This will probably be the last chapter for this story. Before I forget, this will be long chapter. Think of it as a grand finale for the my second story. There will be a lot of battles in this chapter. Two of the enemies belong to The Bowser Monster. They are Shadow Bone and Bloody Ben. If you want to use them, you'll need The Bowser Monster's permission. I got his permission. I only own my OCs and what's on my list.
The Final Showdown
The trio were inside New Phaaze. Then Samus found a hole in the ground.
Samus: Hey, guys! Come here!
Kai: What is it?!
Kai went over to Samus, while Ben found a slate (or slab. I'm not sure what you call it) on the wall. It was written in some kind of code. But, like always, it did not take more than ten seconds or less for Ben to solve it. (Ben is extremely smart!)
Ben: DANGER! Strong foes below! If you wish to move on to the Pit, you must prove you are worthy! These trials are not for the weak. There will be eight trials. All of which must be conquered. With only two resting points, do you wish to take the challenge? Beware! Once you go in there is no turning back!
Kai and Samus overheard what the Ben said. They all nodded and dove into the hole.
1F: Imago
Ben, Kai and Samus were astounded at what they saw hovering above them with wings beating like a helicopter. It was a huge bee-like creature, called Imago!
Imago: (Screeching)
The trio covered their ears.
Without warning, Imago swooped down at the trio. Luckily, they all dodged or it would have been over in seconds! (That's how fast Imago is!)
Kai: Shining Cutter!! …What!?
It hit Imago in the face. However, it didn't do a thing!
Samus: Not the body! Aim for the stinger!
Samus shot Imago's stinger with her Super Missiles. It did serious damage! Imago then screeched in pain. Then swooped down towards Samus to try to impale her with it's stinger! Samus dodged just in time. Ben used Chaos Inferno on Imago. I think you know what happens next. Bug Barbeque! Imago fell in a Phazon Pool. When the three thought it was over, Imago leaped out of the pool. It looked completely different this time, though. It had evolved into a giant, moth-like creature with two, scythe-like arms. It was now Perfect Imago! (That is it's fully evolved form!)
Perfect Imago: (Louder screech)
Samus: Oh, no…
Kai: Samus! What do we do?!
Ben: Sho-cue and I will handle this oversized abomination!
(Sho-cue looks a lot—but not completely—like a Blue-eyes White Dragon. He has a gem on his head and carries sword(s). I don't know if I am correct or not. Ask T.B.M. if you want to find out.)
Sho-cue: You called, Ben. Well, looks like this place needs an Exterminator!
Perfect Imago reproduced some eggs, which had immediately hatched! (I got that from Final Fantasy XII.)
Ben: Samus! Kai! Take care of it's offspring, while we take care of Big Mama!
Samus & Kai: Right!
Perfect Imago used Toxic Powder. But, Kai flapped his wings and blew away not only the Toxic Powder, but the Imago Larva as well! The Imago Larva slammed against the wall and they were dead instantly! Perfect Imago was mad, now! Suddenly, a weak spot appeared on it's head!
Kai: Ben! Sho-cue! Look at Imago's head!
They did and Ben used Chaos Tornado, (I think that's what it's called) to stop Perfect Imago from moving. Then Sho-cue stabbed Imago's weak spot with his sword(s)! With Imago screeching in pain, Sho-cue withdrew his sword(s) and Imago collapsed on the ground. It was finally over! But, they were all transported the 2nd floor, before they could rest!
B1: Omega Weapon
This time it was the Omega Weapon. (Final Fantasy Fans should know how hard it is to kill this thing.) It looks like—in my story—a huge,silver dragon standing on two legs and carrying a giant sword.
Kai: Let me handle this one!
Kai unsheathed his sword, Faf-neer, and prepared for battle.
Ben: Kai. Before you take on the Omega Weapon, drink this potion. It will heal you and grant you protection against physical attacks.
Kai drank the potion and felt stronger! Then said, "Thanks, Ben."
Ben grinned and said, "No problem! Now get out there and kick some Omega Weapon butt!"
Kai nodded and the battle began.
Omega: DIE!!
Omega slashed at Kai! But, Kai didn't take any damage.
Kai: (grin) Shining Ray!
Omega took little damage. (That is how tough—to me—Omega's hide is.)
Omega: NOVA FLARE!!
Omega opened it's maw and shot out a huge beam of light! Kai was healed and had gained a little power. (Whenever Kai is hit with a light attack, he is healed and gains a little power.) The barrier around Kai faded.
Omega: NOW I'VE GOT YOU!!
Omega slashed at Kai two times. Kai was hurt.
Kai: Shining Counter!!
Kai slashed at Omega twice! Omega blocked, but Kai's attack ripped right through it and through Omega as well! Omega was dead. Once again, the trio were transported to the next floor.
B2: Phazon Flaahgra
This time, there was no sign of an enemy, just Phazon Flora and a huge, blue flower surrounded by a pool of Phazon. (Those who played Metroid Prime should know where this is going.) Kai was going to investigate the giant flower.
Samus: GET AWAY FROM THAT FLOWER!!
Kai: Huh? GUH!
Kai was entangled by Phazon Vines that came out of the ground, and was being squeezed to death! Suddenly! Light filled the entire room and it was coming from Kai! Then the giant flower opened-up to reveal a different kind of Flaahgra. This one's body was made of hardened, blue Phazon. While the sickles were made of hardened, red Phazon.
Samus: Oh, no! Kai is being used as a sun lamp! We have to free him! It's the only way to weaken it without hurting Kai!
Kai was struggling to get free, but it was no use.
Ben: Yes but, how are we going to cut him free?!
Suddenly, Luna appeared out of nowhere and slashed at the vines with her spear's sharp tip to free Kai! Kai was free, but for some reason, Phazon Flaahgra wasn't weakening!
It was mad!
Phazon Flaahgra roared and tried to cut Luna, but she was far, too fast! As she dodged, Luna saw a bloated spot on it's back!
Luna: There's a weak spot on Flaahgra's back!
She used her mental powers to tell them how to destroy it. Kai, Samus and Ben nodded.
Flaahgra was getting tired and fell to the ground panting.
Luna: NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!!
Ben used his Chaos Inferno to soften the bloated Phazon spot on it's back. Then Samus used her Flamethrower Beam Combo to help! Finally, Kai ripped right through it's weak spot with his Shining Cutter, shattering the plant monster in a million pieces. They were all transported to the next floor after that.
B3: Shadow Bone & Shadow Kai
Kai and Ben had no idea who they were about to face. (I just got the descriptions for them.) Kai saw a mirror-image of himself. But, he had dark scales on his body, his eyes were blood-red, his belly was dark-red and his under-wings were black. Ben felt a powerful and dark presence. Then he saw that Kai and his reflection looked completely different in color, but not in shape. He remembered there was a dangerous mirror called "The Mirror of Darkness" on a scroll in his castle back on Dragtionous. Then it hit him.
Ben: Kai!! Get away from that mirror!!
Ben ran over to Kai and knocked him away from The Mirror of Darkness. However, the mirror had already finished cloning an "evil" Kai. If that wasn't bad enough, Shadow Bone came out of the mirror as well! (Shadow Bone's upper-half is a skeleton of a dragon, while his lower-half is snake-like and has black skin.)
Shadow Bone: (laughing evilly) Finally, I am free!! Oh, and it looks like I have a partner.
Kai: He...he's me!?
Shadow Bone turned to face Kai.
Shadow Bone: So, you're Kai!? I have a good name for your evil-half. How about Shadow Kai?!
Ben: You may "look" nasty, but you still "act" like a clown, Shadow Bone!
Shadow Bone: (growls) Who dares to mock me?!
He turned around to face Ben.
Shadow Bone: Ben!! Still have a big mouth I see.
Ben: (sarcastically) Oh. Nice come-back, Bonehead. It must have taken you years to think of that one!
Shadow Bone was furious, now! He swung at Ben, repeatedly and missed every time.
Ben: You must be getting rusty, Bonehead! You may be immortal, but you I think age has finally caught-up with you!
Shadow Bone: (roars) If you keep that up, I just might have to do something you will regret!!
Ben: What?! Shed your skin?!
Shadow Bone: (grin, then snaps fingers) Shadow Kai? Kill, Kai!! …? Shadow Kai!? …!
Shadow Kai was playing Go-Fish with Kai! (Laughs)
Shadow Bone: (Jaw falls to the ground)
Kai: Got any eights?
Shadow Kai: Go fish.
After that, Shadow Bone feinted. (Sorry. No battle on this floor.) Everyone was sent to the next floor. (End Part 1)
