Heroes of Silvatica City

Huxley chuckled. He had hoped she would respond in such a way. “Looks like you havent given up. Good. If you really do love will then Im sure you can handle this.” Huxley said. “Ill switch over to Milo. Convince him to tell you more about Origin.” Huxley said. He took a deep breath as his body began to morph once more, but this time it got smaller and more childlike. When it was finished, a little Boy was standing in front of Caoimhe and he had the biggest smile on his face. “Coco! Im back out yay!!” Milo said happily as the pressure around them got slightly heavier. Milo’s gift was controlling gravity.

Well so much for stealth. Daniel quickly followed Squishy as the guard saw them approaching. It saw that it was it’s former headmaster, and he freaked a bit. Before he could summon the guards Daniel quickly came up to him and hit him with some kind of sleeping fans from his arm. “Go to sleep kid we got better things to do.” Daniel said as he lowered the kid to the ground and moved him out of the way.

Zeke quickly went up to her and hugged her to his chest. “Dont be. Its my fault. I had no idea I was making you feel this way. I had just assumed that everything was ok and had made the situation worse by not communicating.” Zeke said rubbing her head. “I never wished to make yo feel negelcted. I hope you can forgive me for that too.” Zeke said.

Milo smiled widely as he ran over and hugged her. “Its been a long time since I got to come out. Im happy to see you again coco! Everyone else seems really upset right now.” Milo said to her.

That was probably a sign that they weren’t too heavily brainwashed. Hopefully they could break whatever hold whoever was responsible had on the kids. They made their way inside, and they found a sort of holding cell. Inside they saw a bunch of the kids that had been captured last night. They looked elated to see Squishy. “Professor, you found us!” One of the girls said happily.

Zeke held her happily. “I love you too. SO so so much. Im sorry it didnt feel like I did. I promise Ill do better.” Zeke said. He pulled her back and gave her a happy kiss. Aaliyah could probably hear their commotion from outside now.

“I know you didnt mean it Coco. WIll does too. Its just that that meanie O is making him feel bad about everything. Im always happy, but even she makes me feel not happy sometimes.” Milo said, That was the first time Caoimhe had ever heard that Milo could be unhappy.

They reached out and touched Squishy, happy to see it. “A scary blonde woman came and took her again. They’ve been...trying to do something to professor Ica. Every time she comes back, she gets quieter. You have to go save her.” One of Squishy’s older students said, and pointed them towards where they took her.

(Glad that was resolved peacefully XD) Honey managed to get to Zekes home and knocked on the door. Zeke woke up and realized it was early morning. The night before and some of the morning had been dedicated to Tenpo and Zeke making up that he didnt even realize what time it was. He got up and kissed Tenpo and then put some clothes on to answer the door.

“She’s not a very nice person. She always does mean stuff to everyone. The only person she’s not mean to is Will. He’s the only one who makes her sleepy. But now Will is sleeping and he wont wake up. Hux says that we have to do something before Will wakes up.” Milo explained to her.

Oh man Daniel could feel Squishy’s anger. Daniel broke open the bars of the kids. “Follow the path and get out quickly. There are soldiers outside of the tunnel.” Daniel told them as they quickly vacated. Then Daniel went after Squishy. The two of them went through the door and entered a long hallway and at the end, they could hear talking. “.....surprised that you’ve held out this long. I thought seeing a familiar face would make it easier for you to come to our side. Its a shame.” A very familiar voice to both Daniel and Squishy said as they got closer.

Zeke was surprised, but he was even more surprised about what was asked. He could read the woman’s mind and it seemed the situation was dire. “I see. Give me a moment and Ill come along to figure out more about the psychic wall.” Zeke told her, without her even explaining about what he was needed for.

“Well...you have to make us all go away. Me, Huxley, and Leroy. When we are gone, then Will and O will fight, but Will should be stronger than her.” Milo said a little sadly. Of course he would, he wouldnt want to go away.

Daniel was getting a bad feeling but they couldnt stop now. They went through the door and they were greeted with quite the surprise. Ica was tied up on a chair, with her wings stretched and several of the feathers pulled out. But the worst of it all was the person who was standing there doing it....Hailey. “No way.” Daniel said. It should have been impossible because Hailey was supposed to be dead. Several years ago, Haileys power began to go haywire. She would unentinonally break things, and her wind would whip out and hit people. She was scaring everyone around her, especially Squishy and Ica, who had become best friends with her. The three had a very close bond and Squishy and Ica tried to help her. They all decided that maybe she should try to release her energy and maybe it would stabilize her. They took Hailey out in the middle of nowhere and Squishy and Ica urged her to let loose. Sadly, once she did, it seemed to be too much for Hailey and instead of the power going out, she imploded and it seemed like she was vaporized. The two blamed themselves for what happened to her and made the school in her memory so that no other child or person would be hurt by their powers again. But now she was standing here. “Well welll. Isn’t this a pleasant reunion?” Hailey said with a sinister smile.

This time Zeke wouldnt leave without telling Tenpo. Plus this seemed urgent so he needed to let her know. He walked in and gently shook her. “Hey tenpo. Im sorry to wake you but I need to tell you something.” Zeke said quietly.

Milo reached up and touched her cheeks. Then he gave her a big smile. "Its ok. I will still be a part of William. And if you guys have babies maybe theyll be like me! You never know right?" Milo said with a hopeful look in his eyes. "So dont be all sad. Coco is always the prettiest when she's happy!" Milo said to her.

Hailey didnt react as she let Squishy toss her into the wall. "Heh still ever the hot head I see. Didnt even hesitate." SHe said as she removed herself from the wall. Next was Daniel as he barreled towards her and smashed her through the wall. "I dont know what's going on, but get Ica out of here. Ill hold her off." Daniel said as he disappeared after her. Ica's eyes looked a little hazy but then she could feel her restraints loosening and felt something familiar. "S..squi.." She said weakly. She had really been through it.

Zeke returned the look and smiled as he got down beside the bed. "I got called by SHADE. It seems theres some trouble and they need my help. I wont be doing anything dangerous though, dont worry. Ill be back soon and we can continue alright?" Zeke said as he gently took her hand and kissed it.

Mil wiped her tears after the hug then got up. "thank you. I think for us to do this though, you're going to have to get help from your friends. because the only way for us to assimilate is to make us hurt. that's what Huxley says." Milo told her.

"h...hail..." Ica tried to say Hailey's name but she couldnt get it out. Their frined, their regret was here, and Ica couldnt do anything to stop her. They couldnt leave, but she couldnt argue against Squishy as he led her out and they could hear fighting in the background as they got further away.

"I will. I promise." Zeke said as he kissed her back and then tucked her into bed. He gave her one last kiss on the forehead then finished getting dressed and headed out to meet Honey. "Ok. We can go now." He told her.

"The super ones. Huxley said they were really strong, and could help you. I think its a good idea. Its lonely being by yourself, so relying on your friends when you need them is always a good idea right?" Milo said to her with a smile.

The kids didnt complain, she had done so much for them so they would do what they could to protect her. When they all got outside the soldiers were there and they quickly took Ica to a place where she could heal nearby. By the time they had made sure all the students were saved and they were planning on returning, Daniel came out, looking a bit banged up, but otherwise ok. "Sorry. I couldn't stop her. She got away." He said.

(give this a second)

She couldnt see it because she looked away but milo looked really sad. "I...I dont know. Huxley said only we know what hurts us the most. The thing that makes me sad, is when you're sad or upset." Milo said.

Squishy must have been really focused on just Ica because it took longer than one minute to go through the base, rescue the kids, and lead them all outside and make sure they all had gotten out safely. Daniel didnt appreciate Squishy's attitude, although he could understand it. If someone did something horrible to Aaliyah Daniel would be pissed. When Squishy got back down, just like Daniel said, Hailey was nowhere in sight.

Wow. Caoimhe was being really cold right now. It was making Milo feel...really sad. "C-coco...do you hate me now because of what I said?" He said to her. She could feel the pressure increase a bit.

Squishy's rage must have blinded it, but at this point it didnt matter. The fact that Hailey had escaped hadnt changed. But now they knew who it was that was behind all the kidnapping of the kids. Now they would have to launch an investigation on Hailey and figure out how she had survived and what to do next. They headed back to the school and when they arrived Honey was there with Zeke. He saw everyone come in and was glad they were safe.

"We all like you too. Huxley is...sometimes mean but he likes you a lot. Leroy likes to break things, but he says he likes to break less things when you're here. We all like you. That's why Huxley says we need to do this. To make things better for you and Willy. So even though it's scary, and Coco loves us, you have to hurt us first. Im ready." Milo told her.

Ica woke up in the hospital and looked for Squishy. When she saw it she reached for its hand. Hoping it'd tell her what happened. "Hey Aaliyah. It's been a long time. You look good. You too Daniel." Zeke said. It was just as strange hearing Zekes voice as it was to hear tenpos. It was nice to see Zeke doing so well.

"Ok. I dont know if Leroy will be able to talk well, but huxley says he wants to go last. So heres leroy." Milo said as he took a deep breath and then began to turn into electricity and grow larger. Leroy came out and he was holding his arm. "Cant break..hazzzz to zzzzay goodbye...." Leroy said, holding back his urge to use his powers.

"Not..good. Feel like...I got my feathers...plucked out....how are you?...and the kids?" She asked Squishy. (oops forgot) "Sorry to call you in like this Zeke. but we need help. If you could, we need your help examining this psychic barrier." Ire said. Time was of the essence after all. Zeke nodded as he went to where the kids said they felt it and he began looking for traces of psychic waves or residue with his mind.

Milo looked like he would cry when he finally turned to Leroy. She wasnt being hurt, so it seemed he was fine. "I....have to go zzzzzooon.....I cant help....how I break zzzztuff...but you never got....mad....you are zzzzzzooo...zooo good to me. I...c-cant stop..but you didnt either....th-thank you...." Leroy said. He had explained to her that him being covered in electricity was pain unless he released it.

"its...not your..fault...I thought...I was stronger...but when I saw Hailey....I couldnt fight back." Ica said tears forming in her eyes. "She was alive...but somethings wrong with her...she's filled with so much hate..." Ica said. Zeke felt around a bit more and then he found something. "I can sense the one who made the barrier....they're very powerful. They are...keeping me from finding them. But I can tell you the area they are in. They're somewhere downtown, underground." Zeke said. "Hmm perhaps there are other underground tunnels we dont know about in the city. We need to investigate this more. However, our first priority is keeping the kids safe. Im sure after losing them, there might be an attempt to try to capture then again." Ire said.
