Who Am I?
In a prison, Ryan was sitting on his bed looking down. The door opened and someone stood at the exit looking at Ryan. Ryan looked up is a small smile.
"Oh, you came?"
In another cell, Ariel was looking out the window of her cell when the person came and opened her cell.
"It's about time," she said, "I didn't think you of all people would get me out of this dump."
Outside the prison, the doors burst open and Centaurus Flame and Delphinus Ice walked out together. Delphinus Ice stretched as Centaurus Flame cracked his neck.
"So Issac must be ready to activate it," Centaurus Flame said.
"This means we get our revenge on that little bitch Zero!" Delphinus Ice added. The two of them disappeared going onto the Wave Road.
Elsewhere in a forest, Issac, High Max, and Kitty were on their way to an old temple. In the heart of the temple was what looked like a control panel of sorts. Issac took what looked like a white Hunter VG out and pushed a button on it.
"Wizard On!" he said, only what materialized wasn't a sentient Wizard. Instead it was a white key that looked like a cross. When it glowed the large red crystal in the center of the room started glowing. Issac just laughed looking at their goal reaching fruition. Now they just needed one final piece...
The power source...
Luna decided to go to school the next day. She figured she had spent enough time away from school, but she however still want to keep her distance from her friends. She walked into school, her hair out tied in a red ribbon instead of it's normal style, dark red lip stick instead of her normal rose red shade, shorter skirt and fishnet stockings, and finally black boots. It was a strange look on Luna, and while it looked really hot, it just wasn't Luna.
When she walked past Bud and Zack's lockers (right next to each other) they had to stop and look at her in shock.
"P, Prez?" Zack asked, Luna ignoring her. Bud walked after her and stood next to her locker while she got her books.
"Um, you okay Prez?" he asked.
"Fine," Luna said curtly walking off to her first class. Bud was too afraid to approach her again, so he just stood there and watched her proceed to her classroom. Zack walked up to him.
"She's anything but fine," Zack said, Bud nodding in agreement.
In her homeroom, she sat in her usual seat next to Solo, who took notice to the new look and tried not to care, only to once again fail miserably.
"Any particular reason you suddenly became a goth?" he asked harshly, only to get silence from Luna, "Fine, don't tell me." As homeroom went on, Luna was more and more silent, actually making Solo aggravated since he was used to her bad attempts at small talk.
"Okay, this is silly," Solo said, "I'm not one to really care if you talk or not but this is getting on my nerves! What the hell happened?"
"You don't care," Luna said as the bell rang, "So why even explain?" she got up and walked to her next class. Solo just standing there confused as hell.
In Math Class, Pat was watching Luna from his usual desk behind her. He knew something was wrong, and not just because Bud and Zack told him. He could just feel it, like her energy was off. He worked on his worksheet for a little while when he got an Email on his Hunter VG. When he opened it it read...
You see her, right? She won't talk to me, or anyone else, but you seem to have a way of getting her to open up. Can you try to talk to her?
Xerox
Pat nodded and then went back to his worksheet, deciding on the best time to confront her.
When school ended Luna was about to leave when she got an Email on her Hunter VG:
Meet me on the roof, it's really important.
Patrick Springs
Luna groaned, she really didn't want to talk to anyone right now, but Pat she couldn't ignore even if she tried.
On the roof of the school Luna walked around looking for Pat.
"I'm glad you could make it," she heard behind her. She turned and saw Pat standing in front of the elevator, as if blocking her way out.
"What is it Pat?" Luna asked curtly.
"Talk to me Luna. What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I'm a teenage girl, I go through stuff, big deal."
"So, what's with the darker look?"
"So I changed my appearance, so what?"
"So, it isn't you, not the Luna I know," when he said that Luna reacted a bit.
"How do you know, how do I know? Maybe this is me, maybe the only real me is Zero, I don't know anything anymore!" she apparently didn't expect to start crying, but she did, and Pat was getting a little confused. Sure he knew something was wrong with Luna, but he didn't know what. Was this why she missed a whole week of school? He walked over to her and took her hand.
"Luna, what happened? Can't you at least talk me?" Pat asked sweetly. Luna looked up at Pat, remembering that even before she met Kitty, Pat was her best friend, and he had always been there for her. She then broke down and told Pat everything: the photo Xerox found and what it meant, what Harpuia had been saying, that Kitty was Lynx, and that she wanted to break their Brother Band. The sun was setting by the time they had finished talking.
"Wow, that's a lot," Pat said.
"I don't know what to think anymore. I don't know who my real parents are, and my current parents never told me any of this. Also the whole thing with Kitty just left a bad taste in my mouth. She and I were so close, and now I find out that we're enemies, that we've been enemies since the very beginning."
"I don't believe that for a second." Pat said catching Luna's attention, "Sure, Zero and Lynx were enemies, but Kitty didn't know that you were Zero. That friendship was legitimate, I know."
"So why does she want to end it?"
"Does she? If she really wanted to end your friendship then she could have broken the Brother Band herself," he held up his Hunter VG, showing Kitty's picture, "But she didn't. I bet Bud and Sonia both have heir Brother Bands with Kitty intact too," Pat looked up at the sky, "I remember when I first met Geo, and Rey had tricked me into hurting Geo, right when I had made my Brother Band with him. Geo could have hated me for it, but he didn't. It took a while, but we worked through it. I only saw Geo in person one time after that, and that was after Rey and I decided to try to work together. When I saw Geo it was like seeing an old friend. We laughed, we talked, we even had a friendly Wave Battle. True friends never go away. I know that Geo and I are true friends, and I know that you and Kitty are true friends too."
"Pat..." Luna looked down, still unsure of how to fix it.
"As for the issue of who you are," Pat continued, "You should confront your parents on the issue," Pat then turned to Luna, "but no matter what you're Luna Platz. That's your name now, and that's the only name besides Zero I know that's yours," Pat smiled sweetly, making Luna's heart at ease. She leaned into Pat and he wrapped his arms around her. Just then Luna's Hunter VG went off.
"Hello?" she asked activating the phone. The holographic image showed Centaurus Flame.
"I had no idea that you of all people was Zero," he said, shocking both Luna and Pat.
"Ryan?" Luna asked.
"How did you get this number?" Pat added.
"That's not important Gemini Spark. What is important is that I have something of Luna's that she would be very interested in," Centaurus Flame moved to the side revealing Mr. and Mrs. Platz tied up against a wall. Luna and Pat were horrified.
"Mom! Dad!" Luna cried out as Pat closed his eyes letting Rey take over.
"Who the hell takes hostages!" Rey demanded, making Centaurus Flame laugh.
"I see, so that's how Gemini Spark can split in two, interesting. Rest assured I'm not as revenge bent as Ariel is, I'm just following orders. If you really want them to be safe, then come to the harbor. I'm in Warehouse 17. See you there, Zero," Centaurus Flame cut the line at that moment. Xerox materialized next to Luna while she put on the Visualizer.
"So, we going, kid?" Xerox asked.
"You bet!" Luna said getting up.
"Pat and I are coming too!" Rey said catching Luna and Xerox's attention.
"You guys?" Luna asked.
"While you fight him, we can rescue your parents," Rey explained.
"Okay then, let's go!" Luna said getting ready to Wave Change. Rey (or Pat) closed his eyes and screamed at the sky generating electricity in his body.
"Transcode 011! Gemini Spark!"
"Transcode 666! Zero!"
Both of them vanished in their own ways onto the Wave Road, on their way to the warehouse.
