"What are we going to do?" Liza asked, looking at the water polluted with Phantom goop.
The nasty substance had now trailed to every water source in Jamaa, just as suspected.
"I don't even know anymore. Without water, nobody can survive." Snow Leopard said.
"Couldn't Foxy Hood help?" Bunny asked, looking up at the Alphas.
"I'm afraid not. She's an explorer, and she doesn't have much combat against the Phantoms." Liza said.
"Well, you're the Alphas. Can't you do something?" Monkey said.
"We could, but that would mean leaving Jamaa." Cosmo said.
"So what? You've left Jamaa hundreds of times!" Snow Leopard said.
"That's true, but we've never trekked into the Phantom Kingdom. It could be dangerous!" Peck said.
"Danger schmanger!!! You can do this!" Bunny exclaimed, hugging Peck.
Greely looked off into the distance. He was worried about something.
"Are you okay, Greely?" Bunny asked.
"Yes, I'm fine. It's just... The last time I went anywhere near Phantoms, something bad was to happen. And that counts for Jammers AND Alphas." Greely explained.
"So? If something WERE to happen, remember! You have the Alpha crystals! You're literally invincible!" Snow Leopard said.
Greely smiled faintly. It was if those words meant something special to him.
"We've got no time to lose. Everyone in Jamaa is in their dens, so we should be good for now. The goop hasn't reached the water sewers yet." Snow Leopard said.
"Right." Everyone else said all together.
...
Dark purple clouds hung over the Phantom Kingdom. Neon green goop went through the ground visibly. It was dark and cold, and it was bustling with Phantoms.
The group arrived at the gateway to the Phantom Kingdom and looked up at it. It was a light purple arch with a stone Phantom perched at the top of it.
"This place is scary." Bunny said, staying close to the Alphas as she surveyed the rotting plants.
"It's okay, the plants won't hurt you." Peck assured.
"But I'm sure the Phantoms will, so stay close." Liza added.
Bunny nodded and huddled in closer with the others.
The Phantoms didn't seem to notice their presence and went about their business. In other words, doing the exact opposite of what animals liked to do. For example:
Taking water from their plants
Drinking from polluted waters
And that's about it XD.
Back to the story.
The group halted at the Phantom Castle gates.
"I don't want to go in..." Bunny said, shivering.
"You don't have to, Bunny. We'll be back in the nick of time." Cosmo said.
The Alphas went inside of the Phantom Castle.
The question was, would they return in the same way they were?
See you next time on Bella's Pink Planet!
