ZED'S Final Hour

Ulrich and ZED walked towards each other. ZED was twice as tall as Ulrich. He wore all black; most of it was armor like that of a knight. He was bald and was wearing dark goggles so you couldn't see his eyes. They both stood face to face; well not really more like Ulrich looked up and ZED looked down. They stared at each other for about one minute and then the battle began. ZED took one swing at Ulrich, but Ulrich blocked it. When he did he got flung backwards and hit the wall hard.

"Ha, you call that fighting this is going to be easier than I thought," said ZED.

ZED came up to Ulrich and picked him up by the throat. He then brought his sword up to his head and spotted where he wanted to strike.

"Any last words?" asked ZED.

Ulrich didn't say anything. He still had his sword in his hand. He then shoved his sword into ZED'S stomach. ZED dropped him and staggered backwards like he was going to die. But he stopped and started to laugh.

"Fool, this is not how you kill the most power full being on the earth," said ZED.

ZED took the sword out of him and stuck it half way into the floor. Then he turned back to Ulrich. Ulrich picked himself off the floor and saw that ZED was not even phased from what he did. Then ZED charged at him. Ulrich dodged his attacks and tried to get to his sword. When he finally did he tried to pull it out of the floor but couldn't. ZED came from behind him and elbowed Ulrich in the back of his head.

"How pathetic, you can't even pull your sword out of the floor," said ZED. "Now I will kill you and then kill off your friends."

ZED moved to strike but Ulrich rolled away and ZED struck the floor. Ulrich then grabbed his sword and used all his might to get it out. As he did ZED came down with a blow and Ulrich blocked it. Then the fight really began. Both of them exchanged blocks and positions as they moved around the room. But it didn't take long and ZED got an advantage. He faked Ulrich out, Ulrich swung down and ZED shoved his sword into Ulrich's side. He then removed the sword and watched Ulrich fall to the ground.

"You see I knew that you wouldn't beat me. So now you will die and I am going to have a fun time watching you bleed to death," said ZED.

Ulrich had both of his hands on the wound to hopefully minimize blood loss. Even though it didn't help too much. But then something happened, a loud crackle ripped through the air and ZED flew back. ZED found it hard to get up after this attack.

"WHO IS THERE? SHOW YOUR SELF!" yelled ZED.

Then there was a different blast. It was dark and eerie looking. It hit ZED and he flew the other way.

"SHOW YOUR SELVES!" yelled ZED.

KC and Moen both walked out from the shadows.

"Well, Well, Well, electric boy and my half human half creeper. So glad you could join us. It's too bad that your friend will die," said ZED.

KC and Moen both shot at ZED at the same time. He flew backwards into a wall. ZED slowly picked himself off of the ground and as soon as he caught his balance he was hit again and again. Until he lay motionless on the ground. Moen and KC both walked up to him and put their hands in front of his face.

"I guess this is the end for me," said ZED in a weak voice.

Both of them smiled at him and shot. His head exploded and his body flew through the wall and fell out of the building.

"Weird I never thought that he would build his fortress right on the edge of the Grand Canyon," said Moen.

"You'd be surprised where people don't build buildings," said KC.

They turned around to see all the Metal men on the ground. Moen and KC free Aelita and then turn around to see Yumi at Ulrich's side.

"Ulrich you can't die," said Yumi.

"I… Love you…Yumi," said Ulrich.

That was the last thing that Ulrich said before he died. Then KC starts to go crazy.

"THAT ASSHOLE!" yelled KC.

KC walks over to a Metal man and rips it head off. He then starts to beat on the motionless body.

"If you were still alive ZED this is what I would do to you," said KC as he punched holes in the metal.

"He's lost it," said Aelita.

"Someone should calm him down," said Kitty.

"I'm not going to do it," said Moen.

Then the door to the room opens. Jeremy, Emily and armed US soldiers rush into the room. One of them gets hit with a large chunk of the Metal man. He gets knocked out and in doing so pulls the trigger on his M16 and bullets rattle throughout the room. As soon as the soldier is on the ground and the shots have stopped Emily sees KC beating on a Metal man and rushes over to him. She tackles him to the ground and plants a kiss on him to calm him down. KC returns the kiss and after a few seconds she breaks it. Then she pulls him to his feet.

"I a…" KC started but was interrupted by Emily.

"It's ok its all over now," said Emily.

Then Moen starts to leave the room.

"Moen where are you going?" asked KC.

"I have some unfinished business to attend to," said Moen.

Moen leaves the room. Now we go over to Kitty who is comforting Yumi.

"Yumi its ok," said Kitty.

"It wasn't supposed to end like this, I should have gotten free from that Metal Man and helped," said Yumi between sobs.

"It's not your fault Yumi, Ulrich wasn't ready to battle ZED. Neither of us could have faced him alone," said Kitty.

"She's right Yumi no one knew what ZED was capable of. The only reason we beat him is because Moen and KC caught him off guard," said Aelita.

"Yeah and if they hadn't came and helped then all of us might be dead," said Jeremy.

"If only they came a bit sooner than Ulrich wouldn't be dead," said Yumi.

"Listen I think that the best thing for us to do right now is go back to France and try to get our lives back to normal," said Jeremy.

"I agree," said Kitty. Everyone else nodded.

Everyone left the building. Jeremy and KC helped carry Odd out. He still couldn't stand and it would take a while for him to fully recover. The gang went back to France to find that everyone left was trying to rebuild everything. After about five months the school was repaired and most of the town was up and running. It would take several years for the whole world to get back on their feet but everyone was helping out in any way that they could.

So X.A.N.A. and ZED are both gone. Well there's only one more ch left. Review if you want to see it.
