Legend of the Ghost Guardians: Night of the Shadows

Chapter 7: Arena Fights

-Prison Cell, Kibosh's Ship-

Luna and Chinook were pacing around their cell after they regained consciousness. They were trapped since the cell was built with anti-ghost equipment and the bars are made with ecto-ranium which prevented them from escaping. Ghost Writer is just chilling out while singing the blues to pass the time.

"Cause you had a bad day, You're taking one down, You sing a sad song Just to turn it around." Ghost Writer sang as he formed his hands like he was holding a harmonica.

Chinook sighed. "Writer, must you do that now?"

"Well, maybe I do must I do that! And you know, it might be just crazy enough to work." Ghost Writer exclaimed as he resumed singing.

"Come on, kids. Put that sorrow behind you and clap your hands with me. Let the joy come pouring down, rain on me and you."

Luna was becoming irritated by his singing. "You know that I'm this close to ripping his mouth off." She whispered to Chinook who chuckled at her threat. They resumed pacing while trying to think of an escape plan.

"Hmph hmph hmph. Can't you feel it? Can't you just feel the love in the room tonight? Hmph hmph." Ghost Writer said in rhythm.

Chinook was staring at the bars of the cell when suddenly, he saw someone very familiar as he walked passed by his cell.

"Blazer?!" He said excitingly. It was the same Solareon leader Blazer whom they met months ago, only he was wearing a red vest with olive pants and black boots and a red headband on his head.

"Silverfang? Is that really you, old friend?" Blazer said surprisingly to see his saviors in bars. "Moona?"

"Blazer? I can't believe you're here!" she said happily to see a familiar face around here.

"It's us." Silverfang said happily. "Where are we?"

"Can you get us out?" Moona asked.

Blazer looked around to see if any pirates are nearby, but luckily, the coast is clear to speak to them. "You are on Kibosh's ship." he whispered. "And will likely be made to compete in their barbaric arena fights, like the other prisoners. They're unique pirates who enjoy capturing only strong ghosts and used them to fight against each other in order to win some hard cash."

Luna and Chinook were shocked at this info, but they wondered one thing. "If they're after only ghosts, why are you here?" they asked.

Blazer explained sadly. "I, too, am a prisoner here, as are many of my people. But we Solareons are too frail to make for worthwhile entertainment, so we are made as slaves to serve food to these scavengers."

"Blazer, you have to get us out." Moona pleaded, not wanting to fight in the arena.

"Shhh!" Blazer shushed them as he heard footsteps. "We'll talk later, I promise. Someone is coming. I'll pray for your safety." Blazer then silently left them just as Captain Kibosh and Hyena came to the cell.

"I trust your living quarters are to your liking?" Kibosh asked them sarcastically.

"I don't know." Ghost Writer answered. "My roommates could be more fun though." Luna and Chinook glared at their friends.

"I thought I told you to be quiet, fool!" Hyena shouted to Ghost Writer and then spoke to the kids. "And you two...get ready to fight. It's hurting time, baby!"

The two of them left just as Ghost Writer complained. "I really, I mean more than really, hate those pirates!"

"What was your first clue?" Luna said as she groaned. Then more pirates came to collect them for the fights as they prepared for the worst.

-In the Arena-

In the huge arena, there were seats filled with pirates as they cheered. Captain Kibosh and Hyena sat in their chair until they rose to announce the opening battles.

"Fiends and felons! Scoundrels and swindlers! Welcome... to the first event of the evening! Tonight, we bring you a very special battle, sure to quench your thirst for brutality!" Kibosh announced as the pirates cheered loudly.

"Enough of this jibba jabba!" Hyena exclaimed impatiently. "Let's bring on the pain!" Everyone agreed to Hyena as they too want to see some pain,

"Introducing... two creatures both rare and powerful... Creatures of might and ghost powers! Prepare yourselves... and feast your eyes...on Moona and Silverfang... THE GHOST GUARDIANS!

They opened the gate as Moona and Silverfang came out of it and entered the arena with Ghost Writer behind.

"Whoa! If we weren't risking our lives for this, I'd say this is pretty cool." Moona admitted after seeing the crowd. The crowd jeered at them as they are not what they expect them to be.

"They're not ghosts! Just a couple of fresh meat!"

"I got a bad feeling about this." Silverfang whispered to them while ignoring the jeers.

"Don't worry. We'll be fine, trust me." Moona reassured her brother until Kibosh spoke again.

"And their opponent...You've seen them before, and love them! We offer you, none other than the twins of terror themselves, the Bone Slammers!"

The kids saw that their opponents are giant, green, scorpion-like ghosts with giant claws, heavy armor, and huge tails that can shoot plasma rays from it. They are also ridden by pirates. Facing them would not be easy.

The Guardians faced them and it wasn't easy since their claws blocked their attacks and their plasma tails were annoying. Luckily Silverfang used his time powers to slow them down while Luna used her ghost rays from underneath them and blasted them up in the air. Then Chinook slammed them down using his ice tail, thus defeating the twins with ease.

Ghost Writer saw the whole thing and was impressed, as well as the pirates who cheered for their victory.

"Great crowd, huh? I wonder if I can get them do the wave." Ghost Writer said as he waved to the crowd.

"Well done. Well done indeed." Kibosh was impressed. "Step forward, young guardians, and receive your glory."

But before they did, the Guardians suddenly felt dizzy and collapsed again.

Hyena, after seeing the victors faint, then shouted. "You waiting for someone to move for you two? Don't just stand there... this ain't no puppet show!"

Ghost Writer was beginning to worry. "Oh, no! Not again." He was beginning to panic as the crowd were screeching to know what was going on.

"Don't worry! There's nothing to see here! Everything's all under control!" He shouted to them trying to calm them down, but he was worried for the kids.

"I hope."

-Dreamscape-

Luna and Chinook woke up to see that they are once again back in the dream world. Then they saw flew down towards the same pool only to find that it's shining a blue light. Suddenly they heard the Great Observant's voice again as he spoke to them.

"You've come far, young halfas."

"What?!" Chinook was getting upset as he felt that this entire journey was for nothing. "Clockwork said you would help, but you've only led us on a path to nowhere!"

"We want to find our friends and to help them! How is this helping anyone?" Luna asked.

"Our path through life is not always the path we choose. Sometimes are paths are chosen for us... and it is our destiny to follow it, wherever it may lead. Chinook, if you may."

Chinook sighed, but in a way, he knows that the Great Observant is right. He entered the pool and meditated as he listened.

"Be steady, Chinook, and use the power of the spirits and your instincts to feel your way."

Chinook then took a deep breath and released his ghostly howl as its power was far stronger than before. He was happy he finally managed to receive his strongest power back again.

"The power of the worlds and its people is a mighty one. For as the earth moves, so does everything in it. Be mindful as you wield it."

The two of them went on to face the tests again that they managed to pass with great results. Chinook's ghostly wail was powerful enough to break down high structures, make enemies stop in agony, and even break down electrical systems.

They entered through the temple and Chinook wanted to ask something to the Great Observant and spoke to him.

"I want to know what is happening. We've done what you've asked, and followed your path."

"I agree. I think we're entitled to know what's happening." Luna said impatiently.

"Yes. But a time will come when you two will have to choose your own path... and you are not ready. Open your eyes..."

They did what he asked them to and a vision was sent by the Observant. They saw the mountain of Chronos and on the sides of it, they saw the dark spirits and an army of skeleton ghosts flying to its peak.

"Why are they going towards it?" Luna wondered.

"It is their calling. The black hearted creatures of both this world and the Ghost Zone cannot resist its temptation. The Well of the Night beckons them as the Night of the Phantom Moon approaches."

"What is the Night of the Phantom Moon?" Chinook asked until he saw another vision of the moon going for a lunar eclipse and then he saw a green comet flying in its path as the Great Observant explained.

"It is the night when the moon goes into a great lunar eclipse and the comet known as the Phantom Comet blazes across the night sky... that shrouds the human world in darkness. The Well of the Night is the pinnacle of it's terrible shadow... stirring the dark spirits from their eternal prison and permitting them to roam freely within the halls of the mountain... if only for a short while. And soon, the Night of the Phantom Moon will be upon us.

Find me... in the Cave of Origins of the Silver Island..."

The suspense is getting good! Hope that Luna and Chinook escapes.
