Chapter 5: The Rebellion  

Lorelai lie in bed that night, she couldn't sleep as memories flooded back to her in her head. So she got our of bed and rummaged through her stuff as she found what she was looking for: A scrapbook! Lorelai opened it and flipped through it. She saw a portrait of herself as a little girl, her sister Emina where she was born paralyzed through her legs and had to be in the wheelchair. And there was her father, Petrov. Petrov had always favorite Emina and despised while also neglected Lorelai for being different since birth. Then, Lorelai turned the page and found the picture of the university she went to. She recalled the memory when she arrived on her first day, where everyone was staring at her and a confused Lorelai thought she had something stuck in her teeth or her underskirt was showing so she didn't noticed. Finally, she was annoyed as she explained the gawking students that she was no witch and she wasn't a monster. But that didn't help with the teasing or the whispering about her. But she didn't care anymore, she was looking for people to approve of her for anything. She didn't have much friends. She knew her father was so shameful of her, the same thing goes for Emina. She loved her father and sister but she couldn't help but feel like a burden to them. Emina was always called 'Emma' by Lorelai and everyone else from the university. In her days of the university, Lorelai focused on her grades rather than beauty or socializing with others. But she finally meets her polar opposite by the name of Sianna, her rival at the time who cared about was being popular as well as having lots of friends. The two girls were forced to share a room as roommates, the two of them were not too thrilled with bunking with each other. Sianna found Lorelai unusual, peculiar and hard to describe as a person. But Lorelai hate her for being blonde, a snob, and wearing prettier clothes as well as looking all nice yet gorgeous. They hated each other but yet, their paths did cross. One day, things changed when there was a party but Lorelai didn't have many friends so she was a wallflower. Sianna saw how lonely she was, she suddenly felt guilty for her and decided to sit with her. Since that day, those two became from rivals to friends as they sat at lunch together and told each other secrets. Lorelai used to keep a necklace from her deceased mother, who died after Emina was born and Sianna told her that she is engaged to Prince Asmund, but he doesn't know yet as Sianna is waiting for the right moment to tell him. That's when, Sianna decides to give Lorelai a makeover to help her feel more prettier and more confident in herself. It helped Lorelai make her noticeable afterwards and soon, Asmund noticed. That's when, Lorelai bonds with Asmund as she develops a crush on Asmund but she couldn't confess her feelings to him because he would reject her and he already has Sianna. Her spirits were risen when she heard she was promoted to meet Maugris, the most powerful and great wizard of the West. But she was allow to bring one person to the west and she decides to let Sianna to come along, which she accepts since she always wanted go to the West. The two friends had a great time! Seeing the sights before Lorelai got to meet Maugris, the wizard who is all powerful & great of the West! In the present, Lorelai smiled at those good times she had! Then, she flipped the page and found one for her sister Emina and a boy by the name of Jimmy Talon, son of Marshall Talon! He and Emina were inseperable, it was one day when a happy Emina told Lorelai some good news: "Oh Lory, you won't believe this! Guess what? Lady Sianna found the perfect boy for me. It's James, James Talon. Isn't it wonderful?" She said. Lorelai smiled, "That's great Emma, I'm so glad to hear that you're going to the party with someone. Jimmy's a nice guy." She said. Emina beamed with a nod, "Yes he is." She replied. Lorelai remembered seeing them at the party, Jimmy hands Emina a cup of punch and Emina took a sip. She was surprised how good it tastes, "What's in the punch Jimmy?" She asked. "Oh! It's my mother's speciality. Lemons, pears, and melons." said Jimmy. "Mmm, it's good." Emina said. She grinned at him and Jimmy smiled back. He then said, "Um, Emina?" Emina glanced at him, "Yes Jimmy?" Jimmy looked a bit nervous, "Listen, there's something I think you need to know...Why I brought you here." He said. "Oh Jimmy, I already know why you brought me here." said Emina. "You...You do?" Jimmy asked. Emina begin to have tears in her eyes as she said: "It's because I'm in this chair, right? You feel sorry for me so you ask a silly girl like me, isn't it?" Jimmy felt bad, "No, not at all...It's not that at all, it's because you are so beautiful. You're so beautiful and I think you are so fair and intelligent. You know, it's not about being not able to do anything, you can make the most out of it." So Jimmy decided to give Emina the best time of her life! Back in the present, Lorelai closed up the book and puts it aside. "Oh Emma....James....Where did it all went wrong?" She whispered. She thought about that agonizing memory: The day Lorelai gave Emina the shoes known as Talaria, which caused Emina to walk. Tears of joy, Emina confessed to the surprised Jimmy of her feelings however Jimmy admits that he was in love with Sianna! Heartbroken by the rejection; Emina attempted to use a love spell but it backfired as it almost made Jimmy's heart explode. Lorelai saves him by using metal parts however Jimmy came back all wrong as Emina screamed in horror at the sight of Jimmy, who has a grotesque pig face! Jimmy was terrified at what happened and fleed in shame. But things got worst, so much worst....First, there was that awful hurricane and Lorelai was looking for her sister however she was shocked to find the remains of her sister was her feet which had the Talaria shoes. Lorelai was in anguish however she decided to get her favorite teacher, Mr. Semolina, for help. He resurrected a dead lion once, maybe he can help with Emina. When Lorelai got to the university, she saw the lights in Mr. Semolina's office was off so she went in and turned them on. What she saw was a horrifying scene of Mr. Semolina's corpse, his own nape was red and there was a puddle of that awful color on the floor! Lorelai flee the scene, crying and struggling for breath! However, she bumped into Asmund which she wish she didn't because she must look like a crying mess. But she managed to tell Asmund what had happened and they talked for awhile in a garden where they confess their love for one another. But then, they were discovered by the guards as Lorelai escaped while Asmund was being lead away to be beatened to death. Lorelai was in a panic as she try to use a spell to save him however she heard a crunch sound of bones as well as a sickening sound of flesh ripped apart. Lorelai screamed, "ASMUND!!!!!" That was when she fell into a state of grief as she heard voices beckoning to her and that's when she became the evil sorceress! In the present; She was guilty of many things, she remembered killing children and women as well as other people and animals! And then, she remembered that one excruciating memory of seeing Una in pain: She recalled how she was dressed in a long black dress that hid her feet, her hair was frizzy and messy while she was a sight not to look at. Lorelai demands the Talaria shoes but Una begs her to release her friends but Lorelai tortures her mentally that her friends are in the dungeon where they are in deadly fights against brain craving zombies, heart eating beasts, and fear mangling monsters! Una fell to her knees, horrified by the thought as Lorelai laughs at her despair. "Oh mother, I'm frightened..." Una whispered, "I'm frightened mama." In her emotional state; Lorelai let out a scream and she begin to wreck everything in her house as she screeched out while wrecking everything: "WHAT HAVE I DONE?!" over and over again. Once she managed to calm down; Lorelai begins to cry as she thought of them all who are dead: "Emma....Mr. Semolina....Asmund.....ASMUND!!!" She yelled. She panted, and panted. Her emotional sobs were like a lump in her heart. "I try to make good but I end up failing every single time, I once told myself...I would never do a good deed again but at that moment, my grieving heart became polluted with monsters and revenge boiling in my soul." She thought. Rising her head up slowly, Lorelai said to herself: "No good deed goes unpunished, more like a bad deed going unpunished. I will punish the wicked and if I will make good, so I'll make...Good." She raised up to the ground while knew that the people of the West should know that she is no longer wicked. Though, they won't believe her; she knows what she has to do.

That night; Sandra was trying to get some rest but she was watching TV and found a news report on Karina and her violent interview while with the most stuck up diva name Juno: She taunted her about her reputation: "Making enough hardcores lately? What's your next one, Banana meets Fillet?" remarked Karina in a blunt manner. Juno glared at her, "Shut up, Karina." She hissed. "Well, look at those apples! Any man would wanna a good squeeze on those." Karina replied, gesturing to her buxom chest. "Shut the hell up, Karina!" Juno claimed. Just when it seemed like it was over; Karina smirked at her and said, "She sucks on nuts and gets paid big money." Juno glared at her. that's when Karina discover something so scandalous about Juno on her phone that's too shocking for words. "You crazy witch!" Juno interjected. Karina laughed, "I'm kinda sick in the head, did you know that? Or are you too busy flipping your skirt for guys to see your panties." She said, "Help me out here, you are a tease right so how does it explain these catty pictures of you with wearing a blonde wig with a bikini. And look here's you with...Oooh, I'm not going to say because of 'children' in the room. Beauty and brains are mutually exclusive for you, 'cause your a brainless beauty. Showing off your panties, flashing your 'high beams', and going naked. 'Bend and snap' while bending over and showing off. How can you be a brainless beauty while trying to be a whistleblower. There's also a fine line between a holy maiden and a temptress. Tell me how you managed to fill in that slot, give it to me you hooker." Juno looked at her with a glare, "I am not a hooker." She said. Karina nodded, "I'll bet you are not but hookers are the paradigm of purity right?" You're beautiful? You being pretty, popular, usually rich girl fawned after by boys but presented as being vain and petty at the same time. You sleep with four boys in exchange for a necklace. But then others calls you out for your bargain. And everyone knows, everyone knows you do sleep with guys...What they don't know is that you're a nymphomaniac. Am I right? You are a nymphomaniac, that's why you're strutting your stuff." She droned on while sneering and chuckling. "Come on, admit it! You are a tramp and you have a lot of guys to sleep with! You are a so called socialite with a dumb blonde complex and a loose girl for having five thousand boyfriends where they submit to their advances. You wanna have, like, ten thousand of their children! And then you're going to neglect them while banging more of those guys of yours!!!! If people you don't even know look at me and want to shag you, you really have a shot at being a model. A model for a pleasure seeker's fantasy magazine. For all we know you could be a topless model on page three. A glamour pin up girl, a trampy bombsell, or the most popular girl in school looking down her nose at the frumpy girl in glasses. You're also usually the princess of a wealthy and influential family, the star of the school or head sister of the influential college sorority house, who is a network of local celebrity, influence and wealth to exploit. You adept at putting on a friendly facade, the better to lull the unwary into letting defenses down. You're also quite the seductress, and consequently, all the boys fight amongst themselves — sometimes literally — to be your oppressed boyfriend. All this leaves you with the belief that you can do whatever you like without consequences. But in reality you're an ugly, boring, and totally ordinary vamp and you know it." She ranted. As she said that; Juno was so shocked that she couldn't move nor speak. Finally; she said to her: "Screw. You." "Not unless she's a hot to trot." Karina commented. She laughed in hysterics, "I can't believe a freakin' loser like her would be named after a courtesan, she's a bi-otch! I bet she bites people for money." Karina remarked. She seized her shoulders screaming: "NOW YOU'VE ASKED FOR IT, YOU BITCH!" Juno clawed at Karina and pulled her hair as she shouted, "HOW ABOUT I MAKE YOU PUKE OUT WHAT YOU HAVE FOR BREAKFAST THIS MORNING?! YOUR FACE IS RUINING, HUH YOU SHIT-HEAD, AND YOU AND ME? WE WERE NEVER FRIENDS!!!! YOU MOTHER-HUMPIN' PRINCESS WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TRUE SUFFERING IS, AND YOUR FRIENDS HERE ARE PLAIN, UGLY AND SHE KNOWS IT!!!!" The two girls got pulled off by the interviewer as Juno screamed back: "I'll sue you, you strumpet! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK ME TO STYLE MY HAIR?!" Karina could not believe her ears what that girl said, "YOU ARE SELFISH, NO WONDER I HATE YOUR GUTS!!! I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL YOU LOW LIFE SOCIALITE!!!!!" Later, there was an interview where she expresses her hatred for the glamour life as people trying to sell their souls and the life of beauty and fame is nothing more than just a bunch of baloney because it is so cruel there: "I am so annoyed with Juno and her stupid sisters. I'm also annoyed at how the good status kind of celebrities have to be treated like trash, those that went through hell are also being treated the same way while the bad and annoying, fallen from grace bums and jerks are being treated like kings and queens! It's so crazy, so unbearable! But one day, I'm going to make those bastards feel like trash and make the good ones look like good kings and queens." Karina was exclaiming in the interview, "And when I learn I was going to be with Juno for a tonight interview on this superficially crappy, band of sadists and tormentors of a celebrity news channel but I am the politician's daughter so I have no choice but to attend.....UGH! WHAT A BITCH JUNO WAS!!!!" Sandra flicked it off, "My god, what a crazy chick. I don't know who spit in her soda this morning but geez! Get over it." She muttered, "I sure don't want to meet her anytime soon." Sandra turned on her side and fell asleep. In the next day, Monica is told by Nana about how some children are mistreated as well as turning them into killing machine. Monica suggested to go see Atlas, who is a politician and a 'good man' so that's what they did. There they meet a tall man with wisps of white hair and a seemingly friendly person. Monica and Nana are greeted by Atlas where they decide to talk to him in private. Once alone, Monica and Nana looked at each other with nervous expressions. "I'm here... we're here to alert you that something bad is happening..." Monica started to say but Atlas cuts in, "I already know why you've come." He said. Monica was amazed however he also adds, "Of course, you must prove yourself..." Monica was confused, "But how?" She asked. "Oh, I don't know. Something to test you adeptness..." He said, thinking for a moment but he snapped his fingers, "I know! Madame Evelyn, come forth!" Monica and Nana turned around, "Madame Evelyn?" Monica gasped. Atlas smiled, "I believe you're well acquainted with my new secretary." He said. Monica and Nana couldn't believe it, "Secretary?" They both said in unison. Madame Evelyn smiled, "Oh, yes dearest, I've risen up in the world. You'll find that Mr. Atlas  is a very generous man. If you do something for him, he'll do much for you." She said. "What do you want me to do?" Monica asked. Atlas brought a young boy who looked mentally challenged: "Well, this is one of my patients, Atlas. He looks so sad and cannot make a sound. I believe maybe he needs some treatment." He said. He put some pads on the boy, who wasn't unfazed by it until the electric shocks made him feel pain. The little boy screams and begins to twitch. Monica got scared, "What happened? Is something wrong?" She asked. Madame Evelyn shook her head, "No just a phase of the demonstration, dearie." She assured her. Nana was frightened by this sight, "No, stop you're hurting him!" She protested. Just then, the boy was emotionless however there was something different in his eyes. Blood thirsty feeling. "As done it." Atlas announced. "How can we turn him to his normal self?" Nana asked. "Did you two planned all this?" Madame Evelyn smiled at the boy, "They make perfect experiments, don't they?" She said to Atlas. Nana was horrified, "Experiments?!" She gasped. Atlas smirked, "You're right, that's a harsh word... how about weapons? That's what they'll be really. They'll go around the world and kill all the people of race, culture, and religion....Those subhuman mongrels! The world is your oyster, now! You have so many opportunities. You both do." He said. Nana was shocked, she could not believe it and she remembered her past: "NO!" She shouted. Then, she turned and run away! "Nana!" Madame Evelyn called out. Monica called out for her too, "Nana! I am so sorry, Mr. Atlas. I'll get her back! Nana, wait!" She went after her! Atlas was worried that she would exposed them and they would lose the money they gained for tormenting children of their conditions: "We have to get her back. She knows too much." Atlas said. Madame Evelyn put a hand on his shoulder, "Don't worry, I'll handle it." She assured him. Just then, Madame Evelyn was about to kidnapped Nana however Lorelai cries out a spell, then she leaps down as she said: "Madame Evelyn! I thought I ran into you here." Madame Evelyn couldn't believe it, "Lorelai! You're alive?!" She gasped. "What did you do to him?" Lorelai demanded. Madame Evelyn stuck her nose in the air, "It was for his own good." She replied. "If this is for his own good, then why is he screaming?" demanded Lorelai. "It's just the procedure, that's all." Madame Evelyn answered, "What else should we done?" Furious, Lorelai cried out: "Well, somebody has to... HELP THE SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN!!!" She shouted. She used spells and magic as Madame Evelyn was frightened, "What's happening?" She gasped. Lorelai then saw Una who cried out for her name but Madame Evelyn realized the deception as she went to report to Maugris, and he was not too happy. Later, Monica stood up as her head faced downward while Maugris sat on his throne. Earlier, he summoned her to his palace. "So you and your friends knew didn't you? Those same people I had honored as heroes knew that Lorelai was still alive." Monica nodded, "Yes your powerfulness....But I can explain about that---!" She protested. "SILENCE!!!!" Maugris thundered, "It seems Una Norman, Conner Sullivan, Aiden Easton, and Fiachra Vester have been conspiring with Lorelai's wicked ways in order to regain honor." Monica was shocked as she shake her head, "No! You don't understand, She wasn't evil at all...She was--" She tried to explain but Maugris wouldn't let her finished, "LIES!!! ALL A FABRICATION!!!!" He shouted. Once he calmed down; Maugris then said something that stunned Monica: "As punishment for this insolence; you are forbidden to come into contact with Una, her friends, or Lorelai or even Sianna for that matter. Una, Conner, Aiden, and Fiachra will be stripped from their honors while apprehended Lorelai for execution. You will be exiled and branded as a traitor to the West." Monica kept her head down and she was silent until she spoke out, "Sorry Maugris...." She raised her head as she continued, "....But I cannot accept orders like that!" And she flee from the palace! Unsurprised by this; Maugris watched her go as he said in a soft, broken tone in his voice: "You disappoint me Monica....Well then, you leave me with no other choice." In the meantime, Monica ran and ran but she didn't stop no matter if the crowd of guards chased with torches and pitchfork however Monica was rescued by a helicopter where Erica calls her out. Monica climbs the rope ladder and managed to get away to a safe place. Then, Monica and her friends learn that there was a woman by the name of Nikita Arsene who is sending a group of misfits after Monica and the others by the name of Phoenix so Monica and her friends managed to stay off the streets from now on because they don't want anyone to find them. However, they had to act now with whatever enemies cross their paths. Just then, Monica and the others get an unexpected guest bursting through the doors. It was Enya, who smiles as she said: "So, do you mind me if I get a membership to help you guys out of this hellhole or what?"

Meanwhile; a young man with dark hair playing the piano. A beautiful and solemn woman stopped to listen, she waited until he was finished before approaching, "Not bad." She said. The young man with dark hair looked up, "Who are you?" He asked. "Nikita Arsene, and you are?" The woman introduced herself. "Andel Pankraz." The young man replied. "I have an arrangement for you, I mean...If you're up for it." Nikita said. Andel looked at her, "What would that be?" He asked. Nikita smiled. In the next instant, there was a young man in his jail cell as he was reading but heard the doors opened and placed the book down as he looked out to see Nikita approaching. "Who are you, are you a god or an angel?" asked the velvet-like voice. Nikita smirked, "A god? Please, not even close but no, I'm not that or an angel." She said. The young man smirked over to Andel. "Oh, really? And who's the brooding guy with you?" He asked. Nikita looked at Andel and answered, "You're partner." Andel looked at her with wide eyes. Even the young man looked surprised, "What now?" He demanded. Andel wasn't too pleased with this, "You gotta be kidding me, he's my new partner?" He said. "Just for a little while. I'll find you someone better, OK?" Nikita said. Andel rolled his eyes, "Fine." He said. The young man grinned, he chuckled silently. "Well, well, this should be fun." He replied. As they were both in the same room, the young man was feeling pretty chatty with Andel, who was just silent as monk. "So, how did you climb aboard this club? Huh?" The young man asked. Andel looked slightly annoyed, "Not that you want to know." He said. The young man chuckled, "Ah, mystery guy. It's complicated. Yada-yada. Well, mine's complicated too. I'm a stowaway and a thief. I don't belong anywhere." He said. "I see." Andel said. The young man looked at him, "So, you're my partner eh? I'll try to make it memorable for you, my good man." He said. Andel sighed, "You already have." He said. "By the way, I didn't get your name Mr. Brood." The young man said. "That goes both ways, Andel Pankraz. Singer. Songwriter. Pianist. Composer. Actor. Not like it's a big thing." Andel replied. The young man looked even more smug, "Signar. Poet. Photographic memory. Stowaway. Thief. Only the most interesting man in any woman or man's life....Heh, I don't want you think I'm a freak or anything." He said. Andel smiled just a bit, "I don't mind it but keep your personal space from me and maybe I might call you friend." He said. A big buff man who was busy punching a bag and working hard when he heard the door opened and stopped. "HEY! Who goes there?!" He exclaimed. "You're Gryphon, right?" Nikita asked, walking towards him. The muscle head glared at her, "Who wants to know?" He demanded. Nikita replied, "I have assigned something special for you." Gryphon looked at her in surprise, "Me? Why me?" He asked. "I believe we have a situation on our hands and I believe we could use you." Nikita said with a sneaky grin on her face. Gryphon was intrigued, he smirked. "Heh, I don't know. Do I get paid out of this?" He remarked. While Una helps her out with organizing the files; Monica came across one file and her face fell. "Ah, I heard of these guys. They're Phoenix." Monica remarked. Una looked confused, "What's Phoenix?" She asked. Monica looked at her and said, "The most powerful elite team, those guys are friggin' badasses. You better stay away from them, they're like a drug--A familiar taste of poison. There's Darwin Pythias, he is an undercover mole. You can't know if he's a friend, enemy, but you can't trust him. At all! Latona 'Leto', the Dark Lady. Exotic, sexy, deadly, crepuscular chick. She's as lethal as a belladonna or a white oleander. A hot femme fatale, she plays manipulative games with others. Gryphon, the brute who can beat up anyone. He's a muscle bound meathead. Signar, the clever guy with brains and wit. Better watch out for him, he's pretty sneaky. Phoebe, she's OK. She's quiet, but she seems snobby. Both virtuous and sexy. And she can kick ass too--A martial artist. This brooding, dark haired, calm, stoic, but he's third in command. His name is Andel Pankratz. Oh, and he's not the only one...Nathaniel Cobbins, but he's known as Nathan. This guy is a troublemaker and a jerkass. Looks aren't everything, so don't trust him. Ever!" Monica informed her friend. Una nods, understanding this. Just then, Monica and her friends saw from afar that there was a battle going on! Monica, Conner, his friends, and the others were shocked to see what was going on as they saw it all. Conner saw a strange blonde haired guy, he looked and approached the gang. "Who are you?" demanded Conner. The young man speaked out, "So, you're Conner--The surivor." He stood up and spoke, "At last, we meet." Conner looked at him, "And you?" He asked. The mysterious guy smiled smugly as he glanced at Ferrand, "Nathan Cobbins. This is my gang and we are Phoenix." replied the young man. Monica was shocked by this, "This is the gang called Phoenix? Oh crap, I can't believe this." She thought. "I wasn't expecting them to be like this....This dangerous." Conner glared at Nathan, "How do you know who I am?" He demanded. "Oh, I know about you. A shipwreck with your beloved crew in pieces and buried from that horrible storm. How dreadful, isn't it? It seems like the pain your heart still aches as also the fear of going on a ship again because the crash left you traumatized." Nathan explained. Conner quivered at this, Una glanced at him in concerned. Conner was prepared to fight Nathan, but he just walked passed Conner and appeared before Una. "It's you." He only said and then he seized her jaw, pulled her in and kissed her right on the lips. Everyone was shocked at this sight, Monica and Conner couldn't believe what they were seeing. Una was lost for a moment before she pushed him away in shock while she admits as she blushed: "I....I never been kissed before by anyone, that was....that was my first....my first kiss...!" Una covered her mouth to muffle her sobs. Nathan looked at her, "Your first kiss huh? Well, I didn't want you to miss it. I mean, anyone could have missed but I guess, it's so significance and something unexpected. I guess that makes you a kissed chaste maiden. So innocent and kissed." He taunted with a laugh. Monica felt anger inside her, she charged at him. But he deflected it. Monica couldn't believe it, "How the helll?" She thought. "You know, my power can deflect any of your attacks." replied Nathan. "Hmph, kissed me anyday buddy and make me cry like you did to her." Monica snapped. "Come on, she should remember that. And I came what I got." Nathan said. He and his group turned and left! Miranda was shaken, Conner and Monica comforted her but it wouldn't be the last time they saw Nathaniel Cobbins and his gang called Phoenix! Unknown to her, Erica went to work of the stadium and cleaned the empty locker room. Just then, a noise made her jump and she went to investigate. As she found the supply room; it was vacant as she seems. Before she knew it; she could feel herself strangled by a male's legs as they try to choke the life out of her but Erica uses the training martial arts against the person trying to kill her and she turned around to see her opponent. A hooded figure with a staff and a mask over his nose and mouth, "Are you a competitor?" He asked. Erica could hear him, "No, I'm just a cleaning girl with a few moves. Are you a competitor?" She replied. "Go ahead, I will apprehend you!" said the man. Just before the fight erupted, a voice called out: "DARWIN! That is enough! What is going on?" In walk the young man by the name of Nathan Cobbins! He has a slim, toned, and muscular body. He is average, slightly taller and has spiky dirty blond hair reaching the back of his neck. The outfit he wore was a navy blue opened jacket with silvery fur edges on it. He also had a skin-tight white shirt underneath. Darwin drop his position while kneeling down, "My liege. Forgive me, the girl claims she's a cleaning janitor. She could be lying." He said. "No, she's telling the truth." said the blond haired guy. "What?" Darwin asked, giving Erica a look. "I was told about this, but never mind that; I'll deal with you later so go." The guy said. Darwin bowed before he talked to Erica alone: "Sorry about that, he's a servant and one of my comrades. I'm Cobbins, Nathaniel Cobbins. So, you're the cleaning girl huh. I saw what you did--Nice moves." He said. "Um, yeah. I'm just a beginner." claimed Erica. Why was she feeling shy around this guy? "Relax Erica, I didn't come here to finish the job or bring you down. In fact, maybe you could be a great worth to me." Nathan said. "Ha, like hell." Erica said. And walked away. In the meantime; Tina was walking but didn't see where she was going. She was reading research on a group rivaled with Phoenix. She has never heard of these people. However, she crashed into someone--or two rather--But when she looked up, Nathan and Andel glared down at her. "You....!" Nathan growled. "....Tina Jett." finished Andel. Tina gasped, "What the--No, it can't be!" She knew who they were! "Yeah, the gang who rises from the ashes, Phoenix! What's the matter, scared?" taunted Nathan. "I'm not scared of you, not both of you." replied Tina, she turned around and walked away proud. "Hey Tina, we wanna ask you if you could join us." called Nathan. Tina laughed with no humor in her voice, "Like hell. What makes you think I'd join you guys?" She snapped. Nathan smirked, "You really are stubborn. You'll be sorry for messing with us." He said. "Ooh, I think I'll live." mocked Tina, turning away but Nathan was still persistent. "We'll be waiting for you or else!" Tina kept walking, she didn't turn back but those guys will get their just desserts if they try anything.

Some time later, three guys get into trouble with some bullies: A leader, and his henchmen. They start picking on the guy and his friends but Sandra couldn't stand the taunting any longer! She marches over as she couldn't believe who it was: "No way, it's Nathan Cobbins!" thought Sandra. Then she saw a familiar section of two others. "Shit just got real! It's Signar! And Gryphon!" thought Sandra. Just before Nathan could attack, Sandra blocks his attack and send him backwards. Nathan and his friends was stunt by this, Sandra glares him. "You want to beat them? You're going have to go through me first." she said. Nathan looks at her before grinning, "Ohhh, I'm so scared. A girl's gonna hurt me." He taunted and his friends chuckled. Sandra's eyebrow raised, "I'm not just a girl, pal!" She replied. Taran simpers at her more as well as his friends, "Huh? Then what are ya then?" He asked. "Well, your about to find out." Sandra said with a playful grin. "Bring it!" Nathan cried, charging at her but Sandra dodges the attack. "Whoa, she's fast!" exclaimed Gryphon. "Not good enough, I can handle her!" bragged Nathan. "You should give up because I can defeat you." Sandra said. But she was punched hard, Nathan and his boys laughed at her but they became afraid as Sandra's appearance changed. Her heart was beating, it was like it was nuclear and her blood was pulsing once again! Her eyes turned black as she let out a screech. In another second; Nathan and the others were terrified by what she could do and defeated them. Sandra turned back to normal as she almost fainted but woke up in the medics and she was fine. Later after she recovered; she was waiting with other girls in the room when someone enters. "I'm looking for a girl by the name of Sandra, is she here?" A voice called out. Sandra whirled around and said, "Yes, that's me." But her jaw dropped at who she was looking at. "Andel Pankraz?" She thought. As if on cue, the girls squealed as there was a lot of unison: "Oh my! It's him!" swooned the first. "It's Andel Pankraz." Sandra rolled her eyes, but noticed Andel walked over to her and said, "Come with me, please. I mean, if you don't mind." Sandra shrugged, "Um...OK." She said. After a while of talking, Sandra was shocked to hear what he said. "What? You want me to join you and your gang?" Sandra asked. Andel smiled, "Yes, that's exactly right." He answered. "Why me?" inquired Sandra. "I saw you fighting Nathan and I must say, you are a splendid fighter. We think you're incredible." Andel said. Sandra smirked, "Sure, right." She said. "Why don't you think about it and come back?" Andel suggested. Sandra nodded as she walks away, unknown what might happen next. The next day, while having lunch alone; Rita is approached by Leto. She loudly slammed her bag to the table as she said, "Life sucks, Rita. I feel like I can tell you this. I feel like I can be honest because you won't join us! Look at you, stuffing yourself like a bird while I talk. Strangely comforting...But now that I feel like I know you again that's all changed. It's so nice to know there's someone who's life sucks more than ours." Leto leaned over and whispered, "You know, there's something you don't know. Do you know what that is?" Then, there was a pause as she says: "Conflict will always exist as long as humans are on Earth. Things like murder and war, they have over time become a part of human culture as a whole." Leto leaned inches away as she whispered, "Just like animals, humans weed out the weak until only the strong survive. Under the economy, the people with the most power are the rich. These rich people will literally buy off politicians so their own goals will be heeded. In some cases, the rich have complete control over the news media, so even the information as people get are swayed purposefully. It’s truly ghastly." Another pause and Leto whispered back in Rita's ear, "Clashes between different types of people has always been a part of human nature and history, and the strongest always wins. The tragic things that happen every day in the world are a product of natural capability and choice. Our current approach in the media of condemning and punishing criminals is not adequate, and if we are to curb these behaviors, then we must uncover the underlying causes. This coincides with the goal of incarceration, which is to rehabilitate rather than solely punish those that break the law." Another pause before her soft voice spoke to Rita, "It’s so hard to reconcile how one man can be running a charity race, while another man is building a bomb to blow this person up. Don't think you're alone in thinking other inexplicable acts raise concerns in people’s minds. We are left to question the atrocities that we face in this day and age, but those in the past as well: what can drive living, breathing humans to carry out one of the largest mass murders in history? Why do we want to hurt one another? Perhaps the human tendency to kill and ensue war is in our DNA, but now she contemplates her judgment, trying to figure out if the bad things that humans do are a part of our legacy, or inheritance. Humans are thinking creatures that can betray themselves. It’s not uncommon practice for people to lose themselves in a moment or to commit an act totally unlike yourself. It’s very easy to forget that your idealized self and ideal set of beliefs do not sync with yourself or your actions on a day to day basis. humans do everything with less grace than animals. We use animals as a term to define bad and selfish people and animals are the worst thing, in my opinion. I mean, we are wild. We maintain the traits of babies and wild animals. Humans have lost sensibility about matters, and they see their body as a material thing and a way to have fun. The world is always in a tragedy caused by bad men. Hatred is generated by this generation, especially by greed. The only things humans can do in this world is participate in war. Could this tendency towards brutality be a recent change in our culture? Some factor that was preventing destruction may have existed in our genes but has been unraveled recently. Are humans are born with their thoughts and behavioural traits or if they are learnt? Are you killing because your holy text has told you to? Or because of your instinct to kill?" She then pause shortly and whispered, "Underneath our image of social cohesion; we’re capable of horrific actions. People would subject another innocent human to a lethal punishment, if a credible authority ordered it. Our environment influences how we behave — many times in recent history, when an individual has stood at the ledge of buildings threatening to jump, crowds of hundreds of people shout encouragements to leap. Yet those same people would like probably to believe they are civilised, maybe we can’t understand our capacity for cruelty. Discrimination and other horrendous things in life are still alive and they’re running well through the blood of savage human-beings but not everyone. We’re just like a little child or an animal still learning how to even crawl on this earth." After she was done, she was smirking however Rita, who recovered from her shocked, as she sneer back. "They seem harmless but I have to admit it, I'll bet Nathan is a geek, dork, or some nerdy guy." Rita explained. "And I'll bet Andel might look like a friggin' retired rockstar. So, thank you for your time but no thanks to your offer." She walked away and didn't look back.

A while later; Nathan was looking over the skyline and Andel was sitting by the lake, each of them were thinking about their lives: Nathan and Andel come from a poor household and eventually left with food stamps in one hand and their stuff in the other. In his life; Nathan was in a rough place in his life living in a life of poverty. The people there were so poor they didn’t have much of a say in anything. And on top of that, the foundation of their lives were made from liars and thieves. They didn’t have jobs or money, so lying and thievery were the ways in which to survive. Soars beyond their roots; Andel came from a man who got his mother pregnant and left her as if she was nothing to him. He meets the biological father but wants no good to come to him. He’ll be able to rise above his demons after being held down his entire childhood. This man used and manipulated Andel's mother and broke her down. But there’s no way she’s taking this sitting down. They both were fearlessly seeks a spiritual connection and they leap from the confines of their own inner demons. Instead of being the hunted, Nathan is now the hunter. He wants to get back at those who have wronged him and his family in the past and is now in the position to do so. He has revenge on his father who walked out on them or even the people for trying to wrongfully enslave his life. Eventually the wrongs will be right, putting an end to the injustice. Desperate and broken; Nathan and Andel were going on a crusade, but now they are maybe prisoners of war, punished for all the lives they took through blood and pain, because they thought that the people they thought cared about them was defending them, but it was a dream to think that those bastards was on their side. Man constantly tests their own will, and with this constant test they not only doubt themselves, but also affect the positive aspects of the world around them. It was s time for them to be out in the open so they can be free, the lessons learned on the battlefield of love are only the stepping stones towards the war ahead. They were promised to rid the earth of wrong. But they were the ones wrong, and they lost their kingdom, due to the crusade. They thought they were blessed but they only thought. In the end, they know they aren’t. The good and the evil line says that both sides are hurt, anything can happen in war, but no matter what, anyone can have to always keep on fighting and persevere. Even the holy will be harmed; the good and the bad both suffer from war. Nathan once said, "Who says what’s right is right? Who says what’s wrong is wrong? The way society sees it, stealing is wrong, and unfair to others. But the way poor people, with families, who steal, well, they steal to survive, cause the low-class jobs don’t give enough money as it is. I’m not saying stealing is right. I’m asking what makes it wrong, when you’re doing it for a good reason." He’ll never give up, no matter what direction he has to go in. He’ll fight until the end of the world itself, if that’s what it takes. In the meantime; Andel is known by most, but he's nothing special. He is like a traveler or soldier, who has seen a lot of the world, good and bad. But he can’t get enough of seeing the world and will go on. Only if he got a fortune he’d quit travelling and seeing more of the world. Andel has seen the world. He vows to fight to keep up the good work. He sees the dawn on the horizon and he believes in a better tomorrow. In his heart he is free. He is running away from all others but the very one goal he is after. When he was ordinary. He did not want to taint his life with his shine. So he sets himself free. He tried to keep himself as long as he could and that was selfish of him, but that moment in time was enough to whisper across eternity. He stops thinking when he should think and let things just sink into his mind. His visions are starting to become clearer to him. He is starting to be able to see the light and he can’t keep control on his focus because he wants his heart's desire. Everything he was promised when he made his sacrifice seems to be withering away, he is not willing to consider anything but the worthy.He made a promise that he would wait and he will wait. All the mistakes he’s made are piling up and are starting to form a mountain on which he sits. He learns of how people of lesser rank that he sends to battle are killed due to his command and acknowledges that their death is caused by his own commands. He then realizes his mistakes and takes greater precaution in enabling his people to prosper. All the mistakes that were made yesterday, are coming to get him today and are going to affect his life in the present. He doesn’t want to see that the mistakes are affecting his life in the present. The pressures of life are coming down on him and is testing someone that is close to him to help him if he were to break down. The life that they were living was so stiff that there was just no excitement. There was no fighting and while most people would think that this would be a happy thing. He needs some type of unpredictability in his and he cannot live this stiff lifestyle. He feels as though they will never do more in life, he feels as though he is being buried by the pressures of life and yet he doesn’t care. Andel wants to break down and let go of all the emotions that he has inside. he’s done with living that way. This lifestyle was killing him on the inside. He tried to be someone he’s not, but it didn’t help him. It's not easy to pretend and eventually the reality of one's self comes out. Andel has found out who he is as a person. He understands himself and becomes more self actualized. When some people are afraid of the dark, he thrives off of it and know that the danger is only what he could see. Problems don’t go away because they aren’t being acknowledged. He was once told something: "When you love someone you can pretend you don’t see bad things and it’s less likely you’ll get hurt. But even when you’re with a stranger, problems don’t go away because they aren’t being acknowledged and unfortunately it will never get painless." He remembers not to be afraid of the dark for the problems that are there. Every time again he wants to be able to handle the problem and don’t close his eyes for them but it’s not working and that is driving him crazy. Maybe they actually forget about it all, try to hide the problems and act like everything’s all right. He thinks if they could do that, it could feel like they’re in heaven, like everything is fine and nice. He says he isn’t human anymore, that he’s just became a machine without a soul. Only the outside of him still exists and that’s the shell of what he always dreamt. "The fantasy is your life’s greatest passion and dream. Do you sacrifice your entire being for what you want? Do you see your passion clearly? Or are you being deluded with the idea that you cannot accomplish what you seek?" The words echoing in his head. He is on the path to rehabilitation, and it started when he lost himself, the odds are not in favor, suggesting that the steep upward slope that an individual has to travel. Andel is falling back and he is taking someone with him, "As time goes on, you achieve and fail, you gain and lose, and change so much. I will never forget what I’ve gone through, and because of that, I can go on living. I’m not going to apologize for getting you in trouble, but maybe we’ll see each other again, one day." Andel is reflecting on his life and how he's living it. Everybody wants to be different and separate themselves from others. But he’s thinking about if he could actually want to be different. Some people hope and believe that they can and learn from their past mistakes, to change their character. Andel, however does not believe that this is possible. Life is a game because there is so much that a person must face in order to get through it. Being young is a game of secrets and illusions. With everyone trying to be different, it begins to seem like they’re all playing the same game. A major characteristic is to go against social standards and expectations, a perfect way to describe social interactions, especially when it comes to being the new person in town or high school in general. The game of life can get out of hand. All of a sudden with all of the secrets we’re keeping from the world it can become too much. It seems as if everyone can see right through the act. caught up in the fear of not being themselves and then they remember, it’s all a game. Everything they’re keeping from others is for the sake of that game, so really there’s no need to stress about the lies. Life is such a beautiful thing yet it brings pain to those who live it. Lies are typically seen as a negative thing, it’s beautiful. Which I suppose in a way, it is. There’s something about the game of life that is intriguing. Especially in this case, where it’s as if everyone is wearing a mask and everyone has a secret part of themselves. There’s always more to discover in a person than what people first see. In his past, Andel was passive and violent. All the effort that Andel does to reach his goals, all that is because he works hard. He successful in his dreams, or be always looking for that broken dreams. Andel found a special home in this group and the rawness of this exposes the love he feels for the city. Enjoy each moment of their lives, no matter how, just live it. Nathan and Andel has been flying on Cloud Nine, oblivious to reality. stuck on and they know very well he destroyed. Is this mental breakdown the end they feels? They still flying high of enlightenment, great sorrow comes from this life called mortality. All of the laws of the Universe they’ve broken, all the hearts they’ve broken, have they come to the end of their journey? They're still flying high, they're lost in the dark searching. They wouldn't trade their souls for the lies they are fed, lust after their shine, is this the end of their fight?In a previous life they were the great love of their lives. they've seen them in their dreams. They can’t hold on to the reality because of these two lethal and fragile girls. Obsession consumes the soul. They pursue the obsessions until they choke the life from them. They will love something that is bad for them until they break. Nathan knows Una could see her in the darkness. He just want to reach out and grab her. Nathan can call certain beings to do his bidding and if he doesn't have strong control of the will the spirits will negotiate with him. They will tell him the time tables. Andel has avoided whatever issue they are facing in life. They’ve been living a lie that they believe, having convinced themselves that the problem doesn’t really exist. However, they’ve now realized they don’t want to live this lie anymore and are no longer in denial about their problems. has decided that now is the time to confront their problems head on. They have to try to solve it no matter what, even if it means death. Therefore they will literally do it or die trying. If he can make an impact, if he does, then he will never be forgotten and never truly die. Andel uses dark embrace to extend on the meaning of the last line. He does realize that death is inevitable and ‘dark’ but that its not wholly evil and does not necessarily end your existence. When he was content with what he's done with his life then death can be an embrace. It’s time to experience life and face things head on, there is a time for death but that time is not now, it is time to be alive. The importance of remembering the past but then in the next line he switches to current tense and says he won’t forget this night. He should remember the past but live for the future. Faith is coming. Nonetheless, they're letting go of the past and moving forward in life. Their fate waiting for him, meaning opportunities in the future that he wants to chase without being dragged down by the past. Under Heaven’s command or blessing; they are dreaming under the banner of heaven, meaning their dreams are approved by and aligned with the belief of Heaven or an ultimate place of eternal happiness. Take advantage of the great aspects of life in order to open up new possibilities and leave a mark. These advantages usually come once in lifetime, so either take the choice to. Even though he will always remember the good and bad memories that he’s made throughout moments of his life, he keeps on going. He lives in the moment and always looks forward. The reason he can keep going is because he hangs on to his memories, and while he doesn’t let them drag him down, he doesn’t completely bury them either. The next day was pretty bad: Una woke up and took a shower while getting dressed. However she got a note that says: "NEED YOU NOW." Una knew something was up so she headed over to the stadium however it was dark. "Conner, where are you? I can't see in here." She called. She then felt herself pinned against the wall and before she knew it, it was a big blur! And was knocked out. However, Briar and the others came to save Una but failed as they were overpowered by the likes of Nathan Cobbins and his gang, which they escaped in a puff of smoke. Conner was determined to get his friend back, no matter what! In the meantime, all of his life; everyday he watches the girl of his dreams pass by his window. Daydreaming, he tells himself how lucky he is to be with her and that she chose him over anyone else. Now he has her in his grasp. Many say that Nathan is incapable of love considering his strong association with evil, terror, and the like. Nathan promises his victim all kinds of gifts if she comes with him. Nathan convinces his victim to follow him and run away from home, so she will be alone when he shows who he really is. Nathan has full control over his victim, who will fall in love with him. He is introducing his island to the woman he has captured, he has been holding Una here for a while, and hopes they’ve been having a good time. Nathan is truly in love, but is too much dark for Una. Even his gang believe he is crazy, and so does Una, and he is not surprised by this. While her time captive; Una explored and found Nathan's room and snooped around. Not that it didn't seem right but she had to find some answers. However she came across a picture frame of a young boy with an auburn haired beautiful woman. There was cursive writing that reads, "To my darling son you dear mother." Furthermore; Una found another picture frame of a young boy with his parents but there was only one problem--The father's head was scribbled upon so much that you couldn't see his face. "Well, well. This is where the sneaky princess has been, hasn't she?" A voice said. Una jumped! "I--I was just looking around." She stammered. She placed the stuff back where she found it. Una stood up but could hear Nathan's voice in her ear ashe caressed her face, "Pretty girls shouldn't be snooping into other people's stuff." Una moved away to look at him, "Did you call me 'marvelous' and 'worthy'? Why did you--?" She said. "You are one, am I right?" said Nathan. Una was unsure about this, "I guess. I mean, I was name that for a reason. I--I never asked my parents why though." She said. "I see, well I'm pretty much like a son of a bastard, now that's the best title." remarked Nathan. Una looked at him, "You seem to love your mother." She pointed out. Nathan nodded, "I did." He replied. "And they took them from me. My father did the most of the work." There was darkness in his eyes, Una noticed this. Nathan took noticed, "What are you looking at?" He asked. "Just....You look like you need someone to help you. I mean, is there anything good in you?" Una inquired. Nathan chuckles a bit, "Me? Please, love is weak and so is friendship. But you, Una, you make me feel alive." He said, putting a hand on the side of her face. He smiled for a bit, Una blushed slightly at how attractive he looks and she couldn't say anything but her thoughts swarmed in her mind. They were interrupted by a noise made them both jump and Nathan went to investigate. As he found the supply room; it was vacant as he seems to see it. Before he knew it; Nathan could feel himself strangled by a girl's legs as they try to choke the life out of him but broke free! However, Monica and her gang fought back against Nathan's gang. But they couldn't. The beatings, the bruises, and the blood was everywhere! Monica try to scream but couldn't because she was falling unconscious however she remember hearing Nathan's voice: "That's what you get for messing with us." With one last look before falling unconscious to see a beatened, limped Conner being lead away; Monica screeched in pain! Meanwhile; Nathan had Conner down on his knees, kicking him in the head and hanging from the tree. He knew he would bury him deep in his pain and nobody will find him nor break him out. Covered his eyes of hate, nobody can save him. It must be unwise of Nathan for doing this but he was letting this come true. "Please stop! Enough, I've seen enough!" Una shouted, crying. But Nathan and the others weren't going to stop until it happened. Conner broke down and turned into the dark version of what he used to be and faced off against Nathan alone. Nathan smiled, "Now that's more like it." He said. Una gasped at the sight of this. In his anger; Conner will make Nathan remember this moment as he dig his nails into him and Nathan seemed to like this pain so much however he won't feel this again. Conner couldn't handle this feeling no more of him tormenting him however he will make him beg for mercy. He will steal his enemy's pride and make him savor this much pain. He couldn't forget how much this hurts so Conner will fight so much, dreaming how much his enemies run away and he'll keep on pushing until he sees his enemies bleed. Blood on his hands after he beats them! Monica woke up and she walked over but what she saw horrified her: "Oh my....I can't believe this is happening." She whispered. Una was shocked by this, "Aiden! Fiachra!" She called out to her friends, "You gotta help me break him out of there." But they weren't too eager to step in. "I don't think that's a good idea." Aiden said. "Why? You guys gotta help him out of this state." Una insisted. "I don't believe we told you dearest, this is the rage of Conner's power." Fiachra said. "Why do you mean?" Una asked. "If is beatened so far or provoked about anything dear, he turns into this frenzy of rage inside of him." Fiachra explained. "Isn't there something we could do?" Una asked, she wanted to do something."There is one way but...It could kill Conner. The only way to stop this ferocious anger inside of him is to neutralize it with the power of his staff. It could stop it, but it could also kill him." Aiden said, nervously. Una gasped in horror, she couldn't believe it so she found the staff. Meanwhile; Conner was trapped in a perpetual agitation of malice, unending fit of hatred and rage where he caught in the moment of unforgiveness. He could see the speechlessness in his enemy's eyes of disbelief yet vacant gaze is disorted and twisted in a glare. Nathan's teeth glimmered at Ferrand's emotional rage of hate in mid air, how it is resurfacing and ascending with a boil. Back in reality; Una reached over for Ferrand's staff but she thought about what Nathan said: "....You're nothing but a pathetic human, what can you do? You're too soft hearted, too vulnerable, and too sweet. You think you're kindness can change anything? You have nothing, you can't even defend yourself against me!" Filled with anger; Una managed to tell her friends to get out of here, Aiden and Fiachra looked at her in shock as they could see something was different in her eyes. Una picked up the staff as she turned and faced Conner who was now battling Una, who had the staff in hand, as she was about to finish him off but stopped herself. Una looked at her friend, she was filled with such emotions but she remembered how the first time they met, how they became friends, and how they've been through so much together. She could hear the words echoing inside her brain: "......this is the rage of Conner's power.....If is beatened so far or provoked about anything dear, he turns into this frenzy of rage inside of him......There is one way but...It could kill Conner. The only way to stop this ferocious anger inside of him is to neutralize it with the power of his staff. It could stop it, but it could also kill him.....You're nothing but a pathetic human, what can you do? You're too soft hearted, too vulnerable, and too sweet. You think you're kindness can change anything? You have nothing, you can't even defend yourself against me!" Una couldn't believe it, "What am I doing? Una, he's my friend....I can't do it." She thought. Tears in her eyes as she felt heartless for thinking this way. Una drops her weapon and stood tall, she smiled while she said: "Conner, I know you can hear me....I know sometimes when you're angry or being hard on yourself, I accept you for who you are inside and out. You have my full permission to be yourself because I like you for you." Conner was dazed, "Ooo...Na?" He asked. Then, he felt pain inside of him, he let out a scream, "AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!" Una put her hands on his shoulders, she knew it hurt him as she said with tears cascading down her cheeks, "It's OK, Conner." She said. Conner was crying a bit, "Una..." He muttered. Una looked at him in the eyes, "You don't hide your flaws to impress me, I just want you to open up your inner emotions so maybe we can truly become close and disclosure any secrets that might come between us. I believe in you, I'll always care for you unconditionally." She embraces him while she replied, "If we walk now we will divide and conquer this land." Finally; Conner returned to normal and he embraced Una warmly as he thanks her for all she did. She was grateful for helping her friend in need. Monica and the group decide to head back and celebrate! However, Una had to go and do something so she excused herself for a moment. Walking alone on the path, she approached the shadows of an area and stopped there. "I know you're there...Don't be afraid." said Una. Nathan chuckled, "I'm not afraid." He replied. Una looked in the shadows, "Then, come on out from hiding." She said. "Aren't you afraid of me?" asked Nathan. Una shook her head, "No, I'd like to talk to you." She said. Nathan emerged from the shadows to look at her. "I want to know, why did you kissed me? Why did you kidnap me, torture Conner and causing him to go on a rampage." Una said, "Was it your way to win my heart?" Nathan smirked, "What? Did you feel an arousal or something?" He said. "No, there must be something more than you than this. I just want to get to know you better." answered Una. "You think I'm a misunderstood monster who cannot comprehend with emotions? Like love?" Nathan scoffed. "Well, I think you have reasons for doing what you do. I don't think you're evil, even though what you did was unforgettable, but other than that; I don't think you're good. I think you're just in between and go hand in hand what you do." explained Una. Nathan looked at her with a stunned expression, he then said to her: "Una, there are some things in life you need to understand...There's a world full of people wanting to corrupt you. Hurt you. Try and kill you." Nathan warned. Una realizes she is in over her head with this dark hearted young man. She can't help but fall for a troubled guy. However, she shook her head at the thought as she said, "I--I have to go." She said, stammering and she hurried away. She managed to find her friends and headed back with them. Later; Nathan was thinking about what Una said, "....I think you have reasons for doing what you do. I don't think you're evil, even though what you did was unforgettable, but other than that; I don't think you're good. I think you're just in between and go hand in hand what you do." Nathan thought it was a bunch of nonsense however he and his gang will make Monica as well as the others to pay!

And on that day, it happened when Sianna has come to see her friends however someone behind her approached. She turned around and said, "Hey, who are you? Haven't I seen you before?" Then, "Wait! What are you--? GET AWAY FROM ME!!!" CRASH, someone was pushing her out the window and Sianna lost her footing and fell down, thinking that she would die but she survived. Hearing the crash; Monica was shocked to see who it was and rushed over to see her sister bleeding from her nose and her ribs were broken, "Mon...ica...." She whispered. "SIANNA!!!" Monica screamed. Just then, she looked up and saw the sniggering group of the Phoenix Gang, except Andel and Phoenix as Monica got angry: "YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!" She shouted. "What? Little Miss Pretty deserved it! She is such a freak!" Nathan said, still smirking down at Monica. Sianna was in great pain and she was rushed to the emergency room. Monica, Conner, Tina, and Aiden glared up at the Phoenix Gang. Leto spoke up, "That's what she gets for your misgivings. Your rejections to our offers. Is this what you think you can get away with? I don't think so." She replied. "Well, this isn't going to let us join you. I mean, this isn't the way we do things when people refuse." Monica insisted. "Maybe you don't but we do. And if you don't like it, walk away." Leto remarked darkly. It looked like a fight was happening, but Tina called out: "Mark my words, we will make you pay for this!" While Monica and the gang were leading the Good Sorceress away; Sianna looked up, she glanced at the light and thought she saw an image of Lorelai as she whispered, "Lory...." And was knocked unconscious. Somehow, Lorelai could sense her distress as she almost had a panic attack! "SIANNA!!!!" She shouted. Then, she try to called out a resurrection and healing spell at the same time where she said this strange chanting and she was also saying, "May her wounds healed, may they come together....." Tears were streaming down her face while she recalled the same things she repeated to herself before, "I try to make good but I end up failing every single time, I once told myself...I would never do a good deed again but at that moment, my grieving heart became polluted with monsters and revenge boiling in my soul. No good deed goes unpunished, more like a bad deed going unpunished. I will punish the wicked and if I will make good, so I'll make...Good....The people need to know that I am no longer wicked. Though, they won't believe me; I knows what I have to do. I need to make good. I need to do good and save my best friend." Afterwards, Monica and the others were told that Sianna was going to be OK as she needs some rest. It was too much for everyone but someway, somehow, they were going to make Phoenix pay for what they did. It was payback time against them! During that time, Sianna is resting when she saw a glimpse of someone and gasped before she smiled. Since all disaster was happening, Maugris seemed down-casted for some reason as Madame Evelyn was frolicking happily with a grin on her face but noticed Maugris looked disheartened and she rolled her eyes. "Well, I don't know why you're so discouraged, Maugris, I thought it went quite well! They seem thrilled to shreds with their brains and their hearts, and this and that...." Madame Evelyn explained. But she stopped when the doors opened. "Oh, Miss Sianna! I thought you'd be resting since that nasty fall you...." Madame Evelyn said, pretended to be surprise. But her face fell when Lorelai entered where she holds out a bottle with a picture of a woman who resembled. "This was mine, it was a keepsake. It was my mother's." Lorelai explained while she hold out the bottle. Maugris looked surprised, "What's that you say?" He asked. Sianna nods, "She told me so herself. I've only seen a little, green bottle like this one other time. It was right here, in this very room. You offered me a drink from it." She replied. Maugris was shocked, he begins to remember of the memory: The memory of a woman who looked just like Lorelai almost, she was beautiful and voluptuous young woman who has a smile on her face. "But... oh my Lord...I always longed to be a father..." Maugris muttered to himself tearfully. Madame Evelyn glared at him, "So that was it. That's why she had such powers! She was a child of her mother and you!" She exclaimed. Sianna stood before Maugris as she makes her commands, "I want you to call off your guards and the charges against Monica and the others. Do you hear what I just said?" She instructed firmly. Maugris nodded sadly: "Yes, Lady Sianna." He said. So he did what Sianna told him and Monica & her friends celebrated happily. In the meantime; a man who looked like a thug was pinned against the wall by a young lady name Venetia Cereno. "You know who he is, don't you?" demanded Venetia. The gangster shook his head, "No, no, no! Don't make me tell! He'll kill me! If I mention the name of his girl too, he'd kill me times to the second power!" He protested. Using her high heeled boot to pin him to the wall; Venetia managed to interrogate him the hard way: "Talk, or I'll make you bleed many times to the second power." She threatened. "No way, I'm a dealer--Not a snitch!" The gangster snapped. Venetia pinned him even more until the gangster choked out, "OK, I'M A SNITCH! I'M A SNITCH!" Venetia let him go enough to catch his breath as he coughed and gagged while he said, "All right....OK, the guy's name is Colt Kendall and his girlfriend's name....OK, they're not a couple and she's not his 'girlfriend' but they are in love, I know that." He then told her the name of the girl and it was Megan Seymour. Venetia understood, she now know who they are and she was about to leave but there was something else as well. "There's another one too." The gangster called out. Venetia turned around to face him again, "Another couple?" She inquired. The gangster nodded anxiously, "Yeah, their names are Kyle Kinney and Trisha Bernard." He said. Venetia nodded, "I see, boyfriend and girlfriend or just in love?" She asked. The gangster replied casually, "Boyfriend and girlfriend." Venetia nodded, "Thank you." She said. And left. Watching over the skyline at night, Venetia looked at the name Kyle Kinney, she wondered where did she heard a name like that before. She remembered she met him during some awkward circumstances since she thought maybe he thought maybe he was disinterested in her. Just as she was thinking; she recalled that party from high school! She was just looking for the bathroom but what she saw made her shocked. She saw Kyle and a suspicious girl with possibly no shirt on and only jeans kissing. The two of them are stunned. Venetia left, feeling dazed and perplexed. Venetia was so astonished at this forgotten memory that she doesn't know what to do now. She seemed to remember that she has a crush on him but when she saw that, she was upset and heartbroken and never talked to him ever again. What she witnessed was too much for her to deal, a girlfriend...He has a girlfriend? What was her name? Trisha Bernard. Trisha was pretty, very attractive and sweet. No, not sweet--Nice young lady she was. 

While Venetia was asleep; she woke up to hear a noise and she went to check it out but then, she was knocked out from behind. The next minute that happened was Venetia wakes up with her shades on but she's in a dark prison chamber as she has no idea how she got there. Then, she noticed her hands were bound together and above her head. "What the hell is going on?" She thought. The door slammed open and in the darkness, Venetia could see two figures--One was white salt hair and the other was dark haired with a purple tint to him. "So, you're finally awake--Girl." said the dark haired with a purple tint. Sandra felt uneasy around him, "Who are you?" She inquired. The dark haired with a purple tint smirked, "You really want to know, don't ya?" He snapped. His partner, the white haired guy, stopped him: "Axel, please." He assured him. He knelted down as Venetia could see he was young as his partner was, "I'm sorry about that. My name is Jude Gildford and this is my partner, Axel Rivers. We want to do an interrogation." He explained. Axel was irritated a lot so he seized her by the jaw and threatened her, "Listen, you need to cooperate with us or we'll make you." Venetia sneered at him, "What are you going to do?" She taunted. Axel sneered back, "Maybe, this!" He said. He yanked off her sunglasses but Venetia, fearing that they'll recognize her, squeezed her eyes shut and turned away, "AAAH!" She yelped. "Open your eyes!" demanded Axel. Sandra shook her head, "No!" She said. "OPEN YOUR FRIGGIN' EYES AND LOOK AT ME!!!!!" shouted Axel. Venetia screamed back, "NO, YOU GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!!!!!" Jude stood in the way of his friend and commanded in a calm but firm voice, "Axel, that's enough!" Axel looked at him in disbelief, "She won't talk!" He protested. "There's no need to get violent." Jude replied. Jude smiled, "Axel, put her shades back on." He said. Axel sighed "Fine." He said. He placed the shades on Venetia's eyes. Venetia forced herself to smile, "Thanks." She said. Axel gritted his teeth, "You're not welcome." He said. Venetia looked away, "Whatever." She muttered. In this vision; Monica saw that there was a creepy girls by the names of Rosemary, Pansy, Fenella, and Columba who were out on a spree: Rosemary strangled a 4-year-old boy to death on the day before her birthday. She was believed to have killed the boy all on her own, but she and a friend would later vandalize a local nursery and make claims to the murder. Pansy strangle another boy to death — this time a 3-year-old. After killing the boy and stashing his body in the woods, Rosemary returned and carved an H into his stomach. She then cut off bits of his hair as though he were some sort of doll, and mutilated him. Later, Fenella and Columba took another boy on a mile walk to a semi-secluded area, along some railroad tracks by an old cemetery. That’s where the two girls killed the boy. They threw paint into his left eye, hit him with bricks, beat him with an iron bar, and beat him so severely that he was no longer breathing, the sisters laid the boy out across the train tracks and weighed him down so that he couldn’t move, hoping that a train would come and cut him in half. A minute later; Fenella had toyed with the notion of killing two brothers, and had even posted images with captions extolling the pleasures in watching them suffer as she played dangerous pranks on them. Finally, the four sisters then knocked on a door and were greeted by an elderly woman, who seeing two young teen girls let them in without hesitation in the hopes that she’d have a nice conversation over tea. They did sat chatting with her but then they turned violent and dropped all pretenses. Columba grabbed the old woman by the neck and held her, while Pansy found a butcher’s knife in the kitchen and tossed it to her. Columba then began to stab the woman, and continued stabbing her while the old lady pleaded for her life as Rosemary, Pansy, and Fenella held each other while laughing. The sisters ran away like lunatics that they want to do it again because the feeling of killing gave them a good vibration of arousal to violence. Then, they came into a shed where they smiled with glee. Sitting in the shed was a woman with long black hair that reached to her thighs, almost to her ankles. She wore a long white dress, her eyes were orange-amber that glowed as if alive, and her skin was ivory. But there was one problem with her, she too thin--Almost skin and bones. She looked like emaciated patient who was malnourished and her face was gaunt. This woman was Carmen, the four girls' mother who smiled back with the same sinister expressions as the girls, who are her daughters. Her story was such a tragedy as her mother Trudy began taking her anger out on Carmen, beating them with paddles. Anaisa soon focused her abuse exclusively on Carmen, accusing her of stealing candy that she had bought from a grocery store, and humiliating her when she admitted that she once had a boyfriend. Trudy encouraged a girl name Viola and other neighborhood children to torment Carmen, including, among other things, extinguishing cigarettes on her skin, beating her, tying her up, burning her with scalding water, rubbing salt in her wounds, and leave her. She was locked in the cellar and forbidden leave the house. Carmen attempted to escape the night after overhearing Trudy's plan to blindfold and dump her in a wooded area nearby, but as she reached the front door, Trudy caught her and punished her by tying her up in the basement and giving her only crackers to eat. There was so many multiple beatings, burnings, and scalding baths. For years, Trudy abused and tortured Carmen in various ways including burning her with cigarettes, throwing knives at her, forced feedings and beatings. She made her children hold each other down while she beat and tortured them. In one instance, she held a pistol to Carmen's head and threatened to kill her. Cecilia primarily focused her anger and abuse on Carmen. Her mother resented Carmen, which she was maturing and blossoming into an attractive young woman while she faced the prospect of growing old and losing her looks. Trudy also believed that her ex husband had turned Carmen into a witch since birth. Because of this belief, Carmen received the worst of Trudy's abuse. Trudy became convinced that Carmen was casting spells on her and shot Carmen in the chest with a pistol. The bullet became lodged in her back, but Trudy refused to allow Carmen to seek medical attention and left her to die in the family bathtub. Carmen survived so Trudy began to nurse her back to health. Carmen eventually recovered without receiving professional medical treatment. Trudy beat her, tied her and locked her in a hot closet with no ventilation. Trudy forbade her to have food or water or to open the door to the closet. But in her teens, it gets even worse: One night as she was trying to get home; Carmen decided to take a 10 minute shortcut to her when they encountered gang members drinking beer after holding a gang initiation. The gang members captured and beat her repeatedly. Then, the members attempt to strangled her to almost near-death and they left her to crawl back home. The leader of that gang was Viola and her friends--Daisy, Orquidea, and Nettie. Since the last night beating; Trudy blamed Carmen for everything and she sold her to the soldiers. All of a sudden; Carmen was kidnapped and fertilized as she gave birth to four daughters. But her daughters were taken from her and she was devastated. But then, she was given terrifying powers that left her thin as she begins to feel much more dark. After she got out; Carmen was a suicidal, depressed, misunderstood, tragic, abused and tortured girl who only wanted empathy and love. She use to feel lost, and does not know which path to go, there’s nothing that anyone could do for her. It seems that every day there’s a new reason to cry about, and eventually the problems stack so high that Carmen can’t take it anymore. Carmen's been broken so bad that she is lost and trying to find herself again, she never shows her feelings she keeps them inside. Her life is a series of constant failures, she is spread out too thin, being all over the place. As she was broken by some sort of rejection, and now can’t return to the state of stability, or even sanity, she might just fade away. After dealing what happened; Carmen just went insane. She had befriend other girls however they betray her. One day during a drill; her so-called friends moved over to where Carmen was standing, near a drain, and begin to crowd the poor girl, getting in her face and nudging her towards the open manhole. hey pushed her and she tripped over and fell head-first down the manhole. When they saw her falling, the girls started giggling and when Carmen's name was called out, they shouted "She’s down in the sewer!" All of the other students began laughing. But when the teachers looked down the manhole and saw Carmen's body lying at the bottom in the muck, the laughter abruptly stopped. Her head was twisted around at an odd angle and her face was covered in blood. Worse still, she wasn’t moving. There was nothing any of the teachers could do for her. Carmen was dead. When the police arrived and went down into the sewer, they determined that she had broken her neck. Her face had been torn off when she hit the ladder on the way down and her neck snapped when she landed on her head on the concrete at the bottom. Then, a few minutes, her head turned back into place. As she lied in her own blood, She turned to the horrified crowd and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm okay." Carmen then got up and walked off, not bothered by her blood-stained clothes. She found her daughters and showed the four of her memories, this caused the sisters went crazy and became murderous, creepy little girls. Carmen came across a party where her attackers were and then she shouted at them: "I WILL NOT REST UNTIL ALL OF YOU ARE DEAD!!! MY CHILDREN WILL MURDER YOU!!" Her powers scared everyone as this is where she chants a curse upon the town: "You, who have wronged me in the deepest way, may this fate be put upon. May you suffer as I've suffered. I will have my vengeance. As I will, pain and suffering go to the until you are nice to me. But for now you burn and toss and turn. if you are nice to me maybe I will set you free from this curse indeed, so mote it be. And that thou, with many curses for that he sinned when he harkens to. Your body will burn with the fire of his passion. Curse of will last for seven days and seven nights. He can scream in pain. I have learned the reading of these things on your face, you do not bother me." And then, she vanished. Monica trembled at what might happened to them very soon.

For the time being; Monica has a nightmare where she gets her lips sewn shut and watches as one of her friends is forced against his will to tore out the entrails of his friends. Monica broke free by breaking the sewing needle towards her mouth as she screamed, "Noooooooo!" The next minute, she was leaning back against a tree. Bleeding, bruised, and crying there for hours. "What's the matter? Had enough?" A voice taunted. Monica shake her head, "Leave me alone. Please." But she could hear the torturing laughter and covered her ears as she screamed in terror. Monica woke up as she decided to get her revenge against them! She wants to be the one doing the ass kicking, not the one taking it. Nathan will be making up for his faults and inabilities by telling people he’s the best. He points at Monica, putting his finger to her chest to get his point across. Monica doesn’t care what anyone says. She has a weapon in case there’s a fight. She’s prepared. She’s about to beat this bully upside the head with her powers. Not only is she ready for a fight, Monica’s looking forward to it. She’s going to head to the playground to kick some ass! She’s planning on getting into a brawl, using her powers as weapons. How many fights do you think this girl got into? Monica was walking along the path however she managed to find them. There they were--standing there, waiting for her. Monica has a lot to say to them, "Now I'm going to tell you all that I have done for you.... I was crying immensely over you. I've been doing my best to try to get you two to listen — screaming and bleeding for you. Even after all that you still will not listen. I don't want your help this time, maybe never. You can scream and torment me all you wants but I'm going to rise out of the sea of pain you have caused me." She said. Just then, A TV image plays of Sianna cowering in fear before she fell out the ground, and Monica couldn’t believe it, "No way!" She gasped. However Nathan, Signar, and Gryphon laughed. They was in hysterics of this. How dare they…Monica’s body tremble but felt a rough hand on her shoulder, "What's the matter, freak--?" Nathan said. Monica turned to him fiercely and pushed them all back, which they flew back into a tree. "Do you really know me? Don’t you remember what I had to go through because of you? You can taunt me and hate me but I don’t care because of what I got and I achieved!" shouted Monica, "This time I won’t let it get to me. I'm invincible, take your shot because I will block it and when you shoot me, I’ll have nothing to be lose. Keep going, anything negative will just be deflected! No matter what you say about me, it doesn’t make a difference, I'm too strong!" Nathan and the others were so frightened by this. To protect his gang; Darwin steps in and greets Monica while he also wishes her luck and Monica says the same thing. Then, Darwin charges towards Monica and attacks her but she dodges Darwin's attack, and proceeds to defeat him with a single punch. Then, Leto steps in but Monica attacks Leto as she endures further damage to her body. As Leto takes more damage, she fiercely tells Monica that she won't give up. Hearing this, Monica attacks Leto with even more power of her banshee form! Leto shakes as Monica approaches her, vowing to reward her for harming her friend Sianna. Starting to become scared, Leto screams for Monica to stay where she is however Monica ignores her and punches her. Struck hard, Leto falls to the ground, completely wiped out. Then, Monica meets the brute, Gryphon, where she faces him. Gryphon expresses delight at finally meeting Monica, while she recognizes him. As two continue their struggle against one another, Gryphon comments on Monica's passion of being 'wild'. As Gryphon fires his attack, Monica dodges the blast and punches Gryphon in the face, smashing him into the ground. Monica tries to fight him but learns Signar hasn't moved at all. He hasn't attacked anyone, nor has he been found. He claims that the round is too easy for him and states that he remembers exactly where Monica is and has been as he unleashes his power, shocking Monica. However, Monica distracts him and leaving him open to be attacked by her. Monica was about to walk away when Signar smirks at her as he said, "You should've seen the look on her face the way she was pushed out...She was so cute...." Monica was so angry that she lets herself turn into a Banshee before finishing him off. Standing over the brutally bruised Signar; she said to him: "No matter what life will throw at you, you should savour it and make the most of it. You never regret things you did do. You only regret not doing things. It will be a fond memory, and this is my fond memory--Kicking your ass." She whooped him on the ground and walked away however she faces Phoebe then starts the battle by using her powers and tries to attack but Monica manages to dodge the attack by jumping. And used her skills to fight back while Phoebe battles her with her martial arts. But Monica gave her critical hits with her own moves and defeats Phoebe. Her loss leaves everyone in shock. Phoebe then starts to cry while Monica asks if she is sorry for what she done to Sianna, and Phoebe nods, much to Monica's surprise but looks away. Lub-dub, lub-dub, went her heart. "What's wrong with me? Why am I getting this feeling?" thought Monica. Mustering her courage, she turned around and she saw them. "I'm not chickening out, I'm not chickening out, I'm not chickening out!" Monica told herself over and over. She forced herself inside and slammed the door. "Aww, is someone feeling a little nervous?" Nathan's voice called out. Monica shut her eyes and turned around but when she opened them, they looked at the two of them fiercly. As Nathan and Andel ready themselves to go in, they immediately find themselves face-to-face with Monica respectively. Upon being hit in the face, they are sent flying back. "You call this a membership? This is more like blackmailing. And hurting people!" Monica said aggressively. Just then, Nathan hits her and Monica felt the force that impact in her face as her nose bleeds. On the ground; Monica glares at the duo, Nathan smirks at her and Andel glares down at her. Panting; Monica felt hot sweat running down her face, she turned to them. Then, regaining her composure and glared at them. "This is the end for you." said Monica. "Oh really? You weren't so sure of yourself? Well, it won't be peaceful for you for long." taunted Nathan. "You are nothing, you couldn't be strong enough to do take us down if you have to!" Andel said. Monica trembled as she couldn't believe those words and she lost control of herself. Monica is now pounding those bastard tormentors with her powers. Nathan managed to escape as Andel called out to him to come back but was defeated by Monica. While he ran, Nathan came across Una!

"Una, come with me... think of what we could do... together." Nathan said, beckoning towards her. Una was startled to hear this, "What?" She gasped. Nathan walked towards her, "We'll be unlimited, you and I the greatest of all the world. Dreams the way we planned them. And I....I just had a vision almost like a prophecy. I know, it sounds crazy and the future is quite unclear however I vow that someday that if we can become in tandem, there's no argument that none of us can win. It's you and I up in the sky flying above this world." He said. Una moved away from him, she thought about it but she couldn't say her answer however she replied, "If I went with you, I'll never be with my family and friends again. So, I don't think I can." As she said this, Una turned back to him looking sad. Nathan had a look of guilt on his face and he knew that this was true, "That's right." He said. A smirk slowly appeared on his face, "But you'll have me." He said smugly. "Life's full of tough choices, isn't it? It's full of hapless, pitiful souls in the world who are in pain and in need. So pathetic but legit, my dear." Una was silent for a moment before glancing at him. "Am I hapless, pitiful soul who is pathetic to you?" Una asked. Nathan looked at her with surprise before smiling conceitedly, "You? Don't be silly Una, I care about you." He answered. Una looked at him, "You are a hapless, pitiful soul. I really can't understand you that well." She noted. "What I want is for you to complete me. I always wanted you Una." said Nathan. Una shuddered, she wrapped her arms around her. "Oh! You poor thing, you're trembling... here, put this on...Around you...." Nathan said softly, draping a cloak around her and put her arms on her shoulders. "Don't be afraid." He replied. Una gasped out an answer, "I'm not... it's you who should be afraid... of Conner when he finds us!" Nathan says in her ear, "He won't find us because it'll be too late." He said. Una shifts away, "No." She said. "Well, are you coming?" Nathan purred. Just then, a voice called out: "Nathan Cobbins!" Nathan and Una turn around to see Conner. "What the hell are you doing here?" Conner demanded, "What are you doing to Una?" Nathan glares back, "Stay out of this!" He shouted but Conner was gonna get payback for what he did to him earlier! And he beats him and defeats him.

However; Nathan was insane with power to care what he says. His hair was a mess and was bleeding from his hands. He panted and heaved, "I will not stop until I get you, Conner." yelled Nathan. Conner ran and ran, until his lungs were about to burst however he found himself at a cliff. Nathan laughed more malicious, "End of the line, you damn ass." He exclaimed. Conner glared at Nathan, who lunged at him. "DIE!!!" He cried. Conner trembled as he couldn't believe those words and he lost control of himself. Conner is now pounding that bastard with his powers. "The next bastard that picks on me again is gonna swallow some teeth." He vowed, he then walked away with Una in his arms. Una looked up, "My hero...." She whispered before she passed out. Just then, a storm came along. And Monica was in this catastrophe. The city was feeling like it was floating up by the power of the storm! The people scream, stuff was flying everywhere. The tempest was so strong that there was a blinding light. The storm was over, but the damage had been done! Monica woke up to see much debris and how the town looked destroyed, as well as how much she was alive. Everything around her was in pieces. Trees everywhere. No power, no heat, or anything else in the buildings that stood in one piece however they try to get the power to flick on but nothing happened! Monica got up but noticed she was a mess. Her clothes were wear and tear, her upper-body becomes more and more scarred, as a result of her experience from the storm. She saw the losses of other people and how some were lucky. "The town....the storm must've...Oh crap...." Monica muttered to herself. She sighed but grimaced, "Ah! It hurts...." She cursed. There was a stick lodged in her side so Monica gently pulled it out, but she cussed in pain and eventually got it out. Monica gripped a hand over the wound to not let it bleed so much. "HELLO!!!!! SOMEBODY!!!!" She shouted. Monica kept walking and never stopped. But the bleeding was making her lose conscious and was feeling so dizzy from the blood loss and she didn't want to give up as she fell forward. Believing that she would die alone of blood loss; but by a saving grace, Monica was rescued by a bunch of people who were peering down at her before helping her up and healed her wound. These people were like Good Samaritans and their names are: Viola Simon, Sebastian Cephas, Orsino Jameson, Olivia Jones, Mary Phillips, Toby Barton, Andrew Thaddeus, Cesario Alfeo, Fabian Simmons, Antonio Matthew, Valentine Leberecht, and Curio Timothy. Days turned into weeks and everything was repaired as not all had been destroyed.  But Monica made a lot of good friends along this journey.
