Nowhere to Go
"Ray! How could you be so stupid?" Ray thought as she race across the city. "Oh this is just great. You had to expose yourself in front of the Incredibles. Now what?" So many questions appears in her little mind, she can't seem to keep track on where's she going. "What have I done? How does Dash feel about me right now? Is it safe to go back? What will I tell Morph? How can I…" Ray was thinking of so many questions, she can't seem to keep track on where's she going. But before she has time to react, she slams face first into a brick wall. She falls on the ground with a thud. Ray rubs her head and she begins to feel dizzy. She shakes her head and looks up at the sky. She sees the bright moonlight beaming at her face. Stars sparkle in the night sky. She lets out a huge, long sigh of disappointment. She quickly gets up to her feet. She wipes herself off. "Maybe I should get some rest." she thought. "I'll bet that will help me forget the Incredibles for a little bit."
Ray walks toward the nearest alley. She examines it and finds it dark, cold, creepy and wet. She also notices that the alley was filled with rats and garbage cans. She sighs and proceeds onward. She looks around the creepy, filthy alley. She was about to lie down on the ground, when something shot her in the side of her chest. She winces and cries in pain. Slowly, she dozes off and lies on the ground. She has immediately fallen asleep. Two men dressed in black appear in the alley and they observe the body. One of them was carrying a tranquilizer gun.
"Sir." one of them says. "What shall we do with her?"
"Bring her back to us." a dark voice responds. "Alive."
"Yes sir." the two men replies. Carefully, the two men haul her out of the alley and into their black car. The men enter the car and they drive off to the harbor. Once when they reached the harbor, they carry Ray's body to a ship nearby. The sailed across the dark ocean until they come across Nomanisan Island. The two men in black drags Ray's body into the sandy beach. They leave her lying in the middle of the sand. The two men examine the girl one last time before they make there way through the forest. Several minutes later, Ray finally starts waking up. She sits up straight and she stretches her arms and legs. After a quick yawn, she looks around the area. She can hear the soft rushing sound coming from the waves of the ocean. She can feel the smooth, gentle breeze of the wind. She then notices the dark blue ocean and the brownish sand she's been lying on.
"Where am I?" she asks. "And how did I get on the beach?" She then looks behind her and notices a large forest. Her eyes were shot wide open and she gasps. She knows where she is. "Oh my God! I'm on the island where Morph and his family live." Without hesitating, she springs to her feet and she sprints inside the forest. As Ray run through the forest, fear and anxiety rushes through her body. The forest is covered with darkness. Not only Ray can't see where she's going, but she is all alone. No one was around her to comfort her or to support her. She then trips on a log and she falls on the ground face first. She bonks her nose on the ground hard and she has scrapes all over her arms, elbows and legs. She whimpers in pain and her eyes are filled with tears. She wipes away her tears and the pain all over her body, but there is still pain inside her mind. As time passes, the air grows chilly. Ray begins to shiver as she continues to make her way through the forest. Ten minutes later, she manages to make her way to through the forest. She comes across a large silver metallic door.
"Finally!" she sighs. "I've made it." Ray slowly approaches the large door. With all of her strength, she knocks as hard as she could. The door didn't budge. She knocks the door once again. The door slowly opens up making a loud screech sound. It was so loud, the entire room starts echoing. The room is so dark; Ray can't even see her own hands. Ray enters the shadowy room with her legs trembling and her heart thumping.
"And where have you been young lady?" a voice whispers. The dark voice frightens Ray. She literally jumps up out of her shoes. After a whole minute of panting, lights begins to shine. Ray could see Mr. Evil and his wife Evila sitting down on a couch. A huge glare is on their faces. Ray was terrified by their looks. Finally, she regains her courage to speak.
"Um…" she said. "Hello." she waits for an answer. Mr. Evile and Evila just stare at the little girl. They are dead silent. "Well, I guess I'll go to bed now." Ray said. She is about to make her way through the hallway…
"And where do you think you're going young lady?" Evila growls. Ray froze in her steps. She slowly turns her head and her eyes meet Mr. Evile's and Evila's.
"I'm tired." Ray responds.
"Tired?" Mr. Evile asks. "From what?" Ray drops her mouth, trying to think of an answer.
"I…uh…was hanging out with my friends." Ray lies. "We were just hanging around the…"
"You don't have any friends." Mr. Evile answers. "Not anymore."
"What are you talking about, Mr. Evile?" Ray asks. "Of course I have friends. Your son, Morph is my friend, I have friends at school, I have friends…"
"Unfortunately, Morph is not your friend. Not anymore." Evila points out. After hearing Evila's statement, Ray becomes pale as a ghost. She was speechless and scared.
"But I know who else is your friend." Mr. Evile said. "Isn't that right, son?" Ray looks behind her and she sees Morph slumping against the wall. He looks at Ray with a gloomy look on his face. Ray was speechless.
"Morph?" she calls with tears in her eyes. Morph says nothing. He just stares at Ray's watery eyes. "What have I done?" she thought.
"I believe our son told us about you hanging around with one of the Incredibles. And of course, the Incredibles are our enemies." Mr. Evile states. "So tell us the truth Mirror. Are you with us…or against us?" Ray was shocked. She doesn't even know the answer to that question either. She looks at every member of the Eviles before she can answer.
"I…"she stutters. "Um…I…am on ya…your s….s…side. Yeah, I'm on your side, not the Incredibles." she said nervously. Morph lets out a long sigh of relief. However, the glare on Mr. Evile's and Evila's face remains.
"Oh really?" Evila asks. "You know, my husband can read your mind, to see if you're lying to us. Honey?" Mr. Evila gazes at the little girl. A huge, evil grin was planted on his face.
"Let's find out." Mr. Evile smiles. All of the sudden, his eyes turn green. He looks directly into Ray's head. Ray's eyes also turn green. She lets out a scream of pain. The entire room is covered with green light. Morph is too terrified to move or to save his girlfriend. Finally, the light fades away and Ray was on her hands and knees, panting as hard as she could. She looks at Mr. Evile, who has his evil glare back on his face once again.
"She's lying!" he announces. Ray and Morph gasps. "She's working with the Incredibles. And do you know what we do to people who work with our enemies?" Evila's hands turn red and two fireballs appear out of her hands.
"KILL HER!" she screams.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Morph cries. Ray lets out a huge scream that could be heard around the island.
Meanwhile, back in Metroville, Dash slips into his pajamas and he gets ready for bed. He was still crying after the incident he and his family had with Ray. He looks out the window and into the city, where it is pitch dark. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Dash moves slowly to the door and he opens it up. Helen was waiting for him outside.
"What do you want?" Dash mumbles.
"I just want to talk." Helen answers. "May I come in?" Dash sighs and opens the door for her. Helen enters Dash's bedroom and she sits down on his bed. Dash sits right next to her with his head down.
"How do you feel?" Helen asks. Dash stares at his mother, not saying a word. "Are still sad about Ray?" she asks.
"I miss her mom." Dash confesses. "She means everything to me. She was probably the only girl who loves me more than anything else." Tears were dropping out of Dash's eyes. "I never expect her to be like this. How can she do this to me? I gave her everything, and now, she throws back at my face. She broke my heart." Helen wipes off the tears of her son's eyes. She wraps her arms around him.
"I'm sorry too Dash." she admits. "You're right. She was a nice girl. She was sweet, kind and kind of cute." Dash looks at her mom oddly. "But that was Ray. This is Mirror we're talking about. She's evil, just like the Eviles. In fact she's part of the Eviles. She belongs with them, not us. There is nothing we can do to help her."
"But it was an accident." Dash complains. "Ray didn't mean to hurt Vi. She was trying to protect herself. I bet she was the one who defeated Bombarder when he attacked two days ago. She was a hero. If it wasn't for her, I'd probably be dead." With that, Dash starts raising his voice. "I don't know about you, but I think she's not evil. You guys always see things negatively about her, but I'm probably the only one who understands her. I'm the only one who thinks she is good like us. I'm the only here that loves her. Just give her a chance! I LOVE HER, MOM! I LOVE… (slap)" Helen gives her son a vicious slap to his cheek. Dash recoils in pain. He looks back at his mother with tears in his eyes.
"That's enough Dash!" Helen yells. "She is not a hero. She's an Evile. She's a villain. It is our job to put her behind bars. So, I'm sorry Dash, but tomorrow, we're going to put Ray back to where she belongs." Helen rises to her feet and exits Dash's door. She slams the door as hard as she could, causing the whole room to shake. Dash covers his face on his pillow. He continues to cry after the argument with his mother. The thoughts of Ray stir around in his brain. He looks out the window. The moonlight shines in his face. He wipes off his face, gets out of his bed and clenches his fist.
"Not if I can get to her first." Dash says. He sprints to his closet and he slips into his super suit. He opens the door and walks down the quiet, dark hallway, trying not to make a sound. He heads downstairs and to the front door. He opens the door, sighs deeply and heads outside, looking for the one he loves.
Evila throws her two fireballs at Ray. Ray manages to dive out of the way, hiding behind the couch and other furniture. Evila continues to fire fireballs rapidly at Ray, burning up everything the little girl is hiding behind. Ray runs around the room until she was backed into a wall. She watches helplessly as Evila draws closer to her.
"Come on Ray." Ray thought. "You're sitting duck here. If these guys won't help you, then why should you help them?" Ray closes her eyes and clenches her fist. Evila stares at the girl and smiles.
"You are as pathetic as my daughter." she said. "Now it's time to finish you off." Evila puts her hands together and she creates a huge fireball the size of Ray's head. She discharges it and the fireball speeds straight toward Ray. Once when the fireball was close enough, Ray opens her eyes and she throws out her arms. A large force field projects in front of her. The fireball bounces off the force field and heads straight at Evila. The fireball nails her and it explodes. When the smoke settles, Ray can see Evila still standing. There was no sign of damage on her.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" She laughs evilly. "You can't out power me. I'm Evila, the mother of all evil. No one can beat me!" Evila puts her hands together and shoots a huge blast of fire. Ray watched as the huge burst of fire heads straight towards her.
"It's time I give you a taste of your own medicine!" Ray yells. She puts her hands together and a torrent of water sprays out of her hands. The fire and the water collide, creating a vast area of smoke. Ray checks to see if there's any sign of Evila. She sees Evila with her hands turning blue.
"Do you think you can use my powers against me?" she asks. "I'm the mistress of the elements. I'm also known as Mother Nature. No one can stop me!" she then sprays a torrent of water at Ray. Ray tries to counter by blasting a burst of fire at Evila. The flames and the water collide once again. This time, Evila puts a little more power in her blast. The flood of water overpowers Ray's flames. The water nails the girl hard and she slams into a wall. She regains consciousness and she looks up at Evila, just in time to see a fireball coming at her. Ray rolls out of the way to avoid the fireball and heads for the door. She reaches it and opens the door. She takes one good look at Morph, who was breaking into tears. Ray then transforms her back into a jetpack and she blasts out of the island.
"She's getting away!" Evila yells. Mr. Evile places his hand on his wife's shoulder.
"Let her go, honey." he said. "We'll get her." He then turns his eyes toward his son, Morph. "Isn't that right son?"
"What?" Morph asks, knowing something bad is coming.
"You brought a traitor to our island, son." Evila states. "That means, you're a traitor as well."
"What are you talking about mom? I'm your son! I'm an Evile! I'm not a…"
"SILENCE!" Mr. Evile yells. Morph stares at his father. Mr. Evile grins at his son. "So you think you're not a traitor huh? You think you're still one of us? I don't so."
"Come on dad!" Morph pleads. "I'll do anything to prove I'm on your side! ANYTHING!" Mr. Evile and Evila looks at each other. An evil grin appears on their faces. They turn back to Morph.
"Alright Morph. If you can accomplish this mission, then you have just proven to us that you're not a traitor." said Evila.
"What do I have to do?" Morph asks.
"Find that girl, Mirror." Mr. Evile says. "Find her…and KILL HER!"
"WHAT?" Morph yells.
"You heard me." Mr. Evile answers. "That girl is a traitor. You must find her, and you must destroy her. Understand?" Morph looks at his parents, before he nods his head.
"All right." he agrees. "I'll do it."
"You better." Mr. Evile says. "If you failed this mission, then we will use you as a replacement for your girlfriend. Understand?" a tear runs down Morph's cheek. Slowly, he nods his head.
"Now go!" Evila orders. Morph drags himself to the door. He changes his back into a jetpack and he blasts off the island. As he speeds away from his family, more tears runs down Morph's cheek. Those tears will not be wiped off, until he completes his mission in killing his girlfriend.
Meanwhile, back in Metroville, Ray was running around the city, trying to find a place to hide. The city I cold and dark. She begins to shiver throughout her entire body. For half an hour, Ray walks alone in the city. She later grows tired, hungry, and thirsty. Ray finally comes to a dark, creepy, dirty alley. This was the same alley where she and Morph met each other. He slumps against the wall and she starts weeping.
"Oh my God!" she cries. "What have I done? How can Morph's family treat me like that? Why didn't Morph help me when I needed him?" Ray looks up and she notices the bright moon is being covered by the clouds.
"I guess that's it for me." she thought. "I guess there's no point in living anymore, since no one loves me anymore. I'll never leave this dark place. Ever. Ever. I'll stay here till I die." Ray continues to cry harder and harder. Tears runs down her cheeks uncontrollablly. She then looks up and she sees a shadowy figure coming toward her.Right in front of her was a boy in a super suit. Ray opens her mouth, and gasps. She couldn't believe her eyes. The boy looks at her and calls,
"RAY!"
