Inferno
Chapter 2
By Secret7
The flame clashed with the ice, burning and searing and melting. He laughed. All he did was hold his arm out and fire shot forth from it. He laughed as Blossom struggled to keep the long beam of ice intact. And he was surprised. The girl's human ambition was much more powerful than he thought. Blaze was actually afraid. He turned on burning fire to full blast, and it began to engulf the girl. Blossom, he had heard her be called. But she hadn't given up. She had fought and fought till the end. Maybe that's why he'd been defeated in the end. The power of humanity...
The memories still didn't make sense. He understood little of what did manage to figure out. He was human, wasn't he? He sat in the ash coated remains of the hospital. He knew that he had to warn them. Before the dark three would return...
"So..." Blossom began.
She circled the other kids, smiling.
"Duck..."
She hovered over Mitch.
"Duck..."
She hovered by Robyn.
"Duck..."
She hovered by Elmer.
"GOOSE!" She yelled, over Buttercup.
Buttercup jumped up, her eyes filled with rage.
"You're gonna PAY for that one!" She yelled, then quickly took off.
Life had returned to normal. Relatively. It was still a little abnormal, going to a newly rebuilt Pokey Oaks Kindergarten. And Townsville was in less peril, partly because it was already half destroyed. The villains just stopped coming, knowing that they'd been beat.
They hovered swiftly through the playground, Blossom speeding quickly. She felt a brief bit of cold around her, as if she...
"C'mon, Bloss! Afraid to catch me?"
"Heck no!" she yelled, and flew as fast as she knew how to. Everything was a blur. Except for her one target: Buttercup.
She zoomed past the blur, and flew into Buttercup, tackling her to the ground. "HAH!" Laughed Blossom. "YOU...ARE...IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever, leader-girl. You are SO dead ."
"You can't pick me again! I've already been Goosed!" Blossom sneered.
Buttercup growled as she began to circle the group.
Bubbles is just BEGGING to be goosed... she thought to herself, walking around, repeating "Duck..." As she reached Bubbles, her anticipation doubled. YES! She is SO Goose!
"Goos--" Buttercup began, just as the Recess bell rang. "WHAT????" she yelled. "Oh well! You're goose anyway, Bubbles!"
"But I don't wanna be a goose!" Bubbles pleaded.
"Too bad." Buttercup declared, turning her back on Bubbles.
Bubbles burst into tears.
"Buttercup! At least let her be an osprey!" Blossom demanded.
"Fine. I think she deserved to be goosed, personally." She tagged Bubbles. "Osprey," she said reluctantly.
"YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!" Bubbles shouted.
"..."
"Guys, what's an Osprey?" asked Bubbles timidly.
"Forget it." Buttercup muttered, floating inside.
The moment they did, Ms. Keane pointed to the hotline phone.
"It was ringing as you guys came in. You better call the Mayor just in case," Ms. Keane said.
"OK." all three said.
All three girls grabbed the phone.
"Let me answer it!" Bubbles yelled.
"I should! I never get to answer!" Buttercup shouted.
"Well, I AM the leader!" Blossom retorted.
"Yeah, and you, the leader, went homicidal."
There was silence. Blossom looked like she was holding back tears.
"You can pick it up." Buttercup said quietly.
"H-Hello?" asked Blossom.
"Yes, this is the Mayor! Townsville is in some serious trouble! Mojo has gone psycho! He's trying to destroy everything, especially you three! Hurry! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"
Blossom smiled weakly. "The more things change, the more they stay the same."
"WHY DID YOU DO IT??????" screamed Mojo, up in the Robo Jojo. He nearly blasted Buttercup to smithereens.
"Do what?" asked Buttercup.
"YOU DESTROYED THEM!" he yelled back, grabbing Bubbles with his claw. "YOU DESTROYED MY SONS!"
"It...wasn't us!" Bubbles gasped.
"THEN WHO ELSE COULD IT BE????" he shouted back. "Crazy little Blossom????"
Blossom's face tightened. "Don't say that again."
"Say what?" asked Mojo spitefully. "CRAZY...LITTLE...BLOSSOM!"
Blossom stared coldly at Mojo. Unrelentingly. She grinned.
"You're about to get the beating of your life. If you live through it." Blossom said, smirking.
"What're you doing, Blossom?" asked Bubbles, still tight in the grip of the Robo Jojo's claw.
Blossom didn't answer. She closed her eyes. She started to moan.
"Uhhhhh...AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" she suddenly shouted. Her hair began to turn white.
"Oh my god..." Buttercup muttered.
Blossom's eyes turned the dark blue they were before. She floated before Mojo.
"Blossom...what happened? Did...what...huh?"
"What?" shrugged Blossom. "So I still know a couple of those tricks."
Bubbles and Buttercup stared at Blossom. It was a nightmare come true.
TO BE CONTINUED.
