Hey guys, this is WAY sooner than expected, but I got totally psyched to write another chapter as soon as I saw Eva/Molly defeat Kross once and for all, with Maya's help of course.
Disclaimer: See previous chapters.
Chapter 7: The End of the Beginning.
Chapter Explanation:
Don finds out the truth about Eva/Molly.
Eva/Molly and Jordan head to the Temple of the Heart.
The TRUTH about the Ultimate Prize is revealed.
The Final Race has begun.
Everything will change for good.
I'm not putting in the recap this time because it slightly oversteps my boundaries for writing a fic like this one.
(Chapter Begin)
DragonX returned to the Earth Team's Module with a heavy heart. He needed to explain everything very soon. He just didn't know how to do it just yet. He walked inside just to notice Eva/Molly sleeping on Jordan. Jordan was sleeping as well.
"Aww," smirked DragonX, "now if only that was just Molly."
The scene didn't last long, for Don came up and interrupted them.
"GOOD MORNING!" said Don in a loud voice that woke up Jordan.
"Good morning…?" said Jordan, not fully awake yet. He then noticed his and Molly's position. He tried to get away from Molly but…
"Don't go! Keep me warm," said Molly, still half-asleep while Eva was still fully asleep.
Don glared while DragonX chuckled.
"Will you excuse us, Jordan? There are things I must discuss with Molly," urged Don.
Jordan crawled away with a lame excuse. Molly and Eva then FULLY woke up and Don led them and DragonX to one side of the Temple.
"This competition is no longer about the race. There are Dark Forces at work here," informed Don to Eva/Molly.
"And they are responsible for making Sul disappear. BUT, he is fine," added DragonX, "Sul is too powerful a being to be killed that easily."
"Furthermore, I know you are my daughter: Eva," finished Don, without room for doubt.
Eva/Molly gasped, knowing that Don wasn't lying, and felt betrayed by DragonX, her own 'brother'. They ran down to the Arrow 3 and hid in the cockpit. Don ran after her, DragonX following by walking. DragonX made it as soon as Eva told Don where she was. DragonX followed Don.
"Why, DragonX?" asked Eva, the hurt evident in her tone.
"He figured it out on his own; I just confirmed it for him," replied DragonX.
"I've imagined this moment for a very long time. I would run into your arms and you would hug me," said Eva, tears appearing in her eyes, "and all those years would be forgiven. But now that it's happened, I don't feel a thing."
"There is so much to explain to you Eva," said Don, desperately wanting Eva to understand.
"There's no better time than the present," said DragonX.
"And so many reasons WHY you must hate me," finished Don, in the same manner.
"No doubt there," scoffed DragonX.
Don glared at him, but DragonX was, as usual, unaffected.
"Let me handle this, Molly," said Eva, in a tone that closed discussion between them.
"Alright, but I'LL need to talk to him as well," resigned Molly, letting Eva take over for now.
"Try me," challenged Eva.
Don told his story of how his life had changed, a lot, over the last 10 years, until he came to the Interplanetary Championship.
"Spirit," commented Eva, still thinking about that day, which ruined her life.
"He did not kill Maya," explained DragonX, more for Don's sake than Eva's, "Maya's ship exploded due to someone tampering with it before the race started and after all the checks were done. Spirit tried to save her, but she didn't want Spirit to get caught in the blast."
"Spirit showed me those images after I crashed the Arrow 2 beyond repair," said Eva, her spirits not lifted one bit.
"I destroyed my wife by pushing her to race that day, and I couldn't do that again," finished Don, tears forming in HIS eyes.
"So you left your daughter at the worse school possible!?" wondered DragonX, "I don't get you."
"What's there to get?" said a despairing Don, "I caused my wife to be killed and I left my daughter in a school so she would receive an education without me messing up her life."
"If I didn't help Eva these past 10 years," reprimanded DragonX, "who KNOWS who and where she might be right now!"
"Why didn't you ever call me?" asked Eva, her anger growing, "Why didn't you ever write? Why didn't you ever visit me? WHY!?"
"It wasn't possible," said Don.
"Excuse me: NOT possible!?" countered DragonX, "I visited Eva whenever I could and I was certain to make sure she had a HAPPY birthday every year! And yet, you, her own 'FATHER' never did a thing to help her!"
"I waited for your call every year, and it never came," said Eva, her voice rising with all the anger she bottled up over the past ten years, "The people at the school called me an orphan, and they were right. Other than DragonX, I had no one! He gave the Rocket Seat I used to escape; he even gave me the parts to repair it when the school dismantled it. He's been more like family to me than you did!"
"Eva…" warned DragonX, knowing Eva didn't know when to stop.
"IT TOOK 17 RACES OF ME BREAKING MY NECK FOR YOU TO REALIZE WHO I AM!" screamed Eva, her anger exploding out all at once.
"THAT'S ENOUGH, EVA!" said DragonX, in a more forceful tone that he ever spoke to her before.
Eva was shaken a bit, for DragonX had never spoken to her like that. He had always been friendly and joke-like when he explained things that she shouldn't do or shouldn't be like. The signal went off to start the next race.
"We'll need to talk more later, right now…" started DragonX.
"I know," replied Eva.
"You can't go out there!" pleaded Don.
"Yes I can," said Eva, and Molly, who had decided to reenter the conversation, "AND I will!"
"Don, We need to talk in private," urged DragonX.
DragonX brought Don away from the Arrow 3. He led him up the ramp and into the control room. They found Stan, Koji, and Jordan tinkering with things, minding their own business. (Yeah, right!)
"What are you waiting for!? WE HAVE A RACE…" stared Don, before sighing and finishing in a quieter tone, "get to your posts."
"Go guys," ordered DragonX.
Stan and Koji got to the computers while Jordan raced down to the Arrow III.
"Are you sure that she knows what she's doing?" asked Don seriously.
"She doesn't even begin to know what she's gotten into," replied DragonX, getting shocked reactions from everyone in the room, "None of you do."
"What ARE we getting into?" asked Don.
"The fight to save the Galaxy," said DragonX, with a more serious look on his face than in the time Don has known him.
"That went wonderful," commented Molly inside of Eva's head.
"I'm not in the mood," responded Eva, bitterly.
"So, Daddy had his own reasons for not visiting…" continued Molly.
"I SAID I'M NOT IN THE MOOD!" shouted Eva, her anger showing itself again.
"Okay, okay. No need to get testy," replied an irritated Molly, "I was just trying to lighten the mood a little."
"Please, not now, Molly," sighed Eva, pleading with Molly, "I need to concentrate on the race."
The race began, and went on as usual, everyone battling it out for themselves. Lord Forter trying to stop her, but Jordan took out the cannons and Eva raced passed him. The racers passed over a near bottomless chasm, though this one was not as close to the center of the planet as the other ones.
DragonX knew the time was getting close. He couldn't bear watching Eva/Molly crashing down into the chasm. He walked out of the room.
"Where are you going, DragonX?" asked Don.
"To protect my sister!" came the short reply.
DragonX walked to the edge of the module and jumped off. He activated his Hover Board again and this time flew at a slower pace to the Temple of the Heart again.
(Time Change)
He got there in about 5 hours that time, considering he had to check that Eva/Molly and Jordan were in the Wind Canyon. He landed in front of the gateway and looked around the Arena of the heart. He noticed Eva/Molly and Jordan coming out the tunnel exit. He jump down and walked over to greet them when they both disappeared.
"Shoot, why now?" cursed DragonX, already not liking the situation.
DragonX's family came in to view.
"Hello son, we've missed you so much, come on home. We can be a family again," replied his 'father.'
"Come on back, bud. We're sorry about before," apologized his 'brother.'
"You broke my heart by running away 50 years ago! Please come home!" pleaded his 'mother.'
"You think I would fall for this," replied DragonX, getting angrier with each passing second, "I disgusted you 50 years ago; you think that would change now?"
"Please, come home. We miss you," tried his 'father' once more.
"Oh, spare me the sob story. You may have missed me, but never enough to apologize about the way you treated me 50 years ago," declared DragonX, before shouting out, "BE GONE, ILLUSIONS!"
"DragonX!?" came Eva's voice from behind him, causing the illusions to disappear.
"Molly?" asked DragonX, turning around to see Eva/Molly and Jordan looking at him.
"We're here for you, DragonX," comforted Molly.
"Don't worry about before; I forgive you," added Eva.
"Thanks," replied DragonX.
"Mind telling me what's going on here?" asked Jordan, genuinely confused.
"Just something in the family," responded DragonX, "Let's get going. We need to get to that Temple."
"Why can't you take us back to the Module yourself?" wondered Jordan, "I mean you still have your board, right?"
"Because the Temples have moved on, the race has passed," explained DragonX, "We need to get into that Temple. I know for a fact it has a portal that can take us there directly."
Eva/Molly and Jordan followed DragonX to the entrance of the Temple of the Heart. DragonX looked up at the Stone Figures around the Gateway, not noticing the Shadows behind them.
"DragonX, RUN!" shouted Eva/Molly.
Eva/Molly and Jordan ran past DragonX. DragonX looked behind him.
"What you looking at?" asked DragonX, a smirk appearing on his face.
DragonX began to run backwards, as if to mock the Shadow Demons.
"NOT THE GREAT AND POWERFUL BEINGS OF DARKNESS AS YOU WERE MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO, HUH?" taunted DragonX.
DragonX made it behind the Light barrier just in time before the Demons actually grabbed him. He stopped and ';P' them for their weakness and stupidity.
"Never learn, do they?" boasted DragonX.
"DragonX! UP HERE!" called out Jordan.
"I'M COMING ALREADY!" shouted back DragonX, before heading up the stairs.
DragonX caught up with Eva/Molly and Jordan and they entered the Temple of the Heart.
"You know, if I didn't know that this temple was here," informed DragonX, "I would've began to lose hope like the others."
"We were able to contact them for a second though," replied Eva.
"Then they won't stop, but they're looking in the wrong place, now aren't they?" smirked DragonX.
Eva smirked back at him, understanding the joke. Eva/Molly pulled out their flashlight and all of them walked inside. Soon enough they came across the Oban History Legend.
"Well, I'll be. The stories are true after all," said DragonX, a bit of awe in his voice that didn't go unnoticed by the others.
"What is it?" asked Eva.
"This isn't my story to tell, but I think we can find out. Let's get moving."
"These murals are freaking me out, guys," said Jordan, starting to look freaked.
"Relax Jordan."
"We just need to keep moving," said Eva/Molly.
They came across the TRUTH behind the Great Race of Oban: The selection process of choosing the next Avatar.
"Well, there you go," stated DragonX, as if that explained everything.
"The symbol of the Avatar. We CAN get home if this Temple is linked to him," said Eva, getting hopeful.
"Come on, the portal's this way," said DragonX, leading the way further in the Temple of the Heart.
They came across a bridge with a WHITE chasm beneath it.
"This is bad," remarked DragonX, a bit of fear flashing on his face for a brief moment, "A WHITE chasm is something that no one has seen."
They passed the bridge and entered the main room of the Temple of the Heart. DragonX continued downstairs. Jordan cried out like a little kid.
"Down here, guys," said DragonX, looking at the Pyramid of Power.
"I don't know how to explain it Jordan, but I feel as though there's a reason we're here," said Eva, who couldn't help but descend the stairs.
They went downstairs and joined DragonX by the Pyramid.
"Molly, if you will," suggested DragonX, "touch the pyramid."
Eva/Molly did so. A light ensued from the pyramid and the Creators appeared.
Creators: The time to award the Ultimate Prize has not yet come!
Creator1: Who dares to enter the Temple of the Heart?
Others: WHO?
"We are The Earth Team, finalists in the Great Race of Oban," informed Molly.
The Creators discussed with one another around Jordan.
"LEAVE US ALONE!" shouted Jordan, fearing what they would do to him.
"Jordan, no!" said DragonX, making him stop.
"And you who are you?" asked Eva.
(This gets really confusing, so if I mess up anything by voice, please forgive me)
Creator2: We?
Creator3: We barely remember.
Creator4: We are what began and what will finish.
Creator5: We are what remain of a once great and powerful race.
Creators3-7: We are the last of Creators.
Creator1: Or what remains of them.
Molly: You're not making much sense. Explain yourselves clearly.
Creator9: We have no reason to explain it to you. It is BEYOND you realm of comprehension.
"That's not what Satis told me," whispered DragonX, though no one heard him.
"Try us," said a determined Eva/Molly.
The Council confers once more before deciding to tell the story of the Creation of the Oban Dimension. The way they had progressed, and fallen to mortal desires. They told of their fall and the decision to make a NEW Master of Oban, the Avatar.
Creators: This is how the Great Race came to be.
The Creators left one by one after that.
Creator8: We answered your question. Now LEAVE!
"That's not very nice, you know!" complained DragonX, shaking a fist at them.
"Do you believe any of this?" asked Jordan, skeptic to what the Creators informed the Earth Team.
"I believe the answers lie with the Avatar. We need to go," said DragonX.
A portal opened up behind them.
"Why didn't it do that when I checked it earlier?" wondered Jordan, scratching his head in a confused way.
"It didn't have a reason to," replied DragonX, as if it was the most obvious thing on Oban.
DragonX walked into the portal and waited on the other side for them. They came crashing through a few seconds later.
"Well, shall we go get our answers?" asked DragonX.
"Yes," said Molly.
"We need them," finished Eva.
"Where are we anyway?" asked Jordan, who had never been in Satis's apartment.
"This is Satis's home. You think he wouldn't have a place to stay, now did you?" replied DragonX.
Jordan blushed a bit in embarrassment.
Satis was making his final appearance as the Avatar. He was informing them about the Ultimate Prize once more and not morn the loss of Sul and the Earth Team.
"But what IS the Ultimate Prize?" asked Eva, getting EVERYONE'S attention.
Everyone turned to see Eva/Molly, Jordan, and DragonX walk up.
"Molly!?" exclaimed Aikka in surprise, as well as hidden joy.
"What? You didn't think we survived?" taunted DragonX to the other racers, particularly Kross.
"I AM PLEASED TO SEE YOU ARE BACK AMONG US, HUMAN. BUT FAR LESS THAT YOU DARE TO INTERRUPT ME!" said the Avatar, not REALLY upset with Eva/Molly, but wanted to leave quickly and without much hassle.
Lightning crackled behind him.
"I meant no disrespect, but what IS the Ultimate Prize! I NEED TO KNOW!" urged Eva.
"YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD! ARE YOU DOUBTING THE WORD OF THE AVATAR!?" demanded Avatar Satis.
More lightning.
"The Creators told us the Ultimate Prize won't make our dreams come true!" said Eva.
"THE CREATORS!?" exclaimed Avatar Satis, in surprise and a bit of fear.
"Yeah, the Ancient Masters of Oban. Does that ring any bells?" replied Jordan, before turning to the other racers, "We met them in this weird Temple."
The others looked shocked and looked towards the Avatar. He was silent, contemplating how to keep this truth from them, if not but a race longer.
"The Creators told us that the TRUE purpose of the race was to crown the next Avatar," explained Eva in full.
"Is this true?" asked Ning, getting agreements from the other competitors.
Avatar Satis was STILL quiet, looking a DragonX for any way out of this. DragonX just looked at him and shook his head; there was no other way. Aikka looked at Eva/Molly before returning to the Avatar.
"Why are you not answering her question?" asked Aikka, deciding to support Eva/Molly, yet also had a similar curiosity himself, "Who ARE these Creators?"
"The Earth Girl spoke the truth, my internal lie detector is never wrong," said Ondai, who, as a computer, had such things.
"We have suffered enough! We MUST have the truth!" demanded Ning.
"That's right! No one tricks Lord Forter but himself," (guess who).
"SILENCE! I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS NONSENSE!" shouted Avatar Satis, trying to bring back order.
He created a mini-storm in the Center Temple to scare them into believing him, but it left him winded.
"THE CREATORS (Cough, cough) ARE NOTHING MORE (cough) THAN (cough) ghosts!" said the Avatar, his powers getting weaker with each passing moment.
He vanished to behind the Racers. DragonX went over to help his long-time friend, the Avatar.
Satis was still coughing as DragonX rubbed his back.
"It's okay. You'll be alright, I promise," said DragonX.
"I'm getting WAY too OLD for these: Moments of Majesty. They're very overrated, you know?" said Satis, turning to smile to the Racers.
"It's time you knew the truth," sighed DragonX.
"Satis, you are the Avatar?" asked Eva.
"Yes, I am," said Satis, coughing a bit, "But as you can see: My reign is coming to an end."
"So then it's true. There IS no Ultimate Prize," said Eva, her heart despairing.
"There IS a prize, Molly," said Satis, not revealing Eva's true name yet, "Just not the one you were expecting. For the good of the Galaxy, a new Avatar MUST arise: A creature of Immense Strength and Steadfast Determination!"
"You mean the winner of the Great Race of Oban?" asked Aikka, wanting confirmation.
"Yep, and 10,000 years ago, Satis was named Avatar as well," said DragonX.
"This very day in fact," added Satis.
"Why did you LIE to us?" demanded Kross.
"So your motivations would not be tainted by your lust for Power and Conquest!" said Satis, glaring at Kross.
"That means you, Kross!" added DragonX.
Kross narrowed his eye at the pair, who were unaffected, as usual. Satis used his powers to float in the air in front of them.
"The Avatar is a SACRED DUTY! He is the Guardian and Protector of the Galaxy! It is a Position of Great Strength and Great Responsibility! One to be honored, cherished, and protected!" informed Satis directly, no longer hiding behind pretense, "The Final Race shall go ahead as planned regardless one's choice of staying or leaving! You must inform me by noon with your decisions!"
Everyone started to go to their own portal to think about the information they have been given, and to decide whether or not to participate. Jordan noticed Eva/Molly standing where they were and decided to wait for them.
"I don't blame you, Eva. You really caught me off guard with all this Creator Stuff," said Satis, after most everyone left.
"He knows the truth because he IS the Avatar," informed DragonX, knowing Eva would ask how, "He helped you on Alwas because that is his duty."
"Satis, Can the Avatar bring someone back to life?" asked Eva directly, in case she could still win this for her father.
Muir decided to listen in to see if he could save his wife.
"The Avatar enjoys many powers, but NO ONE, not even the Avatar, should ever mess with the Kingdom of the Dead. I am sorry," apologized Satis.
"That's what I was afraid of," said Eva, feeling her heart begin to shatter all over again.
"Return to the Earth Team Module, we'll bring up the Arrow 3 for repairs," ordered DragonX.
Eva/Molly and Jordan went back to the Earth Team Module.
"I'm sorry, my friend. Your time is running out, I'm not sure you'll last much longer after 1 o'clock," apologized DragonX.
"I'll be fine; I've lived a good 10,000 years. I'm just worried for Eva and Molly," replied Satis, "They will decide the Fate of Canaletto."
"If things go according to plan, they'll be happier than they ever had been before in their lives."
"What you did, are you sure you did the right thing?"
"I'm sure. I'm giving Eva the best life I can think of. Molly will be happy with Jordan. The only thing is the timing of everything."
"I only pray your plan works."
Stan and Koji headed downstairs to see the Arrow 3's damage, and were shocked at what the severity was.
"Forget it," resigned Koji, "We can never fix it."
"We can't leave our baby looking like this!" disagreed Stan, wanting to fix it no matter HOW long it would take.
"I agree completely. I'll help out as much as I can," said DragonX, announcing his presence to the two best mechanics he knew.
"DRAGONX!" exclaimed Stan and Koji, happy that he was back.
"You didn't think I'd run off and leave you, did I?" taunted DragonX, "You guys up for one last race?"
"This is the last of the last! We need to do our best work here," ordered Stan, getting out his tools.
"RIGHT!" agreed Koji, his spirit rejuvenated by his friends.
"Oh, and when we get back to Earth, you guys will need to start designs on the Whizzing Arrow 4," suggested DragonX.
Kross was rallying the Crog Imperium to follow his bidding. Lord Forter was picking out a good hat to be crowned Avatar in. Muir decided not to participate in the last Race. Ondai wanted to be Avatar to become of Flesh. Ning and Skun decided to Race to gather their people together. O was preparing for his part in the coming battle. Aikka was thinking about his duty and what will happen if he or Kross became Avatar. He decided that Molly would be best suited to be crowned Avatar. Don contacted the President and told him the truth, but the President wanted what many others wanted: Power and Conquest.
DragonX helped out for nearly 2 hrs. He decided to join Eva/Molly as they went to see Avatar Satis.
"It seems Muir has not joined our party. What about you?" asked Satis to the group gathered.
"I'm in," started Kross, stepping forward.
"I'm in," followed Forter.
"We're in," agreed Ning and Skun.
Ondai and O were in as well. Aikka looked at Eva/Molly then back at Avatar Satis.
"I'm in," said a determined Aikka.
Everyone looked at Eva/Molly.
"I'm uh…" started Eva, before stopping herself with her indecision.
"What's with the hesitation? Do you want me to say it?" offered Molly.
"NO! I've made my decision and I'm not changing it," replied Eva, resolute in her decision.
"Molly?" asked Aikka
"I'm so out!" blurted out Eva, for all to hear.
Satis sighed disappointedly while Aikka gasped. Eva turned around and walked away. Everyone looked at DragonX as if to explain it.
"She's made her choice, there's nothing I can do about it now," said DragonX, knowing that Eva would have to decide her own destiny.
Kross laughed, before speaking, "I suggest you ALL do the same. None of you stand a chance against the power of the Crogs."
Aikka went after Eva/Molly.
"Is that a challenge, Kross?" smirked DragonX.
Aikka caught up with Eva/Molly.
"Molly, you can't do this. ALL of us must stand together against the Crogs. If Kross becomes Avatar…" started Aikka.
"I think you've switched sides just a little to easily, Aikka," said Molly, harshly at that.
Aikka looked hurt, but knew it was the truth. Molly regretted saying that, because deep down, Molly really came to know Aikka as a friend as well.
"You take care of it," said Molly, Eva's sadness seeping into her words, "This is no longer my fight."
DragonX waited for everyone to get out of hearing range before turning to Satis.
"Eva and Molly will be apart of this Race. Make sure to release her ship with the others," informed DragonX.
"Of course," replied Satis.
DragonX walked away while bringing out his communicator.
"DragonX, sir. How may I help you?" asked Miss Porter from the other side of the line.
"I need Maya to get ready for the final race. Eva and Molly will need all the help they can get against Kross," informed DragonX.
"I shall inform her immediately."
"Also have Maya, Rick, and Sul on standby. I'll need to pick them up before heading back to the Temple of the Heart."
"I shall give them the message, sir."
"Thank you. And remind me when I get back after the mission to give you a raise."
"Yes, sir. I shall be waiting," said Miss Porter, not one to argue with her boss, especially on said circumstances.
DragonX closed the communication and got back to the Earth Module. He helped finish the repairs on the Arrow 3 with Stan and Koji.
Eva and Molly were still arguing about participating in the race.
"You NEED to do this! What about Kross? You want HIM to be Avatar and destroy the Galaxy?" urged Molly.
"I participated in this race because DragonX told me to. I wanted to win to save my mother, but now it's all over and there's nothing to Race for anymore," countered Eva.
"One: DragonX never pushed us to race! He always told us it was our decision. And two: what about Aikka? I thought you liked him, but I guess I was wrong," replied Molly, before adding tauntingly, "I guess I'm also right about before, you DON'T want to save your honor. The Eva I've come to know is too strong to let anything stand in her way. You're nothing but a Shadow of the REAL Eva!"
"You can't be serious! I've risked everything for this race! I've got nothing left to lose whether I participate or not!"
"That's where you're wrong!" countered Molly, her anger becoming too much to hold back any longer, "YOU HAVE EVERYTHING TO LOSE! DAD, JORDAN, AIKKA, STAN, KOJI, AND EVEN DRAGONX! THIS ISN'T EVEN MENTIONING ALL THE HUMANS LEFT ON EARTH WHO WILL BE AT THE MERCY OF THE CROGS! ARE YOU GONNA LET EVERYTHING WE WORKED FOR BE DESTROYED IN A INSTANT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DO THE ONE THING YOU INHERITED FROM YOUR MOTHER!?"
Eva was quiet; Molly had stuck a cord with the Mother comment. Eva thought about her Mother and what she would do in this situation.
"As long as we can fly, there's still hope. I refuse to believe it's the end of the world. We can still do this, my Darling Daughters. We just have to be able to fly," came Maya's voice through their mindscape.
Eva gasped, that was really her, Maya. Eva and Molly heard the Arrow 3 being repaired.
"The others aren't giving up and we shouldn't either," added Molly, albeit in a softer tone.
"I'm sorry," apologized Eva, her determination getting stronger with each passing moment, "I shouldn't have doubted myself. We CAN still do this!"
"That's the spirit, let's get down there and show Kross who's TRULY worthy of the Ultimate Prize!" declared Molly in a strong voice.
Eva/Molly went down to where the others were fixing up the Whizzing Arrow 3.
The signal went off just as the Repairs were finished and Eva/Molly came down.
"You know, Molly, maybe this is for the better. I wouldn't want to ride in that thing anyway," said Jordan, starting to get doubts about the Arrow 3.
Stan growled while Koji glared. DragonX chuckled as he waited for Eva/Molly's response.
"Such a Chicken!" smirked Molly.
"Don't I know it!" agreed Eva.
"It's so beautiful! Hurry up, Jordan! We're late!" said Eva, in a tone that Jordan had learned NOT to argue with.
"This is it, Molly: Time for the Ultimate Race," said DragonX, supporting his 'sister' as he always did.
"Don't you know it?" countered Eva, climbing up the ladder to the cockpit.
"Wait for me: MASTER OF THE GALAXY!" said Jordan, his spirits lifted again, as he jumped into his turret.
"I'm only racing to stop Kross. I have no desire to become…" started Molly.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever, MISS AVATAR!" cut off Jordan, sticking his head out one last time.
"He'll never learn!" chuckled Molly.
"I'll say!" agreed Eva.
"Look Koji, our baby's going out for one final race!" said a teary Stan.
"Don, we need to get ready. Just remember: This is HER decision," said DragonX, to Don Wei who had entered the room a while ago but remained quiet.
Don refused and ran to the Control Room to try and get some sense into her. DragonX followed.
Don contacted the Arrow 3.
"Eva, you don't have to do this! We can go home now! I promise you and I will never be separated again!" pleaded Eva's father.
"Unfortunately, there's one last thing we need to do to make sure we CAN go home to a SAFE Earth," responded Molly to Eva.
"I hope I can live to see that day. I have one last thing to do here, BEFORE we can go home! This is about more than just us right now," said Eva, determined to see this race through.
"Go get 'em, Champ!" said DragonX, entering the room, his voice carried over the comlink.
"I will, DragonX!" said Eva/Molly.
"Good luck, Eva. Your Mother would be so proud," said Don, a smile appearing on his face.
"Don't worry, Eva. Maya is with you; you've just got to feel her!" reminded DragonX.
"Thanks, bro!" replied Eva.
The Modules opened and the Final Race (Battle) began!
(Time Change)
Kross was able to take out Ning and Skun, as well as Lord Forter. Satis contacted O and asked him to help in the coming battle. Aikka was able to take out Ondai and was moving on to his next target when he saw the Earth Team come out. HE didn't want to shoot at them, but if Jordan shot first, he wouldn't hesitate. Eva/Molly convinced Jordan to NOT shoot Aikka. Aikka proposed an alliance between Nourasians and Humans, Eva agreed within a few seconds.
"Molly, at least play hard to get," sighed Jordan.
"Thank you, with us working together, there is no doubt we can defeat Kross. You will make a WONDERFUL Avatar, Molly," said Aikka, the truth shining in his eyes and rung with his voice.
Eva blushed, before responding, "I was thinking the same thing about YOU, Prince Aikka!"
Prince Aikka blushed as well. The FINAL Gate revealed itself and they raced off to it, but not until after:
"Let's beat the Crogs TOGETHER!" said Eva.
"We can flip a coin for the Avatar Position!" added Molly.
They winked at Aikka.
"Well, there's your hard to get, Jordan," said Molly, though Jordan would never hear it.
They were able to catch up with Kross within a few minutes. After a few rounds were exchanged, they were able to pull in front of him. Kross got out of the rubble in a few seconds though, and decided to take out Prince Aikka first. He knocked out G'Dar with his Trident move. Eva/Molly went after him, but was stopped by Aikka.
"Molly! Do not worry about me! Stop Kross now!" urged Aikka's voice in Eva/Molly's head.
"We will!" promised Eva/Molly.
In a mad frenzy, Eva/Molly raced after Kross with the FULL intent on stopping him by any means necessary. They activated the Booster Drives and chased after him, passed him, and tried to stay away from his Trident. Kross activated HIS one-time Overdrive and chased after them.
Koji was able to reconnect as Eva/Molly was activating the Booster Drives for the final time.
"Eva!" shouted Don in concern.
"Go for it, Molly," said DragonX, knowing what was to happen.
Maya was ready for this; she knew she was. She was flying in the Simulation right alongside Eva/Molly. She contacted them when the time is right.
Eva/Molly was trying to beat Kross to the Gate. Then Molly spotted an opening in a nearby pillar.
"THERE! That tunnel!" pointed out Molly.
"On it!" replied Eva, changing course.
They made it through the tunnel, but Kross was able to get into perfect position to cut the Arrow, and Eva/Molly, in half. Eva thought is was all over until…
"You're not thinking about letting him do this to you, are you? That's not the way MY daughter(s) should think like!" said Maya, her voice echoing in Eva's head.
"MOTHER!?" exclaimed a confused Eva.
"MAYA!?" added Molly, her confusion was about the same as Eva's.
"Let's do this together, my Daughters, and show Kross who the REAL pilots are. He's not facing just one, he's facing THREE!" reminded Maya.
"RIGHT!" replied her daughters.
"Follow my lead!" said Maya.
"Here goes nothing!" shouted Eva/Molly.
Maya led them through one of her best moves and landed in between the top two blades. They caused Kross to crash into the ramp up to where the Gate was.
Kross swore just like Toros did back on Alwas just before dying from the crash, "BY CRAM!"
Eva/Molly raced up the crumbling ramp and passed through the Gate to win the Great Race of Oban. They saw a flash of Maya, as they knew (not really) that they were never going to be together again.
"Way to go, Molly!" cheered DragonX, as he and the others watched Eva/Molly's spectacular performance in a one-on-one against Kross.
"Don't you mean Eva!?" replied Don, but still happy as well.
"Right!" said DragonX, his happiness fading when he sensed something foreboding enter his fears.
They just witnessed Eva/Molly's triumph over Kross and winning the Race. DragonX raced down to congratulate them. He got there with seconds to spare.
"MOLLY!" shouted DragonX.
He couldn't do anything about it. He saw Eva/Molly disappear in a golden shower of light. Jordan got out a few seconds later.
"Molly!?" exclaimed Jordan in surprise and fear.
'Oh snap! If Eva does follow the plan, then we need to get out of here,' thought DragonX, before turning towards Jordan, "Jordan, gather up everything you can, this is an emergency. We need to prep the Arrow for flight as soon as possible.
"Why…?" asked Jordan, still confused on what's happening.
DragonX left before Jordan could ask anything. DragonX rushed back to the control room.
"We have an emergency here! Gather all the important equipment and all other items of value and get in the Arrow 3! NOW!" ordered DragonX in his most authoritative voice ever.
"You heard him! Get a move on!" said Don, not knowing what's happening, but trusted DragonX on what to do.
Everyone went around the Module and gathered everything they could within the time frame. Eva/Molly came back on schedule.
"MOLLY!?" said DragonX, being caught off guard by her entrance, before snapping back to attention, "We need to leave, NOW!"
"What's going on!?" asked Eva.
"You not becoming Avatar! That's what! Now, get to the Arrow, we need to get out of here!" replied DragonX.
"Explanations FIRST!" demanded Molly.
"THERE'S NO TIME! GET IN THE WHIZZING ARROW 3, NOW!" urged DragonX, his tone getting as forceful as before when she let out her anger at Don Wei just two days ago.
Eva/Molly followed orders, hoping for an explanation after all of this was over. They got into the Arrow 3 just in time for Canaletto's evil to infect all the Modules. Aikka saved Satis and was able to survive the explosion to come. Satis explained what Canaletto was doing and that Eva/Molly must become Avatar.
Everyone survived the Explosion and was heading to an empty temple to regroup. DragonX went upstairs to look out at the destruction Canaletto caused.
"This isn't over, Canaletto. My plan is in its second phase, not even you can stop me now," said DragonX, his resolve barely wavering, "I can't stop, not even for this. It's time for the truth, the WHOLE truth this time."
G'Dar came flying in. Eva/Molly came running up the stairs. DragonX stood back to allow G'Dar to land.
"Aikka! I thought I lost you," cried out Eva, her concern flooding off in waves.
"He's very weak. We need to get him downstairs," said DragonX, picking him up.
About 10 minutes passed before it was determined that Aikka would live. Eva/Molly decided to go see him. Jordan followed shortly afterward. DragonX pulled out a vial that his boss gave him.
"Eva, Molly, time to see if this works," said DragonX, more to himself than anyone else.
"What do you got there, DragonX?" asked a curious Don.
"Remember when I said: She hasn't been just Eva in a long time?" asked DragonX, reminding of the conversation a few days back.
"Yes."
"She is more than just Eva; she's Molly as well. I told you they were one and the same, but that is no longer true. For a long while now, Eva AND Molly have resided inside of Eva. This potion I've developed may be able to separate them. In theory, it SHOULD give Molly a body all her own."
"Should?"
"I've never been able to test it, as I've never had a chance to try it out on another who has two spirits in the same body."
Eva/Molly, Jordan, and Aikka came out.
"It's time I did some explaining," said DragonX straight out.
"It'll have to wait," said Eva, wanting to get to the Temple of the Heart before Canaletto.
"No, Canaletto has to wait, for he cannot directly obtain the Avatar's power himself, so we have SOME time," countered DragonX.
"Okay, what now?" asked Molly.
"This," said DragonX, showing them the vial of potion.
"This potion, which I have researched on, should, in theory, separate Molly from Eva," informed DragonX.
"What? Eva?" said Jordan in surprise, as he had never heard Molly being called that by the others.
"I believe that seeing is better for believing in this case. Show us Molly and Eva, DragonX," said Aikka, who was a bit more aware of the situation as he noticed Molly display different personalities at different times.
DragonX handed over the vial to Eva/Molly.
"Are you sure this will work?" asked Eva.
"Yeah, what if it kills us or something?" added Molly.
"I have done extensive research over the years to make this, but the only thing I have NOT done is test it," explained DragonX, "So, the actual chances of it working are about 90 percent."
"What do you say, Molly?" asked Eva, not wanting to go through with it if Molly had doubts.
"I say we trust DragonX, he rarely let us down before and I think he might just be right about this," comforted Molly, as well as agreeing to take the potion.
"Well, bottoms up," said Eva, raising the vial.
"See ya, on the other side," finished Molly, before downing the liquid.
Eva/Molly drank the potion in the vial, and immediately felt the effects of it.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" cried out Eva, wrapping her hands around her body, feeling pain beyond any she ever experienced. It was that painful, like someone was ripping out part of her soul through her body. A light came out of Eva and floated a few feet away, the light transformed into a body nearly exact to that of Eva's. The only thing that different was the color scheme on the clothes, hair, and eyes were reversed. Where there was green, there was yellow, and vice versa. Where there was red, there was black, and vice versa again. The marks on the cheeks were reversed. (I know it's kinda hard to imagine, but try to draw it out if you can to help with the imagery. If someone would like to send me a photo of what they think Molly looks like in my story, please share.)
"Whoa," said Jordan, impressed.
"I'll say," agreed Aikka, "I never expected something like this."
"Is it over?" asked Eva, feeling the last of the pain ebbing away.
"You tell me," said Molly, who had recovered faster than Eva did.
Eva got up slowly and looked over at Molly. She was surprised at what Molly looked like.
"I guess we really ARE twin sisters, aren't we?" said Eva, slightly smirking.
"Well, maybe not at first, but what are siblings for if you can't fight with them every now and again?" countered Molly, showing a bigger smirk.
"I don't know, you tell me and maybe we'll both know," replied Eva in the same manner, her smirk growing.
Eva and Molly laughed, DragonX joined in, confusing the others even more as they didn't get the inside joke.
"What is going on here?" asked Don.
"Don Wei, I'm Molly, your new daughter," informed Molly.
"Dad, I'm sorry about this, but DragonX wanted to keep this a secret," added Eva.
"Don't try to pin this on me, now," said DragonX.
"There isn't time for this," said Aikka, remembering the mission at hand, "We must stop Canaletto."
"I know," said DragonX, his face returning to his serious expression, "Eva, you need to go with Aikka and Jordan. Molly will come with me and we'll really confuse Canaletto."
"Besides, it gives me time to spend with Don, I mean Dad," said Molly, instantly correcting herself in her new position as Eva's twin sister.
"Aikka, Jordan, I want you to take care of Eva. Keep her safe," asked Don of Aikka and Jordan, not wanting to lose her daughter, his last link with Maya.
"We will," promised the boys.
"Jordan, can I speak to you a second?" asked Molly, interrupting further plans of leaving.
"Sure Molly," agreed Jordan.
Molly led Jordan upstairs for a bit.
"Any questions?" asked DragonX, wanting things out of the way now instead of later.
"I have one: Why keep this a secret?" asked Stan.
"I'd like to know that as well," agreed Koji.
"This was to ensure that Canaletto doesn't win. I have come here on a mission; it has taken me many years to get to this point, but now's the time to say it. I am here to help in the battle against Canaletto. I kept my knowledge and the truth from everyone so Canaletto doesn't find out about me and stop me from achieving my goal," explained DragonX, ready to reveal most, but not ALL of his secrets regarding this dimension's changes.
"Okay, what HAVE you been keeping a secret?" asked Eva, getting directly to the point.
"A lot actually," replied DragonX, "I saved Rick from his crash. In fact, Rick never raced in the Great Race. The crash was set up by Canaletto to make Eva race. His plan had been to manipulate Eva to race and win, because he knew she would refuse the throne of Avatar. This allowed him to be freed from imprisonment."
"Then why did you want me to race? You said it was my decision," asked Eva next.
"I did, but you decided to race all on your own. I had very little to do with it," explained DragonX, telling the truth to Eva in such a way for her to see it, "Molly was the one, who convinced you to race and beat Kross, didn't she?"
"Yeah, she did," admitted Eva.
"Now's the time to head out. O is out there waiting to join you. He is willing to help the next Avatar ascend to the throne, even give his life for it," informed DragonX.
Molly and Jordan came down, holding hands.
"Wow, didn't think you get together already," teased DragonX.
"MOLLY!" shouted Eva playfully.
Molly just giggled while Jordan blushed embarrassed.
"So, you already picked out a boyfriend, did you Molly?" teased Don, in a slightly uncharacteristic way, "I never thought I would have another daughter and lose her to a boy within 15 minutes."
Molly DID blush at that, while Jordan's blush only deepened. Everyone but Molly and Jordan laughed at that, even Aikka.
"Now, it's time to go. Eva, you're piloting the Arrow. Molly, you're with me," said DragonX.
"Right!" responded Eva.
"Yes, Sir," followed up Molly.
"Take care of my daughters, boys," said Don again, wanting a stronger promise from Jordan this time.
"We will, sir," promised the boys again.
Aikka went upstairs to ride G'Dar while Jordan got into the gunner's position. Molly got on DragonX's Hover Board behind DragonX. DragonX pulled out his communicator.
"Molly, hold on. Eva, You and Aikka go ahead, we'll catch up," said DragonX to his 'twin sisters'.
"Right," replied Eva.
Eva and Aikka went ahead of DragonX; DragonX did this to speak with Molly alone. DragonX switched channels on his communicator.
"Miss Porter, do you read me?" called out DragonX, confusing Molly.
"I read you sir," responded a voice Molly never heard before.
"I'm coming in, and I'm bringing a friend," informed DragonX.
"The transport is ready for arrivals," responded Miss Porter.
"Alright, I'll be there shortly," responded DragonX, cutting off the comlink.
DragonX opened a portal and flew through it, bringing Molly along for the ride.
Sul was losing in a simple card game of Go Fish, since he was forced to promise to not use his powers here. In the end, Maya won, again, and they were getting ready for the next game when Miss Porter walked up.
"DragonX is on his way; he wishes that you are there to greet them," informed Miss Porter to the card playing group from the Oban Dimension.
"Them?" asked Rick, confused as to how DragonX would bring someone else here.
"It seems he's bringing a friend," responded Miss Porter.
Rick rushed ahead of everyone else, with Maya and Sul right behind him. Miss Porter was behind them by a few seconds. They reached the teleport station.
"Sup, guys. You ready to beat Canaletto?" asked DragonX, a smirk appearing on his face.
"I'll say, its getting boring losing to Maya all the time," responded Rick.
"You've won a few times," countered Maya, "just not when the chips were down."
"I believe we must join you at the Temple of the Heart," said Sul, getting the focus back on track, and to cover the fact that he too lost when the chips were down.
"That's right, but before we go…" started DragonX, before standing aside reveal Molly behind him.
"Little Mouse, or is it the Other Mouse?" asked Rick, who had been aware of Eva's twin personality since completing his training.
"It's Other Mouse, Rick. It's good to see you," responded Molly.
"Molly?" asked Maya, wanting to confirm what she saw during the times she linked with Eva to find another personality within her.
"Hello, Maya. I'm glad to meet you," said Molly, bowing to her new mother, "I am Molly; Eva's newly embodied twin sister."
"I've planned everything up to this point," said DragonX, reminding everything what's supposed to be going down. "We need to get to the Temple of the Heart to save Eva from Canaletto."
DragonX went through a new portal that opened up shortly after the first one closed.
"We need to hurry, my bond with Eva is telling me she's in trouble," said Molly, indeed feeling something amiss in her heart.
Molly followed DragonX. Maya, Rick, and Sul went next. Miss Porter closed the portal as to not let Canaletto aware of this dimension.
A group of five landed at the doorway of the Temple of the Heart. DragonX looked out at the sacrifice of O in battle.
"I promise: your sacrifice will not be in vain, O," said DragonX, a grim look on his face that no one ever saw before in the Oban dimension.
"I wish I was able to help, but I am not sure what to do," said Sul, uncertain for the first time in many years, if not decades.
"If you wish, you can go back to just before O blew up and transport him out of his ship," suggested DragonX, "We can wait for you over there if you would like to help him."
"I'll be back with O," promised Sul.
Sul used his powers to warp back in time to save O from the explosion and warp back into the present.
"Good job. Canaletto is just about to get an even bigger surprise," said DragonX, his grim expression leaving as if it were never there.
"Let's head inside, shall we?" suggested Maya, wanting to help her daughter.
"G'Dar, find Canaan and stay with him," said DragonX to G'Dar, who had been waiting for Aikka outside, "I'll make sure Aikka's safe."
G'Dar shrilled, thanking DragonX, before flying off in search of Canaan. The others walked inside, noticing the murals of the Creators' history. They came to the bridge over the WHITE Chasm, which was shooting up what looked like magma, or some fact-simile of it.
"Molly, you and O are in the Middle," ordered DragonX, slipping into his leadership shoes again,
"Sul, I'll take the lead, and you follow in the back. Maya, you get right behind me. Rick, stay in front of Sul and behind Molly."
"Right," responded the others.
So they lined up and went across the bridge one at a time. DragonX, Maya, O, Molly, Rick, and Sul was the procession.
They entered the main room to see Canaletto talking to Eva, manipulating her to activate the Pyramid.
"I've never been free?" asked Eva, desperate for some positive answer, but got something else in return.
"YOU WERE FREE, EVA! THE LOSS OF YOUR MOTHER AND THE DESERTION OF YOUR FATHER CREATED A PERFECT ALCHEMY, A BLAZING PAIN WITHIN YOU!" said Canaletto, in his smooth manipulating, yet annoying to DragonX, voice.
"And that's where I came in, isn't DragonX?" asked Molly.
"Yes, but stay quiet until the right moment," responded DragonX.
"I WAITED UNTIL THIS FLAME REACHED OBAN, WHERE IT WOULD SET ABLAZE THE ENTIRE GALAXY!"
"My Mother!? It was you? You made her crash!" realized Eva, her tears not stopping for a moment.
"SHE HAD TO GO, TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN YOU!"
"AND SHE'S NOT DONE YET, CANALETTO!" shouted DragonX, getting his attention.
Canaletto looked up as he hypnotized Eva.
"WHAT!? WHAT IS THIS?"
"Your downfall!" shouted DragonX.
'EVA! DON'T LISTEN TO CANALETTO! DRAGONX SAVED OUR MOTHER FROM DYING! HE SAVED RICK FROM HIS TERRIBLE ACCIDENT; HE EVEN SAVED SUL FROM CANALETTO! DON'T LISTEN TO HIM; HE'S LYING! EVA! EVA!' shouted Molly to Eva mentally, before sighing, "It's no use; she's under his power. She can't hear me."
"Sul, let's get him!" said DragonX, preparing for attack.
"RIGHT!" responded Sul.
DragonX charged with Sul behind him.
"I won't let you get away with hurting my sister like that!" said DragonX, his glare intensely focused on Canaletto.
"YOU FOOL! YOU CAN'T STOP ME, NOT NOW!!"
Canaletto used most of his power to stop DragonX and Sul from stopping him from getting his Avatar Powers back, "NOW, WHERE WAS I? OH YES! EVA, FORGET THE PAST! THIS IS A NEW BEGINNING."
Eva moved to activate the Pyramid.
"WE'LL TEAR DOWN THIS FLAWED WORLD AND BUILD A NEW ONE, FULL OF PURITY, A WORLD WITHOUT PAIN, A CHANGELESS WORLD OF PERFECTION AND ETERNAL STILLNESS."
Eva touched the pyramid, shedding a tear from each eye, and the Creators came out. (Again, same as before with the Creators)
Creator 7: Be gone Canaletto!
Creator 3: You have no purpose here!
Creators: You are no longer the Avatar!
"ENOUGH! THE WINNER OF THE GREAT RACE, AS PER YOUR REQUIREMENTS, HAS ACTIVATED THE PYRAMID OF POWER! NOW, PERFORM YOUR FUNCTION AND GIVE ME BACK THE POWERS OF OBAN!"
Canaletto used his powers to destroy the creators one by one, and the destroyed Creators went back into the sphere. This gave time for Molly to rush over to Eva and, more importantly, give Jordan enough time to reach the sphere and become Avatar before Canaletto.
"NO! JORDAN!" shouted Eva.
"JORDAN, I BELIEVE IN YOU!" shouted Molly, encouraging her boyfriend.
The blinding flash of light banished Canaletto from the Temple of the Heart and extended all across the galaxy, stopping the war between Crogs and Humans. Eva and Molly saw Jordan one final time, Jordan kissing Molly goodbye before leaving. DragonX and the others joined Eva and Molly after they were returned to outside the Temple where Don, Stan, and Koji were staying. They rushed out to meet the others, Maya and Rick surprising Don, and Stan and Koji, respectively, more so than Sul.
"Maya!?" exclaimed Don, confused and happy at the same time, not wanting this to be a dream.
"Hello, Don. I've missed you," said Maya softly, walking slowly to Don.
Maya kissed him when she reached him, with the lost years of love and compassion.
"Sup guys, you miss me," smirked Rick to Stan and Koji.
"Not really, just…" started Stan.
"A whole bunch," finished Koji.
Rick and Stan fist pounded, while Rick and Koji just shook hands. Eva was amazed that Sul was alive, as well as Aikka when he got up.
"AIKKA!" shouted Eva, running over to him, hugging him.
"Eva!?" exclaimed Aikka, returning the hug.
"You okay, Aikka?" asked Molly, walking over to them.
"I'm fine Molly, what about you?" replied Aikka.
"I've been better, and worse; but then again, I haven't lived long enough to say that with complete truth," said Molly, a smile appearing on her face.
"EVA! MOLLY!" shouted Don, running over with Maya.
Eva and Molly joined Maya and Don in a BIG Wei Family hug.
"I think it's time I explained the rest," said DragonX, not holding anything back this time, "but back on Earth. Sul, O, I think you have your own transports to get to."
Muir, as well as Ning and Skun also survived and were transported in their Transports to go back to their planets as well as Sul and O.
"Let's go, Eva!" shouted Don to Eva.
Eva was talking to Aikka alone. He invited her to see Nourasia someday.
"With great pleasure, but don't forget: I'll be waiting," said Eva, a small genuine smile on her face, the first of many reserved for him.
Eva returned to the others just in time for the transport to take them up. Molly air-kissed Jordan goodbye (for now) and they were taken back to Earth, the Oban Creatures giving them a farewell 'concert'. Jordan shed one tear for Molly as they departed. The group heading to Earth had a REAL surprise for them when they got there.
(Chapter End)
RDF1: Wow that's a LONG chapter. I thought it would take longer, but it didn't strangely enough.
Dx: I'll say; I had major work to do AND change a (beep) load of stuff here. I still have some MORE work to do in the Epilogue Chapter.
RDF1: Watch the language! Otherwise, I'll take away that raise.
Dx: Sorry.
Eva and Molly drop in.
Eva: Hey guys.
Molly: How's it hanging?
Dx: Not bad. We're just finishing up a MAJOR Chapter here.
Eva: I know; I'm ready for this to be over.
Molly: It isn't THAT bad.
Eva: (deadpan) You didn't get tricked into helping Canaletto.
Molly: Right, sorry.
RDF1: Okay, girls. I'll finish up before the summer is over. We'll be out of your hair soon enough.
Pyros: That is if he doesn't mess up and go to yet another fic.
RDF1: Pyros!
Pyros: I mean, seriously: He's got his Code: Lyoko Chapter 5 about halfway done, give or take some lines, but he's not ANYWHERE NEAR updating it. And don't get me started on Naruto. He hasn't even begun to get his couples together. So, if he messes up and breaks apart your world, don't come crying to us, just beat up on him.
Eva: I think we need to have a chat.
Molly: Do you mind inviting the others, DragonX?
RDF1: Allow me, ladies.
RedDragonForce 1 snaps his fingers and 2 portals open up. Rika, Renamon, Jeri, and Alice came out of the Digimon Portal, and Rose and Trixie came out of the other portal.
Pyros was sweating now.
Pyros: Now, hold on. I didn't insult Jeri, Alice, OR Trixie, what are they doing here?
Dx: I didn't want them to feel left out.
Rika: I think we should let them go first, what do you think Rose?
Rose: Yes, why let them wait to vent their anger?
Renamon: We need to keep PyroDragoon alive, so we can torture him again, and that he can STILL help RDF1 with his fics.
Dx: I'll watch over Pyros.
RDF1: You do that.
The girls start beating up on PyroDragoon.
Thanks for everything.
Later,
RDF1
