-This is it.- Alador said.
Ghost was standing in front of the library door.
-All your other classmates crossed this door to get a spirit.- Alador said.
-Do I just have to cross that door?.- Ghost asked.
-You don't just have to cross this door, you have to make the spirit recognize you as its bearer.- Alador answered.
-And if I don't?.- Ghost asked.
-Better not think about it.- Alador answered.
It wasn't that easy to get a spirit. You had to prove yourself worthy of being its bearer. Her classmates proved themselves worthy and if Ghost wanted to save her teacher, she knew she had to prove herself worthy.
-Well, I'm leaving. I have to go see how Marcus is doing.- Alador said.
Alador said that and left. Ghost was left alone in front of the door.
-Okay Ghost, here we go. You just have to get a spirit or else your teacher will die, easy.- Ghost said.
She was trying to be positive but it was hard at the moment. All she could think about was what would happen if she didn't get it. Her teacher needed an antidote and her friends were counting on her. It wasn't time for jokes, it was time to act.
- I'm not going to let them down. Here I come.- Ghost said.
Ghost said that and entered the library.
Meanwhile, Alador was gathering some things to take to Grimwood.
- I have to hurry or Marcus won't tell her.- Alador said.
Alador took everything he needed and went to Grimwood using his teleportation spell. What he didn't know was that Amelia was spying on him.
- Marcus?.- Amelia asked.
Returning to Ghost. He was already inside the library looking for the spirit.
- Hello. Is anyone here?.- Ghost asked.
She continued searching through the library, until she saw that the spirit of the ghost woman was up there. He flew towards her.
-Hello.- Ghost said.
-Finally someone came. I was super bored.- Ghost woman said.
-My name is Ghost.- Ghost said.
-Hello Ghost. My name is Spectre.- Spectre said.
-Hello Spectre. I need you to...- Ghost was interrupted.
-Wait. Let's play something first.- Spectre said.
-What?.- Ghost asked.
-We'll play tag. I'll fly and you'll chase me.- Spectre answered.
-I don't think it's time to start playing.- Ghost said.
-Come on. It'll be fun. Come, catch me.- Spectre said.
Spectre flew away.
-Wait. Don't go.- Ghost said.
Ghost followed her. He chased her around the library. They continued like that for a while, until Spectre stopped.
-Good. Now what do we play?.- Spectre asked.
-I'm not here to play with you!.- Ghost said.
-Calm down. A little fun won't hurt.- Spectre said.
-I don't have time to have fun. I have to hurry.- Ghost said.
-What's wrong with you? You don't like having fun?.- Ghost asked.
-Yes. I do like having fun but now I have to be serious.- Ghost answered.
-Why?.- Ghost asked.
-Because my teacher's life is in danger and if I want to prove myself worthy of having a spirit, I have to be serious.- Ghost answered.
-Do you think I would give my power to someone who doesn't have fun?.- Ghost asked.
-No. I do have fun. I love playing with my friends and my master, but being a heroine is not a game.- Ghost answered.
-Listen girl, there is nothing wrong with having fun from time to time. It helps you get rid of stress and worries.- Spectra said.
-Yes. When my friends are worried about something, I try to cheer them up. We all have a lot of fun when we are together. Knowing that you have to protect the world can be a little stressful.- Ghost said.
-Well then keep going girl. Just be yourself.- Ghost said.
-Yes. I think I understand now. Spectra, lend me your power please.- Ghost said.
-Of course. Extend your hand.- Ghost said.
Both of them joined their hands and a glow was produced that illuminated the entire library. Spectra's spirit had merged with Ghost.
-So that's how it feels.- Ghost said.
Ghost felt a great power running through her body.
-I already have the power! I will go save him, master.- Ghost said.
Ghost went at full speed to meet Virosa. All the girls already had spirits.
In Grimwood Alador was treating Marcus and the girls. With the equipment he brought he was preparing medicine for them.
-What are you doing?.- Miss Grimwood asked.
-I am making a medicine for your students.- Alador answered.
Alador administered a medicine to the girls.
-In a few moments it will take effect and they will be able to recover from the paralysis.- Alador said.
-Oh, that is wonderful, but what about Professor Marcus?.- Miss Grimwood asked.
Alador administered a medicine to Marcus.
-This medicine will alleviate the symptoms a little. It is all I can do for him.- Alador answered.
-Can't you make an antidote?.- Miss Grimwood asked.
-Without knowing what the toxin is, I can't make an antidote.- Alador answered.
-I think I know what it is.- Amelia said.
Alador and Miss Grimwood turned to see that Amelia had appeared at school.
-Amelia? How did you get here?.- Alador asked.
-I teleported when I heard you say that something was wrong with Marcus.- Amelia answered.
Amelia approached Marcus.
-Do you know what the toxin is?.- Miss Grimwood asked.
-It has the same symptoms as the poison of the Amanita Virosa.- Amelia answered.
-What is that?.- Miss Grimwood asked.
-It's the name of a poisonous mushroom that grows in Europe. I know, because I spent a lot of time reading at home.- Amelia answered.
-Amanita Virosa?. Of course!.- Alador said.
Alador went to prepare his equipment to make an antidote.
-Amelia help me.- Alador said.
-Yes dad.- Amelia said.
Amelia and Alador, worked together to make an antidote for Marcus.
In the swamp, Virosa was waiting for the girls.
-Where are they?.- Virosa asked.
She had been waiting for a long time. She thought that maybe they didn't take her seriously.
-Are you waiting for someone?- Ghost asked.
Virosa heard a voice and turned around to see who it was. It was Ghost, who had already arrived.
-You? And the others?.- Virosa asked.
-They're not coming. It's just you and me.- Ghost answered.
-Did you forget that if they didn't all come, I wouldn't tell them what toxin I used on their teacher so they could make an antidote and save him?.- Virosa asked.
-No. That's why I'm going to make you tell me what toxin you used using force.- Phantom answered.
-Are you going to force me? Ha! I'm sorry girl but I'm not afraid of ghosts.- Virosa said.
-Well you should.- Phantom said.
Phantom prepared to start the battle.
-TRANSFORMATION!.- Phantom shouted.
A light of energy surrounded her body. Her form began to change, she was now a little taller. Her clothes consisted of a hood with a dark blue cape, she wore a light blue suit with a drawing of a ghost on the chest, white gloves and boots. She had become a heroine.
-Start shaking. I'm the Phantom Heroine.- Phantom said.
-All you did was change your outfit.- Virosa said.
Phantom used his new powers to fly up to Virosa and possess her.
-What the...?.- Virosa couldn't finish the sentence.
Phantom had control of Virosa's body. He could make her fly and move her wherever he wanted. First he shook her through the air, then he made her hit the trees and finally he dragged her along the ground. Virosa's body was badly hurt. Phantom left her body.
-Have you had enough?.- Phantom asked.
Virosa was hurt and in pain. She stood up with all the strength she had.
-If you don't want me to continue, you know what I want to hear.- Phantom said.
-Never! I will never tell you what toxin I used, no matter what you do to me.- Virosa said.
-You are a...- Ghost was interrupted.
-Be very careful. Remember that you need me to save your master.- Virosa said.
-We don't need you.- Marcus said.
Unexpectedly Marcus appears, completely healed along with the rest of the girls. Ghost and Virosa were surprised to see him well.
-Master Marcus.- Ghost said.
-But how? You should be dying from my toxin.- Virosa asked.
-We were able to discover what toxin you used to make an antidote.- Marcus answered.
-To be more precise, it was our friend Amelia who discovered what toxin you used.- Sibella said.
-Together with her father they prepared an antidote and administered it to the teacher.- Tanis said.
-As you can see we don't need you anymore.- Marcus said.
-Finish her Ghost.- Winnie said.
Ghost was happy to see her teacher well. Since he was already cured, he didn't need Virosa and he prepared to finish her off.
-Hey, Virosa. Did you know that ghosts emit cold temperatures?.- Ghost asked.
-What do you mean?.- Virosa asked.
Suddenly the temperature of the environment began to drop, so very cold. Marcus and the girls shivered from the cold, and tried to warm their bodies.
-How cold.- Elsa said, shivering.
-Why is it so cold all of a sudden?.- Winnie asked.
-Look.- Marcus said.
The cold was created by Ghost. With his new powers he could lower the temperature, turning much of the environment into ice.
-Feel the icy cold of death.- Ghost said.
Virosa was afraid of Ghost and began to back away, but she wasn't going to let him get away. She prepared to launch her final attack.
-GHOSTLY BREATH.- Ghost shouted.
Ghost took a deep breath and released a breeze so cold that it completely froze Virosa. The battle was over and Ghost had won.
Ghost returned to her normal form.
-Girls, I did it.- Ghost said.
Her friends ran to congratulate Ghost. They praised her for how amazing she was. Marcus also approached to talk to her.
-Ghost, I... owe you an apology.- Marcus said.
Marcus showed regret for what he said to Ghost earlier.
-Before I told you that you didn't take things seriously to be a heroine but today you have shown that you are worthy of being one. I'm sorry.- Marcus said.
Ghost saw that his teacher was very sorry about what happened before and gave him a hug to cheer him up.
-It was all thanks to having good friends and a teacher like you.- Ghost said.
-Thank you.- Marcus said.
Everyone was very happy that things were going to be fixed, but there was still something left to do.
-Oh, right. I have to separate the monster's spirit from Virosa's body.- Marcus said.
Marcus invoked the soul-separating staff to separate the monster's spirit from Virosa's frozen body. Marcus used the staff and Virosa returned to her human form. She was a young woman of about 18 years old.
-She's just a girl. Ghost, how long will it take to thaw?.- Marcus asked.
-I don't know. It's the first time I've frozen someone.- Ghost answered.
-Then I'll thaw her. TRANSFORMATION!.- Marcus shouted.
Marcus turned into his witch form and used a fire spell to thaw Virosa.
-Hey... what happened?.- Virosa asked.
Virosa was a little disoriented from being frozen. Until she saw who was in front of her and came to her senses.
-You guys! What have you done? They took my power away from me. I won't be able to get revenge on those they called "The mushroom girl" anymore.- Virosa said.
-Did you turn into a monster to get revenge?.- Ghost asked.
-Yes, and I would have succeeded if it weren't for you, meddling girls. And your stupid teacher.- Virosa said. (Sorry, sometimes I can't resist.)
Everyone stared at what Virosa said.
An hour later. The same old police officers came to take Virosa away.
-Let me guess. You have no idea why that girl wanted to hurt you, right?.- Frederic asked.
-Exactly. Honestly, officer, I don't know why these things happen to us.- Marcus answered.
Officer Frederic sighed, they always gave him the same answer when he questioned them.
-Is there anything else you want to say?.- Bob asked.
-Yes, officer. Now the five of us have superpowers!. Isn't that great?.- Ghost asked.
Officer Bob had no idea what he was talking about. He never makes sense when he questions the Grimwoods.
-Yeah... great.- Bob answered.
-Well, Bob, let's go.- Frederic said.
The officers got into the patrol car and drove off. Marcus and the girls said goodbye to them. They are always there when they are called.
In the spider queen's lair. Tirannica had learned of Virosa's defeat through her little spider spies.
-ANOTHER FAILURE!.- Tirannica shouted.
She was furious. She roared and destroyed the cave.
-You are all useless!.- Tirannica said.
She was already tired of failures. No possessed had managed to bring the Grimwood girls to her.
-Does it take an army to bring those girls?.- Tirannica asked.
After saying that, an idea occurred to her.
-That's it!.- Tirannica said.
On one side of the cave, Doby and Grogg were still stuck to the wall.
-Mistress, please give us another chance.- Doby said.
-We promise you won't regret it.- Grogg said.
Tirannica wasn't one to give second chances but it occurred to her that they could be useful for something she had in mind.
-Okay. I'll give them another chance.- Tirannica said.
Tirannica took Doby and Grogg down from the wall.
-Thank you, Mistress.- Doby said.
-Thank you very much.- Grogg said.
-Don't waste this last chance I've given you.- Tirannica said.
The spider queen retired to her chambers.
In Grimwood. The girls were celebrating that they all had powers now.
-Girls. Finally the five of us have the same powers.- Sibella said.
-Now we can all be a team.- Winnie said.
-I want to see what the spider queen will do now.- Elsa said.
-She won't have a chance with all of us together as a team.- Tanis said.
Marcus stared at the girls. At first he refused to let the girls have powers so as not to expose them to danger but in this time, they have shown growth, confidence, courage and wisdom. They were no longer the same girls he met at the beginning. Now they were a team of heroines.
-Girls, I know you're all very excited but we're forgetting something important.- Ghost said.
-What?.- Sibella asked.
-Our name. Every superhero team must have a name.- Ghost answered.
The girls hadn't thought about that, it didn't seem to matter but they were going to be heroines who save people. They were going to need a name when people see them come to the rescue.
-What are our names?.- Winnie asked.
The Grimwood girls are going to need a name for their team of heroines.
