Intermission 2/2 + Sneak Peek at Next Chapter

Jade crept over to the door and opened it cautiously. A large flash appeared, and Jade fell to the ground. Elliot ran over to her and carried her up the stairs, without turning around. He heard a loud shriek from downstairs, and secretly wondered what it was, but went back to nursing Jadretana.

"SLOTH!" Dr_Death exclaimed. Everyone looked at each other, and changed forms (besides Allegra and Bleue). They barreled towards the doorway, Bleue and Allegra now armed with Rods of Ultranova. Everyone attacked, Faelinn being first by blasting a huge thunderbolt at Sloth. He wasn't affected, and another bright flash blinded everyone. When they could see, Faelinn and Plesio were on the ground.

"Let me try," Rash volunteered. She brandished her sword and thrust it towards Sloth.

It never hit it's target. Another bright light flashed through the room, and Rash was on the ground, with Kalora beside her. Azul, Verderato, Allegra, Bleue, Dr_Death, and Sylvester were left standing.

"My turn," Sylvester said, reaching his claws into Sloth's area. Suddenly, something paralyzed him and he fell to the ground, stunned.

"Forcefield," Verderato mumbled. He made his nails long, and cut an arm off, which grew back immediately. He threw the separated arm at Sloth and when the arm hit the forcefield another flash coursed it's way into the room. Verderato fell to the ground with a crash.

"Let's see if fire can get through the forcefield," Azul decided to experiment. It didn't work. The light flashed again, and no one but Allegra was left. Bleue gasped, and rushed to Darien's room.

********************************************************************************************

"Darien?" Bleue called out into the room. "DARIEN!" She opened the door. No one was there. There was a hole in the wall. Bleue wondered whether Sloth had taken him, or if Darien...

********************************************************************************************

"AZUL!" Allegra sobbed. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" A large vine-like whip cracked against the ground. It didn't do a thing, and the vine-whip disappeared. She wondered why there was no flash. Before she knew what she was doing, she charged at the forcefield. And there was no flash. Actually, Allegra had gone right through it. She took her Rod of Ultranova and blasted it at Sloth. He crumpled to the ground.

"Wow," Allegra mumbled. She smiled, and gave an Ultranova to each of her companions. They all woke up, and found their bottle crumpled on the ground. All of their faces were crestfallen. Elliot and a healed Jadretana walked down the stairs and saw that the bottle was crushed. They looked unhappy, but then Elliot got an idea.

"Why don't we just choose who we want to dare, etc.?" Elliot asked. Everyone stared at him, then nodded excitedly.

"It was Jade's turn, so she'll go first," Elliot said. Jade smiled evilly, and then decided who would be her pick to Truth or Dare.

"Plesio, Truth, Dare, Promise, Kiss, or Repeat," Jade grinned sinisterly.

"Um...Promise," Plesio said. Jade looked at everyone, and then her smile slowly got wider.

"Promise not to fight with Dr_Death for the next week, or you will have to face the consequences!" Jade exclaimed happily. Plesio's jaw dropped, and then he nodded unhappily.

"Kalora, Truth, Dare, Promise, Kiss, or Repeat?" Dr_Death challenged.

"Dare!" Kalora said bravely.

"Put a water balloon above the door so that when Quinto walks in, he'll get wet!" Dr_Death said eventually. Kalora smiled evilly, and magically a full water balloon appeared in front of them. Kalora attached it to the ceiling, created a lever and a gear set-up that had a pin attached to it so that if someone pulled the lever, the pin would pop the balloon and water would fly all over the place.

"Verderato, Truth, Dare, Promise, Kiss, or Repeat?" Kalora asked.

"Truth," Verderato said confidently. He immediately regretted it, because the person who had asked him was the devious Kalora the Kau, and would probably have a really good Truth up her sleeve. Kalora and Jade shared a cunning look, and nodded.

"If you could kiss any one person, who could be?" Kalora asked. A lie detector appeared on cue.

"No one," Verderato said.

BEEP! BEEP! replied the lie detector.

"Um...uh..." he mumbled something very quiet.

"WHAT?" Kalora asked.

"Um...I'm not telling!" he said unhappily.

The Ancients continued to play their newer version of Truth or Dare until the Ancients (Besides Azul, Verderato and Jade) suddenly disappeared. As if on cue, there was a loud bang on the door. Azul checked who it was, and saw Quinto and Jalena. He opened the door excitedly.

"Hi guys," Quinto said cheerfully.

"Hi dad," Azul replied in the same cheerful voice. He counted off fingers behind his back. 3...2...1...

SPLASH!

A huge amount of freezing water fell on top of Quinto and Jalena, as Azul had just barely dodged it. He laughed along with Jade, Elliot, Bleue, Darien (who had just come back), Verderato, and Allegra, who had pulled the lever.

"CHILDREN!!!!!!!!!!" Quinto screeched as all of the pets darted up the stairs.
