They all backed together so they were all back to back, forming a small circle.
"Hannibal!" called Omi as they all looked around, "Where are you? Show yourself!"
"VERY WELL!" boomed Hannibal's voice, "HERE I COME!"
Suddenly the stone ground beneath them begins to rumble and crack, the water around the stone platform began to churn and swirl as the whole room began to shake.
"What's going on?" gasped Raimundo as he tried to stop himself from falling over.
"PEEK-A-BOO!" boomed Hannibal's voice as the stone ground shattered near them, a large bundle of wires and pipes shot out of the hole and wrapped themselves together. The large tentacle like thing shot towards them like a whip, with a large crack it hit the ground hard, just as they all leapt out if the way. Ryan looked up at the tentacle as it rose out of the ground, leaving a large hole in the ground.
"What the hell is going on?" gasped Ryan. The tentacle came down on Ryan again, but he rolled out of the way as it made another large hole in the ground. Omi roared as he spun through the air and went straight through the tentacle, bits of metal and wire went everywhere as Omi cut through tentacle. It tumbled over and landed on the floor with a thud.
"OH NO!" boomed Hannibal's sarcastic voice, "WHAT SHALL I DO? I KNOW!"
Suddenly the stone ground erupted as more metal tentacles came out of the ground and began thrashing themselves at the Dragons.
"Damn it!" yelled Raimundo as he fought off two tentacles, "What's going on?"
There was a sudden yelp as one of the tentacles hit Ryan hard, he flew through the air and crashed into Raimundo. Both of them rolled over each other and crashed into Kimiko who was wedged between two tentacles. Clay was being swung upside-down by his feet as the tentacle swung him into the pile of Xiaolin warriors. Omi was wrapped up tight and spun like a top into the pile. Ryan looked up as the walkie-talkie fell out of Raimundo's pocket and clattered on the floor.
"Hello? Hello?" called Jack's voice "Where is everyone? What's happening down there?"
"Jack!" said Ryan as he grabbed the walkie-talkie, "What's going on? Why is Hannibal still alive?"
"I don't know how…" said Jack "But somehow Hannibal's spirit has merged with the main computer of the Shadow Ecliptis!"
Ryan's eyes widened as he looked at the walkie-talkie.
"Does that mean…" gasped Ryan. Suddenly the whole place began shaking again as more tentacles burst out of the ground.
"Hannibal has complete control over the entire place!" cried Jack's voice.
There was a large crash as a tentacle burst out of the ground below them, scattering them around the room. There was a splash as Ryan landed in the water around the platform, bits of rock and metal hit Ryan as the current washed debris into him.
"TIME FOR ME TO FINISH YOU!" boomed Hannibal's voice as more tentacles burst out of the ground around Ryan, "YOU WILL BE JOINING YOUR FATHER VERY SOON!"
Ryan leapt to his feet and ran at the tentacles, he roared as he spun through them, trying to cut them up. He managed to get through a few of them, but one grabbed him around the waist and held him in the air.
"YOU CAN'T BEAT ME!" laughed Hannibal "I HAVE THE POWER OF THE ECLIPSE REACTOR IN ME!"
"The Eclipse Reactor!" gasped Ryan as he looked up at Eclipse Reactor, it was still buzzing loudly.
"Guys!" called Ryan "We need to take out the Reactor!"
They all looked up as he said that, Ryan roared as he burst out the tentacles grasp and landed on the floor. He ran through the forest of tentacles that tried to grab him, through the thickness of metal and wires, he could see the others fighting their way through the tentacles.
"Ryan!" called Kimiko as she burst out in front of him, "You okay?"
"Never better!" called Ryan as he grinned at her, he grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her towards the Eclipse Reactor. Omi, Clay and Raimundo joined them as they made their way through the thrashing whips towards the reactor.
"Come on!" called Ryan as he jumped onto the stairs and began to run up towards the Reactor, "We're so close!"
They ran up the stairs, dodging more tentacles as they burst out of the shrine that the reactor sat on. They climbed to the top and advanced to the reactor, Kimiko immediately dived to the control panel and began typing like mad.
"OH NO YOU DON'T!" boomed Hannibal's voice "NOT IF I CAN HELP IT!"
Suddenly the large sphere that floated above them began to speed up its rotation. Energy began to arc from the sphere as the whole reactor began to shake.
"Kimiko!" gasped Ryan as they all stepped away from the reactor, "What's going on?"
"The Reactor!" gasped Kimiko "It's overreacting! Hannibal's sucking all the energy from it!"
There was a sudden bang as a large ball of dark energy flowed from the reactor; everyone was blown clear as the energy blasted them off the top of the shrine.
"Damn…" groaned Ryan as he tried to get to his feet, but the burns from the dark energy kept him down, "So that's what dark energy feels like…"
There was a clattering noise as something landed near him, he looked up and saw that his Tesla Dynamo landed in front of him.
"My Tesla Dynamo!" said Ryan as he picked it up, "Alright!"
He picked it up and looked at it, but something was wrong. It didn't have its shine it normally had. He looked up and saw that the other eight elemental Wu had been blasted clear too.
"Uh oh" gasped Omi as he picked up his, "Hannibal has sucked up all the Elementa's power!"
"You mean they are as useless as a chocolate teapot?" gasped Clay as he picked up his. Suddenly the whole room began to shake and tilt towards one of the walls.
"Oh, what now?" gasped Kimiko "Are we falling again?"
The shaking was so strong that they all fell to the ground.
"Guys!" called Jack's voice from Raimundo's walky-talky, "Hannibal has absorbed all the energy from the eight Elementa and is controlling the Shadow Ecliptis as it is falling to earth, he has become one with the space station and is determined to keep it crashing to Earth!"
"In other words" said Raimundo "We're doomed again? Jack?"
"AHHHHHH!" screamed Jack's voice as he ran around the control room.
"Hello?" said Raimundo "Jack? Is anyone there? Dojo? Chucky?"
"Damn it!" groaned Ryan "What are we going to do? Hannibal is far too powerful now!"
"Calm down" said Kimiko as she paced the floor around him, "There must be something we can do…"
"If there is, how long do we got?" said Ryan "Raimundo, find out how long we have?"
"Hello?" yelled Raimundo into the walky-talky "Anyone there?"
"Rai!" said Dojo's voice "You got to do something!"
"We know!" said Raimundo "How long do we have though?"
"Umm…" said Dojo "Only three minuets…"
Raimundo's face fell as he heard that.
"Rai? What is it?" said Kimiko "Is it bad?"
He sighed as he looked back at her.
"Okay, it's bad…" said Kimiko.
"Three minuets…" said Raimundo.
Kimiko groaned as she picked up her elemental Wu and held it to her chest.
"Well guys…" sighed Kimiko "This is it…"
Ryan walked behind her and rested a hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry…" said Ryan quietly so only she could hear, "It wasn't your fault…We did everything we could…"
Kimiko's bottom lip quivered as her head drooped, she then felt Ryan's arms go around her, holding her tight.
"Ryan…" thought Kimiko "You always seemed to make things better…"
She closed her eyes and began to remember all the moments she had spent with him; she smiled slightly as she remembered all the happiness that he had brought her.
"OW!" yelled Ryan as he suddenly leapt back, clutching his hand, "You burnt me!"
Kimiko looked down at her chest where Ryan's hands were, she saw that her elemental Wu was burning fiercely.
"Well you shouldn't have been touching my chest…" said Kimiko as she blushed at Ryan, her eyes widened as she realised what just happened, "My Wu's power has returned!"
"Kimiko" said Omi "What where you doing?"
"Well, I was thinking about me and Ryan…" said Kimiko "And how great it has been…"
"That's it!" said Omi as he punched his hand, "Kimiko activated her Wu because of good memories"
Everyone gave him a clueless look.
"Hannibal, because of his negative evilness, has absorbed all the negative energy from the Elementa" said Omi "But if we use the positive energy, which is triggered by positive feelings, we could use it to counter Hannibal's power!"
"Who will fight him?" said Raimundo "Who can handle that level of power?"
"Well…Who's the only one who's one level ahead of us?" said Clay. Everyone immediately looked at Ryan.
"What?" sighed Ryan "Me again?"
"Who else has Singala powers?" said Raimundo.
"I see your point…" said Ryan "But won't using all the elements be dangerous?"
"If we use them together it won't be, we will power you up" said Omi "But we need someone to weaken him first"
"Hmm…" thought Ryan "I don't know"
"Ryan" said Kimiko. Ryan looked at her; there was no need for her to say anything because Ryan understood exactly how she felt.
"Okay!" said Ryan "Let's do this!"
They all stood around Ryan, holding the elemental Wu and their sub Elementa.
"Okay guys" said Omi "Think of happy thoughts"
They all closed their eyes as they thought hard, and one by one, they powered Ryan up.
"Wind and Thunder" said Raimundo.
"Earth and Metal" said Clay.
"Water and Ice" said Omi. Ryan looked at Kimiko, he could tell by the smile on her face she was thinking about the two of them.
"Fire and Psyche" said Kimiko as she looked at him and smiled. Ryan smiled back as he felt the eight elements flow around him. A ball of light grew in front of him as he focused his friend's energy around him.
"Okay guys" said Ryan "When I weaken Hannibal, make sure you bring all the Elementa to me, I'll do the rest…"
They all nodded in agreement as they all stepped back. Ryan began to feel more powerful than he ever felt as he began to hover in the air.
"Ryan…" said Kimiko "Remember…I love you, nothing can change that…"
Ryan smiled as he looked above him; a bright light was shining on him.
"It's time to end this…" said Ryan "SINGALA OVERDRIVE!"
R&R!
