Chapter 7: Final Battle

Jazz was the first one torecover her mind.

"Danny, you've finally told everyone. I never thought you would," she said proudly.

"Now's not the time for shock, people. We need to clear out of here before the big bossman finds out that we escaped. That work for everybody?" Lia challanged. Everyone nodded, not wanting to deal with the dangerously serious halfa.

"Great, but how do we get out of here? Plasmius could easily outfight you both," Guy pointed out.

"Simple, we get you guys out of here, and come along later," Lia said plainly.

"But what will you do?"Jazz asked, a little worried.

"We need to find a stubborn someone who ran off. It shouldn't take too long." Lia turned to Danny and nodded. He nodded back.

"No way, we'll not let you," Maddie said sternly.

"And who-tell me- who thinks they can stop us? Any volenteres?" Lia challenged. Jack raised his hand.

"I dare you try me, little man," Lia snorted at him.

"Why do you want to find this person, anyway?" Jazz asked.

"He's important to me, that's all," Lia said shyly.

"Boyfriend?" Sam asked.

"No, best friend."

"Riiiiiight," Tucker added.

"Wow, 'Pot to Kettle, you are black,'" Lia said, annoyed.

"We better get going before Plasmius shows up," Danny interveaned.

"Kay, let's go. The ship is this way," Lia said, walking away.

Later in the Time Stream...

"Hah, here it is!" Lia declared triumphantly.

"We'll see you guys when we get home," Danny said.

"Be careful," Guy advised.

"Don't worry, little bro, I live for my family," she said, kissing him gently on his forehead.

"Bye, sis," he said, getting into the Specter Speeder.

"Are you sure you'll be alright?" Maddie asked.

"Are you kidding? This is what we live for!" Danny replied for both of them.

"Okay, if you say so."

When everyone had piled into the Speeder, Lia opened the portal, and the ship left through it.

"Well, you two did better than I expected," Vlad's voice said from behind them.

"You!" The elf and the human halfa whipped around to see the eviling halfa floating behind them.

Vlad said nothing but blasted them with an Ectoplasmic Ray (Which I'm just going to call an ER because I'm lazy), and duplicated himself into four Vlads. Lia turned to Danny and nodded, and said to him in her mind, Danny, we need to leave this lab, it's way to small. Danny nodded back. Lia changed into Wisp and flew off, with Danny following her example.

"Hahahahahahahaha!" Vlad laughed, "Run all you want, this is my castle!" And flew off after them.

Wisp and Danny had managed to make it to a fairly large room when they both got zapped painfully by Vlad's Plasmius Maximus. They screamed in unison, reverting back to their human (and elf) forms. Vlad laughed evilly as the duo hit the floor.

"So, do you two want to resist me anymore?" he challenged them scoffingly.

"Don't your dare lay a hand upon them!" a snarling voice threatened.

"What?" Vlad said, surprized.

"You heard meeeeeeeeeee!" Nino slammed through the door and pinned Vlad to the floor.

"Nino!" Lia called happily.

"Hey Lia." he said without turning his head, then said to Plasmius, "If you touch or harm her in anyway, I will kill you slowly and painfully. Got it?"

"Yes," Vlad said weakly.

"Good."

Even Later in the Time Stream...

"Thanks Nino for getting us out of there," Lia siad, "Ummm, sorry about earlier."

"That's okay," Nino said, "You were just explaining things to a friend."

"Sooo..." Danny said.

"So, let's get home. I bet the others are worried sick about us!" Lia said cordialy.

End of Chapter 8: Final Battle

Author's Note: I was talking to my friend whilest doing this, so I was kinda distracted, but all-in-all, it's good, right?

Author's Quiz: In the chapter, I say, "hit the floor". Hit the Floor is the name of a song. Who wrote the song?
