An:another update...
Jade sighed as she looked at the dark energy that was running over her hands,. The energy would jump up every now and again, and Jade watched it intently, she was trying to figure out just how nervous that she was. Jade picked up the sword that the specialists had gotten her for her birthday, and watched as the light blue energy blade turned black as night. She was quite aware her eyes were glowing, she could feel it. Tomorrow….it was going to happen tomorrow; she would help the Trix free Baltor. She wondered if she was making the right decision. Jade let the blade fall to the ground and closed her eyes as the dark energy formed into a dagger that was situated on her wrist. Jade stood up, her eyes still closed and began to practice.
With her eyes closed she didn't notice that Darcy, Icy, and Stormy had entered the room and watched Jade practicing quietly. It was like a dance, everything thrust, every kick, all fit in perfectly in the invincible music that was playing in Jade's head. Her movements were fluid, her extensions perfect. Her foot movement, each jump, leap and step, was graceful. If it weren't for the black energy blades on her wrists, one would never assume that Jade was practicing her blade work.
Jade finally came to a halt in front of the Trix, her eyes were still closed, but she was breathing hard. There was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead as she tried to regain her breath, there was a grim look on her face, which was finally replaced by a determined one. She froze when she finally heard the breathing of people in the room. Their breathing was slightly erratic. Jade smiled at the Trix as she finally opened her eyes, and stared at her friends, "I'm ready."
Icy looked at her sisters and nodded, "Yes Jade you are."
"Jade's never been this late before," Sky said as he sat with his friends waiting for Jade to show up. "Think she's still mad at us?""She's female Sky, I think that's highly likely. But she'll show, she needs the money," Timmy pointed out.
"I know she does but still we should do something nice for her. I mean it can't be easy for her, and we only made it worse," Sky said.
"Sky's right…so what should we get her?" Brandon said, looking at Riven. "Well what does she like I mean…" Brandon was interrupted when their pagers went off. "Never mind we have to get to Sector 12-2V. Jade will probably be there and we can get her to tell us what she likes but can't afford," Brandon said.
"We can get her a healers coupon or something, like five free healing sessions," Riven said as he got onto his bike, "She's always getting hurt and never has enough for a healer because they are expensive. It's practical and thoughtful," he said starting up his engine, and placing his communicator in his ear.
"Who said you didn't have a big heart?" Sky said with a grin looking at him, Riven rolled his eyes and drove off, the rest of the specialists following him closely.
"Sorry to interrupt you jackasses but we got a class alpha threat, it seems that the Trix are back," Jade's sharp voice came through the intercom, " I will wait till you …people arrive before launching a counter attack. But hurry up they are killing everyone in sight." With that Jade disconnected.
"Well you heard her, let's move…Timmy get the girls we might need their help," Sky said as he accelerated forward.
Jade watched the guys entering the area, she was no longer in uniform and was wearing black jeans with a dark red wifebeater. Her boots went half-way up her legs, she was another person. Jade turned to Darcy who was hiding in the shadows, "They're here," she said. Even her voice had changed, it was now lower and there was malice hidden in it.
"Excellent," Darcy said with a bow, before she began to walk away she paused and looked back at Jade and made her way towards her and gently kissed her on the lips. "Good luck," she whispered quickly giving Jade another kiss, before dematerializing.
Jade was shocked to say the least, she hadn't been expecting that, she knew that Darcy was bi at the most but she never thought that Darcy, would be interested in her in anyway. But judging by the kiss it was probably more platonic then anything else. Jade quickly returned to reality when the building across from her came crashing to the ground. Jade looked up and watched the Trix making their grand entrance as was normal for them.
"Jade get down here, and please tell me you brought your pistols, we're going to need them."
Jade looked over the edge of the building, she was at least 200 stories high. She sighed and fell off the edge, her feet quickly touched the glass planes and Jade broke out into a run. Her legs pumping as she ran down the building, she finally managed to push herself off the building and landed on the ground. The impact itself caused cracks in the pavement. Jade stood up and dusted herself off and began to walk to where the specialists were. There was a small flash and she saw Bloom and the others, and a frown settled across her features. "It's time," she whispered to herself as she allowed the dark energy to warp into a blade.
