Take-Over: A BFB/TPOT AU

Chapter 40: On Second Thought...

David & Coiny

"Hey, do you have something like this sphere thingy?"

Coiny held up a pale-yellow sphere. It shined in the light and was emitting a low hum. David stared at it curiously. Coiny just held it up, a little frustrated at David's silence. He was fine with David, but the coin would appreciate it if he talked more. David finally stopped and rummaged through his bag, pulling out a dark green orb. So he DID have one! David put both arms on it and the two of them watched as it glowed for a second, and David disappeared, leaving a gust of wind in his place. There was a zooming noise on his right and Coiny turned around to look and saw David, waving hi. Coiny fell over and they both heard a crack. Worried, Coiny stood back up quickly and held the sphere. There was a large crack in the yellow ball, and the light flickered. He felt a tap on his shoulder and turned to David. He pointed to his ball then to himself, making a running motion. Coiny sat there, confused at what he was talking about. He looked again at the damaged ball before connecting the dots.

"Wait, did the ball give you super speed or something?!"

David gave him a thumbs up, and Coiny fisted his hand in the air. He looked back at his ball and wondered what it did to him. He held it up to his face and it glowed brightly like how David's had before. He looked around, feeling tense. He felt like stretching. And throwing something. He grabbed a thick branch and squeezed it tight, preparing to throw it. When he did, it pathetically fell to the ground in pieces. He felt embarrassed and quickly found another stick. He tried again, but it fell to the ground the same way. Annoyed, he took a broken log and snapped it in half with his bare hands. His eyes opened in surprise and dropped the two pieces on the floor.

"Aw, seriously?"

David's mouth was wide open, surprised at Coiny's strength. Was he always that strong? Or maybe... He looked down at the yellow sphere, which was on the floor next to Coiny's backpack. That's extremely useful... David kept eyeing it, making a mental note of it in his head. Coiny soon rushed over to him and shared his excitement to him. David just put on a smile and grinned. Thinking hard about the sphere.

"Uh, Teardrop? Is that you?"

No response. Ice Cube tensed up as she gave a nervous look to Dora, who just stared and stayed in place, a few feet away from Ice Cube and Teardrop. Her and Dora were sent out by the rest of their team to find Teardrop, and it looks as though they've found her. There was something wrong with her though. She was bright red and twitching. She didn't move, but the air was thick with suspense and fear. After moments of stillness, Teardrop leapt towards Ice Cube, her hands having suspiciously large claws. Ice Cube just ducked, closing her eyes, afraid of what was about to happen. Luckily, Dora acted and pushed Teardrop away from Ice Cube. Teardrop opened her mouth as if to screech, but no noise came out. Dora spread her arms protectively around Ice Cube, who was still frozen in terror. (See what I did there?) This went on for a while, and Dora's stamina wore out. She was panting, while Teardrop seemed unfazed. She lunged towards them again, and Dora put her arm out in defense.

Big mistake.

Teardrop bit her arm, and Dora fell to the ground in pain. Ice Cube quickly scrambled back, watching as Dora convulse painfully, turning as red as Teardrop. She fell to the ground, as both Ice Cube and Teardrop watched suspensefully. After a while, she stood back up, facing Ice Cube with the same coldness that Teardrop once did.
Knowing that she was in danger, she quickly left the scene, screaming as loud as she could. She felt the two close behind her, chasing her down. But she didn't stop running. She kept running and running, afraid of what would happen. She hid behind a tree and stayed there, struggling to catch her breath. She felt something teleport besides her and looked. Dora was besides her, hand outstretched. Ice Cube screamed and ran in the other direction. She ran a short distance, the house only a few meters away. She smiled, glad to finally be safe. Oh, thank you! Thank you-

Slam!

Teardrop caught up to her pushing her face into the ground. Ice Cube kicked her legs into the dirt, yelling and crying for her to get off. Teardrop just held her in place, with a blank look on her face. After a while, she finally grabbed her leg and bit hard into it. Ice Cube felt something enter her body, and soon felt her conscious drifting away. She stopped moving and Teardrop got off of her. Teardrop disappeared, and soon Ice Cube stood up, a completely different person from before.

"This is SO BORING!!"

Bottle laid on the floor, all alone. The rest of her team had gone out to hunt and patrol, leaving Bottle all alone. She regretted letting Black Hole leave in her stead, although she bet, he was enjoying his time right now.
Cut to the boys:

"So, do you guys prefer swords or bows?"

"Swords definitely! They're really cool! One time, me and Eraser-"

"I'm more of a bow person. Attacking from far away is more my style."

"That makes sense, I dislike both. I can't hold either of them."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bottle looked around the large base. In 10 minutes, she had already explored everything, from their rooms to the secret food stash somebody kept in the back of the cabinet.

She couldn't believe Black Hole stayed all alone like this for hours. How? She decided to go on a walk, besides, they wouldn't know if she went out for a second. She quickly opened the door and ran in the opposite direction that they went. Fresh air! She squatted down and picked a flower, smelling it and dropping it back on the floor. She walked around happily and didn't notice that the boys were approaching her unnoticing.

"So THAT'S why you owe 500 vigintillion dollars? Wow, you sure were desperate huh?"

"I know my lesson now! You don't have to keep talking about it."

"What are we going to talk about then? Nothing has happened since- Oh, Hi Bottle. Since I asked if you'd like-"

"Wait, Bottle?!"

The 3 of them looked as she noticed them and approached them with a nervous look on her face.

"Heeeey guys! How was the patrol?"

"Why are you here? Did something happen? Did somebody break in?!"

"Chill Tree, I just wanted some fresh air."

"Well, it's not safe out here. Especially with what's happening with our other members."

"Am I ok? Yes, so calm down and relax-"

"BOTTLE WATCH OUT!"

Pen pushed her out of the way, causing her to collide with a tree and crack even more. Pen held his arm, which now had an arrow in it. He looked around and saw Bomby and Barf Bag, with Bomby having a bow in his hand. She said something to him, and they left. Pen tried to warn his team, but they were all too busy worrying about Bottle. Tree tried to patch her up, but more pieces came out. Black Hole didn't help as he accidentally sucked up the pieces. Pen tried to pull out the arrow, but it only hurt more, and the ink came out spilling twice as much. He felt dizzy and couldn't see straight. He passed out, more ink spilling out.

"What are you guys doing? I'm fine! Worry about Pen! He's dying!"

"Oh bark!"

Tree quickly ran over to him, putting his hand over the wound. He picked him up and asked Black Hole to take care of Bottle. They all quickly ran towards their base, and hoped that they wouldn't lose a member today
