Firey's POV:

It's been a while since I went out with Teardrop,oh Teardrop. She's so nice,and I can't believe I got together with her. Besides how great she is,there's just something about her that draws me in,and I can't explain it. Well,never mind! I'll text her to see if she wants to go out.

Teardrop's POV:

C:How's life treating you?

TD:Fine. I kinda miss Firey.

C:Firey. That kid just has something about him.

TD:Don't tell me you're trying to steal my boyfriend from under me.

C:Not that,I swear! I have a boyfriend, you know that, right? But it's something else.

TD:Never mind.

I got a text,and it was from Firey!

Firey:Hey Teardrop,I was wondering if you wanted to go out again.

Teardrop:Sure! I have something in mind,just wait for me.

Firey:Okay?

I ran past my sister Ice Cube and walked out the door. I kept running towards Firey's house. After running like the end of my life was near,I made it to Firey's house. I knocked on the door, and someone unexpectedly answered. It was a paintbrush. "Firey,get over here!" Paintbrush yelled. Firey walked in sight and walked out the door with me.

Leafy's POV:

I woke up to see Balloon playing with a knife. Where did he get a KNIFE? "Give it here." I demanded. "No,you haven't taken me to the mesuem yet,and I deserve my reward." Balloon responded. "I gave you a bed,that's your reward." I replied. "I know you used my powers to do that. I'm not stupid. And anyway, I'm trying to prove that the museum isn't even worth all the rage. Why couldn't I get a statue?" Balloon asked,clenching the knife in his hand. "Okay,fine. Just don't make a scene, please? And don't kill anyone there." I said. "Uhm-No promises,but sure." I forgot to ask about something weird,so I just blurted it out. "How come you haven't popped back into my head yet? I thought you said you couldn't leave for more than 10 minutes." I asked. "That's because you're letting me stay out,and are you coming or not? I'm gonna go myself if I have to." Balloon responded. He annoys me sometimes,but in a nice way. I jumped out of bed and walked out the door,walking behind him. How the hell-heck did he have so much energy in the morning? When I wake up, I'm always cranky. I tried to keep up with Balloon,but I guess he had even more energy than I thought he did because he started printing through Inanimate Avenue and ran towards the mesuem. I didn't know what he wanted to do in there anyway,but I knew he wanted to go. Balloon was out of sight,but I knew where he was going to,so maybe I could create something to help me get there quickly? I thought hard about it,then a little glow of red came out of my hands,then a bike shot out of my hands. Apparently, this was the best I could do,so I had to take it. I hopped on, and it started peddling by itself? I guess it was a special bike,I was thinking of something drivable but automatic. After riding my way to the mesuem,I saw Balloon waiting at the entrance of the building. "Wow,you've gotten quicker! Improvements all across the board! But you still took pretty long,it's been 7 minutes." Balloon criticized. "Oh shut up! It's hard making things out of thin air,okay!?" I responded. "The technique itself is extremely simple,if you can understand how it works,you can create it yourself. Although that explanation could be wrong,I've heard of powers being changed through combat,but mine hasn't done anything like that." Balloon explained. "Wait,so you're telling me that the technique could get more complicated with time?" I questioned,making eye contact. "Well,yeah, but it's not exactly guaranteed,and it's not complicated." Balloon said,testing my patience. "Well,I'm tired of waiting. Let's just go inside the stupid,dumb dumb museum." I said bluntly. "I couldn't have said it better! Come with me,the fascinating truths about history awaits! Although I actually hate history,learning about this kind of stuff could help me and you with our technique." Balloon replied,dragging me inside. Near the entrance, there was a big sign saying, "Meet and greet with one of the heroes who brought down the final four!" I was staring at the sign until I heard a sound. It was Balloon scowling through his teeth. "They're making a fucking meet and greet out of my grand plan? I'll blow this place up,so help me object kind won't be able to stop me. Oh, I can't wait to see who's doing this STUPID,DUMBASS greeting." Balloon said,gritting his teeth. He dragged me to the meeting grounds and burned the sign down. (He made a lighter to do it,don't question it, alright? It'll be easier if you just roll with it.) Everyone starred out us until we made it to the booth. "Alright,who am I signing this to?" The nickel questioned. "Balloon Helios." (It's It's play on helium,again do NOT question me on my craft bucko) "You made it out of prison? No matter,I'll just beat you back in your cell." Nickel said,walking out of the booth. Balloon followed suit,dragging me. "You just had to start something, huh?" I asked Balloon."Yes. Yes,indeed, I did. I have a problem with people who are 3 foot and talk big." Balloon said,nonchalance noticeable in his voice. Suddenly,a spike formed under us,Balloon pushed me out of the way and jumped out of its range himself.

Balloon's POV:

He had an awakening? No problem,I'm still greater. I dashed towards Nickel,fist coiled back. He dodged my punch and shot a couple of spikes at me. I blocked them with a shield until a ray of fire hit my back. It was that Firey kid. Great, 2 agaisnt 1. This won't be easy anymore. Firey's flames kept coming at me, and Nickel's attacks followed suit.

Nickel's POV:

The man I fell in love with is right here,and I'm attacking him. Nonetheless, he's a villain, and I have to beat him,maybe steal a kiss while I'm at it. There was a kid helping me,I didn't know who he was, but I don't think it matters.

Balloon's POV:

I sidestepped Nickel's spike attack, but Firey made it behind me. I couldn't block in time,and it seemed like that attack was his strongest. Well,I've had a good run.

Firey's POV:

Teardrop took me to a mesuem,but then I saw Balloon fighting Nickel and I had to help him. I had him with my attack,Heat Wave. I felt the move connected, and his body went in flames. I jumped back,not sure if he was dead or not,but I felt the move piercing his body all over,no type of regeneration could save you from an attack of that scale.

I walked away from the scene until I heard something. "Hey! That was close,but not close enough,I'm afraid!' Balloon said. No way. I killed him. "I felt it.. I'm sure I burned you to a crisp." I asked,confused. Teardrop was hidden behind me. "Oh, but you didn't! What you touched was my new and improved technique! The concept of infinity! Allow me to break it down for you. My primary power is to create mass from nothing using the knowledge of how it's supposed to work. But it's not just creating mass,it's manipulation of mass at an atomic level. I created a barrier out of nothing at all,and using the concept of invincibility and invisibility made a barrier that's infinite! My attacks can also be amplified with this "Infinity" as well! In other words,you've helped me awake an ability I never knew I could ever use! Or to dumb it down,a barrier that stops attacks entirely. " Balloon said and explained,smiling maniacally. "So what? You can't hold that forever. I'll just keep attacking it until it shatters." I replied. Teardrop walked to my side,it seemed like she was going to help too. "Is that right? You don't understand how amazing I feel right now,and this isn't all." Balloon explained,now glowing purple. "Now, this is where you give up,or you die." Balloon added. "Balloon,please, this is insane. Just stop it! I still remember the old Balloon,kind and funny,sweet, and never ever thought about hurting others. We can go back,just like the old days." Nickel reasoned. "Balloon,let's just go home. It was a bad altercation,let's leave before Meeple finds us!" Leafy added. (Mass Energy Effficent Police Liberation Exceution Unit,or the government I just wanted to make an acronym)

Leafy's POV:

A small smile appeared on Balloon's face,and his glowing thingy disappeared. "Alright,I'll forgive these guys for trying to kill me. And Nickel..." Balloon said,approaching the coin. "Hey, wait,I'm sorry -" Nickel was interrupted by Balloon kissing him. "Famillar?" Balloon asked. "I-uh shut up!" Nickel mumbled. "Awww!" I said. "Ewwww." Firey responded. Firey grabbed Teardrop's hand and walked out the mesuem. "Well,that's my cue,let's go, Leafy." Balloon said, walking towards me. Nickel grabbed his hand (with his leg? It was a weird scene to write, okay?) "Come back,please." Nickel practically begged. "Alright,can't get enough of me, huh?" Balloon replied. Balloon then quickly grabbed me and bolted out of the building. "So about that "Infinity" thing,could I do it too?" I asked. "Maybe you could? You're pretty much a mini version of myself in terms of powers,so eventually, you should probably have that ability awakened or not. Who's to say?" Balloon responded. You know what? Never mind,it'll pop up later in my life. "Can you just get us home quicker?" I questioned. "Oh,yeah, I forgot I could do that." Balloon said in response. His hands glowed green,and then a motorcycle popped put. He got a motorcycle, and I got a stupid bike? No fair. I hopped on the motorcycle, and he did the same. It just drived on its own,just like my bike. We arrived home, and I greeted my brothers and walked to my room,Balloon, following me. "Weird day,right?" He asked. "Yeah,very weird indeed." I responded,getting comfy and ready to sleep.

Firey's POV:

I went home and lay down in my bed. God, that was weird,and I don't know how to react to it. At least Teardrop's fine. I walked her home,so she had to be.

The longest published chapter ever in my career as a wattpad story teller? I don't even know if that's a thing, but it's a long chapter, all things considered. Also, the next chapter will probably be released by June 9th.
