Chapter 13

~The next day at the Techno base~ "All stations ready?" "Yes Lord Ram. Trudy and I need to go to the mall to prepare." Ved's voice was shaky. "Why you?" "It is my sector!" "Go along." "Ram do you have to do this?" Ebony didn't want this to go through. "Yes."

~The Mall. Cloe's room~ Ved walked into Cloe's room. She was sitting at her desk. "Ved, what are you doing here?" "Clo, Ram is going to sneak attack the mall." Cloe was stunned. "When?" "Today, at the wedding. It was Trudy's idea." "Trudy!? But she and Jessica are best friends?" "That's what I thought. Will you tell the mallrats for me?" "Sure. And Ved, please be careful." Ved gave Cloe a quick kiss. "Thanks." ~The Main Square of the Mall~ Ti-San was going to perform the wedding. "Salene, is everything ready?" "Yeah. " "Bray!" Cloe came running into the room. "What is it Cloe?" "The Technos are going to attack the mall...Today." "When?" Amber held onto Bray Jr. a little tighter. "Now!" "I'll get the girls from upstairs." Salene ran upstairs. "Who told you?" Lex was worried for Ti-San, he couldn't lose her again. "I can't tell you that." "It must be a mistake." Trudy tried to act innocent. "Shut it." "We have to get out of here!" Ti-San was panicking. "Not so fast. Jay, how nice of me to see you. And Trudy, please fill in the blanks for the awestruck mallrats. " Ram and the rest an army of his men were coming through the front entrance. Jessica, Dee, Ellie and Alice were coming down stairs. "What is he talking about?" Everyone was looking at Trudy. "I...Don't know." "Yes you do. Spill it." Ellie would have attacked Trudy but Jack held her back. "You better tell us right now..." Bray was held back by Amber. "Let her explain herself." Jessica walked over to Trudy. "Thank you Jessica. Well, I love you Jay so much. " Jay was angry. "Cut to the point." "I couldn't let you marry Jessica. So I joined the Technos." Jessica stared at Trudy. Amber looked at Ram. "Please tell us this is a big misunderstanding." "Sweet Amber, This is not even close to a misunderstanding. You and your Tribe are out to kill the Technos." Bray was furious with Ram. "No one calls my Amber sweet." Bray was ready to kill Ram but Jessica stepped in front of Bray before Jay could stop her. "Bray, calm down. What do you want Ram?" "Jessica, how nice to see you. I thought Ebony got rid of you." "Ebony?" All of the Mallrats yelled at the same time. Jay walked over to Bray and Jessica. "She's here?" Jessica's voice was filled with fear. "Right here." Ebony stepped forward. Bray almost jumped on her but Jay held him back. "How could you do this?" Jay turned to his brother. "Ved? Did you know?" "Yes." Cloe stepped forward. "Hold on. Ved warned us Jay." "Cloe!" Cloe knew she would regret what she said. "You what!" Ram turned his chair around. "Ram, he didn't want you to kill me." Jay tried to reason with a Ram. "Why would I kill you?" Jay stood proud. " Because I am a Mallrat." "Tisk, tisk." Ram shook his head. " Guard!" "Yes Lord Ram." "Please delete General Ved for me." All of the Mallrat yelled "NO!" But the laser had hit Ved already. Cloe ran to Ved and held him in her arms. " I love you Cloe." Those were Ved's last words. Cloe cried out and yelled at Ram. "You monster!" Jessica tried to walk in front of Jay, but he held her back. "What do you want, if I may ask again?" Ram wheeled over to Jessica and said right in her face: "I want you all dead!" Jay pulled Jessica to him. "You just killed my brother. Now go!" Dee came from behind with her Mozzies. "Mozzies, attack!" The Technos are scared off by the attacking Mozzies.
