A/N: This is the story you have all been waiting for. My story will be 3 official parts (Which does not count in chapters): what happened a few years ago, the event that would kill Green Shadow and the aftermath. I am trying this story in 3rd person because I never thought of doing it until a friend of mine asked for it and I am just so bad when talking about perspective in 3rd person. If nobody knew, I got a flu, toothaches, headaches, and almost though dengue. I am sorry if I haven't been constantly releasing stories because of schoolwork and sickness. Now I think I should be able to release stories weekly because of summer and the fact I'm not as in bad condition. I said that because I want to dedicate myself to fanfiction after my giant mistake in Fimfiction. So far...no hate comments/review, which I don't know if it's a good or bad thing. Also, if you private message/favorite/review then you will get a shoutout (guaranteed) from me in my next latest story/chapter, even if it just says "please stop, you are retarded" (But please don't write it down, it hurts sometimes guys. Make fun or whatever but just give me something to improve so I would not be "retarded"). You can only get 1 shoutout by me :) Enjoy the first chapter.
On the Earth (maybe) near where you are standing, not far, far away, there is a city near the north of Suburbia named Extreme Anti Zombie Organization, or XAZO. Nobody knew why the city was named that way and why the zombies almost never touch this village although it was only a mile away from the zombie's main base. It had everything a plant would need, from plant food to their own houses made of cement and wood. There lived two best friend both in the age of 10: a peashooter named Stella and a sunflower named Summer, best known in the city for their bond of friendship. No matter where you go in XAZO, you might find the couple holding hands while strolling through the city or leaning on each other's shoulder. Stella has a unique ability: She could change the color of her eyes from yellow to blue and vice versa. This ability is so special, only one plant had ever had the same ability: Summer's younger sister, Olivia. Because of that, Olivia could recognize Stella immediately, but Stella never knew that she could recognize Olivia out of thousands of plants. But then an event happened that had almost broke their friendship.
It all happened when some type of liquid leaked near the kitchen of Summer's house. It came from a Foot Soldier trying to burn the house down, but he ran away because someone almost spotted him. Stella was curious about the liquid as she rubbed her pod on her purple hoodie given to her unlucky mother who died fighting zombies in the military 3 year ago. And then, out of nowhere, the liquid started to catch fire. She started to freak out and she ran as fast as she can to Summer and Olivia. She told them that someone tried to set the house on fire and try to escape, not mentioning that she set it on instead. She tried to find Summer's parents but they were not near her. Then at the living room, she saw a burnt plant who only looked up and fainted away as she started to form tears in her eyes. She tried to drag him but it was too hot without her protective fireman uniform or at least gloves for that matter. She dashed through the exit door with only seconds before a wooden plank from the 2nd floor dropped and blocked off the exit.
"Summer, go up high!" Stella shouted. "I'll try to find help!"
She looked at the cement house. It is burning very fast with the fire almost burning the first floor.
"Stella!" A voice came out from a burning balcony. Stella looked around to be shocked by a sunflower forcing a smile while choking on the fumes.
"Summer! Hang on!" She screamed. She looked around and saw a plasma pea wearing a fireman suit and a red fire helmet came to Stella.
"Dad! Help me please! I accidentally set the house on fire!" Stella hugged the plasma pea, which made him groan.
"You 'accidentally' burned a house? I thought my wife had problems." He gave her an oxygen mask and protective uniforms.
"I was cold so I rubbed my hoodie to my pods. There was some type of water leaking after that and the house started to set on fire." She took off her purple hoodie and tried to explain to her dad.
"Static electricity Stella" the plasma pea replied. "Do not rub your pods on your coat near leaking gas" He looked around and finally answered. "Stella, go get Summer and her sister. They are both on the balcony. I'll try to find her parents."
"One of her parents are already dead in there! I think it was her dad! We can only save Summer and her sister Olivia! Her mother is working in a medical supply somewhere outside of town" Stella cried inside her mask. She remembered seeing the burnt plant near the living room. The Plasma Pea hugged the Peashooter and finally said something.
"Go in there and rescue your friends then, sweetie" Stella rushed in, despite the danger, ran into the wild fire and hyper upstairs. She could see her dad following pursuit, but dashed to other rooms trying to find others who are trapped in the burning bottom.
"Please be safe, Summer" Stella thought as she tried to stop sobbing. She finally got to the balcony, with her clothes burning slowly. She saw Summer fainted and a Shadow Flower next to her trying to wake her sister.
"Olivia! Follow me!" Stella shouted on her mask. She hugged Summer and Olivia and jumped down from the 6 meter burning building into a pool already set for them. Stella saw her missing the pool by a few inches and she flipped her back to the floor trying to break the fall. Stella broke the fall for Olivia and Summer but knocked herself out. Everyone rushed to the three plants, which Olivia was the only plant conscious. She saw her sister and her best friend unconscious on the ground as lifeless as a dead plant made Olivia scared. An ambulance arrived half an hour later, carried the 2 plants out of the scene of the crime with Stella's dad feeling shocked about his daughter's sacrifice. They tried to find Summer's parents in the debris and instead found a burnt plant that was far from alive and was specified after a long time as a male plant.
*some time later*
Stella finally got out of the coma she got, choking on herself and looking around to find herself in a hospital. A fire flower came to her as soon as she awoke.
"How are you…Stella?" The fire flower looked at her list.
"I'm fine. Have you've seen Summer?" She asked
"Yes" The nurse answered but hesitated, "She's...undergoing an operation. She have heart-problems after the fire. It was very brave of you to sacrifice yourself trying to rescue someone at a very young age"
Stella was shocked. All because of her, Summer almost died and if the surgery wasn't successful, she would potentially die. Her heart felt like she stopped for a moment.
"What happened to me then?" Stella asked the nurse. The fire flower was surprised and finally broke the silence.
"You broke your back so we have straighten your stem and after that you, for some reason, became faster and your eyes changing color has been improved."
"Wait so I can change more colors in my eyes?" Stella asked her nurse. She looked confused but then nodded.
"You could actually change to all of the colors you want so it's kind of a weird situation. I heard you are the only person except one other that I know has the ability" The fire flower looked around.
Stella thought about what she had done. She could potentially killed 2 plants which 1 is guaranteed dead. She might have to face a very bad punishment. She tried to look at it in a better way but there isn't any way to make it better except for saving Summer and Olivia. She started to sob and hid under her blanket trying to cover away her tears forming down her eyes. She felt scared for her friend's life and also she will be taken to custody. But the Fire Flower could see her tearing eyes and only smiled at her.
"It's ok. I'm sure that I could try to help you" She turned her head around to see if there's a plant coming. Stella stopped but her red eyes are still visible.
Then a Fire Flower walked into the room. It looked like a smaller version of
The nurse.
"It's nice to see you again, mum" the smaller Fire Flower smiled
"So was it a success?"
"I guess so. But it feels kind of weird that I changed to a different variant after that surgery. I still feel very mad to people"
A shocked peashooter trembled as she knew what happened. Stella sobbed under the blanket as she tried to calm herself down. But it didn't worked and she started to cry as Stella tried to make herself sound as little as possible to hide her cries. She knew that the surgery was a success but then she made Summer looked different than her normal appearance. Her cries sounds like squeaks to the flowers in the room, but Summer heard her "squeaks" so she came close to the crying peashooter and opened the blanket, revealing Stella with her head to her pillow. Stella could only whimpered through her tears.
"I'm sorry if I haven't save your dad. I saw him…burnt to death. I could have saved him" She started to whimpered even more, "But instead, I was scared that I would burn myself. I left him died instead. I only saved you and your sister. After that, I…"Stella started to choke on herself, "I still…felt guilty for…not saving someone…you trust" the crying peashooter looked away in shame, trying not to mention that she burned the house "by accident". But then the most unexpected thing happened…
Summer hugged her and wiped some of Stella's tears. Stella was shocked about Summer's gesture. Even Summer's mum was also shocked to her stem.
"Wait that is your best friend?" Summer giggled at her mother's confused look.
"Yea, you haven't been focused to our family or specifically me, did you?" Summer then turned to Stella and gave her another hug and finally answered. "Don't be so harsh of yourself. You shouldn't have to push yourself"
Stella was scared that she might be going to be in big trouble for what she done. All the negative things started to cloud her minds and thinking of what she could have done. She could have saved Summer's father, she could have kept Summer's appearance, she could have helped her life to stop being so threatened, Stella could have saved Summer and Olivia without her breaking her stem. But then a comment broke Stella to reality.
"I know what you are thinking. You could have saved my father and you could have lived a more happy life not to see me look dreadful and different. And if my mother haven't told you, you have been out for like almost 2 weeks. But you don't have to push yourself pass the limit and make things looks worse. I would never let it ruin you."
Another shock took Stella away. She heard enough. Killed a best friend's father, changed the appearance of Summer and made Stella herself broke her stem 2 weeks to awake her from coma yet still not fully recovered. Summer's mother stopped Stella from her rage with a kind of sad comment.
"You better get to sleep, you still need to recover because you are still very weak right now"
Stella didn't want to go to sleep. What if the nightmares of her fury destruction ended up in her dreams? What if while she's sleeping, the others decide the fate of her because they knew she burned the house down in the first place?
Summer looked at the scared peashooter and whispered to her mother "Let me help her sleep" Then she started to sing a lullaby
"Wait a second give me time to think
Remind me how it feels to hear your voice
Your breath is useless because I can't feel a thing
Living life as if we had a choice
Anywhere, anytime, I would do anything for you
Yesterday, I thought that I'll never see you again
But now I can see it's time to
Sing you to sleep now
Sing you to sleep
Sing you to sleep now
Sing you to sleep
Remember things that time could have erased
I can hear your whispers in my mind
You've become things I cannot embrace
Our memory will be the last mistake
Sing you to sleep now
Sing you to sleep
Sing you to sleep now
Sing you to sleep…"
It was soothing and warm for Stella. A lullaby her mother always sing that was famous around the village. With Summer's voice she started to felt sleepy and drifted off to her dream lands, hoping for a good sleep to recover and that nobody knew the truth what happened.
A/N: There is a pretty obvious references to Star Wars and a song by Alan Walker. Can you guess it? All will be revealed in the next chapter.
