THE ZIBLINGS

Chapter Eight: The City of Lightning

Bolt managed another bolt of lightning. Instead of saving it he aimed it at his siblings and smiled sinisterly as he hovered across them.

"Bolt, what are you doing?" Whipney asked horrified.

"Bolt, no we're you're family forgive us," Morph pleaded.

"Let him. We deserve it. How we treated him, we deserve a much worse fate," Blaze said to his brother and sister calmly. Bolt shot the spark of lightning; however, it didn't kill any of his siblings it cut the cords tying them. The evil smile faded from his innocent face and he clutched his stomach and laughed untamed. "I tricked you all. I tricked you all," he chanted pointing at them. The rest of the Ziblings sighed a relief.

"Now let's go to Dad. He's waiting somewhere with the other not-so hostages," Bolt said and smiled at his joke.

Blaze hit him on the back playfully, "theta boy," he said. Whipney winked at him and Morph nodded confidently, and all of them landed on ground.

"NOT SO FAST," a voice yelled behind them. The Ziblings turned and saw the Snake Lord behind. He looked in his worst shape; his right ankle had been sprained, his left arm which was electrified by the reptile device, is broken, and his right rib was most likely cracked.

"We'll take him together, boys," Whipney said calmly. Blaze and she stood next to each other. While Morph was behind Whipney in a step, Bolt was behind Blaze; the formation was incredible.

Bolt and Blaze fired blasts of fire and electricity at the Snake Villain. Meanwhile, Whipney kept trying to grab hold of any of his legs, and transformed into a big wasp trying to sting him.

Finally, the Snake Lord couldn't keep dodging the Ziblings' attacks; Whipney hauled him from his neck, giving Bolt the chance to finish him off.

Bolt collected every strand of lightning he had zapped over the years and blasted the electricity on the Not-So-Snake-Lord. When the dust cleared, nothing was left of him except smithereens of his scaly body.

Bolt escorted his siblings to their father, "Well done, Ziblings," Wallet said proudly. Reporters and journalists were taking pictures of all the Ziblings. Blaze, Whipney, and Morph gave all the credit to Bolt, all the people hearing the story kissed him. Whipney and Morph raised their younger brother on their shoulders, while Blaze made fireworks in the sky.

"Before the Snake Lord came to this city, it was named The City of Light," the Ziblings' father said over the microphone, "Now it will be named the City of Lightning." The crowd cheered loudly making the Ziblings close their ears.

Wallet faced his children, "Now then, Bolt has reached his full potential, thus I want you to treat him as a grown up and respect him as much as he respected you," he looked at Bolt, "Well done, son,"

The Ziblings and their father walked to home and to the secret laboratory discussing matters and laughing at each one's first trials of becoming a true superhero.
