A short chapter to finish it off.
Clyde had managed to wake up Sarah Jane, Rani, K-9, Maria, Mr. Jackson and Luke. He explained what had happened while they cleaned up the green slime before Rani's parents woke up.
Clyde had expected Maria to be upset that her boyfriend had been a murderous monster, but as it turned out most of Maria's memories of Kyle had been illusions set up by the Trickster and she had thought he was cute, but hadn't planned on dating him. Alan however did complain about the amount of paperwork he'd have to fill out for the American government explaining how his daughter's boyfriend had actually been an alien threat.
The rest of the holiday passed far too quickly, Maria and Alan said their good-byes, Maria giving Luke a small peck on the check and a hug before going. The Chadras meanwhile tried to work out how they'd missed a whole day, but, Rani had convinced them they'd both suddenly come down with "24-hour flu" and been asleep all day.
Meanwhile Clyde had time to think over Kyle's final words. Clyde still have massive amounts if artron energy rushing around his insides and if Clyde concentrated while snapping his fingers he could create a small blue spark, but it was so tiny it was hard to recognise.
Maybe the fight against the Trickster wasn't over and maybe it never would be. But, one thing was for sure, if the Trickster came calling again, Clyde would fight till the bitter end.
"Come on Clyde!" Rani shouted from outside, "We're going to be late."
Clyde smiled and looked outside at his best friends.
"Yeah," Luke laughed, "We're getting old out here waiting for you!"
Clyde laughed and ran downstairs.
For know he could forget the fighting, he could forget Kyle and forget the Trickster because he had Sarah Jane, Luke and Rani, right by his side. Clyde grabbed his school bag and ran outside.
THE END
I may or may not turn this into a series, but, I've got other ideas brewing and I'd like to do some different fanfiction first, I may come back and continue the Trickster's Revenge series, but, I'll see what the reaction is first. Thanks for reading.
