Amelia immediately ran right at Dr. Facilier and tackled him onto the ground.
She then began to repeatedly punch him in the face.
After a few punches, Dr. Facilier held her next punch back with his magic scepter, and then grabbed her by the neck.
She made a gagging sound and then Dr. Facilier threw her next to him.
The both of them stood up and Amelia charged again.
Amelia ran at him with punches but he easily dodged them.
He then dodge again and whacked Amelia across the back with his scepter.
She groaned in pain and fell to the ground.
"No! Amelia!" yelled Finn.
"Shut up boy!" yelled Dr. Facilier.
He shot magic from his scepter at everyone's mouths and they were all magically shut.
Amelia stood up again and was about to charge when suddenly she was stopped.
She couldn't move anything but her head, which she used to turn around and look down, seeing different shadows holding onto hers and stopping her.
"Surely you didn't forget my friends on the other side did you?" asked the Shadowman.
Amelia just glared at him.
"I don't need magic to defeat you!" she yelled.
Dr. Facilier laughed.
"You're a fool if you think you can defeat me with just your fists!" he yelled. "In fact I wouldn't need my own brother to help me defeat you!"
Amelia then looked at the Shadowman stunned.
"Brother?" she asked. "You have a brother too!?"
"Why of course!" said Dr. Facilier. "And trust me if he was here, he would be the ones leading the Neo-Overtakers. Not Hades."
"Why's that?" asked Amelia.
"Because he is more powerful than anyone here, even Chernabog," said Dr. Facilier with a wicked smile.
Amelia found herself intrigued, but then remembered what was happening.
"I still don't need magic!" she yelled. "And maybe you should play fair too!"
Dr. Facilier thought for a moment, and then shook his head.
"I don't think so," he said.
He then disappeared in a cloud of smoke, and then reappeared right in front of Amelia.
"I rather just break you with magic," he said.
Amelia stared at the Shadowman, unable to move.
Dr. Facilier then twirled his scepter and then jabbed it straight into Amelia's stomach.
She cried out in pain and gasped for breath, glad it didn't go through her.
Dr. Facilier then leaped back, and blasted magic at Amelia.
The shadows let go of her, and she went flying into the wall on impact.
All the Keepers could do was scream muffled screams.
Amelia still stood back up and ran at Dr. Facilier.
She continued to throw punches at him, but he dodged them all.
After another punch and dodge, Dr. Facilier spun in front of her and whacked her across the face with his scepter.
He did it twice and then rammed his fist into her stomach.
Amelia spat out blood and groaned.
"Enough child's play," said Dr. Facilier.
The Shadowman then chopped down on her back and made her fall to the ground.
As Amelia struggled to get up, Dr. Facilier lifted her up with magic and then slammed her on the ground.
Amelia gasped in pain on impact, but was immediately lifted back up and then repeatedly thrown onto the floor.
Finn was crying his eyes out as he saw his daughter getting beaten mercilessly to death.
After a bunch of slamming, the Shadowman lifted her up and again blasted her into the wall again.
Amelia was in so much pain and could barely move.
She saw Dr. Facilier walking towards her, and she immediately put her hands up.
"No more please!" she cried out. "I surrender!"
Dr. Facilier chuckled.
"Nice try," he said. "But I'm not taking any prisoners."
Amelia was then lifted into the air by a shadowy hand on the wall.
She was then held against the wall by the hand, staring down at Dr. Facilier who just looked at her.
"You see girl, I am going to kill you here and now," he said. "I am Lord Hades' number 1 guy, and I never fail him."
Amelia saw his scepter beginning to glow, meaning he was preparing magic.
"Once I kill you, and then after I kill your parents, there will be no one left to stand in our way," said Dr. Facilier. "The Neo-Overtakers will rule the world."
Amelia snorted.
"Aren't you forgetting the other Young Keepers?" she asked.
Dr. Facilier began to laugh.
"You think a bunch of stupid little kids can defeat us!?" he laughed.
Amelia chuckled.
"Maleficent was killed by a stupid little kid," she said. "And that little kid was me!"
"Silence!" yelled Dr. Facilier.
He snapped her fingers and the shadowy hand covered her mouth.
"I will delay no longer!" he yelled. "You die here and now! And right in front of your parents!"
He turned around to them and smiled.
"I hope your watching," he said.
The Keepers didn't have a choice due to the fact that Dr. Facilier was using magic to make them look and keep their eyes open.
Dr. Facilier then turned back to Amelia and smiled.
"I hope your ready to die girl," he said.
He raised his scepter and suddenly green magic poured out of it, creating swords made of green light floating in the air.
He then made the swords point at Amelia, who was staring wide-eyed at.
She knew she couldn't escape, and she had no magic to help her.
She was beginning to believe it was truly the end.
She saw Dr. Facilier throw back his hand, meaning he was about to throw the swords at her.
"This is it," she said in her mind. "This is where I die."
Even though she knew that, she chose not to be afraid.
She relieved herself of all fear and closed her eyes.
She heard Dr. Facilier yell, and knew the swords were coming at her.
She let go of herself, almost as if she was there, and let herself begin to drift away.
Suddenly, before the swords could hit her, the sight came into Amelia's mind.
She didn't know how it did, but the image of pure light came into her mind.
Suddenly, she felt herself fall to the ground, and heard the swords impale the wall.
But they didn't impale her.
"WHAT!?" Amelia heard Dr. Facilier yell.
She opened her eyes, and saw she was sitting on the ground against the wall.
She looked up seeing the swords that were meant to stab her impaled in the wall.
She then looked at her hands and gasped.
She was made of nothing but pure light.
"My DHI," she gasped. "I'm my DHI!"
She realized that had done what all the Kingdom Keepers were able to do.
She had crossed over while still being human and became her DHI.
She was now made of pure light, which is why the hand lost it's grip on her.
Dr. Facilier growled loudly as Amelia stood up.
She smirked at the witchdoctor who was not happy.
Dr. Facilier yelled out and blasted magic at her.
It went straight though her and out the window.
"You can't stay as a ghost forever!" he yelled. "I've watched over the others! None of them can hold it for long!"
Amelia just smiled at him.
She didn't feel weak or like she was losing her DHI at all.
She then charged at Dr. Facilier who kept blasting magic at her.
They all went right through her and then she tackled him again.
The Keepers were amazed.
It was true that none of them could hold their DHI while human for longer than Amelia has.
The Shadowman tried to whack Amelia off him, but his scepter just went through her.
"You can't touch me," she said.
He then attempted to whack her again, but this time she grabbed his arm and then snatched his scepter out of his hand.
"But I can touch you," she said.
Dr. Facilier managed to get off her as she began to walk towards him.
"St…stay back!" he stammered. "Get away from me you freak!"
Amelia ran at him and whacked his legs with the scepter.
She began to repeatedly whack him until he was weak and on the ground.
Dr. Facilier stared at Amelia who was over her.
He then spat out blood, which just went through her.
"What are you waiting for?" he asked. "Finish it then!"
Amelia snorted and shook her head.
"No," she said. "But you are going to do something for me!"
She bent down and reached into his coat.
Since he could barely move, he couldn't stop her.
Amelia then found what she was looking for, which was Dr. Facilier's Talisman.
His eyes popped open at the sight.
"NO DON'T!" he yelled.
"You're going to do something for me or I will destroy this!" she yelled.
"I'll do anything! Please!" he yelled.
She smiled and then handed Dr. Facilier her scepter.
She then pointed at the wall.
"You are going to open a portal back to Disneyland, and you are going to let us all leave!" she yelled.
Dr. Facilier nodded and pointed his scepter at the wall, and then magic shot from it making a portal.
"It doesn't matter what you do," he said. "You may be the only one who can stop Hades, but that was only with magic. You have no chance against him."
Amelia just smiled at him.
"I'll take my chances," she said.
She then wrapped the talisman string in her hand, gripped it, and then punched Dr. Facilier right in the face knocking him out.
After Dr. Facilier was beaten, she immediately lost her DHI status, but she didn't care.
"I won't stop until I'm dead," she said.
Amelia put the talisman back in Dr. Facilier's coat and then immediately went to untie all the keepers.
Wayne and Dillard helped too.
Amelia untied Finn and Amanda who were finally able to talk again.
"Can you two stand?" she asked.
"Yeah I can," said Finn standing up.
He then helped Amanda stand up too.
For a second, the two stared at Amelia, and then Finn grabbed her and pulled her into the tightest hug he ever gave her.
"My precious daughter!" he cried out. "I thought I would never see you again!"
Amelia just hugged him and Amanda who had joined the hug.
Eventually all the Keepers joined in on the hug.
They were all so happy.
"Children please!" Wayne suddenly yelled.
They all turned to the ghost.
"You must stop Hades!" he yelled. "Or the world will be doomed!"
"Right!" said Finn. "Come on guys!"
They all ran towards the portal.
Jess and Tim went through it first, and then went Maybeck, Charlene, Willa, and Philby.
Amanda then went through, but Finn stopped before he and Amelia could go through.
Finn turned towards Wayne and Dillard and smiled.
"Thank you Wayne," he said. "Thank you for everything. I never got to tell you that before you died."
The old man smiled at him.
"I did what I was trained for," he said. "I did what I knew was right. Walt Disney himself told me he was proud of me."
"Walt Disney!?" yelled Amelia. "He's here!? In the Underworld!?"
"Of course he is!" yelled Dillard. "I met him too!"
Finn smiled at Dillard.
"Thank you too Dillard," he said. "I wouldn't be here still today without your sacrifice."
He then stared at Amelia.
"She wouldn't even be here without you," he said.
"I did what a true friend would've done," said Dillard. "Now go and save the parks again!"
Finn nodded and jumped through the portal.
Amelia was about to when Wayne stopped her.
"Before you go I have something to give to you," he said.
He reached into his pocked and then pulled out a watch.
"This was my watch," he said. "I had it given to Finn after I died. It was what he used to kill Chernabog."
"Apparently when Finn died at first it died with him," said Dillard. "He was in here for about a minute, before he was revived, and unfortunately this stayed."
Wayne then handed Amelia the watch, and it suddenly became real.
"Now I'm giving it to you," he said. "I believe this will come to be of great use to you."
"How?" asked Amelia. "Will it help kill or defeat Hades? Will it help me get my magic back?"
"In time you will see," said Wayne. "Now go child! Save the world! It is your destiny!"
Amelia smiled and nodded, and then jumped through the portal.
After Amelia jumped through the portal, it disappeared, leaving the room empty except for Wayne and Dillard and an unconscious Dr. Facilier.
"Now that that's done," said Wayne. "It's finally time to move on!"
"With Hades not here we can finally leave the River of Souls," said Dillard.
He then stared at the stairs heading towards the River Styx.
"Finally he can't stop us from moving on to the Elysian Fields," he said.
Wayne put his hand on Dillard's shoulder and they began to head towards the stairs.
"Come child," he said. "We finally leave. Our work here is done."
Dillard giggled as they walked down the stairs.
Dr. Facilier had woken up just to see Wayne and Dillard leave.
He sat up and wiped the blood off his face.
He then sighed.
"Hades is going to be furious," he said. "However now that the girl has left the underworld."
He then looked up.
"Then she can still defeat him," he said.
He then smiled a crooked smile.
"Hades is going to lose, and finally it will be my turn," he said.
He stood up and grabbed his scepter.
"I shall make preparations, to bring my brother back," he said.
He laughed menacingly and then disappeared into smoke.
Amelia defeated Dr. Facilier, freed the Keepers, and escaped the Underworld! Hooray! But can she still defeat Hades? And who is this brother Dr. Facilier spoke of? Take a guess, please!
See you next update! Review please dearies!
