"Shit!" Jackie yelped in surprise as Atticus was sitting on her bed, inspecting her butterfly curtains as he heard her and turned his head to her. "Ah, Makani. Pardon me for this. I've noticed that you really like butterflies. It's a shame that they don't live long." Jackie glanced back into the hallway and then back at him. "And what does that imply?" She asked, suspicious. "Nothing. It's just a fact. If I may say, it's a wonder how this has all happened. I've never seen you in school but now.. you are really interesting. So are your friends. But could you inform me on who the other women are? I've only seen them at the festival and I do not know who they are." He asked as Jackie walked over and sat next to him. "Well the brown haired woman is Skye, she has a airship. She's also a water Elemental. The yellow one is Nari, She's a electric Element and her and someone named Stan used to have this place. The ones with green hair are Grace and Traci. They're Earth Elements and they're really smart. Ari's a robot made by Maxwell but she's part of the team now. And I know you know the others." He nodded as he put some of her hair behind her ear. "You know, you remind me of my sister.. She was blonde as well. So was I. But after she disappeared, I didn't feel it was alright to have it still blonde. So I asked Jordan to dye for me. I really miss her." Atticus trailed off at the last bit as Jackie put her hand on top of his and tried to reassure him. "It's alright. My real mom's actually dead so that's kinda similar?" She said, trying to make him feel better.
"Yeah, it sort of is. I'm sorry if I seem like a asshole. It's just..."
"FUCK! FUCK FUCK! BREAK IN BREAK IN THERE'S A BREAK IN!" Brooke yelled from downstairs in a frantic tone. "What the fuck?!" Yelled the two as they got up and ran downstairs as the whole living room was in shambles and Aurora was growling at men with snake-like armor. Cascade and Aniran were hiding behind the couch as Ivy was with Aurora, her fists up. "What in the seven shade of fuck is going on?!" Yelled Jackie as everyone turned their heads towards her and Atticus. "They fucking took Akaito, Oscar and Brooke!" Yelled Aniran. "That one there. He needs that one too." Said one of the snake men, gesturing to Atticus. "Excuse me?!" He retaliated, feeling offended. "Enough." Said the men as they threw something at Atticus and it started to flash. "WHAT?!" He exclaimed as he realized what was going to happen. "JACKIE!" He called for her as he was going to grab her but then disappeared. The men did as well.
Cascade and Aniran got up from the couch and looked around, walking over to Aurora and Ivy. "God, they wrecked this place. Jackie are you alright?" Asked Ivy, looking up at her on the stairs. She didn't say anything. She couldn't find the words to speak. She just watched Atticus disappear to fuck knows! She sat on the stairs, looking at her hands as she felt like she was going to cry. "Oh no..." Cascade went over to her and pulled her into a hug. Ivy sighed and put her hand on her waist. "Guys! You can come out!" She called out as Jordan walked out of the kitchen. "Layla's Hijab Amira got loose so Devilin's fixing it for her. What happened?" He asked. "Akaito, Oscar, Brooke and Atticus got snatched from us. Our moms' knocked out and Jackie's having a hard time right now. Wait. Where's Celeste? And Ari?" Ivy responded. Celeste then appeared from behind Jackie and Cascade. "Bad news. The blast I manifested broke. The sky's still the same colour when it happened but his plan thing is now undelayed. Both of our worlds are going to SHIT." She said with a dark tone. "Now I really hope you all know how to fight coz we've got corrupted elementals to deal with, corrupted humans and maybe my sisters.." She explained walking down the stairs and looking out the door. But it's also that we need new clothes to deal with them. Who here can make clothes in a snap?" Ivy then put up her hand excitedly "ME! I CAN!" She exclaimed as Celeste looked at her weirded out. "Alllright? We all need new clothes that are easy to move in and that are durable. Can you do that?" Ivy nodded and grabbed all of the clothes laying everywhere and ran into the other room. "What we're going to do first is get these ladies to a safe place. Luckily I know exactly." She pulled out her book and said something in a indescribable elemental language. After a couple seconds, Skye, Nari, Grace and Traci disappeared with a black poof.
"Basic teleporting spell. Different with every element. Ivy are you done in the kitchen?!" She called out as Ivy leaned up with new clothes and threw them to everyone in the living room and them checking it out. "Alright. Whoever is in the kitchen, are they all human?" Jordan nodded. "Yeah, me, my girlfriend and Oscar's sister Layla. Why?" Celeste then went over to him and gave him a sonic screwdriver. "Take this. It was a replica from a comic con but I made it into a real thing. Wonders you can think of when you're the darkness Guardian. Pretend you're the Doctor from Doctor Who and your girlfriend and Layla are your companions." She told him as Jordan nodded with a smile on his face. "Jordan buddy, when we get back, I'll make you something. Who's your favorite doctor?"
"I'll tell you when you get back. Where are you girls even going?" He asked as he spun the sonic screwdriver around. "We're going to pay some assholes a visit." Celeste answered as Maxwell then appeared at the door and leaned against the door. "And I'm your man." Everyone then looked at him. "Who's that fucker?" Celeste said as Maxwell blushed a little. "My name is Maxwell Arachne. At your service! Now I had a little sense that you need help. Where shall you all go? What's the mission?"
Jackie walked to where Ivy and Aurora were and spoke up. "Some men in snake armour came and snatched some humans from us. My humans. My friends." Celeste turned around and then explained herself. "And we also need someone who can help us get to the castle in SECRET. Maxwell, do you have a cloaking device? Shadowblend isn't cloaking before anyone says anything. It's much different." Maxwell nodded and shook some keys.
"Are those fucking car keys?" Ivy exclaimed, pointing at the keys.
"They are! But they are also the keys to something else that is the ticket to get us to anywhere we like. I call it the Arachcad!" He announced, proud of himself as everyone just looked at him with a weirded out face. "That's a shit name." Cascade mumbled as Jackie was shaking a little. "Who gives a shit about the name. Can it track humans? Elementals? Whatever the fuck Brooke is?" Jackie asked,clearly showing that she doesn't want to be standing there doing nothing. "Yes it does! Everyone get on and you can explore the place as this baby will take you to who we need on the list." He informed as he threw onto the floor a teleport pad and everyone got on. Layla then jumped up, being really short and not being able to see Maxwell. "Wait! What about us!" Devilin called out. Maxwell noticed them and then took out his grapple hook gun and brought them to the pad. "We're not leaving you guys behind. NOW HANG ON!" He yelled as a pulsing red shield slowly showed up and the noise got faster and the shield got more opaque. Then with a loud flash. Then they disappeared and all that remained was a wrecked condo.
