"You really think that little knife is a threat to me?" Hacker growled, pulling out his staff, "I have the greatest power of all of Cyberspace, and the Universe. Now, be a good boy and surrender!"
A beam shot across Matt's shoulder as he attempted to escape out of the way with Inez.
Matt hissed in pain.
"That's how he killed Gatito!" Inez cried.
"And I'm gonna kill you two the same way!" Hacker bellowed, sending another beam. This time, Matt completely dodged it, never loosening his hold on Inez. The dodging continued, until finally, Matt threw the pocket knife as an attack at Hacker.
Matt and Inez gasped.
"The knife just went through him!" Inez screamed, "I thought there's no such thing as the water that can make you live forever!"
"Trust me, now's not the time to bring up the subject of a book!" Matt cried, dodging another attack, "That staff is his key to making him invincible, we gotta get that thing away from him!"
"Well, we can't kill him, we already tried that!" Inez replied.
Matt gritted his teeth. "Something tells me he's already dead..."
"Huh?" Inez squeaked.
Matt dodged another oncoming attack, and happened to land at the windowsill. He looked below. The citizens were trying their best to fight off Hacker's created Cybercreatures.
A place where darkness seems endless
Can I find a place that's fit for me...?
Matt took a deep breath, and grabbed one of Inez's play vines from the tree close to the room window. "Hold on!" Matt cried.
Inez was thrown onto Matt's back. She held onto him tightly, as Matt grasped the vine.
"You're not getting away!" Hacker cried.
"Jump! Now!" Inez screamed.
Matt didn't hesitate. He leaped off the windowsill the instant the attack was aimed at him.
The dark hour's coming
There's nowhere for hiding
So don't start
To be scared all the way
We're gonna be flying
No matter we're going
You got that?
So please don't be afraid!
The ride was exhilirating as they made their way down.
Matt felt a tug between his shoulder blades, just as he was thinking of flying.
"Matt!" Inez exclaimed, "You have wings!"
Who knew I could fly over the clouds?
With the power to open up the unseen of mine?
Matt turned his head and noticed the giant angel wings that have sprouted from his back. He began to flap them, and let go of the vine.
Matt brought Inez down from his back into his arms, as he landed on the ground gracefully. The citizens and the Cybercreatures awed with amazement.
Matt felt a powerful energy rising from his shoulders, all the way down to his hands. Matt thrust his arms foreward and released rays of golden light that destroyed each of the Cybercreatures.
The unseen forces have awakened again
No need to ponder
There's no timing for that
All there is left for survival is that we stick together
Together
The unseen forces are angry at me
I knew that I should've kept it all to me
All there is left for survival is that we stick together
"What in the..." Matt soon became speechless, as he felt something imprinted on the side of his neck.
Matt felt the imprint. It was a symbol of some kind. It had a picture of a line with curled hooks at each end, with a straight line crossing through it, shaping a very odd cross.
"Matt, what's happening?" Inez asked.
Matt looked down at Inez with an equally confused expression.
"You tell me." Matt replied.
My blood pressure's rising
My heartbeat is growing
Can you hear it?
It's like the beat of a drum
I feel my world shaking
I feel myself changing
Can you see it?
Like the call of the night
"He's back!" a citizen cried.
Matt and Inez whirled around to see the beam return, as Hacker appeared.
"Not him again..." Inez hissed.
"You're lives are mine!" Hacker bellowed.
"Don't think so!" Matt cried, as Jackie caught up with them. He handed Inez to Jackie, and flew into battle.
"Matt!" Inez screamed.
Who knew I could fly over the clouds?
With the power to open up the unseen of mine?
"No, Inez!" Jackie cried, "You're already ill!"
"But Matt is going to die against him!" Inez screamed, tears rolling down her eyes. Inez's family members tried to calm her down.
Jackie growled, and grabbed Inez's arms, and brought them to her back, which caused Inez to collapse onto her knees, and just cry even more.

"Well, well." Hacker taunted, "Looks like your little girlfriend is crying. Might as well help the pipsqueak before I destroy her! It will be the last time you see her!"
"No! I won't let you!" Matt cried, and shot an attack at Hacker, causing the enemy to bash into a nearby tower.

Matt quickly flew out of the way as Hacker regained his strength and shot another attack towards the winged boy.
"And since when did earth brats have wings?" Hacker scowled.
"To tell you the truth, not even I know!" Matt cried, "But it's enough to help me win this battle!" And with that, Matt shot another beam of gold at Hacker, this time, severely injuring him.
And the battle continued...
All there is left for survival is that we stick together...
