Chapter 11: It's time to be a hero
Catboy couldn't believe his eyes.
Amaya... Owlette... the girl he loved...
... was kissing Night Ninja.
The cat hero felt his eye twitching, and Gekko gagged in response to the kiss.
"Aw..." Luna Girl sighed, "How romantic."
Romeo rolled his eyes, "Big deal, I'm ready for the cake."
As for Night Ninja himself, first he blushed (Though it was barely noticeable because of his mask), and then he fist pumped the air, laughing loudly and maniacally, "YES! IT'S OFFICIAL NOW! AMAYA IS MINE! ALL MINE!"
At that moment, Catboy... felt defeated. It was done. Amaya was Night Ninja's now. He... actually won. And the PJ Masks... actually lost. Suddenly, Catboy lost any courage he had built up to tell Amaya how he felt. What was the point? He had lost this battle...
After his little celebration, Night Ninja smirked at Amaya, who smiled back, "That was... amazing... and with that out of the way-"
The ninja then noticed something as he stared closely. Looking into the reflection of Amaya's glasses... he noticed Gekko reaching for her pajamas. "What the- NINJALINOS! Grab that lizard!" He demanded as he turned around.
The Ninjalinos jumped into action, but they were too slow for Gekko as he grabbed the pajamas, and surprisingly, her bracelet was with it, "Amaya, catch!" With that, he threw the clothes over to his friend, who jumped up high and caught them, "Got it!"
Catboy was confused. What was going on?
Before Night Ninja could comprehend what was going on, Amaya soon had her pajamas and bracelet on!
Amaya becomes... Owlette-
Suddenly, as her transformation ended, Owlette fell to the ground instead of flying, groaning in pain. Due to the injuries put upon her by Night Ninja, she suddenly felt weaker than ever. She struggled to stand up, and thankfully had enough strength to use her wings to blow away the Ninjalinos that were holding Catboy.
"Thanks..." He said. Owlette began to hug him tightly, "Did I fool you?" She asked.
"Huh?
"What is going on?!" Night Ninja demanded, clearly confused.
The owl hero smirked at him, "Don't you see? I fooled you all. I was only pretended to fall in love with you, Night Ninja, as to give Gekko the chance to get my pajamas.
Now it all makes sense. Catboy was relieved, but Night Ninja was furious, "You... you... BIRD BRAIN! You tricked me! That was clever, but you still kissed me! You still said I do! So you're still all mine!"
"I'll never be yours, Night Ninja." Owlette told him, plain and simple, "You won't take good care of me, you hurt me, and you expect me to respect you. Nobody's gonna respect someone who hurts them. Think about Natalie. She wants your respect, but all you do is hit her."
"Natalie?" Gekko asked.
"Who?" Catboy also asked.
The evil ninja sighed, took a deep breath... and spoke.
"She's... my little sister. My Imoto."
All three PJ Masks gasped. Sister? Night Ninja had a sister. Owlette thought about it, before realizing something, "Wait a minute... Oniichan... it meets big brother in Japanese... no wonder Natalie called you that. You're her big brother."
"That's right..." Night Ninja confirmed. "We were orphaned after the loss of our Mom and Dad... the orphanage who took us in mistreated us, and I couldn't take it... so we fled... and we came here... where we stayed ever since. And I took it upon myself to take care of her... and she needs to learn how to respect me."
"But what good will that do if all you do is hurt her. She can't respect you if you keep doing that." Owlette pointed out.
"What else am I suppose to do?! She needs discipline."
"But that's not the right way to do it. All it does is make her scared of you!"
"ENOUGH!" Night Ninja was close to exploding, "Enough of all this talk about my sister! I came here to claim you as my princess, and I won't stop until I get what I WANT!"
Catboy jumped in front of his owl friend and shielded her from the villain in front of them, "You will never have Owlette! And if you want to try, you'll have to get through me to do that!" He told him.
Night Ninja then smirked, "Okay. Let's make it a challenge. You, kitty-boy, and I will fight, and whoever wins gets the girl!"
The cat hero gulped. Could he even take accept this challenge? He wasn't as advanced and or experienced in Martial Arts like Night Ninja was. He may have speed, agility, and smarts, but he wasn't much a fight. None of the Masks were. He looked back at Owlette, who was also confused about this decision.
But... it seemed like he had no choice. Besides, if he refused, that nasty ninja could most likely resort to another drastic measure. So after thinking it over, Catboy made his decision.
"I accept your challenge Night Ninja."
"But Catboy, what if you lose?" Gekko asked with worry.
"Don't worry, I won't."
Night Ninja chuckled, "Very well, let the challenge begin!" With that, he jumped up high as he threw a punch towards Catboy. But the feline hero was quick as he used his speed to dodge the blow.
"It's time to be a hero! Super Cat Jump!"
He jumped up high himself, in an effort to give the ninja a fierce kick. But said ninja grabbed his foot and threw him to the wall. Catboy fell to the ground with a groan, but he wasn't going to give up that easily. He got up and tackled Night Ninja when he was caught off guard, resulting in the two boys to wrestle around on the floor.
While all of this was going on, the Ninjalinos were cheering their leading off, Romeo wasn't paying any attention as he was helping himself to the food on the table, Luna Girl was just waiting for the bouquet to be thrown, Gekko was cheering for Catboy.
As for Owlette... she just watched in silence. She was hoping that Catboy would win this challenge. But at the same time, she also knew that Night Ninja was a martial arts expert, so he clearly had a better advantage, which was bad.
"Please win this, Catboy..." She said quietly, "I believe in you..."
After a few more minutes of wrestling, Night Ninja kicked Catboy off of him, now extremely furious as he grabbed his his nunchucks, "Enough fooling around, it's time I end this once and for all!"
Owlette gasped, "No!"
Before Catboy could even escape, the evil ninja began whacking the hero all of with his weapon, causing him to cry out in pain. Owlette and Gekko wanted to help, but some Ninjalinos were holding them back.
As for Catboy himself, he struggled to get away, but he kept getting hit over and over. At this point, would he even survive? He could never tell Owlette his feelings if he died?
"I've had it with you, pussy cat!" Night Ninja growled, raising his nunchucks over his head, "And now you're gonna get what you deserve-"
"NOOOOOO! STOP ONIICHAN!"
Everyone froze in confusion, until they turned to the door... it was Natalie, much to Owlette's delight, and Night Ninja's dismay, "Natalie, what are you-"
He didn't get to finish his sentence when the little girl ran up to him, and hugged him tightly, "No more, Oniichan. No more fighting... please..." She whimpered, "I don't want you to fight..."
"But I'm just trying to teach this cat a lesson."
"But that's animal abuse... I just want you to be here for me..."
Night Ninja just looked at her, at a sudden lost at what to do... Natalie was his sister, and it was his job to protect her... but he wanted to finished what he had just started at the same time. He didn't know what to do!
That's when Owlette spoke up, "Night Ninja... Natalie needs you... she loves you... and yet you hit her... and if you know what's good for the both of you... you'd end this whole thing and take care of her like you should..."
"I DO take care of her... I try to protect her from crazies that could hurt her!"
"Like you do?"
The ninja was about to fire back, but then took a moment to let all what the owl heroine sink his. In a way, and as much as he hated to admit it... she was right. He wasn't doing the job of taking care of his sister... his Imoto...
"Think about it Night Ninja... who do you love more... me? The Ninjalinos? Or Natalie?" Owlette asked.
He took yet another moment to think about that. Who did he love the most? Owlette was beautiful, and graceful. The Ninjalinos were stupid, but loyal. But Natalie... she was beautiful, graceful, and loyal. Why did it take him just now to realize that?
"I... I... I love..."
He trailed off, as the others in the room to await his answer. Catboy hoped that his answer wasn't going to be the girl he loved himself.
"I love... Natalie... the most."
Night Ninja just chuckled slightly as he turned to the little girl by his side, "I'm so sorry that I treated you so wrong. I just wanted you to respect me and do what I wanted since it's just us now. But what I've been doing was hurting you. And if I continued, I'd might've killed you. But for now on... I will treated you like a princess. To me, you are my ninja princess."
Natalie gasped with happiness, as she hugged her older brother tightly, "I love you, I love you, I love you, I LOVE YOU, Oniichan! Nathan!" She squealed.
Nathan?
So he had an actual name.
With that, the evil ninja spoke, "Okay, now. The wedding is off! I have what I need!"
"Aw..." The Ninjalinos moaned in disappointment.
"I don't care. The food is delicious." Romeo replied.
"What about the bouquet?!" Luna Girl asked, "What a rip!"
As for the PJ Masks... they looked on with a smile to see Night Ninja reconcile with his little sister, Owlette especially. She was glad that this was possible, and maybe she didn't need to help Natalie after all. She was safe with her brother, as long as he promised to protect her like the guardian he should be.
Catboy got up and hugged Owlette tightly, "I'm so glad your safe, Owlette. But you're still hurt." He said as he looked at his injuries. The owl hero nodded, "I know... but... it's over now. Everything is over now. Let's go home."
"And let's get you to a hospital." Gekko added.
But before they left, Night Ninja spoke, "Um... PJ Pests... thanks, Owlette. For helping me realize that I should be focusing on..."
Owlette smiled in response, before he continued, "But don't think that this is the end of us. Because I will always come back in the night! You haven't seen the last of me!"
But the Masks just shook their heads as they walked out the door (With Catboy offering to carry Owlette so she wouldn't have to walk). But that's when Owlette grabbed the bouquet of flowers and threw it over her head.
The Ninjalinos scrambled to grab the flowers, but Luna Girl beat them all to it, by flying on her Luna board, "Ha! Got it! That's what I was waiting for all this time!" She cheered.
"Aw..." The ninja minions moaned once more.
Aw! Happy ending!
Well, not exactly, there's still one more chapter after this. But all is well. Night Ninja realized who the person in his life is the most important to him, and Owlette actually managed to save herself by knocking some sense into this nasty ninja. Next chapter, we'll see Connor and Maya speaking one on one. Will Connor actually take the chance to tell her how he feels about her? We shall see in the finale of When a Cat Loves an Owl! I'll see you guys later, and as always, don't forget to review, please! Thank you!
