Chapter 6
Weighted with chains around her wrists and feet, Apollonia made her
way out of the door. The evil man she wanted to kill was behind her, urging
her on with a gun.
"You will not win," she said defiantly, "She will never come with
you, her new family will protect her!"
"We will see about that."
Apollonia closed her eyes and sent a mental S.O.S to Crystal. She
hoped her daughter could hear her mental cries. Although she knew it may
very well be impossible.
Crystal awoke with a start. She began to think and suddenly she
realized.
"Mom..." She jumped out of Rose's bed and ran to the window. A distance
away she saw that evil man and her mom.
Without thinking she raced outside and ran close to them. "Mommy!"
Crystal cried.
Her mom's eyes widened. "Honey go back! You can't let him get you!"
Crystal noticed the man walking towards her, menacingly.
Crystal, terrified started to run away, but he grabbed her by her
long silver hair. Crystal screeched.
She started to cry. He kicked her hard. She screamed again. Apollonia
watched, terrified as he held up his hand to hit her.
Not her daughter! Please don't let him hurt my daughter! Her mind
cried.
"Let her go!"
All glanced up and saw five figures, all of which were covered with
darkness as the sun shone from behind them. They stood on top of a
building, but Crystal remembered those figures. She smiled. Suddenly one by
one, they jumped down and landed. Rose, Trakko, Dot, Wakko and Yakko.
Both Apollonia and Mac looked very surprised.
"What the.. your exactly like..."
"Duh!" Trakko said. "Now give them both up to us now or we will have
to get ugly!"
Mac seemed to recover from the surprise. He reached behind his back
and pulled out a laser gun.
Apollonia's eyes widened. She looked at the others. "Run while you
still can!! He is going to poison you!"
"What?" they almost all said at the same time. He started to shoot
them wildly. Each dodged to the best of their ability and tried to attack
him as well. Rose got close enough to bite his arm. He cried out and
dropped the gun. Trakko quickly grabbed it and Mac threw Rose off him and
she hit the ground hard.
"Rose!" Crystal, now free ran to Rose's aid.
The others were busy dealing with Mac who now pulled out a sword,
covered in a strange glowing chemical. He thrashed it about him, hoping to
get at least one of them.
He did.
"Ahhh!" Yakko cried, hitting the ground, a gash down his right side.
Instantly every eye was on Yakko. Rose was sitting down looking over at
them terrified.
"No!" Apollonia cried.
"Yakko!" his sibs came running to him. Trakko guarded them, holding a
piece of wood.
But Mac wasn't interested in them. He walked over towards Crystal and
Rose. Rose put Crystal behind her and glared up hatefully at Mac. Trakko
saw and ran to stop Mac, but was too late. He hit Rose hard with a strange
object he held and grabbed Crystal. She cried out and tried to struggle
away. Trakko went to run after them but Mac grinned and pulled out a
device, then threw it to the ground.
The air suddenly turned dark and cloudy around everyone. They all
coughed hard. It was a smoke bomb! When it cleared, Mac, Apollonia, and
Crystal were gone.
"Stupid! Stupid! OW!" Yakko was in pain as Rose tended to his wounds.
She gave him a look, which said "Suck it up you big baby." He scowled at
her and sighed. "I can't believe how stupid I was, I got hurt and now
Crystal is in the hands of that insane guy."
"Its not your fault Yakko." Wakko said.
"Yeah, that guy is too smart." Dot said thoughtfully.
"I could have had him if it wasn't for that smoke bomb!" Trakko
announced.
"I think we all want a piece of him Trakko." Yakko grinned. Then he
winced. "Ow!"
Trakko bit his lip, trying not to giggle at Yakko, who obviously not
taking the pain well.
Rose hadn't said a word, which was normal. Since she couldn't talk.
But Yakko was concerned. He knew how much Rose loved Crystal. Rose is that
type of person. Motherly, caring, protective. Yakko smiled softly. Maybe
she could be a mother to everyone in the group. Not just to him. She
obviously was his mother to him. But his sibs needed a mother also. He did
his best to take care of the two and bring them up right. But now Dot would
need a woman to talk about girl stuff. He was knocked out of his trance by
Rose looking at him curiously.
He blinked and blushed. "Thanks Rose. For everything."
She smiled and nodded. Then stood up and walked over to the others to
see if they were injured.
Yakko still wanted to get Cassie back. But now first he had to find
Crystal. He couldn't let Crystal stay in the hands of that madman.
"We need to find this guy." He said out loud. "Can anyone be able to
find this guy?"
"Rose might. She's quite a whiz on the computer, great hacker too."
Trakko grinned.
Rose blushed a little and nodded.
"Well then go to it Miss Hacker." Yakko grinned. "By the way is there
anything you cant do Rose?"
Rose glared at him and held up a sign. "How about talk?"
Yakko grinned and blushed, totally embarrassed. "Right I forgot."
Rose went to work on the computer to find info about this strange man
they encountered. Everyone else decided to take it easy the rest of the
day.
Apollonia clutched her daughter close to her heart. They both were
together again. Imprisoned in this madman's cell. This time they knew they
could not escape.
"Mommy....I have a name." Crystal said looking into her mother's eyes.
Her mom blinked. "They named you?"
Crystal nodded. "My name is Crystal."
She saw her mom smile softly. "That is a very pretty name. It suits
you. My little Crystal."
Weighted with chains around her wrists and feet, Apollonia made her
way out of the door. The evil man she wanted to kill was behind her, urging
her on with a gun.
"You will not win," she said defiantly, "She will never come with
