Beastfire: Thank you. Sorry, Ivy, but the way things stand now he's going to…you know…
Supa-nova-101: Well, I already wrote this chapter, but I have no idea what happens next, so tell me about Ruby and I'll see what I come up with, okay?
Chapter 10 (Warning, sick and wrong, but the idea has been haunting me)
As Ivy's vision began to return, she moved over toward Frus. He was breathing shallowly, and Ivy placed her hand on his shoulder worriedly. However, she soon was able to see the truth. What she was kneeling next two was only half of Frus. Ivy was too shocked to move at all. It didn't help when her children joined her next to Frus. Crying nearly silently, she staying with the slowly dying Frus.
Tears in her eyes, Kyrie ran towards the monster, jumped onto him, and bit him as hard as she could, which unfortunately wasn't very hard, and she was simply tossed off somewhere. She tried to attack again, with similar results. This time, however, she landed next to Gibson, who was trying to figure out a way to get the lens to work for another attack. Kyrie grabbed it and ran towards the monster. The triplets were trying to attack the monster, but it didn't have much affect. He was walking towards the injured monkeys, almost hesitant to finish the fight. He was ignoring the somewhat undeveloped powers of the children. Suddenly, however, he felt a large piece of glass being jammed into his back.
Watching, one would think that Kyrie must have finished it, that the power of the lens would destroy the monster any second. But it was Kyrie who changed. There was no real physical difference, but the change was obvious. Kyrie's eyes were hard, and she slashed her claws across the monster, this time doing major damage. However, she didn't continue her attack. She rushed back to her adoptive parents. Grabbing both of their hands, she created a link between them. Connected to Ivy, Frus got use of her healing powers, and Kyrie's new powers amplified them. Seeing this, the triplets moved his lower torso into place, and the two halves reconnected. As Frus' breathing returned to normal, the group heard a cry for help. They looked up to see Otto and Gibson holding back the monster, who was clearly in pain, with the lens still stuck in his back and starting to burn at his flesh.
Ivy and Kyrie had just used up all of their energy saving Frus, and all of the other monkeys and Chiro were out of it, if not nearly as injured as Frus. This left the triplets to save the blue and green monkeys. Unfortunately, the monster's power was still incredible, and even though their efforts did some damage, it wouldn't stop the beast.
Overhead, a dark figure was watching from the top of a building. As long as everything was taken care of, he hadn't wanted to put himself in any more danger than necessary. Letting out a sigh, he jumped down from the building, aiming himself at the monster. With a crushing blow from his staff, he sent the beast over the edge. It was on track to defeat, now. Skeleton King attacked it over and over, and the triplets aided him with their powers, as did Otto and Gibson, although they had been somewhat hurt fighting the monster in while the others were helping Frus. Finally, Skeleton King smashed his staff onto the monster's head and it burst apart into a mist. This mist was absorbed into Skeleton King's staff, and he departed, hoping that his Citadel would have repaired itself by then.
Please review. (Should I have changed this to M rated for violence? Maybe I should redo this chapter...)
