Chapter 14: Darkness Unleashed.

Out of the orb, burst an explosion of purple smog that swirled around in an ominous cloud. When it cleared, everyone saw a large, humanoid figure with a large, heart-shaped hole in its chest. Raised portions and ridges on its black skin gave it an armored appearance. It featured large, spiked horns on the sides of its head, and two more rising from its forehead which formed the shape of a heart; all four horns faded from black to red to yellow, giving them the appearance of heated metal. Its tail ended in a bladed fin with a diamond-shaped hole through it. Its two-toed, clawed feet stood upon swirling vortexes of white energy, which it uses to "skate" around a small area. It had undersized, purple bat-like wings on its shoulders and dull purple tendrils wrapped around its throat like a scarf, which draped down on either side of its "heart." It also had tendrils wrapped around each wrist, which faded to the same burning yellow color as its horns. In each hand it held a large blue sword with hook-like extensions near the tip and an exaggerated gold hilt with a knuckle bow. Its face appeared featureless before it revealed two eerie, yellow-glowing eyes. It stretched for a bit, making scary-deep pitched noises that sounded like grunting before it cast a cloud across the sky, blinding out the sun. It looked around before it saw Team Rocket with the broken orb.

It then pointed at them while still clutching its sword, "You! Thank you!" it said in a very scary deep-pitched voice.

"Who are you?! WHAT are you?!" James asked.

The creature then slid over to them before it bowed as if it was offering service.

"I am called the Dark Inferno. You have freed me from a millenium's imprisonment, and I am very grateful. For that, I shall grant you any evil deed you wish." the creature said.

Team Rocket looked intrigued before Meowth said, "Well, if you could help empower us to defeat these here heroes and rule da world, we'd be very grateful."

"Very well. Now that I think about it, ruling the world is a much better option than destroying it." The Dark Inferno said before it waved its hand, which was clouded in dark energy. The next thing Team Rocket knew, they had changed. James was wearing some kind of strange bodysuit that appeared to be made of black muscle tissue that turned red around the wrists, which led to purple gloves tucked underneath. The chest was a purple blue color with a strange symbol on the torso. It resembled a heart with a fleur-de-lis at the base, and was black with a red outline. It had purple feet and shins that turned into black legs, as well as a dark purple belt and a cloth around her waist that was open at the front and an off-white color that faded to dark purple and it was ripped all around the bottom. Jessie was wearing silver-white gloves, each with a grey band on the wrist, while the rest of the glove, with three black buttons lining one side, bells outwards. There was a black pauldron on both of her shoulders, each attached to the coat she had by two straps. She also wore black pants and black, silver-lined, knee-high boots. The coat, which was black leather and red on the inside and lined with yellow, also had a large grey section that covered the lower half and shoulders of the coat. Upon closer inspection, the grey section looked to be attached by several small pins or buttons around the hip and neck sections of the coat, as well as by a belt that wrapped around the back and attached to the rim of the coat. This coat was high-collared and completely unzipped, showing the second, shorter jacket underneath. The second jacket was white and high-collared much like the outer coat. It was buttoned up and had the same strange symbol James had. Meowth, unlike them, had taken on a more frightening appearance. He was much larger than normal and he had been transformed into a ghost-like creature that appeared humanoid. He had a head that was oval shaped, with two long antennae near the top of his head on either side of a golden charm. He now had huge, yellow glowing eyes with a mouth full of sharp teeth. His torso had a heart-shaped hole in the middle, albeit smaller than the Dark Inferno's 'heart'. The torso went down and came to a tail-like point.

"Wow! Just imagine the kinds of chaos we can unleash with this!" Jessie said before she faced the heroes and said, "Meowth, give me a hand!" before Meowth got in front of her and they formed a field of blue energy and charged at the heroes before they could react, sending them flying.

"YES! FINALLY, TEAM ROCKET HAS A KEY TO VICTORY!" James shouted as the heroes got up.

"Let's make our getaway! Mime Jr, confuse them with Teeter Dance!" James said as he released a small mime-like Pokemon. It glowed blue as it did a hula-like dance.

Suddenly, everyone felt a strange urge as they too started to dance.

"What in the world?!" Wonder Woman asked as she started to dance.

"This is weird!" Violet said as she danced.

"I'm not sure whether to laugh or be bewildered." Eric said.

"Well, I can say I'll never let Bats here live this down!" Flash said as he laughed at Batman.

"Shut up." Batman said through gritted teeth.

"Hey, Zatanna, is there a chance you can fix this with your magic?!" Dash asked.

"I can try, but I don't know if I'll be able to wave my wand the right way." Zatanna said before she started waving her wand.

"Dancemus Stopicus!" she said. In a poof of smoke, everyone had stopped dancing. They looked around for any sign of Team Rocket or the Dark Inferno, but saw none of them in sight.

"Great, they got away!" Eric said.

"Your Highness, that Inferno creature, what exactly was it?" Superwoman asked.

"The Dark Inferno is a monstrosity of great power and pure evil. It is one of many types of a breed of monsters called the Heartless. The Heartless are beings drawn to and born out of the darkness inside people's hearts. As I said before, the Dark Inferno was born out of an incurred king's dark heart, which makes it extremely powerful. The stronger the darkness inside one's heart, the stronger the Heartless." Hippolyta said.

"Well, the important thing now is that we track down Team Rocket and the Dark Inferno and seal them back up." Mr. Incredible said.

"I'm afraid it won't be that simple. The Dark Inferno seems to have grown in strength over its years of imprisonment. It won't be resealed easy. Aside from that, your strength and weapons alone may not be enough." Hippolyta started before two warriors ran over.

"Hippolyta, two of the Ancient Weapons have been stolen!" one of them said. Hippolyta gasped.

Later, the Weapons Hall was discovered to be missing two swords. One seemed to have two blades on one hilt and the other one seemed to be like a crown.

"Those crooks!" Brock said.

"What were they?" Voyd asked.

"The Twinblade and Royalty Sword. These swords have been protected by us for many generations. They are very strong in durability and extremely dangerous. It is said that should anyone suffer an injury from the Twinblade, they run a high chance of suffering heavy bleeding or instant death. The Royalty Sword is said to grant the crown to any who wield it." Hippolyta said.

"Well, how can we fight them?" Elastigirl asked.

"Follow me." Hippolyta said as she led the heroes to some kind of temple shrine.
