Kyoko ran up to her room, throwing her backpack onto the floor and falling on her bed. Her face was red, her vision blurry, and her eyes burned.
"Why did you run? Didn't you have fun last night? You beat Powerpuff Z!" the hissing voice said in her head.
"No… no… I never wanted that…"
"Then why did you? It's their fault your parents are dead! You should be mad at them!" the hissy voice started to sound urgent.
"Why… what's the point… I… don't want to be a monster… I don't…"
"Kyoko! Listen to me! You have so much power, you can rule the city! You can stop all the monsters from destroying things! So no one will go through what you have to! You can destroy Powerpuff Z for their mistake! Their so concentrated on their own popularity they don't even realize what they've done!"
Kyoko stared at the ceiling and took in a deep breath. She didn't know what to think anymore. Her head was full of black fog; she couldn't think straight anymore.
"Kyoko, I know it's confusing, but you must understand this is fate! You can rule this town! This entire country even! With my help, you can become the most powerful being this land has ever seen!"
"I… don't want to hurt them… do I?" she asked, though not talking to the voice.
"You want revenge for what they did, right? This is your chance."
At that moment, the black aura took over her mind. Her body transformed; she had become Blaze-X once more.
"Leave me alone for a bit. I need to think for myself," she growled, then flew out the window. Like that, she felt the presence of the voice slide to the back of her head. She flew over the city, watching the people below before she found herself landing in the park, watching the little kids running around. She was jealous of them as they hugged their parents, asking them for snacks or toys.
With a scowl, she shot up straight into the sky and let out a scream. The sound echoed through the whole city, making everyone cover their ears.
Within a few minutes, she was surrounded by the three members of Powerpuff Z. "Listen, Blaze-X! Stop bothering the city! We're here to stop you here and now!"
Suddenly, Blaze-X felt enraged at the girls. She didn't know why, "Why should I stop?"
"You're hurting the people!"
"Says you. You don't even know what you've done! Everything is your fault!" Blaze-X dove at Blossom, flying straight at the ground, digging her into the pavement. "My life is a mess because of the one day you didn't help!"
Blossom kicked hard, firing Blaze-X off of her and into a tree. "What's that supposed to mean?!" Buttercup shouted.
"Rah! You're so stupid!" the black aura flared around her as her eyes glowed purple. Blaze-X flew up and out of the tree, flying as fast as she could, the girls following close behind. She smiled, and made a sharp turn upwards as the girls continued flying. As they spun around, Blaze's boomerang flew at all three of them. They were all thrown to the top of a building.
"See that spot over there?!" Blaze-X shouted, pointing at a destroyed building.
"Some monsters destroyed it about a week or so ago!" Buttercup shouted, full of anger. She quickly got up and flew up at her with her fist. Blaze quickly used her boomerang to block the hit as it went straight for her head. Buttercup's and Blaze's faces were inches away from each other. Buttercup growled as she pushed her hand, trying to do something.
"My parents were killed. You could have prevented it if you had come to help. You didn't," Blaze-X growled.
Buttercup's eyes widened as she pulled her fist back. Blaze-X could practically see Buttercup twist in guilt. Quickly Blaze-X swung her boomerang at her, knocking her back into the building next to Blossom and Bubbles.
"You!" Blossom shouted, starting to fly at her before Buttercup caught her.
"Don't," she said, staring off into the distance.
"Why?!" Bubbles asked.
"Her parents were killed when that building came down. That happened the day we were taking the test."
"Oh my gosh," Bubbles and Blossom said in unison.
"See?! Everything is your fault!" the black aura flared again. Hot tears ran down Blaze-X's face, and she flew off towards the forest, leaving behind a trail of black light.
"What should we do…?" Bubbles stared off in the direction that Blaze-X had flown.
Blossom motioned the other two to follow her, "Let's go."
Blossom took off, following the little of the black light trail that was left. Bubbles and Buttercup did the same.
"Is her parent's death really our fault?" Bubbles asked, her eyes slowly becoming wet.
"It doesn't matter if it is or isn't, as long as Blaze-X thinks it's our fault, then she'll be full of hate and spite. If we can somehow apologize or help her, then we might be able to change her back to her normal form."
"And get our weapons back," Kaoru said, crossing her arms. It was obvious she missed her hammer.
Will Blaze-X learn to forgive the girls? Will they find out she is really their friend Kyoko? Will Buttercup ever get her hammer back? Find out next Saturday! (ok, this time I was TRYING to sound like a TV announcer XD)
*Also, thank you cookiequeen13 for catching my mess up!*
