Showdown at the Zoo

Back in San Fran Sophie's mother, Fiona Reilly was enjoying tea after another day of giving out therapy. She was wondering about the recent outbreak of the virus when she heard the door bell ring.

"Now who could that be?" Fiona asked going to the front door. When she arrived however, an explosion blasted the front door and damaged her heavily in the process. "What hit me?"

Fiona could then see the dust and smoke clearing and when it did she could see a pissed off Kira and the entire Phantom Arkeyan Civilization behind her.

"FIONA REILLY!" Kira roared as she cracked her knuckles and produced a spectral lightning orb.

"That would be me," Fiona squeaked nervously, "Now why are you here?"

"You dishonored your daughter and my surrogate niece by listening her worst enemy and her thug friends and looking out for their best interests instead of your own daughter's," Kira yelled before roaring, "NOW YOU'LL PAAAAAAYYY!"

Kira and the entire Phantom Arkeyan Civilization moved in preparing to beat Fiona to a pulp as the latter tried pleading for mercy.

"Wait please can't we talk about this like civilized beings," Fiona pleaded before Kira tossed a spectral lightning bolt, "Have Mercy!"

"Mercy?" Kira asked with a sinister sounding laugh before bellowing "YOU DESERVE NONE!"

Fiona screamed as Kira and the entire Phantom Arkeyan Civlization beat her to a pulp.

Over on Avalon Eon and Adinda were watching the scene via the Magic Mirror. This time, they were joined by Daolon and Uncle and needless to say their jaws dropped at the savage beating the Phantom Arkeyans were handing Fiona.

"Aieyyah, Phantom Arkeyan Civilization is beating Sophie's Mom to a pulp," Uncle said, "Can't we do something."

"This is nothing compaired to what Kira's done in the past to those who dishonored the Arkeyans," Eon said, "She tore them limb from limb and just before she arrived she struck down a loud mouth female bully and sent her straight to the Sanzu River."

"I wouldn't wish this upon anybody," Daolon added, "Even my magic isn't powerful enough to do that."

The sound of breaking bones and Fiona's screams of pain were ringing as the Phantom Arkeyans continued pounding the Psychologist to a pulp.

"I better go do some damage control when this is over, "Adinda sighed, "In the meantime lets check in on the Eternal Life Source."

Uncle, Daolon, and Eon all agreed to that idea as they saw how the battle for the Eternal Life Source was going.

Back at the San Diego Zoo, Ice and the Arkeyans were fighting off hordes of Shadowkhan. Shasta and the Arkeyan Queens were doing very well at first but they were starting to fade out. Terrador was on the defensive but he was used to fighting on defense as he used his opponent's strengths against them. Ice meanwhile was tossing fireballs at the Shadowkhan roasting them to bits.

"How's the flower girl holding up Rosebud?" Ice asked.

"She's almost done getting the Eternal Life Source into her staff," Rose replied blasting another Shadowkhan.

Flora meanwhile had gotten the Eternal Life Source ready and was almost done absorbing it into her staff when Hektore appeared and started firing lasers out of his eyes at her. Flora fought back by throwing onions at him.

"Seriously what were you thinking throwing onions at me," Hektore sneered, "Do I look like Tarakudo to you?!"

"Actually that wasn't to sting you that was just the distraction," Flora retorted as she finished getting the Eternal Life Source, "That was so I could get the Eternal Life Source."

The Botany Arkeyan Queen then fired a razor leaves at the Shadowkhan tearing them apart.

"Do you really think a bunch of leaves can stop us?" Kaos sneered.

"This can," Shasta snapped as she tossed some well placed fireballs at Hektore and Kaos knocking them out. "Flora crush this virus."

"Already on it," Flora said sending the antidote to the virus all over San Fran with help from Ventus' Wind powers. "Now those who were affected by the Virus should be cured soon."

"So you think," Kaos sneered as he and Hektore were back onboard the Phantom Tide, "The Virus already did what I needed it to do so you lost this match."

The Phantom Tide then sailed away with Kaos, Hektore, and the Shadowkhan leaving Ice and the Arkeyans in the dust.

"I wonder what Kaos meant when he said the Virus did its job already?" Ventus guessed.

"Who cares," Ice asked, "All I know is that its time for this evenings beatdown."

"That's right," Rita pointed out, "We've got to get back."

"And make sure Kira didn't beat somebody to a pulp," Sara said as Flora warped them back to the Mansion.

What the group didn't know was that they took an obsidian black hound with them in the process. The hound had teeth and claws sharper than obsidian stone and jaws that could crush diamonds into gravel with only a snap.
