"Storm listen to me! Don't do it! Please! Don't do it!" Frost pleaded, "Storm!" Tech said standing in front of her. "Storm it's a trap! Please, listen to Frost!" Tech said, "For goodness sake girl! Get a grip!" Thorn yelled. "Storm Please! It's hard enough trying to keep you alive! Don't do it!" Frost cried.
"Frost I'll take it from here." Came a female voice, "Sammy?" Frost asked, "That's my name." Came the voice and a wolf anthro appeared. She was the exact opposite of Frost. She was pure black, except for the tips of her ears and tail, her normal eye colour was emerald green, but her other eye was sapphire blue with a star shaped pupil.
"Sammy?" Frost asked again, the wolf smiled, "Yes Frost. It's me." "It is you!" Frost said and smile spread across her face, "Sammy, this is Tech e. Coyote and Thorn Jackal. Of course you remember Saphira… and this is Storm. You know who she is." Frost said. "Of course. Saphira, it's good to see you again. Storm, it's been so long, you've changed a lot. You probably don't remember me." Sammy smiled.
Just then the memory came flooding back to Storm. "You're my guardian. You… you saved me… when I was almost killed by the meteor." Storm stuttered. Sammy raised one eyebrow, "So you do remember." Sammy said surprised. "Sorry to interrupt your reunion, but if you want Jasper alive, then Storm, you'd better come here." Sharze's tone was taunting again.
Storm growled and grabbed her sword from its spot on the wall. "Storm don't do it! Your crazy!" Sammy pleaded, "Too late." Storm replied walking to the door. "What a smart girl you are… you seem to be quite brave to… lets see how skilled you are at fighting." Sharze smirked as she walked out of her room.
Storms' eyes glowed amber as she aimed a kick at his stomach right before her foot was about to hit him. He disappeared. "What? Damn." Storm couldn't catch herself before she hit the ground. She went tumbling across the floor and hit the wall right beside Revs' room. What came next woke everyone.
Sharze threw Storm through a window and let out the loudest, most evil laugh that anyone has ever heard. Sammy saw that and acted on instinct. She disappeared and reappeared at the bottom of the tower. She caught Storm, but the force was too strong. It knocked Sammy backwards. Sammy landed wrong and Storm smacked her head off the hard pavement.
She was knocked out cold and losing blood. Fast. Sammy looked up to see Sharze standing over her grinning evilly. He stepped forward. Sammy kicked him square in the face. Sharze shrieked in pain as Sammy kicked his side and he was sent flying into a wall.
Meanwhile…"Tech? Thorn? Saphira? What's going on? Where's Storm? Who's she? What's going on?" Ace asked as he ran to them. The rest of the team was close behind their leader. "You know when Storm got kidnapped? Well, the guy who did it came here and threw Storm out that window. This is Frost, she is the one in Shadow Woods saved us and made our jetpacks work again." Tech said.
"Her sister, Sammy, went to go save Storm, as she is Storms' guardian…" Saphira continued, "But Sammy was knocked over by the speed of Storms' fall." Thorn finished. "Ok then… Lets jet!" Ace yelled and flew out the shattered window. The others followed his lead.
When they got to solid ground, Sharze was on his knees in pain. Sammy gave one blow with her flame throwing powers and Sharze was out cold. Sammy turned around and saw the others staring at her wide-eyed. (Everyone except Frost and Saphira was.)
"Um… hi." Sammy said then immediately turned her attention to Storm who was still unconscious and bleeding. "Saphira can you?" Sammy asked, "I think so… she lost a lot of blood though… I'll do my best." Saphira walked over to Storm. She took a deep breath then touched Storms' head where it was the most severe wound was.
Saphira concentrated really hard, at first nothing happened. But then, slowly, the blood came back to Storm and her wounds were healed. Tech stepped forward. "Is she alright?" "She might be. It depends. She needs to stay in bed for a while though. Would you mind taking Storm to her room Tech?" Saphira replied.
"Umm… sure." He said picking Storm up. He carefully adjusted her to a comfortable position in his strong arms. He walked slowly inside and took the elevator to the floor that Storm's room was on. He slowly walked down the hall to her room and went inside. He carefully placed her down on her bed.
Then Tech sat beside the motionless girl. Storm's head moved a little to the side. Tech cocked his head a little bit to the right. He looked at Storm cautiously as she rolled close to the edge of her bed. Tech moved her back to the center of her bed.
He stroked her silky dark brown hair trying to coax her in to waking up. Storm's eyes flickered open, she stared up at Tech, her eyes full of wonder and regret. "Tech… I… I'm really sorry. I should have listened to you. I'm sorry." Storm hung her head in shame.
"Storm." Tech's voice was firm yet gentle. "You did what you thought was best. Ok! So that got you thrown out a window! But hey! We all make stupid mistakes!" Without even thinking about it, Tech leaned in and pressed his lips to hers. When he pulled away Storm's expression was blank.
'Oh shit. Here it comes.' Tech thought. But he was wrong. Instead of getting mad, Storm smiled at him. "Tech. I love you." She whispered in his ear. "I love you too." He whispered back.
"Now. You get some rest." He instructed. Storm giggled as Tech tucked her in like a child. "I'll see you in the morning." He said. He paused at the door and looked behind him at Storm. She was fast asleep all ready.
Tech silently closed the door behind him and went back to the others who were waiting outside. But they weren't waiting, they were fighting. Fighting… Sharze. He was awake, and stronger than ever. Sammy just barely dodged one of his blasts. Lexi however, wasn't quite quick enough. She was pushed out of the way by Ace.
He was hit and was sent flying into Tech. "ow!" Tech cried as his leader and himself went crashing into a brick wall. Ace was mad. Really mad. He helped Tech to his feet and the two ran back into the fight. Ace got out his Guardian Strike Sword and attacked Sharze head on. But the rest of the Darkners appeared. There were hundreds.
After a few minutes of battling Ace got kicked in the chest by Sharze, knocking the wind out of the rabbit's lungs. While Ace caught his breath, Sammy and Frost had come up with a plan. A plan that would stop Sharze for good. Frost ran over to Jasper and Tech who were back to back. She whispered it to the scientist.
"Frost! That's brilliant!" Tech exclaimed. Frost and Sammy's idea was to get rid of all the Darkners first. Then without his protection, Sharze would be vulnerable. But only for a few seconds. That's when Sammy and Frost would use their powers together.
Lexi heard the plan and told Ace. He nodded to Sammy who gave Frost the thumbs up sign. "Loonatics! Unite!" Ace yelled. The team all used their powers together to defeat the Darkners. After they were dealt with, Sammy and Frost turned their attention to Sharze. "NOW!" Ace yelled.
The sisters activated their powers. Sammy's Firepower's fried Sharze and then he was frozen by Frost's Ice powers. The cops came to take him away, but Saphira had a better idea. "We should send him to some deserted, remote place." She suggested, "Alright Saphira. We can do that." Ace said.
He told the officers where to take him. The officers nodded and left with the currently frozen villain. Ace sighed and said, "Well team. Were done here." Ace went inside and the others followed their leader back inside.
Tech went straight to Storm's room to check on her. She had woken up and was staring up at the blue ceiling above her head. She looked at Tech as he sat beside her. "Tech?" Storm asked attempting to sit up, but she was pushed back down by Tech's strong grip. "Yes?" he replied, "Umm… can you… stay here until I fall asleep?" Storm had a nervous and kinda awkward note in her voice.
But the black and green coyote just smiled and nodded. "I'll be back." He said running out the door. When he returned, he was in his p.j.'s, "Why are you in your pajamas?" Storm asked. "Hey! Once you fall asleep I'm going to bed." He replied chuckling.
Storm giggled too. Tech looked deep into Storm's ice-blue eyes and she stared right back deep into his olive-green eyes. "Storm. I love you." He said softly. Storm could feel her heart start to accelerate. When Tech stroked her cheek, her heart stopped.
"Tech. I… I love you too." She smiled. Tech laid down beside her and whispered in her ear. "I've always loved you. Right from the start." Storm rolled over to look at him. "Really?" She asked. Tech grinned sheepishly. Then Storm said, "Me too." Tech leaned in and Storm's heart practically burst out of her chest when his lips met hers.
When they separated Tech slid under the covers with her. He wrapped his arms around her. Storm rested her head against Tech's strong, firm chest. He closed his eyes. And the two coyote's drifted off to sleep in each other's arms.
In the morning, Tech opened his eyes to the sunlight pouring in through the window. He looked down at Storm, who was still fast asleep in his arms. He smiled to himself as he remembered the events of last night. Then Storm started to stir, her ice-blue eyes flickered open and was happy that Tech had stayed with her as promised.
"Storm? I'll get you some breakfast. You shouldn't get out of bed yet." Tech said slipping out from under the blankets and walking to the door. When he left, Storm reached for the book on her bedside table and began to read.
"Tech your up late." Lexi observed as the scientist walked into the kitchen in his pajamas. "I was really tired and I guess I slept in." Tech faked yawned and went to the cupboard. He grabbed some Frosted Flakes and two bowls.
"What's the second one for?" Thorn asked. "I'm getting Storm something to eat. She shouldn't get out of bed yet." Tech explained putting the cereal into the bowls.
The cereal was followed by milk, then a spoon was put in each bowl. Tech grabbed them and walked out of the kitchen and back to Storm's room. He opened the door with his side. (the door are sliding doors.) Storm looked up from her book. She put the bookmark in place and then set the book back down.
Tech handed her a bowl and she took it gratefully. Tech sat down beside her, he took a spoonful of his cereal and ate it. Storm giggled as some of it ended up on his shirt.
As the Tech and Storm enjoyed their breakfast they thought they were safe. They were, at least for now.
But little did they know that somewhere in a remote jungle, something was thawing out. This thing was indeed Sharze.
He was ready to take revenge. He was ready to kill.
The End
