S1 Ep1 Ch5

"Tatha, were here! What should we do now?" Kylian brought his boys with him. "Hold on! You all cannot go without bringing us together!" It was another two girls at the same age, they followed the boys and find her.

Tatha was surprised that both of them came as well.

"It is because we find out that those spooky men kidnapped Diana right under our eyes! We are scared!" Said the one with long and red hair. "Yeah we are scared..." The one with depressed looks and grey mild hair said. "But that doesn't mean we can't help! We must work together now, letting bygones to be bygones!"

"Whatever it is, we don't know what will happen to her. The teachers are looking for us, make sure that we didn't do anything bad. But we know we can't stay dead like this, it is dangerous as we knew. So what can we do, Tatha?" As Kylian finish talking, they all look at Tatha. Willingly to work with her, to save the situation.

She felt happy about everyone get together, settling all differences. She then use body movements to explain what she's about to do. She knew some of the items in the festival are free and useful, they need to get them while hiding from both the teachers and cultists. But before that she would like to know what their teammates had first, including something special...

"I...can actually do this..." The depressed girl named Alphis show them that she is a Peculiar, and she can phased through objects. "I can do basically what an elf does." Kylian explained. "So that's why teachers can't get you...!" The red hair girl named Bristy yelled at him. Kylian only gave a meh expression to her. "Fine, I can stretch like rubber. Like this!" Bristy stretch her limbs very long and flexibly, she too was a Peculiar. Gary and Peric look at each other, they were sad about they were just normal kids. But Tatha also needs their help, cause they have to help out each other. After all, Bristy and Alphis just got into their powers and they never used them before due to hiding them from the teachers and others.

And so they have made their plan of action clear, Gary and Peric must help both Bristy and Alphis to gather what they need. Kylian needed to use his elven advantage to keep their targets occupied. While Tatha has something she had to do...she needs to find where is the commander of the policemen. She suspects that he had something important to do with what is coming, so she decided to approach him. She saw him right at a high building near the stage, and she is about to give herself in.

In the meantime...

Daniel is facing the cultists, with Rebecca and Diana behind him.

"Hello, I supposed that you are going to sacrifice us straight away isn't it?"

"You have been in our way for far too much, stranger! You all shall be sacrificed for the arrival of the Freedom Nation's own beasts." They were very unhappy and prepare to take action. But the next thing that Daniel does makes them all confused and distracted, surprised by his unpredictable actions.

"Okay, this is what I'm going to do." He walked towards one of the cultists and took his gun for himself. "First! I'm going to shoot you all right in the head with this gun!" They quickly realize this and take aim at him. "But obviously that is not fun enough, so take it back." He didn't fire a shot and just give them back the gun, and continue his loitering all over the shrine. He even went past or in with the cultists, like a really chill man. "Second, I'm going to punch each one of you! Beat all of you up so bad that no one will know that you even exist!" He just keeps walking and talking. "If I'm going to do a bit further? I'm going to set this place in flames and blast it into dust!" He finally stopped moving and standing with his hands wide open in front of the circle. Rebecca, Diana was confused and out of the situation. The cultists were more confused and were forgetting what are they going to do.

"But, am I going to do any of those? Of course not! I'm not that kind of person, so...Have a goodnight, everyone." Right when he ended his weird speech, the cultists were immediately shocked by a high voltage that is enough to take them out. "Your electric shock is no match compared to mine at all, foo! After all, I'm a Digital being, you need something stronger than EMPs to take me down." It was Bradley, she took out all of them.

"Good, now. Let us destroy this circle immediately. Rebecca, I leave the kids to you." He looked at her. "Get the job done, we will wait for you." She led Diana together and saves the other children whose about to be sacrificed.

"In the name of Jehvin, burn and leave this place!" The circle engulf in flames right after he said the prayers, leaving no trace and chance behind. He then tied all of the cultists and locked them up in the cell, he also makes sure that the lock was improvised by Bradley so that no one can open it easily unless he wants. He returns to the station entrance with Bradley on his side, seeing Rebecca already got all the children out. "What are we going to do?! The children right here and the festival! We can't let them stay here!" She asked him.

"Come with me, Rebecca. Don't worry, see the prison bus right there? Let's get the kids in there." He begins leading the children, he even befriends a few along the way. Rebecca doesn't know what he's going to do, she just follows what he did. "Don't worry about our cars, Bradley will take care of them. Just help me to take care of the children, 'cause it is going to be a hell of a ride!" He begins starting the engine and is ready to drive. "Wait what?! Don't tell me that you're...?!" She is panicked. "Too late, hang on!!!" He drove the bus and went straight forward to the festival at Huat Ville. "WAH!!!!! You are insane!!!!!" She is terrified. "Thank you!!!" He replied excitedly. They drove fast but cautiously along the way, with Bradley controlling their cars with them.

In the meantime, Tatha had found Maczie. She immediately went for him, to get to the commander. "Hello there little girl, can I help you?" He asked her. She use body movements to tell him who she was, which surprised him. "You're Tatha?! Oh my, you have grown up for all these years!" He was happy to see her, but he felt sorry for what he did at the same time. But Tatha only uses body movements again to tell him that she wants to have a great view at the festival with the commander. "Sure why not, he too likes children. C-come with me..." He is nervous about this despite knowing the truth.

"Ah yes, Maczie. Who is this girl?" He was eager to meet them. "Commander, she likes to share the view with you. She too had been knowing the great person that you are." He replied to him and show him Tatha. "Ah, of course. I'm happy about it. Come here, little one." He led her to the balcony. "What you're about to see, is a revolution and celebration. Where Rockchester will shine in new blood chosen by the best. So tell me, little one. What do you think that you have the honor to stay safe with me? For the Freedom Nation..." He begins his brainwashing, wanting her to join them. But she is not a fool, and she wants it to be here.

"Are these the last things we have to get? We have to be ready for everything now." Gary asked the others. "All being set up then we are ready to go!" Bristy signaled the others. Peric and Alphis already set up the last few preparations as well, they are waiting for Tatha's signal.

People didn't notice that fireworks, balloons, and lanterns are all over places they never noticed at all. This is how their plan works: The beautiful lanterns will be used as a part of a show, to attract everyone to the center of the fair. Then the balloons will carry a sign onto the air, marked as a warning on the matter if it would work or not. Then the fireworks will play more important parts later.

"So what is your answer? Little One?" He is still asking her.

Tatha didn't answer him. She just took out a pulling cracker that Kylian gave her from her pocket and pull it. "POW!!!!!" The cracker signaled everyone. As they released the lanterns, everyone was attracted according to plan. Because it's the Great Moon Festival, lanterns are important as a tradition. "Now!" They released the balloons, carrying a big sign saying: "Danger! Stay away from the sewer holes!" The people saw the sign but they were confused, but at least they were staying away and moving to the center a bit more. And finally, Kylian stops at a sewer hole with a cracker in his hand. "Kylian! Stop that! Don't!" Tammy saw what he was about to do. "I'm sorry teacher. You can scold me later!" He throws the light cracker into the hole...

"CRACKABOOM!!!!!" The whole sewers of Rockchester City were exploding inside. Using the flammable toxic air inside the sewers, the whole sewer was engulfed in powerful flames. The Vourmons inside haven't developed much enough, they were burned by the flames and explosions. They did it! Half of the Vourmons were killed along with the nest being destroyed, and half of them may have survived due to being early borns. But they at least made everything slightly easier. You might be asking, where are the policemen and the cultists? Welp, someone has already arrived. She already took out all of them easily and was heading for the fair.

"What is happening?! What did you do?!" The commander was angry at Tatha, like his expectations were crumbled. She only gave a smile and quickly ran off, which left him unable to catch her surprise. But she doesn't know the way to the exit of the building, so she went upwards. She came to the rooftops, but nowhere to run. "Hello there, naughty kid! You have nowhere to run!" The commander took out his gun, pointing at her. Forcing her to step back to the edge of the roof.

"This is not time to lecture me, Teacher! Tatha is in danger! Look!" Kylian pointed out what happen to her. They saw she is being trapped at the edge of the rooftop, about to get shot to death. "Tatha no!!!" They were too late, they had nothing to do.

"Goodbye!!!" He is about to fire his gun but right at that moment...

"WANK!!!!!" Maczie showed up, for the sake of his conscience. He knocked the commander with a chair. But the gun still fired a shot, it is a miss. But due to shock, Tatha still loses her balance and fall.

"TATHA!!!!!" Everyone was shocked and cried.

She is falling quickly....How can she never think of a way to retreat before executing her plans...As she was falling, she think back to the 10 years she have...So much, just so much more...

"Hey Tatha, wake up. It's far from being over...." A voice came into her. As she opened her eyes, she found herself floating in the air. It was Bradley! She grabbed her right in time. "Hang on! We're going down!" She flew back to the ground. Rebecca got her right below, hugging her dearly. "Oh, Tatha!!! I missed you!" She cried, and so was she. "YAY!!!" The children in the prison bus cheered. The people at the fair also saw what the corrupted authorities did, they cannot believe they were brainwashed by cultists. "Hello Tatha, we meet again!" Daniel exits the bus and meets up with them. She is happy to see him and runs towards him to hug him. "It's okay, it isn't over yet..." As he finished his words, he became serious...

"THUMP!!!" The half-other Vourmons reached the surface, about to devour everything they saw at the fair. "ROARRR!!!!!" They begin to attack the citizens at the fair. "Rebecca, take care of the kids." Daniel walks towards the Vourmons. His truck activated and drive behind him and Bradley show up again with all of her backups by his side.

The first snap! A machete flew out from the back of his truck and flew right to his hand. He has immediately slain seven of them. He then threw it and kill another one right in the head.

The second snap! A DaDao did the same and he use it to slay eight more of them. Threw it again and kill another one.

Tatha saw his true battles the first time, she is not terrified. She knew what he is doing, and did something that surprised everyone for this long time...

"GO GET'EM!!!!! DANIEL!!!!!" She shouted at him, cheering him.

Every one of the orphanages was surprised. Especially, Rebecca, she cried. "Oh, Tatha! You...you're...Speaking!" She cannot hide her happiness. Tatha also realized that she just speak for the first time after 6 years of silence, but she is not afraid and sad again.

The third snap! A Dao did the same and Daniel use it to slay seven of them again. Threw it and kill another one again.

Suddenly, a crossbones spear was thrown like a javelin. Killing a Vourmon in front of him. He turns back and saw who it was.

"Hello there, Bro." A girl with twin ponytails, dark brown hair, black specs, and wearing folded long sleeves light purple shirt and brighter black long leggings with brown boots showed up before him. "Hello, Toki." He greeted her. "So, these are the remains of them?" She retrieved her spear and asked. "Ah yes, you're right in time. There's still many of them." He continued to snap for the fourth time, a thin sword flew to his hand. He and Toki have slain a ton more of them.

Toki had Fantasm, she had pyrokinesis and can use freely and even empower her weapon. With such power, she burned a lot more of them. "HIYAH!!!!!" With one big flaming slash, another few of them died in one sweep.

The fifth snap! A pair of connectable gladius flew to his hand. He then threw it like a big wind blade, letting it automatically cut down a lot more of them. Six snap! A claymore flew to him, and he used it to decimate a lot more of them. Finally, he stabbed one of them with his claymore right to the ground. He then pulled out his usual sword with his Macro Pen dagger and slain a few more easily. Toki then sucks in the last Vourmons by spinning her spear with flames, creating a fiery tornado. She then leaps and strikes down like a meteor, bursting the tornado and melting the Vourmons. The city was saved from the monsters!

No one died in this event, everyone was saved. Daniel was very happy about this. He saw Tatha, smiling at him. He too returns a smile. Everybody was celebrating their survival, and children returned to families and friends. The Great Moon Festival ended with everyone being safe. The corrupted policemen were later all arrested by Paul's subordinates who came to help shortly and send straight to the prison. So were the cultists, they were arrested for creating religious chaos. Toki left earlier, after a short while of conversation with Daniel. She had received another distress signal from her car, and she have to go immediately. They part ways shortly after.

The next day at Jacksons Orphanage...

"Old Harvey wanted to support this orphanage, he will become a charity sponsor for you all. To make sure that both teachers and children had a better life. Basically, he is happy to work with you." Daniel gives them a charity contract. "Oh, we cannot thank him enough! We heard his name a long time ago, but seeing him helping us..." Tammy and Rebecca cannot believe their ears. "I was a Disciple under him, able to tell him about a wonderful place here. He cannot refuse to help, he had riches willingly to share with others. You can thank him well. But, time is up. I have to go. Hope to see you all again." He then retrieved the contract and prepare to leave.

"Thank you, Daniel."

"You too. By the way, I had something to say..." He stayed for a little while more.

He then arrived at the front field and playground. Someone was waiting for him right there.

"Are you going soon...I wish you can stay a bit longer..." Tatha was the one waiting for his leaving. She felt sad that he is leaving, and wanted to know more about him.

"I wished as well. But there are more adventures and places for me to go. Plus, I have to update my novels, I'm a writer. You know, you can be a good girl even without me. Cause I know you can, you're special, Tatha."

"Yeah...Hope we can see each other again...I wish it would..."

"It's alright. Or, you should really get some of your stuff ready for something better that is coming to you." He then walks towards the gate, leaving her confused for a while.

"Tatha!" Rebecca and the children called her. She looked at them, seemingly coming to do something. "What are you waiting for?! Asked him!!!" They encouraged her. She finally realized what is going on, and turn back to Daniel.

"DANIEL!!! I WANT TO COME WITH YOU!!! THOSE ADVENTURES!!! THE PLACES AND THINGS TO VISIT!!! I WANT TO GO WITH YOU!!!" She yelled at him. Daniel turns back to her, smiling at her friendly.

"Then what are you waiting for?" He asked.

"Really?!"

"Yes! But Rebecca had some more things to tell you!"

She looks back at Rebecca. "Tatha! Don't forget about this!" She came and give her the luggage she needs. "Remember to come back before every break ends, you still had school to attend okay?" She gave her last advice. "I will, Ms. Rebecca. Thank you!" She replied. "Go! Have fun seeing the world out there with him!" She sends her off.

Tatha runs back to Daniel, who is already waiting for her.

"So, are you ready?"

"Yes! I am!"

"Good, but first we're going back to Kingstown. I had reports and I need to go back to get some rest."

"I've never been to the capital before! It's okay!" She is so excited.

"Come on then. Into the truck, we go!" They enters the truck and opened the windows to say goodbye. "Goodbye! I'll be back! Guys!" She waves her hands and said to them all. "Goodbye! Tatha! See you soon!" They watch her leave.

On the highways, beautiful scenery went passed her sight. She enjoyed looking at such a vast world outside the walls, which she always dreamed of. Daniel didn't interrupt her, leaving her in her enjoyment with both music and scenery.

"For so long, never had anyone to really stay together with me for running around the world. But now, she is here. A good and talented girl she is, and excited to venture into this world. Tatha Micheals, you've changed my mind about staying alone most of the time. You'll like her very much, Sheryl...But only if you're here..."

He just continues his journey back home, to begin their new adventure.
