Time for Challenge number two, who will be eliminated this time around. And why don't I own anything yet, which I don't. Well, here's the story.


The same ten bolts of lightning zapped the remaining nine villains down on what looked to be a huge glacier. "Welcome to the second challenge," Mog said as he too appeared. The first reaction of every villain save a few, which was Vexus and Xana, was to shiver in the freezing cold. Even Slade and Zeno, both being more resistant to the cold (Slade because of his armor, Zeno because he's a mamodo) were affected. Azula immediately began to try to envelope herself in fire, but it still wasn't enough. Vlad changed into his ghost self where he'd be more resistant to the freezing cold, but that didn't completely nullify it either. Still Shego, the Huntsmaster, and Wuya were the worst off.

"Haven't you heard of a heater," Shego asked shivering.

"Haven't you heard of a jacket. Seems like all this fur does come in handy after all," Mog said rubbing it in her face. The real reason that he wasn't cold was because he was a hologram, the real Mog was still in the lobby.

"This is perfect," Vexus said happy about the climate of the challenge, "I'll definitely be able to catch up now."

"You forget Vexus," Xana said in his still monotonous voice, "you do not yet know the nature of this challenge, therefore you cannot make improbable assumptions."

"The challenge is simple and straight forward, you must reach the other end of the dimension, ten miles of glacier. You will be able to fight along the way, though that isn't what you should worry about. There are many obstacles along the way. You are also not allowed to teleport, that applies to you Xana, Vlad, and Zeno," Mog said explaining the challenge.

Vexus smiled looking back at Xana. "Even if your improbable assumptions happen to be correct."

"Other rules, I believe that I already said that you aren't allowed to erase people's memories," Mog said looking at Zeno.

"S-sure," Zeno said shivering in the cold.

"Good, the other two rules are that unlike the last round you can create your minions and-," Mog said before being cut off.

"Get on with it, I'm freezing," Azula yelled shooting out fire in random directions.

"Fi-figures that wh-when I can use my min-minions there's no ro-rock," Wuya said rubbing her arms together.

"Um, yes, I'd better finish before Azula kills me, it's -30 degrees Fahrenheit, and like I said, the faster you found your stars the better. I'll dismiss you when you're allowed to leave. Vlad found his first, so he can leave as of now," Mog said. That got angry looks from everyone but Vlad and Xana. Xana didn't care, and Vlad was already going first. Vexus was angry cause she'd leave last, the others were angry because they were freezing to death.

"Ta ta, must be off," Vlad said flying away, as he was already in his ghost form. Five minutes passed by and then Mog released Xana, who simply walked away.

"I think I should enjoy myself in this match," Xana said still walking as slowly as ever.

"Okay, now I'm officially afraid. He can make his minions, and he's not affected by the cold at all," Zeno started, "not!"

"You should be child," Vexus stated, "you have a huge disadvantage, whereas I am sure to finish first, well, second because of Xana," Vexus said.

"Ya, well as I recall you're gonna be the last one to leave. If I hadn't wiped out that weakling it would have been you that would have been eliminated," Zeno yelled, "and just because we haven't left yet doesn't mean that I can't use my spells, Zakeruga," Zeno yelled. Nothing happened.

"You cannot use your powers until your out of the safety forcefield," Mog said pointing to an indent in the ice, "also, though things can leave, nothing can enter, Slade, you may leave." At that Slade took of running, but only until he was outside the forcefield. "Shego you may go," he said a few moments later. At that Shego joined up with Slade and they both took off across the huge glacier. Zeno, who would be the next person to leave, still had to wait seven minutes. During all this time Vlad was encountering his own problems.

"Stupid bugs," Vlad yelled blasting at some of Xana's hornets with his ectobeams. Two of the blasts hit the two hornets and they were destroyed, leaving only the third. It fired a single laser at Vlad which he easily dodged. After that he fired back with his own laser-like ectobeam.

"You seem to be lagging, wonder why," Xana said walking past the still flying Vlad.

"I'll show you," Vlad yelled firing an ectobeam at Xana. Xana defended with some kind of shield and fired back his own electrical charge which hit Vlad point blank, causing him to fall from the sky. After that Xana materialized two tarantulas right in front of Vlad.

"Enjoy," Xana icily said walking away.

"Oh sugercookies," Vlad said trying to dodge the constant barrage of lasers that the two new beasts were shooting. Vlad, unable to get a chance to fire, was eventually hit by the lasers and was knocked unconscious. In that time Shego and Slade managed to catch up, Zeno was also allowed to leave, shortly followed by the Huntsmaster.

"Should we go, they look dangerous," Shego asked referring to the tarantulas. Her current position, along with Slade, was on top of a huge ice covered hill, and both were still freezing.

"Yes, they shouldn't be too much of a problem," Slade said jumping down landing on his feet, Shego following quickly. Both the tarantulas heard the noise and instantly turned their heads towards Shego and Slade. However the two tarantulas didn't fire, instead they turned back to look at Vlad, who was no longer there.

"Quickly, let's go before they start shooting," Shego yelled running to make sure that the tarantulas wouldn't start shooting at them. Slade on the other hand knew better, Xana was his ally, but he was still in a rush, it was a race after all. Zeno was then allowed to enter the race, who was followed by the Huntsmaster only four minutes later. Zeno didn't actually have any problem getting to the finish line, except for the freezing temperature, the Huntsmaster, however, did. Mog had decided that it was his turn to be eliminated, though the Huntsmaster wasn't all that cooperative.

"Stupid ice guns," the Huntsmaster yelled blasting one of the ice gun traps that Mog had set for him. They were designed to freeze someone, that someone being Huntsmaster, in place. It didn't work though, namely because of his heightened senses. His coat also helped, which protected him from the cold almost as well as Vexus or Xana, he had only pretended to be cold. Back at the finish line though . . .

"Xana you are the first to arrive after only 25 minutes," another Mog hologram said to him.

"That should be enough," Xana said monotonously, disappearing in a bolt of lighting. Five minutes after his arrival both Wuya and Azula were allowed to leave, followed by Vexus, who immediately took to the air and blasted off towards the finish line nonstop.

"There it is," Shego said looking at the finish line, still freezing. Guarding it however were three tarantulas. "But we have to get past them first."

"Shego don't worry. They will not fire on us," Slade said, sure of his alliance with Xana. To prove it he walked right on next to the finish line. Shego, seeing that it was safe, did the same, and they both crossed the finish line together.

"Shego and Slade you are the second and third to arrive after 45 minutes," the Mog hologram said.

"I wonder who the first is," Shego said sarcastically, as she was positive that it was Xana. Once she said that both Slade and she were teleported back to the lobby. Vlad, for the most part, didn't experience any trouble except for Xana's tarantulas that were shooting at him. He had become intangible to avoid the monsters, and arrived seven minutes after Slade and Shego, followed immediately by Zeno only a minute later.

"How did you get here so fast," Vlad asked.

"Because apparently no one thought enough to get me out," Zeno answered.

"Well of course they didn't, you got fifth place both times, they're sure that you can go out on your own," Vlad said back with a smirk.

"Why you, I'm gonna ki-," Zeno started before being sent back to the lobby. Vexus arrived ten minutes after that, arriving after only 63 minutes, meaning the race only took her a measly 17 minutes to complete. Back with the Huntsmaster he was still having great difficulty approaching the finish line. He was constantly getting bombarded with all of Mog's traps, and still managing to destroy them all.

"There it is, that demented monkey doesn't have me out yet," the Huntsmaster said noticing the huge tarantulas that didn't even move. "Fine, if they don't want to attack I'm not complaining," he said crossing the finish line.

"Huntsmaster you are in seventh place and have complete the race after 78 minutes," the Mog hologram said sending him back to the lobby. "He should have lost," Mog mumbled angrily after that. After five more minutes the final two contestants appeared at the finish line, and they weren't friendly this time around. They both knew that they were the last two, so they both knew that whoever got there first would be last, but at least not eliminated.

"Your just some common firebender, or whatever, how can you defeat a powerful Heylin witch like me," Wuya said. After hearing the voice of Wuya all three of the tarantulas sprung to life and started firing on her forcing her back. None of the lasers seemed to target Azula however, so she continued on.

"I'll beat you like that," Azula said crossing the finish line.

"Azula you are in last eighth place finishing the race after 83 minutes, Wuya is eliminated." the hologram Mog said sending Azula back to the lobby, and Wuya 'home'. Well her new home anyway.

All eight bolts struck the lobby at the same time (Don't ask me how he does it, I'm just the narrator) causing all eight of the remaining villains to appear, some of which noticed that Wuya had lost.

"Like the last time I will show you the scoreboard," Mog said as a scoreboard appeared behind him. It read like this-

Xana- Time Taken 20 min.

Shego- Time Taken 45 min.

Slade- Time Taken 45 min.

Vlad- Time Taken 52 min.

Zeno- Time Taken 53 min.

Vexus- Time Taken 63 min.

Huntsmaster- Time Taken 78 min.

Azula- Time Taken 83 min.

Wuya- Time Taken: Eliminated

"Wuya lost, just as planned," Xana said returning to his room, but only after giving a small note to Slade.

"I see that your in fifth place again, what a surprise," Vlad said referring to Zeno. He was safely on his way to his room, and by the time Zeno caught up with him his door was shut.

"Open up so I can kill you," Zeno yelled kicking the door.

"Now I thought that you already learned that the door was stronger than you," Vlad said from behind the door.

"When you get out I'll kill you," Zeno said. Other than the fact that Zeno and Vlad both didn't have dinner, Zeno because he was waiting for Vlad, and Vlad because he didn't want to be killed by Zeno, the day was uneventful. The normal was going on, the Huntsmaster annoying Mog. Slade and Shego sparing. Zeno trying to kill Vlad, oh wait, I already covered that. Azula in her room practicing her firebending (Which was difficult cause she couldn't firebend, so all she could really do was the motions). Vexus doing the same thing, only practicing whatever she normally would practice. And Xana was spending the entire day decoding the information around the dimension that he was in. At night, like the night before, Slade entered Xana's room.

"Have you found anything out yet," Slade asked staring at the supercomputer, which was filled with illegible words.

"Yes, this odd data that you found is actually what is holding this dimension, one that was created be Mog himself," Xana replied.

"Anything about the amulet though," Slade asked.

"No, not yet, the code to that is even more difficult to crack, though I am close, I should have it by tomorrow," Xana said, "if you wish to help there is another computer over there with copied data, it would double our production."

"Very well then," Slade said getting to work for the second night in a row. They were only stopped when Mog knocked on his door.

"Wake up Xana, if you can sleep that is," Mog said moving to Slade's door. They both took that as their cue to leave the room and slip into the lobby, which they did. "Has anyone seen, ah there you are Slade, then let the next round begin," Mog said as the tired Slade was teleported away to the next challenge, along with every other villain.


Well then, if you want to know why this took so long it's because this isn't the only chapter I have done, I have the next two done after this, plus I was on vacation. So after I get some reviews then I'll update again.
