(A few hours later)
Power got up from the ground and looked around the area frantically, "Is anyone okay?!" Prince groaned as he got up, blood dripped from his arm when he transformed into his base form. "Yup, we're fine. Power, aren't you able to beat that monster? If so, why didn't you use your full power to take it down in one shot?" Power glanced at the ground, "Because, I was too late…" "Before the beast came, I was in the forest scouring for Don and Kai.
It took me a prolonged time to get over here, and as soon as I got there, the beast banged me on the ground before I got a chance to do anything. It killed Olsen, and it departed with Don in his hands." William clenched his fists as he gritted his teeth, "Well that doesn't matter now! We gotta revive Olsen and get Don before it's too late!"
"But we also gotta get to the Rufty Mountains and we gotta get Don to defeat our final beast!" Lonnie Mae mentioned.
"How are we gonna kill the monster when we got no Don to do it?" Ella sighed, glancing at the ground while looking at all of the blood. "Look, it isn't Don's fault that he's like this. Something's controlling him, and something's telling him to do something that might mess up the prophecy…."
Everyone stared at her with surprised and confused faces. "It's Incarceration! Even though we've never met this guy, Don has met him almost for the entire adventure!" Ella explained. "Demaurion, do you remember how Don was thrashing out last night?" Demaurion nodded after Ella asked the question.
Ella clenched her fists, "Then that was Incarceration going into his head! I see what he's trying to do now, and it's not good!" As Drake dug through the rocks where Olsen was crushed, Lonnie went in and grabbed Olsen's leg to pull him out. Green vines started to come out of Lonnie's back, and they stabbed through Olsen's bloodied body. They glowed a light lime green, and they started to heal him slowly. Archie transformed into a phoenix, "So Ella, what do you think this plan with Incarceration is about?"
"Incarceration is manipulating Don. Look, he is known as one of the smartest villains in Avangard. He doesn't fight physically but mentally, he was targeting Don's feelings, forcing him to relive the worst moments he had with some of us!" she explained.
"That way, then he can switch sides, and turn to Incarceration to disrupt the prophecy. He's trying to get Don to become the bad guy, which he's already making so much progress on." Power clenched his fists and he put them together, then his eyes flared and crackled a bright dark blue.
"Listen up everybody," he said. Everybody turned to face him, with determined looks on their faces. Power got up on top of the rock pile Olsen got crushed by, and then he stood up while looking down at the others. "Look, I know we just met every single one of you guys here, but now's the time to become heroes. You guys are all young and were taught well back at Insane Middle School. I taught some of you better and trained you so that you can become excellent heroes! This time, Don needs our help. He needs our guidance, he needs our power, he needs us! He knows that we're not threats to him! So he can trust us no matter the cost!
He might turn sinister, but together we can stop that! I hereby declare that WE SAVE OUR FUTURE NO.1 HERO KX! WHO'S WITH ME?!" Everybody cheered with determination and excitement, then they got ready. Sophia got out hero suits for everyone to wear, they trained and trained with Power, and then they got ready. Olsen was on Kayson's back, and everyone got into their positions with Power in the middle. The elemental energy surged through all of them and crackled in different colors. Power smirked, "Don, here we come…."
Dark Don was on top of a small mountain range that was being hidden and covered by lots of trees and bushes.
The night sky appeared as the silver moon gleamed down on the earth and the stars radiated and shimmered.
The sky was pitch black, and the only things that could be heard were the sounds of crickets and moving trees from the wind.
The wind blew softly, and rain started to pour from the clouds. They hit the leaves with a plodder platter noise, and Dark Don sneaked out of the small mountain range, with his white silvery scales glistening through the moon like. He rolled down slowly, then he slid onto the wet grassy ground when the rain collided with it. It was squelchy and muddy, his cybernetic shoes got dirty. He looked around, and he was surrounded by large bushes and ferns with lots of trees in the dark. "Hmph, not here…"
He turned back to his direction and then thunder boomed while lightning flashed the entire sky. He saw Don wearing a dirty, torn, rugged, and jagged hero suit while he was tangled in vines with sharp and pointy thorns. His mountain shoes were almost busted, while his dragon hood looked very messy and a bit crooked. His gloves were sharp like a dragon's claws, while the rings around his wrists were scratched and bruised. The necker-chief was ripped and it increased in length as it had been pulled and torn by the thorns. It swayed right behind him like a villain's scarf, and Don's face was facing down at the ground. It was all quiet, and Dark Don just stood there, stunned.
Don was completely silent, not saying a word, as if he were dead. Thorns were wrapped around his arms and legs, and when he was wearing his hoodie over his head, one of the thorns was wrapped around his Snoutzer on the mask. Dark Don slowly approached Don with caution. As he got close, his tail tapped Don's face and then slapped it. Dark Don backed away a little, then he noticed something in Don's hand. A black gem that had a dark aura surrounding it. It was hexagonal, and Don was holding it. Which meant he was awake. Dark Don thought to himself, The Incarceration Gem, does that mean no? Is he dead? I mean, I could kill him at this moment, but what if he's already dead? Dark Don looked to the side, and his eyes widened when he noticed the Grolian Beast sitting right next to Don, with green blood slipping out of it slowly. It looked completely paralyzed, then he also noticed that the neck was completely snapped. Blood flowed as he looked at the snapped bark-forged neck, and then he looked at Don in horror. "Don, are you okay-" "KX FORM!" Don cried as a burst of Celestial energy sent Dark Don flying back. "WHAT THE-" he shouted in surprise. Don walked out of the vines, ripping through them with full strength.
He growled, "WHO DARES TO WAKE ME FROM MY REST?!" He coldly starts walking towards Dark Don in anger and frustration. He clenched his fists, and celestial energy flared from his eyes. Dark Don gritted his teeth, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU MAN?! WHERE'S THAT OLD DON?!" Don starts to walk towards Dark Don even faster, as dark celestial energy crackles around him. He dropped the black gem and he continued walking. Don glared at Dark Don menacingly, "I see you've come back to challenge me once again Dark Don, don't waste my time…" Don's dragon wings violently twitched, as his tail had bloody scars all over.
Dark Don got up ferociously, lunar energy crackled and charged around him. He wiped the blood from his mouth, "Come at me…." Don charged at Dark Don, and they both clashed. They created a shockwave across the entire forest that was combined with lunar and celestial energy. They were pushing against each other as both of their energies crackled around them. They both clenched each other's fists, and they launched themselves into the air.
Don flew right at him first to throw in a punch face first, and then Dark Don blocked it with his arm. The two started to throw a barrage of punches at each other until Don axe kicked Dark Don back down to the ground. Dark Don gets sent rolling back like a very quick spin ball, and he crashes through the trees creating a lunar explosion. Don charges up with celestial energy, and he boosts back down towards Dark Don. He lands on Dark Don's chest creating a whole celestial explosion and shockwave across the forest, He grabs Dark Don and throws him at five different trees. Dark Don slams and crashes through them one by one, while Don runs towards him.
Don leaps into the air while Dark Don is sent flying mid-air, then he turns into a dark celestial vortex to punch Dark Don's gut shouting, "SCOURGE DON'S FATE!" The impact created a huge shockwave in his gut that ran across the forest. Some of the trees collapsed and fell, while others were destroyed. As Dark Don lay there on the ground, completely bloodied already, Don is running at him at full speed with celestial energy charged up. He jumps and transforms into a celestial vortex mid-air, spinning at maximum velocity. Dark Don gets up while lunar energy crackles, and he creates a lunar shield made out of white crackling lunar energy. "SINGULAR DROPKICK!" Don shouts as he dropkicks at Dark Don's shield with one leg creating a celestial shockwave. The shield shattered, and the impact sent Dark Don rolling back and tumbling back at quick speeds. He stopped in his tracks, and he charged back at Don with lunar energy completely charged up. He threw in a left hook, right hook, backhand, flash kick, and sidekick, and Don nearly dodged them all. He created celestial chains, and then he threw all of them at two trees right in front of him as he backed away from Dark Don.
He was putting himself in some sort of slingshot position, and then he started to stop his feet on the ground while charging up celestial energy. "150% INCREASE! OVER RIDING KICK!" Don launched himself off of the celestial chain slingshot, and he charged up his entire leg with dark celestial energy. He glared right at Dark Don, who was backing away, and then charged up with lunar energy. Then flew past him while somehow throwing in some sort of Celestial kick to the face.
The air shattered like glass, and then when the shattered glass broke into pieces and fell, the shockwave emerged rapidly creating destruction across the forest. Dark Don stood there, completely paralyzed, and then he went on his knees as blood dripped from his face.
Then he fell on the ground face forward, Don turned to him as his eyes flared with dark celestial energy once again. His hands filled with blood and rage, and he felt a sense of victory and pride. Don slowly walked past Dark Don, and he spoke with his voice filled with quiet malice, "Rufty Mountains, then next is destroying Celestia…" Then, a shadow started to swirl around Scourge Don like a mist. The black shadow landed perfectly right next to Don, transforming into Incarceration. Incarceration put his finger on his chin, and he smirked, "You know, you're not bad as a villain…. Say, why don't you go kill your friends right now?"
Scourge Don stood there, silent. He responded with a dark shivering cold voice, "How about we take down Celestia? Or maybe raid it… Then our killing spree will go on…" "Trust me, I'll make sure I kill every single one of those who saw me as the weak.
They'll perish under my wrath of darkness, and then after that, the entirety of Avangard will be ours and the Lunaranites… I only attacked Dark Don because he bothers me. I hate him." Incarceration laughed hysterically, "Hah! You've got a knack for murdering people huh? Tell you what, murder every Celestianite once you get to Celestia… But first, we gotta get to the Rufty Mountains and take down that other beast. I just want to end this prophecy the best way there is, since you have a passion for killing…." "Also, your moveset seems to be a lot more sinister than your last one. I mean come on, 'Scourge Don's Fate', 'Singular Dropkick, and 'Overriding Kick', you're creative with naming your moves. Scourge Don hissed darkly but respectfully, "I appreciate your honesty, Incarceration… You'll be great at showing me the path vile…." "But who knows, I might take matters into my own hands…."
Incarceration's head jerked up while raising an eyebrow, "What do you mean by that?" "DON!" a voice from afar called. The two villains turned their heads from behind, and they noticed the crew with their weapons and hero suits. Don backed away, and he clenched his fists letting out a frustrated groan. "What do YOU insulting predators want?" he asked, his voice sounding shady. Javier kindly reassured with a smile, "Look Don, we don't wanna hurt you. How about you stop doing this whole villain arc thing and come back to us?" Everybody slowly turned to stare at him like he had 10 eyes. He laughed nervously, "Please?" Incarceration blankly said, "Come out." All 6 of the Illegals burst out of the bushes in their beast forms. Ironz, Azure, King, Rusty, Darn, and Vironos. Vironos led the group, and he was in his Drake Dragon form. He growled as he slowly approached the crew, and Scourge Don turned around to get away. Incarceration darted through the forest to get out of sight as well. "I'll get him!" Power yelled as he chased down Incarceration through the thunder. He charged up his fingers, and he flicked them from beneath him which launched him into the air. He whispered, "Goodbye…."
