Florida's Stories

CHAPTER 13 - The Rivalry

**Date- January 14th 2022**

~Florida POV~

"What do you mean, 'help Anatnom'? I thought you were with us in this argument?" I asked. "I was never on your side," Pizza replied. "It was all part of my plan." "What plan?!" Alabama shrieked. "You'll find out soon enough," Pizza replied. "But for now..." Pizza put one of his hands up to his chest, revealing a small blue flame on his hand. "It's time to get more power.", "NONONONONONONO!!!!" Zordon backed away. "We...we can't let Pizzon happen again!! Not again!" "What's wrong?" I asked. "F.....forced f-fusion," he replied, trying to shield himself away from the raging Pizza. Alabama looked paralyzed with fear and Oklahoma looked like he was trying to stop whatever was going on. "Pizzon," Alabama muttered, "The guy was a total jerk." "No," Pizza raised his arms and started walking towards Zordon. Just as he was about to import forced fusion upon Zordon, Oklahoma's eyes lit up blue and then Pizza went backwards to where he was standing before that. Everyone froze except for Oklahoma, and he walked up to Pizza and slapped him right across the face. Then he put out the flame and moved Zordon behind him, setting up Zordon's hand to punch Pizza in the back of the head. Then we all unfroze and Zordon punched Pizza in the back of the head and he was so confused. Pizza had this giant bruise on his face from where Oklahoma had slapped him, and a bruise on his head from where Zordon punched him. Zordon was confused too, because he didn't remember being behind Pizza in the first place. He was happy though. Pizza, on the other hand, climbed back into the elevator thing and went back down. Cyto Ariz and Anatnom were nowhere to be found.

~Zordon POV~

Hello again, It's Zordon. We met Pizza today and it confirmed my theory of him being evil. He was levitating because of his sheer power and he lit up a blue fire on his hand, then I got a sudden feeling that's similar to deja vu, then realized what happened before, and now I knew why he was evil and why he came to destroy us all. It looked like he still thinks we have a rivalry after that incident that happened on Arap- Then Flori cut off my thoughts by shaking me while I was standing there. I knew what Pizza was up to and I panicked and backed away. I was prepared to dodge Pizza but then I suddenly punched him in the back of the head and felt like my memory of the past 5 seconds got erased. Pizza fled and Goo Ariz and Anatnom were nowhere to be found. I was confused but Oklahoma explained what happened and I realized... We had a powerful teammate to help get Ariz back. We went back home. Flori asked: "What was that about?" I was confused so I asked him what he meant by that. "Your eyes flashed purple," he answered. Then I realized I should probably tell him what happened in the past. I started: "Once upon a time, I had a powerful rivalry with Pizza. We were fighting with each other every thursday. But one time, an unhappy incident took place. The date was October 14th and we were fighting as usual, until Pizza blasted me with a ball of what I assumed was energy and I was badly hurt. I passed out and woke up the next day without any memory of what happened before and about 90% of my strength was gone. I regenerated during the night but it seemed to exhaust my regeneration powers. Pizza flew down to me and looked like he was about to explode and then bolts of Orange flew from his body and he disappeared in a fire. Luckily, none of them hit me but they hit you. You passed out and I shook you till you woke up, you were acting crazy and had powers that you never had before. You went to Venus and then you passed out when a solar flare hit you. I took your body to earth and when you woke up, you didn't remember anything that happened on that day. Everything was normal and soon the memory of the incident faded away until Pizza struck again today..."
After I told Flori the story, his mouth was wide open and he almost fainted. It was late so I went to bed.

~Florida POV~

I feel like stuff is starting to make sense now. The things that happened before I'd gone to Venus that day was because of Pizza. Pizza was evil and he had come to live with us for a while because he felt he could change. After he and Montana and Jersey left to build that house, Pizza had probably snuck away to go and say goodbye to his father and go explore.
