Spells and Louds
Chapter 435: Finding a gift and some reports.
(Royal Woods Mall.)
Lincoln, Linka, Jordan and they're Pokemon wander around the place as school is done for the day, they look around for anything they can find that could be useful for what comes tomorrow.
"Okay, so we haven't found anything good in here, yet" replied Linka. She does look at the music store. "You guys think there's something we can find in there?"
"Not really, Luna already has so many things when it comes to music, and having her just have the thought of more music in her life as a gift could be a bit too much for her" replied Jordan. "Recall what happened when Frida asked her about her rock and roll dream?"
"Yeah, that one. Well, this is gonna be tough" replied Linka. "We did our rehearsals and we haven't found anything we can give to Luna for her birthday tomorrow. What the heck do we do now?"
"We have to find something here, she's done so much to keep us together and for helping us get through hard times" replied Jordan. "From the DISK wars imprisonment all the way to those Part-Time Heroes."
"What do you think bro?" asked Linka. But she gets no response and they look towards the white-haired boy whose thinking of something. "Lincoln? You okay?"
They can see some concern in his looks, almost like he's worried about something. "Linc, we know it's hard for you to do this, but don't push yourself too hard. We can find something and if not, then Luna will understand and just be okay just as long as we're all there" replied Jordan as she holds his hand.
Lincoln feels this and looks to her and smiles. "Thanks, but I was thinking that if we can't find the gift for Luna here, then how about we search elsewhere?"
This confuses the two girls. "Okay, so where the heck do we go?"
Lincoln smiles. "I had this plan since last night, while Luna was asleep. We're going to the one place where we usually find as peaceful and full of equality."
This hits Linka and Jordan and they know what he means. "Aiur?" asked Jordan. "Are you sure what we're looking for is on the Protoss Homeworld?"
"I'm sure" replied Lincoln. "In fact, I think I know what we can do when we don't find what we're looking for. Because sometimes the best gift is something made by the hands of those who wanna prove how much that person they're giving to means so much."
Linka and Jordan smile from this. "Something tells me, that we're gonna get our hands into so much hard work" said Linka. "Let's do this!"
"Next stop, Protoss Homeworld!" said Lincoln. Along with their Pokemon, they make their way out of the mall, but the main door is a long way from them. They do spot they're pals and gals, Rusty, Polly, Zach, Chloe, Clyde, Emma and Stella, but with them are two girls. "Hey guys, and who're there girls?"
"Guys, I think Linc knows who she is" said Zach, and he is right.
Lincoln realizes. "Oh, hi there Renee. Been last year since we last met, at the comic book store."
Renee chuckles. "Yeah, still feel kinda bad for fighting you over that comic. Nice to see you again Lincoln and now the commander of the Royal Defenders too, that is so awesome! Like Ace Savvy being a hero!"
Lincoln chuckles. "Yeah, but I'm no Ace fan anymore. I'm more into the whole better and superior of heroes comics or what I call them Marvel and DC. Also, this is Jordan and Linka."
"I know who they are dude" replied Renee. She then shakes the hands of the two girls. "Hi there, the names Renee and if you guys heard from before I was the one who may have had a scuffle with Lincoln over a comic book last year."
"Yeah, we know and even though I'd like the fight you for doing that to my man, I don't wanna" replied Jordan. "I know that you didn't mean it, and that it was back when Linc was a fan of Ace and I know it was all Zach's idea to get Lincoln to talk to you."
"Yeah, and don't worry, I already spoke to Zach and warned him not to do this thing again" replied Renee. They all look to Zach, the boy chuckles nervously and so does Rusty and Clyde, they did have a part to play in the "Back out there" incident, alongside Liam of course.
Linka then looks to the girl with the orange hair. "So, who's this?"
"Hi, my names Paige and I was in school with you guys since last year. I wasn't really noticed much and also I just got into the gamers club today, sorry Allison and Laurence forgot to inform you guys."
Lincoln then realizes. "I could only guess you're one girl who knows how to do gaming and love nothing more than getting a high score or showing some gaming respect."
"Wow! Nice guess man, how did you know that?" asked Paige.
"Saw you two days ago at Gus'. You were trying to beat my high score on Dance, Dance Revolution and then when you couldn't beat it, you showed some respect to the one with the top gun score" replied Lincoln.
This shocks Paige. "Wow! That was you're top score?! No way! I was trying to beat the top score from Lincoln A. Spellman?! That is so cool! Also, I truly respect how good you were in the arcade and all of the high scores you've had."
"How did you know all the top scores there were his?" asked Jordan.
"All of the high scores had one of the same name, L.I.N.C" replied Paige. "All of those scores I have been respecting and also trying to beat, also I think I know you're little brother Timmy. We met at times at the arcade and sometimes compete against each other with his other friends."
"Well, that's nice of you to do" replied Linka. "So, I guess we got two new friends in the group. Glad to have you girls."
"Thanks!" replied Renee and Paige. "So, you guys wanna hang out with us?" asked Renee. "There's this new comic called Batman who laughs, I think it's a twisted version of Batman getting involved with whatever Joker did to him and it sounds so messed up!"
"Maybe next time, we gotta head off and do something else" replied Lincoln.
"Does it have something to do with Luna's birthday tomorrow?" asked Clyde.
Linka chuckles. "Too easy for you guys to guess, but yeah it is. We're headed to another world to get something, or make something nice for her. She deserves so much for doing so many things to keep us together and safe."
"And to the fact, she's the one who started all of this" replied Jordan. "She's the one who became the first ever Royal Defender, then came Lincoln and she's the one who brought us together with the power of her own brand of music and also the most strongest and powerful amongst all of us on the team and possibly through the whole Immortal Council."
"We can hang out next time, and maybe we can compete at some online gaming" replied Lincoln.
Renee chuckles and has a competitive face. "Oh, it is so one Lincoln. Better bring you're game face when we compete!"
"I always do!" replied Lincoln. They all say their goodbyes and head off to different directions.
Then Lincoln, Linka and Jordan get a report from their phones and see what was going on.
"Bank robbery foiled in Hazeltucky and all was made possible by Royal Defender Luna Frost. She single handedly dealt with the issue as she took down five of the armed men and their leading lady boss. She may not be from the town she stopped the robbery, but she is truly a heroine not to be messed with when it comes to bringing in justice – Hazeltucky news."
The three kids smile at this. "Well, things surely are looking good for all of us today, we should get going now" replied Linka. With their Pokemon, they hop onto the Vulture Bike and Dominic and make their way not to Spellman Estate, but to the nearest Protoss Gate way.
Ever since the arrival of the new race, the Protoss onto the town of Royal Woods, they have established three bases outside the town and through this base they have Stargate's and Gateways, which all lead back to their homeworld of Aiur and other Protoss controlled planets within the Koprulu Sector. Thankfully, they do not have access to Tal'Darim bases, they're not ready yet.
As the three of the kids with their Pokemon make their way to the nearest protoss base, Jordan asks. "When we get to Aiur, where the heck do we go for the big thing we're gonna make?"
"We head to the one Protoss who is capable of making incredible things and has been known to be a front line commander with his knowledge on the Purifiers and the Calai engineering. Phasesmith Karax!" replied Lincoln, he then revs it up and they all pick up speed and advance faster.
"We're going to have an awesome and hardworking time when we get there" said Linka. "We should also tell the rest of the family that we're going someplace and that we'll be fine."
"I wonder how the others are doing" said Jordan. "After our encounter with Milo Murphy."
(Ever After High.)
Gyro had just finished going down through some notes for the next class tomorrow, and no he did not have any classes for the day. Let's recap. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday is when he has Defense against the Dark Arts classes with the students of the school and to the four students from Hexside.
Then someone comes into his classroom. "Hey man, school is done for the day and I am headed home now, what the heck are you still doing here?" asked Neil.
"Going through some last minute work for tomorrow and some new lessons which could lead to an incoming test next week on Friday and also someone else is in this room as well" replied Gyro.
Neil then sees who it is. "Hollow?!" The sith lord himself is there, sitting by the balcony with a pizza roll and a sofa.
"What's up Swarm Lord and yes I was here because I am bored as fuck" said Hollow as he eats his food.
Neil is confused by this. "Okay, so what the heck does he have to do with being here? Besides the fact he's bored."
Gyro then puts his books into his desk. "We were going through some discussion about what happened yesterday. After our run in with the boy Milo Murphy, things have been smooth sailing from then on. No disastrous or critical issues, with the device that Martin gave him, the boy is doing his best to make sure Murphy's Law has a break sometimes after some much needed physics meddling."
"From the fact we have dealt with this, I have found out through my sense that Murphy's Law is not a threat. It's simply a chain of unexpected events that are as normal as an unfortunate event of the everyday laws of physics" replied Hollow. "But, unless concentrated, then it can be weaponized. But we don't intend to do such a thing."
"This is Milo's personal issue and we intend to leave him be and handle it on his own" replied Gyro.
Neil sits onto the balcony as well. "That's nice to know, and what of the aftermath of what happened with our interdimensional telecommunications from those Pistachions?"
"That one was more likely a threat that is bound to happen, soon" replied Hollow. "We were able to get our systems back online and this time we're using Tal'Darim tech on the moon to act as our new focal point of interdimensional communications, whenever my imperial communications have been knocked out in Danville. So, we have a backup plan and base, set and ready."
Gyro then sits next to them. "Also if I recall that Hollow has something else to tell us."
Hollow sighs. "There is a new threat in Magix." This shocks Neil and Gyro. "What?!"
"This new threat, it's magic in nature, but the thing is it's wild magic and whoever this being is seeks to find the magic from the very first fairy animal from Magix and use it for its own dark deeds" replied Hollow. "Headmistress Faragonda is looking for answers of her own, trying to see who this new evil is and what her motive to doing this is."
Neil looks to Gyro. "You know anything about this guardian?"
Gyro thinks. "I don't think so, I will have to look into this soon with my superiors of the eternal faiths. In the meantime, Hollow I want you to continue aiding the Winx fairies into taking this evil down, go with them to find the first fairy animal and I can only assume that they'll be using a form of magic to send them back to the past to search for this long lost first fairy animal."
"Indeed" replied Hollow. "And the Winx have unlocked a new form of fairy magic and are putting it to some good use and we may have found a fairy animal, but it's not the first. The only drawback, it cries so much tears and is now a fond animal companion to Aisha."
"Well, that's good to know, but what worries me is what happens if this new form of evil finds out about the Pokemon world and all other worlds with magical related animals?" asked Neil.
"That is not a problem" replied Hollow. "The Great Gate in Magix has been moved to our new orbital station above the world, it's all Imperial based and truly a powerful defense. Whoever this being is, won't be able to get her hands on the other realms, but should she get through then we should all prepare for battle."
"Not gonna lie, but that does sound like an awesome plan" replied Gyro. "Also, Hexside is putting up this annual game they have called, Grudgeby."
Hollow and Neil look to the Guardian. "Grudge what?!"
"It's like a rugby game, but with a tad mix of Harry Potter stuff into it" replied Gyro. "They can use magic and try to score the goal with the ball, the only problem is that they have to keep safety and a close eye on the whole playing field. The arena is rigged with traps that could rip a normal witch in half, so they have to be careful or they'll never see the end of the school year."
Neil and Hollow are horrified by this. "What the fuck is this shit? Why does it exist? And who are they facing?" asked Neil.
"Oh! I am so going to wanna watch that whole thing!" said Hollow. "And chances Alastor will wanna watch it too."
"I'll tell you guys more soon, but right now I need to know if Eevryone is locked, stocked and loaded for the incoming day that comes tomorrow" said Gyro.
"Right, Luna's birthday" replied Neil. "We have the venue ready and we're all ready for what might happen on that day. She's gonna become 17 and soon next year will be her last school year in the Royal Woods High School, she deserves so much after going through hell for the whole year of this life."
"She's fought, sacrificed, cried and felt so much pain from everything" replied Hollow. "But, she has gotten stronger and has made good strides in doing what she does best, and that is to keep everyone she loves safe from harm."
"Mostly to her brother, Lincoln. They've been through so much and the bond that binds them has gotten stronger over the months of this new life" replied Gyro. "Who knows what could happen next, heck I don't even know what could happen next."
Neil sighs and gets up. "Only time will tell. Come on, we should get going now." They too follow him, but then they hear glass break and see the glass stand has been shattered by someone playing ball!
They then hear the sound of Daring from outside. "Hey! Can someone throw the ball back?" What they don't know, the glass they broke belongs to the dreaded hat that Gyro got from Hexside.
"This is bad" said Hollow. They then hear students screaming and running away.
Gyro looks outside. "Oh no! The Choosey hat has broken free once again!"
Neil sighs. "Fucking shit with this! Let's go get it." They all jump off the balcony and begin to take down that vile hat that eats other. Seriously Gyro, get rid of it and why does he even keep it?!
But as they left the Guardian's classroom, Diogee barks at them from the balcony, which everyone notices. "What the? Diogee, go home" replied Gyro. The dog complies and heads off.
Then they realize. "Wait, how the heck did he come here?" asked Hollow.
(Spear of Adune, Solar Core Matrix Room.)
Lincoln, Linka, Jordan and they're Pokemon enter the large room and they see many Protoss at work with the Solar Core of the ship, and they see the Phasesmith they were looking for, Karax of the Calai.
"Karax, we're here now" said Lincoln.
Karax looks to them. "Commanders and Major, good to see you." He then has five probes bring forth a hover table with some metal samples. "We have what you need right here, all you need to do now is choose which one and then we can begin processing this into whatever you wish to make of it."
They look to the ten metals and think. "This is gonna be tough, they do contain source traits right?" asked Jordan.
"Yes they do" replied Karax. "Each of these metal samples have been harvested from across the Koprulu sector and are not seen through any other realm. They can be able to enhance things around them and act as defensive purposes or supportive tactics. We can begin to make something of them when we begin smelting them down and reshaping them into what they are needed to be."
Lincoln then picks one, he looks to Jordan and Linka who nod at this choice. They look to this metal and see how light and yet strong it felt. "We pick this one Karax."
"A wise choice, this metal can provide a powerful barrier and special psionic energies to detect things around them and also help feel the presence of those who are in distress" replied Karax. "We mostly smelt this to create modifications to our Khala technology for our forces to communicate to our distant star fighters. Let me begin to process this into what you three need."
"No" replied Lincoln. "We wanna smelt it and reshape it ourselves."
This shocks the Templar Phasesmith. "Are you sure? This is advanced tech and requires a careful hand to process."
"We're sure" replied Linka. "We wanna do this to show how much Luna means to us, we wanna show her that this was made by the hands of those who wanna make her feel special for tomorrow."
Karax understands. "I see, from what the Hierarch told me that tomorrow is the celebration to the day of birth of your sister and first Royal Defender. I will let you three do this, but first I must teach you three on how to properly work on smelting this metal with the aid of the Solar Matrix Core."
"Thank you Karax, the teaching is much appreciated" replied Jordan.
They then head to where they need to process the smelting and reshaping, which is somewhere in the ship's Robotics Bay.
Lincoln then looks to the picture of Luna on his cellphones lock screen and she smiles. 'We're gonna make this gift the best you ever had, from the three of us. To show how much you mean to us after all you have done, but mostly how much you mean to me.'
To be continued….
