Jeran yelled, "Over here, you rotten pile of sludge!" That
got the Jukkub's attention. With a roar of anger, the Jukkub charged. Instead
of running away, Jeran ran towards it.
When they were about to collide in the middle
of the room, Jeran jumped over the Jukkub and ran towards the wall. The Jukkub,
surprised, fired energy blasts at Jeran. The lasers were eating Jeran's dust.
Jeran was closing in on the wall. He had just
enough speed to run up the wall and on the ceiling, which was exactly what he
did. The Jukkub's laser blasts were very close to Jeran's feet. Jeran was almost
going to fall back down, and was so close to the sword when... He grabbed the
sword hilt!
He fell back down gripping the sword, which
was yanked free. Jeran was just above the Jukkub. He landed, sword point first.
The sword buried itself in the Jukkub's head.
The Jukkub exploded, and the three Kikubs flew through the air and crashed on
the floor. With a growl of anger the three Kikubs got up and charged at Jeran.
"It's seems you have forgotten about my sword!"
Jeran yelled. The Kikubs tried to break and run away, but were to close to Jeran.
SLICE! SLICE! SLICE!
The Kikubs exploded and the three absorbed Kiko
warriors were released from their bodies. All six of them were unconscious on
the floor. Jeran heard a loud cracking sound. The ceiling was going to collapse!
He grabbed the Kikos and sprinted out the room. He got out just before the ceiling
fell.
The loud sound of the ceiling falling awakened
the three Red Kikos. They were very happy to finally be free from the Kikubs.
They thanked Jeran and shook the Lupe's hand.
Jeran explained what was going on and told the
three to go down the elevator rope to the main floor, and they'll meet a Blue
Acara. He told them to help the Acara break down what he's ramming at. The three
Kikos grabbed onto the elevator rope and slid down. Jeran looked up into the
inky blackness above him.
"Well, it'll be a long way to the top..." he
said to himself. He grabbed the elevator rope and began to climb up.

Aizen
Aizen could hardly keep conscious while being electrocuted by some 5,000 volts.
Propelled in the air by Pooglex Prime's magic, he had to do something quick
or he would be a roasted Eyrie. He did the only thing he could do to save himself,
stop Pooglex. He threw his sword right at Pooglex's head.
The sword hilt hit Pooglex right in the head,
hard. Pooglex fell backwards and hit the ground. The electricity shocking Aizen
disappeared, and the Eyrie dropped back to firm ground.
Metriod Prime, the absorbed fire Poogle warrior,
exited Pooglex's body as a bright ball of energy. After Metriod went twenty
feet or so, he changed back into his true form, a Poogle. Now that Metriod was
gone from his body, Pooglex was back to Baby color again. The Baby Poogle got
up and saw Metriod Prime, right in his face.
"This is for absorbing me." He punched Pooglex
in the stomach. "This is for using me for evil." He kicked Pooglex in the face,
and Pooglex flew back and onto the end of the ledge that he was once playing
the organ at. Pooglex could was holding tightly to the end of the ledge's end,
and was trying to get back up.
"And this," Metriod Prime shouted, "Is for the
good of all! Die!!!" He fired energy blasts out his hands that were made of
real fire. Pooglex's fur began to burn, and the end of the ledge, made of stone,
was melting!
"I said die!" Metriod fired a giant fireball
at Pooglex, which was almost ten feet tall. The blast hit Pooglex, hard. The
end of the ledge cracked, and Pooglex fell with it, the whole two thousand feet.
Metriod Prime looked back at Aizen, who was sitting on a rock like all that
Metriod had done was like a movie.
"Thank you," Metriod said, "For defeating Pooglex.
What's going on right now?" Aizen explained the situation to Prime and said
that Prime should go down to the ground level and fight the petpet horde with
the knights. Prime was already charging down the mountain, Million Degree Sword
in hand.
Aizen entered the elevator and hit the button
for the third floor. This time, it went up. He exited when it stopped at the
third floor. He was in Domar's room. Domar was looking outside, hands on the
glowing stone. It was time for the final fight.
***
Main Floor
Roy was still banging at the caved in part of the door when the three Kikos
came. Loud cracking noises could be heard occasionally, but the Acara was nowhere
from breaking the rubble apart.
Roy noticed the Kikos and asked, "Who are you?"
"We are the three Kiko warriors of Sanka," one
warrior answered.
"You mean the pile of rubble Southwest of Meridell?"
With a growl he answered, "Yes. We were sent
by a Lupe knight to help you break through that rubble."
"Unless you're an expert digger you won't do
any good at breaking this down," the Acara replied.
"But we are expert diggers. It was our second
job back at Sanka. Please step aside." Roy moved out of the way, and the three
Red Kikos got to work.
***
Outside
ErkleZerkle was just about to be crushed by the petpets when twelve flying
knights hoisted him into the air and carried him away! Tubba29, Scot, and ChristmasTheAngel
were back too back fighting the horde.
From the start of the fight, Tubba had smacked
petpets right in the face with his two maces. Petpets would fly through the
air when he hit them. Being a Tyrannian Meerca, he already had a built in spear
and was using it.
ChristmasTheAngel slashed apart evil petpets
with his swords and used his bow whenever he got the chance. Scot continued
to do what he was doing earlier and was also swinging his axe around himself.
All of Jeran's old schoolmates (but Roy) were all very close to each other in
the battle when...
Roy broke through the rubble! After the Kikos
had set up secret mining tools to make the rubble weak, Roy only had to hit
it once to break through. The Kikos followed right behind Roy, wielding the
weapons they had stored in their bodies during absorption, Kiko Swords.
Just then, Metriod Prime landed in the sand,
right in the middle of the horde, sword point first. He had jumped in the air
and crashed down after falling one thousand feet, so the petpets near him where
blown away by a large ring of dust.
"Who wants to mess with me?" Metriod said with
a sneer at the petpets. The petpets around the Poogle charged, but braked to
a halt when Metriod's body burned red. The fire Poogle was engulfed in a fireball,
and his strength doubled.
"I'm waiting!" the Poogle yelled. The petpets
around him backed up a bit. "Fine, if you don't want to go first, I will!" The
Poogle threw his arms up, and the fireball around him broke apart into tinier
fireballs, one for each petpet circling him. Metriod put his hands in front
of his face, and opened them. The fireballs flew around in crazy circles, finding
their petpet target. In a matter of seconds, fifty petpets had their evil curse
released.
During the distraction, Roy and the Kikos had
escorted Jeran's old schoolmates inside because they were closest to the door.
The rubble closed again just when they got inside.
***
Inside
"We need to get inside the elevator, and fast!" Roy shouted.
"What about ErkleZerkle?" Tubba asked.
"We'll all fit inside the elevator, I'm sure
of it!" A shadowy figure of a Kiko ninja blocked the elevator
Scot asked, "Who are you and what do you want?"
"I am one of Domar's Shadow Guardso," the shadow
Kiko said. "At the battle of Meriheim, my comrades and I were killed fighting.
Pooglex used magic on my soul so I could fight one last time."
"So what? You're not getting past us now, puny
fighter," Roy said.
"One puny fighter, or many!" the Kiko yelled.
As soon as the Shadow Guard had said 'many', dozens of Shadow colored Shadow
Guards appeared. "Let the fight begin!" Every Shadow Guard said at once when
they disappeared into the air like they were made of dust.
***
Aizen
"It's been a very long time, Domar," Aizen said loudly.
"Indeed it has, Aizen," Domar said as if he
had already known that Aizen was in the room without even looking. After a few
seconds took his hands off the stone and began walking around the room. "I remember
perfectly what had happened years ago, every movement, every word. Why? This
scar on my face! I wonder where I got it... Aizen!"
Aizen took his sword out and said, "Let's get
this over with. Fight me now!" Domar took out a Sword of Domar from his storage
chamber, one that was different from the rest because it was three times bigger.
"This is a Greater Sword of Domar," The Gelert
said, "Forged by me myself in the lava pits of the mountain. It is the perfect
blade to use against you. Prepare to lose. Raaaah!" Domar charged right at Aizen's
face. "Time to give you a scar you won't forget, Aizen!"
***
Back to the Shadow Guard Fight
After every Shadow Guard disappeared, the room was silent. Then, a Shadow
Grarrl reappeared behind Scot and slashed him in the back with his Shadow Axe.
Scot winced in pain and fell down, only to turn
around and say, "Now I get it, so you want to play sneaky now, don't ya? I'll
show you sneaky!" The Pteri charged at the Grarrl and slashed his axe, only
to find that the Grarrl had teleported again. He could predict that the Grarrl
would be behind him so he spun around 180 degrees and slashed, only to find
the Grarrl had teleported again.
Scot would constantly turn around and slash
right when the Grarrl would teleport. Soon he and the Grarrl were going so fast
Scot was a giant blur. Then...
SLICE!
The other knights watched as Scot slowed down. Nobody knew who was hit with
an axe, Scot or the Grarrl. It looked as if Scot was hit because the Pteri was
exhausted and looked like he was about to fall. The Grarrl was right in front
of him.
Then, Scot smirked. The Shadow Grarrl's left
hand fell off and hit the ground. It turned to dust and blew away with the wind.
"That's how I'm sneaky, Grarrl," Scot said.
The Pteri lifted his axe up, and charged towards the Grarrl. The rest of the
Grarrl's body did just what his arm had done when it hit the ground. "One already
dead fighter done, twenty some to go! Show yourselves, Shadow Guards!" Scot
yelled.
The Shadow Guards did reappear, every last one
of them. All the knights and the Kiko warriors took their weapons out and charged
at the Guards. The Guards also charged. Right when they were about to collide,
the Guards teleported. The Shadow Guards reappeared in many different places
around the room.
More next part!
