A bit more of Rachel's powers
The next day Randy heard video game sounds in his room, knowing it was probably Howard he just tucked his head under the covers and groaned. Rachel was still asleep in her bed. Flare perked her head up and flew into Randy's room and turned the volume down on the TV. "Thanks." Randy muttered. He was still sore from the fight. Flare didn't see who was playing the game and looked around. She shrugged it off when she noticed the character wasn't moving and went back to Rachel's room.
Once she was gone, the door quietly shut without a noise and locked. The ninja mask and Nomicon were down stairs. Blood red eyes glistened when the sun light sparkled off of them. Randy poked his head out from the covers and lazily rolled over. "Hello randy." Her voice echoed quietly through the room, like a soft whisper but it was anything but calming. Rachel woke up after a while and undid her braid. Randy's eyes snapped open and he quickly sat up. Dark Rachel laughed softly. "Did I wake you? I'm sorry." She purred softly, her voice echoing making it impossible to figure out where she was. Randy looked around. "...What are you doing here?" Randy asked and then he saw that the ninja mask wasn't there, his heart tighten in his chest.
"I saw you and Rachel out in the woods last night." She said. Rachel was brushing her hair. Randy didn't answer her and jumped down to the floor. "Don't try to escape, I locked the room. And no one can hear you." She said. Randy frowned. "Why are you doing this?" he asked glancing side to side. Dark Rachel watched him. "Because I can." She replied. Randy turned around, trying to spot where she was. "What a shoob." He thought to himself. "At least I'm not attacking you. Yet." She said watching him. "It wouldn't be much of a fight though." Rachel looked at the time and it was almost noon and she hasn't seen or heard Randy. She got up and walked to his room, knocking on the door. "Randy? Are you up? It's almost noon." She said. Randy looked over at the door. "I'm trap in my room." He replied not sure if she could hear him. She couldn't hear him.
Dark Rachel smirked. "She can't help-" She started to say. Rachel had used a crystal pick to open the door. "I can't help?" she finished for her. "Just leave us alone." She hissed at her. Dark Rachel stepped back. "I-Wha-How?" she stammered. "My powers. Now leave." She demanded and Dark Rachel left. Randy blinked and looked at Rachel. Rachel smiled slightly. "Even she's scared of me..." She muttered quietly. She looked up at Randy. "Are you alright?" she asked. "Um Yeah I'm fine." Randy replied with an innocent smile. She sighed. "That's good." She said softly smiling back. "Wait it's already noon?" Randy asked. She pointed at his clock. "Yeah." She replied. Randy quickly picked up some stuff and bolted into bathroom, slamming the door close.
She chuckled quietly and went back to her room. She picked up a book a read. Later on Randy was in the living room, scanning through the calendar a little more relaxed once he found out it wasn't anything important happening. Rachel was playing her guitar quietly. Howard was still in the house due to the fact he was scared of Dark Rachel and didn't want to leave. Rachel saw dark Rachel watching them from a distance and she was sure she saw Rose too. "Why are you so calm?" Howard asked Randy slightly frustrated. Randy shrugged, still staring at the calendar. Rachel came down stairs. Her hair was still down and lied on her shoulder. "I think I saw my evil twins." She said. In unison both Randy and Howard looked at her. Randy holding the ninja mask in his hands. Rachel glanced at the window and back at the two of them. "Just keep an eye out for them." She said before going back up the stairs.
"Yeah we'll do that." Randy replied, watching her leave. Howard looked out the window. Blood red eyes stared back at him. Rachel was tired from everything that had been going on and sprawled out on her bed. Just then a scream broke out throughout the house; Randy looked over at his friend who was walking away from the window. Rachel bolted down the stairs. "What is it?" She asked. Howard looked at Rachel. "Your twin." He replied, pointing at the window like a little boy that saw a monster. Randy was putting on his ninja mask. Rachel put hers on too. Dark Rachel's eyes disappeared. Randy snuck over to the door to the backyard and looked outside. Rachel followed. Randy looked both ways before stepping outside. Howard face palmed. Rachel had a flame in her hand. Randy took out a sword. "What's with the game of hide and seek? We know you two are here." Randy asked.
Dark Rachel appeared behind him with a small sword in hand. Rachel was grabbed by rose and held her mouth shut. Dark Rachel swung her sword at him, stabbing him in the side. Randy yelped and slump down onto his knees, gripping his side. "Ninja." Howard said in shock. Rachel's scream was muffled and she struggled in rose's grip. Dark Rachel smirked and withdrew her sword. Randy bit down on his teeth and glanced at Dark Rachel. Dark Rachel smirked at him. She held her sword tightly. Rachel was struggling to get free and over to help Randy. Randy got up using his sword and faced her. Dark Rachel lit her sword on fire and aimed it at him. "You have yet to complete heal from Rachel's little attack. You're still weak." She said. Randy moved away from her. "Tell me something I don't know." He replied, knowing he wasn't in the best shape to do any fighting. She swung the sword at him again. Rachel struggled, worried about randy. Randy jumped away from the sword but fell down on his knees again.
Dark Rachel knocked him onto his back and held her sword to his neck. Randy's eyes widened. Suddenly Howard hit Rose with a vase. Rose moaned in pain then turned towards Howard still holding Rachel. Rachel struggled in her grip trying to get to randy. Dark Rachel pinned him to the ground and was going to strike him but spiked vines wrapped around her wrists and pulled her away from randy and across the yard. Rachel's locket was glowing a pure bright white light. Randy got up and looked over at Rachel. Howard back away. Rose let go of Rachel and back away from her. Orbs of the same light sat in her hands and her eyes glowed the same way. She had Rose and dark Rachel backed up against the fence. "If you dare try to harm him again, you'll wish you never existed." She said threating but in a calm tone that frightened them. They quickly left. Randy still grasped his side, staring at Rachel in amazement. Howard on the other hand just stared at them. When the light died down she ran to Randy's side. "Are you alright?" she asked worriedly. "Y-eah... just in pain." He replied. Rachel wrapped up his side after removing his ninja mask and helped him up carefully. "Then you are not okay." She said, concerned.
Randy looked down, he didn't want to worry Rachel a whole lot. "Just little." He replied, his body shook slightly. She helped inside carefully. She knew she couldn't really do much to help him and that worried her. He was already recovering from her stank'd form's attack and now this. Howard closed the door after them and then followed behind. She helped him to the couch and had him lie down and rest. Nomi appeared to help him and Rachel started to leave to her room. Randy watched her while Howard stood by with his arms folded across his chest. Rachel went to her room and glanced and Nicki, who lied on her bed in her book form. Rachel quietly shut the door and faced the window. "I need you." She spoke quietly and Nicki turned human. "Yes?" she asked. Nomi made sure Randy's wounds were wrapped and treated properly. Randy looked at the fix up wounds and then gave the Nomicon a thumbs up.
Nomi smirked slightly. "You need to rest. If you need anything just call for me." He said before disappearing into his book form. Rachel continued to face away from Nicki. "I think I might be in love..." she said quietly. Nicki smiled softly and gestured for her to sit next to her. Rachel did so. "I wouldn't be surprised. Between me and you I've been in love for a long time." She said. "Really?" Rachel asked and Nicki nodded. "Nomi and I weren't always books you know. We were human once too. It was about a nine hundred years ago. We both had families and we were good friends. I fact even the Sorcerer was a good friend of ours before he became what he is now." She said. Randy tried to get some rest. Howard was sitting on a chair, taking a nap. Rachel looked at Nicki who didn't finish the rest of the story and just left it there. "Are you in love with Nomi?" she asked. Nicki blushed lightly. "Yeah..." she replied. Rachel grinned. "I won't tell." She said. Randy sighed and closed his eyes; he was not sleeping just resting. Rachel brushed her hair out and left it down and sat on her bed and used her powers to start to create something. Randy just laid there until he fell asleep. When Rachel finished she set it aside carefully and went to sleep.
