The rock land was shaking and rocks were tumbling down from the cliffs.

‘Something's happening on the other side of those cliffs,' said BC, his tail wagging madly.

Kai flew above the cliffs and looked down into a valley. The valley was surrounded by tall mountains and it was filled with toxic blue water.

It looked like a bright blue pool. In the centre of the pool was an enormous beast.

‘It's stomping with its feet and it's very angry,' said BC. ‘Is it a clone or a real beast?'

Kai looked at his watch.

‘It's a real beast,' Kai said. ‘My watch tracks the chips the BMC have put into the necks of the beasts and this one has a BMC chip in its neck.'

Just then Kai's orb beeped.

‘It's a message from the BMC telling us that a beast is loose in Beastium,' said Kai.

‘Looks like we've already found it,' said BC. ‘And it's one we've not battled before.'

Kai took a photo of the beast on his orb. A card popped up on the screen.

‘It's a mega-mutant,' said Kai.

‘In toxic water!' said BC.

‘Oh no,' said Kai looking up from his orb. ‘Look, It's cloning!'

‘Now there are ten beasts!' said BC. ‘Nine clones and one real beast.'

‘We need help,' said Kai. He quickly sent Border Captain Ying Li a message on his orb.
‘I've told Ying Li to come across from the mud land.'

‘New pests are hatching in the water as well,' said BC. ‘They've got glowing green and red bodies and wings.'

‘And they're dropping fly poo in to the water and that's making more pests,' said Kai. ‘I'm going to see if there's a border guard that has battled this beast before.'

Kai hit the button for the border guard files on his orb.

Then he tapped on the mega-mutant card. He waited while the orb found a match.

‘This guard is from Africa,' said Kai as clicked on the name and Jango's battle file came onto the screen.

‘I'm sending him a text right now,' said Kai. ‘Ying Li And Akin Jango will be here soon. We need a plan.'

‘Yes,' said BC. ‘Because there's another clone now! That makes eleven beasts and maybe more on the way!'

‘This is bad,' said Kai.

‘Ying Li reporting for duty,' Captain Kai,' said a voice through the headset speakers.

‘You sure got here fast,' said Kai. ‘Did you discover anything while you were in the mud land?'

‘Yes,' answered Li. ‘I think I've worked something out. The BMC told me that all beasts that have C-cells all went through the Outlands gates when the power failure happened. So maybe the shock messed with their cells.
And I think when C-cells from those beasts mix with toxic water they can clone.'

Then an almighty noise came from the valley below.

Kai, Li, BC and BF watched as the beasts let out a terrible noise. Rocks fell and cliffs collapsed. The whole of the rock land shook.

Ten beasts stomped their feet and roared at the team.

‘You said there were eleven beasts in your message,' said LI. Where's the other one?

‘Oh no,' said Kai looking at his watch. ‘The real beast has gone away.

‘Clone attack!' said BC.

Kai and BC flew out of the valley and over the cliffs.

‘Ying Li and Jango will have those clones under control in no time, BC,' said Kai. ‘We need to find the real beast before it can clone again.'

‘Yes,' said BC. ‘We have to beat it before it can put more
beast poo in the toxic water.'

‘I'm tracking it on my watch,' said Kai. ‘It should be on the other side of that mountain range.'

Kai flew the jet towards the range and hovered just above it. ‘There it is,' he said.

‘It's even bigger than before!' said BC.

‘And it is stronger too,' said Kai looking at his watch.
‘It was only a nine before. I'm calling the other two. We'll need to join the jets to beat this beast.' Kai used his orb to send a message to his team. ‘It might be stronger but I know how to beat this beast.'

BC's tail began to wag.
‘I can hear something,' he said.

‘What is it?' asked Kai as he looked out the back window for his team.

‘Toxic water flowing down towards the beast!' said BC.

‘We're here,' said Li. ‘Ten dried out beasts all pinned down and fast asleep.'

‘Well done, team,' said Kai.
‘We need to join up fast. Triple the drying power and we can battle as one.'

Li and Jango lined up their jets side by side and Kai hovered just above them. Then Kai hit the triple-battle-jet button on the dash and the three jets were joined as one.

‘Here's the plan,' said Kai. ‘We all blast super-hot wind from our jets at the water jets
and beast wings to dry them up. While we do that, I'll spray the pests. BC, I want you to fly around the beast's legs and annoy it. When it raises its foot to stomp on BC, we'll send Chimp in to fire his banana bombs under its foot.'

‘Won't we need them to battle the toxic breath and hand attacks?' asked Jango. ‘They'll be stronger too, now.'

‘Our super-hot drying wind will blow it all back at the beast,' answered Kai. ‘BF, you need to be ready to use your hypnotic eyes on it as soon as it falls.'

‘And then I'll pin it down with a net,' said Li.

‘Quick,' shouted BC. ‘The beast is crouching down. It's going to put poo in the water.'

‘Battle team! Go! Go! Go!'
called Kai.

The triple jet flew straight at the beast blasting three jets of super-hot air. Kai sprayed the pests while BC flew in and out of the beast's legs.

The beast roared and raised its foot. ‘Now Chimp,' called Jango.

Banana peels landed right under the beast's foot just as it lowered its leg to stomp. And down it went.

Li and BF moved quickly. BF put the beast to sleep with her hypnotic eyes and Li pinned it down with the net.

‘Excellent beast-battling work team!' said Kai.

 

‘I'll activate the ray cage, BC.'

‘And then we take it to the Outlands,' said BC.
