The Stubborn Call for Help

Amber woke up in terrible pain, she could only open one eye and she looked around. Citrine was beside her, chained up by his wrists and dangling, he too was awake, his body was covered in gashes and his fur had turned red from so much blood. Amber looked at herself and was in a similar state, she saw her team, in the same condition.

"Oh guys..." Amber whispered.

"Don't blame yourself Amber, none of this is your fault," Citrine replied, looking at her weakly. Amber looked away

"Who did this to us...Ame?" Amber asked, Ruby shook her head.

"Not Amethyst, she's in another cell...being tortured as we speak..." Ruby told her, Amber paled and looked down sadly.

"Some leader I turned out to be..." Amber sighed

"Your a brilliant leader Amber!" Emerald said softly. Amber said nothing and continued to look down.

"But...someone DID do this to us...and it's someone we know..." Sapphire said quietly.

"Who?" Amber asked, looking up.

"...Magnitude..." Sapphire replied, Amber stood...hung there, shocked and appalled.

"WHAT!" Amber snapped. Everyone flinched and she softened her voice.

Just then Magnitude dragged in Amethyst and grabbed a chain shackle and clamped it on Amethyst's wrist, then the same to the other and left, leaving Amethyst to hang like the others.

"Amethyst..." the team gasped. She was by far the worst, part of her tail was broken, deep gashes covered her head to foot and bleeding very badly.

"We need help-" Sapphire started

"We do NOT need help!" Amber snapped, Sapphire sighed, clearly annoyed.

"We DO need help Amber! Call the Fable Unicorn!" Ruby yelled. Amber said nothing.

"Call the Fable Unicorn now, or WE will!" Citrine growled, Amber sighed sadly and a small ying-yang symbol on her forehead glowed. Back at the base, the giant robot unicorn's eyes snapped open as a white mist entered it. It stood up and the platform rose onto a desert dune. The hooves rocket packs fired up and it jumped into the air and flew off.

"There, happy?" Amber asked

"Yes," the team replied. A few minutes later, a loud bang was heard and a bright flash, rubble hit everyone and they were knocked out again.

(a little while later)

Amethyst rebooted herself and opened her eyes slowly.

"She's waking up!" said a hushed voice, clearly Emerald.

"W-What happened?" Amethyst asked quietly

"Shhh," Amber said, gently taking a oxygen mask off her. Amethyst nodded slightly and lay back on the pillows.

"We'll explain everything later ok?" Sapphire said, Amethyst nodded again. The Stripe Team left her in peace.

"Hey, we have a ship on our monitors," Citrine told everyone as they walked in.

"Put it up on screen," Amber commanded, Citrine did so and 4 ships and the Super Robot came onto the screen.

"It's the Hyperforce!" Emerald said in her cheerful voice. Amber nodded and soon, the Hyperforce, Ryou, Ichigo, Otogi, Topaz, Caitlyn, Onyx, Malachite, Eclipse and the others slid down from the entrance into the main room.

"Hey everyone!" Caitlyn yelled, she hugged the Stripe team then realized something. "Wait...one head, two head, three head, four head..." Caitlyn paused "What comes after four?" Everyone fell on the ground in disbelief.

"FIVE YA NITWITTED DIMWIT!" They yelled

"Oh yeah! Thanks guys!" Caitlyn beamed and went back to counting. "Five head...WHERE THE (bleep) IN MY SIX AND SEVEN HEAD!" Jet walked in, limping slightly.

"Amethyst is resting," Jet told them, before she was glomped by Otto,

"Ohhhhh!" Caitlyn said stupidly "Ok!" she kisses Ryou and snuggled into his chest, he smiled and held her close. Topaz hugged Otogi and they smiled, Eclipse looked away from them and walked out the room quickly. Citrine noticed and followed her.

"Are you ok?" he asked, Eclipse nodded. "I guess ya liked that guy then huh?" Eclipse snapped round at him.

"No! He has Topaz, no idea why he would want me!" Eclipse looked away again and walked off, leaving Citrine to sigh.

"That kid...has problems," Citrine whispered and walked back into the main room.

"So how is everyone!" Jet asked, hugging Onyx and Malachite.

"Fine and STOP the hugging," Onyx growled. Jet rolled her eyes.

"We came up here for Christmas," Malachite replied, looking around the room, looking at the blank walls. "But you haven't had the time to decorate I see,"

"We...sometimes don't bother with Christmas," Amber sighed sadly,

"We get too busy," Sapphire explained,

"Well I love it up here now!" Onyx said, looking around.

"Onyx! Just cause you hate Christmas-" Jet started

"Hate...is an understatement!" Onyx snapped. Jet sighed.

"You NEED to move on Onyx! That happened when we were kids!" Jet whispered harshly to him, Onyx glared.

"Your not the one who nearly had your little sister and yourself killed..." Onyx whispered back, no one could hear him other than Jet, who had to back off.

"Um...lets get some food into you guys!" Amber suggested.

"Yeah!" Sprx said and they ran out the room, Onyx was the last to walk in, Jet headed for her room instead.


Me: there! next chappie done!

Jet: yeah! R&R!

Onyx: still hate Christmas!
