The laboratory was completely flooded, the water was pouring from the windows. Bill, my father and the professor reached to the front door, Bill opened it until the water pushed them back.
On the other hand, Celia, Steven, Chuck, Stella and I turned into humans again, but Fly kept his fish form until he collided with metal. When all the water was gone, I started coughing from all the water I had accidentally swallowed.
-Felicity!-My brother (now human) exclaimed. He went to hug me and I returned it with joy.
-Guys, you're okay!-Said our parents who were in front of us. The four of us hugged each other with relief.
On the other hand, my aunt and Anna looked at their children and exclaimed with joy:
-Celia!-My aunt said.
-Charles!-Anna said.
-Mom!-They both exclaimed at the same time.
Each one went with their mother and they hugged each other.
-Stella!-Lisa said, taking Stella in her arms and Bill hugging her-Oh my girl!-
-They made it!-The professor said happily-They all made it hooray!-
However, Bill's expression changed when he realized that someone was missing.
-Where's Fly?-he asked.
We all looked at Bill in surprise, Fly was gone! Chuck looked at the antidote bottle which was completely empty.
-No…-I gasped.
Chuck and I looked at each other and we both ran towards the stairs.
The rest followed us upstairs and found us on the floor. Chuck had a small fish that looked exactly like Fly in his hands.
-Talk to me, Fly...say something...-Chuck exclaimed softly-Don't do this to us...-
-Please Fly...don't go-I said in a low voice.
There was no response as Chuck put Fly in a small fish tank. I could hear Lisa's sad moans as Stella walked towards us.
-Fly?-she asked.
-Oh no…-Bill gasped.
-Fly…-Chuck cried desperately-Don't give up, okay? I'll find a way to help you, there's gotta be a way!-Chuck, with the fish tank in his hands. He stood up and addressed the professor-Do something, make a new potion!-
-I'm sorry...-Said the professor-It's too late, I warned him but he didn't listen...-
Lisa fell into her husband's arms and he hugged her to comfort her. I couldn't help but shed a few tears, Steven realized and went to hug me, Celia also came over to comfort me. Anna and my aunt could only look on in worry.
-No, a time machine! You have to have a time machine right?-Chuck shouted-I mean turn back the clock before sunset!-
-I'm sorry, Chuck…-the professor said hopelessly.
-Charles…Can't you see?-Anna told him to calm him down-It's too late-
-NO! No it's not too late!-
Chuck walked over to a table, moving some things around, but it only got worse as he dropped the fish tank and broke it.
-Fly! Fly, are you okay, Fly!?-Chuck exclaimed desperately.
-Charles…-His mother continued talking.
-NO, STAY AWAY FROM ME!-He shouted while he had Fly in his hands.
-Charles, here let me…-Anna begged.
-NO!-He shouted before stumbling and taking Fly into the air.
Anna tried to catch it, but it slipped and she ended up stepping on it! We all gasped in shock.
-NOOO!-Chuck shouted-NO!-
-Hey!-A familiar male voice said-Can somebody give me a hand?-An arm came out of a metal structure-Over here!-
Fly (in his human form) with a little effort was able to get up, and gave a weak smile to his family.
-Fly!-Bill and Lisa exclaimed at the same time.
Chuck stood speechless in confusion as Bill, Lisa and Stella ran towards Fly. Celia and I were a little surprised to see that Fly was fine, Anna grabbed the fish she had stepped on, which turned out to be a fake one.
-"Californian fly fish"-Anna read the label that the fish had on the bottom.
Once Fly had hugged his family, he saw his cousin who looked at him in surprise. Fly took Stella out of his arms, and limping (because he was still injured from the previous battle) went towards Chuck with a smile.
-Hey...you and Celia have had a great plan-He said, leaning on Chuck while he put his cap on him.
-Fly!-I exclaimed with joy.
I ran to Fly and hugged him, accidentally knocking him to the ground, he complained a little about his broken leg.
-Oh no! Are you ok?-
-Yes, don't worry, I'm glad to see you again-He told me with a few tears.
He gave me a big hug and I returned it crying with joy. Chuck, who was standing, was looking at us until he heard a female voice calling him:
-Chuck…-
Celia was in front of him, with a smile. I helped Fly up while Chuck looked at Celia, blushing.
-I never saw you with your hair down…-Chuck told her-It looks pretty good on you-
-Oh really? Celia responded, blushing a little while touching her hair-My bun must have come undone and I didn't realize it…-
She began to speak until Chuck approached until they were a few meters away from each other, Celia realized seconds later and blushed a little more, but her expression changed drastically.
-Hey...about what happened during that...-She told him, regretful for what she did minutes ago-Could we forget it...?-
Chuck interrupted her by holding her hand, then he brought Celia closer until he kissed Celia on the mouth. Celia was shocked for a moment, but they stayed like that for a few seconds, until they separated and Chuck told her:
-Celia, I also like you-Chuck said-I would love to be your boyfriend-
Fly and I were shocked at what Chuck said, but Celia had a big smile and accepted without hesitation, they both hugged and gave each other another kiss. Anna and my aunt Elsa were left speechless, but happy for their children who now were a couple. Fly and I headed towards Chuck and Celia, I left Fly with Chuck and I headed towards Celia.
-You did well, Celia-I told her, ruffling her hair. Celia hugged me and I happily returned it.
