Umm... Actually... Yeah, but when I thought of the name, I got the idea of Clutch as in the ones in the car, and I just added "Von" to make it look more... foreign.

I dont really know much about crash bandicoot but... never mind

Here is the continuation of the 1st Chapter of the story! I thought it would be longer to finish but, it's finished, so here it is. Enjoy!

Chapter 2: The Hunt

Raphael and his side-kick, Clarabelle, got in his car, a Bentley, oh and his most prized possession, and went on to go to the Head Office. They just drove past a coffee shop when Clarabelle asked
"Who really is that guy?", She said
"His name is Rupert Von Clutch"
"Rupert von who?", Confused
"Rupert Von Clutch, the lunatic who tried to rule the world using a bug"
"I've never met him before"
"Figures."

10 minutes later ther got to the Head Office. To start with, the head office wasnt really a "Head Office" becuase it is actually just an old abandoned museum. The outside was covered with out-of-date paint, and has little cracks all over, the inside was also the same, except it has spiderwebs. The only was to get to the Head Office is by going underground. Oh sorry, by asking the figure of Elvis Presley to open the gate, then go underground.

Raphael and Clarabelle walked in and saw the figure of Elvis Presley, holding a microphone.
"Good Day", Raphael began
Suddenly the wax figure of Elvis began to move
"Do you have an appointment?", the figure of Elvis said.
"No, but we need to see the Grand Sorcerer immediately", he hesitated
"I will tell the Administrator to escort you there.", he... erm, it said... Oh whatever...

After 30 seconds or so had passed.
"Can you sing?", Clarabelle said, at last
"What?", the figure said
"Can you sing? Your Elvis right? So, can you sing?", she repeated again
"I can open doors", it said
"But you cant sing"
"I can contact the administrator"
"I said can you sing?"
"No", it said at last.

Then the door opened. The administrator was escorted by 2 sorcerers, one on the left and the other on the right. These days, sorcerers were used to be escorts or security. Funny huh?
"Who do you wish to seek?", the administrator said.
"We are here for the Grand Sorcerer", Raphael said.
"Come with me"

Then they followed the Administrator inside, but before the gate outside closed, Clarabelle looked at the Elvis figure, then the door closed. Sorcerers roamed the Office, always busy with their work. Clarabelle tried to look at the faces of the sorcerers but all were covered in their dark visors to avoid getting attention. Raphael and Clarabelle were led to a coffee table and they were asked to wait there.
"Do you want anything? Coffee, or Water perhaps?", The Administrator said.
Clarabelle wanted to ask for some cake and coke but before she could ask, Raphael said.
"No", he said sternly.

Clarabelle frowned, then the Administrator left.
"What did you do that for?", she said
"What?", Raphael said
"you said No"
"Yes I did"
"Why?"
"Bacause I'm not hungry"
"I am"
"You should've asked"
"Before I could, he already left"
"Then that's your fault"

Clarabelle sighed. They waited for almost an hour.
"Yep, we should've asked for food", Raphael said at last
"See?", Clarabelle said

The door opened than the Grand Sorcerer came, wearing a long robe as usual, he was escorted by 3 lesser sorcerers, one each on the sides and the one on the back.

"What brings you here Raphael?", The Grand Sorcerer asked as if Clarabelle wasn't there.
"We are here to bring you. . .news"
"What kind?", The sorcerer said, with an arched eyebrow.
"Good news.", Raphael lied
"OK, hit me"
"The guy who just captured me isn't involved with Revil. His name is Von Clutch, a lunatic who wants to conquer the world."
"How is that good news?", The Grand Sorcered scowled.
"That's good news to me! I'm free!"
"So? What now?"
"What now?"
"That's what I just said, What now?"
"Now?"
"Yes, now!", The Sorcerer said, starting to get annoyed.
"Now, we eat. I'm hungry", Raphael said, rubbing his belly.
"There's a crazy guy on loose who wants to bring back Gummpy and your just gonna eat?"
"Yep. I need my belly to defeat him then."
"Are you mad?"
"No, I'm hungry"
"Oh fine then, you go and eat. But before you do I have some news for you too"
"OK, what is it?"
"Revil has just arrived from Dublin, and he left a little message for us.", He said as he pulled out a tiny piece of papaer.
"We found this on one of our dead guards."
The Sorcerer cleared his throat and began.
"Eggs, Meat, Beef Jerkey, erm... Wait, this is my shopping list. Where is that note?", He scrambled his pockets to check for notes. Clarabelle laughed silently but Raphael signalled Clarabelle to be silent.
"Ah, here it is. It says, Are you enjoying the world you live in now? Not for long, because our Dark Gods will punish all who rebels on them. Oh, and say hello to Raphael for me. He will be seeing me very soon.", The Sorcerer crampled the note and threw it away and turned to Raphael.
"You still wanna eat?", The Sorcerer said, amusement in his face.
"Yep", Raphael said
"For crying out loud!", All the amusement gone from the Sorcerers voice.
"Dont worry, as soon as we finish we'll be on our way"
"You better be!"

Then Clarabelle and Raphael walked out and left the Office, They got on inside the Bantley then Clarabelle asked, "Where are we eating?"
"Here", Raphael said
"What?"
"Yes, here. You deaf or something?"
"No!", she said defensively
"I thought that too"
"What are we goinng to eat?"
Raphael laughed histerically.
"Whats so funny?", Clrabelle said.
"You really think were eating inside my car? A guy like me cant afford that. It's too risky. It's tough to get the stains out you know"
"Then where are we eating?"
"McDonalds" (Not Advertising)
"Ok."

They drove for 5-7 minutes or so when Raphael said.
"I'm smart huh?", Raphael said
"What?", Clarabelle said, confused
"I'm smart."
"And why is that?"
"Coz I am"
"You have a very huge ego"
"And you have a very little brain"
"I hate you", Clarabelle said joking
"I know. Coz I just figured out where Revil will be going next"
"In this car? While driving?"
"Yep"
"You really are smart"
"Of course i am. I'm a Detective"
"Oh shut up"

On the other side, Revil has just got his way out of the Airport, of course leaving dead bodies behind. He took out his phone and dialled a number. The phone rang for 3 rings then someone picked it up.
"Is it ready?", Revil said
"Yes, it will be there in 30 minutes", The voice in the phone said
"Good. Get ready for the rise of our Gods. They will be here very soon"
"I am prepared for it. By the way, do you still have the money I asked?"
"Yes"
"Good. How do you want me to kill him? Tortured or instant death?"
"I prefer torture. I like him to be next to me as he screams in pain"
"As you wish."
"I gotta be going now"
"Of course"
Then he Ended the call and a menacing smile grew in his face as he walked further and further from the airport.

To be continued. . .

So, how do you guys like the story? Still good? Or needs improvement?

I lul'd.

Raphael wrote:
"Can you sing?", Clarabelle said, at last
"What?", the figure said
"Can you sing? Your Elvis right? So, can you sing?", she repeated again
"I can open doors", it said
"But you cant sing"
"I can contact the administrator"
"I said can you sing?"
"No", it said at last.

Thanks for the compliment.
Next chapter will be 2-4 Days from now.
So, stay tuned. And for those of you who havent read it yet, then read!

Here are more of the Characters description:
The Head Sorcerer - The most powerful sorcerer in the world. In the good side at least. Too controlative, whatever that means, but A great leader.

Sorcerer Guards - Are the guars, Police, and the line of defense inside the Office. These guys wear visors to cover their faces, which I think is particularly odd.

"Elvis" statue - Opens doors. Oh, and he doesn't sing.

Administrator - (Not the ZE administrator to clear that), He is the one that escorts the office's officers. Relatively strong.

Chapter 3: Invasion

They just finished eating. Clarabelle looked at her watch, and was shocked as she looked at it.
"Oh, hell I gotta get home", Clarabelle said. A little worried
"What? Oh, yes home, OK. Come on.", Raphael said.

They got inside the Bentley and drove away. They got to Clarabelle's house in just 30 minutes.
"See ya' tommorow then. Oh, and tell me what you'll be getting all right?", Raphael said.
"OK", she replied.

Raphael left. Clarabelle rubbed her hands then, the air around her rippled, then lifting her up to her room. Why does she have powers? As I said, Clarabelle, Raphael, and the others in the story have powers, so get used to it .
She snuck into her window to see her reflection doing her homework.

- Clarabelle has another reflection to take cover for her while she's gone. Raphael made it appear through a mirror, and used her as a replacement for Clarabelle while she's gone. The reflection has no feelings of it's own. Her parents might look at the "Clarabelle" double as kinda weird. The Clarabelle replacement does what he original Clarabelle does. Go to school, eat dinner with parents, do homework, walk to the bus stop, and al those stuff that 16-year-old girls do. But since Clarabelle started her adventure of fighting "lunatics" who want to conquer the world, or bring back the Dark God, gummpy, she hasnt been a normal girl since then. She thinks that life was boring without fighting bad guys, so. . . She requested a double from Raphael. She is also training to be an elemental. But, unlike Raphael she needs to focus to use her powers. Back to the story. . .

Her reflection said, "Your home early."
"Yep, I am.", the original Clarabelle said.
"I'm doing your math homework. The first 6 questions were easy, but I dont know how to solve the rest."
"I can do it."
"OK. Are you ready to resume your life?", The relection asked.
"Yes"
Then the reflection touched the nearest mirror it could see, when the reflection touched the mirror, it was gone.
The original Clarabelle touched the mirror second after the reflection touched it. Then, a flood of memory came to her. She can remember having dinner with her parents although she wasnt exactly there. It was an odd feeling. Sorta like being at two places at once. But, she was used to it.
She changed her clothes and went downstairs.
Her father was going around the house, as if there was something missing.
Her mother was near the door waiing for her father to come along.
"Hey sweetheart", Gale(I think it's a good match), a.k.a. Clarabelle's mother exclaimed.
"Hey mom I'm going to the beach", Clarabelle asked.
"OK"

Clarabelle walked for about 5 minutes before reaching the beach. She likes to be alone. She thinks of it as relaxing. In her childhood days, she used to spend most of her time in the beach, catching little crabs, and collecing shells. But, all thatwas over now. Now, she wants to be alone.
But then her father came.
"Hey Clarabelle", Her father said
"Hey dad. Why arent you at work?", Carabelle said.
"I have a meeting this afternoon. But, when I left the house, I left something very important.
"What did you left? Your architect plans or something?"
"Yes, something like that." Then there was a brief silence. Then here dad confessed. "Actually nothing like that. I forgot my underwear."
Clarabelle looked at her dad. "What?"
"It happens sometimes when your doing something that you forget it. Usually it doesnt bother me, but this trousers really really itch-"
"Dad, ew, I dont wanna know", Clarabelle said, disgusted.
"All right. i gotta be going now. I'm gonna get my underwear then get back to work"
"OK dad. Good Luck in your meeting"
Her dad smiles as he walked away. About 4 minutes or so her phone rang.
Clarabelle answered it.
"Hello?", Clarabelle said.
"It's me", Rpahael answered.
"Oh"
"We got bad news"
"What is it?"
"the first bad news is that Revil is already in town. He just murdered 14 sorcerers. And I suspect that he wasnt alone"
"Then whats the other bad news?"
"I ran outta toilet paper."
"What? You called me because you ran out of tolet paper? How is tha bad news?"
"I didnt say it's bad news for you.", Raphael clarified.
"All right. I'll get you your toilet paper. I'll just hail a cab to your place."
"Thank you!"
Then she hung up.
She went back to her house and went directly upstairs. She touched the mirror and here reflection came out.
"Hello", her reflection said.
"I need you to cover for me while I'm gone. Can you do that?"
"It's my job."
"Thanks."
"No problem."

Then Clarabelle slid out of her house, then went to the roof. She rubbed her hands and the air around her rippled and carried her to the ground. Then she walked to the Cab stand and waited for a cab.
She got a cab 4 minutes later. She first stopped to a grocery store and bought a toilet paper, then headed to Raphael's place.

She got to the building and went up 6 floors, then knocked on the door named "Room 621". After a while Raphael opned the door.
"Do you have the toilet paper?", Raphael asked
"Here.", Clarabelle sad as she was handing the toiet paper.
"I'll just do my thing while you wait here."
"OK"
Then Raphael headed to the toilet.
Clarabelle taked a look around. The apartment was perfectly the same as when she last visited. The only thing that changed was the bed sheet. Then she went to the living room and watched some TV. After about 9 minutes someone knocked at the door.
Clarabelle thought to herself who would knock at Raphael's door. As she was walking towards the door, the door smashed into pieces and a man came inside.
"Hello Clarabelle. Am I interrupting something?" The man said
"Revil!", Clarabelle muttered.

Then Raphael ran out of the Restroom and saw Revil.
"Yes. Your interrupting something. I'm making a toilet disposal."
"Oh, Sorry.", Revil said sarcastically, the he launched himself at Raphael.
Raphael dodged the attack, but Revil continued and smashed at the table. The table was smashed.
"Your gonna have to pay for that", Raphael said.
Revil cursed, and got up. Revil got a piece of wood from the table and threw it to Raphael. Raphael dodged the first wood but the second one hit him in the head, and knocked him unconscious. Revil got up and tried to find Clarabelle, but before he could Clarabelle smashed a vase to Revil's head. Revil fell to the ground and tried to get up. He looked at Clarabelle.
"Why you...", he said as he took out a knife from his pocket.

He attacked Clarabelle, Clarabelle dodged 4 slashes from the knife. The 5th caught her knee and she fell.
"Your so weak. Why should I even waste my time killing you?", Revil mocked.

Clarabelle grunted but then looked at Revil just in time to see Revil carry Raphael outside of the room. Clarabelle heard a few sceam from the neighbours. She tried to get up and chase Revil but when she got out, she was too late.

Clarabelle got her phone and dialled a number. Then phone rang for a moment then someone answered.
"Hello?", The man in the phone said.
"Hey Karroth. Revil's got Raphael"
"What?", Karroth siad
"They got Raphael. Listen, Call Marr, then tell her to come to your house. I'll just fix my wound in the office then I'l head ther etoo OK?"
"You have a wound?"
"Duh."
"Just asking. Anyways, I'll do what you ask."
"All right. Thanks. Bye"
Then she hung up the phone. She dialled another number. The Offce's number
The phone rang again for a moment. Then The Head Sorcerer answered.
"Clarabelle, this better be important.", The H.S. said. (H.S. = Head Sorcerer. Remember that from now on)
"Revil's got Raphael"
"What? Where are you?"
"I'm in Raphael's house."
"I'll send someone to pick you up, then i'll send another someone to guide you in finding Raphael."
"How many someones are you going to send?"
"Just wait there.", H.S. said sternly.
"All right."
Then the H.S. hung up the phone.

Clarabelle got out of the building to wait for the "someone" to pick her up.



To be continued...

So guys. How do you like it?

Chapter 4: The Plan

30 minutes later, someone picked Clarabelle up. Clarabelle was surprised to see the administrator inside the van. The Administrator came out.
"Clarabelle, are you hurt?", The Administrator quickly ask.
"A little bit. Just a cut from my leg", Clarabelle replied, trying to sound sarcastic.
"Let's get you to Dr. Ashan then", Th Administrator suggested.
"Sure"

Then Clarabelle got in the van, and the van drove off.
30 minutes later and the van came to a stop. They were back at the old museum again.
They got to the "Elvis" wax figure. The Administrator asked the figure to open the doors, and without hesitation, the figure opened the door.
They walked past a group of sorcerers, in their visors as usual. Then they walked for another minute,then got to the lab.
(Odd isnt it? Your injured, and go to a lab? Makes you look like a test subject)
This lab is owned by Dr. Ashan, and old proffesor who is really skilled in magic potions. (Sorry ashan for using your name without permission, no offence either)
But make no mistake. Unlike other Doctors in our ordinay world, this doctor has the most effective medicines in the world.
His medicines can heal a cut 500x faster then our natural recovery, so that means, if you sliced your hand, instead of waiting for weeks to perfectly heal our skin, this medicine can heal your wound and skin in just seconds.
But enough about that, back to the story.

Dr. Ashan looked at Clarabelle, not being surprised about the cut.
"What is it this time? A tree attacked you?", Dr. Ashan joked.
"A cut from Revil", Clarabelle replied.
"Come here. Sit down", Dr. Ashan commanded.

Clarabelle obeyed, and she sat down. Dr. Ashan mixed diffeent types of herbs then dropped some potin into the bowl. He mixed it, then mixed a different kind of potion, then the bowl glowed. It only glowed for 10 seconds, then the glow faded. Dr. Ashan turned again to Claabelle.
"Still fascinated with my magic potions?", Dr. Ashan asked, very proud of himself.
"Yep. They never get older", Clarabelle said.
"Show me your cut."

Clarabelle showed him her cut.
"Thats kinda big.", Dr. Ashan told her.
"Yes it is.", Clarabelle agreed.
"Hold on, this might sting a little"

Then Dr. Ashan put the potion mixture into Clarabelle's cut. Clarabelle jerked his leg a little, then she relaxed.

"Wait for the wound to disappear", Dr. Ashan said

After 20-30 seconds, the wound was gone. It looks as if there were no woounds at all.
"Wow, thanks", Clarabelle said.
"No problem", Dr. Ashan said.

Clarabelle got out of the "Lab", then went to the H.S.(aka, High Sorcerer)
The H.S. got out, then told Clarabelle immediately, "What's your plan"
"We'll talk about it.",Clarabelle said
"I'll give you 5 sorcerers for your escort", The H.S. said
"Thank you"

Then the H.S. gave a whistle then 5 sorcerers came immediately. Then Clarabelle got out of the office, and heads to Karroth's house.

Karroth's house wasnt exactly a house. It was more of a tailoring shop than a house. But of course it is actually a tailoring shop.
Karroth came to Clarabelle then looked at the Sorcers.
"What are they doing here?", Karroth asked.
"Reinforcements", Clarabelle said
"Only 5?"
"Yep"
"When will the High Sorcerer learn that we are always the underdog", Karroth gave a sigh, "Anyways, come on let's talk about the plan. Marr is already waiting"
"Guys, please stay here", Clarabelle said

One of the sorcerers nodded and stayed there.

Clarabelle found Marr reading one of her uncle's books. Marr always loved the book made by Clarabelle's grampa.
Marr looked at Clarabelle.
"Hello Clara, nice to see you", Marr said
"You too", Clarabelle said
"I've just finished reading 2 of your uncle's books and I am loving it!"
"Really! Me too, it was only just-"
Then Karroth cleared his throat then said. "May we?"
"Anytime", Clarabelle said.
"Good. Ok, now here's how it works. The 5 sorcerers will be jumping first to check if there is any guards. If there is any, then they will take care of it for us. After that we jump next. Again, we let the sorcerers check on the surrounding if any more guards lurk. If there is any guard guarding, we wont kill it, the other guards might send off the alarm. So, we just sneak past through it. After that, we get in a window, of course the sorcerers still first in line. When the sorcerers get in, they wil kill any guard they see, then we get in next. That is the time we find Raphael.", Karroth said, taking in big amounts of air.
"You make it all sound so easy", Clarabelle said.
"I did, to give you confidence", Karroth replied.
"Well, I bet the sorcrers lost all their confidence when they hear this"
"I hope not"
"There is one thing thats still bugging me", Marr said.
"What?", Both Clarabelle and Karroth said
"Where is the hideout?"
"Thats very easy. The hideout is in... in... Your right, I dont know", Karroth said.

In an underground hideout:
"Hello Raphael", A mysterious voice said.
"Hello", Raphael said.
"I'm Revil", Revil replied
"Oh?"
"Yes"
"Ok..."
The Silence grew for a moment, but then Revil broke it.
"Where's my things?", Revil asked
"What things?", Raphael wondered.
"The things I need to bring gummpy back"
"Oh, those things."
"Yes, those things."
"I'm not telling you"
"Fine then. Prepare to be tortured!"
"OK"
"You know what I've always missed about you?"
"What?"
"You always say funny things before getting hurt"
"Did I?"
"Yes. Now prepare!!"
"Hit me wth your best shot then", Raphael said, feeling brave
"That's what I like about you!", Revil smiled.
Then Raphael screamed in pain.
