Chapter 14- The Mirror

Berserk's P.O.V.

Now to fulfill my mission…..

But I have to be quick, 'cause I think Brickhead over here is getting suspicious.

After visiting 'my' house I tell him I have to go to the school to get some homework.

"Do you want me to come with?" He asks.

"No!" I shout in alarm, "I mean, no….I'll be fine." I say sweetly, smiling the best good way I know how.

He gets this confused look in his eyes but shrugs it off.

"Alright…" He replies. Now that I got the ok to go I hurry outside.

"Lets see….." I think aloud as I look over the town from an aerial view.

Then I see it, the perfect spot.

Right on top of the Town Hall, also home to the Mayor.

I force myself forward and land quietly on top of the roof.

I take out the 'present' and place it on the rooftop and set the timer.

Perfect, by the time I'm out of here they'll only have ten minutes to live…

Now…the Mirror…I need to get to that, that way I can get to Cityville.

I try thinking of its whereabout, and then I remember. The museum….

I hurry flying high above Townsville, honestly can they think of a more creative name? I mean really…

Well Cityville isn't that creative….but it is still…..

Soon I am at the steps to the museum, but it has changed. Before the museum was all cracked and graffiti covered. It was like a wrecking ball took at it.

But this was just horrible! Demeaning even….

Not a crack in the stone, or the sidewalk. The grass was freshly cut and the perfect shade of green, in large letters was the sign…

'Townsville Mirror Museum.'

Who would want to look at a bunch of mirrors anyway? Not me.

Reluctantly I step up the steps, reassuring myself that I will be home soon.

Once inside a lady wearing a uniform comes up to me.

"Oh!" She exclaims. "Would you like a tour young lady?" She offers.

How polite! Young lady? What was that all about? I was debating whether or not to smack her or chew her out for calling me something as vile as a young lady, but decided against it, because after all…I am supposed to be Blossom Untonium.

"Err….No thanks lady…." I say.

She gives me a quizzical look. "I was just browsing, you know these Mirrors are just so…fascinating…." I add.

Her face lights up and I know I said the right thing, "Very well, but if you get lost just holler." She warns.

Holler? What happened to yell?

I quickly look around, everything is so different, the tile is perfectly in tact and shiny, the mirrors aren't even cracked or broken, just clean and preserved.

I try my best to navigate through the walls of mirrors, but it is confusing, everything looks back at me, and its me, giving a confused look.

How pathetic of me…..

I sigh and continue through the many mirrors. If I keep this up, I'll never get out of here before this place blows.

Blossom's P.O.V.

Come on think….I urge myself, but I can't think of anything, if I make a break for it now, Berserk will be stuck in Townsville with me, wreaking havoc….

But if she gets through first, then he smashes the mirror so I can't return….

This was utterly confusing. I study Brick, who is watching me like a hawk, his hand clamped over either side of the mirror, ready to smash at any time.

I bit my lip in deep thought, and then I remember.

Before she actually hit the portal, I could see her through it. But Brick can't he is holding it above his head.

He won't be able to see her, but I will.

That's my chance, if I can somehow grab her through the mirror and force her through, while at the same time getting back to my own world and smashing the mirror once and for all, then we'd be safe and in our own worlds.

But he also said she was doing something in Townsville, and she would only return when she was done.

What if she was destroying everyone and everything in Townsville, would the Rowdyruffs and my sisters be able to hold her off?

Would it be possible that when she does return, everything will be gone, destroy with no hope to repair it?

I try not to think about the consequences and focus on the mirror, right now I can only see the reflection of the Townsville museum, and as Brick moves it slightly the vision changes.

She isn't there now, but I have a feeling she will be here any minute, but hopefully I'm not too late….

It wasn't long before I see the figure of Berserk running towards the mirror, smirking triumphantly.

This is, I run towards the mirror, jumping on bad Brick as I reach my hands through the mirror.

Berserk sees this and tries to stop herself, but she was moving to fast and she collides into my hands.

I latch onto her, making sure she can't move, but she is strong, she struggles, trying to pry my hands off her, and furthermore, Brick isn't much held, he keeps moving around in attempt to shake me off.

With a grunt she begins sliding through my world and into hers. The arm I have a hold of comes out first, and then her face, which is shouting vile things at me.

"Let me go Puff!" She commands.

"Never!" I growl, but she is almost out now, and I can tell Brick is getting ready to smash the mirror, I have to move.

I climb on top of her, and force myself through the mirror, she loses her grip on the floor and tumbles into her own world, but luckily so am I.

I collide into the shiny polished floor of the museum and a smash sounds, shards of glass of all shapes and sizes crash around me, I cover my body as best I can from the glass.

But when I look back, I realize Brick had foolishly decided to smash the mirror once both of us were out, forever canceling the tie between our two worlds.

The alarm sounds in the Museum, signaling some criminal activity, if they catch m they will think I was the culprit, I really don't like destroying Townsville property on purpose, but I have no other option.

I soar up, crashing through the ceiling as rubble and plaster falls to the floor of the museum.

But I am out, in Townsville, were we are not polluted, and not crazy drunks, and definitely not wearing this much revealing clothes.

I hurry home, washing myself off and redressing in my regular clothes and heading back outside.

Brick said something about a surprise for Townsville, but as far as I can see nothing is out of place.

Nothing is destroyed; no one is in some sort of life threatening danger.

Then what is wrong….

I purse my lips in confusion.

I soar high over Townsville surveying for anything odd or mishappen.

"Nothing…." I breathe, but something doesn't feel right, something is definitely wrong.

Then I spot it, a bright box has been placed over Townsville, and even from afar I know it is powerful.

Probably enough nuclear power in that thing to blow up half the world… Not just Townsville, they weren't just targeting Townsville, they were targeting the world…
