Here I am with another chapter! Enjoy!


"NeoMoon Star"
Chapter 2


Amber fell to the ground. The Kacheek realized there was no more fighters and walked off out of Neopia Central. NeoMoon Star tried to get up but she fell back down and blacked out.

"Jessica, you're all right now." the nurse said cheerfully. Jessie sat up. She was in the hospital. Sick Neopets were everywhere: Kougras with Neopox to her right, Kikos with Neomonia to her left. Jessie said, "You called me Jessica. But I-" she stopped. She was in the clothes she wore to go to the store with.

"No," the nurse said, "Your powers didn't run out. You were hurt pretty badly."

"But now you know..."

"Don't worry about it. I won't tell a soul."

"Thank you" Jessie looked around the room and saw the only White Usul she had seen in long time. She quickly ran to it, "Amber! Oh, my. What happened to you?"

Amber looked at her, "Jessie, he would've killed you."

"You shouldn't have."

The two went home. No one but the nurse found out about Jessie's secret identity.

The next day, Jessie was out shopping with Brandy. Brandy said, "Did you hear about NeoMoon Star yesterday?"

Jessie pretended she didn't, "No, did she fight off another Mutant Neopet?"

"No. A Mutant Kacheek came but she got knocked out. The Kacheek finally left."

"Oh, is she alright?"

"They say she's fine."

"That's good."

Sapphire, Brandy's Blue Gelert, said, "I know she's alright. She's standing right he--" Amber put her paw over Sapphire's mouth and whispered, "Don't tell her!" Sapphire nodded apologetically. Jessie smiled, saying it was OK. At the end of an hour, they were all spent up. They bought so much stuff, Amber and Sapphire had trouble helping.

When Jessie and Amber got home, Jessie's mom said in an angered voice, "Young lady! I told you to be home an hour ago! You're grounded! But you can still go to Brandy's sleepover, though. I already said you can go."(Isn't that a nice mom?)

"What am I grounded from?"

"You can't go outside or talk to any of your friends for two weeks."

"Two weeks?" She sighed and walked upstairs to her room.

She looked looked at Amber, "What am I going to do, Amber? What are the Neopians going to do? With me grounded, NeoMoon Star isn't going to save them from any enemies that come."

Amber jumped up beside her, "I don't know, Jessie. Maybe Sloth won't send any out for two weeks."

"Yeah, right, Amber. I'd like to believe you."

Brandy's sleepover came. Brandy had only invited Jessie. She felt sorry because Jessie had gotten grounded on her expense. So they partied. Sapphire kept beating everyone at Extreme Herder. Amber's specialty was Eliv Thade. Jessie was good at Advert Attack, while Brandy got a high score on Evil Fuzzles. Amber whispered into Jessie's ears, "Jessie, I feel something bad is going to happen."

"If it does, NeoMoon Star will be there."

Brandy overheard them,"Why are you talking about NeoMoon Star? You know something I don't?"

"No! I mean, of course we don't, Brandy. Why would we know something?"

"Oh, I don't know. Just curious."

Sapphire said excitedly, "Guys, how about another game of Extreme Herder?"

They played five more games. They were starting a sixth but a Mutant Kacheek attacked. Sapphire frowned, "Oh, darn! Balthazar ate my Noil!" She gasped as the wall crumbled.

Brandy grabbed Sapphire and held her close. The Kacheek roared, "I want a fighter!"

Amber looked at Jessie. The monstrous Kacheek walked on, destroying more buildings. Brandy looked at the ruins, "I wish NeoMoon Star were here, but she's hurt."

Jessie gripped her power stick, "NeoMoon Star isn't hurt, Brandy."

Brandy didn't understand, "What are you talking about, Jessie?"

Jessie looked at Amber and nodded, "There's only one thing to do. Neopian Star Power!"


A cliffhanger! What will Brandy think now? Review!

Oh, and I know there isn't a hospital for humans in Neopia, but this is my Neopia: Humans and Neopets live together.
