Isiah: What up? Isiah and Tom here.

Tom: What's up?

Isiah: And welcome back to Avalor's Continued Nightmare. Last chapter, Shuriki's trust with Darkness turned into a backstab and Princess Elena managed to escape Darkness's capture.

Tom: Now she and her friends are on the chase for Darkness's airship. But the question is can they do it before he escape the lava shelter?

Isiah: That question shall be answered right now. Enjoy the next chapter.


The Chase

Mateo was driving his friends through the lava shelter chasing Darkness's airship. His eyes kept firmly on the path he was on. His hands firmly on the wheel, not letting go for the smallest of reasons.

When Mateo finally caught a sight at the moving airship, Elena stood up and said, "Keep this thing steady while I get a clear shot." She then aimed her Scepter of Light and shot her Blaze element at the airship multiple times. Only so little damage was on the airship.

Gabe found out that Elena's scepter wasn't doing much work and pulled out his Royal Guard assault rifle from the back of the seat. He then started firing the gun at the airship with Elena shooting her scepter's Blaze. Mateo managed to look back for a split second and saw Gabe with his gun.

Satisfied with what he saw in that spilt second, Mateo kept his focus on where he was going. While he was driving, something on the airship caught his attention. He saw demon Isabel climb on the back of the airship with her lazar cannon and aimed directly at the mobile.

"Incoming fire," Gabe alerted the others before Isabel started shooting her lazar cannon at the jaquin-mobile. Mateo saw this and managed to avoid the shots coming towards him. After dodging what seem like a wave of lazar shots one by one, Mateo looked at Isabel and shouted, "You're a damn good inventor, but your a shit shooter!"

"Now that you mentioned shit shooting Mateo, my assault rifle is doing shit damage on the airship," Gabe said.

"And suddenly so is my scepter," Elena addressed. "That thing's not even bulletproof, how much damage can that thing take?!"

Naomi got through to her communicator and said, "Victor, any luck on stopping Darkness's airship from where you're at?"

"I'm still having trouble finding a certain way to...-" Victor paused for a second looking at the cameras again for a moment. Then he gasped and said, "Oh shit! Carla got clocked off by some demons on the far south side!"

Mateo grunted before speaking, "Damn it Carla!"

"Somebody help me," Carla shouted through the communicator. "Papi! Mateo! Elena! They're everywhere!"

"Just hang in there Carla, we're coming," Mateo said getting ready to turn around. But he stopped due to a special someone through the communicator. "That won't be necessary, wizard boy."

"Shuriki," Mateo said softly. "What are you doing?!"

Meeting up with Carla

While Shuriki was helping Carla fend off the demons trying to come after her, Fiero got through and answered Mateo. "Don't worry Mateo. She's cool."

"You sure she's not still in her freaked out manner," Mateo asked.

"I talked her outta her little craziness. It's fine."

"If you say so," Mateo said.

Shuriki helped Carla get up and asked, "You alright Carla?"

"Just about," Carla said dusting herself off. "Thanks Shuriki."

"Yeah, for now on, we stay together. No more splitting up until Darkness and his airship are in the dirt," Shuriki said noticing more demons coming for them. She then pulled out her real Scepter of Night while Fiero pulled out his tamborita.

"You found your real Scepter of Night," Carla asked getting behind her two magically powered allies.

"Yeah, I found it in one of the demons' pockets on the way here," Shuriki said.

"Good to know," Carla said following Shuriki and Fiero through the hallway of demons. "If only me and my Papa can get our malvago magic back."

"Don't worry, you both should get them back as soon as we kill Darkness," Fiero said.

"Hope you're right."

After encountering and killing a few small waves of demons, Shuriki, Fiero, and Carla found an elevator and quickly ran inside it. It took them down to an underground hanger with unused jets. Shuriki let out an amused look and said, "Ooh, what have we here?"

"Jets," Carla cheered in excitement. "How fascinating!" Just when Carla was going to choose a jet, Mateo got through the communicator. "Victor, maybe you can pull an emergency shutdown on the exit and force Darkness to come to a stop," he said.

"That does sound like a good enough idea," Victor said.

"Hey guys! Forget about emergency exits," Carla said. "We found an underground hanger!"

"Oh no! You are not using anything from there," Victor said sternly. "We're in enough heat with Darkness as it is."

"But Papa," Carla said in a slight whiny voice.

"I said no Carla," Victor cut off his daughter.

"Fine," Carla sighed still going to one of the jets.

Shuriki saw that Carla was getting in one of the jets and asked, "You're still taking a jet, aren't you?"

"As soon as I know how to work this thing, I'm taking it," Carla said motioning the sorceress and the malvago to get in the jet with her.

The Airship Escapes

Victor was in the cameras watching the lava shelter jet exit close. As soon as it was closed, he got through to Mateo and said, "Okay, you shouldn't have no problem with taking down that airship now."

"Thanks Vic," Mateo said still keeping his concentration on the road. He then looked up to see that he was near the rear exit of the lava shelter where the hanger exit had the door shut.

"The door's shut! Now's our chance," Naomi said taking out a gun and shooting at the airship.

"We got you now Darky," Elena said continuing to shoot her Blaze from her Scepter of Light. Mateo decided to join the ambush and shoot attack spells from his tamborita.

"You guys might not wanna take too long on that ship. Darkness sent out reinforcements from the-" Victor cut himself off when he saw Carla, Shuriki, and Fiero in one of the jets from the hanger. "CARLA DELGADO WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!"

"Um, going after Darkness's airship," Carla answered with some guilt in her.

"Damn it, I said DON'T USE THE JET," Victor snapped.

"Well what if we don't get too close to them," Carla asked.

As Mateo and his friends were busy taking down the ship, he saw the rear hanger exit open slowly and asked, "What the...? Victor why's the hanger door opening?"

"Shit! Darkness found an emergency switch to the hanger entrance," Victor found out quickly.

"Pathetic ignorant fools," Darkness chuckled evilly. "I'm glad you decided to spend some quality time with me. Too bad I have to departure like this, but hey. My henchmen will keep all the company you want as I leave."

Mateo jumped out of the jaquin-mobile and shouted, "Tired of seeing us foil your little plan, you little shit?!"

"Yeah, why don't you be a real man and fight us yourself," Elena said pointing her Scepter at the ship.

"And not allow my servants to defend their beloved destroyer? I think not," Darkness said. "Besides, you're really gonna love seeing the demons I have coming for you."

As soon as Darkness finished his sentence, Elena turned around to see more demons coming for her. Then at the exit where more demons were seen approaching. "Shit, we're sitting ducks here."

Carla saw the demons hoard from her jet and shot four lazar beams at them, taking out a majority of them in a second. Elena then got up and said, "Carla, take whatever that thing is and go after that airship."

"I'll save some spirit demon fun just for you Mateo," Carla said to Mateo as she flew out the hanger exit.

"Please do," Mateo said seeing more demons approaching from the lava shelter inside doors. "Victor, shit's getting hairy! Get here now!"

"We're gonna die here! I know it," Naomi said keeping her gun aimed at the demons.

"Victor you need to get the hell over here," Elena demanded.

"Shit, alright. I'm coming," Victor said in the communicator.
