The Adventures of Plant Pete!

Chapter 12: The Battle of the Plants

"I wonder where Jordan is!" His mother shouted. "It is 5:00 PM!"

"BREAKING NEWS!" The reporter screamed. "The 30K Horde of Zombies has arrived a few minutes ago. But the thing is, it is actually 100K Zombies. Everyone is required to evacuate, or stay in their homes and lock all entrances. You also MUST turn off all electronics, INCLUDING YOUR TV!"

*FLASH!*

Mrs. Johnson turned the TV off. "Where could Jordan be?"

"I bet there was another fight," Marco said.

"Quiet, Marco." His mother said.

"But the thing is, Jordan is outside, where there are 100K zombies!" Jordan's grandmother announced.

"I'm so grateful I didn't go to work today." Jordan's father sat down, worried. "Where could Jordan be?!"

They turned off all lights and electronics. They went into the basement and sat down, with batteries, a radio, canned food, flashlights, and other things. Marco was playing on his Nintendo Switch.

*GRAB!*

His mother took it.

"STOP!" Marco screamed. "I was playing Zelda! What, you don't like Zelda?"

"You can't play video games because it emits light and noise."

"But the volume was down!" Marco lied, even though he had it on 100.

His mother turned it off and placed it next to her.

"Ugh," Marco grunted. "Why do we even need all of these things? There ain't no tornado or storm outside."

"Shush Marco." Mr. Johnson said.

"Why don't we evacuate?" Marco asked.

"If we do, we are putting a lot of things at risk." Ms. Johnson explained. "I feel like evacuating should be used as a last resort."

MEANWHILE...

"AAAAA!" Plant Pete screamed.

*BANG!* *BANG!*

Bomb zombies threw many bombs in the air. All of the bombs landed on the ground at the same time and it caused a big explosion. Plant Pete fell.

"Ugh!" Plant Pete groaned.

"No time for relaxing!" Plant Pete X shouted.

"What? I fell!"

*BANG!*

A bomb zombie threw a bomb.

*BANG!*

The bomb had good value, as it hit both PP and PPX.

"AAAAAA!" They flew in the air and fell.

"S-Stupid bomb zombies..." Plant Pete groaned. "Ugh!"

*ZOOM!

The Watchmaker appeared. He smacked his watch.

*SMACK!*

He transformed into Golden Plant Pete. Zomboss saw Golden Plant Pete.

"Yes..." His eyes widened. "The most powerful one! Attack the gold one!"

All of the zombies went toward Golden Plant Pete.

"Uh oh." Plant Pete shot a vine at the bomb-throwing zombie.

*TUG!*

"Get over here!" Plant Pete pulled the bomb-throwing zombie towards him.

*SLICE!*

Plant Pete X sliced that zombie's head right off.

"HA YEAH!" Plant Pete X laughed.

"NO!" Zomboss shouted. To Zomboss, the bomb-throwing zombies were the best zombies.

*SLICE!**SLICE!**SLICE!*

All of the bomb-throwing zombies were dead. There were only 10 of them.

"INFERNO BLAST!" Golden Plant Pete shot at the Giga Gargantuar.

*SHINE!*

A bright golden light came out of his hands. The Inferno Blast does a small amount of damage, but the amount of damage it does increases over time. The Giga Gargantuar died in about 10 seconds.

"WHOA!" Plant Pete watched.

"GOLDEN PEA!" Golden Plant Pete threw a golden pea at a horde of 100 football zombies.

*BANG!*

All 100 of the football zombies died.

"GET OVER HERE!" Jordan threw a vine at a Giga-Gargantuar's leg. He pulled it close to him.

*SLICE!*

Plant Pete X cut his head off. There were 3 Giga-Gargantuars left, and one of them held a chair with Zomboss inside. Zomboss noticed that they were killing the Gargantuars. Zomboss jumped off the chair and landed on the ground.

*SMACK!*

Dr. Zomboss turned into the Apocalypser.

"DARK POISON!" He shot a poison ball.

Plant Pete was dealing with Football zombies. He turned around. "AAAA!"

*BANG!*

Plant Pete fell down. "UGH!" He groaned. Plant Pete X was attacking football zombies. He saw that Plant Pete was down.

"Get up!"

"I-I'm hurt!"

"You have to fight the pain."

"I can't fight pain and zombies at the same time!"

"GRRR..." Plant Pete X just left him on the ground. "Uh oh."

10 Poison balls were flying in the sky. Plant Pete X hit a poison ball with his leaf sword.

*BANG!*

It burst, and PPX fell.

"That wasn't a smart play." Golden PP said, about 5 feet away. "INFERNO BLAST!"

A Giga Gargantuar died in 10 seconds. Two were left.

"SUMMON!" Zomboss shouted, summoning 10 MORE Giga Gargantuars!

"Heck no!" Golden PP said. He looked at Zomboss. "There's an easy way to end all of this."

*BLAST!*

Golden Plant Pete used inferno blast on Zomboss.

"AAAAAAA!" Zomboss screamed. Zomboss ran from the inferno blast.

"GET OVER HERE!" Plant Pete got up and shot a vine at Zomboss. It wrapped around Zomboss's leg, and PP pulled him closer.

"NOOOOO!" Zomboss screamed. "MERCY, PLEASE!"

Plant Pete continued to pull Zomboss closer, and Golden PP continues to blast him.

"UGH..." Zomboss was dying. He fell to the ground.

*BANG!*

There was an explosion, and all of the zombies died. Plant Pete X got up. "They all died already?"

The 3 heroes looked around. There were no zombies, anywhere.

"I used my powerful Inferno blast on zomboss, and when he died, all of the zombies did as well, apparently." Golden Plant Pete explained.

"Well, I don't know how that happened, but I'm happy it did." Plant Pete smiled.

The SWAT Team came out of their hiding spots.

"No way they died that fast." soldier looked around.

"We killed the zombie leader, and all of the other zombies died." PPX explained.

"Oh." Another soldier said. "Well great!"

2 HOURS LATER...

Life was back the way it was. Jordan's family came out from the basement after hearing that all of the zombies were gone. It was about 7-o-clock at night.

"No way it was that fast," Marco said.

"They killed the zombie summoner." Ms. Johnson said. "And when he died, all of the other zombies died."

"Good," Marco wiped some sweat off of his face. "No more zombies."

"I hope Jordan is alright." His mom began to sweat.

"I really hate how this all happened at night," Mr. Johnson said. "It's super scary."

"I'm just glad this is all over." His grandmother said.

They turned on the TV and switched to the news channel.

"Good night, everyone." The TV reporter spoke. "We are here in town, with our heroes, Plant Pete, Plant Pete X, and a new hero, Golden Plant Pete! It was an astonishing finish when these heroes have destroyed 100,000 zombies, in a short amount of time. Tell me, how did you guys destroy the zombies super fast?" The Reporter pointed the microphone to them.

"Well, we actually targeted the zombie leader." Golden Plant Pete responded. "I have this attack called 'Inferno Blast'. It's a big laser that does more damage over time when shooting a target."

"Splendid!" The reporter smiled. "And did you use this on the Zombie leader?"

"Yeah he did, and apparently, it automatically destroyed all of the zombies." Plant Pete said.

"ALL OF THEM?" The reporter's eyes opened wide.

"All of them." Plant Pete X nodded.

The reporter just stood there for a few seconds, then shouted- "You just heard them! There are NO MORE ZOMBIES! Give it up for he heroes!"

"YAAAAAAAAAAY!" Everyone in the town shouted and cheered. The chief of police arrived and took over the stage. He announced more awards for the heroes.

"YAY!" Plant Pete kissed his new medals.

*FLASH!*

Jordan's mom turned the TV off and then she ran to the corner, with her face covered with her hands and crying.

"Sasha, what's wrong?" Ms. Johnson put her hand on her shoulder.

"Jordan! I have no clue where he could be!" She cried.

"OHHH!" Marco cried. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss him too!"

Everyone stood there and stared at Marco.

"Can we all just cry now?" Marco asked.

1 SECOND LATER...

"AAAAAAAAA!" They all cried.

BACK IN TOWN...

"So heroes, do you officially say that the zombies are completely eradicated?" The reporter asked.

The heroes stood there for a second and then shouted-

"YES!"

Everyone clapped and cheered.

"This is really amazing news for everyone in town." The reporter said. "Now that the zombies have been completely eradicated, many businesses can reopen, and many people can live normal lives. This could reunite friends and family!"

"Yeah..." Plant Pete said. Then, his eyes opened wide. "OH SHOOT!"

"What's wrong?" PPX asked.

"I have to go home! My mom is wondering where I am right now!" PP shouted.

"Don't go so soon!" The TV reporter asked. "These people want their merch autographed!"

"Wait, they have merch of us?" Golden Plant Pete asked.

"I-I really have to go!" Plant Pete shouted.

"NOOOOO!" The people shouted.

*SHOOT!*

He shot a vine at a building and jumped on it. The people watched PP leave.

"Want our autograph?" Golden Plant Pete asked.

Everyone grunted, growled, and walked away.

"Well, that's it for this story." The reporter said as he put his hand over the cameraman's camera.

MEANWHILE...

Everyone was crying in Jordan's aunts house.

*BANG!*

The door flew open and Jordan came out.

"JORDAN!" His mom instantly ran to him and hugged him. "WHERE WERE YOU? ARE YOU ALRIGHT?"

"Yeah, I'm fine mom." Jordan nodded. Jorden had ripped his clothing and made fake bruises and bumps to make it look like he encountered zombies on the way home from afterschool.

"Jordan, did you get attacked by Zombies AGAIN?" Marco smiled.

"Yes..." Jordan grunted.

"Ha, you little pimp. Looks like you have to toughen up." He rubbed his head.

"Stop!" Jordan smacked his hand away.

Jordan's mom, aunt, grandma, uncle, and dad all had relieved faces.

"My god..." His grandmother had her hand on her chest. "Never again. I ain't trying to get high blood pressure. At this age, hell no."

*COUGH!* *COUGH!*

His grandma coughed.

"Looks like you need to go to bed, mom." Ms. Wakefield helped her get up and go upstairs.

"Mom, when are we moving back home?" Marco grunted.

"Your mother and I do not know." Mr. Wakefield said firmly as he put his hands on his hips. "The only thing we can do now is to be patient."

Marco hissed his teeth. "I wanna get back home!" He whined.

His grandmother looked at him in disgust.

MEANWHILE...

"HA HA HA!" Dr. Zomboss laughed in his lair. He wasn't killed, it was a clone of him that was actually killed.

"They actually thought they killed me. I can't wait to see the look on their faces when they see another Zombie!"

Dr. Zomboss fixed his big, white lab coat and walked to his potions. Many potions were in test tubes, but one was in a beaker. He smacked the potions on testubes out of the way.

*SMACK!* *CRASH* *CRACK!*

Dr. Zomboss looked at the potion in the beaker. It was a color-changing chemical. "My precious." Dr. Zomboss grabbed the substance and drank the it.

*GLURG!* *GLURG!* *GLURG!*

"AAAAAAAAAAAA!" Dr. Zombos screamed. "It's working! It's working!" He shouted as he grew bigger and bigger. His eyes flashed.
