Kitsume: (Astonished) What...!?????
The Bantu then made itself wider, until it could cover the whole arena. Then it plummeted towards Kitsume and the others.
Shen: OH NO!!!! IT'S GONNA LAND ON US!!!
Kitusme: The dirty...
But it was too late... the blob landed on top of the group. The group felt the enormous pressure of the ooze that engulfed them. Kitsume found herself enveloped by the massive blob, and felt like she was swimming through a pool full of gelatine. She also found that her sword was doing very little effort to free her from the Bantu, for the Bantu just quickly covered its wounds with more of its own substance. Kitusme then felt pricking against her skin.
Kitsume: Wha… what now!???
Delilah: (Laughing evilly) Oh dear... I'm sorry… did I mention to you that the Bantu's substance can devour raw flesh in short time? No? Oh dear… I apologize. I guess I should have told you before I allowed at least ONE of you to live!! AHA HA HA HA HA!!!!
Kitsume: Gergh… no.
Crash met his sister coco within the Bantu. Both were struggling to get free.
Coco: Crash… it's too thick!!
Crash: I'm losing breath too… and I feel pricking against my skin!!!!
Danni: This thing'll eat us all!!
Coco: Wait... (Calling for the familiar) ABIGAIL!!!!!
Kikanoo: Of course... WORMWOOD!!!
Both the fairy and the demon emerged from the Bantu.
Abigail: Oh gracious... this substance has swallowed our friends whole!!
Wormwood: Then let us free them!! Abigail… you make an opening for them to be safe. I will freeze this thing in its tracks!!!
Abigail: All right!!
Abigail then spread some magical substances over the Bantu. The Bantu then split in two releasing Kitsume and the others. Everyone gasped for air as they felt it. Then, Wormwood froze his spear, and pierced the Bantu's sides. Shortly there after, the Bantu was stuck in solid ice! It was no longer mobile!!
Coco: (Looking at Abigail) you saved us Abigail!!
Kikanoo: (looking at Wormwood) Great job man!!
Abigail and Wormwood: THANKS!!! (Both laughing.)
Delilah looked down and let out a small chuckle.
Delilah: Hmm hmm… apparently you think you've won... YOU THOUGHT WRONG!!!! LOOK!!!!!!!!!!! (Pointing at the Bantu.)
Suddenly, the ice the Bantu was encased in began to crack. The Bantu then shattered it all, freeing itself. Then, both sides of it reassembled into the huge mass it formerly was.
Kitsume: Gergh… it rejoined itself!!
Aku Aku: Black magic is stronger than I thought!!
Delilah: Eh hah ha ha ha ha ha!!!! It's futile. There is only weak point to this thing… and it will be hard for you to find it!! NOW… BANTU... SHOW NO REMORSE!!!!
The Bantu then built itself much higher, and it stood taller than before. The Bantu then began forming spike like shapes out of its mass. The Bantu then launched sharpened spikes from it's massive body. Everyone tried to dodge them, and felt the spikes whiz by them as the Bantu continued. Kitusme managed to deflect the spikes with her sword. Then, the Bantu used another tactic. It opened up underneath, and revealed a bright light. Then, it shot a huge ice beam from its stomach. Kitsume dodged it, but then saw that the ice beam hit Coco and Sarnie. They screamed as both were now entombed in ice.
Kitsume: COCO!!! SARNIE!!!!!!!!
Delilah: AHA HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Oh yes dear Kitsume... the Bantu decided to use the same dirty tactic your little pixies decided to use… now HE has frozen two of your companions. Oh… (Pretending to wipe a tear away) ...how BEAUTIFUL!!!!! HA HA HA HA!!!
Wormwood: Im… impossible!!
Abigail: Wait… hang on Coco!!
Abigail fluttered over to Coco, but the Bantu saw this, and then shot a stream of black acid from it's form. The acid grabbed Abigail, and then thrust her into the blob's mass!! Abigail was trapped in the blob, and the black form that enveloped her prevented her to use her magic!
Kitsume: ABIGAIL!!!!
Wormwood: EerrrrgGHHHHHH!!! DIE MONSTER!!!! (Wormwood raised his spear.)
But the Bantu was alert this time, and also shot out a stream of black acid. Much like Abigail, Wormwood was soon trapped into the form that was Bantu.
Aku Aku: Ergh! Both of them!! TIME TO END THIS!!!
Aku Aku then lit his eyes up and fired a multi coloured beam at Bantu. But then the Bantu did something amazing. It smoothed out it's appearance, and looked almost mirror-like. The beam Aku Aku shot was deflected off the mirror, and head straight back towards everyone else.
Crash: LOOK OUT!!!!!!!
Everyone dodged the beam that blew out a side chunk in the wall.
Delilah: HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!! YESSS!!!!!!!! Now you see how your over confidence has only limited your power. You are powerless to stop one of my grandest creations. Despite it's simple appearance… the Bantu is composed of many a tactic... and contains much intellect which is needed to destroy you. And its mass is impossible to defeat… and the weak spot impenetrable. You have no chance Kitusme!!
Kitsume looked angrily at Delilah, while everyone looked in fear at the Bantu; and the frozen bodies of Sarnie and Coco.
Kitusme: You... HOW DARE YOU!!!!!
Delilah: Oh dear me... none of this would have happened if you had just come back to us my DEAR Kitsume. Just admit your loyalty to Demonarc… and the Bantu shall free your friends. He IS under my command. And you Kitsume… have the power to decide your companions' fates!!
Kitsume: ENOUGH!!! MY answer is as clear as always!! I will NEVER join my grandfather!
Delilah: BAH… YOU DISGUST ME!! Vey well... BANTU… KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the Bantu began to react again. Kitsume was going to have to think of a way to defeat this massive form. But how? The Bantu began spreading further out oozing towards the group. Abigail and Wormwood were still trapped inside.
Kitusme: So this monster's weak point is INSIDE!! But where..?
Shen: How we gonna find it? I can't see anything resembling a weak point!
Crash: (Reading his fists) Looks like we're gonna have to fight our way in to see how.
Sarnie: Right!!!
Danni: (looking at the Bantu) All right you Scum-suckin' slime ball... let's see where yer Achille's Heel IS!!
Crash jumped at the Bantu with his fists raised. He began pounding away at the mass with his fists. Bits of the slime covering the Bantu were being broken off, but it wasn't a problem for it. Because each piece torn from it was immediately regenerated. Danni and Shen began pounding into the mound as well, punching away chunks of slime. But those regenerated as well. Just then, a large string of ooze came from the Bantu's sides. The ooze wrapped itself around Crash, Danni, and Shen. All were trapped, writhing to get free.
Danni: GAK… oh no… I'M STUCK!!!
Crash: Eck… ergh... can't… move!
Shen: AUGH!!! Erghj… darn... I can't… ergh...
Just then, a large envelope of slime from the Bantu covered the three warriors, and they were then engulfed into the inside of the giant blob. They were engulfed in a sea of ooze that held them firmly in place. Now, only Kikanoo, Aku Aku, and Kitsume were left to fight the Bantu. Crash, Danni, and Shen were in the belly of the beast, along with two of the familiars. And Coco and Sarnie were frozen solid in ice tombs. Things were looking very bleak.
Kitsume: (astonished) No… it… couldn't be.
Delilah: (Laughing harder) YOU SEE!???? You were foolish to underestimate the side of evil… for it SHALL triumph. You're still alive Kitsume… I suggest you join us now or SUFFER!!!!!!!
Kitsume was getting discouraged on how the odds were against her. She had never faced an opponent such as this. Then she realized, that her anger towards Demoanrc had only made her lose her self-sense of reliance. She was over estimating her opponents as Delilah mentioned. Kitsume knew that her anger was now a deadly asset to the fate of herself, her friends, and the world. But, she was determined to fight back.
Kikanoo: ENOUGH OF THIS!!! (Aiming his bow and arrow) I'll slay this monster even if I have to use all my arrows!!
Just then, the Bantu quickly reacted. It sent out a slim stream of darkenss underneath Kikanoo's feet. Kikanoo saw the darkness enveloped underneath him.
Kikanoo: Wha… what is this!?
It was too late - the darkness revealed a stream of ooze that suddenly engulfed him. He was trapped and bound in a case of black ooze that soon pulled him underneath the floor. He was then transported into the insides of the Bantu as well. It was only Aku AKu and Kitusme elft.
Aku Aku: What now? My beams are useless against it.
Kitusme: And the weak point is not found. We must act quickly… for if we don't… then our friends will surely perish!
Aku Aku: Think wisely... we're the only ones left. We must find the weak point, but how?
Kitsume then remember, she and Aku Aku WEREN'T the only ones there. There was one more familiar with them - the Bat Familiar. She remembered how it lighted the way for them in the woods. Maybe the bat would reveal the weak spot!!
Kitsume: I HAVE IT!!!!
Delilah: (Looking puzzled) …what?
Kitsume then called upon for the Bat Familiar. Within seconds, the familiar fluttered near Kitsume, awaiting its orders. Kitsume then spoke softly to it.
Kitsume: Friend… this mass known as the Bantu has imprisoned my friends. Grant me your light to show me its weak spot… so I may slay it!
The bat then chirped its agreement. Soon after, it flew over the Bantu, and sense it's weak spot with its eyes. Soon, it chirped again, and shone light onto the weak spot. There it was… a blue coloured sphere inside the Bantu. It was decorated with strange markings, and rotated like a globe inside the Bantu. It was well hidden for it was blue and well camouflaged in the Bantu. But thanks to the Bat, Kitsume finally found it.
Kitsume: (drawing out her sword) IT'S THERE!!!!
Delilah: GERGH… NO!!! (She then outstretched her hand, and shot a large spark of evil magic at the Bat Familiar) VERMIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The shot came towards the bat. The bat saw this, and turned around. The bat then shot a fireball from its mouth. It collided with Delilah's spark, and exploded it. Soon, both were gone.
Delilah: (Astonished) Impossible... this THING found the spot AND deflected my magic!!
And the light still shone on the weak spot. Kitusme was ready.
Kitsume: (Reading her sword pointed at the Bantu.) Now Demonic mass of evil... prepare to ooze back into the pits of Hell from where you came!!!!!!!
Kitsume rushed towards the Bantu, and jumped right on top of the heap where she could see the weak spot. She felt her feet sink into the soft mass, but she began slashing her sword to get through. The Bantu tried to grab her with the ooze. But Aku Aku was there to help, but shooting light beams at it to deflect them. Kitsume then slashed and hacked, until she found the weak spot. With one quick thrust, she plunged her holy sword into the demonic sphere. The sphere soon had electric charges flowing around it. As soon as Kitusme pulled her sword out, the sphere began to crack and crumbled into nothingness. Suddenly, its blue light was gone and faded away. The heart of the Bantu was destroyed. With no evil sphere controlling the massive heap of evil ooze, the Bantu quickly began sinking into the ground. The ooze saturated like water, and soon became nothing more than a blue puddle. And lying in the blue puddle was everyone else… alive and well. And as for Sarnie and Coco, the ice barrier was soon shattered and they were freed and very much alive. The familiars were also up as well.
Shen: (feeling his body) I'm free! And I'm alive!!
Coco: (looking at Kitsume with admiration) You did it!! I knew you could!!
Delilah was astonished and disgusted. She pulled her hair in anger.
Delilah: GERARGH!!!!!!!!!!! Defeated the Bantu!?? IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!!! DARN YOU!!!!!!!!
Kitusme then looked sternly at Delilah.
Kitsume: As you said… I underestimated the forces of evil. But as you have proven… you have underestimated the forces of good. (Putting her sword back) Now… stand aside... so I may face my grandfather.
Delilah looked angrily at kitsume. She was furious. She was raising electric sparks form her hands. But then, a flash of lightning appeared right next to her. Delilah looked to her side. So did Kitsume, and she was shocked to see who it was. It was Demona.
Delilah: Gyah... Miss Demona.
Demona: (Pointing her finger at Delilah) WRETCH!!! Your experiments were failures!! No matter what kind of black magic you were given, it only proved unsuccessful.
Delilah: Dare you accuse me!?!? (Pointing at the group below) It was THEM!! They had the advantage all along. Because of those wretched familiars with them!
Demona: It matters not! The Power of Demonarc is great! Now… LEAVE!!! And go back to your study so you can think of BETTER ways to deal with filth!!
Delilah: (Angrily but humbly obeying) Yes… Miss Demona!
Delilah then engulfed herself in a stream of light .She soon teleported to another region of the castle. Then, Demona looked down at Kitsume.
Kitsume: (looking angrily at Demona) …sister.
Demona: Kitsume… I am more disgusted in you than ever. Again, and again… you refuse to join our grandfather at his most prominent height. I came to remind you… no matter how many forces of evil you destroy… no matter how far you get through the castle… no matter how many of Demonarc's most trusted cult members you defeat… it won't be enough. Demonarc will possess the soul… and I'm here to tell you your efforts are futile. I'm offering you one last chance sister... join us, and become one with the dark legion of evil!
Coco: YOU!! (stepping forward) Shut up!!! Kitusme will NEVER join you!!! I'm not afraid anymore, and I'm here to tell you that Kitsume, nor ANY of us are gonna join with your moron of a grandfather Demonarc. Oh sure, the first sight of the Death Lord made me shiver some… but now with everything I'm going through… I'll spit in his skull the next time I see him. Face it Demona… you will never convince us EVER!!! JUST LEAVE!!!
Kitsume and everyone else looked at Coco with great pride. Coco was now fully mature, and was used to the dangers ahead. She stood firm and tall; because she knew Kitusme would never give in; and that Kitsume and the others would prevail. Demona stood there for a moment, looking down and frowning at the group. But then, she soon smiled and laughed evilly to herself.
Demona: So... I suppose it's settled then. (Starting to walk away) Oh very well then… but mark my words… Demonarc will not settle with this. (looking at Kitsume) It's official now sister, that Demonarc will use his powers to destroy you. Oh dear… pathetic low lives… what you will be experiencing will be nothing like the fires of Hell… which you will ALL experience as Demonarc takes power. And when he does… do not say we did not ask you to join us. For believe me… no matter how many times you'll deny it… you'll wish you had!
Demona then laughed wickedly, and then transported out of the laboratory with a flash of lightning. Then, the large door in front of Kitsume and the others opened.
Kitsume: (looking ahead) Let's go!
Coco: Um… Kitsume.
Kitsume: Yes child?
Coco: I hope you realize that we're all depending on you. I have complete faith in you, and know fully well Demonarc will never triumph with you around. So please… promise us all he will never succeed.
Kitsume: I promise greatly.
Coco: More than that… make sure it will never be broken.
Kitsume: (smiling warmly at Coco) Of course child.
Coco: Thank you.
Aku Aku: HURRY!!! No more time to waste!! There's more peril ahead. And not to mention Kitsume… your son may be at stake.
Kitsume: (suddenly realizing) STAR!!! Oh God… I forgot he was here!! Ergh… this adds on to more anxiety.
Kikanoo: Bet Demonarc will keep his eyes on him too.
Kitsume: Yes… I know. Well enough… we'll just have to press on.
And they did, entering the huge door, and into the more perils that would await them.
