But wouldn’t that allow them to overwhelm you quickly?” questioned Tom. “I’m saying that if you rush in without a proper plan, then you’ll be caught off guard without being prepared for anything”, answered Charlie. “Well, my Arkidd happened to be fast, so it’s natural that I act fast. Isn’t your Zeustrike supposed to be lightning fast too?” argued Tom. “Yes, but that’s beside the point! It helps to use our own talent and strategy, too,” said Charlie. Tom couldn’t help but find Charlie patronising. Maybe he thinks that he’s more talented than him, which is why he was kicked out from Busted.
Zeustrike also had lightning-fast movements with a variety of range attacks, including Lightning Bolt, Blizzard and Energy Wave, which Charlie uses to shoot down The Hauntomes at a far distance, including from behind, before they could spot him (which hits them twice as hard with them becoming conductive). “I can read them like a book!” bragged Charlie. The Hauntomes were also tricky to fight, as they reduced damage using their Hardback ability and could transform into a ghost using Haunt, which made them invisible. This allowed The Hauntomes to fire powerful ranged attacks using Magic Tome and Zephyr, which intercepted Zeustrike’s attacks.
Tom came by, charging into the Hauntomes using Arkidd’s close-range attacks (although he wasn’t able to hit the invisible ones). “See? You gotta make use of your monster’s speed and take them out quickly!” said Tom. “Careful, Tom, there’s one behind you!” called Charlie as a Hauntome was about to attack Tom, though he took it out using Arkidd’s Toy Hammer. “No worries, I just have to strike first before they attack me. You better get in there and act first if you want to win,” said Tom. Charlie couldn’t help but be envious of Tom, who seems to have the energy and passion than him. Maybe that’s why McFly have remained as a band whereas Busted had split. The Hauntomes that became ghosts were knocked out with their Haunt effects worn off.
The monsters they fought were coming from an attraction that resembled a haunted mansion, which is known as The Witch House, so Tom and Charlie figured that this must be their hiding place. “Let’s see who can take out the most first, though I bet you’ll get haunted”, said Tom, mocking Charlie. “Oh yeah, bet I’ll be the first to have the most win streaks while you’ll chicken out”, said Charlie, mocking him back as they both got competitive with each other.
As soon as they entered The Witch House, Tom spotted several Hauntomes, including those that were fused together. “I sure hate to take down some books, but still, I gotta get this over with before Charlie beats me to it”, said Tom, who quickly charges in as Arkidd using Battery, taking advantage of the fact that The Hauntomes were weak against Lightning-type attacks. Having to become fused, however, the larger Hauntome slowed down Tom with a strong gust of wind using Hurricane. This allowed the other Hauntomes to attack Tom by firing their Multi Shots, but Tom stubbornly braced against the wind, being more concerned with taking them down first before Charlie beats him to it, showing that he is the more talented one. Tom persistently swings the Arkidd’s Toy Hammer and fires Icicle Darts even if he misses.
Charlie would have helped Tom, but he was more concerned with being the first to take down the highest number of monsters and showing that he had more talent than Tom. Even if Charlie, as Zeustrike stays at a far distance, the fused Littlereds were able to get closer to Charlie and hammer him with their stronger melee attacks, including Smack, which was more like a huge whack. But Charlie stubbornly refused to back down and fired the Zeustrike’s Lightning Bolt and Blizzard at the Littlereds, although some of Littlered were able to dodge the attacks.
“Why don’t you try aiming your attacks properly?” asked Tom mockingly, who noticed Charlie missing his attacks. “Oh yeah? I suggest you should keep your eyes on your opponents” answered Charlie slyly They continued to get in each other’s throats even if they took out many monsters (but not by working together) with Tom bragging “See? I can take out twice as many monsters with my Arkidd’s radical style!” just after he charged his Arkidd towards some Littlereds and Hauntomes with a metallic melee based attack using Chopper Chop. “That’s nothing compared to my Zeustrike, who is as fast as lightning!” boasted Charlie, firing his Zeustrike’s Lightning Bolt towards a row of Littlereds and Hauntomes.
They were both so busy getting caught up with their rivalry that they didn’t notice that they fell into a large hole just after that took out the Littlereds that lured them there. It leads them to a wide open room where two of Littlered’s remix forms were found. One resembled a hooded humanoid flower known as a Rosehood, and the other had the appearance of a large cloaked wolf called a Scarletooth. Both monsters fused together as Roseteeth. It was the rogue fusion that was reported in this area. “Well, let’s see who can beat this rogue fusion first!” said Tom. “I’ll be delighted to take that challenge”, said Charlie.
Use this for the fight against the rogue fusion
The Roseteeth’s fighting style is a combined mixture of Rosehood’s elegance and Scarletooth’s beastly instincts as it dodges Tom and Charlie’s attacks by leaping like a ballerina dancing with grace and sucker punching them up close with a savage beat down attack which attacks them both at the same time using Bish Bash Bosh. “That was a sloppy performance, Charlie!” said Tom. “You’re not the one to talk!” answered Charlie as they quickly got up with Tom’s Arkidd charged towards Roseteeth using Battery, and Charlie’s Zeustrike fired its Lightning Bolt, only for Tom to get hurt by the splinters upon making contact with the Roseteeth using its Splinter technique and for the Roseteeth to dodge Charlie’s attack. The Roseteeth then strikes them both using Woodcutter.
Despite getting hurt from the consecutive hits, Tom and Charlie were still fixated on their rivalry. “You better not get in my way defeating this rogue fusion!” said Tom. “Oh yeah? I suggest you stand aside if you don’t want to get beaten down!” said Charlie. So they continued to compete with each other by aiming to be the first to take down The Roseteeth as quickly as possible, with Tom swinging Arkidd’s Toy Hammer towards Roseteeth and Charlie firing Zeustrike’s Energy Shot at the Roseteeth’s direction. They only landed a few hits with Roseteeth dodging most of them and unleashing its Ice Breaker at them, with Tom and Charlie failing to notice the incoming attack. They were both taken down with Roseteeth striking with Bish Bash Bosh.
This caused Tom and Charlie to revert from Arkidd and Zeustrike and realise that they had got caught up in their rivalry. “Hey Charlie, let’s say we put aside our rivalry for now”, said Tom as he held out his hand to him. “Yeah, I was thinking the same”, said Charlie. They both felt so warm holding each other’s hands. They both then apologised for their actions. “I guess I still have a lot to learn, including from you. You did have a point of forming a strategy before rushing in,” said Tom. “Yeah, I should have taken inspiration from your skills and tried to take the opportunity to take advantage of an opening like you have”, said Charlie. “Either way, let’s work together to turn the tide”, said Tom. “I’m with you, Tom, even if we’re from different bands”, said Charlie eagerly, and they turned back into Arkidd and Zeustrike.
With Tom and Charlie working together, they had a better chance against Rosehood by combining their ideas with Charlie firing Zeustrike’s Blizzard towards Rosehood, which slowed down its movements, which gave Tom a chance to charge in using Arkidd’s Snow Rush. They also alerted each other when the Rosehood is about to attack, such as Tom warning Charlie that he was about to get attacked by Rosehood’s Bite and Charlie calling Tom to dodge its Woodcutter. Rosehood was still a tough cookie, striking them both with its Bish Bash Bosh, but they both helped to defend each other.
Use this for when they fused even though it didn't came from Cassette Beasts
“That won’t stop us!” said Charlie with determination. “Yeah, we’ll show that we’re just as talented as each other!” added Tom and their hearts became combined as one with Arkidd and Zeustrike became fused into a small but electrifying robot-like monster, Arkstrike. “Woah! We became fused!” said Tom excitedly. “Let’s see what we can do with this!” said Charlie as they combined their talents by unleashing their Thunder Blast at Roseteeth, which was twice as electrifying, having two lightning-type monsters combined as one (as said by Tom, “Now that was electrifying!”).
The Rosehood was about to fight back by leaping towards them at close range, but Arkstrike countered them by firing its Blizzard, which slowed down its movements, which gave them their cue to attack at close range using Battery, dealing more damage with Rosehood becoming conductive. “I guess both styles work just as well as each other”, said Charlie. “I concur; it’s better to combine our ideas, which creates something awesome!” said Tom, agreeing with him.
“You’re right, and here’s another idea I came up with for us both!” said Charlie as Arkstrike created a barrier made out of electricity using Lightning Wall, which blocked Roseteeth’s attacks, who tried to strike them using Ice Breaker. “Now that’s a great idea! Allow me to follow up with this!” said Tom as Arkstrike attacked Roseteeth with its Toy Hammer while it was obstructed.
Roseteeth then leapt behind them to bypass the Lightning Wall, intending to attack them using Bish Bash Bosh, but Tom alerted Charlie about that, which prompted Arkstrike to counter Roseteeth’s moves by striking first using Battery and firing its Energy Wave. “This is our talent and passion combined...” said Charlie. “As one!” declared Tom as Arkstrike finished off Roseteeth with a powerful fusion move which involves an electrified punching attack using Suring Fist. Roseteeth became separated, having to be defeated, making Arkstrike victorious and changing back into Tom and Charlie.
Morgante then appeared before them, much to their astonishment. “Woah, is this part of the attraction?” asked Tom. “What do you want from us?” asked Charlie cautiously. “Please don’t be alarmed as I’m here to help you brave mortals”, said Morgante as she explained the reasoning of the rouge fusions, the way home and the song as the key to get home. They both take note of all of this.
After Morgante had disappeared, Tom and Charlie made their way out of The Witch House, having to save Brightside Pier from the rogue fusions. “Well, Tom, no matter if we’re from different bands, we’re better off working together or at least maintaining a friendlier rivalry”, said Charlie. “You got that right, but regardless, we’re in this together whenever we’re making music for our wonderful fans and in this case, getting ourselves back home”, said Tom. They both agreed with that and hope that their bandmates and Dominic are doing ok in their battles, working together like a super group should.
