It took long enough. With this among other things on my plate, it wasn't a pleasant ride typing it all down, but the second chapter is here.
In this chapter, you've met some familiar faces. Let's start with Rikku. Rikku has basically filled you all in on the current situation in Jump City. Brother Blood, Baron Praxis and his Krimzon Guards now rule with an iron fist. Civilians go on with their normal lives, surprisingly, but heroes become criminals by the mere act of heroism.
With their permission (I call it agreement), two forum members make their appearances here. Their roles have obviously made a big impact, but I'll try not to butcher my story too much. However, there are some things I want to point out.
The original confrontation scene was just between Beatrix and Leon. Notice how that has changed with the number of characters that are now involved. But the outcome is the same: Beatrix ended the battle with -- you guessed it -- Shock. Gilgamesh's and Deadpool's appearances were mostly for the lulz, but my main reason for Gilgamesh is because I've recently become obsessed with FFV. And with this being a reboot, some things just deserve to be added.
As for Deadpool's appearance, I must admit. He had me at gunpoint, okay? I made the mistake of snickering when he commented he wanted to see the cherry blossoms in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2. He spares my life (for now), he gets to be in the story, and some Cheesy Puffs were thrown in for good measure. So everybody's happy.
(The above statement is not a true story, so don't bother with the questions.)
Anyway, questions and comments concerning the story are always welcome, so feel free to post. Good day!
EDIT: Also, the way Agent A shoots Deadpool so many times is a reference to the vid on my sig.
