Ok, so, if you couldn't tell, I'm back!! The trip to New York was awesome!! We saw the Tim Burton exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art, and we saw the Addams Family Broadway musical! Ah, but now back to reality, well…not really. I mean, I'm writing about an element bender and a cryptid controlling kid, etc. Not exactly reality, but I really wish it was…*sigh*. Ok, so sorry about my rant! Time to get back with the story. I don't own the Secret Saturdays, but I do own my OC's.
Finding Robbie
Part Two: Elements
"Wait! So…are you sure he's your brother!?" Zak said
"Yeah…pretty sure." I said
"Ok…so should we catch him, or go tell Doc, Drew, and everyone else?" Doyle said
"Um…we should split up. Here" I handed Doyle and Zak communicators, "Turn these on, and we should be able to contact each other incase we see Robbie. Doyle; you go tell everyone that we found Robbie. Bring Drew, Lacey, and…I guess Beeman to help." Doyle ran towards the direction where everyone was working on the airship, "Ok, so Zak; you and I are going to go find Robbie." I said
"Ok…where should we look?" Zak asked
"Well, maybe we could try looking in the direction that he ran…" I said
"Ok, no need for sarcasm…so how do we get up there?" Zak said
"You do remember that I bend all of the elements, right?" I said
"Oh yeah." Zak said
We ran towards the building that Robbie earth bended the wall.
"Wow, your brother left a huge mark in the wall…" Zak said
"Yeah…I think it's more than just a mark. Very impressive Robbie, very impressive…Ok, so hold on, Zak!" I said
"Hold on!? What are you…AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zak said. I cut him off when I sent us flying up to the top of the building, "Why didn't we just take the same path that Robbie took!? Why did you have to…air bend? Were you air bending!?" Zak said
"Yeah, I was." I said
"Why?" Zak asked
"I don't know. Just in an air bending mood I guess…" I said
We wandered around, jumping from rooftop to rooftop and looking for Robbie. After we wandered around about half of the town, we found Drew, Lacey, Doyle, and Beeman.
"Zak, you think we should go join them?" I asked
"Yeah, the more people searching, the better…" Zak said
"Ok, so hold on again." I said
"Why?" Zak said
"Zak, this building's like, 10 stories. I'm not letting you jump down from it. Jump to another rooftop; yes, jump to the ground; no. I can make an earth platform this time…" I said
"Ok!" Zak said
I made a platform from the roof where Zak and I were standing. There were people looking up at us because of the fact that we were now levitating part of their ceiling.
"Sorry!" I said to the people who used to be below the roof.
"Um…let's just go before we freak them out anymore…" Zak suggested
"Ok. Hold on!" I said
I levitated Zak and myself down the building that we were on top of. We ran to catch up to Lacey, Drew, Beeman, and Doyle.
"Wait up guys!" Zak yelled while running after everyone.
"Zak, wait!" I yelled
"Oh, hey guys. Did you see where Robbie went?" Doyle asked
"No, we didn't find him. Did you guys fix the airship?" I asked
"No. Not yet, but Lori, Hayley, and Kate are still working on fixing it." Drew said
"You left them to fix an airship!?" Lacey and I said
"Yeah…" Drew said
"What were you thinking!?" I asked
"They can't even build legos!! And those have the little indents already in them!!" Lacey said
"Why isn't Doc helping them!?" I asked
"Doc is repairing the computers in the airship. The computers crashed during the emergency landing." Drew said
"Ok, just expect the airship to be in a couple pieces when we get back…" I said
"Um…guys, what's that?" Lacey said while pointing to a creature running along the sidewalk.
"That…would be a rock monster…which means that Robbie might be controlling it!" I said
"Ok, then what should we do?" Zak asked
"Follow it!" I said while running toward the monster.
We all chased the monster around town, until we ran into an alleyway with a dead end.
"Ok, so now where do we go?" Doyle asked
"I'll tell you where to go; no where." Robbie said while putting a cage around us from bending the sidewalk.
"Nice line, you buy it at the dollar store?" I said
"Very funny. Now tell me why you were chasing my monster!" Robbie said
"No. Nice form though. Strong cage, a little more support around the edges would be helpful, but not bad, not bad at all…" I said
"Why are you critiquing my sidewalk cage!?" Robbie said
"She does stuff like that a lot." Zak said
"Ok, so, I'll ask again; who are you, and why are you people here!?" Robbie said
"What are you talking about, Green?" Beeman said
"Green?" Robbie asked
"Yeah, you have a green streak in your hair, a green shirt, and green shoelaces. Author tends to nickname people based on their appearances and abilities. Although, 'green' is one of his worse nicknames…but, I'm Yin, that's Drew, Zak, Doyle, Lacey, and Author." I said to Robbie
"Author!? Since when do you call me Author, Pyro?" Beeman asked
"See, that's what I'm talking about. He calls me Pyro because of my ability, and in turn, I call him pinky because of his glasses." I said to Robbie
"Nice…but, why are his glasses pink?" Robbie asked me
"Not quite sure…" I said
"Am I no longer here!?" Beeman asked
"Yeah, yeah, that's nice Pinky. Um…Yin?" Robbie said
"Yup, that's my name." I said
"Ok, so Yin, what exactly is your ability that you have the nickname for?" Robbie asked me
"Normally, I would say that you wouldn't believe me, but you just earth bended. So…I'll tell you. I'm an element bender too." I said
"Really!? Prove it…" Robbie said
"Well…sure." I said as I earth bended the cage back into the sidewalk.
"Ok…I believe you, but that doesn't have to do with fire…" Robbie said to me
"Oh yeah, that's just one element. I bend fire, water, earth, air, metal, wood, and darkness. Pinky calls me Pyro because I tend to like fire the most." I said
"Wait, why can't you bend light?" Robbie asked me
"Well, I chose dark over light. Originally, I could bend both, but see, darkness and light are complete opposites. I mean, fire and water are opposites, but darkness and light are just too opposite. When I could bend them both, I really couldn't handle it. I mean, I was really young when I chose, but I was always contradicting myself and I was sometimes bipolar. It just got really, really frustrating after a while, so…I gave up one of the elements." I said
"How do you give up an element!?" Robbie asked me
"It's a long, painful story. I'll tell you later, maybe. For now, how many elements can you bend?" I asked Robbie
"Three; earth, wood, and metal." Robbie said
"Ok, so…mom could bend four elements, I can bend seven, and Robbie can bend three. Why can I bend the combined amounts of their elements though…?" I said to myself under my breath.
"Um, hello? What are you talking about?" Robbie asked me
"Oh, nothing." I said
"Ok, so…can you tell me?" Robbie asked
"What?" I asked
"What you were just saying." Robbie said
"No, that's really none of your business…" I said
"I think it is." Robbie said
"And why do you think that?" I asked
"Because it should be." Robbie said
"I'm sorry, but no. No, it isn't." I said
"Do you want to fight or something!?" Robbie said while taking off his jacket and getting in a fighting stance.
"Wow, you're really quick tempered…" I said
"You little…" Robbie stopped talking and threw a punch at my rib cage. I caught his hand, twisted his wrist, and he screamed out in pain.
"Yeah, don't try to fight me. Trust me, you won't win." I said
"It's true." Doyle and Zak said
"Can you let go of my wrist!?" Robbie asked
"Oh, sorry. Oh, I see you still have the scar…I'm sorry about that." I said
"How do you know about my scar!?" Robbie asked
"Robbie, I was there when you got it. I was the one who healed most of it for you…" I said
"Ok, then…prove it. How did I get the scar?" Robbie asked
"I highly doubt that you would remember, but…I was being held up at gun point, and you decided to save me and got shot." I said
"That's right, but…how do I know that I was saving you. I still don't completely believe your sister claim…" Robbie said
"Ok, here's your life with me. I raised you when our mother died when you were being born. I raised you three years, so…you were only three when that happened! How do you remember that so clearly!? You were three!! I left you at your step-mom's doorstep just so you couldn't remember!" I said
"You, you left me!?" Robbie said
"I did it for your own good, Robbie. I just wanted you to grow up living a normal life, and not have to have your sister be your mother too…" I said
"Ok, I don't care if you did it for my own good or not, you leaving me didn't help much!!" Robbie yelled
"Robbie, I know you're angry, but please try to understand that…" I was cut off by Robbie earth bending a bolder at me, which sent me flying into the alley wall. "Ow…what was that for, I mean…oh, no…" Robbie's eyes were glowing green as he was levitating boulders around him. "Robbie, just try to understand. Don't let your anger take control, and…" Robbie cut me off again by throwing a bolder at me, which sent me flying through the wall. "Ok, thanks for the help guys…"
"I thought we weren't supposed to interfere…" Beeman said
"I didn't say that. And even if I did, now would be the exception. Come on guys, I really don't want to have to fight my brother; well I don't want to hurt him. You block his attacks while I try to reason with him, ok?" I said
"Ok." Zak said
"Ready?" I asked
"Yup." Lacey said
"Ok, so here he comes." They all blocked Robbie's attacks while I tried to reason with him. It didn't work though, and Robbie knocked Zak unconscious. "Ok, I'm sorry about this Robbie, but it's for you own good…" I made a shield of fire around Robbie.
"What, what are you doing!?" Robbie asked
"This is the only way I can think of that'll get you to listen to me…I'm sorry, Robbie." I said
"Ok, so…what do you want?" Robbie asked
"You to come with us…" I said
"What!?" Everyone said
"Do you have a family?" I said, ignoring everyone's reaction.
"I do, I did. I ran away a while ago…I can tell you later, maybe." Robbie said
"Ok, so…do you want to come back with us?" I asked
"Sure. Where do you live?" Robbie asked
"On the west coast, but usually we live on an airship." I said
"Ok." Robbie said
We all walked back to the airship, which was by no means repaired yet. I introduced Robbie to everyone, and then we all helped to fix the airship. I didn't tell Robbie that Lori, Hayley, Lacey, and Kate are his sisters. And I didn't tell them that he's their brother. Lacey was there when I told him that he's my brother, so I think she knows. She won't say anything though.
We all got on the airship after it had been repaired, and we flew off back home. I can't help but wonder though; was it really a good idea for us to bring Robbie with us? I mean, he knocked Zak unconscious, and he clearly can't control his anger…I guess I'll just have to work with him about that…
Author's Note
I don't really have a note this time… but, I have actually already started writing the next chapter of this story, so it should be done really soon.
