Epilogue, sort of

<snip>
Evil-Phil stood, and pointed at Phil, releasing his grip on his
testicles.
"You've won this one FeBuggure, I would have gotten away with it this
time, if it weren't from you meddling kids!"
With that one of the flying dragon-wraiths swooped from the sky,
grabbing Evil-Phil by the shoulder's lifting him into the sky and
carrying him off into the distance. "YOUR DESTINY WILL BE MINE!!!!" he
yelled as he disappeared.
"Yeah bollocks" said Phil.

Everyone had been so interested in watching Dean's flaming head that they
didn't notice Dante and the others rushing out of the castle at
approximately a third of the speed of light.
Inside the castle, the timer reached zero and the entire top half of the
castle exploded, collapsing down in a roaring heap just as Evil Phil flew
off into the distance with the rented dragon-wraith.
It was only after a few minutes that the crew noticed that McJohn was
dressed like a 1930s gangster and Sandoval was dressed like Pancho Villa.
Finally, it began sinking in.
"Where the smeg did you get those outfits?" asked Jay.
McJohn pointed at Sandoval. "Elian here conjured them up. I guess that's his
special power here."
Elian nodded.
"Well at least you'll both have something for the nest fancy dress party,"
Alota said sarcastically.
They were interrupted as Dean somehow reconstituted himself again. He made
a few cursory movements to make sure he wouldn't fall apart again, then
snatched McJohn's fedora and stuck it over the burned roots of his hair. He
looked around, and finally said "Let's get the **** out of here."
"Good plan," said Amber.
As the crew walked back to the shuttles, John Smith, still unconcious beside
one of the Starbugs where they had left him during the battle, came around,
saw Doctor Keto again, and passed out.
"Silly bollocks," muttered Holly from his watch on Alota's wrist.
The ships took off one by one and their pilots began plotting courses back
to the Blue Dwarf. Aboard one of them, McJohn looked over at Elian.
"Erm...did we actually get any mining done while we were here?"
Sandoval shrugged.
