Chapter 6: Where there's Smoke…

It was a long war between the experiments and Red Moon's army. Every experiment used the same strategy: cure the vampires and werewolves that could be cured, destroy the ones that couldn't. The ones that couldn't be cured were the ones that have been under Red Moon's control for longer then they naturally lived. All the Hawaiian inhabitants were returned to normal. There were a few people who were non-native to the island and their real homes had to be located. Some monsters didn't give the experiments any trouble, for example Vampire Pleakley. Others were a considerable problem, for example Werewolf Gantu. An interesting side effect of the serum was noticed: once a person was cured, they lose all memories of being a vampire or werewolf and a few hours before hand. But, slowly but surly, the experiments were winning.

Now the experiments were camping outside the forest where Red Moon was. They were resting up before they took siege on Red Moon's fortress. A ditch that was partially filled with salt and wolf's bane protected the campsite. A roaring fire was going and most of the experiments were roasting hot dogs. Stitch and Angel were sitting close by each other. "Angel, how long have we known each other?" asked Stitch. "A couple of months, why do you ask?" asked Angel. "I was just wondering if you were feeling comfortable," said Stitch. "I am, this island is beautiful. They are lots of good people here like you, Lilo, and Deli." Stitch hesitated and asked, "Do you feel comfortable with me?" Angel looked the other way before answering, "Sort of, but I think we need to branch out a bit, see other people." Stitch paused before saying, "I think we might have to. No hard feelings?" Angel looked back at Stitch and said, "How could I ever have hard feelings toward you?"

Meanwhile on the other side of the campfire, Draco and Victoria were chatting. They had recently found and rescued Snooty. He was transformed into a vampire but for some reason still preferred mucus above blood. PlasMorph made perfect bait. Draco looked at Victoria. She was so beautiful to his eyes and very charming. He thought that she deserved a good boyfriend. And if that boyfriend had to be Snooty, that was all right with him. Then Draco said, "You two make a good couple." Victoria looked at Draco with disgust, "ULGH! No way! You're sounding like my parents. They think that Snooty and me will someday get together and then get married. They don't like to think that they'll have a nose-picking vampire for a son-in-law. No matter what anyone thinks, we are not a couple. All Snooty thinks about is mucus. Not the kind of guy for me." "Oh, I see," said Draco with a relaxed face. But inside, Draco was screaming for joy. Victoria and Snooty were together like he thought. Not as a couple but more like a brother and sister. Maybe he still had a chance.

On another side of the campfire, Chip and EnigMorph were having an intellectual conversation. Finally Chip asked something that had been bothering him for a while. "EnigMorph, remember when you were going to kill Hamsterviel but we changed your mind?" "Yes," said EnigMorph. "Well before you started melting you were going to say something, what was it?" EnigMorph looked into the flames and said, "I was going to say that I was sorry and as soon as turned back to PlasMorph, I'll never use EnigMorph's form again." "Why would you do that?" asked Chip. "Because I almost killed Hamsterviel in cold blood, I was too dangerous." Chip looked at EnigMorph and said, "Most people would have killed him in your position. He took your family, forced you into his slavery, and then tried to destroy your family. Lots of people would have killed Hamsterviel, but there are some that wouldn't have killed him. Those people are the ones with a tender heart and you're one of them." The whole camp sank into peaceful quietness but it was interrupted by PlasMorph yelling, "Help! My hot dog's on fire! Medic!"

Suddenly the smell of smoke began to grow stronger. "What are we burning?" asked Lilo. "We're just burning regular firewood," said Draco. Then it became obvious the smoke wasn't coming from the fire. They looked towards the direction of the woods to see Piton Toxico floating towards them. "I wouldn't come into this campsite if I were you," said Chip. A few of Piton's heads looked down to see the salt and wolf's bane in the ditch. "That ssstuff will work on a real vampire or werewolf," said Piton as he floated over the ditch. "But it won't work on me." EnigMorph stretched out his arm and grabbed Piton. Piton could have easily escaped but there was something about EnigMorph's claws that kept him trapped. Draco withdrew his prism sword and advanced towards Piton. "Alright Piton," said Draco. "Where's Red Moon?" "Why ssshould I tell you that?" hissed the smoke-hydra. Draco swung his sword and chopped off one of Piton's heads. Piton yelped with pain and the severed head dissolved in the air. Piton grinned and hissed; "You haven't read much Greek mythology, have you?" Three more heads sprouted from the stump of the severed neck. Lilo whispered something into EnigMorph's ear and he nodded. The hand holding Piton turned into a mess of vines. Piton felt the vines suck up his body and yelped. "It burnsss! It burnsss usss!" EnigMorph turned his hand back to normal. "Now will you answer our questions?" asked Chip. "Yesss! Yesss! Anything you asssk!" "Alright then, I'll ask again. Where's Red Moon?" Piton pointed towards the forest. "In hisss fortresss! He'sss alwaysss in there!" "How do we destroy him?" questioned Stitch. Piton grinned at this and said, "You can't! Even if you dessstroy hisss body, hisss ssspirit will find another hossst and posssesss it. Then that hossst will become Red Moon." "Okay, how do we destroy his body?" asked Deli. Piton wouldn't answer so EnigMorph turned one of his fingers into a vine. "Alright I'll tell you!" yelled Piton. "Jussst ssstop doing that!" EnigMorph's finger turned back to normal. "The only way do dessstroy hisss body isss to pierccce hisss dark heart with white light. But I don't how to do that." EnigMorph released Piton's body, which was a bit smaller than before. "Tell you master that we're coming for him," said EnigMorph. Piton hurried off. Then Chip said, "I think its time to use my new weapon." Chip pressed a button and there was a slight rumbling in the ground. Then a large metal container popped out of the ground. It opened to reveal a large robot that looked like a muscular version of Chip. There was a small compartment in the chest for something tube-shaped. Chip jumped into that compartment and plugged himself in. The door closed and the robot's eye lit up. "I'm ready now," said the robot with Chip's voice.
