Me: Wow I have people thinking so many things. Monkeymaniac thinks it will be all a dream and 4Evermonkeyfan believes Nova will retake the city...
Nova: At least someone's on my side.
Me: and I even got love-writer to cry a pool. I hope that pool doesn't go to waste. But it all hences the word: surprise. I even have a surprise here. Oh and this is two years after that memory of Nova's. Thanks for the reviews...
Nova: RUN!
Me: Huh?
Nova: Everyone's after you again.
Me: Oh...(runs away)
Nova: (stares as everyone rushes by her, then looks at awaiting readers) On with the story.
Of Squealers, Briefing, andStrange Fluxes
Nova awoke from her slumber. She felt herself holding something. She openned her eyes and smiled, 'Jinmay'. The girl had gotten her to hold her favorite hand-made stuffed animal. It was a robot monkey dollNova made before she lost her friends. It had a silver tail, a black helmet, an orange body,blue legs, a yellow face,redarms, and green eyes. Around its neck was a sash that had each hyper force member's color on it.
Getting out of bed, she gently placed the doll on the pillow. When she pulled her hands back, they burst into flames. This had been happening for a while and it didn't bother her, it concerned her, but not bothered her. She just shook it off, got into her ninja outfit and placed the sword belt around her waist, then exited the room. As she walked down the hall toward the command room, a male voice called her,
"Nova! Hey sis, wait up."
Nova turned around to see...Mandarin. (Oh, a shocker that hits you hard.)
He was his regular robot monkey self again (not a mutant). It had taken her (Nova) and Jinmay three months to get him back to normal. A scar across his chest was the only thing left to heal. Jinmay had found him on the edge of a cliff about to be killed by Formless and if SK wanted him dead, then that meant that he was probably a good person now. Nova, using some techniques she learned from Antauri, found out that he was good and helped the orange monkey turn over a new leaf. His eyes had changed too, they were now a light brown color with white pupils. He knew of her tattos as well.
"Hey, 'Darin, what's up?"
"Don't call me that please."
"Sorry, force of habit. I always did call Sprx...'Sparky'."
"I'm sorry, Nova. I didn't mean to bring that up."
"It's okay. Have you seen Jinmay?"
"I think she's in the command room. I was heading there myself. Care to join me o' fearless leader?"
"Everyone is fearful of something, Mandarin."
"Fun sucker."
Nova smiled, "That's what Sprx, Otto, and Chiro always called Antauri and Gibson."
"You know, now that I think about it, Chiro's not a bad kid after all. Neither is everyone else. And it looks like you finally got some sleep."
"Yea, Jinmay forced me to, but I don't get how she knew. I didn't leave any traces that I stayed up. Unless..."
Mandarin whistled. "IT WAS YOU! Youtold Jinmay on me you squealer."
"I had to. You needed your sleep. And badly I might add."
They walked in silence for a while, until Nova voiced something that had been bothering her for a while.
"Hey, Mandarin, are you jealous of Jinmay being second-in-command and me being leader?"
Mandarin thought for a minute. "Not really, I was surprised when you actually asked me to be third-in-command. I didn't think I even deserve to be here after all I did, but I'm guessing if you have the heart to forgive me, then I guess I can find the heart to forgive myself."
"You're learning, give yourself a cookie."
"Shut up."
She chuckled.
"Hey Nova?"
"Yea?"
"If you really feel like giving me a nickname, call me 'Rin'. It sounds better, sis."
"'Rin', it has a nice ring to it. Thank, bro."
Thebrother and sister smiled at each other, their bond healed after so many betrayals.
In the command room
Jinmay was working on some recent footage from the cameras installed around the city when the two walked in.
"What you got, Jinmay?"
"Well, Nova, there are no recent prisoner trains, so we're good with that. There is some activity at that creep's factory, but nothing we should worry about." the pink-haired girl answered.
"Any energy fluxes?" Nova asked.
"Well, there is one. Down in the 'Zone of Wasted Years', but there's something strange about."
"With everything that's going on, I bet nothing is strange." Mandarin said.
"The energy has absolutely no dark traces what-so-ever." Jinmay said
"I take that back."
Nova looked at the screen, curiously. "That is strange."
Then she felt a weight on her shoulders. She looked back and saw a pair oftransparent wings. She cried out in shock. Jinmay and Mandarin looked and saw the wings just as they disappeared. Nova was shaking.
"What was that?" asked Mandarin. Jinmay looked at the screen, "The energy flux has disappeared."
Nova continued to shake, 'What's happening to me? I thought my firey anger issue was the only thing I had to worry about.' She felt a hand on her shoulder. Mandarin.
"You okay, Nov?"
She calmed a bit at her nickname. "Yay, I'll be fine." 'But why did the flux disappear with the wings'
"Jinmay, Mandarin, tell this to no one. We'll check it out later."
"But what if it's dangerous?" questioned Mandarin.
"It didn't have any darkness, but it felt like it was... calling me.Keep an eye on it.If it shows up again, Mandarin and I will go check it out."
"Right."
Then, Nova turned to the door and left.
"Do you think its dangerous?" asked Jinmay.
"Maybe. But if my suspicions are correct and that energy is connected to Nova somehow, than it might be dangerous for bone-head." answered Mandarin. Jinmay smiled, Mandarin could read Nova better than her and sometimes that was a good thing.
Me: Done. Kinda shocking that I put Mandarin in there isn't it? And I finally lost everyone.
Nova: Yea, he's nice now.
Mandarin: That means alot coming from you.
Me: Aw how sweet.
(knock on door is heard. Mandarin and Nova answer it)
Mandarin: Hey F.N.L (Still LOVE that name)
Nova: Run
Me: They're back. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! (Runs away...again)
Mandarin: Read and review.
Nova: And bring a mallet to get rid of everyone. Please and Thank you.
Me: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
