The Young Keepers charged at Dr. Facilier, who stayed back while his shadow monsters charged at them.
The shadow monsters charged at the Young Keeper, except Amelia.
She ran right past everyone and headed straight for Dr. Facilier.
She and him had unfinished business.
She ran right up and both of them stood facing one another.
"So little girl," said the witchdoctor. "You ready to finish what we started?"
"This time its all fair in love and war," said Amelia. "For now I have my magic."
Dr. Facilier smiled, and then both of them made a fighting pose.
"Let's go Shadowman!" growled Amelia.
Dr. Facilier cackled and blasted black and purple flames from his scepter.
Amelia blasted white light from her hands and both of them cancelled.
Their fight was on.
Dylan saw the fight from the distance as he sliced at shadows with his sword.
Everyone battled the shadows with their magic weapons.
All Mattie and Charlie had were swords, but at least they did something against the shadows.
No matter what though, every time a shadow died, more reappeared.
Dylan just kept fighting and fighting his way through.
He swore that he would not fail to get this artifact.
The wizard hat was still glowing, meaning Facilier put a spell on it to destroy the protection spell obviously put on it, otherwise it would've been just a normal hat.
He then noticed Charlie catching up with him.
"What do you think your doing traitor?" asked Dylan.
Dylan still hated Charlie a little for sending his sister to the Underworld.
He now had a habit of nicknaming him "traitor".
"I'm going to help my girlfriend!" yelled Charlie while fighting.
"How do I know you won't let her die?" asked Dylan.
"Really?" asked Charlie. "You're going to start this up right now?"
"I'm going to get the artifact one way or another!" growled Dylan.
"Then let me help you!" yelled Charlie. "Let the traitor show he can help!"
Dylan groaned and then nodded.
Both of them sided and slashed at shadows.
With burning desperation, they fought on for their own purposes.
Amelia blasted back and forth with her magic at Dr. Facilier.
He kept smacking every blast away with his scepter like a baseball bat.
He then did a spin and blasted her with green lightning bolts.
Amelia made a white shield and attempted to hold him back.
It was really tough, knowing that Dr. Facilier had a bit of Ultimate Power shared by his brother.
She smacked away the lightning with her shield and made white spikes appear.
She then tossed them at Facilier and he tried to smack them away too.
However, since there were so many, he couldn't block them all and got hit with a bunch of them.
He was blasted back a little, but recovered immediately.
He made black tentacles appear out of his scepter and shot them at Amelia.
They all wrapped around her and engulfed her.
Facilier smiled until Amelia engulfed herself in white light and made all the tentacles explode.
She then blasted a ray of powerful white light straight at Facilier.
He was hit on impact hard, that after the light subsided, the Shadowman was cooked with steam rising from his body.
He then collapsed back on the floor, lying there beaten.
Amelia smiled and walked up to Facilier.
Charlie and Dylan finally made it through the fight and began to walk up to join her.
Amelia smiled down at the now cringing witch doctor.
"No! No! Please!" he cried out. "Spare me please!"
"Why should I spare you?" asked Amelia as her hands began to glow. "Your responsible for restarting this whole mess!"
"If you kill me my brother will have a worst fate for me than my friends do on the other side!" he cried out.
He lowered his hat and stared down.
Amelia then caught a small smile.
"But however I always do have my friends on the other side to help," he said.
Suddenly Amelia found herself being held in place by shadows.
Dr. Facilier had tricked her!
Dylan and Charlie saw it.
Dr. Facilier smiled and walked up to Amelia.
"No matter what girl," he said. "You were always so gullible."
He then reached into his coat pocket, and pulled out a talisman.
"You know what this is girl?" he asked.
Amelia snarled at him.
"It's not the talisman that holds my soul," said Facilier. "But the talisman that has made countless of your allies our slaves."
Amelia growled again.
"Fuck you and your talismans!" she yelled. "Take me and the Young Keepers will stop you no matter what!"
Facilier smiled and then grabbed the talisman with both hands.
"I'll make sure that you kill your own parents when I use you," he said. "I'll make your watching as you do it!"
Amelia closed her eyes and prepared to be taken.
But suddenly, as Facilier opened the talisman, ready to take her, she heard someone scream, "NOOOOOOOO!"
She opened her eyes to see black and red energy enveloping someone right in front of her.
She then realized, it was Charlie!
"NO!" she screamed. "CHARLIE!"
Charlie was able to turn around quickly, and mouth to her, "I love you."
With tears in her eyes, she watched Charlie get absorbed right into the talisman and disappeared before her eyes.
Once he was gone, all she saw was Dr. Facilier's frustrated face.
"Dammit," he said. "Well I guess we get to use the traitor again."
He then noticed Dylan running up to him.
"Here boy!" he yelled. "Let this distract you!"
He pointed his staff at Amelia and blasted a black spike at her.
It impaled her and made her fly back.
She screamed out in pain as she flew past Dylan.
"Amelia!" he yelled.
He ran up to help his sister.
He stared at the spike that impaled her, only to realize it only magically went through her, because she wasn't bleeding.
But it hurt her as if it went through her.
But suddenly as Dylan was caring for her, he realized what Facilier meant by distract.
He looked up and saw him make the hat glow entirely, and then reduced it to just a tiny hat, big enough to wear.
"No…" he gasped, getting right up. "No! NO! NO YOU FUCKING DON'T!"
He was so close to reaching Facilier, when once again his friends on the other side held him back.
"You still can't reach me," said the Shadowman. "So yes I fucking do."
He then got close up and whispered into his ear.
"Word of advice," he said. "Maybe you should less about your friends and yourself more. Maybe it will help you learn your destiny faster."
Facilier smiled and made the hat fly into his hand.
He tipped his own hat and bowed, and then disappeared into green light.
The shadows all disappeared and Dylan was released.
He grunted in agitation as the park was then empty.
All that was left was the gang.
Amelia was on the ground impaled by magic, Charlie was gone and made into a slave, and Dr. Facilier had gotten the last artifact.
Dylan was down on his knees.
They only had two.
They had four.
They were at loss.
He stared up into the sky, and the only word that escaped his mouth was, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
No indeed. They got the last artifact. Charlie is also a slave, and now what will they do? What can they do? Stay tuned to find out!
See you next update! Review please dearies!
