"Come out, come out, where ever you are", Zeather said as he walked into the fort. I and my friends were hiding behind what looked like garage doors, in groups of two. Zeather was on all fours, looking around, and sniffing the air when, Draculaura accidentally hit the door with her hand. Zeather herd the loud noise and turned to the door, sniffing the air. "Bingo", he said. He laughed as he walked twords the door. Then, I got an idea. I banged on the door I was hiding behind. Zeather turned around confused. Then Lagoona did the same with the door she was behind. Zeather turned again. Then we all started banging on the doors at once. Zeather was very confused, he took an aggressive posture and started growing and turning twords each door. Draculaura was having fun, so much fun in fact, that she underestimated the strength of the door. It snapped off the hinges and fell to the ground. Revealing her and Frankie. We stopped banging, and Zeather looked right at Draculaura and Frankie Stein. "Well, isn't this a delightful turn off events", Zeather laughed. "So what's it going to be, Clawdeen Wolf", he said, calling me out. "You, or your adorable little friends". "You know, I could just consume their hearts and brains, right here, right now, but I'm trying to stay away from junk food". Frankie and Draculaura backed up. "I'm waiting", Zeather said as he began to count. "1, 2". "No, wait", I said as I came out worried for my friends just as he said 3. He turned around, saw me, and smiled. "You know Clawdeen, I should thank you", he said. "You've made this quite the fun chase". "But, as they say". "All good things must come to an end". He looked me in the eye before saying, "no more games, Clawdeen Wolf". He lunged at me. But Frankie had seen a metal rolling trash bin to Zeathers left, and used her magnetic abilities once more. The bin slammed into Zeather, and sent him crashing through the wall and down. The rest of the wall then crumbled in his wake.

Zeather had flown into a large tank of gasoline and then hit the ground. The ruptured tank spewed out it's contents onto Zeather. He moved out of the way and then saw a group of Animalistic Leishmania Parasites. Four ghoul sized ones and one huge one. "You gotta be kidding me", he said. I came to the edge and called out to Zeather. With Zeather ignoring me and going to fight the parasites. "Alright then, you wanna dance", Zeather said as he pulled out his knife. "Let's dance". With that he charged at the parasites.

"Clawdeen, what are you doing", Frankie asked me. I didn't get a chance to respond. As a parasite whipped it's tail in our direction, and then slithered up the wall appearing in front of us with a flash of lightning as rain began to fall.

Zeather threw one parasite aside. He then grabbed the tail of another as it tried to stab him. He flung it into a wall, cracking it's head open. Meanwhile he crushed the head of the other parasite by stomping it.

Cornered by the parasite, I looked around in fear. And my eyes landed on a gas can. I nugged it and found that it was likely full. Then I remembered the flair gun. I took it out and loaded in one of two shots. Now with an idea in mind, I stood up and grabbed the canister, which drew the parasite to me. "Come get some slimy", I said. The parasite lunged and bit into the canister. The lid came off and the parasites teeth dug into the canister, getting it stuck in the parasites mouth. It gave the parasite a month rinse of gasoline. It shook it's head around and bit the canister trying to dislodge it from the it's mouth. Eventually the canister flew off into the distance, and the parasite focused on me and lunged. That's when I fired the flair gun. The flair hit the inside of the parasites mouth and set it ablaze. The parasite screeched in pain and fell backwards down to the ground.

Zeather, who was growling at the giant parasite turned around when he heard a strange noise. He saw the parasite fall, and then realized the tank he slammed into held gasoline. He sniffed himself a few times before saying, "oh no". The parasite landed on a large puddle of gasoline and the fire in it's mouth caused it to ignite. Zeather, and all three remaining parasites, were engulfed in an explosion. With the larger parasite not dieing instantly, but slithering a few feet away before collapsing to the ground. And dying from it's wounds.

After it was said and done, I looked over the edge and saw a bunch of fire and char. "Dang", Fru-Fru said amazed. "Great call Clawdeen". "Thanks", I replied. "So, are we home free now", Frankie asked. "It seems that way", Fru-Fru replied. "But we should be on our guard, just in case". As we left, I remembered something. "Hold on, there's something I need to get", I said. "Okay then", Draculaura replied. I climbed over the edge and looked around. I didn't see Zeather anywhere, but I did see his blade. Which I decided to take. "At least a souvenir, to show some proof", I said as I left.
