Shadow Boy Part 5: Final Battle
by Martial Arts Master
Flint and all related characters copyrighted by Saban, Fox Kids, and Fox Family. I made up Shadow Boy and Bright Boy, though. Yes, you heard me, Bright Boy. This is the last chapter, and this features the appearance of Bright Boy. Now, let the story begin!

***

The next day, Shadow Boy was still meditating. Leafy-Master, who was probably Leafy by now, had been a surprisingly worthy opponent. But Shadow Boy still was not satisfied. He wanted a CHALLENGE. He wanted an opponent who he would really have to work hard to defeat.
But sadly, it was apparently not to be. None of the opponents Shadow Boy had fought was a big enough challenge to satisfy him.
He looked up and saw our heroes land their Time Cycle. So, they were back for more.
Leafy and Getalong seemed to be with them, too. Wait a minute...were Leafy and Getalong leaning toward each other?!
Shadow Boy smiled. Evidently Leafy and Talen had gotten romantically involved somewhere along the line. But that wasn't important now. Shadow Boy wanted a challenge, and he hoped our heroes had brought one this time.

Pteri called Dr. Goodman using the Time Cycle.
"Dr. Goodman, we need the secret weapon you finished!" he said.
"Ok, coming right up!" Dr. Goodman said.
Suddenly an egg that was pure white popped out of the Time Cycle's rear end.
"Let's de-fossilize him, son!" Rocky Hammerhead said.
"You got it, Dad!" Flint said, pressing the button. A beam of energy shot out of the red beacon on Rocky's head, de-fossilizing the egg.
The egg transformed into someone that looked exactly like Shadow Boy, except the armor was white instead of black like Shadow Boy's.
"I am Bright Boy," the white-armored boy said to Shadow Boy. Like Shadow Boy, Bright Boy's voice had the same weird echo to it.
"I control light, white energy, and basically everything white," Bright Boy continued.
"That sounds like the exact opposite of my powers!" Shadow Boy said, grinning. "Perhaps you are the worthy challenge I seek after all!"
"Go get 'em, Bright Boy!" Tony said.
Then the battle begun.
Bright Boy fired dozens of white energy bolts at Shadow Boy, but Shadow Boy created a black wall and blocked the bolts. Then the wall disappeared.
Shadow Boy surrounded himself with black energy, leaped into the air, and charged at Bright Boy like a comet.
Bright Boy, however, leaped up even HIGHER into the air, and managed to fly there thanks to using white energy created at his feet to act like rockets.
Shadow Boy passed harmlessly under Bright Boy, and Bright Boy stopped flying and dropped gently to the ground.
Bright Boy and Shadow Boy charged each other, and each of them had his right fist glowing with energy.
The two boys punched at each other with these energy fists, and the resulting explosion knocked both of them away from each other.
Bright Boy created a whip of white energy and tried to whip Shadow Boy with it.
Shadow Boy grabbed the energy whip and used it to toss Bright Boy into the air.
While Bright Boy was still in mid-air, Shadow Boy fired a ball of black energy at him.
Bright Boy turned around in mid-air and knocked the energy ball away with his fists.
Bright Boy landed and fired a huge white energy beam, and Shadow Boy fired a huge black energy beam.
The two beams connected, with neither boy doing any damage to the other.
Bright Boy leaped into the air and dived at Shadow Boy, one leg extended and that leg surrounded by white energy.
Shadow Boy sidestepped and let Bright Boy land on the ground, and then Shadow Boy created a black energy disc and threw it at Bright Boy, who sent a white energy disc out. The two discs cancelled each other out.
"Man, this is BORING!" Tony said. "Neither one has the upper hand."
"It could be worse," Sara said. "At least Shadow Boy doesn't have the upper hand."
"Maybe I should lend a hand!" Flint said, and he charged towards the battlefield where Bright Boy and Shadow Boy were fighting.
Bright Boy and Shadow Boy were slashing at each other with energy knives.
Finally, Flint bashed Shadow Boy over the head with his hammer while Shadow Boy was distracted.
This gave Bright Boy the opportunity he needed, and Bright Boy stabbed Shadow Boy with the white energy knife.
"NOOOOOOO!" Shadow Boy screamed, as he disintegrated into dust...

One month later...

Leafy and Getalong had gone back to the Land of Time to help the Old Timer run the Tapestry of Time.
It was Saturday, and Tony was playing a video game. Sara, meanwhile, was reading a book.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and an envelope slipped through the mail slot.
"I'll get it!" Dr. Goodman said, getting up from his chair and getting the envelope.
The enveloped had been mailed from the Land of Time.
Dr. Goodman frowned, wondering what the Old Timer could possibly have mailed to them.
He opened the envelope and a photograph fell out.
The photograph was a wedding picture of Leafy and Getalong...

The End

Ok, the final chapter's done. I hope that you enjoyed this story, and to that reviewer who said I should have had Leafy and Talen instead of Leafy and Getalong, if you wanted that couple you should have made a suggestion when I asked for one. I took the Leafy and Getalong suggestion because that was the ONLY suggestion I received. E-mail all questions and comments to bleifer@msn.com.
