-CHAPTER TEN - CONFRONTATION-

-SNUFFLES' TEMPLE-

The Boltvengers and Boltians walk up the stairs to Snuffles' temple

"Stop!" The guards yell

James extends his arms and punches both the guards in the face

They make it in the temple, and they see Snuffles sitting on his throne

Snuffles laughs as he sees them approach

"James! Shay! You've survived this far!" Snuffles says

James and Shay stop walking, realizing who they are facing

Snuffles lowers his hood and removes his mask, revealing his scarred face to James, Shay and the rest of them

"Snuffles?" Shay asks

"You know this guy?" Kyle asks

"Oh, we do alright." Snuffles responds

"Go on. Tell them." Snuffles asks

Shay stands still, shocked

"Tell them how you left us for dead!" Snuffles yells

"James, Shay, who is this guy?" Kyle asks

"Tell them! Either of you!" Snuffles yells

Shay nods "Fine." She says

-1 YEAR AGO-

-PLANET ZERO-

Snuffles, James, Shay, Boarp and Alex exit the shuttle to obtain resources from Planet Zero

"We've arrived safely, HQ." James says

The team begins to take samples from the ground,

James and Snuffles rappel down to a lake, full of a green lava-like substance

James walks over to the edge of the lake, admiring the view

The lake also gains the interest of Snuffles, walking beside James

"Goddamn, that's cool." James says

"Yeah, thanks for bringing me along here, James." Snuffles says

"No problem." James responds

James crouches down and grabs some of the green substance, a massive explosion erupts from the lake

"Shit!" James yells

James and Snuffles rush to get to their rappels and begin to climb

They're about to make it to the top, when a rumble cuts Snuffles' rappel, Alex and Boarp quickly go to pull Snuffles up

James makes it to the top, and begins to assist Alex and Boarp

"I can't hold on for much longer!" Snuffles yells

"We got you, don't worry!" Alex yells

Another rumble cause Snuffles to lose grip and fall down to the bottom of the cliff, as the green substance covers his body, and muffles his screams

James, Shay, Boarp and Alex watch in horror as rocks crush Snuffles body

One final rumble causes Alex and Boarp to fall down the cliff, James tries to grab one of their arms, but Shay pulls him away before he falls off too

James and Shay run to their shuttles, as one last explosion occurs as they teleport back to Earth, and their shuttles crash as they arrive home

-PRESENT DAY-

"Thank you, Shay." Snuffles says

"How are you alive?!" Shay yells

"That substance that I fell in, it gave me this power. That's why the rocks didn't kill me, yet killed Alex and Boarp." Snuffles explains

"Why are you doing this?" Twowphee asks

"I want revenge for Alex and Boarp." Snuffles explains

"You want us dead for an accident?" James asks

"I don't care if it was an accident! They're dead!" Snuffles yells

"You caused the deaths of your best friends!" Snuffles yells

"You're doing all this, because of revenge?" Kyle asks

"I will do whatever it takes to get my revenge on them." Snuffles explains

Snuffles re-equips his mask and raises his hood

Snuffles charges at James, throwing a punch, but the attack gets blocked by Kyle's shield

James extends his fist, punching Snuffles in the face

"It was an accident, Snuffles! Calm down and fix this!" James yells

"You want me to calm down?!" Snuffles yells

"I'll calm down when the both of you are fucking dead!" Snuffles yells

Snuffles fires laser at them, Grim jumps in front with Kyle to block the laser

"Do your thing, Shay." Twowphee whispers

"Right." Shay responds, turning invisible

Shay quietly walks behind Snuffles, preparing to take him down

As Shay goes to attack, Snuffles turns his head, and stops firing his lasers to kick Shay in her stomach, knocking her into his throne

Snuffles approaches Shay, fists glowing

Snuffles goes to punch Shay, when James rushes over

"Snuffles, wait…" James says

Snuffles stops, but doesn't respond, He turns his head to look at James

"If you're gonna kill one of us, don't make it her." James asks

Snuffles takes a moment to decide, ultimately deciding to attack James

Snuffles goes to punch James, but his punch is blocked by Grim

"Go." Grim says, nodding his head towards Shay

James rushes over to Shay, as the rest prepare to fight Snuffles

Kyle throws his shield at Snuffles, giving Grim time to charge a repulsor blast, and he fires it at Snuffles

Kamala forms platforms to run on, running above Snuffles, forming a giant fist, punching Snuffles

Snuffles punches Kamala's fist, shattering it to pieces

Pat entangles Snuffles in branches, but Snuffles easily breaks free

Aya and Twowphee fire webs at Snuffles, hoping to get him stuck, but it fails and he breaks free

Adam fires his blasters at Snuffles, but they do nothing against his armor

All of them stop, while Snuffles still stands, not affected by anything

"Is that all?" Snuffles asks

Erin taps Adam's shoulder, pointing to the gravity mines on his hip

Adam grabs one of them, throwing it at Snuffles' face

Snuffles catches the gravity mine

"I would recommend we move." Adam suggests

Everyone runs, except Snuffles, who throws the gravity mine right as Adam activates it

The gravity mine lands on the floor, and drags Snuffles towards it

Although he gets dragged towards it, he still manages to resist the force

Outside, the heroes think about what to do

"We can't do shit to him!" Adam says

Then, Kyle realizes something

"They're still inside." Kyle says

Kyle rushes back inside the temple

Snuffles approaches James and Shay

"I would've waited an eternity for this. It's over you two." Snuffles says

Kyle throws his shield at Snuffles

"Let them go!" Kyle yells

Shay takes this opportunity to trap Snuffles in a forcefield, allowing them to run away from the temple

The forcefield around Snuffles disappears, and he runs outside to chase them, finding them nowhere to be seen

Snuffles kneels on the ground, punching the ground

"The both of you are fucking useless!" Snuffles yells at the guards

"There were too many of th-" A guard responds, getting his head blown up by a laser fired by Snuffles

Snuffles stand back up and approaches the last guard

"Next time they are here, are you going to do your GODDAMN JOB!?" Snuffles yells

"Yes, sir." The guard responds

"You fucking better, or you'll END UP LIKE HIM!" Snuffles yells

Snuffles enters his temple again, as he awaits their return
