Dib charged at Aquatica and swiped his knives at her. The blades went smoothly through her as she refromed from each cut. Dib jumped back as she fired off more ice missles. Two of the missles hit his right shoulder and left forearm. The blood sinked into his new white trenchcoat. Aquatica slashed out again, only to have Dib duck at the last second and leave her wide open.
Gaz opened fire from her machine gun on Aquatica. The bullets made her liquid body splater and spray. Each one could be visibly seen as it hit its target. The firing stopped as Gaz bent down to reload. As she was doing this, Aquatica once again began to reform. Her body slowly pushing the bullets out and letting them hit the stairs. Once she was whole again, she had another smirk on her face.
" I've told you this already,". She said as she brought her hand back. " You can't hurt water". She released an array of ice sickles at Gaz. Gaz brought the machine gun up in order to protect her, but knew she was toast. She closed her eyes, waiting for the piercing of the ice.
Dib jumped between Gaz and the ice at the last second. He brought his hands up and hoped he would somehow shield his sister from harm. As the ice was an inch from him, it stopped. Dib blinked as the ice stay there, hovering in the air. When he lowered his arms, the ice fell to the ground. Aquatica looked shocked to see that her attack had been stoped. She quickly transformed her arm into a whip and flung it at Dib. Dib brought his arm up to his left side and connected with the whip, making the water splatter. Dib lowered his hand into his trench coat pocket and brought out a dagger. Aquatica, after seeing the weapon, once again smirked.
" Havent you learned by now that such puny tools have no effect on me"? She made her entire left arm a sharp claw of ice.
" This". He said indicating the blade. " Won't be puny". The blade then sparked. Then it began sending off more electrical bolts from it. Soon the blade was nothing but lightning. The electrical current soon began to engulf Dib, and soon he was covered with the electical force around him. His glasses fell off to reveal his eyes. The lightning was covering his eyes and coming out the edges. Dib bent forward slightly, and charged at Aquatica with unhuman like speed.
Aquatica puched forward with her ice made arm, but struck nothing. She felt a pressence behind her, and turned to see Dib. She struck out at him again, but he just vanished before she even touched him. Dib appeared at her side and, before she could strike, he flung the electrical dagger at Aquatica. The dagger embeded it'self in her liquid body. The lighting cutting out of her like spikes as she screamed in pain. She slowly began dissolving, until nothing remained but a chared out section of the floor.
The dagger losts its electrical charge and slumped to the floor. The force of lightning that surrounded Dib faded and went. Dib fell to the floor and didn't move. Gaz, who had stayed back since the whole lightning thing, rushed over and knelt beside Dib. She shook him and tried to wake him up, but he wouldn't wake.
" Come on Dib, wake up". She fell onto his chest and began to cry. She didn't care what any of the others would think if they saw her like this. She had lost her brother, her only true-.
" SNOOOOREEE".
Gaz looked up to see Dib was... sleeping. She quickly became angry and a dark aura surrounded her. She stood up and retrieved a pipe wrench from her pocket. " Prepare for pain". She said as she lowered the pipe onto Dibs crotch.
(Tak and Zim)
Tak and Zim had slipped by Aquatica and had began to go down the stairs to get Derek. They realized they stood no chance against Aquatica due to their weakness against all forms of water. They had been going for about four minutes and was about halfway down, when they saw a blue shine from above.
Zim looked at Tak and nodded his head for her to go check it out.
" I can get him without your help, just go back and see what the hell that was". Zim said, gesturing towards the light that had become increasingly brighter.
" But what if-". Tak began, but realized it was pointless. Once Zim made up his mind, nothing could stop him. She quickly made her way up the stairs, leaving Zim by himself.
Zim turned and began to run the rest of the way down the stairs. Hoping Derek had somehow surrvived the fall. He was three hundred steps from the floor when he saw the body.
The fall from that height had made a massive crater. It reached all around the floor and some of the cracks even reached the walls. Dereks body was bruised and battered. His stomach wound had stopped bleeding, but you still see the evidence of the blood that was pooled all around him. He wasn't moving, and that was what worried Zim.
Zim jumped the rest of the way, landing with a humph. He ran over to Dereks body and checked for a pulse. " Bingo". Zim though as he still felt it, barely. He moved up to Dereks face and began to lightly slap it. " Hey, hey come on, I need you to be fully in control". Nothing happened for a couple of seconds, then Derek coughed up blood and cringed as he felt his stomach with his movement.
" St- i- me". Derek uttered words, but were unhearable to Zim.
Zim bent his head forward to get a better sound of what Derek was saying. " What"?
" Stick... the... damn... knive... in me... you... dumb ass". Derek smiled at his last words.
Zim smirked and then brought the Gorgon from Dereks pocket. He looked at it and then at Derek. " Are you sure man, the effects will be irreversable".
Derek shook his head. " I'm... willing to.. take that... chance. Plus... it's the... only way". Derek said.
Zim nodded and raised the Gorgon above Dereks arm. He was about to plunge when he saw Derek shake his head. Zim lowered his arms and raised an imaginary eyebrow. " What, you said to stick the knive in. What's wrong"?
" Put it in... my stomach.". Derek said, looking at his stomach wound.
Zim looked unsure. But then shook it off. He wasn't the one who had survived a thirty thousand foot fall and lived. He raised the Gorgon once again and plunged it into Dereks stomach wound. There was a blinding light that filled the entire lower section of the stairs. Zim covered his eyes and then looked. He awwed at what he saw.
A/N: Hope you all liked Dibs new powers. It was tough trying to decide on a choice or type for him. Then I came to the conclusion that lightning was the most sesible, espicially since he was going to be using it to protect Gaz. Also, just one chapter left until you learn the reason for why the Gorgon was only an experimental weapon. What has happened to Derek that left even Zim awwing? What new form of this awsome will we see from the Gorgon? How will Derek be able to defeat Nymphus and save Shade? One word to all these questions. Speed Demon.
