Chapter 7: Duel to the Undeath

The group traveled deep into the forest in search of Red Moon's fortress. Along the way, Draco consulted Chip about how they will slay Red Moon. Chip considered this and said, "White light is made of a spectrum of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When white light goes through a prism, it gets separated into the seven colors that make up its spectrum. However, if light of all seven colors went through a prism at the same time, they'll combine to form white light. Your prism sword would work in the same principle. If we can combine energy blasts of the seven colors in it, it'll become a sword of white light." "Where are we going to find those?" asked Draco. Chip thought before saying, "You already have six of the seven colors in energy form, red laser-vision, orange fire-breath, yellow lightning-breath, green plasma-breath, blue ice-breath, and violet psychic-horns." "What about the indigo energy?" asked Draco. Chip pondered and said, "Indigo is, for some reason, a rarer color and is not easy to find in nature, let alone energy. However, since you already have blue and violet maybe those two can substitute for indigo." "I hope you're right," said Draco.

Then they reached Red Moon's fortress. A guard from on top of the gate yelled, "Halt! Who goes there? Friend or foe?" EnigMorph opened his mouth and blasted the gate to pieces. "Foe," he answered smartly. The posse charged through the gate and was met by a hoard of vampire and werewolf guards. The group defeated them with serum-loaded darts. Some of them turned back to normal, some crumbled into dust. They separated into smaller groups and swarmed through Red Moon's fortress. Everyone scoured the fortress, administrating the serum to every vampire or werewolf they could find. Once Victoria was disarmed by a quick werewolf and was about to be eaten, when Draco slammed headfirst into it and injected it with the serum.

Then four experiments managed to find their way into Red Moon's throne room. They were Draco, Chip, PlasMorph, and EnigMorph. Red Moon was seated on a throne made of bones and Piton was floating nearby, looking a bit nervous. "So you have made it this far," said Red Moon rising from his throne. "And from the feel of it, you have freed everyone of my minions except for Piton." Then for no good reason at all, an inter-dimensional portal opened between Red Moon and the experiments. A large group of vampire slime-monkeys and mutant werewolf-lobsters popped out. What their intention was forever unknown, because Red Moon ate them in an instant. "Now there's something you don't see everyday," said PlasMorph. After that, Red Moon grew in size until he was 18 feet tall. "This ain't good," said Draco. "Don't let overwhelming terror spoil your grammar, Draco," said Chip. "Now its time to crush something I should have crushed in the first place," bellowed Red Moon. He turned to Piton and said, "Piton, deal with the others," and gave him an energy boost. "Yesss, massster," said Piton before he floated over the group. "Sssea of Ssserpentsss!" yelled Pitn and vomited out smoke from all of heads. The smoke made a barrier separating Chip, PlasMorph, and EnigMorph from Draco. The smoke surrounded them like fog. Now Draco was isolated from his friends to deal with Red Moon.

Draco withdrew his prism sword and used all his energy blasts on it. The energy was absorbed into the blade and was fueled into its power. But unfortunately, instead of combining to create white light, the sword swirled in a multi-colored fashion. "Pretty," said Red Moon. "But it won't defeat me." He then blasted Draco with black energy. Draco sliced through it with his sword with great ease. The sword left a rainbow trail where it swung. "Or maybe it can," said Draco.

Meanwhile, the others were having a hard time inside the smoke. They could only see each other and the rest was just blackness. Piton had entered the smoke and was now attacking them with his several heads. The only way you could see the heads was by their glowing red eyes and open mouths. The experiments had to blast the heads to avoid getting injured. EnigMorph noticed that PlasMorph was weak against the smoke-serpents and was starting to lose. EnigMorph knew that he could combine with PlasMorph to increase his power but that would destroy EnigMorph's individualism, making him a part of PlasMorph forever and could never be separated. He had to choose, let PlasMorph die at the hands of Piton Toxico or be bonded to PlasMorph forever. When he saw that the situation for PlasMorph was critical he made his decision. EnigMorph turned into liquid slime and splashed over PlasMorph. PlasMorph's body absorbed the liquid and fused with it. Immediately he was fueled with incredible power. He used this power to turn into EnigMorph and continue battling with Piton.

Draco and Red Moon were equally matched. Draco's prism sword could slash through Red Moon's blasts and slice through Red Moon's body. But Red Moon could regenerate and was able to recover from the prism sword's attacks. Draco even chopped off one of Red Moon's arms. The arm fell to the floor and turned into ash. But Red Moon grinned and grew another arm to replace the one he lost.

Chip was capable of seeing through the smoke barrier and fight Piton at the same time. He knew that Red Moon was slowly getting the upper hand. "If only Draco had some indigo energy," he said to himself. He looked at his hands and saw that they were still crackling from the viral blast he had been shooting. The blasts were indigo. "Oh, I am such an idiot," yelled Chip. He tried to blast Draco's sword to empower it, but the smoke got in the way. "Morph!" yelled Chip. "Give me a hand!" Morph grew an extra hand and tossed it to Chip. "Ha, ha, very funny. You know what I mean!" Morph aimed carefully and fired a series of blasts that were from different experiment powers. The smoke was forced open by the barrage. "Hey Draco!" yelled Chip. Draco and Red Moon turned to where the hole in the smoke barrier was. "Catch!" yelled Chip and fired a viral blast towards Draco before the hole sealed up. Draco saw the indigo color of the energy and knew what Chip meant. With amazing agility and acrobatic skills, Draco leaped towards the viral blast and put the prism sword in the path.

The viral blast was absorbed into the sword and its indigo color could be seen swirling with the other colors for a moment. Then they all swirled together and became a pure white. Red Moon saw the white light in the sword and knew what it meant for him. He tried to destroy it with a blast that would have destroyed a large boulder. Draco swept the sword through the blackness and it melted away. "This is the end for you, Red Moon the Uncrushable," said Draco. He flew straight into Red Moon and plunged the sword right into Red Moon's heart, piercing it with white light. Red Moon howled in intense agony. The energy boost that he gave to Piton vanished and the smoke barrier evaporated. Everyone watched as the energy of the sword swept through Red Moon's body. The skin shriveled and the light could be seen escaping through Red Moon's mouth, nose, eyes, and ears. Then the light broke through completely and the skin was blasted off and turned into ash. Red Moon's form was surrounded with white light for a blinding moment. When they looked again they saw that the entire fortress had vanished and they were standing in the woods. They looked where Red Moon was standing and saw a werepire skeleton standing by itself. Then the skeleton collapsed into a pile of bones. They saw, or thought they saw, a ghost with a wolf's head and bat features fly from the pile and flew off into the night, away from the island.

Piton Toxico looked down at his former master's remains and look at the experiments with a sheepish look on his faces. "Well, I think I mussst be going. Goodbye." He started to fly off but Draco grabbed his prism sword from the pile of bones. It still glowed with a white light. He flew in front of Piton and pointed the sword at him. "I'm still angry at you," said Draco. "For what?" asked Piton. "I wasss only following ordersss. Red Moon wasss the one who took over the island." "Yes but it's your fault that he came to the island in the first place," said Draco. "What are you talking about?" asked Piton. "You had a grudge against me for making you lose your job with the Dark Dragon. So you had yourself hired out to the second strongest villain in the world." "What doesss that have do with anything?" hissed Piton. Morph spoke up. "I have heard that you were the one who pointed Red Moon towards an island for a place to start his reign. And not just any island. The island you knew where Draco and his family lived." Piton looked even more sheepish. "Well I might have recommended it a few timesss in front of him." Draco used his prism sword to chop off two of Piton's minor heads. The smoke-hydra screamed at the pain. But what surprised Piton most was that more heads didn't replace the ones that were chopped off. Chip spoke up. "You know, during the camp-out before we came here, I told Draco a few things from Greek mythology. Like how Hercules defeated the Lernean Hydra by sealing the neck stumps with fire." Piton was now extremely worried. "Now Draco, don't do any thing hasssty and irrational." Draco swung his sword a few more times and whittled Piton's heads down to three. "I suggest you go before you don't have two heads to rub together," said Draco. "And if you pull this stunt of again, there won't be enough of you to make a smoke ring." Piton was about to fly off when Morph grabbed him. "But just to make sure that you go," he snickered. "Let's give you a big send-off." He used his TechPack to sprout a vacuum catcher like the one in the Yaarp episode. "Wait! What are you doing?" yelled Piton. Then Piton was sucked up into a capture container. "You want to do it or shall I?" asked Morph. "You can do it," came Draco's reply. Morph aimed towards the east and said, "Bon voyage." He threw Piton's capture container with the power of a rocket. Piton went screaming over the ocean and out of sight. "Where did you send him to?" asked Chip. "Redwood Natural Park," said Morph. "It was the best place I could think of to send him next to the rainforest but that was to far away."
