Chapter 6: Attacked!

One week later…

"They're cool. Bow ties are cool," Lily replied in English accent as she tugged on the bow tie.

"Lil, you can stop now," Jade complained as she took her cape off.

"But I'm the Doctor," Lily complained motioning to her Doctor Who costume.

"And I'm Samus Aran ," Melissa replied pulling her blonde wig off so she could ruffle her rainbow hair. (yes she had gone thru with it)

"I give up," Jade complained as three continued to walk from the parking lot back to their dorm.

You see today Lily, Jade, and Melissa had dressed up, or cosplayed as Melissa insisted the called, so they could go to the convention for comics/tv shows/cartoons/anime/video games they loved.

For example Lily had dressed up as the Eleventh Doctor, complete with fez and sonic screwdriver, Jade was Power Girl, and Melissa was Samus Aran from that Metroid game.

The three girls had had major fun today but it was rather late at night now, though Lily wasn't that worried, she was after all Lily Phantom. Plus last guy that tried to hit on her Melissa had given him a nice kick in the 'boys'. Lily loved her friends.

"Victory," Melissa joked wrapping both Jade and Lily in a hug laughing manically, Jade joined in but Lily didn't as her preflex seemed to activate.

Lily immediately forced Melissa and Jade to the ground as she turned only to get her right arm caught between a mouth filled with ragged teeth.

"AHHHHH!"

"LILY!" Jade and Melissa cried as they jumped up and stared at the creature that had Lily's arm in its mouth.

It was big and ugly. It was at least 11 ft. tall and 8ft. wide. It was black and looked like it had scaly skin with look almost like lava running between them. It had claws with jagged talons and a spiked tail. It's face was the most horrifying as it was an ugly and terrifying cross between a bat and snake, not to mention it's jagged teeth were digging deeper into Lily's arm causing her ectoplasmic green blood to bleed out.

Lily screamed louder as the teeth dug deeper and quickly reacted by creating her ghost rings and sent the thing flying back while little Lily Phantom. Too bad that didn't stop the pain. Lily staggered backwards falling it to the waiting arms of Jade and Melissa as she cradled her bloody arm.

"Lily, you have some explaining to do later," Melissa commented as she held the ghost girl up.

"Later," Jade commented tearing the Power Girl cape so she could wrap it around Lily's gashes, "What was that thing?"

"I don't know. Not a ghost though. My ghost sense didn't go off," Lily concluded as she looked over at the thing as it got up, "Get back guys."

Lily raised her left hand and blasted at the creature only for it to absorb it almost and look at Lily almost as if she was food. It let out a horrifying cross between a hiss and growl as it charged at Lily looking its chops getting the last of her blood of its lips.

It charged at Lily till another scaly monster tackled it to the ground.

This one though was an orange color and had wings. Wait that was the dragon Levi had fought two weeks ago!

Lily couldn't believe her eyes as she watched the black…Thing and the orange dragon wrestle with each other on the ground. The Thing tried to bite the dragon, only to get bitten first, making it scream a little before it took its claw and gave the dragon a wicked scratch on the side. The dragon made a strange screaming roaring sound then bit the thing hard on its shoulder, making it scream in its strange hissing growling way. The Thing pushed the dragon off, and the two of them circled each other like beasts. "What the Hell is going on?!" Jade screamed. The dragon sprang forward and turned, swiping at the Thing with its spiked tail. The Thing dodged it and hit the dragon full on with its own tail.

The dragon flared its wings and flew up, releasing a mighty inferno from its mouth. The Thing stood there and let the flames engulf it then the dragon stopped breathing fire. The Thing was completely unaffected. The Thing laughed and said in a voice that screamed EVIL, "You are nothing to me, lizard." The Thing then grabbed the dragon by its tail and slammed it into the ground, laughing the whole time. The dragon tried to fly off, only to be grabbed by one of its wings and again slammed into the ground, its wing snapped like a bunch of twigs and the Thing laughed at the poor creature's suffering.

"Dracos!"

Lily, Jade, and Melissa turned to see an Middle Eastern looking girl dressed in an orange t-shirt, black jacket, blue jeans, violet shoes along with a black fedora and glasses covering her bright blonde hair and grey eyes and black backpack on her back.

"Witch!" The thing hissed as the girl raised her hand.

"PI KUHA!" The girl cried as the thing hiss glowing an orange color before running off.

"Damn!" The girl cursed as she ran up to the dragon, "It's okay Dracos you tried."

Lily studied the girl talking to the dragon as the dragon suddenly shrunk to a toy size. Then she realized, "Kara?"

The girl, Kara, turned and stared at the three girls behind her, "Lily Phantom? Great…"
