Hi! I hope everybody's ready for this sequel. I hope it's as good as the first one! Thanks to all my reviewers and readers. Hope you like it. Here we go!
&&&&&&
Two girls in long, black cloaks approached the city of Acmetropolis.
"This is ridiculous, not to mention deadly. What are we doing here anyway?" One of the girls asked from beneath her cloak.
The other figure turned to glare at her. "The prophecy states that it must be reconciled." She hissed.
"Can't we just forget the whole prophecy? I know you received it in a vision, but the future can change…" The other girl pleaded.
"I will not be made a fool! We will do as I predicted. You are still as naïve as usual. You are still a coward."
"Who are we supposed to reconcile? Alaizabel is long gone and…"
"We are to reconcile the one who she captured. The one who she was supposed to test to be the new leader of the Haunting."
"I don't understand. I thought all the lost souls were destroyed to return to the afterlife." The girl asked confused.
"Yes of course, they all did. Except one…" The girl trailed off, appearing to be deep in thought.
"Who?" The other asked in obvious shock.
"Lexi Bunny."
&&&&&&
Tech sighed impatiently as Danger continued to throw a ball back in forth against a wall. The thumping was becoming unbearable.
"Can't you find something else to amuse yourself?" Tech asked through gritted teeth.
"No." Danger said monotonously.
"Why don't you watch TV like Rev and Slam are doing?"
"No."
"Danger! Will you just do something besides that? I'm trying to read and that stupid thumping is giving me a headache!" Tech exclaimed.
"No."
Tech glared at him. "Why not if you go hang out with Ace?" As soon as he said the words, he knew they were a mistake. The look Danger gave him said it all.
Both of them turned towards the window where Ace was looking out of. The whole time he was babbling off to Lexi.
"No." Danger said, turning back to the ball.
Tech sighed and decided to read elsewhere. Just then the alarm went off, signaling another villain.
They ran into the usual room. It wasn't the same without Zadavia, but Tech had created a computer to track down disturbances in Acmetropolis.
"Computer, what's the situation?"
"Lost teammate found…Lost teammate found." The computer said robotically.
Ace had drifted in to watch them while Tech stared at the computer in confusion.
"Computer, there are no lost teammates." Tech said, still confused.
"Lexi's lost!" Ace said. Tech ignored the statement.
"Tracking coordinates…Tracking coordinates…" The computer droned.
"Computer, cancel mission, I repeat, cancel mission."
"Found coordinates. Lexi Bunny located at Echbrooke Avenue."
Tech froze and Rev's eyes widened.
"We're on it." He said softly.
"Lexi's been found? I want to come too!" Ace said happily.
Danger pushed him back. "Stay here." He said firmly before leaving.
&&&&&&
"Any bright ideas?" Danger asked angrily.
"It's impossible. She can't be alive. She was destroyed. Ace told me how he found her in two pieces and…" Tech trailed off as he continued to drive.
"Maybe-it's-a-clone?" Rev asked hopefully. Slam grumbled in agreement.
"No. Who would want to make a clone of Lexi?"
The group fell silent as they tried to come to an understanding to the matter. Tech began to worry if maybe his dreams were right. And it was Alaizabel disguising herself to be Lexi.
Just then they reached their destination. And all of them gazed in obvious horror at the pale pink bunny who walked along the streets.
Tech came out first and began to race towards her. "LEXI! LEXI! STOP! WAIT UP!" He called, racing down the streets.
Lexi continued to walk casually as if she hadn't even heard him. Rev whizzed past him and grabbed Lexi's shoulder.
"Lex…" Rev said hopefully. Danger quacked next to him and Tech finally caught up to them, just as Slam arrived on the scene too.
Lexi turned slowly towards them. Her eyes were dull and blank. Her clothes were ripped and she didn't seem to know where she was.
"Excuse me, do I know you?" She asked monotonously.
"This can't be Lexi." Danger muttered.
"Lexi, remember us? The Loonatics? You were on our team, you helped us fight villains?" Tech asked hopefully.
"I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about. Excuse me, I must be going." She said dully as she shrugged off Rev's grip on her arm.
"Remember your powers? Your brain blasts and your sonic hearing?" Tech called after her. But she hadn't even looked back.
The Loonatics were so depressed, that they didn't even notice a dark cloaked figure standing above them.
&&&&&&
Lexi made her way to an abandoned building and entered it without a thought. In fact, she had begun to recognize it as her home.
"I hope that you bring me good news." The young girl said.
"I have successfully located what you ask of. In one month Acmetropolis will be ours." Lexi said.
"Excellent. Anna will be pleased when she returns." The young girl said.
"Haley, there were these four guys that claimed I was once their friends. They called themselves the Loonatics and they knew about my powers."
Haley's eyes widened. "Lexi, you are not supposed to have such thoughts. The Loonatics are trying to get you out of the way. They want Acmetropolis for themselves. In fact, they were the ones that brainwashed you. If it hadn't been for us finding you again, we may never have rebuilt what you started." Haley said sweetly.
"But I seem to remember…" Lexi trailed off as Haley cut her off.
"…You seem to remember nothing. Now Lexi be a good girl and don't mention any of this to Anna. It will only upset her more." Haley said icily.
Lexi nodded solemnly before leaving the room.
Haley sighed and turned away from the retreating rabbit. "Anna, you need to create a new potion, Lexi is beginning to remember. The Loonatics came to pay her a visit."
"Just stick to the plan. We can't have any interference with reawakening the Haunting. If you must, destroy the Loonatics so that they no longer interfere. This can not be ruined. I have waited almost a year for this moment and I will not let it slip by from those fools!" Anna snapped.
Haley cringed and agreed to the orders. Once they had reawakened Lexi she had been in a coma. When she had woken three days later, they explained that before she was knocked into a coma; she was being brainwashed to get rid of the Haunting. This was a long legacy passed on from generation from generation all in hopes of building an army to take over the world. Lexi came so close to making it all come true, and for the souls to rule forever instead of coming every one hundred years. But, there was a team that stopped it.
Haley sighed at the huge lie they had made to tell the rabbit. Yes, it was the Loonatics' fault that the Haunting was destroyed, but it was not Lexi who was in charge of ruling over the lost souls at the time. The sad part was that Lexi believed every word, she didn't recall a thing before this. Anna had made a potion to give her 'memories' of her rule of the Haunting. It seemed to be working until today.
&&&&&&
Anna sighed in irritation at Haley's horrible news. And here she had thought they were finally getting somewhere with Lexi until those damned fools showed up. She watched as the team talked amongst themselves for a while about their encounter with Lexi before returning into their vehicle and driving away. Anna followed them all the way to the cursed tower that had caused all of Alaizabel's dreams to come crashing down.
Anna looked at the tower in fury. "Haley! Send Lexi down to the Loonatics' tower. Tell her that she should take revenge on the destruction of her plan and kill the Loonatics!" Anna said angrily.
&&&&&&
A few moments later Lexi was on the scene and breaking into their home. The alarms instantly sounded and the team was on the scene. She recognized the group from earlier. Then she noticed a yellow rabbit that hadn't been there before. She squinted trying to remember where he had seen him.
He looked at her and his eyes sparkled with hope. "Lexi?"
Then, it hit her with a rush of happiness. "Ace?"
&&&&&&
Stupid place to stop I know, but I couldn't think of another place. Will Lexi get her memory back? Or will Anna and Haley put a stop to it? There'll be more information about them in the next chapter. Please review!
