Xiaolin Showdown: Legend of the Thunder Child III: Apocalypse Clone

54: Singala Spectrumise

Meanwhile…

0:14:54 till Cannon fire…

Chase looked out of the window as he saw a bright flash fill the sky, followed by a huge explosion. He sighed as he watched pieces of metal and glass float by the window.

"Would you believe how easy it was to escape from the detention room?" said Wuya as she walked beside him, "Hey? What's with the big explosion?"

"Ryan" said Chase "He failed…"

"Failed?" said Wuya "What do you mean?"

"I guess he was just a regular kid after all…" said Chase as he continued down the corridor.

"Err…Okay" said Wuya as she followed him, "So…What do we do now?"

"We find Hannibal" said Chase "Plain and simple"

Chase looked out of the window again, a piece of metal from the pod floated by. His eyes widened as he saw electricity spark from the shiny surface of the metal.

"Wuya…" said Chase "I'm…going to do this alone…"

"Alone?" said Wuya "Why the sudden change?"

"Wuya, I heard that Hannibal had stored the Shen Gong Wu in Deck R4" said Chase "Why don't you go help yourself…"

"Shen Gong Wu!" gasped Wuya "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Wuya then turned around and shot off into the distance, Chase then narrowed his eyes at the piece of metal as it floated by the window.

"I don't know why…" said Chase "But there is something not right about that piece of metal…I think I know what I must do…"

He turned away as he walked off into the darkness of the Shadow Ecliptis.


Control room…

0:13:55 till Cannon fire…

"Ready to meet your end?" said Guardian Angel as he stomped towards them, each step shook the metal floor under them. Raimundo tried to hold his offensive stance but at the same time he was holding the still crying Kimiko in his arms.

"Come on Kimiko" said Raimundo "Snap out of it!"

"I can't!" cried Kimiko "Ryan's gone…"

Raimundo leapt out of the way as Guardian Angel lunged at them again.

"Kimiko" said Raimundo "You got to snap out of it! Ryan didn't want you to die here"

"But I can't…" cried Kimiko as she hugged him, "I needed him…"

"He needed you too" said Raimundo as he carried her away from Guardian Angel, "He still needs you"

Kimiko looked up at him with red puffy eyes.

"He needs you to continue with our job" said Raimundo. She smiled slightly as she wiped her eyes.

"So then Xiaolin Dragons?" said Guardian Angel as he extended his legs to make him even taller, "How should I kill you?"

"Wudai Mars Fire!" yelled Kimiko as she held her hands up at Guardian Angel, a stream of fire flowed from her hands and sprayed all over Guardian Angel, he yelled in pain as he closed his sphere, protecting him from the flames.

"Wudai Star Wind!" yelled Raimundo as he created a tornado around Guardian Angel, keeping the flames around him and also sweeping him off his feet so he landed on the floor with a loud crunch.

"Gah!" yelled Guardian Angel "So the kitty cat wants to play too? I'll have you know that just because the sphere is closed, doesn't mean I can't see you!"

The hydraulics in his legs hissed as he got back to his feet, he spun his metal arms around him to get rid of the flames.

"I also have a few tricks up my sleeves…" said Guardian Angel as the sphere opened up, "I am the original Ryan Young after all! Wudai Supernova Thunder!"

Both of his hands opened up and began to glow with yellow light, he laughed as he blasted Kimiko and Raimundo with rapid fire bolts of lighting. Kimiko and Raimundo tried to dodge the attacks but there were too many. They both yelled in pain as they were blasted into the wall.

"Heh heh heh…" chuckled Guardian Angel as he stomped towards the two teenagers, "Poor little Raimundo, you were always second fiddle to Ryan, beaten by your own sub-element…and you Kimiko, you can't even stand on your own two feet without him…Ryan was no friend…He was a burden!"

"No…" groaned Raimundo as he got to his feet, "Ryan said that I had to finish is work…He trusted me with Kimiko…Ryan wasn't stronger, we were equals! He knew I could do as well as him!"

"Ryan…Made us all stronger…" said Kimiko as Raimundo pulled her to her feet, "He helped us get this far, we will go all the way! Even if…it cost him his life…I will finish his job for him!"

"You don't truly believe that bullshit?" laughed Guardian Angel "Face it; you're doomed, just like Ryan!"

"And guess who else is Ryan!" yelled Kimiko as she and Raimundo leapt at him, "You are!"

They both grabbed onto his arms and hung onto them, Guardian Angel roared as he tried to swing them off him.

"Wudai Mars Fire!" yelled Kimiko as she blasted the arm, one of the hydraulics that moved his arm burst under the heat, rendering the arm useless.

"You shall not win!" roared Guardian Angel "For I am the ultimate warrior!"


Hanger 4…

0:09:50 till Cannon fire…

"Here we go, little partner" said Clay as he walked into the hanger, "See? The Ark Angel is just where we left it!"

"Wow, you are correct" said Omi "But what is taking Raimundo and the others so long? They are being most slow at poking"

"Slow pokes?" said Clay. Omi looked at him with a clueless look.

"Never mind…" sighed Chucky "Let's just get on board…"

They were about to climb on board of the Ark Angel, when they all looked out through the hanger.

"Do you feel that?" said Clay as they looked out into space.

"Yes…" said Omi "What is that most tingling sensation…Feels like…static…"

They both looked up as they saw a piece of metal float by in the zero gravity of space.

"Strange…" said Dojo "What's that?"

The piece of metal seemed to magically guide its way into the hanger, as it went through the laser shield it fell to the floor with a loud clatter. They all cautiously approached the metal, the odd spark jumped from its shiny surface.

"What in the world?" said Clay as they both bent down over it. Omi reached out to touch it, but jumped back as he received a painful shock from it. They all jumped back as sparks began to flow from it like water. Slowly but surely, a yellow hand, made from pure electricity, rose from the metal. It grabbed onto the ground and gripped it hard as a man made of electricity pulled itself from the metal. Clay and Omi gasped as the electric man collapsed on the floor, before being engulfed in a bright light. As the light died down, the two of them gasped at who they saw lying there.

"Ryan?" gasped Dojo as they both ran to his side, "Is that you?"

"Uhh…" groaned Ryan as he tried to lift himself up. Omi and Clay both went either side of him and helped him to his feet.

"Ryan?" said Omi as he watched Ryan stumble on his feet, "Are you okay?"

"I think so…" said Ryan as he rubbed his head, "I think I managed to perform my…Singala Spectrumise…"

"Singala…Spectrumise?" said Omi.

"Oh no!" gasped Ryan as he remembered what happened, "Raimundo and Kimiko! They're in danger!"

"What! Danger?" gasped Clay "We got to go help them!"

"Yes…I mean no!" gasped Ryan as he checked his watch, "I can't believe I'm saying this but I need you to rescue Kimiko and Raimundo for me!"

"But…" said Omi "What about you?"

"I can't let the Ibis Cannon fire again!" said Ryan "I won't be able to make it to the Reactor room before Hannibal, so I'll run to the cannon itself and slam-dunk the fake Tesla Dynamo in it before it fires! The explosion from the fake should disrupt the firing sequence!"

"Okay Ryan!" said Clay "You can count on us!"

"Here!" said Omi as he passed Ryan a walky-talky, "I found this on one of the clones, it's a magical item that allows you to communicate with other people far away, isn't that cold?"

"Err…" said Ryan "Yeah…Cold…I got to go now…"

Ryan turned around and ran off towards the hanger exit, he only had less than a few minuets left, but nothing was going to get in his way.


So Ryan survived…(I bet most of you saw it coming…) Anywho, with less than ten minuets left, will Ryan make it? And what of Kimiko and Raimundo? R&R!
