Five Sparks of Life: The Blossoming Beginning

Episode 17: A Broken Promise

(You know, I believe the next series I will watch is Amphibia. I heard a lot of good things about it. Also, with nothing new and Spy x Family finished, yeah, I am a little bored. I'm kind of over Marvel at the moment, but I am sure that won't last forever. Happy New Year! Thanks for reading and enjoying the story! Enjoy!)

              Randy was running to his townhome with Star behind him. They heard the news and ran as fast as they could to it. Randy was thankful Howard and Theresa were able to cover for him while Star was lucky, she didn't have a boss. They reached the door as Randy tried to find his keys.

"We don't have time for this!" she said as she kicked his door and rushed in, "How is he?! Where is Lapis?!"

Randy went to fix his door as Star was saddened to see Danny on the couch and no Lapis. Randy finished fixing his door and went to see them. Kim explained what she heard from Danny as Randy went downstairs to grab the book.

"I think we need to talk with the Nomicon" Randy said seriously as he held the book and gave it a glare.

"Uh, why are you glaring at a book?" Jazz asked as Randy screamed and tossed the book in the air until he caught it.

He was pointing at her and trying to form words as Kim answered, "She already knows. We will be back, but please watch our bodies and your brother as well as a book. Don't ask, but the book is somewhat alive"

Jazz slowly nodded her head as she saw the three of them sitting on the floor with Randy holding the book. He opened it as they fell unconscious with the book on the floor and between them! Jazz wasn't sure what she was witnessing, but at this point she wasn't going to question it and let it happen.

"Woah!" Randy exclaimed as he was falling while Kim was putting her feet forward.

Star fell on her side while Randy fell on his stomach. Kim landed on her feet as she looked forward to see their teachers appearing before them. Randy and Star stood up as they faced their respective teachers, but they were not happy.

"We know you are angry" Yamato said calmly.

"Oh, angry does not begin to cover it!" Star snapped, "What is happening to our friends?!"

"A being of chaos has her and was able to exhaust Danny" Katara explained with concern, "But I do not know how this happened. Lapis was warming up to you. Did you do anything to her?"

Randy and Star fell silent while Kim tried to think of anything they could've done to harm her.

"We don't know" Randy answered quickly, "But tell us how we can help her and Danny"

Star pulled Randy's arm to stop him while Kim held a concerned expression.

"Oh, ghost boy is fine" Jack Frost reassured them as he sat on his stick, "He's just exhausted from using his powers too much. He'll wake up soon enough"

That did relieve them a bit, but Kim was worried about something else.

"Danny mentioned something concerning Lapis" Kim said slowly, "Something was wrong with her. She seemed to be resisting whatever was holding her back, but she wanted us to get away from the "being of chaos". I am not sure what it means"

The group froze or blinked at her.

"Well, we didn't expect that title to be used again, now did we?" Jack joked as Jay nearly fainted at the mention of the name.

"Who is it?" Randy asked with concern.

"The "being of chaos" is Bill Cipher" Rose answered, "Although I never fought him when I was a heroine, he is a being of pure chaos. In fact, he was one of the first villains the book ever recorded. He is the reason chaos exists. Though, there was another hero who also used chaos as a power, so perhaps it is not just him. Regardless, the first hero was one who sealed Cipher away in this town"
