said BC. ‘This is going to be hard.’
    The beast hovered in front of the chopper. Then it flapped its huge wings. ‘It’s a fire-wave attack!’ said Kai.
    Kai hit the slushy button. Ice slush flew out from the chopper’s roof. As it hit the beast it turned to water.
    Then the beast lifted its largest tail. With one quick flick the tail wrapped around BC. The dogbot was caught.

‘I’m coming, BC,’ Kai called. He swooped back in with the chopper. But the beast flicked its other tails and sent the chopper backwards. It will breathe toxic breath on BC, thought Kai. I must save him.
    Suddenly the beast’s tail let go and BC began to fall. Oh no! The beast must have smashed his jet pack, thought Kai. I have to catch him.
    But then BC zoomed back up towards the chopper.
    â€˜You’re okay,’ said Kai.
    â€˜Yes. I tricked it,’ said BC. ‘I got an upgrade. It stops toxic breath. And its breath can’t hurt me anymore.’
    But then the beast flapped its wings once more.

The beast whipped its tails through the walls of ice. Then it gave one massive flap of its wings.

    Suddenly a wave of water and ice fell on Kai and BC.
    Kai and BC flew through the water and ice. They just made it back to the chopper. ‘Are you okay, BC?’ Kai asked.
    â€˜Yes, toxic breath is gone but this beast is tough,’ said BC. ‘We need as much ice as we can get. But how?’
    Then Kai’s orb beeped. Kai took off the Sword Ice-Striker and looked at the orb sitting in it. ‘It’s the BMC again,’ said Kai.

    â€˜We got an upgrade to the chopper, BC. It has voice-activated flying now. I don’t need to be in it to fly it. I can fly the chopper by telling it what to do with my orb. That means I can battle with the Sword-Ice Striker and we can use the chopper too. I’m going to try it.’
    Kai hit chopper command on his orb. Then he put his Sword-Ice Striker back on. He and BC hovered just behind the chopper.
    â€˜Slice through the mountains,’ said Kai in a loud voice into the orb. The chopper took off.
    â€˜Dump slushy ice on the beast,’ said Kai again into the orb. ‘It’s working BC. Quick, let’s go get this beast.’
    The chopper cut through a wall of ice. It fell on the beast. Then it dumped slushy ice on the beast’s tails.
    â€˜We are winning,’ said BC.
    But it wasn’t enough.
    The beast’s huge wings rose out from the ice. ‘Another fire-wave attack coming,’ said BC.
    â€˜Not this time,’ said Kai. He flew in very close to the beast. Its wings were ready to flap. I have to time this just right, thought Kai. As its wings were closing together Kai pushed the sword button on the Sword-Ice Striker.
    The sword shot out at the beast’s wings. The wings closed around the sword. And then they froze and turned to ice.
    The frozen beast fell to the ground.

‘The beast is beaten,’ said Kai. ‘It has no more fire and toxic breath. Time to take this beast to the Outlands.’ He called the chopper to him and climbed in. Then he took the Sword-Ice Striker off. ‘Ready to do your stuff, BC?’
    â€˜Ready,’ said BC.
    Kai hit the button on BC’s collar. Beams of red light flew from BC’s collar. They formed a cage around the beast.

    BC lifted the ray cage. ‘Follow me,’ he said to Kai. Then they flew to the ice border-land’s beast gate.
    Kai slowed the chopper and sent a message to the BMC to open the gate.
    The gate in the wall slid open. BC pushed the beast inside.
    The sword hovered back to Kai. Then BC’s ray cage turned off.
    As the gate closed, the beast’s wings slowly opened.
    But Kai and BC did not see that.
    â€˜We’ve done it, BC.
    Good job,’ said Kai. ‘Time to go home now.’
    BC climbed back into the chopper. Then Kai keyed in the codes for the lighthouse.
    â€˜The ice border-land and the wind land
