Episode IX: A Haunting Death
SSC Crash, CZA Crash, CZA Crunch, with tape still on his head, Spyro, Hunter, Crashzilla and Stitch are seen walking, but it was getting late.
"We should stop for the night" Hunter said.
"Okay, but we'll have to continue first thing in the morning" SSC Crash said.
Then everyone went to sleep.
SSC Crash then woke up to find fog everywhere. He looked around to find everyone dead. Then a dark figure with red eyes appears in the sky. Then another figure jumps right at him and swings it's swords at him. But SSC Crash got his sword out and blocked the attacks. Then the figure with the swords knocked the sword out of SSC Crash's hands and stabbed him in the chest. SSC Crash felt as if he couldn't breath. He then looked at the figure with swords and saw a monster. But then he heard a whispering voice.
"Kill me" the whispering voice said.
Then SSC Crash woke up panting and sweating. He then looks around seeing everyone is still alive. He gave a sigh of relief. Then he realized Stitch wasn't anywhere. Then he looked around to find him. He then found him sitting all by himself looking at the city. SSC Crash then walked up to him.
"Having trouble sleeping?" SSC Crash asked.
"Ey.." Stitch said a little sad.
"Something bothering you?" SSC Crash asked.
Stitch slowly nodded and handed a picture to SSC Crash. The picture had a skinny one-eyed alien with three legs, a big alien with four eyes, himself, a pink experiment that almost looks like him and a little girl with a red shirt.
"Who are they?" SSC Crash asked.
"Ohana. Jumba, Pleakley and Angel" Stitch said with a small smile.
"Who's the girl?" SSC Crash asked.
"Lilo.." Stitch said as his smile slowly went away.
"Was she your owner?" SSC Crash asked.
"Ey... but... she died in way.. that was..." Stitch said as he paused again. Then he had a flashback to where he heard a gunshot and how Lilo looked when she was on the ground suffering.
Stitch then squeezed the picture from the painful flashback.
SSC Crash knew it was best to not let him continue.
"I'm sorry for your loss.. I'll leave you alone" SSC Crash said. Then he got up and was about to leave. He then stopped because had one more question to ask.
"By the way.. who killed her?" SSC Crash asked.
"The Hero Slayer" Stitch said.
SSC Crash was a little surprised.
'This Hero Slayer seems to be heartless, but.. at the same time.. I can't help but to think it's not really him doing the killings. I wonder if the dream I had was supposed to mean something' SSC Crash thought to himself.
Meanwhile, Hamsterveil is seeing talking with a figure on a screen.
"So, you want me to send the 'big guy'?" Hamsterveil asked.
"No. Wait to use him until last resort. He can get a little.. tricky to handle" the figure said.
"I'll just send him to them" Hamsterveil suggested.
"Do you want to rule a more destroyed world with less subjects than you have now?" the figure asked.
"No.." Hamsterveil said with a sigh.
"Good. Now send your best minions to destroy them" the figure said.
"Don't worry. I know someone who can handle them. I'll send him along with some other villains so they won't stand a chance" Hamsterveil said.
"Fair enough... just be sure to kill them all" the figure said.
Then the screen shuts off.
In a different room, we see a red koala-like creature looking out the window thinking. He then had a flashback on the little girl, Lilo's death. And he remembered how Stitch and Angel reacted as she was dying. This made him think about his choice of being evil. He felt odd now that Lilo is gone. As if it was his fault that she died.
"Leroy!" Hamsterveil said from another room.
Leroy walks into Hamsterveil's room.
"What is it?" Leroy asked.
"I have an assignment for you.." Hamsterveil said.
Back with the group, morning rises and everyone yawns and awakens. Then they heard footsteps.
"Big Daddy!" SSC Crash shouted.
Then SSC Crash, Crashzilla, Stitch and CZA Crunch hid behind one rock and CZA Crash, Hunter and Spyro hid behind another. The Big Daddy walks past the rocks and stopped. The Big Daddy then walks onto the dead grass. The Big Daddy looks down and finds a living flower. The Big Daddy stared at it as if he never seen anything like it. SSC Crash found this as an opportunity to move on.
"Come on. Let's go" SSC Crash whispered.
SSC Crash then leads everyone from the rock they were hiding behind and the rest followed. Then they all stopped. They saw a bunch of experiments mining for crystals and being whipped by dark minions and Big Daddy's are seen walking around keeping an eye on things.
"What do you think they are going to use the crystals for?" CZA Crash asked.
"They gather crystals for ruler of this dimension. They said they have something.. 'special' planned for this dimension" Stitch said.
"What is this.. 'special' thing that they are talking about?" SSC Crash asked.
"Don't know" Stitch said with a shrug.
Stitch then saw someone he knew.
"Angel" Stitch said.
"Who's Angel?" CZA Crash asked.
Stitch then pointed to a pink experiment that almost looks like him.
"Oh.. is she someone.. special?" CZA Crash asked.
"She my Boochi Boo" Stitch said.
"Boochi Boo?" CZA Crash asked.
"Judging by the way how he looks at her.. I think he loves her" SSC Crash said.
"Ah... nice going, Stitch" CZA Crash said with a smile.
"Bah.. love makes me sick" Crashzilla said.
"Come on. What about Cynd.." CZA Crash was about to say then Crashzilla knocked him out.
"Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm.. hmm.. hmm hmm" CZA Crunch said.
He tried to get the tape off his face. But then Crashzilla knocked him out too. The rest of the group just stared.
"Trust me.. we'll make better progress in freeing these experiments without them" Crashzilla said.
"Very well. Let's free the experiments. Stay in the shadows" SSC Crash said.
SSC Crash, Stitch, Spyro, Hunter and Crashzilla then started on their way to free the experiments.
Meanwhile, back with Hamsterveil. Hamsterveil is seen on a chair looking at five figures. One of them was Leroy.
"I'm counting on you five to find these rebels and kill them. They won't stand a chance" Hamsterveil said.
A/N: Who are the other four figures? Will our heros free the experiments before these figures arrive? Stay tuned to find out.
