Part 3

Chapter 20

Lucy's POV

"Did he just say that the door will shut, since we released Tiny Tina and Lucy?" Ryan asked.

"That is what it sounded like," Luna said.

"I am really starting to hate Dark Matter," Scrappy said.

"James, do you have a plan?" I asked.

"I hope he does," Chase Hunter said.

James Hunter snapped, "DAMN IT, DAMN IT. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS A TRAP. DAMN IT," he shouted.

Liz looked, "Well, that is certainly a different reaction from James's calm and usual demeanor," she said.

"Ro roes rhis rean re rare read?" Scooby Junior said.

"We don't have to worry. Someone will come up with something," Tiny Tina said.

Daniel looked at his true love. "How exactly are we going to find a way out if the doors are locked?" Daniel asked.

"There is always a way. It may not always be seen, but it is always there," Shaun said. I looked around and saw that there was no alternate route of escape; it seemed Dark Matter thought of everything.

The recording of Dark Matter started to play again. "Are you perplexed young heroes? I thought you were all such worthy foes, but I guess none of you will get to see the after show. It sure will be a fun one," his voice said.

"Pyro, are we going to die?" Phantom asked.

"I don't know, Phantom, I don't know," Pyro said.

"I can't believe I am dying in the same room, as that thing," Kiff said.

"I have a name you know," Nessie said.

"I prefer not to call you by it, since you don't call me by my real name," Kiff said.

"Oh, shut up, Wherever Boy," Nessie said.

Twiggy snapped at both of them, "We don't have time for this pointless arguing Nessie and my nephew. It is not helping our current scenario at all," he said.

"So are we just going to stand here? We are heroes, there is a way out. We have the Doctor and Chase Hunter and James Hunter," Lily said.

"I don't think they are enough. Three people can't always save the day," Scrappy said.

"True, Scrappy, but we are more than three powers and I am not giving up. Not in this lifetime," Lily said.

"So, I guess we are going to have to work as a team." Dream Caster said.

Laura looked at Dream Caster oddly, "Leo agreeing to work as a team. It is unheard of. This truly must be the end," she said.

"We have to find the missing piece. There must be something we are not seeing," Antonio "Raven" Falcon said.

"The missing link is still unknown, though," Jason said.

I looked up, "There seems to be a piece of something up there and a lever," I said.

"How are we supposed to reach that, though?" Ally asked.

Rift agreed, "If we had wings or could use psychic abilities, then we have a ghost of a chance, but there is no way, now," he said.

Lucky raised an eyebrow, "There is a way, Rift. It seems this requires an invention," he said.

"This is a lab, so there is something here that can help us," Cassie said.

"But this place has too much junk to be able to sort everything in just enough time. It would take days to find the right invention," Robert said.

"I believe I can be of some assistance. I have a special gift of distinguishing junk technology from useful stuff and I can build something if we need to," Alix said.

Alex smiled, "Do I have a smart girl, or what?" Alex asked.

"Let's get to work on this, while Chase and the others try to calm down James," Life said.

"Well, let's get started," Alix said. I went over to watch Sophie's talk to James to calm him down.

"You are a child of two very gift families, one inventor and the others incredibly rich and your mother is great," Sophie Knight said.

"James, you are not something ordinary, you are something extraordinary," Lucas Hunter said. I walked away to give him some time for his mind to process that information.

"I feel so useless. There is nothing to do here," Sora said.

The recording device started up again, "Well, it seems you are using the junk. Well, we can't make this easy. Have some heartless to play with. They aren't child friendly," he said.

"I think you guys should take care of those monsters," Fangs said.

"Alix needs time, so make sure the heartless don't come near us," Lilly said.

"Sora, Terra, Eon, Ally, Aqua and I can keep these things at bay," I said.

Dark Matter's voice broke into the recording. "Well, it seems that some people are missing the actions. Let's play with some zombies," he said.

"Oh crud, this is not good," Dominick said.

"Oh great, the undead," Twiggy, the Pokémon, said.

"It is time to practice our dynamic combo move," Hawk and Speedy said.

"I think I will sit this one with Ezekiel," Dynomutt said.

"I am not letting you fight the heartless alone. I am coming," Chance said.

"Don't lose. We need to make sure this succeeds," Alix said.

"This is going to get intense," I said. I started to hum a tune.

Lucy: The heartless are here.

They have come for our souls.

Here comes our fight.

On the zombie side, all the zombies were defeated. Ally had just slayed a heartless along with Chance. They continue to come at them. They started to multiply in great numbers.

"Damn, we are doomed," Alix said. A keyblade was thrown and eliminated all the heartless and a person jumped through the wall. It was Aaron and Xion.

"Aaron, you're okay. How did you escape?" James asked.

"We escaped a while back and was wondering in the catacombs, when we heard the noise and got here just in the nick of time," Aaron said.

"We can't go back that way, the tunnel caved in," Xion said.

"Scooby, go up there and pull the lever, with this umbrella" Alix said. Scooby pulled the lever and a secret passage slide out. The lava was starting to come.

"Guys, I think it is time to scram," I said. We all rush into the tunnel with Scooby behind us. We all scurried into the passageway and the lava followed us, as we all reached a high ledge. Scooby tripped over a rock and he fell.

"I am coming, Scooby," James said. He jumped down and grabbed Scooby and the lava was getting close to them. They ran, but it was too close and was about to catch up with them. It seemed they were doomed.

AN: Here is your cliffhanger. Review! This chapter's song was called "The fight." I have one more things to do,

Reviewer thanks

Ezekiel: Yes agreed. I know the Time Lord is very good at riddles. I know and he will or will he? Well it is good to know.

WG, Kiff and Norm and Blackrose: Wow you react fast. I know. Yeah it was. I couldn't agree more with the last statement.
