Chapter 13 – This Is It
They had finally made it out of the abbey.
Hilary and Emily had managed to overthrow the computer system – well, after Katt had made it rain throughout the entire building, even inside.
After half an hour of trying to help all seven tired and wounded girls back to the BBA, so they could be checked over, all seven had passed out through exhaustion.
Kai laid Suzy gently on her bed, frowning as he saw her shiver. He wrapped his arms around her, while picking her up again gently. He pulled back the covers quickly with one hand, before laying her back down again. He smiled down at her lovingly, and covered her up again.
Lee sighed as he watched Katt's face twist in and out of pain and calm sleeping. He brushed black and blue bangs from her closed eyes, and kissed her sweetly on the lips.
He set her down on her own bed, and put a blanket over her just in case.
Michael grinned sadly as he set his unofficial little sister down on her own bed as well.
Robert did the same with Kasi, kissed her on the forehead and left again.
Rei brought Mariah up, and Tyson, of all people, took Hilary. Ozuma and Joseph helped Miriam up to the room as well, before Joseph left his sister and team captain alone again. Ozuma kissed her hand gently, before leaving her to sleep.
Dunga, Spencer and Jess decided to keep watch over the seven girls that night.
'Pst! Spencer! Dunga! D'you hear something? By the window?' whispered Jess.
'Jess, we're on the fifth floor here, and it's three in the morning – hey, I hear it too…' Dunga trailed off. Spencer nodded as well.
'It sounds like someone's climbing or scratching at the window.' He said. Jess nodded.
'Not a window, though.' She told them. Both boys stared at her.
'How'd you know?' they both asked her. Jess smirked.
'Me, Katt and Ici – me and Katt especially – used to use windows to get in. I got used to hearing people scratching on windows and climbing. I can hear it really clearly as well.' She explained.
There was a groan from one of the beds.
'Yeah, me too, Jess. Wha-What time is it? And why do I feel like somebody's broken every bone in my body?'
Jess grinned.
'That's because you probably came close to that mark, Katt.' She told her battered and dazed sister.
'Oh fuckit, now I remember, the abbey, huh?' she said, sitting up so they could see her more clearly. She still wore her patrol clothes that Mariah had recovered for her.
'Yes, Katt, the abbey.' Jess said with the air of someone who wanted to be patient, but didn't really have time to be. Katt nodded, before looking down at Spencer and Dunga.
'Why are there two boys in the room?' she asked. Jess rolled her eyes.
'Because we're guarding you, Katt. Now shut up! There's something at the window…' she said, turning back to the window. Katt bit her lip.
'Hold up…AHH! Oh wait; it's just an ugly Chozetti…' Katt trailed off calmly, whilst the other three stared at the gruesome demon on the other side of the glass.
'Urr, Katt? Could ya get rid of it for us? We don't have superpowers.' Jess said sheepishly. Katt grinned and nodded.
With a shattering of glass, several roars, lots of yells, and one big "SPLAT!" Katt got rid of the Chozetti. She waved "bye-bye" to its remains as they fell towards the ground, before getting caught up by the wind, flying far and away.
'All gone!' she said dismissively as she turned back to the other three. Spencer snorted.
'And we thought we'd be guarding you lot.' He muttered with a smile.
The next day, the girls decided to have a meeting, shutting everyone else out, using their powers, and Katt and Kasi's knowledge of locks.
'We need to end this.' Mariah stated bluntly. Suzy, Katt, Kasi, Miriam, Emily and Hilary all nodded sadly.
'But how? We can't just give up the gems!' Suzy exclaimed. Miriam frowned. Emily did as well.
'You have a plan.' She stated, looking pointedly at Miriam. The other girls looked at them both, before turning to Miriam.
She sighed. 'Well, the darkness will surely get hold of them if we just dump them…but if we destroyed them, they wouldn't be able to fall into the wrong hands ever again! Sure, we'd loose our powers, but the darkness wouldn't be able to get the powers, and with the technology of today, the things that could be done with all that power is terrible.' She said wisely.
The others all nodded.
'So how do we destroy them properly?' Kasi asked calmly. Miriam sighed.
'Smash them. They'll glow, until they're completely destroyed, or so a book I once read said.' She told them sadly. Katt nodded.
'So, is this it? Do we destroy them?' she asked. There was silence.
'It's for the best. We'd still be friends, and its not like we're hurting anyone else, right?' asked Suzy. Miriam shook her head.
'We might feel funny for a little while, but it'll wear away.' She said with a small smile. Suzy nodded mutely.
'…So, are we agreed?' asked Mariah after a while.
They all nodded.
'We don't have a choice.' Emily said with a shrug.
'It could never last forever, really.' Hilary added with a smile.
'It was fun while it lasted.' Katt agreed.
'It's best for us and everyone else.' Kasi said firmly.
'We'll finally be normal again.' Suzy added quietly.
'At least it'll stop the darkness.' Miriam finished in a whisper.
She conjured up a heavy rock, and placed her gem on the floor, in the middle of the circle they were sat in.
Kasi, Katt, Suzy, Mariah, Emily and Hilary put their gems in as well, the points of each gem pointing towards the centre together.
'All together, or one at a time?' Katt asked shakily.
'One at a time. We should each finish it ourselves.' Hilary decided.
They all nodded, and took back their gems, putting them in a separate space each.
Kasi took the rock and swallowed her fear.
'Here I go.' She told them quietly, bringing the rock up, holding it for a second, before slamming it down onto the Ruby gem.
Kasi quickly lifted the rock again, to see the gem had shattered evenly, spread out in a circle, as if it had been shattered form the centre.
Kasi gasped as a red light streamed out of her mouth, darting up from the shattered remains of the gem, disappearing into the air.
Katt slammed the rock onto her Opal gem, watching and gasping as the same happened to her. A blue light came from her mouth.
Suzy took it next, throwing the rock onto her own Diamond gem. A green light came from her mouth.
Miriam used her power to levitate the rock into her hands, where she calmly slammed it onto her Emerald gem. Her light was a red-brown colour.
Mariah took it next, pushing it onto her Amethyst gem. A bright pink light flew from her mouth.
Finally, Hilary took the rock, taking a deep breath, before slamming it onto her precious Sapphire. A purple light came from her mouth, disappearing like all the others.
The girls wavered there for a few seconds, whipping round as the door burst open.
The bladers rushed in, thinking the girls had let them in, their eyes widening as they saw the girls fainting suddenly.
They gasped when they saw the gems' remains, quickly carrying the unconscious girls away, none daring to touch the gems.
A few minutes later, the girls came to, smiling.
'We did it.' Whispered Suzy, well aware the bladers were all around them. Mariah nodded.
'Yeah…the gems are gone.' She agreed. Emily sighed.
'Now what?' she asked glumly. Kasi, Hilary and Miriam all sat up, smiling as well.
'Dunno.' They replied quietly. Katt sat up, grinning evilly. All eyes turned to her at once.
'Anyone for popcorn?' she asked sweetly.
'KATT!'
The girls began reaching behind them for the cushions previously under their heads, throwing them at the cackling Morgan.
'What? I answered the question, didn't I?' she defended innocently.
Laughter was heard around Robert's Manor.
They had won, and the war was over.
