Chapter 67: Violette:
Raf's POV:
I feel really bad for Twilight. She just lost her power and Rook has it. What does he want with any stones, anyway? Then Director Flagg came in.
"First, in case none of you knew, I made Arashi an offical agent."
"But I am still planning on going back to Zi," says Arashi.
"Now, we also got another new addition to your team."
"Alright, who is it," asks Steel.
"Like Dr. Robertson, this girl's from Charter City. Meet Erika Violette."
"Hi. Nice to meet you guys."
"So, tell us about yourself," says Miko.
"Well, my boyfriend's name is Nathan Park and I have energy powers."
We were all surprised. She then revealed her energy powers. She turned into a purple energy form and started flying.
"So, you're from Charter City," says Jack, "you probably had experience with Rook."
"Oh yeah. He framed the Flex Fighters. Let's just say, that's kind of personal to me."
"Your boyfriend's one of them, isn't he," asks Roadblock.
"What... no... Wingspan."
"Dude," says Miko.
"Also, you got a mission. It seems some Skrulls have been spotted in Arizona. Good luck."
. . .
We arrived in Arizona.
"I feel like we should focus on stopping Metlar and getting my stone back," says Twilight.
"One thing at a time," says Jack, "in the meantime, here's a NERF blaster. Enjoy."
"So, what's the first thing we do," asks Erika.
"Split up," says Jack.
"Got it," says Erika.
. . .
Twilight, Erika, and I were checking a store. So far, things seemed normal.
"Nothing except... wait, is that Spider-Woman," asks Twilight.
It looked like Spider-Woman, but something wasn't right.
"That's a Skrull," I said.
The Skrull revealed itself and attacked us. Erika turned to her energy form, and I turned to my maximal form. We fought off the Skrulls. Twilight blasted it. The skrull left.
"The Skrull's getting away," I said.
"I got it!" Twilight tried to levitate the Skrull to us, but it ran. "Oh, right."
. . .
We were all getting some ice cream.
"Did you always have your powers," asks Erika.
"Well, no. I guess I've been using them so much, I got used to them."
"Honestly, I'm not even sure I want to keep my powers. They're cool, but I'm worried I'll never have my normal life back. I mean, being a superhero isn't easy. Just ask the Flex Fighters."
"Uhh... guys," I said, "look!"
We saw the rest of the team was being taken by Skrulls.
"We better move," says Twilight.
. . .
We were sneaking around the ship and saw Super-Skrull.
"You Unit: E agents are the latest pest in our plan. So, we have no choice, but to eliminate you!"
Something tapped on my shoulder. I turned around and saw it was a Skrull.
"Don't be afraid. My name is Talos. I'm sort of a rebel. I want to help the Earth, but some Skrulls don't feel that way. Go figure."
"And we should trust a..." Twilight began.
"I think he's telling the truth," says Erika.
"I have a plan," says Talos.
. . .
"It seems this boy is the leader," says Super-Skrull, going to Jack, "he will be the first!"
"We have captured more," says Talos, disguised as a soldier.
"Excellent," says Super-Skrull, but we got up and started blasting the Skrulls. Talos freed our team.
"Aren't you a Skrull," asks Steel.
"I'm a black sheep."
"You'll pay for this, Talos," says Super-Skrull.
The Skrulls then left.
. . .
"Thanks for the help," I said.
"My pleasure. Well, I gotta go now." Talos left.
"How do you feel," I asked.
"Honestly, normal," says Twilight.
"That's more like it," says Erika.
In the next chapter, the Cult of Metlar will be going after Fluttershy.
