Chapter 3: Return of the Shadow Usul! Ryo's Brave Sacrifice!
After her performance Chika took a bow as the pets clapped. The Gelert walked over to the others, "How was I?" She asked Dude sweetly. "Y-you were g-goo......." Dude started with a goofy look on his face and cheeks going red. "Um, I think he liked it....?" ZimDragon said while her brother giggled. GreenyDeMint laid his head on his paw and sighed. "It was ok....I guess," He replied looking in the opposite direction while the others continued to complement Chika on her singing talents. "Thanks," Chika smiled at the others before sitting down next to Dude and continuing to chat with the Neopets again. Warning had noticed the sky becoming a bit darker then usual, but even though it was about three o' clock it didn't seem anything to be alarmed about. She turned back to hear Dude bragging about defeating the Shadow Usul. "And then I was like 'POW' and 'BOOM' and then she was like sayin: 'ARRRRGH! Don't hurt me oh so powerful Shoyru who I dread and fear and should be named the best Shoyru in the world! Even better than Shoyruki and--' " Dude was interrupted by a knock on the head by the striped Shoyru near him. "Get on with it, will ya?" Shoyruki snapped at him. "Ouch...okaaaaaaaay....So anyway...." He started his tale again while the others listened attentively (A/N: Well...maybe not THAT attentively... -.-;). Dude's victory had proved the Shadow Usul's defeat to the others and himself, but near the forest there still stood a faint shadow. It's eye's glowed a dark red as it clutched the tree beside it. The shadow plotted it's revenge for the unknowing neopets as it watched them from the woods. She stood under the tree so to stay in the darkness until it was after sunset when the Shadow Usul could attack. Meanwhile, Dude's story was completed and another tale was being told....Spike shivered as he awaited the ending of his sister's ghost story. "T-t-hen what?" The Starry Zafara asked. "Then...the boy could hear the creature approaching..." ZimDragon hung over the pets as she told the tale. "It came to end of the wall and was about to turn on the boy...and then....AHHHHHHH!" ZimDragon screamed at the top of her lungs, everyone flinched and yelled expect for Warning who didn't move a muscle. "What? That's it? 'AHHHHHHH'?" She asked. "Yep," "That's a pretty bad ending...why doesn't it end with something like: 'And the monster ate him....THE END'?" "It's supposed to scare you with the scream and then you scream and then...yea... you get it?" "Not really...." Warning turned her head away from them as Dragonite decided to tell a story of his own. Something had caught her eye, the Lupe's ears pointed up as she sniffed the air. "What's...that?" She leaned closer to the ground and squinted her eyes. "Hey....Warning....hello?" Kira fluttered her wings slightly as she turned her head to one side and seeing Warning not paying attention. The Green Lupe ignored the neopet behind her and kept trying to figure out what the shadow was. "Hey....." Kira snuck up next to her...."HELLO?!?!?!?!" She yelled in Warning's ear. The scared Lupe leaped up in shock before tumbling down and landing on the ground with a thump, "HIIIIIIII! ....er...HEY! What'd you do that for?!" The Faerie Lupe grinned, "I had to, you were staring off into space..." She swung her head back to see that Dragonite was almost done his story. Warning made an annoyed sound before peering slightly back to where she had saw the shadow, she could see it more clearly now.
Ryo and Chika both sat next to each other cheerfully talking. "Yea, that's my favorite part too!" Chika smiled at the Christmas Gelert, they had just started to talk a while ago and became fast friends. Ryo smiled back as she continued the conversation, "Yea, that was sooo funny also and then they were all like looking weird and stuff then they were all like this and..." Ryo made tired face with a sweatdrop (-_-;). "Um....I forgot that part?" Chika laughed a little while sweatdropping herself. "And that was the end of the ants!" Dragonite concluded smiling and almost bursting out into laughter. Kylii face faulted, "Dat was disgusting!" "Yea, gross..." Spelling agreed. "Well I dwought dat wit twas wery gwood and I wiked wit wery wuch w-and....w-and..wit twas wery werid-wish...." Spike stated. "Whaaaaaaat?!" All the neopets asked at the same time. "Nwothing...." Spike sighed. As the Neopets talked the sun sunk in the distance and the sky became a light pinkish color, "It's almost time..." (A/N: BUM BUM BUUUM! xD)
~~~
Ryo and Chika sat and stared at the sunset, they talked while a certain Shoyru wished it was him instead of Ryo sitting next to Chika. "Good day, wasn't it?" Chika asked, her eyes glued on the setting sun. "Yea, thanks for coming here, it's been really fun, are you going to stay for a while?" Ryo asked. Chika nodded, "Yes, for a little while longer, I really enjoy it here and would like to stay, it's a lot different from home," "Where do you live anyway?" "Well, my family's very rich and we live in a very big mansion, it's quite nice but I still think it's nicer out here," Chika concluded, the sun was disappearing in the distance and darkness started to envelop all the Neopets on the hill. The others laid around on the hill top, viewing the sunset as Ryo and Chika were. The shadow Usul in the woods had been waiting for this moment, "Humph, the little pets shouldn't be out at this hour anyway," She smirked at her comment and prepared to move out. "Well," Spelling started, "We should go home pretty soon, it's getting dark," "Awwww," The others whined. "Just a little bit Spelling?" Kylii asked with innocent eyes. "Uh...okay..." Spelling sighed. "May--Maybe we could play flashlight tag!" Kylii said in an excited manner. "WEAH!" Spike leaped up in the air, "Lwet's pwlay!" All the neopets agreed to the little one's decision. "But...we kind of...need a flashlight..." Dratini informed them with a sad expression. "THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR....!" Greeny started, the others stared and sweatdropped, "Erm, sorry I've been watching to much Cartoon Network," "I HAVE ONE!" Said an enthusiastic Chika, she pulled a short gray flashlight from her pocket, "Hey, I have to be prepared," Dude grinned in her direction. "Ok then...YOUR IT!" Dude kept his goofy smile as he leaned over to tag Chika. She laughed and raced after him as the last ray of light faded away in the sky... The shadow's eyes glowed as bright as blood, it approached the hill with slight caution as it watched the pets run around in the darkness. The figured laughed as it crept closer to them. Lutra cried as she was chased by Kira down the side of the hill, even she was playing tag with the others. The darkness swept towards her as she ran, breathing heavily. Lutra felt something pull at her left leg; she fell to her knees and was dragged across the grass as she screamed cries for help. "AHHHHH! HELP ME!" The green Kacheek cried out to the others playing on the hill. The Christmas Lupe heard the screams from were she was and leaped towards the commotion. "I knew there was something wrong," She jumped over the edge of the hill and landed on the other side were Lutra was being attacked. "GET OFF ME!" She yelled with tears in her eyes, Chika came tumbling down the top of the hill. "Lutra!" The princess screamed in terror as Ryo came running after her, followed by Dude flying above next to Dragonite, Greeny and Shoyruki. Spike, ZimDragon and Kylii stayed back with Dratini, Spelling and Zim. "Let her go you beast!" Warning howled at the creature and flung her paw at it. Her whole arm went straight through the Usul as she fell forward, taking an impact on her shoulder. The Green Lupe growled as her fur sprung up on her back, preparing to attack again. Ryo ran towards the dark figure as she opened her mouth, trying to bite the thing, like Warning's attempt it didn't work. "Come ON! Work already!" Ryo cried after landing straight on her face. The Shoyru all dove down at the figure, it's arm still gripped Lutra's sore leg. "What's happening?" Shoyruki whined once she had passed through the Usul and had quickly floated to the ground with the others. Dude had been the only Shoyru to succeed in the attack, his fist was planted in the Usul's right cheek. A bead of sweat dripped off his face as he quickly removed his fist and started to punch rapidly at her. Lutra yelped as she was pulled back and forth; the Usul dodged almost every blow Dude threw at her. The green Kacheek was also not going to give up, she kicked frequently at the Usul above her while trying to attack with all her strength. The Shadow Usul ignored the blows that simply went thorough her arm as she concentrated on the Desert Shoyru in front of her. The Usul lunged out and hit Dude hard in the stomach, he winced in pain and missed the next couple of shots he took. "Oh..." Chika worried, "I hope he'll be ok," Shoyruki watched Dude fight, "Why can't we fight the Usul and HE can," She asked annoyingly. "I'm not sure," Warning answered, "I thought Dude had killed the Usul...but, anyway...we might as well not waste our energy trying to help him, we'll just fail to land any punches," "But, we have to help him somehow," Chika's eyes started to water as she wished she could do something to help the Shoyru. Ryo crouched while looking straight at the Usul, full of rage herself she stood up and said to Chika, "I'll help," The Christmas Gelert was slightly fearful but wanted to kill the Shadow Usul just as much as Dude did. "Don't try too!" Greeny called to her, "It just won't work," Ryo turned her head to look back at them as a strong wind started to make her ears sway, "I can always try," She stated stubbornly before taking one final leap in the direction of the three battling neopets. Ryo ran toward the Usul with fire in her eyes, she jumped in the air and dove on the Usul. Unlike the last attack Ryo had surprisingly knocked her down. Dude stopped to catch his breathe and take in what just happened, he dropped to one knee as he looked upon the fighters. Ryo swung her claws in all different directions, almost hitting Lutra which was still in the hands of the Shadow Usul. Ryo decided to finally get Lutra out of the fight, she bite the shadow's arm and lifted it in the air. The Usul squealed as she flung Lutra about ten feet away. "AHHHH!" Lutra screamed before crashing near the other neopets. "Lutra!" Chika came running to her to tend to the Green Kacheek's wounds, "...Please be ok..." The Shadow Usul whimpered at her penetrated arm but still tried to gain the power in the fight, it saw that the Desert Shoyru was almost ready to attack and quickly decided to use one final attack. Her body glowed as black as the night around her, the shape's red eyes returned, Ryo backed slightly away off the shadow neopet in fear of being hit. All of a sudden a blot of lightning appeared from out of the sky, no rain, just a blot of lightning and a cracking sound. It struck the ground with force behind them as the others jumped in surprise.
"Do you think they're ok?" ZimDragon asked as she huddled closer to her brother and mother. "I don't know, but I hope they are," Zim answered with worry in her eyes. Spike closed his eyes, fearful of the flash of light that had come, and shuddering he curled up into a tight ball. Ryo was scared herself as her fearful eyes fell upon the Usul's glowing body, it grinned evilly and took a single step toward her. "W--what's happening?" Ryo cowered and fell back closer to the ground. "I hope you want that to be the last thing you ever say..." the Usul had already grown over ten times her size and could even be seen by the neopets hiding behind the hill. The Christmas Gelert whimpered as she closed her eyes tight, at that moment the giant Usul sent a powerful blow of lightning into Ryo's body. The black lightning forced Ryo's body to fly backwards in the air as the others watched in fear. Ryo's eyes opened wide as she took her final breath...
