Chapter 25 is here! Okay, last chapter, Dina learned how to control her electric powers! She even learned an awesome new move! (Again, I do not own that ability. It is from an anime.) Between last chapter and this chapter, I skipped the part where Todd, Pauleen, and Rupert practice their powers.

With that out of the way, on with the chapter!

Chapter 25: A Powerful Enemy

*Dina's POV*

Todd, Pauleen, and Rupert have finally finished training. It turns out that our new powers give us each a unique ultimate attack. Mine is the railgun, Todd's is the ability to create a wall of wind that blocks attacks and blows away enemies, Pauleen's is a firestorm, which is where fire literally rains from the sky on our enemies, and Rupert can combine the power of fire, water, air, earth, and electricity into one super powerful elemental blast. Selena also somehow is able to control ice in addition to her energy attacks, which allows her to basically turn an enemy into an ice statue. Our powers are awesome.

The only problem is that if we take the wristbands off, even though we can still use our powers, we can also be harmed by each other's attacks. So we need to be careful.

"We need to leave sooner or later." Todd said.

"As safe as we are here, we can't stay forever, digadig." Pauleen said.

"Unfortunately, they're right." Rupert said.

"What do you think, Selena?" I asked.

"We need to figure out what's going on." She said. "If we don't stop whoever's behind this, it won't be long before even my house becomes unsafe."

"Okay." I said. "Let's start at Treasure Lake. We have ran into trouble every time we've been there lately, so if they attack again and we beat them, maybe one of them will reveal who and where their leader is. It's possible that their leader might even be there."

"It's a long shot, but Dina might be right. And if we get ambushed again, our new abilities will be useful." Rupert said.

"Then let's go, digadig!" Pauleen said.

"Yeah!" Todd shouted.

"Let's go." Selena said.

We headed to Treasure Lake. Everything seemed calm.

That is, until a gunshot rang out and a bullet almost hit me in the face. I instantly reacted and reflected it. The shooter fell out of the tree, dead. Hundreds of bullets suddenly flew towards us, but Todd created a wind wall that blocked them. He released the wall of wind. We all were wielding elemental swords, ready to fight.

"Let's do this!" I shouted.

"Yeah!" the others shouted.

We charged in different directions, and hundreds of machine gun-wielding people charged out as well. We defeated most of them with our swords, but there were still a lot of them left.

"Pauleen! Use your ultimate move!" I shouted.

Pauleen nodded and raised her arms. Suddenly, fireballs flew at our enemies from every direction, killing a lot of them.

Several of them surrounded me, but I used an electric shield, then released it, which shocked the life out of the circle of enemies.

I saw Rupert blow away a large cluster of enemies with his ultimate move.

It was my turn. A bunch of enemies ran towards me. I pulled a token out of my pocket and flipped it. The enemies kept charging. The coin hit my hand and fired through about 20 enemies before hitting one of their guns and exploding, blowing up several more in the process.

I saw Selena struggling to take out an enemy with a sword. The enemy knocked her to the ground. Selena was in trouble. I ran up to save her.

"Don't!" she shouted. "I've got this!" Suddenly, the sword hit her, but it was knocked out of his hand and the enemy was launched back, even though he was uninjured.

Then I realized why.

Selena had channeled her energy into the reflection ability, blasting him back. She got up and fired a beam of energy right through his chest.

One enemy was left, but he had some tough-looking armor on. "Let's finish this!" I shouted.

They all nodded. Rupert gave him a wind-powered uppercut, sending him flying about 30 feet into the air. Pauleen ran up to the cliff, jumped up, and ended up above him. She kicked him downwards, also adding a fiery burst to the kick. Todd appeared and punched him in the stomach, also using wind power, which sent him flying towards me. I ran towards him, then used my rocket boots to fly up and kick him at full speed. Selena teleported above him and punched him in the face. We all used our powerful abilities to finish him.

Todd used a massive wind blade, Pauleen used a huge fireball, Selena used an ice blast to freeze him, Rupert used an elemental blast, and I used my railgun.

We all fired at once.

There was a massive explosion that no one could have survived.

But someone was there, not only alive, but completely unharmed.

That enemy had been the leader.

Cliffhanger! Next chapter continues from this spot. Keep reading and reviewing!
