Now on with the chapter....
(Scene changes to Dane walking with the Powerpuff Girls and the monsters.
He kept his gaze ahead of him. He still believed that they weren't trusting
him. He couldn't blame him....but he was still blaming himself for actually
agreeing to the whole thing of kidnapping Shakti. He knew that she was
bad news at times, but she wasn't *that* bad! He kept his tail arched upwards
to avoid hitting anyone. Because people now knew of the Demon Dogs, he
had to wear something over his eyes. The girls would pass him off as a
blind dog using his sense of smell to get around. He wear a black leather
bandana, tied around his eyes. A few tiny holes were poked in them, large
enough to see through yet small enough so that his red eyes go unnoticed.
He shifted his gaze towards the girls, to make sure they were following.)
(He looked back and walked on. Buttercup wasn't enjoying all this follow
the leader thing. She believed that perhaps Dane was trying to trick them.
But if he had...then why would he try to get Shakti out..if he's even going
to try? Bubbles glared at him, but also believed that the Great Dane would
indeed help them...and she was going to take that chance.)
Bubbles: How much further is it? (She gazes around as she sees the park ahead and a few buildings that they had to pass through. Dane turns towards her, and stopped in his tracks.)
Dane: Not much further. But keep your eyes peeled...There's a chance they've figured out I betrayed them.
Buttercup: Thanks for the warning! (Blossom folds her arms and glares at her sister.)
Blossom: Buttercup! At least he's helping!
(Buttercup glares at her sister. She still didn't want to follow Dane, who might be leading them right into some kind of ambush. She looked ahead at the white and black Great Dane with mixed thoughts running through her mind. Should she trust this dog? What other choice did she have? Was this a wrong choice? She walked along side Salvador, the same look frozen on his face. Dane paid no heed to them as he looked back. He was too busy leading them towards the area of where Shakti was being held prisoner. He just didn't know for how long he could hold off the others while Shakti was freed.)
(They continued to walk down the path, stained with blood. Dane snarled as he sniffed the ground. His ears folded back against his skull. Blossom carefully walked over to him, and looked at the ground. She gasped at what she saw. A small trail of blood, leading towards the holding area. The Great Dane's eyes glinted in anger. He knew something was about to happen.)
(Scene changes inside the cave. Siber is looking at a group of 4 mean-looking dogs. They are all black and white Dobermans. Siber was non too happy. One of her best henchman...well Ciara's henchmen...had turned against them.)
Siber: We will make Dane pay for his treachery! (Her voice was low and
hissing. She shifted her gaze towards Shakti.) Hmmm... (smiles evilly)
I know they'll be coming for her. (points a paw in Shakti's direction)
Guard her.
(The Chow Chow nodded, who was standing in front of her at the time. The dog dashed towards the cage, and sat next to it. A glowing red eye never left her collapsed form, and his teeth flashed against his black fur. Siber growled, and looked in the direction of the cave entrance. Her ears perked up directly, then folded against her skull. She walked up towards another dog, a Pitbull by the name of Rival, who has black with white speckles, and roughly shoved him to the side. Rival's gaze held one of confusion, but he froze in his path when Siber turned towards him with those light red eyes which looked like they could burn right through the soul, and not with just fire. The eyes squinted into slits, and the fangs were beared, sparkling against the little light they had in the cave. Rival immediately sat down and lifted up one of his paws and placed it across his head. It was like a soldier soluting to his General. He was showing respect, but he knew she wasn't in the mood. He took a risk...)
(Siber glared at him, and lifted up one of her own paws. She slashed down, and the dog yelped in pain. Her claws dug into his neck, just barely missing his vocal cords and vital blood vessels, and then she thrusted downward, her claws leaving 3 deep and bloody gashes extending from Rival's chin all the way down to just halfway down his chest. He whimpered in pain as he watched his own blood staining the ground floor of the dark cave, and he looked up at Siber in fear.)
Siber: (growl) You know very well not to interrupt me when I'm.... (stops)
Oh nevermind! Just go in the back and get yourself cleaned up.
(Rival had a confused look on his face. This wasn't like Siber. She was known to kill any dogs who...seemed to bug her. Ciara was the only exception. He scratched his head a bit, and attempted to talk, but could only make a few sounds.)
Rival: Wh----wh---- (He couldn't finish.)
Siber: (bursting out loud) JUST GO ALREADY!!!!!! (She quiets down, but a warning glare remained in her light red eyes.) Go...before I change my mind.
(Rival shook in fear, but abided and ran off to the back of the cave.
They had a dog there, another Siberian Husky, trained in treating minor
wounds and such. This other dog, named Nurse, would be able to help Rival
recover from his injury. What Siber had done was harsh and rough, but it
wasn't not an uncommon sight to see. He's just lucky she didn't rip his
own beating heart out. She had done that before, and ate it even. That
grossed out even the strongest dogs, but she only did it once.)
(Siber turned her gaze to another dog. He looked tall and buff, strongly
built. A Boxer, she presumed, noticing the extending lower jaw. She also
noticed that, during the transformation process, his two lower canines
had grown a tad bigger, now looking like spikes rather than fangs. She
smiled darkly, and called to him. The Boxer turned towards the call, and
walked over.)
Boxer: Yes, what is it?
(He sat down in front of Siber. He was bigger, but not stronger, that's
for sure. He was completely black with bright red eyes. Okay, well, he
wasn't all black...He had a patch of white on one of his legs. He was called
Whitespot because of it. The only white he had one him was a round spot
of whitish fur no bigger than a dime that was on his left hind leg. Whitespot's
eyes darkned as he awaited commands from Siber, second in command. He didn't
solute her, but he did keep a stiff upper lip, and a stern face was locked
on his head. His shoulder muscles tensed up to show that he meant business.)
Siber: (smiling darkly) I want you to give our visitors....a little surprise...and (She points towards the 4 Dobermans) take them with you.
(Scene change to just a few feet from the cave entrance. Dane had stopped
walking, and his short white fur tensed up. His ears perked straight up...even
though they're always up...and picked up some sound waves. Buttercup, her
arms folded, glared at him as he did this. The white dog looked from left
to right, as if trying to see if the Demon Dogs were launching an attack
from the sidelines. He looked at the cave entrance, and narrowed his bright
red eyes, and tried to get a closer look inside the cave from this safe
distance. Well....it wasn't going to be safe for long, he knew...)
Dane: We'll have to prepare to attack.
Buttercup: WHAT?! I thought you said we could avoid combat!
Blossom: Buttercup! He said "could avoid". He never guaranteed it. (She gets a curious look on her face.) And I thought you enjoyed combat! What..getting yellow-bellied now?!
Buttercup: (enraged) I do! It's just that....(She gives a harsh glare at Dane.) Why should we even trust him?
(Salvador walked towards her, his head hung low. His emerald eyes were know sparkling with the tears that covered them. Tears streamed down his pink fur and stained it. The tears caused it to look like his fur was sparkling like snow in the wintertime. Buttercup's enraged look softened a bit as she watched her monster partner nuzzle against her side. The feel of his soft and scarred fur was almost enough to soothe her. Salvador, in his spanish accent, spoke to her calmly and seriously.)
Salvador: (sadly) We don't have a choice, Buttercup. He wants to help...but
we won't know if he's really changed unless we give him a change.
(Buttercup stares at Salvador as he looked up at her, his eyes watering
a bit. She looks to the ground, then looks back at Dane, who was looking
at her through bright red eyes. He was anticipating her response to what
the pink monster had just said. One part of Buttercup wanted to trust Dane,
since he was their only chance at getting Shakti back. But the other side
told her not to believe him, just attack him. Caught between her two sides,
she collapses to her knees in confusion. She holds her head tightly, and
cries out, confused. Dane's eyes snapped wide open at this display.)
Dane: What's wrong?
Buttercup: (whimper) I don't know who to believe!
(Sandra's ears folded back in sadness.)
Sandra: Trust in what you believe.
Blossom: Yeah....we can trust Dane. So could you...
Buttercup: I could...?
(Dane walks over to her. His tall ears had managed to lower, showing
his docile side. Most Demon Dogs would never show mercy, but this Great
Dane was not that kind of Demon Dog. He no longer felt like the others,
and lowered his head and nudged the Powerpuff gently. Suddenly, he smelled
something in the air. He raised up his head quickly and looked in the direction
of the cave. He narrowed his eyes so he could try and get a better view
at whoever was coming at them. 5 dark figures were walking towards them.
Their red eyes shown a path of red light in their direction, causing their
bodies to look kind of reddish. Dane took position, while Sandra's eyes
dialated and Salvador's fur stood on end to make him look tougher. The
Powerpuff Girls also took their fighting stances, and prepared for whatever
was coming towards them.)
(As the figures gotten closer, Dane could make out that they were Demon
Dogs. He made out that one of them was a Boxer of some kind. As he looked
as hard as he could, he made out a small white spot. Whitespot! Dane looked
towards the other 4 dogs, who could only be Dobermans. Normal Dobermans
had reddish brown fur along with their black fur...but these dogs had white
replacing the areas of brown. Their ears folded back against their skulls.
Dane did so in response. He knew what they were up against...)
Dane: Whitespot! (Whitespot dashed towards the dog, and stopped right in front of him. The other four dogs stopped right where they were, and waited for their orders to attack.)
Whitespot: (angrily) Hello...traitor.
Oh, oh, oh
Take the path of least resistance
To the great unknown
No directory assistance
Now you're on your own
If you're looking for a new world
Just open up your eyes
(Whitespot surveyed Dane from head to toe, and was judging his strength. Experienced fighters sometimes could judge eachother's strength just by staring at one another. Dane never let his red eyes leave the moving dog's body. He didn't want to take any chances of having a sudden attack. Buttercup and Salvador started to rush up, but Blossom and Sandra held them back, saying that they could not attack right away. There were other dogs they needed to worry about, and if they stayed focused on just one dog, another could easily attack from behind.)
(Bubbles stayed behind as the others went up. She eyed the cave, and only one word came to mind: Shakti. Her eyes watered up a bit again, and she rubbed her eye with her arm. She wanted Shakti back so badly....but they had to get past these dogs first. And she knew they also had to fight Robin, who had called herself Siber now. Bubbles still could not understand how Robin could turn on them like this. Couldn't she understand that what she was doing is wrong?! Couldn't she see that Shakti had changed?! Apparently not, and they may have no choice but to...kill her.)
Because it's not quite paradise
But it sure feels like home
Not quite paradise
We can rent to own
It'll be all right
No it's not quite paradise
Bubbles: (sniffling) I hope we don't have to do that....
(Whitespot hesitated no more, and lunged forward, knocking Dane into the ground! The other dogs nodded to each other, and rushed downwards, their fangs exposed. Salvador and Buttercup smiled at each other, and waited for one of the Dobermans to reach them. Another Doberman was headed their way, and their plans had to change. They grabbed each other's "hands", and just as the two dogs were upon them, they leapt into the air and swung around in a circle! Their legs collided into an opposite dog in the chest. The Doberman's eyes went wide in shock, and they fell to the ground, each one letting out a cry of pain.)
(Blossom tackled one of the Dobermans and wrestled with it. The remaining
Doberman had his eyes set on Sandra, and pushed her into the ground. She
whimpered a bit, but she wasn't down for long. At lightning speed, she
lifted up her four clawed foot, and struck as hard as she could into the
dog's underside. Her claws poked right through the animal's chest, and
sliced into one of his lungs. The dog's red eyes snapped open in pain,
and he yelped. He jumped back, releasing Sandra from his grip. He walked
backwards wearily, blood flooding from his chest. His breathing became
scratchy, and fell down to the ground. His body hardened, and disappeared.)
Whitespot: (struggling to keep Dane pinned) You should've stayed with us, Dane! Why go over to their side? They're nothing but weaklings! WEAKLINGS!
Tomorrow's an illusion
Yesterday's a dream
Today is a solution
But you've got to learn to breathe
If you're looking for the answer
It's right before your eyes
(Dane looks up angrily at his former friend.)
Dane: I just don't agree with all this!
(He gathered all the strength he had within up, and pushed his head upwards, and pushed Whitespot back a bit. He opened up his massive jaws, and sank his teeth into the Boxer's leg. His jaws gripped so tightly on the dog that he could feel the bones started to crack and the muscles splitting up. Dane pulled back as fast as he could, and tore out a huge chunk of Whitespot's flesh. He howled in pain, and shook his head. He stared in shock at his gaping wound. The bones were clearly visible, and he could see the snapped muscles and blood vessels. Blood poured out the wound and stained the grass below him. His eyes registered a look of disgust first, then to rage. He looked back at Dane, who was licking one of his own wounds.)
Whitespot: (growling) You think you've won? This is only the beginning!
Although it's not quite paradise
But it sure looks like home
Not quite paradise
We are not alone
It'll be all right though
It's not quite paradise
(Whitespot crawls back onto his legs and, despite the injury, runs toward
Dane yet again. The Great Dane barely has time to react as the Boxer opened
up his own jaws, and sank his teeth into the Great Dane's own leg, causing
the rest of his body to buckle underneath him, and collapses onto the ground.
He yelped, and lifted up his free paw and strikes into Whitespot's side,
but the Boxer doesn't seem to be losing his endurance, and hangs on. Dane
knew this was getting serious. He had to make this dog let go of him! But
how....when he doesn't seem to be affected at all? Dane swallowed, and
hoped his next strike would work. He swung again, this time slapping the
dog's gaping injury.)
(Whitespot's eyes shot open, and tears started to form. Tears of pain.....He lifted up his head and closed his eyes tightly. He gave out a loud scream of pain. This gave Dane the opportunity to strike his head against the Boxer's chest, and push him off of him. Whitespot swung his head left to right, clutching his injury with his good paw. Furious, he punches the Great Dane in the chest almost twice as hard as the white dog had struck him, and Dane felt his chest spasm as a bit of blood started to pour out of his mouth.)
(Blossom and Sandra perked their heads up as they saw Dane slumped to the ground, both paws on his chest, and they could see all the blood coming out of his mouth. Gasps of shock escaped their mouths, and they started to run towards the Great Dane. But Whitespot growled, and gripped the dog tightly, squeezing his neck so tightly he was gasping for air. The Boxer then lifted up his free paw and held it against the dog's eyes. Blossom and Sandra stop in their tracks, and they ceased to move. They knew if they had moved, Whitespot would kill Dane....their only chance at saving Shakti.)
Somewhere from the edge of time
When the poets die
The words don't rhyme
I'll call you up and say
We made it okay
Somewhere in the back of your mind
Whitespot: Come any closer....and I will kill him......
(He moves his claws closer to Dane's face, extending the claws longer than normal. They glinted in the sunlight, and an evil grin found its way across the dog's face. He had boxed them into a corner...like a natural Boxer!)
(It didn't take long for Salvador and Buttercup to finish off the 2
other Dobermans. They were about to consult their leader so they could
get a move on, but then they saw that Dane was being restrained by Whitespot,
and Sandra and Blossom were frozen in terror. Bubbbles turned to see this
too, and also wear a mask of horror. Salvador whined a bit, and Buttercup
gritted her teeth. Of all the times for this to happen!)
Buttercup: (shouting) Hey you! (Whitespot turns to her.) Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?!
Whitespot: Like....you?
Buttercup: (realizing what she had done) Ooops....
When you see your demons come to life
And the world just fades away
You'll know it's okay
Oh, oh oh
It's gonna be okay
Oh, oh oh
(At almost lightning speed, Whitespot lets Dane go, and launches himself at the floating Powerpuff Girl. She ceases to react to get out of the way, and Whitespot slams into her. They crash into the ground, and the dog opens up his jaws and snaps shut around Buttercup's body. She screams in pain as the fangs of the dog sink into her abdomen, drawing blood and other stuff out. He begins to squeeze harder, and Salvador begins to grow very angry.)
(Arching himself, he straighted up the fur on this back. They bristled
a bit, and straighted completely up. His eyes dialated so fast, that this
pupils were almost invisible. Whitespot sensed that something was about
to happen, and turned his attention towards the mammal. Salvador had dug
his claws into the dirt, leaving thin lines across the ground. He snarled
viciously, and opened up his mouth and said something in a loud roaring-like
voice.)
Salvador: FUR...TACKLE!!!!
(The hairs on his back glistened once, and then sprayed out like a porcupine spraying its needles. The hairs, now needles, sailed across the air. Lots of them...like hundreds even thousands, were launched in a sea of needles, and they all struck Whitespot in the face. He yowled in shock and pain as he staggered backwards. The needles had burrowed themselves into his muzzle, nose, and forehead. They missed his eyes, but not by much. A few had gotten onto his legs, chest, and neck. He staggered more, and fell to the ground. His breathing slowed down to the point where it had stopped....and he vanished into thin air.)
But it's not quite paradise
But it sure feels like home
Not quite paradise
Make this place our own
Not quite paradise
We can rent to own
(The area became very quiet all of a sudden. They had won, but now two of them were badly injured. They didn't know if they should continue on, or just wait until the injured have healed. What should they do now? Bubbles walked over to her sister, tears in her eyes. Bloody holes were visible on her body, blood pouring out of them. She wasn't losing as much blood as one would thought she was...but she still didn't look so good.)
Not quite paradise
We don't have to be alone
Not quite paradise
Bubbles: (tearfully) Buttercup...?
(Dane was injured yes, but he seemed far better off that Buttercup was.
He was able to climb to his feet, despite the bad chest and leg injuries.
He scanned the area, and was just as equally shocked to see Buttercup laying
in a pool of her own blood. His ears folded back in sorrow. He hadn't known
the girls for long....so he could not understand why he was feeling this
emotion towards the green girl. His eyes narrowed in depression, but then
he smelled that Siber was nearby. He quickly shot up in defensive mode,
snarling, and looking from side to side.)
Blossom: (confused) What? What is it Dane?
Dane: (growling) Siber.
(Blossom gasped, and waited in worry for the demonic dog to show up.
Dane looked around, and the forest seemed to spin around him as he waited.
He growled, and then heard a twig snap. He swerved himself in that direction,
and saw the shadow of a Siberian Husky standing there. It was no mistaking
that it was Siber, for her light red eyes shown throw the darkness of the
trees and brush. Siber's white teeth flashed against her mouth as she stepped
out of the foliage. She walked up towards the Great Dane, and stopped a
good 5 ft from him. She looked him over, and scoffed. She gazed upon the
girls and their 2 monsters. An evil smile spread across her muzzle. Dane
positioned himself in front of her, awaiting an attack or something. She
turned to Dane, and started to speak. Her voice was very dark and cold.....sending
chills up the dog's body.)
Well I fought for you
I fought too hard
To do it all again, babe
Its gone to far
You never needed me
You only wanted me around
It gets me down
Siber: I am very disappointed in you, Dane. You were supposed to....
Dane: (yelling) SUPPOSED TO WHAT?! STAND HERE AND LET YOU DO SOMETHING SO DRASTIC?!
(Siber narrowed her eyes in disgust. It really disgusted her that one of her best henchmen would defect and actually help these guys. They didn't deserve sympathy...They deserved to die! They betrayed her....so why help them?)
There's been a change
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
Made it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
Siber: You're questioning my orders, Dane?
Dane: You're downright certain I am!
I'll get over you
It won't take long
I've stood in your gallery
Seen what's hangin' from the wall
You were the moon and sun
You're just a loaded gun now
It gets me down
(Siber shook her head slightly. She took a few steps closer, and Dane took a few steps back. Surely, he couldn't be this afraid...she thought....Why was he moving back? She scanned him once more, and found a bruise on his chest, and a bite wound on one of his legs. So this was the reason. Siber had an unfair advantage. Dane knew this well, and didn't want to have to fight with Siber.)
(Siber moved back and forth around the dog. She was almost taunting
him....daring him to make a move.)
Siber: You choose to protect them, yet you didn't make a move to attack me. Just goes to show you how pathetic of a guardian you are!
Dane: You wouldn't know....
There's been a change
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
Siber: Oh, I know alright....You're too weak to protect them.
(She lifts her paw, and slashes Dane's shoulder, making the Great Dane howl with pain on his mind. Siber smiles darkly as she pulls her claws back, a few blood vessel bits and blood stained all over them. Blood dripped down Dane's shoulder, and the dog winced.)
Whoa yeah, oh boy
Looks like we finally reached the turning point
Oh me, oh my
Looks like its time for me to kiss it good-bye
Yeah kiss it good-bye
(Now Bubbles was really mad. Not caring of the mistake she was about
to make, she dashed towards her former friend. She no longer cared that
this was Robin. She was no longer Robin...now she was Siber...a heartless
monster! Bubbles brought out her arm, and was able to punch the Siberian
Husky aside. Dane's ears perked up in surprise. The blue Powerpuff landed
on the ground next to the white Demon Dog, snarling at the fallen black
one. Siber struggled to her feet, her light red eyes registered with surprise
and mere shock.)
Bubbles: That's it, Siber! I don't care if you are Robin. You can't treat anyone like that!
Siber: (glaring) Don't call me Robin...and what makes you think you can tell me how to treat my henchmen...especially former ones?
Bubbles: That doesn't matter, and it's none of your business! Just give us back Shakti!
(Siber snarled. She didn't want to give in to this child, so she lunged towards her. The girl looked shocked, and didn't have time to move as the dog swiped her paw down, nearly missing her by a hair. Bubbles backed up as the dog struck again, and missing again. Sandra's ears perked up in shock, and she flew over. Using her tail, she swiped Siber back into the ground, and gave Bubbles enough time to slip past the dog and into the cave....)
There's been a change
yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
Sandra: Good luck kid! (turning back to Siber) Now for you....
(Scene changes to the cave. Bubbles walks in, and looks around. All of the dogs seem to be asleep..including the one guarding Shakti. Ciara had take position on front of her cage. But like everyone else, he grew bored, and decided to take a nap. Bubbles tiptoed towards the cage, and looked inside. The dinosaur wasn't too badly injured, just a bit of cuts and scrapes....She was determined to free her! She looks at the cage door, and found it locked with a titanium steel lock. Leave it to Siber to make things trickier....)
(But then she remembered she had super powers. Holding her breath, she unleashes a medium heat eye laser, and concentrated on one part of the cage. The metal grew hotter...and then melted down. With a lightning swift punch, she knocked open a hole in the metal barred cage. She flew inside and nudged Shakti. She wanted to squeeze her tightly....she missed her so badly, but now wasn't the time.)
(Shakti slowly opened her eyes, and looked in front of her. She could
not believe who it was.)
Shakti: Bubbles! You made it...but how...?
Bubbles: (smiles) Dane helped us.
Shakti: (narrowing her eyes) Dane..helped you? But I thought he worked for Siber!
Bubbles: Not anymore.
(Suddenly they heard a loud explosion coming from outside the cave. It was a surprise that none of the dogs had wakened up, but it did shake the howl area. Shakti gasped and grabbed Bubbles. They ran outside of the cave, and stopped in their tracks. The scene they were witnessing was quite horrific.)
(Salvador was laying on his back, blood streaming out from his mouth.
His claws were a bit chipped, and some of his fur was ripped out. Bloody
gashes covered his side. Sandra's spikes..all of them..had been ripped
out, leaving bloody holes. A single gash was across her chest, and one
of her arms was almost torn off. The other girls weren't too bad off, but
they had been knocked out cold by Siber. Bubbles and Shakti watched in
horror as Dane, the only one still standing, wrestle with Siber.)
Bubbles: (eyeing what had happened to her friends) NO!
Shakti: I don't believe it....
(Siber and Dane stop their quarrel, and look towards the source of the voices. Siber's eyes registered with hatred, and shock.)
Siber: You!
(She tackles Shakti. The dinosaur slashes her claws into Siber's side, and struggled to her feet. Siber looks at her wounds, and glares back at the dinosaur. Her ears folded so far back they looked like they were going to rip off. Bubbles ran towards Dane, looking at him through worried eyes.)
Dane: (strained) She was...too strong....
Bubbles: B-b-b-but...you can't just give up!
(Siber and Shakti conducted in a rolling contest. First Siber was on top, then Shakti, then Siber....then Shakti again. Siber opened up her mouth and snapped down onto Shakti's leg, tearing out even more flesh. Shakti shook herself, and grabbed the Siberian Husky's tail, swinging her around in circles and throwing her into a tree. Siber looked dizzy for a moment, but came back to her senses. She decided to give Shakti a taste of her own medicine, and repeated what the monster had done earlier, throwing her into a tree as well.)
Siber: (taunting) Is this what you've been reduced to, Shakti? A weakling protecting weakling friends? You're no better than Dane!
(Shakti struggles to her feet, but Siber hits her again. She slides across the floor, the ground becoming stained with her red blood. She yelped again, and looks at Siber with fear in her eyes. Siber couldn't help but smile triumphantly as she watched her killer on the ground, weakened.)
Siber: How does it feel now....killer? How does it feel being killed by one of your own...victims? How does it feel?!
Shakti: I'm not a killer....
Siber: Yes you are! You murdered me!!
Shakti: Please...I wasn't under my own control at the time...
Siber: LIAR!!
(She sinks her teeth into Shakti's neck. Blood poured out from the bite
wound. Shakti's eyes snapped wide open.)
Shakti: AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! (She closes her eyes, not wanting to look down. She could feel the dog's teeth sink deeper into her flesh, almost touching her neck bones.)
Bubbles: (swirving around) SHAKTI!! NO!
(Dane is now on his feet. His eyes looked on in horror as he watched the victim start to kill the culprit. This wasn't fair..this wasn't how it was supposed to be. Dane closed his eyes tightly, and reopened them, anger filled in them. His whole body was shaking. He didn't want this to happen...He didn't want any one else to die! He let out a loud howl. Siber released her grip on the dino to look at what was going on. The howl grew louder and louder.....She had to plug her ears. Shakti couldn't move to well....and watched as the howl seemed to echo all across the universe. The sky thunderclapped and opened up, a large white beam of light shooting downwards.)
(Dane had a wild look in his eyes, and his mouth was opened in mid-howl. His fangs were shown, and he snarled, his eyes widening in anger, as the light bathed across his body. Shakti, Bubbles, and Siber shielded their eyes. The light grew so intense....Blossom, Buttercup, Sandra, and Salvador moaned as they awoke from their deathly slumber. They instantly turned their heads away as they saw the bright white light shining across the arena.)
Salvador: (in pain) What's...going on?
Sandra: (in pain) I don't know!
(The light started to die down. It got dim enough that everyone could reopen their eyes and look at where the light used to be. Dane was still standing there...looking like he always does...But his fur was sparkling. The sparkles swirled around him, and he felt himself...changing. His black fur glowed and began to lighten to a chocolate brown. His claws shimmered, and became a gold color. The redness of his ears turned to pink, and his color became dark purple with light gray spikes. The last metamorphasis was his eyes. They started to change color....The red eyes flickered, and most instantly turned to blue...the same shade of blue as Shakti's eyes. The transformation was complete!)
Siber: What the.....?
(The new Dane let out a mighty roar. It sounded a bit different...almost
holy. His now blue eyes glared at Siber. His wounds healed up, and he arched
his body for an attack. Siber glared in anticipation, and growled. She
couldn't believe that Dane had converted....but into what? She could only
think of one thing that might have happened...His desire to protect Shakti
and the others had turned him into a....)
Siber: Angel Dog!
Dane: (smiles) Glad you noticed...Now let's see how an angel handles
a demon.
(Shakti was surprised when Siber had said 'Angel Dog'. She had heard stories while captured, and yet she didn't think the Angel Dog thing could be possible. But now she had seen proof...and she couldn't feel more shocked about what had happened. Bubbles noticed her look, and nudged her. Shakti looked down at the girl.)
Shakti: What is it? (But she already knew what the girl was going to say.)
Bubbles: Just what is an...Angel Dog?
Shakti: Well... (scratches her chin) from what I've heard, an Angel Dog could only form from a Demon Dog who...cleansed themselves of their darkness.
Bubbles: ..What? Cleanse? Like with water.
Shakti: No....What I mean is he had rid himself of the evil in his heart, and in reaction, his body changed to a more angelic form.
Bubbles: Ohh.... (looks at the Great Dane) He doesn't look so angelic to me...
Shakti: I know. (chuckles)
(They turn back to watch the fight. Siber had Dane pinned, but with
a single swipe, he knocked her off. She collided hard into the ground,
and cried in pain. Dane widened his eyes as light was gathering in them.
Siber looked in horror, and tried to move. Dane snarled and sped up the
process. The Siberian Husky didn't get a chance to react as the Great Dane
started to launch the light...)
Dane: DANE'S...TRIUMPH!!!
(2 beams of gold flashed instantly on Siber, and knocked the dog clear across the area. In fact she was knocked so far she had collided beside the cave entrance. She first looked at Dane with anger on her face, then she struggled to her feet. Blood was pouring from several wounds. Her body was shaking with pain and fear. She glared harshly at Dane, then took off into the cave. She cried out a warning.)
Siber: You may have won quickly in this battle, Dane....but you...and your new friends....will pay!
(Dane panted, and walked towards the injured ones. He lowers his head, and gently touched each of them with his nose. A light glowed on their bodies, and they felt the pain leave them as their cuts and injuries healed up quickly. Dane smiled, then turned his attention towards Shakti.)
Dane: You know this isn't over...
Shakti: Yes I know. I can't help but be worried of what will happen next.
Bubbles: Yeah....I can't believe Robin got so cold!
Shakti: (looking at her) I can't believe it either...But I'm not surprised...She
was turned into a Demon Dog after all....
(Salvador struggled onto his feet.)
Salvador: Well, we should get going.
(Everyone looks at him, then at eachother. They nod, agreeing to his terms. The Professor might be very worried about their disappearance. They then looked at Dane. They didn't know if he should come along or not. How were they going to explain an Angel Dog? Sure he was good, but was there really enough room for him? And people might be skeptical and attack him.)
Dane: I'll just put these on. (slips on the sunglasses)
Blossom: Okay...just don't take them off or talk...we have to talk to the Professor about keeping you.
Dane: If I can't, that's okay. I lived most of my life on the streets anyway.
Bubbles: But the other dogs could get you!
Dane: (shrugs) Let them come.
Shakti: (shakes her head) You're either very brave...or very stupid.
(While they were leaving, glowing eyes shimmered. Siber watched them, an evil grin on her face. They hadn't noticed something she had done...Sandra started to feel strange. She felt around her neck. A look of horror plastered onto her face. A small section of her collar was knocked off. She whimpered a bit, and Salvador looked at her.)
Salvador: Sandra? What's wrong?
(Sandra looked at him. Tears started to form as she said the one thing not one of them wanted to hear...especially at this time.)
Sandra: My Evil Restrainger has been broken....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh....suspense! If you wanted to know...yes it is a serious matter that Sandra's Evil Restrainer was broken. If you remember, the Evil Restrainers keep them from going wild or becoming evil. They are also immune to dark spells with them on. But they have to be in tact for it to have any affect. Now that it has been chipped, Sandra is prone to turning evil. This is a major spoiler, but yes at one point possibly in the next chapter, Sandra will be turned temporary evil by Siber. She will be black and gray with orange feet, yellow claws, green eyes, and a red symbol on her forehead. Her attack will be changed to Adumbration Ray. Ahh...yes...that scene where Buttercup tries to divert Whitespot...it was inspired by The Lion King scene where Simba tells the hyenas to leave Zazu alone. The two songs in here are "Not Quite Paradise" and "A Change of Heart". "A Change of Heart" is what Dane's thinking during the fight.
Anyway....hope you enjoyed this chapter. I'll try to type up the next one soon....Oh! I need an opinion! I'm torn between killing Siber...or letting her live. What do you think I should do?
