The Tejina Chronicles: False Love
By: Kioko the Pirate
Chapter 4: Betrayal, the heart shatters!
Buildings, trees, cars, they were all blurs as Stitch sped down the streets of Kokoua town. He had to make it back to the house before that experiment managed to steal his book. Snooty and Victoria were far behind, but were still close enough to keep Stitch in sight. Stitch clenched his teeth and gave a determined growl as he tried to push himself to go faster.
'I can't believe I didn't figure this out sooner.' Thought Stitch as he skidded around a corner. 'This entire week it's seemed like Trey was distracting Lilo. How could I not see it?'
The thoughts continued to ravage Stitch's mind as he skidded around another corner. Meanwhile, in the dark forest around the Pelekai household, a small shadowy figure darted in and out of the foliage. The figure was a blur as it sped towards the home, almost completely silent; no one would know its approach. Within seconds the figure was at the edge of the backyard, eyeing up the house it quickly darted over to the side of the house. Hiding in the dark it carefully peeked around the corner at the back door.
Suddenly the door opened and an older Hawaiian girl walked out. The creature gave a startled gasp as the girl began walking towards its location. Scrambling quickly turned and began climbing up the wall as if it were a ladder. It gave a relieved sigh as it looked back down and watched the girl go back inside. After a moment the creature continued climbing up the wall, slowly crawling around to the front of the house and to a window that was wide open.
A fiendish smirk formed on the creature's mouth as it crawled in through the window. The room was dark except for the moonlight shining in through the window. It was just enough light to allow the creature to see every thing in the room. An evil smirk found its way onto the creature's mouth as it looked slowly around the room.
"This is going to be far too easy", said the creature as it walked further into the room. "Now, if I were a spell book, where would I be hidden?"
The creature began looking all through the room, opening drawers, digging through them and tossing out their contents no matter what was in the drawer. He rummaged through the closet, searching through everything that could possibly hold a book. Meanwhile downstairs, Nani was quietly stirring a cup of warm tea. This was one of those rare moments that she enjoyed, the house was quiet. The TV was off, there was no yelling going on and an over all feeling of peace filled the house.
Nani gave a sigh of relief after taking a careful sip of her tea. She set the cup down and looked over to the doorway leading to the hallway and the stairs. 'Lilo was acting very strangely when I talked to her' thought Nani. 'She didn't seem to be herself, maybe she is sick?'
Nani picked up her cup and took another sip of its contents. Setting the cup down once more she gave a heavy sigh, "Maybe I'll just go check on her?", said Nani quietly to herself as she began walking off towards the staircase.
At that moment Stitch came sliding around the corner into the driveway leading home. Without slowing down he sprinted up towards the house, Victoria and Snooty were straggling behind.
"Snooty, why don't… why don't you fly up ahead?" offered Victoria as she turned the corner huffing and puffing. "You go and catch up… with Stitch. I'll catch up with you guys momentarily."
Snooty gave a nod of agreement. "Right!" shouted the small bat before flying ahead of his partner.
As Stitch and Snooty approached the front of the house, Nani reached the top of the stairs and began walking down the hall towards her sister's room ,she might have just been lying about feeling better?' thought Nani as she approached the door. 'I'll just peek in to see if she's ok.'
Meanwhile in Lilo's room, the creature had torn apart almost everything he could find. It gave a frustrated sigh as it stood in the center of the room looking around once more. "Why can't I find it?", asked the creature quietly to itself. The creature gave a growl as it folded it's arms over it's chest. Suddenly, the creature's eyes fell upon a small book shelf on the other side of the room, that it had some how overlooked.
The creature walked over to the shelf and began pulling out books, tossing them behind itself as it went. After a moment it had pulled all the books off of the shelf, the creature once again gave a growl, "Where did that human hide it?"
The creature looked around and suddenly noticed the corner of a book sticking out from on top of the shelf. A small smirk formed on the creatures face as it climbed up the shelf and grabbed the book off of the top. The creature hopped down from the shelf and looked at the book; the creatures smirk grew wider as it looked down at the blue spell book.
"Found it", smiled the creature.
At that moment ,outside, Stitch and Snooty reached the bottom of the front steps and in a flash began running up to the front door. In a second they made it to the door, and Stitch gave the door a swift punch, causing it to fly open. The two experiments raced inside and turned into the hallway leading to the stairs. They reached the top of the stairs right as Nani began to open Lilo's door.
"Lilo, are you asleep?", whispered Nani, as she carefully opened the door and peaked in. Even though it was dark in the room she instantly noticed that the room was trashed. "Lilo, what happened in here?", asked Nani as she flung the door the rest of the way open and stepped in.
Her shouting instantly caught the attention of the creature that was still sanding in front of the small book case with the spell book in its paws. As Nani stepped into the room her eyes met with the small creatures, instantly the older Hawaiian girl let out a deafening scream.
"Ahh, what is that thing?" screamed Nani as she pointed towards the creature.
The creature gave a low growl and took a small step towards the girl. Nani gave a nervous moan and took an uneasy step backwards into the hall as the creature continued to take small steps towards her. The creature lowered itself, ready to attack the girl at any moment. But, as it was about to leap at her, Stitch and Snooty appeared in the door way. They nearly knocked Nani over as they skid into the room; the creature gives another growl and quickly turns toward the open window. Both Stitch and Snooty charge into the room as the creature runs over to the window and gracefully jumps out.
With out any hesitation the two experiments quickly follow the creature out the window. The creature hadn't gotten too far ahead of them as it was just entering the woods as Stitch landed on the ground below the window. Just as they had done a few days before the two experiments began pursuing the creature through the woods at high speed. Dodging and weaving through the obstacle course of trees and low hanging branches and despite the darkness of the forest, the two experiments managed to keep up with the swiftly moving creature.
None of them seemed to tire in the least as they ran deeper and deeper into the tropical forest. Both Snooty and Stitch had looks of pure determination on their faces as they went, determined to stop this creature, this experiment, before it got to where ever it was going.
'Where is this guy taking my book' thought Stitch as he ducked under a low branch. 'Could he have a fire waiting some where? I hope not. If I end up losing this tournament, I want it to be at Lilo's side, fighting our toughest fight.' Stitch gave a small sigh as the image of Angel and Kioko flashed in his memory. 'And I have a feeling our toughest fight will be against them, against her. But I won't let it end like this! I won't let a little thief of an experiment beat me!'
Stitch clenched his teeth and paws as he focused ahead at the experiment. "You won't win." growled Stitch.
The three experiments continued running , flying through the forest at blinding speeds. After a few minutes Snooty and Stitch started to notice that the trees were beginning to thin out and more of the starry sky was becoming visible. After another minute the experiments reached the edge of the forest, ahead of them was a rather steep and rocky cliff, beyond that was nothing but wide open beach. The experiment quickly leapt form rock to rock, heading down towards the beach. Stitch and Snooty followed and after a few seconds all three experiments were on the beach. The chase continued, down the beach, clouds of sand kicking up as they went.
Slowly, Stitch started to catch up with the experiment, growing closer and closer with each step. The experiment glanced back over its shoulder and sneered as Stitch grew closer. The three experiments rounded a corner, they were now on a public beach, and luckily no one is on the beach after dark. So, Stitch thought, suddenly the tiny blue experiment notices two dark figures moving up the beach towards them. Their silhouettes outlined by the moonlight reflecting off of the ocean. Stitch squinted his eyes, peering past the experiment ahead of him in order to more clearly see who it was.
After a moment his eyes shot open and his jaw dropped slightly, as he saw the two figures were of a young Hawaiian girl and a taller blonde haired boy. The boy was wearing a leather jacket and the girl had a sparkling necklace around her neck. "Lilo, Trey!" shouted Stitch with utter shock and amazement in his voice.
"Lilo and Trey?" asked Snooty as he flew just above Stitch. "They should still be at the restaurant, what are they doing here?"
Stitch gave a small growl. "Isn't it obvious? Trey is that experiments partner! He's going to hand my book over to Trey!"
"But, he wouldn't do that with Lilo right next to him would he?"
"I don't know, but I'm going to make sure we don't find out."
With that Stitch accelerated as much as he could, getting within just a foot of the experiment. Without warning Stitch leapt forward towards the experiment, snarling as he flew through the air. But as Stitch's paws neared the experiments back, the experiment noticed the movement from the corner of its eye and quickly leapt aside out of Stitch's way. Stitch gave a small gasp as he dove head first into the sand, sliding through it for a few feet before coming to a rest. The blue experiment quickly looked up from the sand, a small pile of it on his nose.
Stitch gave a growl and quickly scampered to his feet as the experiment got further ahead of them. Stitch accelerated after the experiment as fast as he could, but it was no use, the experiment was only a few yards from Lilo and Trey. Neither Trey nor Lilo seemed to have noticed the experiments running towards them yet. Lilo was holding onto Trey's arm with her eyes closed as she rested her cheek on the boy's shoulder. She was enjoying the peaceful stroll they were having, but the peace was soon broken as a strange voice called out.
"Trey!" shouted the experiment as it ran up to him.
Lilo's eyes opened as the experiment came into clear view, her eyes widened and a small gasp escaped her. 'An experiment?', thought Lilo as she watched Trey kneel down to the experiment.
"Did you get it?" asked Trey with an evil smirk.
The same smirk appeared on the experiments face. "Did you think I would fail?" replied the experiment as it handed the book over to Trey.
Lilo looked on with an extremely confused look on her face. She hadn't clearly seen what the experiment had handed to Trey, all she knew was it looked like a book. Trey's smirk grew as he stood up; his gaze remained focused straight ahead as Lilo continued staring at him.
"Trey… you… you have an experiment?" asked Lilo with an obvious tone of shock in her voice.
Trey just gave a small laugh. "I sure do, Lilo, this is Melty." introduced Trey as he pointed down at the dragon like experiment.
Lilo's confused expression grew as the experiment just gave her an evil look. "Well, wha… what did he just give you?" asked Lilo as she took a hold of his arm.
Without warning Trey yanked his arm away and slammed his open palm into Lilo's shoulder, knocking her to the ground. Lilo gave a startled gasp as she landed on her butt in the sand; she looked up at Trey with even more shock and surprise than before.
"What, what was that for?" asked Lilo forcefully.
An evil chuckle escaped Trey as he looked over at the girl. "What did Melty give me you ask? He just gave me something that means that I don't have to be a nice guy to you any more." With that Trey lifted the unknown book up into the air, the moonlight revealing its blue cover.
Lilo's eyes shot open as she instantly recognized the book. "Stitch's Spell book! What… how did you get it?"
Trey gave another amused laugh as he held the blue book up next to his face. "While I was winning you over with my charm and expensive gifts, Melty here was scoping out your house. Finding out everything he needed to know to break in and steal your book."
Melty gave a small chuckle as he walked up next to Trey. "You should really keep your windows closed and locked when you go out." mocked the experiment.
Lilo slowly got up to her hands and knees, her look of shock and surprise slowly turning to anger. Suddenly her thoughts went else where, to the blue spell books experiment. "What about…?"
Lilo was about to ask about what had happened to Stitch, knowing certainly that he would have been at home with the book. But before she could say his name, the blue experiments voice rang out form the darkness.
"Lilo!", shouted Stitch as he came into view, followed shortly by Snooty.
"Stitch!" replied Lilo happily.
Trey gave an irritated growl as he looked at the two experiments. "You let them follow you?" asked Trey as he angrily looked down at Melty.
"Don't use that tone with me, human. It doesn't matter if they followed me or not now does it? We have 626's book, there's nothing they can do."
Trey's angry expression faded into a calm look. "You're right, besides, it's a nice gesture if we let them say goodbye before we burn the book."
Both Lilo and Stitch give low growls. "I won't let you even scratch that book!" shouted Lilo as she jumped up and made a grab for the book.
But as her hand neared it, Trey swiftly pulled it away. The boy quickly reaches into his jacket and pulls out a small red lighter. "I wouldn't do anything stupid now Lilo, or else I'll burn the book right now and you won't have a chance to say good bye to your little experiment" threatened Trey as he held the lighter just below the book.
Lilo, Stitch and Snooty growl this time, none of them were moving an inch. "You're book will be the one burned tonight", blurted Stitch angrily.
Trey and Melty both look over at the blue experiment with smiles on their faces. "You expect us to be afraid of you, I mean us against two experiments that don't have their spell books and a young Hawaiian girl? You must be joking?" said Trey in an amused tone.
"You should be afraid, because now you've got us to deal with!" shouted a young female voice from the darkness.
Every one looked over as Victoria slid through the sand behind Stitch and Snooty, coming to a stop behind her respective experiment. Her bluish-green spell book open in her hands and ready for action. Lilo suddenly noticed that both Trey and Melty were focused on Victoria; she took the moment and leapt for the book once more. Trey had no time to react before the young Hawaiian girl slapped the blue spell book out of his hands and sent it flying towards Stitch, Victoria and Snooty. Stitch quickly leaped forward and caught the book in mid-air, at the same time Lilo quickly scrambled over to her experiment, partner and friend's side.
Stitch immediately handed her the blue book and in a flash the young girl had it open and ready. Trey and Melty were left with blank expressions on their faces as the two pairs of partners got into a battle stance. After a moment the two broke into smiles.
"Well, this is quite a surprise. Two against one… I like those odds" smiled Trey as he put the lighter back in his pocket and reached again up into his jacket. A moment later the boy pulls out a tannish-orange colored spell book.
Both Lilo and Victoria clenched their teeth as their two books began to glow. "You're making a huge mistake taking us both on at once." blurted Lilo.
"No, it's you who is making a huge mistake, Lilo. Taking us on at all. This would have been so much easier if you had just let me burn your book," smiled Trey as he opened his book.
A moment later the spell book began to glow with an orange-ish glow. But suddenly Melty stepped forward and raised his paw towards Trey. "Hold on Trey, there's no need to waste energy now. I can take these two with out spells, so just stand off to the side for now", ordered Melty.
Trey raised his eyebrow as he looked down at the experiment, "What ever you say", said Trey as he closed the book, the glow fading away.
"Bad move there, little guy", said Lilo, as she placed her finger on the glowing page of the spell book. "Punchito!"
A smirk formed on Stitch's face as his right fist became surrounded in a bluish energy. In the next instant Stitch launched towards Melty; the dragon like experiment didn't even move as his opponent sped towards him. Stitch raised his glowing paw as he neared Melty, but right as Stitch threw his attack, Melty side stepped the attack and then whipped around. With one swift motion Melty hit Stitch's legs with his tail, tripping the blue experiment and sending him falling towards the ground.
Stitch gave startled gasp as his glowing fist slammed into the sand, creating a large explosion that didn't even faze Melty. Victoria clenched her teeth and stepped forward; Snooty flew in front of her. "Try this on for size, Gikair!", shouted Victoria.
Snooty instantly formed the swirling mass of green energy in front of his open mouth and sent it blasting towards Melty. The experiment gave another smirk as it raised a paw towards the blast; a second later the orb of energy slammed into Melty's waiting paw, stopping instantly. Melty's smirk grew as the blast strained against his paw, suddenly the orb faded away leaving Melty's paw smoking slightly.
"Ouch, that actually hurt a little", mocked Melty, as he lowered his paw.
Suddenly a movement behind him caught Melty's attention. Stitch had gotten to his feet and quickly charged back towards the dragon. Even before Lilo could cast a spell Stitch threw his fist towards Melty, the dragon once again side stepped the attack, causing Stitch to stumble foreword. Without missing a beat, Stitch recovered and once again turned and threw yet another punch towards Melty. The tiny red experiment leaned back slightly, easily avoiding Stitch's attack. In a flash Melty countered with his own attack, the dragon like experiment stepped to Stitch's side and whipped around. The experiment's sharp, arrowhead shaped tail slammed into Stitch's cheek, knocking the blue experiment through the air. Stitch sailed threw the air for a few feet before slamming into the sand, a deep gash ran across Stitch's cheek were Melty's tail had hit.
Both Lilo and Victoria give gasps of disbelief as they watched Stitch slam into the sand. "Stitch!", shouted Lilo, with a concerned tone.
Stitch quickly started to get back to his feet, groaning painfully as he pushed himself up. He could feel blood running from the wound on his cheek as he raised his head slowly. He clenched his teeth as he heard Melty chuckling behind him.
"This is a bit of a disappointment, I expected Jumba's great experiment 626 to be a lot tougher. I mean I made you bleed with one attack, not very impressive." taunted Melty as he watched Stitch slowly rise to his feet. "Of course, what can I expect from an experiment that's partnered with a pathetic human female?"
Stitch gave a deep growl as he turned and faced Melty. "Hey, have you forgotten that we're here?", shouted Snooty as he glared down at Melty angrily.
Melty calmly looked up at the bat with an arrogant smirk. "Please, you're no threat to me. That sad excuse for a spell won't even faze me."
Snooty's eyes narrowed angrily. "Nice one, Melty!" shouted Trey as he gave a thumbs up.
Melty glared over at his partner. "Shut up, Trey. Stay focused.", growled Melty.
Trey raised his hands up in front of himself submissively, "Ok, ok, no need to be rude."
Melty just gave a huff and rolled his eyes. "You're not going to win this fight", blurted Stitch. Melty quickly looked back over towards his opponent with the same arrogant smile as before. "We're not going to let you win. Your partner used Lilo, and I'm going to make you pay for it", growled Stitch, as he wiped away the blood that was running down his cheek.
Melty gave a small laugh as he folded his arms over his chest. "Is that so? Well then why don't you go ahead and try to take me down?"
"We will!" shouted Lilo. The blue book once again started to glow. "Punchito!"
With that Stitch raised his paw, clenched in a fist, and charged toward the red dragon. The glow from Stitch's paw illuminated the area as he neared his target. But as Stitch grew closer Melty glanced away from his attacker and looked towards his partner. A sinister grin snuck across Trey's face as he once again opened the tannish-orange spell book. The book began to glow with a light orange glow, the glow caught the attention of Lilo and Victoria but neither of them could stop Stitch as he approached Melty.
Stitch was only a foot or two away from Melty when suddenly he heard Trey shout, "Poren!"
Melty suddenly opened his mouth, a green glow quickly began to shine from his open jaw. Stitch gave a quick gasp as a blast of green plasma blasted from Melty's mouth. At almost point blank range the spell hit Stitch square in the chest in an instant. The green blast of plasma detonates immediately after hitting Stitch, causing a large explosion that blows away from Melty. Lilo gave another gasp as Stitch flew out of the cloud left from the attack and once again slammed into the sand.
Victoria instantly stepped forward, her spell book glowing , "Gikair!"
Melty quickly faces toward Snooty as the same swirling green orb as before formed in front of the bat. A moment later the green orb blasted away from Snooty and toward Melty. Melty got another smirk on his face as Trey called out the spell again. In an instant the swirling green energy from Snooty and the green plasma from Melty, collided in mid air. The two spells strained against each other for a moment but Melty's blast suddenly ripped through Snooty's spell. Melty's spell continued onwards, slamming in Snooty with explosive force.
Victoria gave a gasp this time as Snooty fell from the sky and landed on his back in the sand. Lilo clenched her teeth with a growl as Victoria ran over to her friend, while Trey and Melty laughed with amusement. "You two are monsters!", shouted Lilo angrily.
Both Trey and Melty looked over at the girl, twisted smirks on each of their faces. "Monsters?", asked Trey as he flipped a few pages in his spell book, "My dear Lilo, you haven't seen anything yet."
"And neither have you!" shouted a weak voice from behind the two.
Stitch was back on his feet and was charging head long towards Melty. The dragon gave a sigh as he watched Stitch raise his fist yet again. Within seconds Stitch was within striking distance of Melty, the blue experiment threw one hard punch towards Melty's face. But in the blink of an eye Melty raised his paw and caught Stitch's fist. Stitch gave a gasp as Melty reached forward with his other paw and grabbed Stitch's arm. With no trouble at all Melty lifted Stitch into the air and threw him back towards Lilo. Stitch landed on his back just a few feet to Lilo's left side, again sliding through the sand a short distance.
Melty gave a small laugh as he glanced back over at Trey, "Do it, Trey." commanded the experiment as he watched Lilo run over to Stitch.
"You got it.", replied Trey, as his book began to glow. "Dareido!"
Both Lilo and Victoria quickly look over towards Melty as he once again opened his mouth. A moment later strange bluish gray ooze begins to fill Melty's mouth; his mouth was completely full of the goo when it suddenly blasted towards Lilo. Lilo gave a startled gasp as the goo flew towards her, breaking into smaller pieces at it got closer. The blobs of goo slammed into Lilo, hitting her in the wrists, waist and ankles. The force of the impact knocked Lilo onto her back, as she hit the ground the goo hardened, binding Lilo to the sandy ground.
"Lilo!" cried Victoria as she ran towards her friend. But as she got within a few feet of her friend another series of goo blobs hit her, in all the same places that it had Lilo. Before Victoria knew what happened she was pinned to the ground just a few feet from Lilo. "Eww, this is gross," moaned Victoria.
Trey gave a small laugh as he walked over behind Melty. "That goo should hold you for a good long while. So don't even try struggling it won't work."
"What about the experiments?" asked Melty as he looked towards Snooty and Stitch, both were starting to get up.
"You're right, they could still be a problem", Trey's book once again began to glow. "Dareido!"
At that moment both Stitch and Snooty were slowly looking over towards Melty and Trey. But as they got all the way up two blobs of goo hit them head on. The impact knocked them both onto their backs, the first blob almost completely covered Snooty leaving only his wings and feet sticking out. The second blob hits Stitch in the chest, binding his arms to his side and pinning him to the ground. Stitch gave a growl as he tried to break free but after a moment it became clear it wasn't going to work.
Both Trey and Melty gave evil laughs as they looked down at their four trapped opponents. "You see what happens when you try and do things the hard way Lilo?" asked Trey as he looked over at the girl. "If you had just let me take the book, you wouldn't be in this little situation. But it doesn't matter now, I have you right where I want you", finished Trey with a sick smile.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Lilo with a sneer.
Trey's smile grew. "I mean that now, Melty will merely collect your books and I get to sneak a little peak at you two."
Both Lilo and Victoria cringed at the disgusting tone that was in Trey's voice. But both of them quickly looked around for their books as Melty began making his way towards the two of them. Lilo looked around and quickly noticed her blue book lying closed and just out of her reach. Victoria quickly noticed her book as well, it was lying open just a few inches form her hand. The red head quickly looked back over towards Melty and Trey, the experiment was walking towards her while Trey was making his way slowly towards Lilo.
Victoria clenched her teeth as she looked over at her book. Her gooey bindings were stiff and were not going to be budged easily, but the red head still strained against them. Leaning herself towards her book she tried to move her hand a little closer so that she could get a hold of the book. Slowly she began moving her hand closer to the book, her fingers digging in the sand trying to pull her hand along.
Meanwhile Trey was just feet from Lilo, a perverted, disgusting smile on his face. "You knew it was eventually going to end up like this, but it didn't have to be in such a rough way", smiled Trey as he came to a stop at Lilo's feet.
"I can't believe I ever saw anything in you", growled Lilo through clenched teeth. "I should have known that a guy like you was too good to be true", Lilo rolled her head to the side to look over at Stitch, who was looking back at her with concerned and worried eyes. "I'm sorry Stitch, I should have listened to you."
"It's ok, Lilo. Don't worry; we'll get out of this", said Stitch solemnly.
Trey gave a short laugh as he looked over at the blue experiment. "I wouldn't count on it, especially since I'm going to burn your book right here in front of Lilo. And Lilo won't be leaving here with out some wear and tear either."
Lilo cringed once more as she looked up at Trey's perverted smile and hunger filled eyes, meanwhile, Melty was now only a few feet from Victoria's book, but Victoria's fingers were only less then half an inch away from the book. Melty gave a small chuckle as he watched the girl strain for her book.
"Give it up human, you're not going to reach that book", smiled Melty.
At that moment an evil little smirk formed on Victoria's face. The girl slowly looked up at the experiment out of the corner of her eye. "That's what you think", Melty suddenly gave a gasp as he watched Victoria place her fingers on the very edge of the book. The spell book instantly began to glow with a brighter then usual light. Melty quickly dove for the book, trying to get to it before the girl could call a spell, but it was too late. "Gikair!"
Melty instantly stopped where he was and looked over towards where the bat was trapped. A panicked look swept over the dragon experiment's face as a green light began shining through the goo. A second later the goo exploded into tiny pieces as a blast of green energy shot upwards. The blast instantly catches Trey's attention, the boy's eyes widen as he watched Snooty fly up into the air. The bat gives a howl as he looks down at Melty, but a small smile quickly appears on the bats face.
"I remember that spell of yours", blurted Snooty.
"What are you talking about?" asked Melty defensively.
"I remember seeing Jumba's designs for that spell of yours, and it has one big flaw", grinned Snooty.
Melty's eyes widened as he watched Snooty fly up into the air for a few feet, suddenly the bat dove down towards Melty. The experiment had no time to react before Snooty's head slammed into his gut. Trey's jaw dropped as Melty is knocked through the air, landing on his back and sliding right up to Trey's feet. At the same time the goo that was still binding every one except Snooty began to fade in color. After another moment it began to crack and one more moment later it crumbled away into dust. Trey gave a startled gasp as Victoria, Lilo and Stitch sprung to their feet.
In a flash Lilo picked up the blue book and opened it. "You've gone too far, Trey! Now you lose!" shouted Lilo as the blue book began to glow.
"Hold on, Lilo!" shouted Victoria, who's book was still shining extremely bright. "Let me and Snooty take care of this guy. You've had plenty of battles before, let us have this one."
Lilo looked over at Trey, who was beginning to shake. "Sure, you guys go right ahead", said Lilo as the blue books glow faded away. "Come on Stitch, lets watch", said Lilo as Stitch stepped up beside her.
"Right", replied Stitch.
"Do you really think you two weaklings can win?" asked Melty as he painfully got up to his feet.
"Do you think you can just get away with what you've done? I don't think so", growled Victoria. "Gikair!"
Both Trey and Melty gasped as they leapt aside, narrowly avoiding the swirling green blast that slammed into the ground with a larger than usual explosion. In a flash Trey opened the tan spell book which instantly began to glow.
"Ganzu Poren!" shouted Trey.
Melty quickly opened his mouth and in an instant a series of green plasma shots blast out of his mouth towards Victoria. With out saying a word Snooty flew in front of his partner as Victoria flipped a page in her book. A smirk formed on the girls face as she placed her finger on the page.
"Raja Gatsu!" shouted Victoria.
Snooty quickly opened his mouth and a second later the familiar green twister of energy shot out towards Melty's on coming spell. Snooty's massive attack parted the sand as it went; the two spells met halfway between the two partners. Melty's spell seemed like nothing as it slammed into the swirling mass of energy and disappeared. Trey and Melty had little time to react before the swirling green twister slammed into them with devastating force. An explosion of sand sent Trey and Melty flying through the air for a couple yards before sliding to a stop in the sand.
"Had enough yet?" asked Victoria as the two painfully get to their feet.
Trey's clothes were now shredded and Melty had numerous scratches on him. The tan spell book didn't have a single scratch on it as Trey opened it. "Enough? I don't think so", growled Trey as their book began to glow. "Gou Poren!"
Melty once again opened his mouth but this time instead of the plasma forming in his mouth, the energy began forming just outside of his mouth. After a few seconds a green orb was forming, it grew larger and larger with each passing second. Finally it got to be larger then Melty himself, the massive orb blowing the sand out from underneath it. Trey's mouth formed a smirk as he glared over at Victoria and Snooty.
"Take this!" shouted the blonde haired boy.
At that moment the large orb of energy blasted towards Snooty and Victoria, digging a trench in the sand as it went. The attack was massive but not the fastest spell around, Victoria and Snooty had plenty of time to run out of the path of the attack. The two came to a stop a few yards from where the spell would hit, and a second later it did. The massive orb slammed into the ground with crushing force, creating a massive explosion that rocked the ground and sent large globs of sand flying everywhere. But sand wasn't the only thing thrown, multiple shots of plasma blasted out from the explosion in every direction.
The green energy fell everywhere, creating smaller blasts on impact. Victoria and Snooty narrowly avoided a few shots by leaping back and forth. Lilo and Stitch also had to weave in and out of the raining plasma shots. The explosions lasted only a few seconds but afterwards the entire section of beach was covered by a thick cloud of sand. The only pair visible was Trey and Melty, who were facing the cloud with joyous looks upon their faces. The area was silent except for the sound of the sand landing back on the ground.
"I… I think we got them with that one", blurted Trey through tired breathes.
"Don't get cocky; they still might be in there. The Gou Poren spell isn't exactly the most accurate spell around", explained Melty as he studied the settling cloud carefully.
Suddenly the dragon experiments eyes widen as a bright bluish green light shot through the cloud of sand. Trey gave a nervous step back as the cloud completely settled, revealing both teams still standing and for the most part unscathed. But what caught Trey's and Melty's eyes the most was Victoria's book. The bluish-green book was shining brighter then ever, its light almost pure white. Of course the bright light was unexpected by Victoria as well. Her eyes scanned the page of the spell book, suddenly , she notices that the letters below the Raja Gatsu spell were glowing. The new spell instantly appears in the red heads mind as she looks up from the book and towards Trey and Melty.
"I'd say it's about time we end this little battle, wouldn't you say, Snooty?" asked Victoria as a fiendish smirk found its way across her face.
"I'd say it is, Victoria", replied Snooty with the same smirk on his face.
"You two have caused enough trouble around here!" shouted Victoria, as she glared across at her opponents. "You trick my best friend into thinking your some awesome guy when you're really just a perverted, low life piece of scum. I can't let you get away with this."
"Now, now, let's think this over shall we? We don't need to end this thing violently you know. I could just buy you a nice necklace like the one I gave Lilo and then I'll just leave", pleaded Trey as he raised his hands defensively. "What do you say?"
Victoria looked away as if she were thinking about it and then looked back towards Trey. "Uh… no." said Victoria flatly. "We're going to make sure you never do what you did to Lilo or all those other girls ever again to anyone else. Now, the third spell! Oruga Gotsu!"
Snooty's face emptied of emotion as his body began to glow with the same light as the book. In a flash the purple bat shot up into the sky, coming to a hover 200 feet above the ground. The glow around his body grew until he was like a shining green star.
On the ground Trey and Melty were looking on with fear filled eyes.
"I think it's time we got out of here", exclaimed Trey as he slowly turned and began quickly walking away.
"For once I agree", replied Melty following quickly behind his partner.
But as they began to quickly run for the street, four swirling, tornado like columns of green energy shot down from Snooty's glowing body. In an instant the four masses of energy slammed into the ground around Trey and Snooty. The four green twisters began rotating around the team, kicking up dust and sand. Suddenly the wind in between the four twisters increased, lifting Melty and Trey into the air. The two begin to swirl around in an invisible cyclone in between the four columns of energy.
"Well… this … isn't… too… bad!" shouted Trey as he spiraled around Melty.
Suddenly the four twisters began to glow just like the book. In the next instant crescent shaped blades of white energy began shooting out from the twisters in between them. Trey's and Melty's eyes widen as the blades slice past them. They both let out painful screams as the blades slice through Trey's jacket and Melty's skin. The barrage of blades last a full minute before both the blades and the twisters disappear into thin air. Trey and Melty both fall to the ground, unconscious, dazed and scratched up. Melty's book soon falls as well, in four pieces and burning in a green flame.
Victoria gives a relieved sigh as the bright light fades from her book. "It's finally over", said Victoria happily.
"We did it, Victoria! And we unlocked a new spell!" shouted Snooty as he flew down to Victoria's shoulder, the glow form his body gone as well.
"We sure did", smiled Victoria.
"That was awesome, that spell was amazing!" shouted Lilo as she ran over to her friend with Stitch following close behind.
"Yeah, why do you get all the cool spells?" asked Stitch with a jealous tone.
Lilo, Victoria and Snooty all gave a small laugh as Stitch gives a small pout. "I'm just glad that this ordeal is finally over", sighed Victoria.
"Yeah, but now what are we going to do with Trey?', asked Lilo as she looked over at the unconscious boy.
"I don't think we have to worry about that", smiled Victoria as the sound of police sirens began filling the air.
A while later several police cars were parked along the beach, Trey was being hauled away in hand cuffs and four scorch marks on the sand showed all that was left of Melty's book. The two girls and their experiments were casually making their way up the beach and towards home.
"I really owe you guys an apology." Blurted Lilo as she hung her head low. "I should have listened to you when you were telling me that Trey wasn't right."
"It's ok, Lilo. I know that sometimes a good looking guy can just cloud your thoughts at times", said Victoria with a smile.
"And Stitch, I'm sorry about ignoring you all this week. I promise I'll make it up to you", said Lilo as she looked down at her friend.
The blue experiment just smiled. "It's alright, Lilo. Just as long as we get to training tomorrow, I'll forgive you."
Lilo smiled. "Let me guess, just because Snooty got a new spell you want to train and get a new one yourself? Right?"
"Yeah! I want a spell as cool as Snooty's new one!" whined Stitch.
Lilo, Victoria and Snooty all shared another laugh as they neared the street. But as they passed the police car which Trey was being loaded into by two officers Lilo came to a stop.
"Hold on a minute officers", blurted Lilo as she walked towards Trey. The boy was still dazed and had a glassy look in his eye. "You can have this back", snapped Lilo as she ripped the necklace that Trey had given her off of her neck and threw it at the boys face.
Lilo gave a triumphant 'huff' as she turned and continued walking off towards home, her friends at her sides.
Well that's the end of this story. Sorry if the ending is a bit rushed but I'm trying to get this in before I leave tomorrow for vacation. Well, that's about it. Please review.
