Summary: The Lotus' plans to enjoy Halloween are put on hold when strange mystic monsters threaten to transform the city.
On a Halloween night, Zack and Yami walked on the streets. They looked around to see New York kids running around the streets for trick-or-treating in their own costumes. Zack wore a black coat that has zippers on the sleeves, grey jeans, black fingerless gloves, and black military-styled boots while Yami wore a black sleeveless qipao dress tied in a navy blue obi along with dark grey stockings and black combat shoes.
"Oh man. Halloween is the best holiday ever, especially for mystics around the world." Zack said with an excited smile.
"Yeah, it would be nice to take a break from aliens and mutants for a change." Yami agreed. "But since I'm new in this holiday, how do we celebrate Halloween work exactly?"
"Watch and learn." Zack said proudly.
Zack walked on the apartment door nearby and knocked on the door. Yami stood next to Zack as she watched a young woman open the door in a witch costume.
"Yo yo yo! Trick or treat, dog!" Zack grinned as he held up his jack-o-lantern basket.
"Whoa, wicked costumes." The young woman said with a smile. "You two got creative style."
The young women poured candy into Zack and Yami's jack-o-lantern baskets before closing the door.
"Oh, so we celebrate Halloween by getting candy?" Yami asked.
"Exactly." Zack said with a nod. "Now, let's go meet the girls. I heard they are the queens of Halloween from last year."
Unknown to Zack and Yami, a mysterious cloaked figure was standing on top of the building rooftop ledge while watching them and the citizens with narrow eyes.
Zack and Yami sprang up high to land on the rooftop ground until they heard an alerting scream that made them look down to see a mysterious fog appearing out of nowhere.
"Did you hear that?" Yami asked.
"Something's not right here." Zack replied in a serious tone.
Zack and Yami's eyes widened when they quickly turned around to see a mystic werewolf approaching behind them. He was tall and physically fit with caramel-colored fur, spiky brown hair, and golden eyes. He only wore a pair of black ripped pants and has a glowing yellow tattoo on the right side of his neck.
"Impossible!" Zack exclaimed. "I thought mystic werewolves didn't exist anymore!"
"Mystic werewolves?" Yami asked with a raised eyebrow.
"They were once peaceful mystics in the Middle Ages where humans view them as wizards and wizards." Zack explained. "But they got bitten by a vicious werewolf that transformed them into werewolves with their own magic abilities."
The mystic werewolf sprinted forward and extended his white energy-radiated claws to strike Yami, who quickly channeled her magnetic energies into the ground and released a series of violet powerful energy columns that knocked the mystic werewolf away from her with great force. Zack slowly generated a strong green electric shock and released ecto-energy in the form of electric energy that knocked out the mystic werewolf to the ground.
Zack and Yami then heard loud screaming, making them look over the rooftop ledge to see many people running from more mystic werewolves that were chasing them.
Suddenly, a jagged pillar of ice jutted up from the rooftop ledge that made Yami and Zack back away. They turned around to see the mysterious figure levitating herself in the air that performed the attack.
Before Zack and Yami could make a move with their powers, the mysterious cloaked figure swiftly soared down and stood behind Yami with supernatural speed. Yami didn't have time to react when the mysterious cloaked figure bit its fangs into her neck, causing Yami to scream in pain.
"Yami!" Zack shouted.
In the Crete Fortress, the entire place was decorated with Halloween decorations. Ella was launching twenty creepy glowing jack-o'-lanterns into the ceiling with a smile on her face while Donna and Ellie were staring at the floating jack-o'-lanterns with excitement as Lee walked in the living room with four colored costumes in her arms.
"Alright, girls!" Lee said with a smile. "I've finally finished!"
"Finished what?" Ellie asked.
"Our costumes." Lee replied with an exciting smile. "Took me two hours to think of one, but it was worth it."
"Well, I hope I pick out the best location for my latest invention to get its spook on." Donna said.
"Oh, what is it?" Ellie asked excitingly.
Donna snapped her fingers and summoned a large dark orange pumpkin machine inside the living room with her magic. It has a wide, crooked mouth with thin white lips and teeth. It has large glowing red eyes. It also has two pale green tentacles on the sides of its body that are tipped with pale yellow flowers.
"Whoa! Now, that's awesome!" Ella cried in excitement. "This is gonna be one night New York will never forget!"
"Aww, it's so cute!" Ellie beamed as she walked close to the pumpkin machine.
The pumpkin machine picked up Ellie with its tentacles and squeezed her into a happy hug, making the orange mystic kunoichi giggle with a smile.
Donna's L-Phone started ringing in her waist belt and she took it out to answer the call.
"Hey Zack! What's sup?" Donna greeted.
"Donna! Yami's turned into a mystic vampire and now she's hunting me!" Zack shouted from the phone.
Donna looked at the screen to watch Zack flying in the air. Lee, Ella, and Ellie joined Donna with wide, shocking eyes.
"There are monsters all over the city!" April argues. "Come quick right...!"
Then suddenly, Zack got suddenly tackled by Yami that ended the video call.
"Zack!" Donna cried in shock.
Outside, Zack was firing several powerful green blasts of ecto-energy at Yami while flying high above the buildings. But Yami swiftly dodged the blasts and started channeling flames made of pure psychic energy around herself in the shape of a giant Chinese dragon to fire it forward that heavily burned Zack on impact. Zack landed on the rooftop ground and got back up to see Yami right in front of him, causing him to back away cautiously.
"Come on, Yami! Please snap out of it!" Zack begged.
"Aww, you're so cute when you beg." Yami said with a mocking smile.
Yami sprinted straight towards Zack with her fangs wide open to bite him.
But Donna twirled her index finger in a circle and pointed her magic to trap Yami inside a transparent purple force field that stopped her from biting Zack as Lee, Ellie, and Ella rushed on either side of Zack.
"Zack, are you okay?" Ellie asked.
"I'm okay." Zack replied with a nod.
Yami radiated streams of psionic electrical energy around herself to destroy Donna's force field.
"She broke the force field!" Ella gasped.
"I got this!" Ellie cried. She started waving her hand back and forth with a grabbing shape. "I only know one thing all vampires hate the most!"
Ellie pointed her magic to unleash an intense orange light of magic energy that blinded Yami's eyes, causing the mystic vampire to cover her eyes with her hands.
"That burns!" Yami screamed in pain. "I can't see!"
"Get her!" Donna shouted.
Lee waved her hand back and Ella twisted her hand into a fist as they pointed their own magic to wrap Yami tightly with blue and red chains.
"This is insane. Yami is really a vampire." Ella said in shock.
"Not just her. The entire city as well." Zack explained. "Both mystic vampires and mystic werewolves!"
"Whoa! What?" Donna exclaimed. "I thought they no longer existed. I think I could find a cure for Yami back to my lab."
Lee sensed a dark aura moving fast from behind Zack.
"Zack, look out!" Lee cried.
Zack turned around to see a male mystic vampire flying out of nowhere behind him, but the mystic vampire quickly dove down to bite Zack on the neck.
"Zack!" Donna, Ella, Lee, and Ellie screamed.
Zack fired a green beam of ectoplasmic energy at the mystic vampire that send him flying off the building. Lee, Donna, Ella, and Ellie moved close to Zack as they noticed that he has no bite marks on his neck.
"O. M. G!" Ellie, Lee, and Ella gasped in surprise.
"Zack, you're not bitten." Donna said with wide eyes.
Before Zack could respond, a large group of mystic werewolves and mystic vampires started circling around the heroes.
"Zack...girls..." Yami said weakly.
"Fight it, Yami. Focus and concentrate." Zack said with a worried look.
The Lotus Ninjas and Zack summoned their magic in offensive stances as they were prepared for a fight.
Suddenly, a white diamond-shaped acrylic mirror appeared above the heroes that had caught their attention. Lee, Donna, Ella, Ellie, and Zack looked up to see a familiar time mystic levitating out of the portal.
"Hang on, everyone!" Jikan shouted.
Jikan lifted his Temporal Staff to levitate the heroes up in the air and zoomed away from the mystic vampires and the mystic werewolves in fast speed. He then levitated the heroes safely onto the building rooftop that has a billboard behind them.
"Thanks, Jikan." Lee said.
"No problem. I was glad you're all okay." Jikan said.
"Well, except for one." Donna pointed out as she pointed her thumb at the chained Yami.
"Yeah, she got turned into a mystic blood sucker!" Ella said.
"Uh, guys, it's not just her!" Lee exclaimed as she was looking down at the fog. "Take a look at this!"
Ella, Donna, Ellie, and Zack gathered around behind Lee to see citizens running away in fear from mystic werewolves and mystic vampires through the fog. But they also saw some vampires and werewolves without any glowing markings on the necks.
"Seriously, what the heck is going on?" Zack asked.
"It's Saskia McTavish." Jikan answered. "She is the one behind all of this."
"But I thought we got rid of her." Ellie said.
"True, but she somehow escaped." Jikan added. "When Lord Simultaneous wanted me to check up on Saskia, she broke free from the time bubble that I imprison her. She stole my emergency back-up time jumper. All Time Masters have one in case we get stuck in the past. I was able to track her back in this time period, but I was too late."
"And where did she get all these mystical monsters?" Lee questioned.
"She must have recruited them back through time if she plans to rule the world." Jikan responded.
"Well, we gonna find a way to stop this nightmare madness somehow." Ella said with a sigh.
"What about Yami?" Donna asked in worry.
"Don't worry...about me." Yami said weakly as she was struggling to resist her mystic vampire form. "I just...need something...to help...me resist...this form."
"I'm on it." Ella said. She held out her hands to concentrate on her magic in front of Yami. "Taisei."
At her words, Ella created two red magical energy cuffs around Yami's wrists.
"That spell should help you suppress your thirst for blood." Ella said. "The cuffs are also unbreakable."
"Thank you, Ella." Yami said with a nod.
"Now, if my plan succeeds, your friend and everyone else will return to normal as if this was a blurry dream." Jikan explained.
"Ha, I should have known."
Jikan, Zack, Ellie, Donna, Ella, Yami, and Lee quickly turned around to see Saskia standing on top of the billboard.
"I'm flattered you found me, Jikan. But you're obviously too late." Saskia said as she was holding the time jumper in her hand. "This entire city will soon become my slaves for the future of monsters!"
"Yeah, not gonna happen!" Lee declared.
Lee, Ella, Donna, and Ellie summoned their magic as they sprang up high above Saskia to strike, but Saskia shot out a sea green bubble to trap the Lotus Ninjas inside. Before Zack and Yami can help the Lotus Ninjas, Saskia formed a sea green bubble to trap them with one hand.
"Thanks for finding the Lotus and their new allies." Saskia said with a dark smile. She snapped her fingers and two sea green bubbles slammed together with moderate damage that sent the Lotus Ninjas, Zack, and Yami back onto the rooftop ground. "Time for me to assure my future by destroying the Lotus' existence!"
"Not as long as I'm around!" Jikan cried.
Jikan held up the Temporal Staff in his hands and summoned a time portal above him. The Lotus Ninjas, Zack, and Yami got pulled into the time portal.
"I'll get you for this, Jikan!" Saskia shouted. "And don't you forget it!"
The Lotus Ninjas, Zack, and Yami screamed as they whirled through the portal and finally landed roughly on the ground into a different time period while Jikan floated himself down on the ground safely.
"Whoa, where are we?" Lee asked.
Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, and Yami got up from the ground as they looked around the huge desert with Egyptian ruins in shock. The desert itself also has large, rolling sand dunes and ruins of a stone structure that was surrounding a huge pyramid.
"Oh. My. God!" Donna spoke with wide eyes. "We're in Ancient Egypt!"
"What exactly are we doing here?" Ella asked Jikan.
"And what does this place have anything to do with Saskia McTavish?" Lee wondered.
"In the Dark Ages during the late 5th century, Egyptian mystics resides the Desert Ruins away from evil pharaohs." Jikan explained. "This is the first place Saskia arrived to start building her monster army. We have to stop her mission before she completes it."
The Lotus Ninjas, Zack, Yami, and Jikan began walking inside the huge pyramid as they walked into a large room with carved hieroglyphics on the walls.
"Donna, what are these strange markings?" Ellie wondered as she looked around at the walls.
"Hieroglyphics. They are Egyptian writing system that represent words rather than individual letters in Tora symbols." Donna explained. She walked over to the wall that Ellie was staring at. "Lucky for us, I was able to ace Egyptian hieroglyphs in history. It says if mortal flesh enters this tomb, the living shall die while death shall rise."
"Oh snap!" Ellie gasped. "I bet this place got some freaky death traps!"
"I won't worry about that, Ellie. Most tombs were only scribed with warnings, so no one will disturb the dead." Jikan said with a calm smile. "Even ancient mystics believe that's just superstition."
A crystalline lotus flower inside the Temporal Staff started to glow bright blue that allowed Jikan to light up the darkness as he and the others entered another large room. Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, and Yami walked around the craved hieroglyphic walls in amusement while Jikan was staring at one wall that caught his attention.
"Hey, guys, over here!" Jikan called out.
Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, and Yami quickly gathered around Jikan as they stared at the hieroglyphic wall.
"Donna, translation." Lee said as she placed her hands on her hips.
"It says beware of the rotation within the rooms." Donna spoke.
"Uh, I don't think this is a good idea, guys." Ellie said with the hint of fear in her voice. "If I know one thing about Egyptians is that they are experts in death traps."
"Focus on reality, Ellie. There are no death traps in Egyptian pyramids." Donna said with an annoyed sigh.
Donna stepped her right boot on a brown tile that made her sisters and her friends gasp in shock.
"Oops." Donna said sheepishly.
"Hate to say 'I told you so', but I TOLD YOU SO!" Ellie retorted.
Suddenly, the entire room began to shake and an open hole appeared above the heroes in the ceiling. All the mystics were being sucked up to the ceiling before the hole closed up.
The Lotus Ninjas, Zack, Yami, and Jikan screamed as they began falling straight down the hole until it led them to a different room that contained entrances. The heroes landed gracefully on their feet to the ground just as the torches lit up all around them after the hole closed above them.
"Where the heck are we?" Zack asked.
Donna stomped her left foot on the ground to pick up any vibration activities through the room and immediately picked up several unfamiliar figures standing behind the nine entrances through the vibrations.
"We're in another tomb somewhere deep underground." Donna replied. "And we're not alone."
Just then, all nine entrances started to open and nine living mummies came out to surround the offensive heroes in a circle.
"What the heck? It's very unusual to have these mummies alive in one tomb." Jikan commented.
"Well, I'm guessing that these mummies are here to attack the intruders while trying to protect the royal family." Donna stated. "That also means that the king or queen are here somewhere in this..."
"Yeah, yeah, that's very interesting." Ellie retorted.
"Yeah, we get it with history lessons." Ella said. "Let's just get this over with."
Lee sent out two scythe-like blue blades of magical energy at one mummy in her sight. Donna fired a large number of sharp purple magical energy shards at two mummies in rapid succession. Ella shot out a spreadshot of red bolts of magical energy at four mummies from her hands.
Jikan then noticed that the last entrance didn't have any mummies coming out.
"Quickly, head to that entrance!" Jikan called out.
Jikan, Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, and Yami ran straight to the entrance with two last mummies chasing after them. The heroes entered into a large room that started to light up glowing golden yellow panels all around the room.
"Stay on the glowing panels!" Jikan shouted.
Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, and Yami quickly hopped on the glowing golden yellow panels in fast speed until they made it to the other side safely while Jikan levitated himself in the air towards them safe and sound. They turned around to watch two mummies fell onto non-glowing panels that made them into a pit of open flames. The heroes sighed in relief and turned around to continue their destination.
The heroes walked down the tunnel with Jikan leading the way with his illuminating Temporal Staff. They finally entered into a hidden room filled with ancient hieroglyphics and Egyptian goddess statues everywhere.
"Whoa!" Yami gasped in awe.
"This is unbelievable!" Zack breathed in amusement.
"We're here. Welcome to the Queen's chamber." Jikan said with a smile.
"A completely ancient burial chamber of an Egyptian mystic queen." Donna said.
"And we made it here before Saskia!" Ellie cheered.
"There's no way that mutant freak is getting the mummy queen now." Ella said with a smirk.
"Now, all we have to do is reverse the curse that Saskia have called upon and send her back to her time prison." Jikan explained.
Donna walked up to the sarcophagus on top of a flight of stairs, but the sarcophagus was suddenly surrounded by golden light that made everyone froze in their position as they watched the sarcophagus starting to move on its own.
"Uh, what's going on?" Lee asked.
"I think we made a mistake entering the queen's tomb." Jikan replied with a firm face.
The mummy queen began rising from her tomb. She was a statuesque woman with tan skin, long black hair with golden highlights, and purple eyes. She wore a skintight golden yellow jumpsuit made of wrappings with a choker made of matching wrappings. She also has a blue gem on her right cheek.
Suddenly, the sound of laughter caused the heroes to turn around to confront Saskia from the entrance.
"I must thank you for leading me right into the tomb and undo into the curse for me." Saskia said with a dark smile. "Now, the mummy of the mystic queen will be under my command!"
Saskia levitated herself up to the mummy mystic queen and knelt her knee in a bow.
"Great Queen Nefera, mystic ruler of Egypt, heed me. These mystic scoundrels have disturbed your sacred tomb." Saskia said in a pretentious pleading manner. "Join me and we will destroy them together! And the world will be ours for the taken."
Jikan quickly stepped forward and ran up the stairs to confront Nefera.
"Oh, noble queen, please accept my humble apologies." Jikan spoke calmly. "But if you'll return to your resting place, your sacred tomb won't be disturbed once more."
Nefera stepped forward to inspect Jikan with calm, narrow eyes.
"I'll admit you have some bravery." Nefera spoke. Her narrow eyes slowly glowed in golden color on her dangerous face. "But I'll show you my wrath when someone disturb my rest!"
Nefera pointed her hands at the heroes and fired a large amount of sand in the form of a powerful sand tornado towards them with great blunt power that knocked the heroes to the ground. The heroes stood up on their feet as Nefera unleashed a barrage of large solid sand balls at them.
"Look out!" Yami warned.
Lee, Ella, Donna, Ellie, Zack, Yami, and Jikan quickly moved out of the way from large solid sand balls.
Donna summoned a large purple shield out of magical energy to block the sand balls coming in her direction. Ella ran forward and jumped over Nefera to strike her, but Nefera shot out her wrappings to ensnare the red mystic kunoichi and tossed her away. Nefera then smashed one hand down on the ground and attacked two mystic kunoichis with two tornadoes of sand that sent Lee and Donna crash into the wall.
Ellie was swinging strong orange blades of magical energy in fast succession at Saskia, Zack launched a rapid barrage of green ectoplasmic energy spheres, and Yami started channeling flames made of pure psychic energy around herself in the shape of a giant Chinese dragon and then fired it forward that heavily burned Saskia on impact. But Saskia was able to recover from the attacks and shot out three time bubbles to trap Ellie, Zack, and Yami inside. Saskia then swung her hands and released two large waves of sea green energy at Jikan, who dodged them in fast speed.
As Nefera levitated herself above Lee and Donna with her arms engulfed with sand magic, Ella delivered powerful electrical bolts at Nefera. Lee jumped up in the air and shot five blue blasts of magical energy to attack Nefera while Donna fired countless purple beams of magical energy from her palms at the mystic mummy queen.
"Is there any way to reverse the Nefera's curse?" Lee called out to Jikan.
"The inscription on the sarcophagus could help us out!" Jikan answered.
"I'm on it!" Donna called out.
Donna quickly ran up the stairs and started to translate the sacred hieroglyphics on the sarcophagus.
"How's that coming, Donna?" Lee cried as she and Ella were attacking Nefera with their magic.
"All I can figure out is something about the queen must rest in this world to move onto the next!" Donna replied.
"Then let's get her back in her coffin!" Lee declared.
Lee and Ella rushed forward to push Nefera back to her coffin, but Nefera swiftly used her wrappings to grab two mystic kunoichis by the necks and tossed them away. Zack turned his whole body intangible and phased himself out through the time bubble before sending a strong green blast of ectoplasmic energy to destroy the time bubble that set Ellie and Yami free.
Zack and Yami sprinted forward to help Lee, Ella, and Donna against Nefera while Ellie went over to help Jikan, who was dodging Saskia's energy waves.
"The staff belongs to me!" Saskia shouted.
Jikan shot several beams of indigo energy at Saskia from the Temporal Staff, but Saskia protected herself with a sea green force field.
Unfortunately, Ellie jumped above Saskia and kicked her down to the ground that left Jikan aim his Temporal Staff to release a massive sphere of indigo energy at her.
Zack and Yami both performed high flying kick to attack Nefera's chest, throwing the mystic mummy queen straight back to her coffin. Lee waved her hand back and brought it forward, Ella twisted her hand into a fist and opened it in the air, and Donna moved her index finger in a circle as they pointed their magic at Nefera to restrain her with many magical chains. That left Ellie release a supersonic scream in the air from her mouth to break the statue, making it fall onto Nefera and trapping the mystic mummy queen into her sarcophagus.
"It's over, Saskia! Time to send you back to your prison!" Jikan said.
Jikan aimed his Temporal Staff at Saskia as the indigo energy from the crystalline flower began charging into full power.
Then suddenly, a rumbling noise that caught everyone's attention. A powerful blast of sand knocked the Lotus Ninjas, Zack, Yami, and Jikan to the ground as Nefera stood up from her sarcophagus.
"That's not gonna happen." Saskia said with an evil smile. She got up on her feet and stood next to Nefera as she took out the time jumper in her hand. "See you all in time!"
Saskia activated the time jumper to open up a swirly light blue time portal. Lee looked up just in time to see Saskia and Nefera leaving into time portal, but she was too late to stop when the time portal closed itself.
"Oh no! She's gone along with Nefera!" Donna exclaimed.
"We still have a chance to catch up with her." Lee said. "Our friends and the rest of our city need our help. We can't give up on them now."
"You really are a totally tubular leader, Lee." Jikan said with a smile. He conjured up a time portal behind him from his Temporal Staff. "According to the staff, Saskia is now traveling to the Middle Ages."
Lee and Donna jumped through the time portal.
"This is gonna be one crazy time travelling ride." Ella said with a heavy sigh.
Jikan rolled her eyes and kicked Ella into the time portal.
"Thanks, Jikan. I was going to do that myself." Ellie said with a grin.
With that, Ellie and Jikan jumped through the time portal to the Middle Ages.
