Last time on "The Dragons of Metal,Sun, and Thunder!"

"Why are you acting like this Spike?" Keshaun asked putting his hand on Spike's shoulder.

"When I was consumed by my greed. I felt like I possessed by a monster. I saw everything and felt everything I was doing but I couldn't control myself." Spike said starting to cry a little.

"I have an idea for dealing with that side of you. But you have to trust me. What in your mind do you see the library as?" Keshaun asked grabbing Spike's shoulders.

"Um, I think of a mountain range or mountain cave with gems for some reason." Spike said wiping his eyes.

"Spike the Dragon, Golden Oaks Library, Mountain cavern." Keshaun said as his phone records it.

"Welcome to the metaverse, Spike. The mind of all things with a soul. My clothes changing represent my will of rebellion. And finally this version of the metaverse is called a palace. Made by someone who has twisted desires." Keshaun said explaining while the time chamber was transforming into a mountain side.

"If someone has some very deep desires. Their palace will come to fruition." Keshaun said as another portal opened revealing Justice and Caleb in different clothing.

(Justice is wearing this as his phantom thief attire and his weapon is a great sword.)

(Caleb is wearing this.)

"Sorry about that Keshaun. I thought you were a monster in the form of him." Shadow Spike said with a deeper and higher voice.

Shadow Spike is wearing purple knight armor excluding a helmet. He has yellow eyes, and allot of scars on his face that looks really recent.

"What happened to you?" Justice asked.

"My greed did this. I tried to stop him by myself. Though you can tell that it didn't work out." Shadow Spike said putting his hand on one of his scars.

"You wanted us to help with the greed. But in order to do so, we had to come here. So that you can have help against your greed." Keshaun deducted as Shadow Spike nodded.

"I know my way around this mountain. It wouldn't be a good thing to keep you on the same path as me. This mountain has multiple ways to get to bottom. Try to avoid the greed, he comes to take the gems in the walls. I know you three are strong, but it's a warning for me in the real world." Shadow Spike said as they nodded before Shadow Spike disappeared.

(Intro sequence but the two shadowy figures fighting are revealed to be Spike's greed and Spike)

Pov: Spike
June 21, 3:57 pm

It's been a whole day since I was introduced to the Metaverse. Right now I'm helping Twilight and Gilda with washing dishes.

"Hey Spike are you feeling any better?" Twilight asked drying a dish.

"I'm okay. Just going through puberty. I'll be myself in a few days." I said handing her another dish.

"Well I'm glad that you are acting like yourself again. I thought you were going to keep yourself in your room." Twilight said as we chuckled a little.

"Yeah like that is going to happen." I said with a small smirk on.

(Timeskip: three hours later)

Switch of Pov: Keshaun

I was doing some upgrades to Data for the metaverse and giving her a body.

"Update successful. I am now able to use a persona and be useful in the metaverse. Now commencing transfer." Data said as she transferred to her new body.

She is about 5 feet tall with white fur and purple hair. Her body is a slender build with some muscle in it. She heterochromic eyes with one being blue and the other being purple. Her ears are like a fox. She is also wearing a blue shirt, black pants, and grey shoes. She also is wearing a d-cup bra.

(both eyes look like this)

"Transfer completed. Thank you Keshaun." Data said before hugging me.

"No problem Data. I figured you might want to know what it's like to move around in your own body." I said patting her head.

"Nice to see you got things done on your hand so we going to the mountain?" Justice said interrupting us.

"Yeah. Get Caleb and Spike. We got a mountain to scale." I said pulling out phone.

After waiting for Caleb and Spike, we went into Spike's palace.

When we went in we got a look at Data's phantom thief attire. She is wearing a white skin tight bodysuit with blue highlights in it. She's got blue thigh high boots. Her mask is looks like a fox but blue and it covers her eyes.

"Nice design. Blue and white work nice." Justice said.

"We better begin soon. Who knows what Shadow Spike is doing fighting Greed Spike." Caleb said.

"You're right Soleil." I said.

"That his codename?" Justice asked.

"Yep. Even though the real Spike is with us, we should still use the codenames." I said.

"So what are you, me, and Data?" Justice asked.

"You're Bolt. I'm Steel, and Data is Vixen." I said.

"I am Vixen because I look like a fox. Vixen is the females of fox. Interesting because I also look like a renamon which is a fox like monster." Data said thinking out loud.

"Anyway we should get moving. Like Caleb said Shadow Spike might be fighting at this very moment." I said.

"I'll lead everyone. Persona!" Data said as blue flames decorated her mask as a white nine tailed fox appeared behind her.

"Nice persona. Looks like Vixen is our navigator." Justice said smirking.

"Yep. Now let's get going." I said as we all entered the mountain.

(Stop this at 2:00)

After a bit of walking, I saw the Miners were acting differently than before. They seemed to be shaking in fear. All of a sudden heavy footfalls echoed in the mountain. Pebbles and stalactites fall from the roof of the mountain.

(Stop at 3:16)

"Everyone, hide now!" Data yelled as we hide behind some rocks.

We saw that Greed Spike is walking towards the miners. I got a better look of him thanks to the gems.

"Holy shit he's huge." Justice said.

"Quiet down. He didn't see us yet. So don't blow our cover." Caleb whispered.

"He's also really strong, be careful." Data said.

Greed Spike is about 500 feet tall with spikes on his face, back, and tail.
Greed Spike instead of having purple and green scales has black and red scales. He also has red claws with a hint of black. On his face is a bunch of old scars and a sadistic smile as black blood dripped slowly.

Before they could say anything Greed Spike cleared his throat.

"Find that supposed real me, his friends, and that hero and you all won't die like your friends. I might also give you all of the gems you could want." Greed Spike said in a deep almost demonic voice.

The shadows nodded in fear as they began to look for us.

"Whoa this is Shadow Spike's palace and he just took it over like he took a pawn in chess." Justice whispered.

"That's true but now we got to deal with the shadows now." I whispered making sure he doesn't see us yet.

"I hope you don't blow this up. Because you might become my next meal." Greed Spike said growling on the next meal part before leaving.

"All of the shadows are on guard, be careful." Data said.

After a bit of sneaking around I saw a shadow by himself. I decided to take him out incase he saw us.

"I'll reveal your true form!" I said ripping off the gas mask

(Stop at 0:56)

The shadows transformed into a puddle of black and red water before transforming into two angels, a ghost rider look a like, and a green fairy

"They may have the numbers, but we have the power." Data said smirking.

"Persona! Take them down Arsene!" I said as Arsene cast Eigaon on the two angels.

"Pass the baton and let Caleb take take out High Pixie." Data said as I gave Caleb a high five.

"I got this in the bag." Caleb said.

"Let go Anat!" Caleb yelled as Anat used Freidyne on High Pixie causing her to call like the two angels.

"I got it here guys!" Justice said as Caleb baton passed to Justice.

"Let's go Kala-Nemi!" Justice yelled as he use Hamaon on Hell Biker killing him instant.

"Time for the finale!" Justice said as we began to rush them down in an all out attack.

When the attack ended, Justice began to pose as if he was on a stage.
As the words Fall to the Thunderstorm appeared in a corner as the enemies were bleeding out before disappearing.

"That's all she wrote!" Justice said as the song stopped.

"Incredible work out there." Data said as we kept running towards the bottom.

(Timeskip brought by a chibi Keshaun Caleb Justice and Spike running through the palace with Data navigating.)

After showing Spike a safe room, getting all of the treasure boxes, dealing with a few puzzles, and fighting a lot of shadows. We managed to get to the bottom of the mountain. As far as the eye could see gold, gems, and other riches surrounded us. We also saw Greed Spike asleep with Shadow Spike in a cage.

"Spike stay hidden until I say so. I got to get Shadow you down." I whispered so Greed Spike wouldn't hear me.

I tiptoed towards Shadow Spike as quietly and quickly as possible. I got to his cage and began to pick the lock.

"Thank you for this." Shadow Spike said as I got the lock off.

As we were about to climb down I noticed that Justice was about to touch a sword that Greed Spike has.

"Justice, what are you doing?" I whispered to him.

"Just taking this sword." Justice said about to grab it.

"Don't even think it. You might wake up Greed!" I whispered/yelled.

"Um, guys." Caleb said while Justice and I were arguing.

"I'm going to be quiet, promise." Justice said grabbing the hilt.

"Guys." Caleb said as I kept going on.

"Don't even think it dude." I said a bit louder.

"GUYS!" Caleb yelled.

"WHAT!?" Justice and I yelled before seeing Greed Spike looming over us. Growling as smoke came out of his nose. Teeth showing as his face just saids 'I will murder you for what you are doing'.

"Oh hey there Greed. We were just wandering around. We didn't mean to stumble upon your home. So if you can just-" I said before Greed grabbed me and Shadow Spike in his claws.

"Should've saw that coming." I said breaking the fourth wall.

"It seems that the miners won't be my lunch today. Now what do I do with you two. Oh I got it. Crushing you to death slowly will be good enough. Greed Spike said crushing us slowly.

"Don't even think it! Izanagi! Cross slash!" Caleb yelled as the persona and Caleb rush at Greed.

As the two attacks connected. Greed Spike lost his footing and slipped dropping Shadow Spike.

"You dare hit me. You must be some kinds of stupid. I still have your leader in my claws. So try anything and I'll crush him." Greed Spike said

"Don't worry about me. Try to kill him now!" I said pushing the claws away before they closed again.

"You should be quiet. I am going to kill you if they come any closer." Greed Spike growled crushing me in his claws.

"I think that won't work in your favor. Right guys, guys?" I said before seeing they were playing Buddyfight.

"Sorry you say something?" Justice asked

"You assholes! Wait is this revenge on the times I stopped you guys?" I asked.

"Not really. We just had to play a game of Buddyfight before saving you." Justice said as I gave them the finger.

"Besides Spike is doing that." Justice said as a confused expression grew on my face.

As saw that Spike was holding a sword in front of Greed Spike shaking like a leaf.

"Spike, what are you doing?! Are you insane?!" I asked as Greed looked over.

"I say he wants to have the power I have back." Greed Spike said smiling.

"That's not it. What I want, is for you to let him go!" Spike said pointing at Greed.

"And I thought you were smart. You could rule Terra with our power. Our strength. And you just want this sorry excuse of a guardian?" Greed Spike asked wondering if he was retarded.

"I don't care about your power. You're just something that I don't anything to do with anymore." Spike said stepping closer

"Then my threat really doesn't matter. Say goodbye to your guardian." Greed said before crushing my body and dropping my body onto the floor.

Switch of Pov: Spike

As I watched Keshaun fall to the floor. I rushed towards him as fast as I could before Keshaun raised his hand, telling me to stay away.

"No!" I yelled in shock.

"Spike, you wanted to help right?" Keshaun asked in pain.

"Yes. More than anything." Spike said.

"Then trust yourself." Keshaun said smiling before Greed smashed his foot against his body.

"Data! What's his status?" Justice asked getting up.

"He's alive, but losing a lot of blood." Data said as they rush over.

Justice using his great sword to strike the dragon proved to be ineffective against Greed. In fact him seem to get bigger.

"Justice stop! You're making Greed stronger!" Caleb yelled as he was smacked away.

"Yes you morons. Every attack makes me stronger. Don't you remember? I'm greed. I take everything and add it to me. As greed has in the past, and continues into the future. So try as much as you want, it'll be more fun than anything. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahah." Greed Spike said as I clenched my fist in anger.

"Stop th-"Stop this. Is that what you were going to say?" Greed Spike asked interrupting me.

"Did you forget? I'm you. So I know what you are thinking about, what you are talking about. I am you, and you are me. So why don't you stop lying to everyone, mainly yourself and give me control?!" Greed Spike asked before attacking me.

As the attack happened time began to slow down to a crawl. I saw Keshaun in front of me with a look of bravery.

"What?" Greed said in shock seeing Keshaun holding his claw.

"I won't let you hurt him! Believe it bitch!" Keshaun said glaring at him.

"Die damn you!" Greed said sending his other claw as Keshaun just stopped that.

As he was holding the claws I noticed that he was actually bending them slowly. Before long he pulled greed towards him and kicked him in the face. He growled in pain before as he head-butted greed five times before dropkicking him causing Greed reel back in pain.

"Die damn it!" Greed screamed slashing away as Keshaun continue to deflect the attacks.

"I had with you! So die me!" Greed screamed as Keshaun stand in front of the attack.

"Shadow you and just you should have some fun." Keshaun said before falling down.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahah! What a dumbass. Taking a bit for a weakling. Pathetic." Greed said before walking closer to me.

"Shut up." I said clenching my fist in anger.

"Spike are you sure?" Shadow me asked.

"Yes. Let's go!" I said in anger.

"What was that?" Greed asked mockingly.

(Stop at 2:27)

"I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU OVERGROWN EDGELORD!" Shadow me and I screamed as the room shaked a little.

"Are you ready to receive your true power?" A mysterious voice echoed in my mind.

"Yes! I won't give into my greed!" I said glaring up.

"You are more than just a weakling and he knows it. He's scared of our power." the voice said growling as well as I look at Greed.

"You're right. I'm more than a weakling." I said growling.

"Good, then let us forge our contract." the voice as an unbearable headache came to me as I began to toss and turn on the floor in pain.

"I am thou, thou art I. Let all see the true strength of Dragons. Call upon my name show them our strength!" the voice said as blue flames covered my face creating a mask that looked like a dragon.

"Very well. Bahamut!" I yelled ripping the mask off as blood and blue flames surrounded me.

(Bahamut is also around 500 feet tall in this story.)

As the flames subsided. I noticed I was wearing something else. I had a black jacket with wing patterns on the back. A purple scarf or bandana that covered my lower face. Blueish purple jeans. And green and purple shoes.

"I going to kill you for what you did to Keshaun, you bastard." I said glaring at him as Justice and Caleb joined up.

"Fine then. I'll take you out. I don't need anyone but myself to take you out." Greed said sweating.

"You're sweating. You know you can't win. So stop now and you can win." I said.

"Die!" Greed said rushing at us as we dodged.

"He's gotten weak all of a sudden. Spike try attacking him" Data said.

"Persona! Let's go Bahamut!" I said unleashing a torrent of fire at him as Greed just fell down.

"Take this." I said using a sawtooth sword to slice greed down.

"Persona! Let's go Anat!" Caleb said using an explosion on Greed.

"Persona! Get bent!" Justice yelled using a spell that created an icy tree.

"Persona! Bahamut!" I yelled as massive bolts of lightning shocked Greed to the point of near death as he began to reel in pain and fear.

As we surrounded him. Greed began to shake in fear and regret. As we rushed in for the final blow. I noticed that Greed was smiling.

As the words 'This is a dragons strength' in the corner as the rest showed a bunch of different dragons doing something great.

As soon the fight ended Greed began to tumble a bit before his back was against a wall. Blood leaked from his wounds.

(Stop at 1:07)

"I lost. Ha ha ha. Why am I finding this funny?" Greed asked confused.

"You lost because Spike has reach a new height in his power. While you had nothing." Keshaun said getting up despite his wounds healing.

"If you had something or in this case someone to fight for you grow stronger. And Spike shows it." Keshaun said tousling my head.

"You lost because you wanted to just use someone. You didn't want help. You wanted tools that would listen to you." I said with malicious intent.

"I know I did something bad but please don't kill me." Greed begged in fear.

"I won't be the one who decides it. That belongs to Spike." Keshaun said as Greed nodded.

"I will let you live, but I will use your power for good." I said as continued to nod in agreement.

"Good choice Spike. Let's go home." Keshaun said as we left with the meta-nav.

"Spike, you truly are something else than what you know." greed said to himself as his wounds began to heal.

As we exited my palace. I collapsed from exhaustion as Keshaun caught me.

Switch of Pov: Keshaun

After coming back from the palace, Spike collapsed from the exhaustion that comes when getting a persona. I took him to his room and put him in his bed.

"Sleep well Spike. You awaken to a very strong persona. I think you might be up before the dragon migration." I said to myself heading to my room to sleep.

(Outro sequence)
