Episode 12: War and Peace

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I really gotta have some mystic power of my own sometime." Pigsy commented as he reached into his pocket and pulled out something Mei gave him for emergencies. He then threw it out to the Crystal Warriors shooting at them.

It was a thermal detonator. So, it exploded and blew up The Crystal Warriors coming after him.

Skylor had a sword in her hand, slashing against a Crystal Warrior and then another. She had to back up quite a lot though, since their Vengestone prevented her from using her powers. But, she wasn't just The Master of Amber.

"Let's dance." Skylor grinned as she threw a smoke bomb into The Crystal Warriors and then rather quickly disappeared.

The Crystal Warriors growled and began looking around once the smoke cleared. They started blasting at random...only to be slashed into pieces by not only Skylor, but Samurai X too.

Pixal then ran off into a small group of warriors, avoiding their blasts and touch. She slashed into their sides and legs, practically lifting herself into the air with how much she was dodging. She then spun around with her swords out, slicing two Crystal Warriors who attacked her from both directions.

She then hummed. "I haven't had the need to fight someone with only my skills in a long time. It is rather refreshing to not be stuck in a mech all the time." She commented before charging again.

Nya, on the other hand, was having a tiny bit of trouble. She had to constantly dodge or block an attack with her spear. But on occasion, she would shoot out her hand and expect a tidal wave to appear. Only to remember she wasn't the Master of Water anymore.

"I've gone so long with my powers, that I feel like I don't even know how to fight without them!" Nya screamed to herself before impaling a Crystal Warrior with her spear and then running off as a bunch more blasted at her.

She then whipped around, throwing her spear into the face of a Crystal Warrior and knocking it down. She went over and ripped it out, slashing another down and then another. She then backflipped into the air to run off again, just so she could lead another horde of warriors to their doom.

Red Son's fire shouldn't have been working against The Crystal Warriors, but since his was a demonic hellfire, the Vengestone only weakened it. Red Son could work with this though, and he didn't need his powers to be great. From a young age, he was a powerful warrior.

He cackled as he blasted three Crystal Warriors down and then teleported just as another shot at him. He appeared behind it and blasted at it, and then at two more. He looked like he was having the time of his life while fighting these.

Red Son then hopped high into the air and slammed down, unleashing a massive vortex of fire that sent The Crystal Warriors flying.

Lily was constantly teleporting through the shadows, smashing The Crystal Warriors with her staff or quite literally throwing her clones at them. The Crystal Warriors were confused by all the clones, due to not having much of an intelligence other than kill or infect.

The student of The Six Eared Macaque took a deep breath before slamming her staff down and creating a horde of clones in the sky, which shot down at The Crystal Warriors, smashing them into pieces.

Lily gasped. "H-hey! I just did that!! WOOHOO-"

Then, Skylor came in and shoved her out of the way of another blast from a Crystal Warrior. Which Nya quickly took care of.

"Keep your head in the game, honey." Skylor said with a reassuring smile, helping Lily up to her feet.

Lily giggled nervously. "R-right, sorry."

Everyone then grouped up again, seeing more and more warriors marching towards them. The Crystal King had a large supply of them, that was for sure.

Meanwhile, Jilie was just dodging the attacks of her brothers with a sly grin on her face. Macaque and Wukong were just braindead, mindlessly lunging at her.

"Either it's because you're zombies now, or you've been relying too much on your powers!" Jilie giggled as she effortlessly dodged Wukong trying to grab her. "I mean, for the almighty Monkey King, you're kind of pathetic!"

Wukong roared and lunged at Jilie again, only for her to slash him back down. Macaque lunged at her next, with Jilie dodging him as well.

"I'll make it easy for ya." Jilie said as she stabbed her spear into the ground and put her hands in her pockets.

Wukong and Macaque looked at each other with mindless groans before lunging at Jilie at the same time. Jilie grinned and backflipped high into the sky. She then let herself fall as she put her hands behind her head, as if she was just relaxing at the beach.

Jilie then reached over and grabbed ahold of a tree branch, latching onto it with her tail and then hopping onto it.

Wukong and Macaque started to climb it, growling and groaning.

Jilie took out a hair and then transformed it into a double sided sword. She then zoomed down, suddenly swinging it against the tree and chopping it down and causing the two crystallized monkeys to fall.

But no matter how much they were humiliated by their sister, they just kept getting up.

Jilie's eyes narrowed as she continued to grin. "But then again...powers definitely come in handy." She threw aside her weapon and then fired a devastating energy blast from her eyes, hitting Wukong and Macaque.



Meanwhile, Mei was firing all kinds of blasts as the Dragonites flew around. She was grinning wide as The Crystal Council blasted back at her. She could destroy them if she truly wanted to, but that wasn't her goal. Her goal was to keep them busy for as long as possible.

However...The Crystal Council knew they wouldn't be able to beat Mei easily. Like Mei herself, they were stalling.

Aspheera grinned and then swung her sword, unleashing a devastating blast of pink fire. Mei just blasted back at it with her own fire before flying high into the sky and then shooting multiple beams of fire at them at once.

The Mechanic just barely dodged before looking at Pythor. "You think she's ready for the boss?!"

Pythor laughed. "No. I ssseriousssly doubt it...just keep her busy until he arrives."

Mei then flew down towards them, not hearing them. "Whatcha talkin' about?"

Pythor spun around his nunchucks and then shot lightning out at her. Mei's eyes actually widened and she blasted back at it, watching The Mechanic fly off.

She then noticed the entire Council flying towards the monastery and she quickly flew after them...only to suddenly be punched out of the sky by a mysterious figure. Mei screamed as she crashed down a hill and into a field.

Mei groaned before getting back up...only for her eyes to widen when she saw the sky. It was cloudy with pink lightning shooting out from the sky.

Then...The Crystal King floated down, his eyes glowing gold and purple. "Hello, Mei...I have been aching to meet you..."

Mei growled and then ignited her hands. "Well, I won't disappoint!"

The Crystal King watched his Council invade Zhihui's monastery before grinning at Mei. "I sincerely hope not...this is the end..."
