Frost And Mia: Co-Op

"So, can you see the phantoms?" Frost asked Mia the koala. She preferred to see Mia as an Arctic Wolf, but this was decent enough.

"Um....no." Mia replied.

Just as her lips stopped moving, a black cloud appeared on the horizon.

"Never mind." Mia said, shuddering.

They were in the Lost Temple Of Zios, and they had contacted each other on their computers at their dens to come to the temple. Frost was on the lookout for phantoms, and Mia had decided to do the same once they saw each other's comments.

The phantoms were advancing unusually slowly, so they discussed some Jamaasian matters first.

"I think that the war will start, Frost, because there are hints around Jamaa." Mia said. Frost nodded, as she thought the same.

"Well, we would better observe the phantom's progress." Frost said. To their surprise, the phantoms were almost upon them.

"Take this, phantoms!" Mia shouted. She threw a rock.

Tok.

The stone bounced off a phantom, and it went "Crap!"

For some reason, the stone looked like a membership badge some Jammers had on their fur. Both Mia and Frost had one. The badge, of course, let them do certain actions others couldn't do.

All of a sudden, every phantom looked like it had been dumped in steaming water. 

"Oops..." Mia said, and then her face looked a bit like XD!

Frost made the same face, since the phantoms actually looked a bit cute.

Zaps roasted the dying grass in front of them, and they ran away from the phantoms, at least out of range. Frost knew a phantom's nature, they would eventually come down for close combat.

"Dodge!" Mia cried, Spirit Armor flickering but still filled with pride.

Frost dodged, and a thunderbolt barely missed the horns on her helmet.

"You know the old Poop Clan joke?" Frost huffed to Mia as they ran away from the phantoms.

"Yeah... the story where the poop animals crushed everyone in Jamaa Township, that old story our parents would tell us so that we wouldn't wander out? Yeah, I had nightmares about that." Mia said. Frost stifled a laugh.

"Well, we will be the Jammers and the phantoms Poop Clan if we don't fight back soon!" Frost replied, and Mia turned around at those words. She threw a sharp rock that could pierce a rhino's skin, and killed a few phantoms.
The rock lodged itself halfway in the ground when it dropped, and icky water came out.
"Great," Frost muttered, "we hit the sewer pipe that goes from the public bathroom to the sewage plants." Mia's eyes never looked so happy, though.

"We can use that to our advantage!" Mia cried. Frost had to plug her nose with moss by then, that sewage was stin-ky!

Mia held up a golden key. It gleamed despite the darkness in the temple.

"Throw this as far as you can into the center of the phantom mob!" Mia said, and gave Frost the key.

She homed in on the center of the phantom mob, aimed, and threw with her strong paw.

"Ow!" the large phantom in the middle screamed, as the key had ripped out his eye. Blood that seemed like the blood of time itself poured out of its large hole, and the entire eyeball lay next to the sewer pipe, the pupil squirming around, looking for its body.

As the phantom (Frost decided to nickname him Noeye right then) plummeted toward the pipe sensing its eye, the others followed, unable to turn around.

Whoossh!

A large stream of dirty water and poop came out of the pipe, and the phantoms disintegrated  turning back into time. The eyeball hopped over with a squish, squish, wondering where its body went. The key came out of the eyeball, and went into the sewage, turning into poop but fixing the pipe so that it didn't look like the incident ever happened. The eyeball rotted as the life connection between it and its body finally was cut.

"How did you think of that?" Frost asked Mia. 

Mia beamed.

"You taught me about some of the legends and gave me this key, right?" Mia said. Frost nodded, wondering where this conversation was going.

"Well, you see, I had the key when I came, and wondered what it was for. But then, I remembered something about you saying that it was enchanted to defeat phantoms. So I brought it along, and while we ran from the phantoms I cooked up this awesome plan!" Mia explained. Frost smothered her with a hug.

"Mia, next to Dolphin, you're the best buddy ever." she said. Mia gave her friend a nervous grin.
