Legend of the Ghost Guardians: Night of the Shadows

Chapter 14: Phantom Moon

-Well of the Night, Mountain of Chronos-

Moona, Silverfang, and Writer flew down until they reached the ground. It was dark, gloomy, and quiet where they were. It was a round room with pillars supporting the walls, unlit torches around the area, and chains supporting the floor.

"Where are we?" Silverfang asked as he wondered.

"The better question is... what's the smell?" Writer said as he cringed and covered his nose.

Then they saw the beam of energy going down from where they were. They walked closer to it as they had a feeling they have company and not the friendly kind. Suddenly they heard an evil laugh as the whole room lit up by the torches which burned with a green fire. They saw Pariah Dark sitting in his throne as he laughed faced the siblings.

"Well, well, well... if it isn't the famous Ghost Guardians." The ghost king sneered. "It's fitting that you should be here tonight... as we bear witness to the dawn of a new age... and the failure of your pathetic race of humans and ghosts alike."

"We wouldn't miss it, Pariah." Moona said as she glared the ghost king. Then Pariah stood up from his throne as his sword glowed a green aura.

"Then please... have a seat." he used his sword as it released a wave of green energy and zapped Moona and Silverfang, rendering them weak and drained them of their ghost powers, thus returning back to their normal forms.

"What have you done to us!?" Luna yelled out in disbelief as she tried to use her powers but no luck.

"Like my gift? This sword has an ability to drain all ghost energies because its power came from a rare anti ghost element ecto-ranium. Lucky for me, my dark powers prevented me from feeling its effect." He grinned evilly as he explained which shocked the kids to the bone. "Foolish children... you are no match."

"We've made it this far, haven't we?" Chinook weakly said as he struggled on his feet.

Pariah Dark was indeed impressed by their efforts. "Yes. You have been quite elusive. Had I but known that all it would take would be your amity miserable for Phantana and Nocturne."

"Where are they?" Chinook angrily asked their whereabouts.

Pariah Dark grinned evilly. "How tragic really... that they should be the ones to destroy you two." After that, Nocturne and Phantana suddenly appeared out of nowhere and attacked Luna and Chinook respectively.

Ghost Writer gasped at the scene and shielded his eyes. "Aaaaahhh! The nightmare never ends!"

The kids shook off the blow from their friends who were closing in on them. "You don't need to do this, Rebecca." Chinook said.

"Please Nocturne, don't do this! This is not the way!" Luna cried out to the ghost whom she deeply cares.

"Just like old times, huh guys?" Rebecca said before she winked at them, signaling them that it was a rouse. Then Nocturne whispered to them.

"Same as last time. Line Rebecca up with his sword." Luna and Chinook then remembered that this was just like before at Kibosh's ship. They silently nodded as they continued the fake fight while positioning Rebecca with Pariah's sword. She charged and flew towards them but they dodged her as she went after Pariah Dark. Pariah Dark saw the rouse and grabbed Rebecca tightly.

"This isn't over!" He growled as he threw Rebecca towards the wall. Nocturne grabbed her but the force was too strong and sends them flying towards the wall hard, thus knocking them unconscious as they both fell to the ground.

Luna and Chinook gasped at the sight before them and growled at the evil ghost.

"Don't touch them! They are mine!" Pariah ordered his soldiers to not interfere with the fight as he jumped down from his throne and took out his sword as the Ghost Guardians defended themselves.

They growled out in anger as the kids readied themselves to fight. "This will be your last battle, Pariah! You may not remember this but we know you are responsible for the deaths of our mother and Rebecca's parents. You're no king. YOU'RE A MURDERER!" and then Chinook charged in his wolf form at him but was quickly blown off by Pariah. He charged again, this time clawing him in the back. Pariah yelled in pain and threw Chinook off and holds him down with all his might.

Luna then jumped in and tried to get Pariah off her brother, but was blown off by the king. Chinook managed to get free from Pariah's hold on him and jumped far from it and began running ahead.

Pariah, in anger, chased him as Chinook kept running... towards a pillar on the wall. He wanted the king to follow him for it was all part of his plan.

At the last second, Chinook jumped out of way before hitting the pillar and Pariah crashed face first at the pillar as it broke into pieces while Chinook was catching his breath after using all up.

From afar Fright Knight saw the whole battle since the beginning and was in shock of how the child managed to wound the king.

Pariah was recovering from the crash with the left side of his face bleeding heavily. He was furious at the boy as he closed in on him, but evilly chuckled.

"Good, kid." He said as he was breathing heavily. "Fright Knight!"

Fright Knight gasped as he heard the king calling him. He wondered what he wanted.

"Do you want to redeem yourself and earn back your honor?"

Fright Knight nervously answered to him. "Yes."

"Kill the boy." Everyone was shocked by this order especially Fright Knight whom was deeply scared. "What's wrong? Hurry up and Finish him!"

The knight struggled to move until he faced Chinook and growled. "I'll do it!"

Chinook gasped. "Stop, Fright Knight!" He cried out to him, not wanting to face him again, especially not like this.

The Fright Knight charged as he yelled and grabbed him in his hold. Chinook endured the pain as he felt it but it wasn't as strong as before in his last battle. Luna saw this and tried to stop the fight.

"Fright Knight, you medieval fool!" She angrily said but was stopped by Chinook.

"No, sis." Luna stopped in her tracks as he spoke. "I'm alright. Don't interfere! Go help our friends while I handle this!"

"Brother..." Luna silently said as and Ghost Writer watched in shock.

Fright Knight then slammed Chinook towards the ground, but he still won't back down. As he struggled to rise, Chinook spoke with full courage to the Knight.

"Listen, Fright Knight. You'll never be a real ghost by fighting like this."

Fright Knight stopped as he listened in shock. Pariah Dark saw this and ordered. "Don't listen to that punk! Do it!"

"Knight, what benefit will you gain from killing me? Doing that isn't going to help you escape from his wrath!" Chinook continued.

"Don't listen!" Pariah Dark yelled. Fright Knight was deeply shocked as he was speechless but was deeply moved by Chinook's speech.

"If you fight me now, nobody can help you! Your spirit is weak! Before you kill me, tell me how you really feel from inside you! Your own words!"

Fright Knight then began to shed small tears while listening to the wisdom of the boy, knowing that he is right. "Show some courage! Be who you want to be! Well...WELL?!"

Fright Knight growled and yelled a cry so loud that it echoed the room and suddenly charged... right towards Pariah! His sword sliced the remaining horn right of Pariah's head which made the King furious while the kids gasped at the scene.

"Knight!" Chinook called out to him. Fright Knight then attacked again but Pariah blocked it.

"You coward! I've had enough of your orders!" The knight yelled out in anger.

"What did you say?" Pariah growled. "You got some nerve to challenge your king!"

"SHUT UP! From today, I'm someone else... I'm no longer your servant, Pariah! You're a fool who doesn't deserve to rule anywhere!"

"TRAITOR!" Pariah furiously fired his ghost ray at Fright Knight that sends him flying to the wall and was knocked unconscious.

"Pariah!" Chinook yelled in anger and bit his hand in his wolf form. "There's no way I'll lose to you!"

The ghost king sneered at the boy. "You? There's no way a brat like you can overthrow me!" He then threw him away with force and landed on the ground.

Luna and the others could only watch as the battle continued. She wanted to help her brother, but he told her not to interfere. She knows that when a real fighter says something, he says it with dignity.

Chinook got up from the fall and hold his stance as Pariah Dark readied his sword.

"Your time is over... Guardian!" Pariah shouted out as he jumped and used his sword at Chinook, but he quickly dodged as the sword stabbed the floor with sheer force.

Suddenly they felt the floor rumbling as it shattered and the two fighters fell through it, deeper into the Well of the Night. Pariah's sword also fell through but broke as it made contact.

Pariah Dark knelt before Chinook on the edge of the platform in the Well of the Night, defeated. Chinook stepped closer to him as she spoke.

"It's over, Pariah. Give up."

But without warning, a horrible noise was heard throughout the chamber. In the human world, the lunar eclipse was complete and the Phantom Comet crashed in front of the moon, and an enormous column of light flowed through a ghost portal that enters into the center of the mountain... directly into Chinook himself!

The darkness of the energy and light began to overwhelm Chinook. Pariah Dark cackled as he slowly rose to his feet as Chinook struggled to fight off the dark power of the Phantom Moon eclipse.

Chinook's eyes suddenly began to glow a deviously dark red and the young halfa transformed into Darkfang! His skin turn into a very pale color, his hair was a dark purple color as dark as the night, and his clothes turned black and purple as he came out of the beam.

Pariah saw his transformation and egged Darkfang to attack. "What are you waiting for, halfa? Finish me!" But Darkfang didn't move a muscle, only stared menacing at the weak Ghost King who laughed. "Hahahaha! Coward!"

Pariah Dark raised up his hands to channel up his power and went in for his final assault on the now changed Guardian. "Prepared to die!" As he attacked, Darkfang uses his immense dark power on Pariah, who was slowly turning to stone and then blasted his body apart using his dark fury, thus mercilessly killing him in the process. Pariah's soldier looked from afar at the halfa in horror. In one brief moment, the whole chamber rumbled violently as Darkfang annihilated the ghost king and the whole dark skeleton army completely! With the Ghost King finally destroyed, Darkfang then leaps back into the beam of evil energy while flying up higher.

Darkfang is like an Anti form of Chinook since he accidently absorbed the dark energy, but will it be permanent?

Stay tune and find out!
