Theme Challenges 2: Madison and Nick

Chapter 4 – Competition...

"Madison. Slow down, Dear! Watch out for your sister!"

"Nick! No, Child! Don't! Not Clare!"

Udonna was slowing the two teenagers down, with the help of Xander, Vida, Chip, and Clare, as they competed against each other wholeheartedly, yelling negative things at each other all the while.

"Udonna! Udonna! Udonna!" Clare called, running away from Nick who had already set her on fire three times. Luckily Madison had put it out, but unfortunately for Clare, it was with a tidal wave. Clare was drenched from head to toe by the splashes of water from Madison and her dress was crisp from the flames of the fires Nick had spell-casted.

"Oh, Clare!" Udonna said, taking Clare in her arms.

"Take this, Madison!" Nick said forcefully, throwing a ball of fire at her, hoping she'd at least get nipped in the arm.

Madison growled, ducking out of the way.

"FIRE IN THE HOLE!" Chip called, tackling Vida and Xander down for their safety. Vida quickly blew out the spreading fire with a wand of her cell phone

"Why you son of..." Madison started testily at Nick.

"Madison, watch your mouth!" Udonna ordered, cutting the blue ranger's sentence off.

Clare nodded as if she were a 'Teacher's Pet', clinging to Udonna for safety.

"Sorry, Udonna," Madison apologized sincerely to her mentor. "I'm gonna drown you in your own blood, Nick!" She chased him around the room. He shot another fireball at her, but she blocked it by spewing water at him, devouring him and the cylinder of fire.

"Madison! Nick! I want both of you to stop now! Before someone is hurt!" Udonna commanded firmly.

"No problem!" Madison exclaimed, dropping her cell phone to the ground. "You win, Nick... I surrender." She stormed out of Wood Core, crying in a furry.

Nick sighed, "Madison..." He raced after her and found her against a tree, sobbing in her own embraced arms. "Madison..." he began softly.

She just turned away and headed to another tree, disappearing inside of it.

"Madison!" he called after her even though she couldn't hear as he was holding his hand out to her as if it would bring her back to him, but he knew it would. He started to scream out in frustration, "Damn competition!"
