Yeah, so, this one...DUN DUN DUUUUUUN
Trini groaned as she felt someone touch her shoulder. "Trini! Trini, wake up."
She groaned and shifted slightly. "Hmm?"
"Trini, it's Victor. Come on, we have to go." Victor shook her once more. "Wake up, Jake."
Trini turned slightly to see Jake snoozing next to her. "How'd he get in here?" She didn't want to sleep with him. Not in the same bed. Not now. "Why are…what's going on?"
"There's something going on. We gotta go."
"But I don't wanna put on pants." She moaned.
"Come on." He growled in anger.
She woke up instantly.
"So much for our sustained campaign of butt-whipping stemming the tide of ne'er-do-wells." Gert sighed. "Any idea which costume is trying to take our parents' place this time, pumpkin eyes?"
"No clue, muffin lips." Chase replied.
"If you ever call me any of those names, I will drive a stake through your heart." Trini threatened.
"I would appreciate if you wouldn't call each other names." Victor waved his hand; not looking at Trini.
"Seriously, we've already got one crazy couple." Nico agreed.
"It'd be so cool if we got to fight another animal bad guy like Rhino or Vulture. I'd give anything to punch a Giraffe man!" Molly exclaimed.
"Molly, we're going into battle against dangerous criminal, not collecting Pokemon." Nico corrected.
"I was kidding, Nico." Molly narrowed her eyes. "And Pokemon stopped being cool, like, a hundred years ago."
"Amen." Trini raised her hand.
"Sorry. I'm just grumpy 'cause my mouth is killing me." Nico rubbed her cheek. "I'm done with the whole cutting thing, so I had to brush my gums until they bled to get the Staff of One to appear."
"Prepare for landing in three…two…" The Leapfrog warned.
"Hey, where's the action?" Chase questioned. "You sure this is the right place, Leapfrog?"
"There are people down there." Trini confirmed. "More than one."
As they got off, Gert panned around slightly. "Is it just me, or does this feel kinda deja vuey?"
"Oh my god. This…this is the same development as the Wilders' old mansion." Nico gasped.
"And a Wilder." Trini sneered.
"Sorry to drag you guys all the way out here." Alex said as he walked out of the mansion. "I was feeling nostalgic."
"Alex?" Molly gasped.
"Wait, isn't he…?" Victor narrowed his eyes.
"Ashes." Trini answered.
"Ashes in hell." Chase added.
"Nice to see you, too, Talkback." Alex stated as he walked towards them.
"And it will be nice to watch you die again, you worthless piece of-."
"It's not him." Trini informed. "His hearbeat's all wrong."
"Oh, come on, it is me." Alex smiled.
"If you really are Alex, tell me the first place where you and I kissed." Nico growled.
"That…that was a long time ago, Sister Grimm." Alex placed his finger to his ear. "But if you give me just a second…"
"Told you." Trini spat.
"Revelations!" Nico zapped the fake Alex; revealing his true form.
"Damn you, Girl. I'm sure your parents would be impressed…if you hadn't let them croak, I mean." The man stated as he walked through the smoke.
"Is that…one of the Jackson Five?" Chase joked.
"No, I recognize him from somewhere. He's…" Gert started.
"The name's not important. I just wanted the whole Pride to hear your true feelings about the innocent kid you offed." The man glared at the group.
"What are you talking about?" Nico threatened.
"The Pride is dead." Jake corrected.
"He's talking about us, hosebag." A voice called from the bushes. Three people were standing there, one was dressed in a renaissance dress, the second was a fat man, and the third was a skinny man with a controller in his hand. "Alex's real friends." The fat one said.
Suddenly, Victor's power began to fritz out. "Wh-what's happening to me?" Bolts flew from his hands and towards the group of teens.
Trini turned back to the group. "They're controlling him!"
"Chase, you have to knock me out!" Victor shouted.
"Say huh?" Chase turned to Victor.
"You heard, Trini! Put me down before I kill someone! Please!" Victor begged.
"I'm…I'm sorry, Brother." Chase swung around; punching Victor in the jaw. He collapsed; unconscious.
"Who the hell are you, freaks?" Gert turned to the four adults facing them.
"Is that 'Arsenic'?" The girl asked as she stepped forward. "That's a question you should be asking your so-called friends." She picked up a small object. Out of it, came smoke that conjured up an image of Nico and Chase kissing. "Take a look at what they're up to behind your back."
"Chase kissed Nico?" Molly gasped. "Gross!"
"No…" Gert whispered.
"That's…that's a lie!"
"Yeah, Nico's the one who kissed me!" Chase shouted.
"Should have seen that one coming." Trini whispered.
"Of course you would have." The fat one stepped forward. "But you couldn't see this." He chucked something from his pocket. At the speed it was going, no one could have seen it pierce Trini's hip bone.
"Trini!" Jake quickly raced to her.
"Have you gone insane?!" Of course, Gert and Nico had no clue of it, as Nico has shoved Chase into the bushes.
"It…it was an accident, Gert!" Nico cried.
"What was, you sucking face with my boyfriend, or you attacking him? We trusted you, you backstabbing-." But Gert didn't finish, thanks to Old Lace jumping onto Nico; teeth bared. "Old Lace, no!"
"It's not healing!" Jake pressed onto Trini's wound.
"Because it was an Adamantium throwing star!" Trini screeched.
"Molly?" Gert cried.
"MOLLY!"
