My cat drinks loudly...
That's correct grammar isn't it? My cat drinks loudly? When I talk I'd probably say loud but...
Thinking about it, yeah, it's loudly.
On with the next CHAPTER! Because it's exciting (I think) and I can't keep you guys waiting too long!
Like...since I update it all at once this is kind of irrelevant, isn't it?
I told my friend Simp that I'd probably be done with this fanfiction today.
She was all; SHEESH...
XP I really like writing for Kuki and Wally is all.
If I had this much muse for Warriors RPG all the time I'd probably post two-thousand word posts on average all the time.

Chapter Thirteen- Wally's Sacrifice
The rest of the team had hardly anytime to notice it, that there was something wrong. Before the electricity in the room turned into a physical thing and threw them back into the main cavern. Wally's head struck the ground, the world spun and he landed pretty painfully on his tail. None of that was compared to the blow his heart had taken.
"Damn." He said, because crud just didn't fit this situation at all. "Damn."
"Kuki girl ya gotta fight it!" Numbuh Five said, holding her head and staggering to her feet. (Why hadn't anybody tried this with Lizzie? Oh, because pretty much only one person cared about her in the group. Burn...) Elder-Kuki laughed, and held up Kuki's pretty hands. Wally wanted to bite his face off, which was terribly frustrating since he couldn't do that without hurting Kuki. (BITE his face off?)
"She's MIIINE! So in tune with nature, this one. The power, it mellllds so well with this body!" Wally was going to kill him if he kept using her voice like that. Like it was some toy. Wally tasted blood and realized he'd bitten his own lip. Those electric-blue-white eyes swiveled to Wally and he hated them. He wanted Kuki's violet eyes. (Holy crap, it's like Pippa! Sorry, random, but seriously I didn't even notice this until I wrote that. Pippa had violet eyes and then they kept doing that creepy milky-white thingie...oh, right, you guys probably don't know what I'm babbling about. Have a cookie though, if you do.)
"Shut...the...hell...up." Wally said, as was mentioned before 'crud' just wasn't cutting it for our Australian hero. Those electric eyes flashed cruelly, and lightning jaggedly shot at him. He BARELY rolled away in time. It was slower than a real lightning strike, but he still felt the hairs on his tail grow hot.
"Numbuh Four, get out of the line of fire!" Numbuh One said, everyone had ducked behind a pretty big rock. Wally's green eyes narrowed, and he looked back at Kuki...his Kuki, who ELDER had, "We'll think of-" (He's territorial...)
"No..." Wally growled. Elder was pretty much laughing and blowing up a bunch of rocks. Reveling in the power. He must have hit a gold-mine with Kuki, something about her vibrant energy made his electricity stronger than it ever had been. Wally placed himself in front of the idiot and growled, "Ah'm warnin' ya, let her go."
"Or what?" Came the cool reply, "You'll beat the 'crud' out of me whelp? Ha! Not while I'm in this body...what are you doing?"
He was getting closer, and everyone was staring in surprise. Surely he wouldn't hit Kuki? Even if she WAS taken over by an evil baddy! Electricity wrapped around him, but Wally had realized something, or at least remembered something that he was pretty sure was important. The Elder wanted HIS body, because he had seven lives...
It would kind of defeat that purpose if Elder were to kill him, now wouldn't it?
Wally shoved forward, and Elder pushed harder with the electricity. But he couldn't be lethal, and if there was anything Wallabee Beetles was it was stubborn. And in love with the girl Elder had decided to take over. Which only made him MORE stubborn. Wally reached forward and grabbed for her hand. (He refused to call it Elder's...it was NOT his, he'd STOLEN it and theives have no right to what they stole...)
"Kooks..." Wally said, "Kooks, ya gotta listen ta meh. Please..."
"LET GOOO!" Elder howled, and released enough electricity to fry a pack-mule. Wally didn't FEEL this death, it was instant. One second he was holding onto Kuki's hand and the next he was spinning in the white-black. The dark-light.
"So much for that theory." Wally groaned, looking around. The cat that had been healing him leaped away with fur fluffed out in surprise. It's green eyes were wild, and it's fur stuck up in funny directions, "Who are ya?"
"Instinct..." It said, after calming down. "I can trust you, of course."
"Send meh back..." Wally ordered.
"Are you sure that's a smart thing to do? You'd fight better if I healed you more. You're heart would give out on instant contact with-" Instinct stared at him. "You WANT to do that, don't you?"
"Ah've got a plan, believe it or not." Wally said with a smirk.
Wally woke up and his heart was throbbing painfully in his chest. Elder was throwing a temper-tantrum in Kuki's body, blowing more rocks to smithereens and screaming his head off. "You idiot! Now you've only got SIX! SIIIIX!"
"Ah never was good at math..." Wally grumbled, reaching up and grabbing hold of that soft hand once more. Electricity coarsed through him, he saw stars and his heart stopped beating again.
"I am Courage." Wally hardly had to ask. The cat that was healing him now stood tall, and he looked feral in a calm way. As if you could love him, but fear him with all of your heart. He looked powerful, noble, and smart. It was strange, to be a cat (Since everytime he lost his life he woke up in the losing life place as a cat) that looked the same but was completely different. Just in the way one held themselves.
"Hello Courage." Wally meowed, "Could ya send meh back now?"
"Indeed." Courage said, even though the healing wasn't done yet.
Wally coughed, it was getting to be painful, this strain. Apparently dying several times in a row isn't good for your health. Wally closed his eyes. How much more did he have to do that? He never could do math well, did he say that before? Elder was prancing up and down screaming still. Freaking out.
"Do NOT touch me again whelp!" Elder screamed, "Five! FIVE!?"
"Oi, thanks..." Wally said, and jumped for him. This time he didn't even have to TOUCH him. Elder was so worked up that the electrical aura he had was enough to make Wally's heart palpatate. It wasn't pleasant though. Young children hardly ever had heart attacks, but that was what the electrical impulse created.
Wally gagged and fell forward, his head swam once more.
When he woke up there was one life in front of him. It was strange, because it looked gentle and kind but strong and fierce as well. It's fur was slightly tinged pink though, which kind of bothered Wally. The cat leaned forward, "I am Love."
"Oi, greeat..." Wally said, though he was surprised. While it was pink it certainly didn't look as cuddly as what he would have imagined as love. Fierce, strong, and proud. That's what he thought of. Another image flickered next to it, and Wally blanched. This one was fluffier than his other lives...wait, two lives at once?
"You gave yourself internal bleeding to your head when you struck the ground." The fluffy one said, not that WALLY knew what the hell that meant. "I am Friendship."
"Hmmm, how amusing." Love purred, "Your Elder just made a mistake and tried to jumpstart your worked for a moment, until you died again. Hopefully he stops though, you want your plan to work don't you? Cripe, he did it again..."
Wally blinked, his heart was stuttering a bit, but it stopped after that. Not completely mind you, as four cats were now leaning in to heal him. They were looking at him calmly. Love, Friendship, Stubbornness, Guilt (which kind of surprised Wally, but made sense when he thought of how badly he always felt for Shadow and the mistakes he'd made). Stubbornness looked ready to take the world on, Guilt looked sad but was smiling wryly.
"You have used us well, now you have but your final life left. If you die again..." They trailed off. Wally would have to trust that Elder had caught himself enough not to use his electricity. And that the cat didn't know how many lives he lost.
This time when he woke up he was being held by Numbuh Five. His head swam sickeningly, blood was pouring from his head. Still, he got up. He'd just met all the parts of his personality. As girly and cruddy as it sounded, he kind of thought Love was the coolest. Next to Courage.
"Numbuh Four, no! You'll be killed!" Numbuh Five said, Wally only gave her a quick thumbs-up before crawling out into the open. Elder was throwing a HUGE tantrum, and Wally had to fight through the electricity.
Stay aloive...long enough... Wally thought wincing in pain, he came up to Elder once more and the evil being stopped for a moment. The electricity died, it was trying to look through him. Wally grabbed at Kuki's hand, and put his other hand on her cheek.
"Kooks, snap outta it! Ya can foight it, Ah know ya can!" Wally growled, electricity sparked under his hand but he held hers tighter. No, he wouldn't let her go. Even if he was dead he'd keep moving long enough to get Kuki out of the clutches of that CREEP. Elder was afraid to use electricity, he didn't know if Wally was useless to him, or still had four good lives that he could use.
Still, he saw what he wanted to, what gave him the courage and stubbornness to keep fighting through this. Her eyes flashed violet. Wally could have cheered, if they hadn't swam back to that sickly blue-white color once more.
"Come ON Kooks, foight it! Ya gotta! Remember...remember when ya had meh sing that...duet with ya? An'-and that toime ya dressed meh up as your doll cause Ah accidentally ripped it..and ya had ta rescue meh from that crazy cat lady? Remember...wh-when we went ta the North Pole an' Ah forgot a present an' gave ya mah froies? O-or..." Wally breathed in deep, "Loike...how...weh went to the pier an' ya got meh that shark tooth? Ah didn't loike it for the shark tooth really...Ah...loiked it cause ya gave it to meh..."
"NOOO!" Elder screamed, Kuki's eyes were rapidly changing colors. From violet to white, so sickeningly that it made Wally's head spin a little bit. "Nooo, he hates you remember!?"
"No! No Ah don't!" Wally said, "Kooks Ah don' hate ya, Ah couldn't hate ya...please...Ah...n-never told ya cause...Ah, well Ah guess Ah was a-afraid...yeah...afraid...tha'...ya...wouldn't loike meh if Ah did. Ah...can't hate ya Kooks cause...cause...Ah...love ya."
Her eyes swam to purple, and Wally trembled, please stay that way, please, "Ah love ya Kooks, an' Ah need ya, that's whoy ya gotta foight..."
Electricity exploded somewhere then. For a moment he thought he had failed, for a moment he was sure that she would be dead, but then it came out of her body and exploded in a blinding flash of blue and white. Electricity fizzed around them, and Kuki collapsed into his arms.
Was that anti-climatic?
I hope not, I actually got a bit choked up myself. XP
But I'm a pretty emotional writer, I get into my things.
One more chapter to go! See you then!
