0Chapter 2 - The Caves of Marrowmor
Story: After destroying three motherships which were Dredlich's elite guard, Jarred, Lief, Barda, Jasmine, Sharn, Mira, Oskar, Gothetta and Ella discovered from Dredlich that Kernag the Smeeb is hiding in caves of rocky and desolate planet Marrowmor known as "Skeleton Graveyard" in Tarred River Nebula within Hyperspace which is homeworld of nation of reformed raiders called Punkers of Crimsonland led by Gypsy Esmeralda who fight against Empire of the Night. Millions of years ago, Marrowmor was a hot living planet with a molten core that arced with rivers of golden magma. Marrowmor is now a hollow wreck of endless passages where tunnels snake and stretch for miles which provides perfect hiding place for bandits, space pirates and our heroes's quarry which is Kernag. On Marrowmor, Sherry LeBlanc, Aoi Rokusho, Madara Uchiha, Duen Long aka Breaking Wave, Sa'luk, Azula of Fire Nation and Kylo Ren plot to seize Marrowmor which they threatened to two crimelords who rule Planet Marrowmor through lethal fighting competitions: Steeljaw Jack who is a leader of faction consisting of pirates and mercenaries named Black Faith that rules through trade because tyranny was against their ways, and Mr. Fix who is a powerful inventor, dealer of cars, spare parts, armor and weapons. Azula in particular wanted revenge after being disgraced in aftermath of events of Team Battle Nexus Galactic Championship and victory of Legendary Elementalists against Darchon - The Emperor of the Night and leader of Emperors of the Universe. Steeljaw Jack and Mr. Fix saw this as opportunity to make Empire of the Night's henchmen look like fools, so they arranged to have Empire of the Night face against their all-star dream team of strongest heroes in a team duel. Our heroes were approached by Steeljaw Jack and Mr. Fix who were impressed with Mira's previous heroic achievements for which they plotted to recruit her in all-star dream team of universe's strongest fighters. Mira agreed and Lief went to accompany her and watch her performance with support. Mira's teammates were next individuals: Dashing vigilante called Zorro. Po the Dragon Warrior. Aragorn II Elesar - son of Aratorn. Phoebus who is a gallant war veteran and a husband of gypsy Esmeralda who leads Punkers of Crimsonland. Ang Leung - Chieftain of Golden Dragon Clan, and who is Sharn's new husband. Hercules who is Grand Dragon Master Sage, leader of BangBang Heroicules who are champions of "Team Battle Nexus Galactic Championship" martial arts tournament in Battle Nexus, and one of Twelve Legendary Elementalists chosen by Paradoxion Orb who foiled Empire of the Night's plans of destroying universe and altering fabric of time with elemental powers of Paradoxion Orb. Zorro, Po, Aragorn, Ang, Phoebus, Hercules and Mira are coached by Queen Floria of Rainbow Kingdom from Gundalian Race, and Princess Megan of Zentrix city who have full faith in them how they will put an awesome fight and show Empire of the Night how Heroes of the Universe fight valiantly and as a team. After preparations were finished, Steeljaw Jack and Mr. Fix informed Zorro, Po, Aragorn, Ang, Phoebus, Hercules, and Mira how time has come for all-stars fight to begin. Zorro, Po, Aragorn, Ang, Phoebus, Hercules were all excited while Mira chose to stand firm despite feeling inadequate compared to her teammates. Meanwhile, Jarred, Barda, Jasmine, Sharn, Oskar, Gothetta and Ella make alliance with Esmeralda who offers them her aid to help them find Kernag.
Gameplay: Second levels are easy-medium. Second enemies you will meet here are Mantas, Minelayers and Swifts. Mantas are grey manta-shaped ships with two blue flares which move fast and start going in curvy trajectory whenever you turn your ship to face them directly. Minelayers are enemies that lay sharp spiky mines, and there are two variants which are grey and red. Grey mines will release one bullet in random direction when shot. Red mines will release four bullet in circular-like spread when shot. Swifts are cyan manta-shaped ships with two yellow flares which move fast and start going in curvy trajectory whenever you turn your ship to face them directly just like with Mantas, except Swifts can fire bullets in random directions. Most dangerous obstacle in these levels are minefields full of Barbed Mines which release bullets upon being shot. Barbed Mines with three green flares placed traingularly release only one bullet in random direction when shot. Barbed Mines with three yellow flares placed traingularly release two bullets that go away from each other when shot. Barbed Mines with three green flares placed traingularly release eight bullets that go in a circular spread when shot. Be careful, if you get killed in minefield levels, you will have to pass through another minefield again. Second extra weapon I will explain is Trident. Trident allows you to fire three golden bullets in a small spread. Ammo quantity for Trident is 150.
