Isiah: What up? Isiah and Tom here.

Tom: What's up?!

Isiah: And welcome back to Avalor's Continued Nightmare. Last time, Darkness managed to escape the lava shelter in his airship with Carla, Shuriki, and Fiero hot on his trail.

Tom: Will they be able to stop Darkness and put him down for good or will they become more victims of Darkness's henchmen?

Isiah: Let's continue on with the story and find out.

Sky Chase

In Darkness's airship, Isabel was charging up her laser cannon when Darkness himself approached her. She got up and said, "Darkness. Is something the matter?"

"Indeed there is," Darkness responded. "We lost Princess Elena to her damned wizard fool. Now her sinful enemies are on our case as well."

Isabel looked over to the window and saw Carla's jet flying towards the airship. "You mean that Delgado child out there," she asked pointing at the jet. Darkness looked out the window as well and let out a smirk.

"Let them try their luck," Darkness said.

"What?! Let them attack," Isabel said in complete shock. "But...they'll destroy the airship!"

The spirit demon let out an evil chuckle and said, "That's what I'm counting on." He then seen Isabel look of worry and said, "Trust me. I know what I'm doing."

"If you say so," Isabel said going back to her laser cannon.

In the jet not so far from the airship, Carla was flying with Shuriki and Fiero. She had her finger set on the missile launch button and got closer to the airship before shooting the missiles at the airship. To her surprise, it took quite some good damage from the missiles.

Fiero saw that the airship was starting to smoke and said, "Uh, there's probably an easier way to do this."

"No doubt," Carla said firing more missiles at the airship. Watching as it took more damage. Soon the airship started to go into flames and started to go down.

"YES! DARKNESS'S AIRSHIP IS DESTROYED," Shuriki shouted.

"You did it Carla! They're going down," Fiero said watching the airship go down. Carla got close and saw that the airship ended up crashing into one of the Maru temples and exploding on impact. She then landed on the side of the destroyed temple and got out with Shuriki and Fiero.

Shuriki took out her Scepter of Night and walked over to the carnage first. Seeing dead demons from the airship before seeing Darkness's body laying with them. The sorceress smirked at what happened and it quickly faded when Darkness's body poofed and vanished in front of her along with the demon bodies.

"What the hell," Shuriki said out loud as Carla came up to her, seeing what just happened.

"His body just disappeared. But how," Carla asked.

There was a voice coming from the insides of the destroyed airship. "Once again, you fools have been tricked," it said as the carnage started to slowly disappear only leaving the destroyed temple.

"Oh shit," Carla said turning to Shuriki. "We better tell Mateo about this."

"You're right," Shuriki said not liking what she had to do next. "He is not going to take this so well."

One More Hiding Place

Not so long after, Mateo and the others arrived at the scene and was told about the airship disappearing.

"How? How did he manage to escape," Mateo asked not believing what he was told.

"I'm not sure," Shuriki answered him. "Darkness is one hell of a spirit demon...unlike Nightmare."

"Yeah thanks for reminding me on that," Mateo said with sarcasm.

"So now what," Gabe asked. "We try to make our way back to Avalor before Darkness?"

"On foot? Before Darkness? We won't have a chance in hell," Elena spoke up.

Fiero stood up with Elena and said, "She right." He then took out a glass ball and continued. "Besides, I'm looking at my glass ball which shows the map of the entire kingdom and it doesn't look like he's anywhere near it."

Mateo and the others looked with him. "It's not," he asked.

"Nope. In fact it looks like he's not even in my glass ball map of the earth," Fiero said.

"Well where could he be if he's nowhere in the world," Elena asked.

With a smirk, Fiero answered Elena. "There's only one place Darkness and his henchmen could be."

"And that is?"

"Nightmare's version of the spirit world."

Everyone gasped at hearing this and Shuriki was the first to speak on this. "Nightmare has her own version of the spirit world?!"

"Sadly she does. Thanks to Darkness's continuation of destruction," Fiero said. "Luckily, we can put an end to it with this." Fiero then brought out a dark emerald and gave it to Mateo. He held it and asked, "What's this?"

"Nightmare's diamond from her version of the Scepter of Light. It's the only way we can get inside her spirit world."

"And you're sure this is where Darkness is at," Mateo asked.

"It's the only hiding place he has left. The only heavily armed hiding place he has left," Fiero said correcting himself quickly.

Mateo looked into the diamond and started to speak to it. "Dark diamond. Take us to Nightmare's spirit world." The diamond then started to rise from Mateo's hand and shine brightly in front of everyone. Soon opening a portal and landing back in Mateo's hand.

"Welp, it's now or never," Mateo said walking inside the portal with everyone else deciding to follow himself inside.

Inside the Dark Spirit World

As soon as everyone entered the dark spirit world, they took a moment to look at their surroundings. Nighttime black skies, black passageways and roads, random demonized creatures minding their own business. It was basically Hell but without the fire.

Gabe was the first to speak on what he was seeing. "Whoa. Now this is intimidating."

Naomi looked at Gabe with a satisfied look and asked, "Think you've met your match Gabe?"

"I said it's intimidating. Not too scary," Gabe corrected.

"I would say it's kinda scary," Carla spoke up. "Just look at the environment here."

Elena spoke up. "This isn't helpful you guys. We can't just second guess our choice of coming here."

"She's right," Shuriki spoke up as well. "If we're gonna set things back to the way they were, we have to do this, and we have to do it now."

"I couldn't agree more," Fiero said turning around with a weird look. "Hold on. Something isn't right here."

"What is it," Victor asked.

Fiero quickly knew what was wrong and said, "Mateo's missing!"

"WHAT?! He's missing," Elena exclaimed.

"Again," Gabe said in frustration. "I swear, the achievement Mateo's trying to get with finding Darkness is gonna get him killed!"

Elena took a stand and said, "No it won't. We're gonna look for him."

"But he could be anywhere in this damn world," Gabe complained.

"Yeah. How would we even know where to look," Victor spoke up. He turned around to see a dark palace far up a mountain.

Carla saw the dark palace after Victor and said, "Well if Mateo already confronted Darkness somewhere, that palace is bound to be one of the locations."

"Hmm. Guess we know where we're going," Elena started going for the palace.
