The next chapter is here, and much quicker than some might have expected, which I'll explain why at the end of this chapter. This one will be a tense one, as it is a rush to save Deema, yet it will also be a very long chapter to explain some lore, as well as to get ready for the second temple. I hope you enjoy it.
Chapter 12: Cold Cure
The guppies were carrying Deema, who was just stung by a Flame Bee, and were trying to find a nearby hospital to get help. They came to a small town that was called Chillyton, a town that was smaller than BlizzardTucky, but had some important buildings. There was also a huge mountain nearby.
"Maybe this place will have a hospital" Molly said. They split up to search for a hospital. They searched for about 5 minutes before Gil shouted that he had found one. It looked like your average hospital, but was smaller than a normal one. When they entered, they saw that nobody was there except for the receptionist.
"Excuse me Miss? We need a doctor now!" Goby said.
"Oh hello kids, what's with the hurry?"
"Our friend here was stung by a Flame Bee, and we need a doctor now" Cryo told her.
"Oh my! I'll call Dr. Alice right away!" she said, going to get her. The guppies waited for about 3 minutes before she and Dr. Alice returned.
"This is Dr. Alice, one of our top doctors here. She knows about every type of injury or disease here" the receptionist says.
"Hello kids, so your friend here was stung by a Flame Bee I hear?" Alice asks. They all nod their heads.
"I see. Then this is serious, as barely anyone has survived a Flame Bee sting before" Alice worriedly says.
"What?!" they all shouted.
"Is there something they can at least do to help her?" Goby asked.
"Well…there is one thing. Follow me" Alice said. They all followed her to a room at the end of the building. They lay Deema down on the bed as she groans in pain.
"E-Everything hurts and b..burns" Deema weakly said.
"Listen to me kids, as this is very important" Alice said to them as they huddles close. "There is a way for your friend to be cured of the sting, but it's very complex and dangerous, but it's important to know what we're dealing with" Alice said to them.
"Is it the Flame Bee? What else do we need to know?" Gil curiously asked.
"Flame Bees are insects owned only by the Fire Lord, and are very dangerous. Their stings contain a number of symptoms, but they all eventually lead to death. It has a very low survival rate" Alice explains.
"Is Deema…going to d-die?" Oona asks.
"It is possible" she replied.
"What do you mean "possible" doctor?" Zooli asked.
"There has only been one person to survive the sting of that insect: The Ice Queen" Alice says, leaving them shocked.
"The..the Ice Queen lived the sting before?!" Molly asked.
"Yes. She managed to find a cure west of the town, making a special liquid cure made from ingredients hidden in the mountains, and it was able to cure her of the sting" Alice explained.
"Where can we go to get these ingredients?" Gil asked.
"They are located on Thunder Mountain, home to one of the seven temples. You will need three ingredients: A frozen orange that grows in Coldstone Cavern, honey that is made from the mountain's native Ice Bees, and a lemon struck by lightning at the top of the mountain. The lemon even has a very, very rare case of giving the person special abilities. With those ingredients, Deema should be cured from her sting" Alice explains to the group.
"Well guys, we know what to do. We have to go to the mountain to get those ingredients" Molly said to them.
"Not so fast kids!" Alice shouted.
"What is it now?" Goby said.
"You'll also need to keep her from dying while you guys go. Someone would need to lower the temperature of the room to keep your friend cool, which would prevent her from dying quickly. Does anyone here have like…I don't know…special ice powers" Alice says to them. They all turn to Molly, who blushes in embarrassment.
"I..I do" she says.
"Good, then you'll need to stay here to keep Deema cool" Alice says.
"I'll stay here too. I'll monitor Deema to make sure she stays alive" Nonny says.
"Here is the map of the mountain. Use it to find the ingredients" Alice says, handing the map over to Gil.
"Hey boy, you have to stay here with Molly and Nonny until we come back Ok?" Gil says to Bubble Puppy, who barks in agreement.
"Take care of her guys, please?" Goby says to them.
"Don't worry Goby, we'll make sure she stays alright" Molly assures him. He leaves the room with the others, leaving Molly, Nonny and Alice alone. "So what do we do now?" Molly asks Alice. "Well, are you able to lower the temperature of rooms yet Molly?" Alice asks her. "No, I don't know how to do that yet". "Well, then you can use your powers to blow wind onto Deema. The wind you make should be able to keep her cool" Alice tells her.
Molly nods her head and uses her powers to summon wind that she blasts on Deema. Alices tells her to hold it like that until her friends return with the ingredients. Nonny places an ice pack he made on Deema's head. This causes her to smile briefly.
"Ugh…my body hurts" Deema groans in pain.
"Don't worry Deema. The others are getting ingredients we need to make you feel better" Moll tells her.
At the bottom of Thunder Mountain, the other guppies are looking at the height of the mountain, admiring the size and beauty of the mountain.
"How are we ever going to find the ingredients on a mountain this big?" Oona asks.
"I suggest we split up to find the ingredients. Everyone huddle together" Cryo says. They all huddle together to discuss the plan.
"OK, so here's the plan. Me and Zooli will get the honey, Oona will get the orange, and Gil and Goby will get the lemon. We each meet back here by sunset" Cryo explains.
"Got it!" they all say.
"Well everyone, let's split up and find those ingredients!" Gil says. They all split up and climb the mountain to find their respective item.
Oona is swimming through the mountain, having to go through lots of snow, desperate to find Coldstone Cavern and the orange. She keeps swimming through the mountain and snow.
"I'll never find the cave in this amount of snow. It's probably buried underneath all this snow and ice, but I have to find it to get the Frozen Orange" she says to herself. Oona keeps searching for the cave, while also looking around at the mountain's scenery.
"Wow, this mountain sure is pretty, maybe we should come here more often" Oona says to herself, but then she feels a cold breeze pass her.
"What was that breeze?" she wonders. The girl spots a cave entrance, one that looks like the cave Dr. Alice mentioned. "That must be it, I found it!" she shouts as she heads to the cave.
Inside the cave, it was very cold, making Oona shiver. She saw that there was icicle crystal poking out of the walls and ceiling, along with there being some plants she had never seen before. "Look at all these crystals…it's so beautiful" she says. She then spots a tree at the end of the cave, with oranges on them.
"There it is, the orange tree!" she happily says. "Wait, how are they even growing in here with almost no sunlight?" she wonders. "Eh, probably not important".
Oona notices platforms on a pool of cold water, leading to the tree. "Oh, this is too easy" she says with confidence, and jumps on the first platform. Before she jumps on the next one, she hears a small splash in the water.
"W..what was th-that? H..hello?" Oona nervously calls out. She gets curious, and looks in the water. She gets closer, and then sees something under the water. "What is that? It kinda looks like a big fish" Oona says. It then jumps out of the water, startling her and causing her to fall down and back up.
What she thought was a big fish was actually a guppy, but it was wearing clothes from the time of old natives. Oona backs up, but not before two more appear behind her, both with spears in their hands.
"W..W..Who are you people?" Oona scaredly asks. "I mean no harm. I just want the orange. Please…don't hurt me" she says to them. The people throw something at her face, which blinds her.
"Ok, you wanna f-fight? T-th-then bri-ng it…on…" Oona says before passing out from the gas.
Oona wakes up, weak and tired from that gas. She looks around to see where she is, which turns out to be a prison cell. She tries to move, but finds out she's trapped by a chain. "Hello?! Someone, please…help me!" Oona calls for help, but no reply comes.
Feeling hopeless, Oona gives up and starts to cry. "I just (sniff) want to go home" Oona says. She starts to cry on herself, when someone comes to her cell.
"Be quiet, or else there will be punishment" the guard says.
"Why should I listen to you?"
"Because then you'll have a sentence with no trial" he says.
"Trial? I didn't even do anything wrong, you have to trust me!" Oona says.
"You tried to steal our tribe's Frozen Orange, which is the biggest crime we have" the guard said.
"I need that orange to save my friend's life. She was stung by a Flame Bee, and needs that orange to help her. Please, you have to let me out" Oona explains.
"Wait, seriously?" he says.
"Yes, it's true! Please let me out!" Oona shouts. The guard looks around, and then brings out a key to open her cell, as well as to set Oona free. He then takes off his mask, revealing his face.
"My name is Calper, and I'm one of the chief's leading generals. I didn't know your friend was stung by a Flame Bee. I'll get you out of here" Calper said to her.
"You will? Thank you so much!" Oona says, hugging him.
"Calper! Why did you let the prisoner go?!" another guard said to him.
"Heather, it's OK! Her friend was stung by a Flame Bee! She needs the orange or her friend will die" Calper explains. Heather takes off her mask too.
"Who are you?" Oona asks.
"This is Heather, the other leading general along with me. She's one of my best friends" Calper explained to her.
"And if you want to get that orange, you'll have to speak to the chief to get permission" Heather explains. She hands Oona a pair of clothes.
"What are these for?" she asks.
"They'll help you blend in with the others. You'll have to change into them, I'll help you" Heather says as she helps Oona change into the clothes.
"Ta-da!" Heather shouts. Oona is now wearing a light blue cover up with a snowflake like pattern, similar to belly dancers. She also had some clothes that reminded her of old natives that lived long ago, but it had less clothing. Her hair was also fixed, looking more like Zooli's hair style.
"You look so adorable in those! You'll blend in perfectly" Heather says.
"Yeah, but don't you think this is a bit too…revealing?" Oona says while blushing in embarrassment.
"Maybe…but that's just what we have to wear"
"Here, take this mask, it will help you. You have to wear it at all costs" Calper says as he puts his back on and hands one to Oona. They all leave the prison, and Oona is sparkled eyed at the town she saw in front of her.
The village was like a mixture of both modern and old societies, with buildings like houses, restaurants and libraries, but also some old fashioned buildings like blacksmiths, trade centers, and old court rooms.
"How long have you guys been down here?" Oona asks.
"Our tribe has been down here for 200 years, as we've adapted to the cold environment, and made clothing from the crystals above us" Calper explains.
"Wow…200 years…that's a long time" Oona says to herself.
"We're here, the chief's office" Heather says. In the building, the chief is sitting in his chair. He looks at a picture on his desk, and sighs.
"Sir, we have someone who wants to speak to him" Calper says to him.
"Who is it?" he says. Oona appears to him. The chief takes off his mask. "Take off your mask young lady".
"Oona starts sweating and looks at them. They give her a look for her to do it. She gulps, and takes off her mask.
"It can't be! How could you let her out! Guards, take them all away!" the chief shouts as security surrounds them.
"Wait! I need your help to get the orange to save my friend!" Oona says to him.
"Why would you friend need our orange?" he asks.
"Because she was stung by Pyros's Flame Bee, and she needs it to survive '' Oona tells him.
"Very well, come with me young lady…what is your name exactly?" he asks.
"My name is Oona"
"OK Oona. My name is Ballem, and I want you to follow me" Ballem tells her.
They make it back to where Oona started, at the platforms that lead to the tree.
"What are we doing back here?" Oona asks.
"Only the most skilled and graceful are allowed to get the Frozen Orange. I have a challenge for you Oona" Ballem said to her.
"OK, what is it?"
"If you can make it to the orange, grab it, and make it back here without falling in the water, you can take the orange with you. But if you fail…you must stay here with us…forever!" Ballem explains.
"Forever?! But what about my friends and family?" Oona worriedly asked.
"That is your fault for coming here. Now…do you accept the challenge?" he asks her.
"(sigh)...I accept your challenge. I'll do it for Deema" Oona said with confidence.
Oona jumps on the platforms like a skilled ninja. She keeps going and going. Arrows then start to shoot out of the walls, but she evades and dodges all of them gracefully. One of the platforms starts to shake, alerting her. She quickly jumps off it before it rises up to the ceiling. "Close one" she said as she kept going.
"My goodness…I've never seen anyone with those kind of skills since the previous Ice Queen" Ballem says.
Oona grabs an arrow, and uses it to launch herself onto the island with the tree, grabbing one of the oranges. "Got the orange, now I have to make it back" she says, jumping back to the platforms. She does well, but then an arrow hits her tail, knocking her down and dropping the orange on the next platform.
"My tail!" she shouts. The platforms starts to shake.
"Oona get out of there now!" Heather shouts. She struggles to get up, but then her eyes glow brightly again, and she jumps off it before it rises up again. She grabs the orange and swiftly makes it back to the start with no problem at all. Her eyes stop glowing.
"Ugh…what…happened" she asks.
"You did it Oona, you completed the challenge!" Heather says.
"I..did?"
"Look in your hand Oona" Calper says. Oona looks at her hand to see the orange she's holding.
"I did it! I really did it!" she happily said, jumping up in the air.
"Indeed you did Oona, you may leave with the orange. Now go, save your friend, and help the Ice Queen's descendant defeat Pyros" Ballem says.
"Wait, descendant?" Oona confusingly asks.
"Oh, the Ice Queen lineage is tied to a specific family each generation. The current one is tied to a family called the Gentilella's, with it being a girl named Molly" Ballem explains. Oona just stand there, shocked and surprised.
"I uh…have to go. Thank you!" she says.
"Bye Oona!" they both say.
"Oh wait one more thing, Can I have my clothes back?" Oona asks.
"Oh yeah! Here you go" Heather says, tossing Oona her clothes. "You can also keep those clothes too!"
"Thank you, bye!" Oona shouts, leaving the cave with the orange.
Meanwhile, Cryo and Zooli were also climbing the mountain to get honey from Ice Bees. On their way up, they saw tons of trees around them, most being covered with snow, along with some animals living in dens or out in the open.
"How is there plant life at this altitude and temperature? It's way too cold for trees to be growing here" Zooli asks.
"They adapted to the cold temperature of this place, and were able to grow at such extreme temperatures" Cryo explained. The two kept climbing the mountain until Zooli got curious.
"Hey Cryo, do you know anything about those Ice Bees Dr. Alice mentioned? Are their stings as dangerous as a Flame Bee sting?" Zooli asked him.
"I do know some things about them. While their stings can't cause death like the Flame Bee's can, they do still cause extreme side effects. Their stings can give people the shivers for days, make them develop fevers and colds, and other severe illnesses" Cryo explained.
"I see…is that all?" she said.
"Nope…there is one more severe thing their stings could do" Cryo said in a scary tone.
"W..what is it?" she asked.
"If stung repeatedly over and over again, their stings can freeze a person solid. It doesn't kill them, just makes them enter a cryogenic slumber for eternity. No one knows how to free them" Cryo explained to her.
"They can do WHAT?!" Zooli shouted. "Now I'm actually scared. I hope that doesn't happen to us".
"Don't worry Zooli, it's only happened to one person, and besides, the bees are friendly unless provoked…which makes…them attack…" Cryo said, slowing down at the end. "Oh wait…we're basically provoking them by taking their honey".
"Yeah, how are we going to get pass them?" Zooli asks.
"Well first, we have to find a nest"
"You mean like that one over there?" Zooli said, pointing to a beehive on a tree.
"Yep" he said with regret. They both slowly approach the beehive tree.
"Here, take this" Cryo said, handing a bottle over to Zooli.
"Me?! Why do I have to do it?!" Zooli whispered.
"One, I can defend you in case they attack you, and also because they can detect when something is a threat or not, and you're normally the gentle one with animals" Cryo said to her.
"Yeah, with regular animals, not these kinds of creatures" she said back.
"Zooli, you have to do this. I'll make sure nothing happens to you, I promise" Cryo whispered to her.
Zooli gulped, but took a deep breath and went up to the hive. The bees are swarming the hive, protecting it. They took notice of Zooli, but didn't attack her because they did not see her as a threat yet.
"Hey…I'm j-just going to t...take some of th..this honey" Zooli quietly said, letting some of the honey fall into the bottle. The bees didn't seem to understand her and just kept flying around.
"I got the honey!" Zooli shouted to Cryo. She starts to head back when she heard the buzzing getting louder. "Cryo…is something behind me?" she shouted to him. She turned around to see a swarm of the bees behind her.
"Zooli run!" Cryo shouted at her. Zooli started to run away as fast as she could to avoid stings, but the bees started to sting her in retaliation.
"Ow! Cryo they're stinging me!" "What do I do?!" she yelled as she swatted them away to run.
"Just keep running! They'll return to their hive once they get far enough away!" Cryo said as he ran. They kept running away, but something was starting to happen to Zooli.
"Hey Cryo…I'm st..starting to f..feel a bit…weak now" Zooli said weakly as she slowed down.
"Just keep moving, we're almost there!" he shouted.
"But my body…it feels like it won't move…oh no…" Zooli said with fear as she looked down. It was her tail, and it was starting to freeze up, and was starting to spread. "Zooli you have to keep moving, please!" Cryo said desperately, but she was struggling to move.
"I thought that bees lose their stingers once they sting something?!" Zooli shouted.
"Regular and Flame bees do, but Ice Bees are like wasps, they don't lose their stingers after stinging something" Cryo said.
"Nnngh!" Zooli groans as she tries to move. "I can't mo..move c..c..c..Cryo, my t..tail is frozen solid…and it's st..starting to get c..c..cold now" Zooli said, shivering as the ice was spreading up her body.
"N..NO! Zooli please you have to try!" Cryo yelled, starting to show tears. Zooli got an idea, and threw the bottle to Cryo.
"Cryo, you have to deliver the honey to Deema…and m..make her f…feel…better" Zooli said.
"No! I'm not leaving without you!" he said.
"Hey! It's going to b..be fine…just ke..ep moving, and to tell the…others…thank you for letting m..me in the ba..nd" she weakly said. The Ice was almost at her arms.
"B..But, I'm nothing without you and-"
"That's not t-true! You d..don't need me to…be powerful. The…others c..can he..h..help you bec..come stronger. You're much more capable than you think you are..ugh" Zooli said. Cryo swims up to her as the bees finish stinging her.
"I just…don't want to…lose you" Cryo says, crying at her.
"H..hey…it's alright. I mi..might be frozen…but I will-" Zooli interrupts by giving Cryo a kiss on his lips. "Always like you…C..Cryo" Zooli finished as she froze in front of him.
Cryo drops the bottle in the snow, heartbroken at what he just witnessed. Filled with anger, he picks up the bottle, and swims up to the bees.
"Why bees?! Why did you have to do this?! WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LET US TAKE THE HONEY WITHOUT STINGING US?!" Cryo screamed loudly. The bees just buzzed at him.
"I don't care that people-" Cryo stopped himself to think about what had just happened.
"Wait…did I just…understand you?" he asked. The bees buzz at him.
"I can understand you guys?! Oh my glacier! I'm so sorry for yelling, it's just that you just froze my best friend right there, but why? We need the honey" He asked them. They buzz at him.
"I see…people always destroy your hive so you can't sting people, so you sting them to fight back" he repeated. "BUt we weren't going to do that, promise. We need the honey to save our friend who was stung by a Flame Bee" Cryo said. The bees look at each other and buzz positively.
"You'll let us have the honey? Thank you…but..Oh wait, I have an idea!" Cryo shouted. He went up to Zooli, and blasted a fire beam at her, which melted away the ice, freeing her as she falls to the ground.
"C..Cryo?"
"ZOOLI! You're okay!" he shouts as he hugs her.
"I'm free? I'm free! Thank you Cryo!" Zooli hugged him back.
"I got the honey, the bees let us have it after I told them why we needed it" he explained.
"Oh…great…I'm so cold" she said, shivering.
"Right, let's get going" Cryo said as he carried Zooli down the mountain.
Gil and Goby were already near the top of the mountain, searching for a lemon they needed for the cure.
"How are we ever going to find a lemon that is supposed to get struck by lightning?" Gil asked.
"I have no idea Gil" Goby replied.
"Hey look, a temple!" Gil shouted, pointing to a temple near them. It was a similar looking temple to the first one, but with some modifications.
"We should check it out, maybe we could get some early information" Gil suggested.
"We don't have time for that Gil, now let's go" Goby said, grabbing his arm. "Ok sheesh man" Gil annoyingly said.
They kept climbing the mountain until they found a lemon tree, where Gil grabbed a lemon. They then made their way to the top of the mountain, where they got an amazing view of the world.
"Wow, it sure is awesome up here, right Goby? Goby?" Gil said. Goby was looking up.
"How is lightning supposed to come here? There isn't a storm cloud in sight?" Goby said. Gil placed the lemon in the center.
"I don't know, maybe we could try to get it to come?" he said.
"It doesn't work like that Gil!" Goby shouted.
"Goby calm down please!" Gil said.
"Why should I?! Deema is going to die because of nature! Ugh!" Goby sat down. Gil sat down next to him.
"Hey man, we aren't going to lose her, I promise" Gil comforted him.
"What makes you say that?" he asked.
"Because when Molly got hit by Pyros, I thought we would lose her. But she lived it, so we are not going to lose Deema. Bubble Guppies always win in the end, and we'll beat nature too! Regardless of what happens, she'll be happy we were there to help her" Gil explains to him.
"Thanks man, I appreciate it" Goby thanked him. "No problem dude" Gil said. Suddenly, lightning struck the lemon, filling it with electricity.
"Well that just happened" Gil said.
"Come on Gil! We have to go now!" Goby said. "Right!" Gil said. As they were heading down the mountain, Goby stopped in front of the temple. "Hey is everything alright?" Gil asked. "Oh yeah, it's just that you wanted to get some early info about the temple, right?" Goby asked. Gil smiled.
The two headed up the stairs, looking around at the temple. Gil pointed to some text on the ceiling. It read "Being serious all the time can be bad. Sometimes, you have to let loose to win".
"What does that mean?" Gil wondered. "I know!" Goby said.
"You do?
"Yeah, it's referencing Deema! She's the one with the goofy personality, so it had to be her!" Goby explained.
"Yeah that does make sense!" "We have to tell the others, come one!" Gil shouted. The boys headed down the mountain to reunite with the others.
Oona was already at the bottom, still wearing her new clothes. She was waiting for the others to arrive at the bottom. Zooli and Cryo came down, seeing them. Oona saw them and rushed to help them.
"Zooli, Cryo! You're both okay!" Oona exclaimed.
"Yeah we are now. I now know what it's like to be a popsicle now" Zooli said, shivering after finishing her sentence.
"Wait what?" Oona confusingly asked.
"I was frozen by those pesky Ice Bees, but Cryo freed me, and we got the honey too!" Zooli explained.
"Oh my! Seems like you had a more dangerous adventure than me!" Oona said.
"Really? What happened to you? And why are you wearing those clothes?" Cryo asked.
"You won't believe it. I was kidnapped by some tribe that lives under the mountain, and they let me go if I could get the orange, which I did. They even gave me new clothes too!" Oona explained.
"(So the rumors are true)" Cryo said in his head. Gil and Goby arrived on the scene soon with the lemon.
"We're here guys!" Gil shouted.
"We have to hurry now to save Deema!" Goby said.
"He's right, let's go!" Zooli said. They all rushed back to the hospital.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Molly and Nonny were still helping with Deema. Nonny and Alice were checking her vitals, and Molly was still blowing cold air onto Deema.
"Guys…my hands are starting to hurt now. Can I stop?" Molly asked.
"Not yet sweetie. If you stop, Deema might overheat and die. We have to wait for your friends to get back with the ingredients" Alice told her. "(sigh) Okay, I'll wait" Molly said. The door then opened, with the others holding their ingredients.
"We're back! And we got the ingredients!" Gil said.
"You guys made it back!" Molly happily said. Bubble Puppy barked happily.
"It was no easy task. We had to wait for lightning to just strike out of nowhere" Gil said.
"I was frozen solid by Ice Bees, but Cryo helped free me" Zooli said.
"And I was taken by an ancient society and was put to a challenge to get the orange" Oona said. Molly and Nonny were confused about what they just said, and shrugged at each other.
"Good job kids, now you can give me the ingredients so I can make the cure" Alice said, taking the ingredients into another room.
"Ugh…why do I smell a…lemon?" Deema said. She was starting to wake up.
"Deema!" they all said.
"Yeah, I'm alive, although I feel like my body is about to…give up" she weakly said.
"Don't worry friend, the doctor is making the cure for you right now" Molly told her.
"Great…wake me when she comes back" Deema said, lying back down. Molly giggled.
"Hey Molly, can I tell you something?" Oona asked.
"Sure Oona, what is it?"
"So before I left the cave, those people's chief told me that the Ice Queen is actually someone passed down from your family, which means that you're related to the Ice Queen!" Oona explained to her.
"What?! Are you serious?" she whispered.
"I am friend" she said.
"Moving on…I like those clothes they gave you, you look pretty in them" Molly complimented her dress.
"Aww thanks Molly" Oona said.
"I'm back, and the cure is done" Dr. Alice said, having the cure in her hand. Molly stopped what she was doing. "Oh man…that was exhausting" she said. "All Deema needs to do is drink this whole thing, and she'll be good as new.
"Wake up Deema, you're medicine is here" Molly said to her.
"It..is?" Deema said. "Here you go. You have to drink the whole thing to be cured. Deema takes the liquid, and drinks it whole. "Oh man…that's sour-AGHHHH" Deema yelled, feeling shocked from the electricity. She fell back down on the bed.
"Deema!"
"Are you okay?" Oona asks. Deema then jumps back up on the bed.
"I FEEL AWESO-WOAH!" she shouts before falling on the floor.
"I'm okay!" she shouted.
"She's back!" They all shout.
"That medicine really worked, Doctor. I feel good as new!" Deema said.
"I'm glad you're feeling better dear, just doing my job" Alice said.
"How do you feel?" Nonny asked.
"I feel great! I'm ready to tackle any temple that comes our way like a bag of potato chips!" she shouts. They all laugh.
"Oh yeah, the temple!" Gil said loudly.
"What? I just said any temple not a temple" Deema said.
"No, me and Goby saw a temple on top of the mountain, and by the looks of it, It's about you Deema!" Gil explained.
"ME?!"
"It has to be. The text said something about letting loose sometimes, and that fits you perfectly" Goby said.
"Well then, I'm excited now! I can't wait to finally have some action with you Molls!" Deema said to her. Molly giggled.
"I can't wait either, friend! I'd say we go there after we complete the second temple, what do you guys think?" Molly said.
"I think that's a good idea. Two temples in one run" Cryo said. "And speaking of temples, Coldnic Town isn't that far now, so we better get going".
"Goodbye kids, and good luck on your journey!" Alice said.
"Thank you Doctor Alice!" they all said as they left.
"Say Oona, what's with the new look?" Deema curiously asked.
"Long story" she simply said.
"Oh come on! I don't get an explanation?!" she jokingly said, making them all laugh.
So the guppies made there way to Coldnic town, where they would stay before going to the second temple, and then would make their way to the third temple, where Molly and Deema would be going in together, now that Deema has healed.
Author's Notes
Well this took longer than I thought it would. I never thought it would be this long of a chapter, but hey at least it gives more lore and events to happen, but for now, I will answer reviews:
ReaderandWriter9000: I decided to do a chapter about the guppy's fears, because it may or may not play a role later. Also yeah I was inspired by some fanfics about Molly's fear of needles lol. Zooli and Oona's fears, while Oona's comes from her shy and awkward personality from the show, Zooli's I thought of because it was a common fear that some people have. I'm glad your excited for the universe I'm making, along with some other projects hehe *wink*
PrimroseRaspberry: I'm glad you liked how I did the guppy's fears. Some of them I was inspired by others, while others from the show, and some I made myself. I hope you're excited for the future, cause I already have some big things planned.
Now for an explanation from the beginning. I may start shortening the amount of chapters between temples to make this story go faster. This is because it contains some chapters that would take up space not needed. I hope you all understand this. But for now, that's all for now…or is it?
Post Chapter
After Gil and Goby left the temple, we see a mysterious figure standing on top of the temple, spying on the two boys as they leave.
"Master Pyros, I have some bad news. The boys have the lemon, which means they'll be able to heal Deema" the girl says.
Pyros, hearing this, smashes his fist on the table in rage. "Dammit! Why won't these kids just die?!" Pyros yells.
"Don't worry, I won't fail like Maverick did" she says.
"No need too. Goby has no use for use other than slavery, and I want Gil saved for Alana. You can have Molly and the clown girl" Pyros tells her.
"Understood Master Pyros, I will update you" she says and hangs up.
Pyros sighs and heads towards the elevator, before someone says something to him.
"Hey! Let me out of here!" It was Mia, still in her cell.
"You don't understand, do you little one? If I let you out, you'll just head towards the mountain to get to your big sister, and I want to make her suffer" Pyros says.
"You better leave my sister alone!" Mia yells at him.
"How about this? If you don't shut up, I'll make sure you never see your sister again" Pyros says to her, holding a fireball. Mia backs up in fear. "Good". Pyros enters the elevator.
Bombel was working on the mysterious cyborg from before, finishing up a few modifications on it, when Pyros entered the room.
"How are the projects coming along Bombel?" he asks.
"They're going very well sire, and speaking of which, I have something to show you. Follow me" Bombel says. He and Pyros head to another elevator, which takes them down underground.
"Where are we going Bombel?" he asks.
"This will take us to a secret underground part of the lab, where I have been testing my portal machine, and it was a success, and I brought in something you might like" Bombel explained, laughing.
"What is it?"
"A while ago, two creatures from another world came here suddenly, and then left. But I have been able to open a portal to their world, and saw the lizard monster fighting a giant bird, and it got sent here. Behold!" Bombel said.
The lights turned on, revealing a certain winged monster. Pyros was sparkled eyed all round.
"Oh my flame, what is this thing?" Pyros asked.
"The people of its world call it "The Fire Demon", and now we have it, and soon it will be under our control, and with this, those guppies stand no chance" Bombel said.
"I'm proud of you Bombel, excellent work, but I would like you to show me Stylus now. I want to greet her for the first time" Pyros said, smiling evilly.
"Understood my lord" Bombel said. They both headed back to the elevator, where Bombel showed Pyros the machine.
"This is the completed Stylus, half guppy, half machine. I gave it extra upgrades, like shields, machine guns, beam swords, and even a microphone katana" Bombel explained.
"I'm glad you finished it. We will test it out once they return from the third temple. This should give them some trouble, and it'll make sure to "Rock their Style" hard" Pyros said, evilly laughing loudly.
