Chapter 59: Montana Monsters pt 2
Sam was with Tucker at her house, watching movies. However, despite the movie marathon, she was still sitting scowling with her arms crossed.
Tucker scarfed popcorn loudly as he noticed her mood.
"Popcorn?" He offered.
"Pass…" She didn't even look at it. "Why did Danny have to go?" She pouted.
"He and Kim really want to save the world from dinosaur-dragons." Tucker pointed out.
Sam sighed in exasperation and defeat.
"Well… as long as they're doing that and not making out or anything, I guess I can live with it…"
I so would rather be making out with Kim right now…
Danny thought as more of the Terakons were circling around them. He and Kim were ready while Ron and Rufus shivered in fear.
"Hang on, kids!" Slim shouted as he took out a remote. "Old Tornado and the rest are ready to give a hand!"
Upon pressing the button on his remote, the cavalry arrived.
It was the robotic horses, all of them charging at the smaller Terakons, tackling them and sending them away.
"The Nyklaw!" Slashfang shouted in frustration, even putting his claws on the top of his head.
"I will handle this…" Seastorm said.
He then stepped forward.
He took a breath, which Danny noticed.
"Everyone! Get back!"
That's when a powerful stream of water was fired from his mouth, making Danny create a wall construct to block the flow. It was still strong enough to push Danny back.
"Ooh! A water fight!" Ron went.
"Yeah… I don't recommend it…" Danny said under the strain.
The water finished, leaving the Terakon mosasaur to snarl. Slashfang took a step forward, but Seastorm held a claw up.
"I alone will do this." He insisted.
His ally just shrugged.
"Suit yourself…"
Once Danny lowered his shield, Kim whispered to him.
"Keep him distracted, I have an idea…"
"Got it." Danny nodded.
Danny got hovering and flew into battle as Kim guided everyone else.
"Come on. I got an idea!"
Danny flew at Seastorm and both of them threw their fists, colliding with each other. The impact pushed them both back.
Once Seastorm got his footing, he swiped his claw, but Danny flew back to avoid. He then spun around his foe, but Seastorm turned around and shot water that sent Danny flying away.
Thinking Danny was dealt with, Seastorm went looking for his targets. However, Danny flew in and fired a powerful blast that sent his foe into the ground.
Seastorm got up and tried to grab Danny, but the ghost boy turned invisible and disappeared.
Seastorm looked around.
"Where are you, mammalian mutation?!"
That's when a kick hit him in the back of the head. Snarling, he snapped his teeth, but hit nothing.
That's when he smelled something. He then reached out and grabbed Danny from his left and threw him into the ground.
Reeling from that, Danny looked up.
"This can't be good… where is Kim?" He asked under his breath.
That's when the sounds of horses neighing could be heard.
Several robotic horses came in and ran around Seastorm's legs.
"Now!" Kim shouted.
Slim pressed a button.
Out where the saddles would be placed were speakers. Those speakers released loud noises that momentarily stunned him.
Seeing an opportunity, Danny fired a blast that knocked the giant down.
Slashfang just stood where he was, watching with amusement.
"He did say he'd handle this on his own…" He mused.
Seastorm got up and fired another powerful blast of water.
Danny fired his icy blast, turning the water to ice. Then he flew up and kicked it and sent it back to its source.
Seastorm raised his arms and braced as the ice broke upon impact. Though it hurt, he still looked up and was still ready for more.
"So… there's more to you… good…"
That's when he started unleashing blasts of water. Danny did his best to avoid each attack, all the while he was looking for Kim.
"Any other ideas, Kim?! I could use them!"
That's when Kim used her skills to run up Seastorm's back through his tail, reaching his face and kneeing his snout, actually hurting him.
Danny caught her as she fell and they landed on the ground. He got her back on her feet.
"How's that?" She asked.
"I can live with it." Danny answered.
"You won't for long!" Seastorm said.
He took a breath and unleashed a large surge of water at the two.
Reacting fast, Danny took Kim and phased through the ground to avoid the water.
Ron, watching this from afar from the barn, grabbed a shovel and ran towards Seastorm.
"I'm coming, Kim!" He hit the large Terakon by the leg, which ended up breaking his weapon. Seastorm just looked down at him, clearly questioning why Ron thought that would work. "Heh… that's as far as I got…" The large beast tried to reach for Ron, but he chose to stand his grown. "I'm not scared!" Seastorm roared at him, making Ron shake a bit. "Okay… I'm mildly scared…"
Danny reached up and grabbed Ron, pulling him down for his safety before Seastorm attacked.
This left Slim and his daughter seemingly unprotected. Seastorm saw them and was about to march over and attack.
That's when Danny threw Ron and Kim out, both of them landing on Seastorm's head.
"Here we go!" Kim said.
She punched Seastorm in the eye. This did hurt him and shook his head, while Ron held on and screamed.
Danny flew in and grabbed the two, saving them.
"We got him on the ropes!" Danny shouted.
"Not quite!"
Slashfang reminded everyone he was around.
He had both Slim and Joss in his claws, holding them up, to the heroes' shock.
"Put them down!" Kim demanded.
"Not until we have this sonic technology!" Slashfang stated. He looked to Slim with an evil grin. "Now… share your information, otherwise…" He held the panicking Joss up. "I hope you have more than one offspring…"
Slim gave the large reptile a silent glare before sighing in defeat.
"Fine… just don't hurt my little girl…"
"That's better…" He set Slim down. "Now bring it to us…"
After giving another angered look, Slim walked back to the shed.
"Danny! Now!" Kim ordered.
Danny was about to go after, but he was stopped.
"Make one move… and she suffers." Seastorm said, showing he was serious with an arm cross.
Unwilling to endanger Joss, Danny lowered, letting Kim and Ron go.
None of them were happy about it.
"Just put my cousin down…" Kim demanded.
"Cousins…" Slashfang hissed. "How I hate that word…"
"What for?" Joss, despite her situation, asked.
"If you must know, most of you already met my cousin, Thirorex."
Those familiar with that specific Terakon looked surprised to hear that name.
"He's your cousin?" Kim questioned.
"Uh… you guys have only been around for, like, a few days. How are you already cousins?" Ron questioned.
"We are not cloned beasts… we are the originals… sort of." Slashfang said in annoyed tone. "Our bodies were cloned, but our souls were cursed. Once we had form again, we-"
"Why are you explaining this?!" Seastorm questioned. "We're holding that girl hostage!"
"Oh… right…"
Slashfang remained quiet, while Slim ran back to them.
"Here!" He held the device up. "Take it! Let my daughter go!"
Slashfang looked unimpressed.
"We came for that?!"
"But we can study it and improve where this human failed…" Seastorm said. He looked around. "Where are the Nyklaw?"
That's when, almost on cue, the Nyklaw came out, carrying damaged remains of the robot horses.
"Ah, there you are… grab that thing he's holding." Slashfang ordered.
One of them let the robotic horse head it was carrying down, walking up to Slim and taking it from him.
"There. Let us return to the king…" Seastorm said.
With a wave of his hand, a portal opened.
Slashfang, mixed with both jealousy and confusion, had to ask.
"How do you even do that?!"
"It's tied to my DNA…" He answered. "Now let's go. Drop that human already…"
Slashfang did so. He casually tossed Joss aside, to everyone shock.
As she screamed, Danny flew in and caught her.
"You okay?!" Danny asked as he landed.
"Yeah… thanks Danny." She responded.
The Terakons made their escape, going through the portal. Slashfang made sure to give them a toothy grin on his way before the portal closed.
After that, Global Justice arrived. They were taking various possessions of Slim and Joss into a truck.
All the while, Kim was with Betty Director.
"So, they took what they were looking for?" She asked.
"Afraid so…" Kim said.
"Well, in case they come back, we'll be keeping an eye on them in a secure location." Director responded. "They will be under our protective custody."
Kim nodded. That's when she noticed Danny was answering his cellphone, and looking annoyed as he started walking away. She went to him and spoke.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"Guess who called? And who isn't very patient?" He responded.
Kim had a very upset look on her face.
"Bonnie?"
"Yeah…" He said. "She's expecting me back in Amity Park." He said. He took a breath. "I'm sorry. If I don't go, she'll open her big mouth."
"I understand…" Kim said with a nod. "Fly fast."
"Okay…" He responded.
He took off into the air and flew in the direction of Amity Park.
Ron, having seen this but not know what's going on, walked up to Kim.
"Where's he going?"
"He's got a sitch of his own to deal with…" She responded with a sympathetic look.
"This is the device?" Thirorex questioned.
He took a look at it, showing he wasn't very impressed with what Seastorm presenting in his claw.
Slashfang grinned and nodded.
"Indeed, my king." He said. "Clearly this was a waste of time…"
Seastorm rolled his eyes at Slashfang.
"You're not suggesting I wouldn't be able to reverse engineer this and create a more useful version for our purposes?" He questioned.
Slashfang's grin was replaced with a surprised look.
"You can do that?"
"I just require large amounts of metal, likely steel." Seastorm said. "I will also require smaller hands that do not have long claws to ensure even the smallest detail is accurate. The Nyklaw will not do…"
"So, you need smaller hands…" Thirorex pondered for a moment before an evil grin came to his face. "I believe it's time you met those responsible for our return…"
Sorry for not updating sooner. Also sorry this was short.
Still though, there wasn't as much as I wanted to put down.
However, it looks like Danny and Kim's villains are getting involved again.
Meantime, they need to deal with Bonnie.
