Hey guys! I'm back with another chapter. What's gonna happen now? Let's see and find out. Enjoy!

Back In Royal Woods

Stella and the others were riding their bikes and kept an eye of for Scourage activity in town. Rusty was wearing a police light on his helmet which made everyone in town glance at them.

"Do you mind explaining why you're wearing that on your helmet Rusty?" Zach asked him. "Because I'm trying to look professional when we're on protection duty." Rusty explained while keeping his pride. "You look ridiculous with that Rusty." Stella told him with an unamused face. "It's all for a good cause Stella." He tells her with a smile. "Yeah. A lost cause." Liam said while rolling his eyes.

They hear Chandler laughing at them. "Nice helmet loser brigade." Chandler mocked them. Liam got annoyed and pulled a skunk from his backpack and threw it at Chandler. "Catch Chandler!" He called out. Chandler saw the skunk and ran away to avoid getting sprayed. "No! STAY BACK!" Chandler told the skunk that was now chasing him. Stella, Rusty and Zach were stunned. "You had that in your backpack?" Zach asked in surprise. "Zach, when it comes to a varmint like Chandler, I'm always ready to skunk him." Liam said with a smirk.

The others laugh and continued down the road. "I hope Michael finds that Emerald before Scourage, Sonia and Manic do." Zach said. "I'm sure, he'll be fine." Liam assured him. Stella noticed a blue light coming from inside the Juvenile Detention Center and got curious. "What do thinks going on in there?" She asked the boys. "Maybe they're using a black light. Maybe someone stole something from the warden and are trying to find out who." Rusty suggested. "Or maybe it's a top secret alien observatory." Zach suggested. "Zach, we already know aliens exist. You know? Because Michael is an alien." Rusty reminded him. "I know." Zach said.

They walk up to a window, and when they looked inside, they're eyes widen in shock. They see Albedo, Fiona, Sargent, Lightning, Hawk and Frog doing work for Scourage and the whole building was turned into an evil lair. "Or it could be Scourage's evil lair." Stella said.

Inside the lair

Albedo was studying the serum and places it in as machine to create 4 more samples. "Where did you obtain that serum again Albedo?" Sargent asked. "We rummaged it from the 4 year old Loud that's down in Hawaii. And we stole it from her." Albedo explained as he puts the samples in a separate vials and set them in a machine. "With this serum, we'll be the top destruction team, the universe has ever seen." Albedo said with an evil smirk.

Frog appear from behind him. "Hey! You rhymed!" Frog said with excitement. The others just glared at him for being stupid. "Oh shut up, Frog." They all told him. Albedo starts punching in codes on control gloves. "Okay. I'm starting up the mixing procedure and increasing the effects of the serums compound genome alteration." He tell the others. "How long will this take?" Fiona asked. "Approximately and hour and a half." Albedo answered.

Suddenly, Stella and the boys, burst in with bats and metal pipes. "FREEZE!" They all shouted startling Albedo and the others. "Yall varmints are in darn trouble!" Liam yelled at them. "Put your hands up where we can see them!" Rusty ordered them. Albedo and the others just stared at them. "And what are you supposed to be? Junior cops?" Hawk asked.

Stella and the others glared harder at them. "We may not be cops, but we are friends of Michael In The Hat!" Stella tells them. "Now step away from the machine, or these pipes will give you a splitting headache for 8 months!" Zach tells the Destructix. Seeing the friends were armed, they backed away from the computers and machines. "Do you have a police light on your head?" Lightning asked Rusty in confusion. "Yeah." Rusty simply answered. "Pfft. Why?" Fiona asked.

"Are we having a disco party?! WEEEEEE!" Frog cheered and started dancing. Stella and the others had confused faces and looked back at the Destructix who had deadpan faces and shook their heads in annoyance. Stella tripped Frog with her bat. "All of you, get in that cell, right now!" Stella ordered them.

Back at Hawaii

Michael look out into the ocean as his cape was flapping in the wind and at the gold light shooting up into the sky. He knew that he had to run across the ocean in order to get to where the light was projecting from.

"Come on Michael. Rosy passed this responsibility to you, and you have to take it. For her. For all the Amazonianas. So it's now or never." He pep-talked to himself and shook a little to loosen himself up and takes a deep breath in and out. "Okay. Here we go." He said to himself as he draws out the Infinity Sword, got into spinning position and powers up with orange energy. "Time to Spin it to Win it." He said as he glared out into the horizon with a face of determination and his eyes glowing orange.

After a few seconds of powering up, he dashes off spinning on the ocean. Michael was filled with energy and determination, he felt he was ready to face Sonia and Manic again and avenge Rosy. He remained focus on the beam of light while maneuvering waves. But they weren't going to stop him.

"I'm coming for you 3! And I'm ready for ya!" He said with anger. Soon a wave starts to grow in front of him, but he gets an idea. "Surfs up!" He shouts as his tornado rode over the waves. "Sonia, Manic! You two are going down. Hard!" He said.

After it felt like minutes, Michael saw the beam was coming from an island and dashed right for it.

On the island

Michael ran through the bushes right toward the light and when he arrived, he sees a temple in the ocean.

"So this is where Rosy and the Amazonianas hid the Emerald. So Scourage, Sonia and Manic are already in there." He theorized. "I better hurry." He said to himself as he ran toward the temple.

Inside the temple

Scourage, his drones, Sonia and Manic were running through a labyrinth to get to the Golden Emerald. While they ran, they were also setting off traps. The three were able to avoid them, but the drones were mostly taking the hit.

Scourage dodged a spear that shot out of the wall. "Those Amazonianas were desperate on keeping the Emerald away from the Silver Roncos! They're mechanisms are good. I'll give them that." Scourage admitted. Sonia flipped over a trap door while Scourage and Manic jumped over it. "Well thank goodness, there are none of them left!" Sonia pointed out. "And now that Michael In The Hat and his wimpy friends are gone, there's no stopping us from retrieving the Emerald." Manic said. "We'll make you proud Thaddeus." Sonia said. Scourage gained an evil smirk when they weren't looking. "But still, we don't know for sure that they're really dead. So I sent Albedo and Fiona to check for sure." Scourage informed them.

"As long as we're way ahead of them, we're good." Manic said while dodging an incoming blade. Sonia stepped on a plate and it made the ground shake which startled them. "Uh oh. That can't be good." Sonia said in concern. "Is it ever in places like this?" Scourage asked.

They look back and see a giant spike ball rolling after them. "Whoa! RUN!" Manic told them and they ran down the hall while the ball was gaining on them. "I DON'T WANT TO DIE LIKE THIS! IT'S DERIVATIVE!" Scourage screamed. Sonia looked ahead and saw the door was about to close. "THE DOOR!" She screamed while pointing at it. "I got it!" Manic said as he got under it and used the Infinity Sais to help lift it up. "Scourage, Sonia! Hurry!" He told the two. "MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY!" Scourage called out as he and Sonia sled under the door and Manic got out of the way and allowed the door to close and the spike ball crashing into the wall.

They all laid down on the ground breathing really heavy, recovering from the experience. "That was a close one." Sonia said. Scourage began counting each of their legs "2. 2. And 2. Good, we're still bipedal. More or less." He said in relief. They all stand back up and looked around. "Fire in the hole!" Scourage told them as he make them duck down. "What?" Manic asked wondering why.

Suddenly a flame throwing trap was set off. "That's what." Scourage answered. "I solved it. There is a booby trap every seven sec…" Scourage began but saw a blade coming toward him. "TIME STONE!" Sonia called out as the Time Stone glowed and slowed the blade down long enough for Scourage to stop and slightly avoid. It barely missed him and impacted into the wall. Scourage look at Sonia who gave a sly smile. "You're welcome." She said.

Scourage took a deep breath in relief. "That was a little early than I expected." He said feeling embarrassed. "Just glad that didn't get my brim." He said in relief with a swipe of his hat brim. "Come on. The Golden Emerald can't be far now." Sonia told them as she was about to walk on, but Scourage stopped them. "Hold on Pinky and Jolly green giant. I know you guys are both dying to get your Emerald on, but can we be more mindful of our surroundings?" He asked. "Allow me." He told them as he punched in a code on his gloves.

Popping out of his pocket, a mini drone scans the temple as it flew forward slowly. "In 30 feet, turn left." Said a voice in Scourage's glove as he leered at Sonia and Manic. "Work smarter. Not harder. He told the alien brother and sister as he walked on. "We're almost there sis." Manic said. "I know. Thaddeus would be proud of us." Sonia said with a smile. They both ran to catch up with Scourage. "Wait for us dude!" Manic called out.

At the entrance to the labyrinth, Michael slides down a water slide. "WOO HOO!" He cheered in delight. Once he got to the bottom, he stuck the landing and looked at the labyrinth. Michael smirked and loosened up a little. "Alright secret temple." He began as he was getting ready to run. "Thrill me." He said in a confident tone.

He dashed into the labyrinth while setting off and dodging traps behind him. After a while some to the traps caught up to him. But he used his tornado spinning and the Infinity Sword to knocked them away and avoid them. Soon a spiked wall came rushing at him, but he took off quickly. "I know I said thrill me! But not this much!" He cried out as he continued running.

At another room

Sonia and Manic punched through the wall gaining access to the room. Scourage smirked at this. "You've arrived at your destination." Scourage's glove said making Scourage satisfied. "Wow. That really opened up the space. I can't even picture it with an impenetrable wall now. And the rubble is always a nice touch." He said as they pressed on forward.

They see in the center of the room was a stairway. And at the very top of the stairs was what they came for. The Golden Emerald. It was floating in midair surrounded by a stream of gold light that was shooting up into the sky. The three look up at it in amazement. Scourage was getting super excited.

Sonia gasps with joy. "There it is. At last." She said. "The Golden Emerald." Manic said with confidence. "Ultimate power." Scourage said with a mischievous smile. "Soon order will be restored and we can begin to find our bro. All because of what the three of us did together." Manic said. "Scourage, we couldn't have done this without your help. So thank you." Sonia gratefully said to Scourage making him smile. When they turned away he turned his friendly smile into an evil one.

"Such lovely sentiments Sonia and Manic. I think a feel a single tear forming." He said pretending to wipe away a tear, but then he drew one of his finger blades out, and used his heat vision to make it a 1000 degree blade. "Sadly… You're as useful to me now as a backstage pass to Limp Bizkit." He said with a menacing tone as he was about to stab them with the really hot blade.

Suddenly they hear rumbling going on above them and someone shouting. After a minute, Michael crashed through the ceiling and fell down to the ground all dirty. He coughs a little and smiles. "Nailed it." He said. Suddenly a spike ball fell too, but barely missed Michael. "Whoa!" Michael cried as he backed away from hit. "Phew. That was a close one." He said.

Scourage and Sonia were shocked that Michael was now there. "YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?!" Sonia asked in outrage. "This guy is always trying to SPOIL A BAD THING!" Scourage said in frustration as he blew on his blade, cooling it. Michael got up and wiped the dirt off. "Oh. You guys are here too?" He asked pretending to be happy. "Took the long way I see. Me? I'm more of a go the quickest way king of dude. Oh and hey, thanks for doing all the hard stuff, but I'll take it from here." He tells the three. "IS EVERYTHING A JOKE TO YOU IN THE HAT?!" Manic asked in anger. "WHY MUST YOU CONSTANTLY INTERFERE WITH OUR DESTINY!?" Sonia asked also angry.

Michael glares at them. "Because MY destiny is to protect my friends and family!" Michael shot at them. Scourage just gave a sick face. "I think I just threw up in my mouth." He said shamelessly. Michael walked up to the staircase and looked back at the three. "This Emerald is my responsibility, and I'm taking it! And if you guys want it so bad…" He began as he adjusted his gloves and draws the Infinity Sword. "You're gonna have to go…Through…ME!" He yelled as his eyes glowed with orange energy.

Scourage gulped pretending to be scared of his threat. Michael dashed up the stair about to grab the Golden Emerald. Sonia and Manic power up with energy and dashed toward him. "OH NO YOU DON'T!" Manic shout furiously. Scourage saw this was an opportunity to get the Emerald. "WHOA HOOOOO!" He shouted in delight.

Michael kept running up until he saw Sonia and Manic running along the wall. So he jumped off the stairway and onto the opposite side of the wall while all three aliens glared at each other. The all bounced off the walls and collided. Michael was getting slashes on the two while they try to punch.

"ROCKY PUNCH ATTACK! EARTH!" Manic chanted as he was about to punch Michael, but he dodged it in time causing Manic to punch nothing but air. "Lame chant!" Michael shot at him. The three continued throwing punches and kicks at each other. "THE SILVER RONCOS DIDN'T DESERVE SUCH POWER IN THE FIRST PLACE!" Michael yelled at Sonia and Manic. "Neither did that fool, Rosy or those Amazonianas!" Manic shot back landing a punch. Michael got angry as he shook the pain off. "YOU DON'T DESERVE TO SAY HER NAME!" Michael tells them in pure rage.

He throws the Infinity Sword at them, but them Sonia clenched her fist. "TIME STONE!" She chanted as she stopped time on the Infinity Sword. "Stop that!" Michael told her as he threw a rock at her and managed to hit her. "OW!" Sonia cried out in pain and got angry. Michael grabbed the Infinity Sword, ran up to the ceiling and bounced off as Sonia jumped right for him. Michael slashed her, making her fall down to the ground.

Scourage was watching from a safe distance while he makes his way to the Golden Emerald. "These two are taking no prisoners today. Michael has heart, but will he lose the will to live?" Scourage said spectating the fight. Michael and Manic clashed with each other again and slide across from one another. "I don't want to fight you two, but you're not giving me much choice!" Michael said as he was about to drop kick Manic. But Manic punched him hard and knocked him into a waterfall that was draining out of an Amazoniana statue.

Manic growls and help Sonia up. "Too easy." Manic said. "I'll say." Sonia said. They both looked up at the Golden Emerald. "Let's do this." Manic said as they both climbed up to it. Behind the waterfall, Michael powers up with more energy and starts spinning like a tornado. Sonia and Manic were halfway to the Emerald until they see Michael come at them spinning and sliced the stairway. The dash knocked both Sonia and Manic back. "NOPE!" Michael called out.

Michael used his speed to make time slow down as he dashed up to the ceiling and started to spin again. As he spins down, he pounded both the sibling deeper into the staircase. Michael jumps out after the fifth pound and smirked and hummed in triumph. Suddenly, both Sonia and Manic burst through the stair really enraged with energy and they tried to beat the heck out of Michael, but he was moving too quickly for them to land a hit.

"WE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF YOU! YOUR MAKING THIS HARDER FOR US THAN IT NEEDS TO BE!" Sonia screamed in anger. "JUST HOLD STILL, PUT THAT SWORD DOWN AND DIE WITH HONOR!" Manic shouted in fury. "Let me think about that!" Michael told them. "Okay, I thought about it, AND. I. PASS!" Michael shot at them. They both started punching faster and faster until they both punched Michael in the face launching him to where they came in. "Time to finish this wimp once and for all." Manic told Sonia who nods.

Scourage made it up to the Golden Emerald while Sonia and Manic were distracted. He marvels at it with an evil grin. "Hi there, beautiful. You're the real deal, aren't you?" Scourage asked the Golden Emerald then danced around it and spoke in a different language. "Where have you been all my life?" He said in French.

Michael shook off the pain from Manic's punch and saw both him and Sonia standing in front of him, holding a large boulder. "It's all over for you Michael. We're putting an end to you!" Sonia said really angry. "Any last words?" Manic asked as he was ready to drop the boulder on Michael.

Michael was terrified he was about to be killed, but gasped when he saw Scourage about to take the Golden Emerald. "Sonia, Manic, stop!" He pleaded as he pointed to the staircase. "Scourage is stealing the Emerald!" He tried to warn them. "Nice try In The Hat! What do you take us for?! Idiots?!" Manic asked not believing him. "You're more of a nuisance than I thought you were!" Sonia spat at him. "JUST LOOK!" Michael begged again.

Sonia and Manic did this time and saw he was right. Scourage was in fact stealing the Golden Emerald making them silently gasp. "Miiiiiine." Scourage said as he was slowly reaching for the Golden Emerald. "HEY!" Manic called out getting Scourage's attention. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" He asked as he put the boulder down. "THAT WASN'T THE DEAL!" Sonia called out to Scourage.

Scourage just gave them an evil smile. "Oh, you poor naive creatures. It's not your fault. A more advance Intellect would have seen this one coming a mile away. Or 1.6 kilometers, but who's calculating?" Scourage mocked them. "BUT WE TRUSTED YOU!" Manic called out. "YOU WERE OUR FRIEND AND YOU WERE GONNA HELP US FIND OUR BROTHER!" Both Sonia and Manic called out feeling betrayed. Scourage laughed like a mad man. "I'm sorry. That just hit me funny." He said to them.

Then he shoots a menacing glare at them. "Let this be my final lesson to you two. You dimwitted celestial brats!" He insulted them making them really feel betrayed. "Friends… are open, honest and vulnerable with each other. Which means X square times the hypotenuse of Y-square divided by the absolute value of friendship, equals…DOOKIE!" He yelled. "Oh and as for your brother, I don't care who he is. He's probably dead anyway. But don't you worry…YOU'LL BE JOINING HIM SOON!" Scourage shouted as he turned back to the Golden Emerald. "Oh no!" Michael said in worry.

When Scourage touched the Emerald, it sent out a burst of energy that launched Michael, Sonia and Manic away making them scream. As Scourage help up the Golden Emerald, he was absorbing a ton of Chaos Energy. His skin turned dark grey, his eyes are black with light purple pupils, he grew a wide sinister smile revealing his sharp teeth. All his scars turn light purple, and his hat turns darker green and his entire body was surrounded by purple aura and golden energy.

"CHAOS…IS..POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!" He howled with power as his voice became distorted and he teleports away. When he was gone, the entire labyrinth begins to collapse and flood with water, shocking Michael, Sonia and Manic. "WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Sonia asked in panic. "THE EMERALD WAS THE LOADBEARING TO THE ENTIRE PLACE! THE TEMPLES COLLAPSING!" Michael answered. "AND SINKING BACK INTO THE OCEAN!" Manic added. "LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!" Michael tells Sonia and Manic as he made a run for it.

However Sonia and Manic got caught under column that fell on top the them, causing them to get stuck. The water cover them completely as they tried to move the column off them, but they began to lose air and consciousness. "SONIA! MANIC!" Michael called out to them, but go no response. "They're gonna drown. I gotta help them." He told himself as he took a deep breath, jumping into the water and dived down to the column holding them down.

Michael tried to lift the column but it was too heavy. He was about to lose air, but used an air bubble that was nearby to gain more air. Sonia and Manic regain consciousness and saw Michael trying to free them. As Michael was struggling to lift it, he felt it move by itself and saw it was both Sonia and Manic trying to lift it, but they were having trouble too. Then Michael gets they're attention and starts to countdown with his figure. Sonia and Manic nod in understanding he was telling them they lift together. When Michael gets to one, they all lift together and Sonia and Manic got freed and they swam back up. Michael was about to follow, but his cape got snagged under the column. He tried pushing the column off, but it was no use. He tried calling out for Sonia and Manic, but he realized he let air out of his mouth. Soon, he began to lose consciousness and was about to drown. Suddenly his hands were grabbed By Sonia's and Manic's hands and they helped him out and they swam back up to the surface.

Oh no! Scourage got the Golden Emerald and betrayed Sonia and Manic. At least Michael had the heart to save them, and they helped him back. What are they gonna do now? Make sure to tune in to find out. Please Follow/Favorite and Review and I'll see you in the next one. Good day to you all.
