Gibson rose as in his new form. He was no longer a monkey, but a vampire. He pulled his lips back and reveled his fangs. Like Novas, his were sharp; his face had an expression of anxiousness and delight. He took a deep breath and looked around the room.
"Welcome" said Jin-may sounding approved.
"I never knew I could feel this, this king of empowerment before" Gibson smeared. "It feels exhilarating!"
The rest of the team gazed in horror. Not one, not two, but three of their team members were turned into this evil and vial form; not knowing if they could ever return back into there normal forms made it all the more horrifying.
Gibson took a step forward, looking at his feast. "Ahhh" he groaned with delight as he took in a breath of there sent, "I parched!" Before he could pounce and begin attacking, Nova pulled him down.
"We must discuss this" she growled as she turned to Jin-may. She nodded and with a small snap they were gone.
"THIS IS INSANE" Sprx bellowed!
"I agree" said Antauri "this is getting out of hand."
Sprx frowned, "But what can we do? There monsters aiming at destroying us and taking over Shuggazoom!"
"Maybe not necessarily" replied Antauri.
"What do you mean" asked Otto?
Antauri turned to Chiro, "I think you can explain Chiro. Think."
Chiro knew that this was some sort of test. To get him thinking, this is what Gibson and Antauri wanted him to do. "Whoever turned Jin-may into that witch. Could of killed her" he guessed.
Antauri nodded, so he continued. "But they didn't, they spared her for a reason" it suddenly became clear "so she could turn everyone else into monsters." Antauri again nodded with approval.
"But why" asked Otto? "And who would even want to turn us into monsters; Skeleton King is gone."
"Perhaps people who are loyal to him. Living or Dead."
"This is insane!"
Otto half grinned, "Sprx you already said that."
"I know, but this whole thing deserves to be called insane at-least eighty times!"
Chiro also grinned "You can say that again." Chiro then put on a straight face "We have to find out who's really behind this." Chiro saw out of the corner of his eye Otto already trying to answer, "But it's not Jin-may or Nova or Gibson. I mean the person who turned them into that."
"Yea" agreed Sprx "then we'll know for sure how to fight the piece of scrap metal who's been messing with us!"
"How" asked Otto. "They disappear out of thin air!"
Chiro's frowned at that. He didn't know that part.
Antauri stepped in "I may have a suggestion."
"Well, you should of thought of that sooner" complained Sprx! Antauri shrugged.
Gibson stood up "But why must we leave the boy?" Jin-may and Nova had explained the whole plan. How they must turn the team into monsters, follow Scraperton and his commands and leave the boy unharmed.
"We don't know ourselves" said Jin-may.
"It's frustrating" growled Nova. "But we must go forth with whatever this dunce wants...for now."
"So you must follow us."
Gibson nodded his head, "This will be simple."
"Tick Tock, I dearly hope so" came a voice.
Gibson jumped, "Who's there?"
"The moron who's controlling us" whispered Nova.
Chiro, Sprx and Otto clutched onto each others hands as Antauri (in ghost form) took them through walls. From one, the boys herd voices, they were sure that the rest of there team was behind it. As they came close to the wall Antauri said,
"I'll stop in-between so we will stay hidden."
Everyone understood and kept quite as thy listened.
"I see you found another one, Tick Tock. Excellent!" Gibson growled at the site of Scraperton as he spoke. "Now there just three more, Tick Tock."
"I remember you" Gibson said, "Scraperton."
"Tick Tock, isn't it facetious Gibson how now I'm now ruling you? Tick Tock, miracles do happen."
Nova whispered "More like nightmares happen." Scraperton either didn't hear or just ignored Novas ignorance.
Otto was shocked "Scraperton!?"
"Otto, shut-up" muttered Sprx! "Do you want us to get caught?"
"Sorry, but...of all the villains we fought, Scraperton?"
Novas ears twitched as she herd faint traces of voices, Gibson also herd it. Werewolves and Vampires were excellent at hearing.
Gibson saw Novas face and nodded, they knew there was someone listening in.
"Well, Tick Tock, I must attend to my other duties. Tick Tock, I shall leave you inhumane mongrels to finish the job." Scraperton pulled out the book, muttered some words and disappeared.
"What I wouldn't do to disconnect that jerks mind" Jin-may huffed!
"We can do that later" said Nova.
Gibsons voice was a whisper, "We have company."
Jin-may grinned evilly.
"Hey, did you guys catch what they just said" asked Sprx?
Chiros got worried, "I was just about to ask you the same thing."
"Shh" Otto and Antauri hissed!
Jin-may, Nova and Gibson quietly creeped to the wall. Nova bent down and began sniffing until she smelt monkeys and a human. She stood up and pointed to the spot where they were at. Jin-may cracked her knuckles, took a deep breath and (using magic) her hands went into the wall. She immediately felt a metal body and grasped onto it. She then pulled it out of the wall.
The body was Antauri's. He and everyone else flew out of the wall and were now lying on the floor.
"Think you could out-smart us" asked Jin-may sarcastically?
Nova chuckled "It just gets easier and easier!"
The team stood, "Come on guys" Chiro begged! "We dont want to fight you!"
"Ahh Chiro" whispered Otto. "We already tried that and it doesn't really work."
Jin-may grinned "Your right." she, Nova and Gibson got into fighting stances, "It doesn't." With that, all three of them pounced on the team by surprise. Gibson had targeted Otto, Nova to Sprx, and Jin-may to Antauri and Chiro.
"Scritch Scratch, Doomthrower" Otto yelled as he unleashed his saws onto Gibson!
Gibson didn't even move, he grinned as he outstretched his wings to cover his body. The saws instantly broke as they smashed into the wings.
Otto knew he was in trouble. "Ah Oh."
Gibson then opened his wings, took flight and dove for Otto.
Sprx didn't want to hurt Nova so he decided not to use any of his defenses. He wasn't safe, so all he could think of to do (so he wouldn't die) was to run, Nova had began chancing him around the room.
"You know I wished for years that you'd chase after me" Sprx panted "but I didn't really think of it like this!"
Nova growled "Oh Shut Up! I'm starving, just get it over with for yourself!"
They continued there game of cat and mouse...or in this case wolf and monkey.
"Come On Jin-may" Chiro pleaded! "We don't want to fight you!"
"Chiro, it's to late for that" Antauri urged!
Jin-may gave an evil chuckle as she sent about thirty fire balls toward them.
"Monkey Mind Scream" Antauri yelled as he gave a high pitched scream to destroy the balls of flame!
Chiro joined in, "Chiro Spero!" He threw his (spear/lightning bolt thing) at the balls, this caused them to blow up into ashes. While the smoke cleared, Jin-may took the opportunity to surprise. At the speed of light she raced over to Antauri and pinned him down, "I saw you were in your Ghost Form when you came though the wall. Well, then you'll fit in perfectly with this."
Chiro then saw, "Nooo" he called as he raced to Antauri!
"Lo Ghost da Soul!" Chiro was to late.
Antauri began shivering on the floor as he began to turn into his form. He would turn invisible and then out back to his ordinal form. Chiro knelt to his friend is panic.
"No, not Now! I'm so sorry Antauri!"
"Ch-Chiro..." Antauri couldn't finish his sentence. His transformation was complete. Antauri was now completely white, he also wore a white cloak. His eyes, like everyone else, had eyes that were red and his hands now had long and sharp nails.
Chiro looked at him as he stood, the odds weren't good.
Nova was chasing Sprx, they were running past the group. When Sprx saw Antauri, his draw dropped. "GRAET" he thought, "we're done for!"
Gibson threw Otto from the air to the ground; he landed behind Chiro, he also saw the new ghost Antauri. He looked terrified. Then all the monsters stood together, they looked invincible.
"HaHaHa" Jin-may laughed! "When will we get hard challenges?"
"When will I eat" Nova huffed?
"As soon as we're done."
Out of nowhere, Antauri was gone.
"Where'd he go" called Otto?
Otto then was shoved against the wall and was gasping for air.
"What the heck" Sprx yelled?
Chiro knew the answer "It's Antauri." He and Sprx raced to help their green friend, who was turning even more green by the second, but were blocked by Vampire and Werewolf.
"Out of the way Gibson" Chiro turned his hand into a fist, "Thunder Punch!" Suddenly He and Gibson were tumbling on the floor fighting. Then when Sprx tried to help Chiro, Nova came in and started smashing Sprx. Jin-may just watched in delight.
Antauri still had a firm grip around Otto's neck and refused to let go, but that wasn't what Otto was paying attention to. Otto knew the Robot better then anyone. He knew every wire, cord, cable, tube, vent. Thats what he was trying to find, the vent door. When he found it he soon had an idea. Chiro and Gibson were coming closer and closer to him and Antauri. As Gibson pinned Chiro down he noticed Gibsons leg was about in the reach of his tail. So, making sure that Antauri wasn't looking, Otto rapped his tail around Gibsons leg and pulled in onto Antauri. Making them both fall over.
Antauri looked annoyed as he got up, "Watch it, leach!"
"Oh your one to talk, Robe Boy!" All of a sudden they pounced on each-other and started fighting.
Chiro helped Otto up, "That was smart" he said!
"Thanks. Now lets get Sprx and get out of here!"
Apparently, Antauri and Gibson were on the rode of killing each other, so Nova was forced to separate them. Letting Sprx go free.
"Com' on!" Otto directed the way to the vent and shut it behind them. The boys began to crawl through the vent tunnel in-till they were on the other side of the robot. When they found a spot big enough, they huddled up together.
"Okay, I'm gonna be the first to say it" began Sprx, "WE'RE DONE FOR!"
"Shhh, Sprx they'll hear you" Chiro hissed.
"Sorry kid, but it's the truth."
"No, it's not!"
"How do you figure that" asked Otto?
"We have to come up with a plan-"
"We already tried that" Sprx complained.
"Yea, but we have to try! I don't want to be turned into a deadly monster. Do you?" Sprx didn't have any comments to that.
"Well, do you anything" asked Otto?
"Actually yes..."
