Slugterran Saviours

Chapter 2

Author's note: just to be clear, everyone in the series is a bit older, Cyan's 19, Lancaster and Tiffy are 18, Ally's 17, most of the Shane Gang are in their early 20's, i've always assumed Kord, Junjie, Aquito and Pronto to be a bit older so they're mid 20's, Leo's 19, Alana and Eli are 20, I'm not following the timeline of the series, but just assume it's after Seasons 1-3, GFB and ROTE, and everything after that didn't happen because no amount of anything would make me suffer through SlugFu Showdown. OKAY NOW TO THE CHAPTER

Cyan's POV

A hush echoed volumes across the room as I stood in silence, his voice sending chills down my spine, my muscles tensing up as he took a few steps towards me. The room was consumed by darkness at his presence, growing colder, my fists clenching as he walked towards me in this woman's body. The memories of Ally's glowing red eyes, the veins bulging prominently under the skin of her arms came back to me, causing an involuntary shiver up my spine. Memories of her body twisting in ways humanly impossible flashed in my mind, her cackling with maniac laughter, screaming in agony. For us to come to her, for us to run. Run, child. You'll never best me, his voice echoed from her mouth, the memories vivid in my mind.

Slugterra is still healing from that dark time, the energy of the slugs increasing slowly, day by day, but one thing changed: no one uttered his name out loud, in fear of bringing him back, living in fear of that monster. Ataro shook his head, letting out a malicious chuckle as he taunted,

"Surprised, Sparks?" The woman's red eyes pierced into my soul, her dark, chocolate brown skin glistening with sweat, but she grinned manically, Ataro in full control of her body and mind. He took a step closer to me, and I instinctively took a step back, the grip on my blaster much tighter than before as I retorted,

"I'm surprised you got the guts to face me again, Ataro. After all, I stopped you the first time, and I won't hesitate to do it again." I reached for my blaster, but he grabbed my wrist, his touch ice cold. He let go once I let go of the handle of my blaster, grinning with satisfaction. I swung a punch at him to wipe off his sickening grin, but he grabbed my fist in mid air, pushing me backwards.

"What's the rush, darling? I don't bite." He said sweetly, the hand of the woman he possessed brushing aside a strand of hair from my face, the tips of her fingers tracing a line on my cheek almost affectionately. I swatted away her hand, growling,

"Don't you dare touch me." He grinned, his hand withdrawing from me. His glowing red eyes grew dark with desire, his mouth curling into an unnatural smirk as he sighed,

"Oh, what a pity. Since we can't have any fun..." I was about to retort when my breath caught in my throat as I saw the hand blaster on the lady's arm loaded, a Lavalynx inside.

And with a single shot, chaos erupted.

I rolled to the left, loading my blaster before I got back on my feet. Covering my eyes, I shot a Phosphoro at Ataro. He shrieked, and I opened my eyes, shooting a Sand Angler at him.

"Scarabi move, Desert!" I commanded, and she made a sandstorm. I loaded and shot my Rammstone at her after my Sand Angler hit her. Ataro fell to the ground. I ran to him, stepping on his host's chest. I loaded my Geoshard, aiming it at the woman he possessed. But I knew I wasn't going to kill her. I knew I couldn't pull the trigger if my life depended on it.

Too many deaths already haunt my conscience.

"Ataro, get out of her mind or you'll know a Geoshard's crystal inside out!" I barked, my finger on the trigger. The Goon, Ataro's, devious laugh echoed in the room, not even fazed by the Geoshard that was aimed directly at his host. He looked at me with a smirk, informing me,
