Angry Mob: COME OUT WRITER!!

Ghost Writer: Why don't you go out and ask them?

Me: Was that sarcasm?

Clockwork's POV

Everything seemed to happen in slow motion. Vizier firing the blast, Danny diving in front of me, the ball of energy striking him, Jazz screaming as Danny was launched into the wall and crumpled to the ground motionless, his chest smoking from the blast. My face frozen in horror as I watched, powerless.

The blast had burned through his shirt and a large, red and blistering burn could be seen on his chest. The rest of his clothes were in ashy pieces and burns littered his face and arms.

Jazz, Sam, Tucker, Danni and Fright Knight raced over to Danny. I looked back at Vizier, his hand was still smoking and he had a look of horror on his face as well. My eyes glowed red with anger, "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" I screamed as my strength returned with a vengeance.

My form glowed with a blue light and used my telekinesis to grab my staff from Nocturne's unconscious body. Once it was in my hands I swung it at Vizier, striking him in the face forcing him to drop the shield he held around us.

Vizier had been knocked to the ground and I saw Ember and Skulker prepare to strike him. "NO!" I cried using my telekinesis to push them away from him, "HE IS MINE!"

Vizier began to rise and I charged at him, my staff morphing into a scythe. I swung my staff at him but Vizier flew upwards and managed to dodge, firing red beams of energy as he did. I moved my hand in a circular motion creating a blue shield that protected me from the blasts.

Holding my shield in front of me I flew at top speed towards Vizier while he continued to fire at me. I took another swing at him with my scythe but he flew away. "Stop being a coward and fight me Vizier!" I yelled as I chased after him.

"I am no coward!" Vizier yelled back as he continued to fly away from me firing blasts as he did.

"THEN FACE ME!" I screamed.

Vizier continued to fly from me and I raced after him firing blue energy blasts from my staff-turned-scythe. I managed to hit him with a blast and he fell to the ground. Ghosts from the battle outside the castle began trickling in. They spotted Vizier on the ground and prepared their weapons.

"STAY AWAY FROM HIM," I cried as I used my telekinesis once more to push away the ghosts close to him. One of them being Frostbite, "Time Master! What are you doing!" he shouted.

"This fight is now solely between Vizier and I! Attend to the others!" I managed to say as Vizier rose back into the air. I lost interest in the other ghosts and returned all my focus to Vizier. I charged at him and our battle resumed.

I threw my scythe at Vizier and it clipped his shoulder. He cried out in pain as blood started to trickle from his arm and the wound began to sizzle. "Seems you have a new toy brother, Ecto-Ranium is it not," he said with clenched teeth.
