Chapter 6: part 4
~~~SARALYN'S POV~~~
Okay, I have to admit. When Rudy was charging towards us, I was one second away from wetting my tights. My stomach felt like it was going to jump to my throat. I glanced at Danny, who was just as nervous as I was. I took a deep breath and started shooting ghost rays at Rudy. Unfortunately, they were ricocheting off of his armor.
"Despite that he looks like Skulker, he sure is a lot better." Danny said.
"Now's not the time for joking, Danny!" I glared.
Rudy reached out and grabbed Danny by the neck. I gasped.
"Danny!" I cried. "Let him go!" Rudy started laughing. Danny kicked and thrashed around.
My insides contorted. I began to raise my hands, but I stopped. I almost killed Rudy the last time I used my manipulation powers. Am I the kind of person that would do that?
But then I heard a low, gurgling noise escape Danny's mouth. His face began to turn whiter than his hair and the glow in his eyes was dimming.
Yes. Yes, I was.
I let out a scream as my hands glowed white. Gusts of wind blew suddenly, pushing my hair back and away from my face. Rudy struggled to keep his balance and the grip he had on Danny's throat loosened, allowing him to steal a breath of air. I brought my hands together and as they separated, a ball of light formed and grew until it was the size of a Caucasian Shepherd (feel free to pause right now to look that up). Rudy was so horrified, he let go of Danny and Danny was able to get away. I chucked the ball at Rudy, throwing it so hard I felt like my arms would be ripped from their sockets. The light smashed into Rudy and sent him flying backwards into the side of the castle. The momentum and impact was so tremendous, the entire castle quivered and collapsed on top of Rudy. I stood there in shock. Danny was staring at me in awe.
"How did... you...?" Danny said. I looked at my hands. The white glow was beginning to fade.
"I don't know." I said, shaking my head. "Let's get out of here." I said.
Danny looked over at Rudy, who was moaning from the serious can of butt-whooping that he received. That and the tons of debris that was stacked on top of him.
"Come on." I said. I took his hand and led him away from the scene.
