Chapter 38: A Freezing Fiery Earthly Storm
As soon as we were back in the real world, we had to hurry.
Karla: "Okay boys... This could get really dangerous. Both of you go into 9-Volt's room and have the window shut at all times; I don't want to have you being dragged out by an earth twister or something".
18-Volt frantically nodded as he quickly put me down and then went off with 9-Volt as per my command. Right on queue, the boys had scuttled into the bedroom and were watching through the window as the night become extra dark and Grey 5-Volt was finally present.
Karla: "Right... Grey 5-Volt... Time to finish you...",
I declared,
Karla: "Enough of your ghastly nature on this city...".
Just as Grey 5-Volt was charging at me in her flying motion, I stopped her in her tracks by suspending in an electric cage, which spun her around constantly, keeping her trapped while I worked out my next move. I then thought I should exhaust Grey 5-Volt so she couldn't move as fast. So the next element I used was fire. While she was still spinning, I breathed a stream of flames on her. I forgot, ghosts like fire, and so this only make her more active, so much so that she escaped the electricity cage!
Karla: "Uh oh...",
I thought to myself. I looked to the bedroom window to see 18-Volt gasping and pointing as 9-Volt just held his face plain frozen in terror. I could hear 9-Volt scream
9-Volt: "Watch out!"
as Grey 5-Volt now tried to take a swipe at me. She kept trying to grab me by the hair but I kept ducking and now circling her in all crazy directions. But then she stopped? She floated higher and now lights were beaming out of her eyes. It was a lie. She wanted her yellow light to look appealing, for me to step under it, and then when she had me in her sights, she would transform into a demon and devour me.
I didn't fall for it though. I knew what she was like from Sneaky Gamer. I then thought, if fire strengthens her, then the opposite shall weaken her... Ice. While she was still motionless, in her watchful gaze, I shot another electricity net at her, trapping her in the cage again. She struggled to set herself free but I shot another net to increase the duration and power of this elemental attack. I then changed to ice and sent numerous shards flying at her. Thankfully this had reduced her movement and now she had gone back to just spinning in the cage without struggling. A few more shards and she was actually now limp, nearly lifeless.
I had waited for the electric cage to finish and then when it did, she dropped heavily to the ground. She tried to move but her weakness was getting the better of her.
Karla: "Good..."
I thought to myself,
Karla: "After all the trouble you cause 9-Volt and all other gamers pertinent to this universe".
I then turned my breath into a blast of the traditional icy cold stream. After enough had been released, an ice sculpture had formed around Grey 5-Volt, rendering her frozen and seemingly lifeless.
Now that Grey 5-Volt was completely out of action, it was time to send her off on her farewell trip around the world. The best was saved for last. I had switched over to the earth element and this one was not going to be an ordinary attack. A fury, multiple elemental attacks combined into one, causing a great disaster to any foe who encountered it. Certainly, the twisters came as leaves lifted and were blew around. Then came the effect of anti-gravity, lifting Grey 5-Volt off the ground. And then lastly, multiple aftershocks of an elemental earthquake. This sent Grey 5-Volt sky high, never to be seen again.
Once all the aftershocks had gone, I signalled that it was safe for the boys to come outside. The boys had reunited with me.
9-Volt: "Wowee!",
18-Volt: "Now that was cool"
Karla: "In all honesty, I actually feel tired now",
I said to them. They both nodded.
9-Volt: "So, what's up with my mom?"
Karla: "Oh!",
I exclaimed,
Karla: "let's not forget about the real deal".
I manoeuvred myself into a suitable position and then I yelled into the middle of nowhere,
Karla: "18-Volt!".
Only a second later, 5-Volt came plummeting down from the night sky and the real 18-Volt quickly scuttled to catch her.
9-Volt rushed to the scene and he exclaimed,
9-Volt: "Mom! You're not mad at me are you?".
As 18-Volt put her down, she replied,
5-Volt: "Mad? I'd never be mad at my only son. Come here 9-Volt",
5-Volt offering her arms for an embrace to her son.
5-Volt: "It's been a really weird night, I think I'm gonna go to bed... And so should you".
It was only tonight that 9-Volt wasn't complaining about bed anymore as the action had supposedly tired him out as well. He actually said to 5-Volt,
9-Volt: "Yeah, I actually think I need some sleep tonight. I guess the gaming can wait until tomorrow".
5-Volt smiled at her son.
18-Volt looked at me and asked a similar question,
18-Volt: "Wanna go home?",
I nodded in favour. 9-Volt and 18-Volt both stepped out from their respective positions and said goodbye to each other; then 5-Volt and I did the same. Once everyone had finished with the formalities, 18-Volt picked me up and carried me back towards his house.
18-Volt: "Some night huh"
Karla: "Why do I smell smoke?"
18-Volt: "Well, you did use flames on the ghost, didn't ya?".
I nodded. I had been back to normal for a few minutes and so I now realised my previous elemental damage through my five senses.
Karla: "I hope this doesn't end up on the news...".
