A/N: Hi again everyone. Sorry it took a while to create this story, I was taking a much needed vacation. So, here's chapter 4! Enjoy and please review!Chapter 4: The Tome of Darkness
Blossom flew quicker as her sisters followed suit. The girls had been flying for about an hour towards the Order of the Incubi base of operations. As they flew, they discussed a plan to carry out their mission. "Well, how do we know what book we want?" Buttercup asked as she flew and kept a look out for any sort of aerial hostiles around them. "Yea, can we read ancient demon texts?" Bubbles added. "I believe we will find it, I can feel it. Our Lord's will is becoming clearer. "Well, whatever it is we gotta do, I hope it will succeed." Buttercup replied with a sigh. The 3 girls flew faster towards their destination.
Blarina was sitting in a makeshift throne room that some of her recently acquired minions had built for her. "Kind of small, but nice and cozy." The succubus said with a snarl. Every once in a while she would feel the sensations coming from the after effects of her seduction on the boys. "That is really good, I can feel their temptation and pain. Delicious." Blarina began to think of a plan to shackle the world in her chains of power and dominance. She knew she has to somehow go around the girls as she knows for sure that they are immune to her abilities, which make them much more difficult. "After all, they're still women, how much stronger can they be?" She asked out loud with a sinister laugh. She kept on laughing sinisterly for the next few minutes.
Blossom closed in on the target with their sisters. "The Citadel, just like those incubi said." She muttered as she directed her sisters to keep an eye out as they flew into the area. It looked like a stone tower, somewhat reminding Blossom of the description of the tower of Isengard from the Lord of the Rings. "It looks almost like the tower that Tolkien had illustrated." She muttered as she looked for an opening with her sisters. "Should we slow down and try some stealth?" Buttercup asked a moment later, noticing the incubi guards that still patrol the tower walls. "It's the freaking 21st century, and they still have guards like the old days!" Buttercup said with a scoff. "Well, hey, they're isolated from the rest of the world. They probably still keep to their traditions." Bubbles suggested. They were about to discuss more when Blossom gave them the order to shush as she dived for cover behind a big rock.
"From our source, the tome of darkness is heavily guarded and probably in a booby trapped room. I don't know, but I don't want to risk having it relocated due to our cover being blown." Blossom said as she scouted for a weakness. "There may be something that may be of some use, my daughters." The girls suddenly hear the voice of the Lord as 3 medallions appeared in their hands. "Wear it around your neck, along with the incubi immunity amulet. Concentrate on the medallion, it will grant you some chance to be unseen by the enemy. Break your concentration, and you might be discovered. Good luck."
The girls nodded to each other and concentrated. Eventually, they noticed that a slightly transparent barrier covered them. They also noticed that each other began to become transparent with the barrier. Only a faint glow of their corresponding colors appeared in their place to indicate their position. Upon further inspection, Blossom noticed that even with the faint glow, the enemies couldn't see them. "I guess the glow is for us to locate one another." With that, the 3 girls slowly advanced towards the tower walls, hovering over it slowly, passed a guard or two and into the inner courtyards. As they flew over the walls, Buttercup had stopped to fool around with a guard. She smacked him upside the head and quickly zipped out of the area to prevent the irritated incubi from picking up her scent.
"Can't you be serious?" Blossom whispered with a sigh as she waited with Bubbles at the side gate into the tower for Buttercup. Coming closer, Buttercup replied with a snort, "sorry, I couldn't resist." Blossom rolled her eyes and broke the lock with her eye beams and opened the door. The three of them hovered inside and reading the carvings on the walls, located the library. "It's in the highest point of the tower." Bubbles muttered as she summed up on the prediction. The three of them then located the spiraling staircase and slowly hovered to the top.
At the library, they found a single incubus, much bigger than the others, looking at an single tome. When Blossom squinted to read the cover, she smiled when she found what they were looking for. She developed a plan and prepared to carry it out with her sisters. They advanced a bit, only to stop in their place when they saw the demon look towards their way and smiled sinisterly. He got up and read out a passage out of the tome. "Blara Isna, Kooma Batis, Kooroom, Batak!" The girls could not react when the barrier was suddenly shattered and their amulets of immunity began to lose its luster. "You think you can sneak past my men and steal this tome?" He bellowed as the girls tried to look away from his seductive eyes.
With every word, the girls rocked with weakness as the incubus lord approached them. Without much warning, he snatched up Buttercup and looked at her. "So rough, and yet so smooth." The demon spoke its poison as Buttercup struggled to resist the inevitable. Her sisters were equally crippled as the demon began to slip a hand under Buttercup's clothing. He groped her, bringing her closer to giving in. The cold touch on her warm skin made her shiver all over as she felt a finger trail around her sacred innocence. He began to tear a rip or two on her clothing when Bubbles knew she must do something all they will all be raped and unable to complete their mission. She used all her will power to let out a loud sonic scream, shattering glass orbs and beakers as the incubus dropped Buttercup on the floor and covered its ears in pain. With the poison words halted, the girls reacted at once, taking their bows and shooting the demon in the heart.
The demon vaporized and was left a smoldering carcass as the girls collected themselves. "You okay, Bcup?" Blossom asked as she held her shaken sister. "Yea…yeah. I almost lost my virginity back there didn't I?" "Well, you're alright now. We're alright now, thanks to Bubbles." "Well, that was too close." Buttercup said, her usual cockiness now long gone. She was getting a little paranoid that the guards will charge in here any minute. Blossom picked up the tome and shook her head a little bit as the dark energies tried to overcome her upon touching the tome. "My, that is some strong shit." Buttercup said as she saw the dark energy flow around her sister. "Well, I've held. They can't corrupt us. Let's go."
The three girls zipped out the open window of the tower and spun around, charging their bows as they targeted the base of the tower. "Well, we got what we want, so let's rid the world of them." Blossom said as she charged her bow to full power, along with her sisters. The fury of the elements raged around the tower. Lightning struck and rain poured without end, drowning and electrocuting many of the incubi panicking. The earth shook as the elements of fire and earth combined to form lava pools and sink holes, pulling everything that crossed their path and consuming them in molten rock and fire. Particularly, the tower itself crumbled into the burning earth as the girls fired their bows into the area, unleashing their elemental fury upon the citadel.
They left the citadel a smoking ruin as they flew back towards Townsville, to decipher the secret of the tome. As they flew, they hoped that it would be the cure to the Boys' madness. "Brick, don't worry. You'll be normal soon enough." Blossom whispered to herself as she flew, with a tear running down her cheek.
A/N: I'm sorry that this chapter is somewhat short, but I just don't feel like the events that are to happen should be in a different chapter. I thank you again for waiting patiently and please review. Have a good day! Chapter 5: "Cured to some extent" will be posted soon.
