Chapter: 3

As they traveled the rocky ground they approached the front part of the base and behind the base was the large palace with an odd glowing gem on the top of it.

"That looks like the dread masters' superweapon to link with the entire galaxy." Ignis said sighing.

"Imagine it... Zombies all over the place, so vile, so terrifying." He said.

"Fun." Dray said smirking walking toward the front of the base.

"What are you doing?" Ignis asked.

"Going to knock." Dray said. As he walked up alone to the front of the base gates he slammed his fist against the door making the clunking sounds.

After a moment the gates peaked open and a Dread Guard was standing there with several other Dread Guards behind him.

"You travel to meet your end?" The one guard asked.

"No just wondering, is the Dread Masters in today?" Dray asked.

"What's it to you?" The one guard asked. "

It's halloween." Dray said.

The guards remained speechless until one had to ask.

"Halloween?" He said.

"Yes, you know the holi-" Dray said until the guard quickly acknowledged it.

"Yes yes we know what that is." He said.

"Well I'm here for my candy." Dray said and to which the guards looked at one another and then back to him.

"You want us to let the Masters know you are here for candy?" The one guard asked confused.

"Yes." Dray said again.

The Guard then blinked and before he said another word jumping up from the hiding place into the air was Lopunny with her foot extended down with a powerful aura around it.

"Trick or Treat mother fuckers!" She said and smashed her foot into the ground making a great earthquake rumbling and even sparking lava to burst from under the rocks along the base and the walls began to break down on top of other guards crushing them down.

"Hurry!" Dray said seeing the flow of lava coming as they ran toward the bridge to the Dread Palace quickly.

As they ran they ran into trouble with Dread Overseers that was powerful force users who were creating a dark matter sphere in front of them to suck in anything in front of them into such sphere.

Ignis threw out two elemental bombs with fire that scorched the men and blew up the portals combining an element to a dark matter to ruin such power. As this happened there was one large isotope-5 droid marching on the bridge shooting at them with missiles.

Dray used his force power to grab all of them and then push them right back exploding the large isotope droid. As it fell over down however it started to crack the bridge as the lava on the other end made it unstable.

"Girls dash!" He said grabbing ahold of Aruriania and using force sprint.

Lopunny grabbed Ignis and did the same thing as the other girls did and they made it to the other end before the bridge fell into the lava.

"Well... now we need to find another way out of here." Ignis said.

"You little twerps won't go no farther!" A darkened voice said.

They turned there heads only to witness one of the Dread Masters, Styrak at the top of some stairs into the main palace. Around him were Dread Soldiers and Guards all ready to fight them.

"Dread Master Sytrak." Ignis whispered to Dray and his family.

"Dread Master Styrak!" Dray shouted from a far.

"How... How did you know my name?" Styrak asked curiously shouting back.

"I felt it through the force." Dray said and Ignis behind him was mouth dropped.

"Your that powerful?" Styrak said curiously and opened his arms.

"You should join our cause, be one of many to-" All of a sudden Serenity used a powerful Psychic mind sweep into Styraks mind but only for Styrak to fight against it with his nightmare power to surface into Serenity's mind to try to stop her and by that using the nightmare power to corrupt Serenity's mind seeing scary things.

At this time the guards and soldiers ran right at them.

"Dray!" Aruriania shouted and used her underworld power to fire an aura wave at some of the soldiers knocking them into the ground and there bodies catching on fire with her element with it.

Soon Serenity had to stop the Psychic power and try to seal her own mind from the nightmare power from Styrak.

"Attack!" Styrak ordered as his forces ran at them.

Dray and Aruriania using their power to attack back, as this was happening Styrak himself walked down the stairs activating his lightsaber that was Purple colored.

"You will give in to despair!" Styrak said being tall and quite bulky he charged at Ignis who spun his daggers to block the incoming lightsaber attack and soon engaged in battle with Styrak.

As this was happening, Serenity quickly ran toward some of the soldiers activating her lightsabers and slicing down as many as she could. Ignis still fighting Styrak quickly spun around with two elemental potions coming out of his vest that was ice and lightning. Once they came out he swung his blades at them to shatter them and they exploded right into Styraks' body causing some damage to him.

"Argh!" Styrak yelled and got back up roaring at Ignis and swinging his lightsaber rapidly at him.

"You will not do that again!" Styrak said as he was bashing his lightsaber against Ignis' weapons.

"No... I won't... but this!" Ignis said.

Ignis quickly slid right under Styrak under his robe and onto the other side and teleported his daggers away to summon a lance which he threw as he threw it, it had a powerful shock wave burst causing Styraks lightsaber to fling backward back from his hand and before he could reposition for a defense it was too late and Ignis' lance pierced right through Styarks stomach out his back.

Styrak coughed up and blood poured from his masks teeth holes and he fell over dead. Soon the rest of the soldiers and guards was killed and Dray took a breath and walked over to Ignis who was fine waving his hand to Dray indicating he was.

"Good work Ignis." Dray said and looked down at Styraks' body.

However, Styraks' body was then dissolving away and a red fog sucked his body into the ground and his body vanished.

"Thats not good... we must hurry inside." Ignis said.

"What happened?" Lopunny asked.

"They will try to revive him if we don't hurry inside to stop them... we don't need more trouble." Ignis said and dashed in as soon they all followed up behind.
