Episode 25: Nightmares of the Norse part 4: The Gigantic Wolf
It seemed like a pretty daunting task ahead for the Z-Team as the enormous wolf Fenrir was approaching them, or did it seem like it had other plans like attacking the nearby local Viking town? Whatever the case, the team felt that even with their weapons, magic, technology, and teamwork this was their toughest challenge yet, even though they have faced many other giant monsters this one felt like they were virtually out of options. The enormous wolf slowly approached the Z-Team, its steps quaked the earth with each step, its breathing sounded like a saw going through a tree as its teeth were bared snarling viciously, while sniffing out the Z-Team. It stopped before them, eyed them and then peered upward eyeing the nearby Viking town, screams of terror were heard from afar, then Fenrir gave a deafening howl upward and then readied itself for the Viking town, seeing the Z-Team were of no threat.
"It's going for the town!" screamed Minnie.
"Perhaps this will slow it down!" Zack reached for the flask containing the Gashadokuro, and then opened it up. Out came the equally enormous ghost skeleton, powerful enough to block the gigantic wolf with its hands, Fenrir started thrashing about being immobilized by an unseen force. Fenrir's attempt at charging at the Viking town was temporarily thwarted, though the Gashadokuro was invincible, it wasn't the most graceful in movements being a skeleton. How to fully stop Fenrir from going on its rampage needed a new strategy, which wasn't being helped by the frequent quakes caused by Fenrir's thrashing.
Then Mickey thought of something with all the jolts and just in the nick of time for he dropped the bag containing Medusa's head. As he picked up the bag, he recalled the cryptic words Odin was prophecizing on how to defeat it, the question was how to properly execute a plan? Mickey called over Donald and Aladdin, who were more than eager to hear as there was no other way of even laying a scratch on the gigantic wolf with weapons or magic.
"Donald, you need to cast Haster on me and Aladdin so I can quickly get out there in front of Fenrir, and then Aladdin cast your Tornado Floater to get me up to eye-level, so I can petrify him!" The two nodded and then Donald first cast Haster on Mickey and Aladdin. Without wasting a minute, it was Aladdin's turn to cast Tornado Floater, and up Mickey went high, while readying the bag. Once Mickey got high enough, he opened the bag, closed his eyes and then hoisted out Medusa's head, whose eyes glowed, the enormous wolf continued to thrash about, but in a matter of seconds a crackling sound was heard, and slowly the wolf began to turn to stone. As this was happening, everyone was cheering Mickey on, Zack even returned the Gashadokuro to the flask knowing it was uncontrollable.
Just as Fenrir became fully petrified, the Tornado Floater spell dissipated, and Mickey began to fall, but Zack from afar transformed into Charmahut and flew as fast as he could and caught Mickey, now relieved to be safe from a bad fall. After landing, Charmahut morphed back into Zack, and then a loud crackling sound was heard, the enormous wolf statue began to fall apart rapidly sending large boulders all over the place, until the sun was revealed. Thor shot down from the heavens and with his hammer Mjommer swung at the sun, hitting it until it was back in place. He had one more thing to do, once that task was complete, Thor handed another clear map piece, another step closer to finding the secret city that could enable the Z-Team to become Lightbringers. The Viking town cheered in excitement that the threat was over, the Z-Team were relieved the threat was over. The Vikings from the village invited the Z-Team over for a nice feast while Thor returned to the heavens.
And what a feast it was! Lots of delicious food, music and dancing with flutes and drums, and a wood chopping contest where many of the male members, and a few females got to try their luck at wood-chopping. It was all about who could split a stump in the fewest strokes and surprisingly Goofy was able to clear it in the most swings. While the celebration was going on, a dark shadow messenger was watching everything and then disappeared to report what was going on.
"Those Z-pests have done the impossible! They've defeated Fenrir!"
"They can use those trump cards all they want, though that wasn't all for naught, I managed to squeak in a few more souls into my body and gain more darkness for my armor!" The Dark Master laughed evilly in the dark as he continued to watch and plan his next move…..
