When I said it changed to another scene...that never happened did it? :)
Whoops...Anyway, Craig (who happens to be Blackfire's ex) is lending
Blackfire his pod to get back to earth.
STORY:
"Blackfire...Where are we going to find half this stuff?" Robin asked looking at the spell.
"Of course. Craig, all the ingredients for the potion can only be found here."
"Then we'll buy them all before we go."
"I don't have any money."
"What do you think I'm here for?"
Craig pulled a handful of gold coins out of his pocket. Robin picked one up and looked carefully at it.
"These are tamers. There are other coins but I only keep these ones on me."
"Very interesting." Robin said passing the coin to Cyborg.
"Strange, what's this layer on top of the coin?"
"Layer?"
"It looks like dust, but most dust isn't coloured gold." Cy replied.
"Gold dust?" Blackfire asked.
"Look."
Blackfire held out her hand. Cyborg scraped the top layer off the coin. Gold dust fell into Blackfire's hand.
"Craig?"
"Yeah?"
"Is this fake money?"
"Shouldn't be." Craig replied with a confused look on his face.
Cyborg took another coin and did the same.
"They're all fake."
"Those idiots." Craig whispered.
"Craig?" Blackfire asked.
"Some kids asked me to get some fags for them. They gave me these in return. I didn't know they were fake."
"Did you know these kids?"
"They're my brothers."
"You got fags for your brothers? How old are they? Six and eight? What would your mum say?"
"I know Blackfire. She would go skits I know, but they trust me to get them fags."
"Give me the rest of your money."
Craig handed the rest of the gold coins to Blackfire. She used her nails to scrape off any dust. Only seven of the gold coins were original.
"We're going to get so much with that." Blackfire said coldly.
"How was I supposed to know it was fake?"
"Uh, could we get going now?" Robin asked timidly.
"Yeah." Blackfire answered.
She threw the fake gold back at Craig and stormed off. Taking the list of Robin, who was following close behind, she looked at the list.
"We can get most of this stuff discounted from my old workplace." She said.
"That's good." Robin replied.
"Yeah."
Blackfire's pace quickened. Robin and Cy had to run to keep up with her. She walked into a shop. Cyborg pushed the door open and walked inside, Robin followed. Inside was pretty dark. It looked like a voodoo store. There were rat's skulls floating in jars of green liquid, rows and rows of them against the wall. Robin opened a basket but wished he hadn't. A small screech emitted from the basket as Robin peered in. Inside were hundreds of the biggest, blackest beetles he had ever seen.
"I got everything." Blackfire's voice floated through the darkened air.
"You sure?" Robin asked.
"Positive. No all we have to do is get back to earth."
Blackfire walked into view carrying an assortment of different items, including on of the pickled rat's skulls.
"We need one of those?"
"That's what it says here."
"Then I guess we better be leaving. Thirty days isn't the longest period of time."
"One month? It took us half that time to get here." Blackfire said to Cy.
"True."
Blackfire led the way out of the shop. Craig was waiting outside. He pulled some of the items out of her arms and led the way to his house.
"The pod should be big enough for all of us."
"You sure?" Blackfire asked him.
"Yeah, positive."
"Come on Robin! Cy!" Blackfire shouted back at them.
"Coming." Robin replied.
"You sure we can trust them?" Cy asked him.
"We won't know until we try. Set up an auto-pilot to earth just in case, we can connect it to the pod if anything goes wrong."
"Good idea."
Cyborg began tapping things into his data file. As they reached Craig's house the auto-pilot was ready and waiting.
