Hooked on Phoenix
Chapter 2: Des' Realization
A great meeting of the villagers had once again begun, the shogun had requested that they do so. Stoking the fire, he began to speak. "I have told you of a legendary being that would one day single-handedly save the world. It would appear," he mused as he stabbed the fire with a stick, watching the fire turn blue and silver, "that my predictions were incorrect." The fire arose, creating the illusion of a blue phoenix with a silver chest, and beautiful shining silver-hued eyes. This phoenix's image turned it's head when the first phoenix's image appeared.
Des Lipsky, Syd's twin sister, had always thought she was normal. Of course, there was one distinct abnormality about her: the fact that she was accident-prone (most notably on missions). A close second would have to be who her parents were: Dr. Drakken and Shego. She was like most other girls except for those two things, and of course her powers, given to her by the FBI at the time of her creation. Syd walked into Des' room one morning. "Hey. Sis. Wake up." Syd shook her sister's side, hoping to get her up. "Not now, Syd." Des mumbled, drawing the covers further over her head. "Aunt Jessie says you have to get up." Syd said. She muttered to herself, "For once in my life she isn't telling ME to get off my lazy a-"
"I'm up, I'm up!" Des replied, then hastily walked inside her closet to change. Suddenly, a strange vision hit her. A blue and silver creature invaded her thoughts, the second time that week. She had to get rid of these visions before she ended up failing school. Too much was at stake for her, as she had one of the highest grade point averages in the school (coming in second behind Kim Possible), and she wanted to keep that treasured position, avoiding as much stress as she could. At least, Des figured, she could clear her head during tomorrow's field trip.
The frantic calling, screaming, and 'whoop'-ing of the majority of students going to the museum on the field trip could have been deafening. On the arrival of the museum, the substitute teacher made the mistake of allowing the students to separate and then meet back at a certain time. Syd and Des walked into the 'recently acquired' section, curious to see what they would find. "Well, if it isn't the famous Lipsky twins." Bonnie Rockwaller, who had since followed them. Des' eyes began to glow, her hatred for Bonnie multiplying and multiplying ever since Bonnie spread a rumor about her. "Hey, hey, Des, look!" Syd muttered, staring at something above them.
"Not now, Syd." Des replied, her eyes and hands glowing. Bonnie cleared off, seeing the same thing Syd had. "What, Syd?!" Des asked, her eyes still glowing as well as her hands. Syd only pointed upward, a large stone bird statue had begun to glow sapphire blue and silver, just like Des' hands and eyes had. As Des' anger subsided and the glows stopped, the bird suddenly stopped glowing. "Hey. Hey. Do it again." Syd whispered, amazed. Des did as Syd had asked, and the bird started to glow again. "That is too COOL!" Syd yelled, her hands flaring out of excitement. "Syd! Look at that one!" Des grinned and saw a second bird statue, glowing purple and orange in the same manner as the first statue had done.
"Whoa..." Syd said and unflared her hands, gasping as the bird statue stopped glowing. "It's beautiful!"
"....I think it's YOU, Syd!" Des replied.
"Des, that's crazy!" Syd flared her hands, the bird resumed glowing, Syd unflared them. "Oh God, you're right again."
"Do you think?"
"Nah, couldn't it?"
"Well you always WERE a birdbrain!"
"Ha ha." Syd laughed sarcastically at her sister's joke.
