I don't own The Suite Life of Zack and Cody or Hannah Montana. And yes, I know I took a long time to update.
"Let me get this straight one more time. You're Hannah Montana, and that hologram was made to replace you?"
"Not replace me, just take my place for a while." Miley was getting irritable trying to explain everything. Her family was in danger, she didn't have enough time to go through the finer details of her secret life.
The small group was walking through the forest where they had crashed, trying to get to the electric plant.
"You do know that mom is going to kill us when she finds out that we ran off with a pop star who's really a normal girl to destroy a bunch of holograms that are threatening our world." Cody told his brother.
"Will she even believe us?" Zack wondered, tripping over a root.
"Just tell her it's all Arwin's fault." Maddie suggested.
"Hey! I am not……….Oh mother of all that is good and pure." Arwin said, looking up at their first view of the electric plant. It loomed over all of them, huge and uninviting.
"Well, it was nice visiting you, got to be going now." London announced turning around and heading back into the woods. Zack immediately turned around too.
"London, you do know that our airplane crashed and we can't go anywhere." Maddie said, even though she looked scared too.
Miley turned to the group, looking pale and nervous, but determined. "Okay, you guys all stay here. I'm going to go in alone, and Arwin will repair your plane and get you guys out of here."
"What? You can't go in there all by yourself." Maddie protested.
"Sure she can, bye!" London waved cheerily and turned around again.
"London! Listen Miley…." But as Maddie turned to talk, she saw that Miley had vanished again.
"Oh, great. She went after them herself." Zack rolled his eyes, exhausted. "What do we do now?"
Arwin grinned suddenly, "I think I've got a plan."
Cody and Maddie looked at each other and simultaneously said, "Oh no."
Lily's blond hair whipped around as she flipped and turned throughout the electric plant. She was running on walls, shooting beams of light, strong and tough. She had never felt this awesome before!
Of course, the hologram knew how beautiful it was to have a human body for yourself, and what a gift from The Great One it had been. Miss Hannah had been most merciful and most gracious as to allow her to be the one to fight and bring Miley Stewart to her.
Her eyes glowed as she used her powers to scan through the powerhouse and detect any life force. There….! Right.. where she was standing. Becoming a human was going to take some getting used to. Then another life force came up on her radar. It was walking through the lower part of the plant! Yessssss! The Great One would be so pleased! Now The Great One could finally get the body she so deserved.
Miley was climbing the staircase to the top of the power plant. She knew that was where Hannah would be. At the very top, surveying all that she "ruled". Miley had no idea what she would do when she confronted her, so she just decided to improv.
And then, suddenly, she was face down on the ground with no knowledge of what had just hit her but a flash of blond. Raising her face, she saw Lily.
"Lily, sweet niblets! You escap-" She was immediately cut off by Lily pinning her to the ground, her foot on her throat.
"Lily?" Miley rasped. "Lily?"
Lily responded by crushing her leg down even harder on Miley's throat. Her eyes glowed with electricity, and she raised her hand to send a powerful blow to finish Miley off when a loud voice rang in her head.
"Oh no you don't! Get away from her! Miley!" It sounded like her voice! But she was right….
"That's right! You stop this right now! Hang on Miley!" She-She was lowering her hand! Why was she lowing her hand? Why was her foot coming off of Miley's throat? Why-Why was her hand pointing at herself-
Lily was blasted a full 10 feet in the air as the light beam hit her right underneath her head. As she crashed on the floor, the hologram flowed out of her like water. It glanced at the two girls who lay motionless on the floor, raised her hand to attack, and then thought better of it and ran off.
Miley slowly began to regain consciousness as her throat gulped down the cool, nourishing air. Finally, the throbbing in her head reduced to a small pain, and she stroked her neck to make sure it wasn't broken. A few feet away from her, Lily was slowly stirring, looking around with interest. She saw Miley and gave a nervous little laugh. "You know I wasn't going to kill you right?"
The brunette flung herself at Lily, hugging her. Then she drew back and addressed the blonde girl. "I think I have a new idea."
"YOU FAILED ME?!" Lily received the fury filled scream with eyes closed, body trembling. She could feel Hannah gathering the electricity in her hand, ready to throw it at her.
"For-Forgive me!" The hologram shouted through quivering lips. "My host somehow managed to overpower me. I-I don't know what happened." She threw herself down at Hannah's feet sobbing. "Great One, forgive me!"
Hannah shook her head, gathered her electricity in one hand, and threw it at the Lily hologram with all her strength. The hologram, instead of absorbing it, took it as a penance for her disobedience.
"Get out! All of you! Get out! I want everyone out of this power plant! When I find Miley Stewart…" She looked around at the scattering holograms. "I want to kill her myself."
