Episode 193 - Nowhere to Run, in the Courtyard of Gravity

Throughout the arc, the groups separated several times in the Druskane Continent in order to stop Rowen in Tigre Village, but he was too quick for them. He headed over to the Whistel Continent to obtain the Bird’s Tear. Unfortunately, Matt and Yessenia’s group were not able to catch him and he returned to Tigre Village. Shirley’s group returns from the Greyton Oasis with the Rainbow Mist and find out that the world is tearing apart because there is no spirit for the oasis. With this in mind, Rowen’s Peridot soldiers only attack Shirley because they are aiming for the Rainbow Mist. It seems now that he has both the ingredients to create the Telsi Potion and he used it to revive his own friends who have turned evil by his favor. Now, Alex, Venus, Jaime, and Winny have to fight Droan, Anietta, and Narisa!
Episode 193 – Nowhere to Run, in the Courtyard of Gravity

            Alex, Venus, and Jaime were all resting nearby the fallen revived humans: Droan and Narisa. Venus was on her knees feeling exhausted from the battle that she just had. “Hrmph. So you’re telling me these guys are possessed or something?”
            “Not possessed, but revived in a manner which Rowen wanted.” Jaime began to explain.
            “How did that happen?” Alex asked while using his water powers to help wash off any dirt on his clothes.
            Jaime took notice of Droan, “Rowen is the one who used the Telsi Potion. Assuming that the potion does anything he wants. Which means, Rowen created a false imagination and planted it in these people’s minds.” He pointed at Droan, “This guy, for example.”
            “Hrm… it’s still kind of confusing to me…” Venus tilted her head in confusion.
            “Think of it this way.” Jaime began to create an example, “If there was a guy you liked and he never showed you feelings, wouldn’t you want a magic potion to make him fall in love with you?”
            “Heck yeah.” Her mind suddenly sparked when she turned to Jaime, “Huh?”
            “What?”
            Venus shook her head. “Nothing, nothing, hehe. But, I get what you mean now. Is that why you didn’t want to kill them?”
            Jaime sighed. “That was my main reason. Deep inside Droan’s mind, he wanted to live at his own free will.” He thought about what Droan had said before.
 ~~~
            Jaime constantly avoided Droan’s attacks. Droan spoke, “Great. You chase me all this way and then you suddenly decide to stop?! Fight me, now! Put me out of my misery!”
            Jaime’s heart skipped a beat from the astonishing surprise. There were two main reasons that came to his mind. “W-What?! Did he just…”
 ~~~
            Alex interrupted him, “Let’s just kill them. They’re evil and they were dead in the first place. It’s better to get rid of them. You just said Droan wanted to die right?”
            “Putting him out of his misery…” Jaime punched the wall. He became frustrated. “People want to die… but why is it okay to kill people like these? Why do people object to me dying when nobody cares about these two?!”
            Venus got up. “That’s because what’s gone should be gone.”
            “No! They want to die. I wanted to die. We’re the same, yet everybody treats me as if I have something to live for.”
            “You do! You live for the people around you. These people care about you, and they want you to move along.” She opened her arms, indicating that people like Alex, Yessenia, Matt, and all of the other students around Tigre Village cared. “Droan and Narisa… sure, they deserve to live, but what’s done is done. Her parents, everybody in school who knew them, and maybe even fate, if you believe in it, already agreed long ago that there is nothing to fix them. They have also been revived in the wrong way. Keeping them around now would just complicate things.”
            Jaime was shaking from the dilemma. “I just… I don’t know what to do, Venus. I’m still lost.”
            Venus walked up to him. “You’re… going to find your way.” She hugged him. “We’re friends, and you never intended to leave me as a friend since the beginning. I trust you. I trust that we can all make it through together.”
            Alex smiled. He did not want to bother their moment.
 ~~~
            Winny was about to walk away after caving in Anietta with stalagmite. “Well, that should some things up around here.” She clapped her hands, cleaning any dust.
            The ground began shaking. The floor below her was floating up into the air. “Gravity is in my control, not yours.”
            “I never said it was?” Winny said sarcastically.
            The stalagmite quickly shattered after being lifted. The shattering clumps of dirt flew towards Winny. Winny covered her eyes with only her arms. “You shall never make a joke out of me! Are you insulting me because I’m overweight or what?!”
            “How does this even come up into the conversation?” Winny thought to herself. She quickly turned around and ran for a fancy tigerman statue. She hid behind it but Anietta only made the statue shatter with the power of gravity.
            “You can’t stop me from controlling air, temperature, and gravity!”
            One after another, Winny tried to hide behind several statues. “You do know that these monuments are from past important leaders of the tigermen tribe do you?”
            “Does it look like I care?!” She smashed every single one of the statues that Winny hid behind.
            “(I don’t care either but I thought that excuse would work.)” Winny checked all around the courtyard. “This is beautiful news.” She said to herself. “There seems to be nowhere to run.” She took sight of the tall building in front of her. However, she barely had space for herself. On one side was the wide courtyard but Anietta stood there, blocking the whole path. The other side was the large building that she had no time to enter due to Anietta’s swift movement. There were steps but she could not make it in time to run.
            After the last statue has been shattered, Anietta lifted Winny into the air. “Once I raise you up so high, I’ll drop you like a splattered potato!!! Hahaha!!!!”
            “Wouldn’t a tomato be more appropriate? A potato would be harder to spam because it-…”
            “Shut up! I’m tired of your annoying bickering!”
            “Aren’t you the one bickering here?”
            “SHUT UP!!” She made Winny fly upward faster. “Die, die, die!” She tried to lower her hands as fast as she could but she suddenly froze. She was shaking. “D… Get… Get away, far… from here... Young girl…!”
            Winny looked that her eyes were shifting. “What was that just now?” She was surprised.
            Anietta suddenly said angrily, “Just die!” She lowered her hands swiftly but Winny quickly threw her Changmin ball at Anietta.
            “You may be focusing on me, but you’re not focusing on my boyfriend, Changmin!” The ball flew towards Anietta’s face. Anietta fell to the ground after being attacked on her forehead. This made her arms weaken and Winny jumped to the ground in peace.
            Anietta was trying to keep her balance from falling over. “Ergh… that hurt, you bastard!!” Her forehead bled.
            “Oh. I didn’t mean to injure you that badly!” Winny’s giddy side spoke.
            “You bipolar piece of crap!!!! How do you even have a boyfriend?!”
            Winny’s Changmin ball returned to her. “You do not talk about my man that way!”
            “But he’s green and round!”
            “Well I like it that way!” Winny was squealing in her giddy form.
            “How does that even work?!”
            Winny suddenly became serious. “As long as my Changmin always comes back to me, I know he loves me! We fight together!”
            Anietta laughed. “Hah, that’s ridiculous. Let’s see what you two can do then!” Anietta and Winny both readied their attacks.
 ~~~
            Jennifer was watching the entrance to the hideout. “So, Rowen and his stupid lackeys are in there.” Lupe and Brandon followed her to the hideout. “It’s best if we go in and fight with the group.”
            Lupe grabbed Jennifer’s arms softly, “But your arms are injured. We cannot let you, or ourselves to risk our lives. Our friends in there are completely strong. Some are even strong than us.”
            “We don’t need other people to fight along us. We’re strong already!” Jennifer walked in. Lupe and Brandon were becoming worried.
            Brandon said to Lupe, “It’s great that she wants independence, but we’re seriously going to get caught in an impossible battle against a tyrant.”
            Lupe and Brandon followed Jennifer into the building. However, upon entering, Jennifer only stood there. The three students noticed many fallen robots and the hallway was half open. The windows were shattered, the rooftop was broken off, and there was a hole below them. Jennifer clenched her fists. “This whole building is a mess… Can humans really do such things?”
            “Humans with superhuman abilities.” Lupe added. “They did this. Unlike them, our powers were not made for destruction, but more for confusion and threat.”
            Brandon stood in front of Jennifer. “All three of our powers: artistry, slide master, and an ammunition master cannot create broken holes or deviously shattered windows, and how do you explain the ceiling? If we follow our friends deeper into the hideout, we’ll only be a burden.”
            Jennifer stomped her foot. “Damn it all!” She headed back outside the hideout. “There is only one other solution then.” She left the building.
            Lupe became worried, “Brandon… what if she decides to do something reckless? We’re not meant to create harm…!”
            They followed her back outside the building. Jennifer said to all of the students who were resting outside, “Hey, everybody, listen up!” Huy and Shirley first turned around, followed by the rest of the students. “I have an announcement to make.” She thought about it carefully and then she continued, “The hideout is extremely dangerous at the moment and destruction is everywhere. So, here’s my proposal…” Lupe and Brandon were eager to listen in on what she is going to say. Joey and Julie watched her. “The Peridot soldiers all need your help!”
            Lupe became extremely happy. She hugged Jennifer with joy, “Oh my gosh!!” Brandon laughed at Jennifer’s change in plans.
 ~~~
            Meanwhile, the courtyard was still becoming a mess. Winny punched the ground before Anietta aimed at her with a pinch of gravity. Anietta was caught off-guard from the Stalagmite. Winny then threw her Changmin ball at Anietta which caused the large woman to fall on her back. At this rate, Winny caught the ball which flew back to her and then he ran towards Anietta.
            Anietta opened her palm and threw a large amount of cold air out of her hands. Winny tried to slow down her speed but the cold air already got to her left arm which was holding on to the Changmin ball. “Don’t you dare.” Winny said in her serious tone.
            Anietta giggled as she stood back up. “So there’s your weakness: that stupid tennis ball of yours.”
            “Excuse you?”
            “Hah hah hah! That’s so sad.” She controlled the air which crawled towards the ball. “So, what happens if I freeze it? And then… Shatter it?”
            The extremely cold air began freezing the ball. Winny used her other hand to stop the ice but the air had more control. Winny did not want to punch her left arm nor the Changmin ball. It would shatter to pieces. “If you break that ball, you’re going to pay!!”
            The ice completely froze the Changmin ball now. Anietta laughed barbarically. “GRAH HAH HAH HAH! Watching you in agony because of a stupid ball is hilarious!”
            Winny was extremely angry now. She clenched her teeth with rage. Anietta noticed that the ground below her was cracking. Winny’s bangs were covering her eyes. “You mess with my boyfriend… YOU MESS WITH ME!” The ground below her shook like an earthquake. Winny punched the ground with her right hand and the Stalagmite strided towards Anietta again. Anietta’s focus was becoming off-guard. She avoided the Stalagmite while trying to keep still with her air and ice.
            Winny punched the ground several times. “At this rate, I only have a few moves to stop you, but whatever it takes to save my boyfriend, I’ll do it!”
            Anietta was surrounded by large stacks of dirt again. “Ergh!” The ice dispersed from Winny’s arm and Changmin ball. With speed, Anietta hurriedly made the ground splatter flat with her air and gravity powers. “You’re not getting away with this!”
            “That’s it!” Winny had a plan. She turned around and threw the ball at the large building. Anietta stood there in confusion.
            “What does breaking a building do? Are you trying to run? I’m too fast for you, wherever you go.”
            Winny agreed. “You’re right, but there is something you haven’t noticed yet.”
            “Oh yeah? And what is that?”
            The ball that Winny threw bounced off the large building and flew towards Anietta’s face. “W-…” Before Anietta could speak, the ball smashed her face harshly onto the ground. The ball bounced back towards Winny and she made a run for the steps that were behind her.
            Winny waved at her, “Have a nice day!”
 ~~~
            The courtyard was on the first floor. Due to the steps, Winny was heading towards the first basement where Alex, Venus, and Jaime are standing. Winny eventually found them.
            Venus waved, “Hey! You made it out alive!”
            Alex hugged her. “Oh thank god, you’re alive, Winny! I wouldn’t want my K-Pop friend to disappear!” He began crying.
            Jaime scratched his head. “Ehm… what did you do to the large one?”
            “Anietta? She’s… alive, I think.”
            “You think?” Venus wondered.
            Jaime said to her, “Well, we have a feeling these people have been revive the wrong way.”
            Winny remembered that Anietta once warned her to run away. “I figured…”
            And so, Jaime, Venus, and Alex told Winny the whole story while finding the large hole towards the second basement…
