We currently see the team outside the hole they discovered, with Ezra and Ken trying to pull Luke out of it. He thought he'd be able to squeeze down the hole, but the celestial wizard was too big for fit.

"This is embarrassing" Nashi groaned due to her brother's idiocy, "Hey at least your brother doesn't strip often" Sylvia remarked as they both deadpanned at Storm who just realized he was naked. "Luke what gave you the idea to try and shove yourself down the hole?" Ezra asked finally pulling him out, "I thought I could squeeze down, after all Nashi can fit in tight dresses and she doesn't exactly have a tiny waist" he replied. Only to get an anger growl from his sister and have his head pounded, "DAMMIT YOU PEST!!!" She yelled.

"I have a better idea" Kelly said before turning into Gray Matter, then jumped inside "I'll scout ahead and wait at a bigger entrance after you're able to fit through" she explained. "You two going to?" Storm asked Ezra and Ken, "though I have the advantage I want all of us to be able to get inside" Ezra said pondering. "I hear Hargeon gets scary after dark, oh I wish I had a big strong man to keep me safe" Nashi added bating her eyes innocently at Kenny. Who blushed in response, "I'm also staying with the group" he added, "sucker" Kelly said popping her head out of the hole.

"Eh too bad Chord's been trained not to tear up the street. Then we can just dig to get through" Storm added, apparently Erza and Ben had trained Chord to suppress the urge to dig whenever they go into town or to big cities. However that statement gave the brown tipped red head an idea "Storm your a genius" she said before deadpanning "also your clothes" making him flinch seeing his half naked body again.

Ezra then held her arm out and in an instant a golden green flash appeared and on her arm was a large gauntlet in the shape of Armadrillo's fore arm with a drill where the fist is. "This should do" Ezra said before approaching the hole, then used he drill to dig into the ground, "Okay your sister is officially the coolest" Nashi commented. "Since when wasn't she?" Sylvia asked as hey all followed their leader into the depths. "Guys you forgot me!" A voice said, looking up everyone saw a fairly large two headed dragon with the left half of its body blue and the other half being red.

This was Yin (blue) and Yang (red), Tahu and Cana's adopted two headed fire and water Dragon. And riding on top of them was Cynthia, "oh dear, sorry cousin!!" Ezra apologized stopping her digging, "he no biggie, besides Yin and Yang have been itching for some exercise" Cynthia replied petting The two. They growled in satisfaction, hen noticed Chord and bowed to him as he is their Alpha dragon. "Think he can stay around? just in case things get dicey" Ezra asked.

"Sure, mom and dad wanted me to take him on the mission anyway" the blacksmith/card mage  answered, the group then entered the tunnel Ezra was digging and following the small tunnel she reached the end. Which actually lead to the catacombs under the city, "Huh go figure" Storm said as they looked around, Ken then became Wild Mutt again and sniffed the ground. And after roared, Kelly translated "he said that he smells the heirloom this way" she explained as they followed him, Nashi then jumped over Luke and landed on Storm's Head.

Then pushed off and landed on Ken's back, "you wouldn't mind if I sat here right?" She asked making the Vulpimancer blush beneath his fur. He shook his head signifying he didn't mind and continued on, as Ken tracked the Heirloom he barked pointing to a mark on the ground. It appeared to be something similar to an upside down cross, however the shortest end had bulges on both sides of it like the hilt of a long sword. And the longest end was pretty thick and had small indentations on the sides, in addition there was now point like the shape of a normal sword. The end of the long end looked more like it ended in a claw like tip.

"That's from the artifact" Kelly said bringing up a picture of said relic, it had the exact shape of the mark they found. "Well it was here, but where did it go?" Sylvia asked, Chord then sniffed the ground and roared. "Perhaps this May shed some light on things" he said, Yang then let out a low flame, enough to light the area as they saw a foot print.

"Well this looks odd" Nashi said as she and Ezra approached it, "larger than any human foot, has two big toes and judging by the length of the stride, it has to be really tall" the requip mage analyzed. Ken then turned back, "didn't smell anything organic in the prints. But I did pick up traces of metal" he informed.

"So the footprint's shape could be from some sort of armor?" Nashi asked, "either armor or maybe it's a golem made by an iron make mage" Sylvia replied. "If that's true then I'm glad I came along" Gale said reminding them that she can eat Metal. Ezra then raised a hand to her ear, she heard something up ahead "what's up Sis?" Kelly asked "I don't think we're the only ones down here" she replied.

The group then walked deeper with Nashi providing a flame to light the ruins, "Hey Ezra any idea who else you think is down here?" She asked. "Not entirely sure, it could be another guild looking for the artifact. Or possibly a band of bandits who that stole it in the first place" Ezra replied.

"Possibly one of dad's old enemies, I hear they've been around more often" Kelly said, "either enemy or ally since dad still hasn't found all his old pals from home universe yet" Ken added. "The kid's right, unfortunately it ain't an ally" a gruff threatening voice said out of no where. Looking back everyone saw a tall entity in metal armor raising its fist "oh I am so gonna enjoy this!" The gang dodged as he brought his fist down to smash the floor where they were standing.

"Woah what the heck is that?!" Like asked before dodging another attack and charged up his fists with celestial power. "ENTER THE GATE OF THE GOLDEN BULL" he chanted before growing horns on his head and extra muscles. "TAURUS HAY MAKER!!!" Luke tackled the armored enemy down while Nashi jumped him from behind. "Let's see how much heat you can take" She taunted before her arms turned into flaming dragon claws "FIRE DRAGON CLAW!!!" She slashes his, tearin his armor but wasn't burned.

"Nice try by my kind like heat!" He retorted before smacking them away, then when he reared his hand back he saw it was missing. "What the?!" Hearing chewing looking to his side Gale was seen chewing his metal hand and she swallowed it. "Hey you just ate my arm!!" The entity yelled, "yeah and it wasn't half bad either" she said before turning her arm into a metal club "IRON DRAGON HARD FIST!!!"

The dragon slayer then knocked him back into Storm and Sylvia "ICE-MAKE GYSER/WATER FIST!!!" Both chanted before blasting him with water and ice. After wards Nashi and Luke came back and pounded him in the face. Making him back pedal to Cynthia who put on her card launcher shield and shot a barrage of explosive cards at him. Which resulted in him landing face first on the ground in front of the Tennyson triplets, and the twins aimed at him with Kelly being Ultimate Echo Echo with her sonic disks around him and Ken as Diamond Head with a Crystal arm aimed at the guy's head.

Ezra then scowled at the large thing "Okay, tell us who you are" she said, "I'm surprised you don't know me, after all I'm pretty sure your dad told yah a few stories about his past" the enemy said. Surprising them "my dad?" Ezra asked "yeah Ben Tennyson, he always thwarted my plans in the past" the enemy said before his right hand popped out a drill and he flung at everyone to keep them away. "Wait a minute, Metal transforming armor, heat resistant, drill for an arm... not it can't be" Ezra uttered.

"Oh so you have heard of me" he said before removing the helmet he had on to reveal "Vulcanus?!" Ken and Kelly said wide eyed. "Ha ha, yup, snuck here before my universe went bye bye. And been laying low, I may not be able to get back at him for ruining everyone of my plans. Not to mention confiscating every single piece of Taydenite in my bank account! But I am able to break Tennyson by destroying the thing he loves most" he said before blasting at the triplets with a laser.

Only for Ezra to requip into a Chromastone based outfit and absorb the beam, "you shall on now way harm my family!" She yelled as Chord stood by her growling. As did Cynthia who took out a large high tech broad sword with Yin and Yang standing behind her growling threateningly at the Detrovite. With Storm rushing to her side with ice rapiers in his hands with Sylvia standing next to them with half her body water.

Luke and Nashi then stood behind Vulcanus with the blonde having Sagittarius's bow handy and Nashi with red dragon wings on her back and arms still claws. Kelly then produced more sonic disks that hovered around her while Ken turned into Rath and roared angrily at Vulcanus. "Hey don't forget to save some of that armor for me, it tasted great" Gale said as her skin became iron scales.

Vulacanus glared angrily at the teenagers "let's face it, like one you can't take on all twelve of us" Luke said just as the Tennyson's floored themselves. "Way to go Luke!" Ken and Kelly yelled, "oh who said it was just little old me!" The alien asked before hundreds of his Pick Ax Aliens appeared out of he walls.

"Oh crud" Luke said awkwardly "one rule for anyone involved with the Tennyson's... never... ever... Ever! Taunt the universe because it always answers" Ezra said. This has made Vulcanus Laugh "Yeah, the cause and effect thing is pretty handy" the Detrovite said before picking up his gun he had holstered. "Now correct me if I got my math wrong. But how are twelve of you gonna stop a million of us?" He asked.

For some reason Luke took that seriously and tried to count only to have Cynthia hit him in the head. This had only made Ezra giggle in response, "well you know what they say Vulcanus" she said before summoning a two swords. These two weapons looked odd though, they looked like double bladed swords with two blades at both ends of the hilt. They were blood red and also had piercing yellow eyes with a black stripe down the middle. "Quality" She then slashes at both sides of the catacombs and knocks back several of the aliens. "Often beats Quantity in the long run" she said as a strand of her hair obscured her brown eye leaving her emerald green one to be displayed. An emerald green eye Vulcanus was all too familiar with and was very much fearful of.

"Has Ez been lifting weights again?" Gale asked, "who needs weights when you have a dragon? Or in some cases at night, siblings" Ken simply said. Mainly because instead of lifting weights like a normal girl who wants to stay in shape she bench presses Chord every morning and makes him turn into heavy materials like stone and iron. And on a few occasions she uses Ken and Kelly as dumbbells in her sleep.

(Cue Chibi Ezra and Chibi Chord as they demonstrate her lifting the dragon as if it was a barbell and then at night when she's sleeping. And she sleep walks to her sibling's rooms to lift them as if they were weights).

" hey yeah just because there are a ton of these guys doesn't mean we can't take them on come at me bro's!! COME AT ME!!!!" Cynthia said as her broad sword turned into a bazooka. "Sign me up" Nashi added before growing a Dragon's tail behind her with dragon wings and claws, "this is gonna be fun" Luke added readying his bow. Gale cracked her knuckles and turned her arms into blades while Storm and Sylvia readied their ice and water. Ken and Kelly stood back to back ready to attack with fury and sound while Ezra made her Swords disappear and requip peas into an outfit acute to Kicken Hawk. Blades on the Elbows with an outback like vest, khaki shorts, taloned shoes, and a feather looking mohawk.

The Alien has scowled again "I will not be heated by a Tennyson... NOT AGAIN!!" He said pointing to the team signaling his minions to fight them. Time then stops as we focus on the teens who now have determined faces ready to fight.
