Chapter 15: Nica’s Mission in Green Plateau
The battle for Green Plateau was fierce but swift. Wousay’s mechanical army was a sight to behold, their metallic limbs glinting under the sunlight as they advanced across the lush fields. Vapor, Nica, and the rest of Team Vapor stood their ground, ready to defend the Plateau from destruction.
Nica adjusted her black glasses and shot a playful grin at the others. “Alright, guys, let’s do this! Time to show these tin cans what we’re made of!”
Valore stood beside her, already bouncing on the balls of her feet, eager for action. “I’ve got enough bombs to turn this field into a fireworks show!” she said with her trademark mischievous smile.
“Just don’t blow us up,” Acre muttered, his sword glinting in the sunlight as he readied himself.
Geo, ever the calm one, adjusted his tech gauntlets and nodded toward Vapor. “The fortress’s power grid is connected to these robots. If we can disable it, Wousay’s whole operation will go down in flames.”
Mira rolled her eyes. “Great plan, tech genius, but we’ve got to survive long enough to make it happen.”
Vapor stepped forward, his water powers swirling around him like an aura. “We’ll survive. Let’s show Wousay that Green Plateau belongs to us, not her machines.”
Nica clapped her hands together, purple energy crackling at her fingertips. “And don’t forget me! I’ve got the biggest beams ready to blast these bad guys to bits!”
With a united cry, Team Vapor charged into the fray.

The battle was chaos. Vapor used his water powers to flood the battlefield, short-circuiting several of Wousay’s robots. At high speeds, he darted between enemy lines, creating electrical surges that left machines sparking and malfunctioning.
Amber, Vapor’s younger sister, stayed on the outskirts of the battle, summoning shadows to entangle the robots and slow them down. “I’m helping, big bro!” she shouted, her dark powers swirling around her.
“Good job, Amber!” Vapor called back, dodging a laser blast.
Meanwhile, Valore was in her element, tossing bombs left and right with gleeful precision. “Boom! And another one! These robots are like walking fireworks!”
Nica, despite her petite frame, was a force to be reckoned with. Her purple energy beams tore through enemy lines, creating explosions that rivaled Valore’s bombs. “This is so much fun!” she giggled, spinning around and firing beams in every direction.
Acre and Geo worked together seamlessly. Acre’s sword strikes cut down any robot that got too close, while Geo hacked into their systems from a distance, causing some of the machines to turn on each other.
Mira provided backup, using her quick reflexes to take down any stragglers. “You guys are insane, but I love it!” she shouted, dodging a stray beam.
As the team pressed forward, Vapor and Nica reached the fortress’s core. Wousay’s silhouette loomed above them, her voice echoing through the metallic halls. “You think you’ve won? This is just the beginning!”
“Nope,” Nica said, stepping forward with a confident smirk. “This is the end of the line for you, lady!”
With a blast of her purple energy, she disabled the power grid, causing the fortress to tremble. Vapor followed up by unleashing a massive water surge, flooding the core and shorting out the remaining systems.
“NO!” Wousay screamed as her machines powered down. “You’ll regret this, Vapor!”
But Vapor simply stood tall, water swirling around him. “Not today, Wousay. Green Plateau is safe.”

As the team emerged victorious from the fortress, the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the plateau. Everyone was tired but smiling, their spirits high after the hard-fought battle.
“So,” Valore said, wiping some soot off her cheek, “what’s next? Do we get medals or something?”
Nica perked up, her glasses slipping down her nose. “Ooh, ooh! Can we get food? I’m starving!”
Vapor chuckled. “Food sounds good. Let’s celebrate with a victory meal.”
“McDonald’s?” Amber asked, her eyes lighting up.
“McDonald’s it is,” Vapor agreed, and the team cheered.

At the McDonald’s in Star Island, Team Vapor took over a corner booth, their laughter and chatter filling the restaurant.
Nica was devouring a Happy Meal, her small frame barely able to hold the tray. “This is the best day ever! Beating up bad guys and getting chicken nuggets? I’m living the dream!”
Valore was busy building a tower of fries while Geo tried (and failed) to stop her. “They’re not for architecture, Valore!” he sighed.
Acre sat back, polishing his sword as he enjoyed his meal. “I’ll admit, this was a good fight. We worked well together.”
Amber was happily munching on an ice cream cone, her dark powers momentarily forgotten. “We’re the best team ever!”
Mira smirked, raising her soda cup. “Here’s to Team Vapor. Saving the day and eating burgers like champs.”
As everyone raised their cups in a toast, Vapor looked around at his friends and family. Despite the chaos and challenges, they had come out on top. For now, all was right in their world.
And in the corner, Nica grinned, her eyes sparkling with genuine joy. “I think I’m gonna like it here,” she said softly, already looking forward to their next adventure.
