Saving the World from Fire... With Fire

Chapter 5- Chaos? We call it fun!

Alphie and I had a plan. Sort of. Make a mess. Create some chaos. Free the people. Anger Arlo. And don't get caught. Something of that order. I gave Alphie one more mischievous smile before flying down the hill. I am a galaxy-class trouble maker. 

Alphie went to the left side of the side and I claimed the right. We would meet up at the very prestigious looking skyscraper in the middle of the city. We didn't really set a time limit for when to meet there. Basically, if I got there first, I was just going to shoot up some firework type designs so Alphie would know to hurry up. If Alphie was there first, well, he would just have to wait. He wasn't cool enough to shoot fire. I laughed to myself as I was mentally picking on Alphie. Poor thing was here to defend himself.

I ran into the first building I saw. Thinking back on it, that probably wasn't the wisest idea. I ran straight into a mess hall filled to the brim with mutants. Yeah........ not my best moment. I had to admit, as ugly as the mutants were, their mess hall was beautiful. A smirk overtook my face as I noticed that everything was finished in wood. Even the two giant chandeliers were wooden. Someone REALLY likes the wooden look. Unfortunately for them, helping people remove of wood was my specialty.

All eyes were on me as I absorbed my surroundings. Then, in an instant, everyone was on the feet/claws/paws/hands and stalking towards me. Me being the genius I am, decided to be a bit more........theatrical.

"Hello all you lovely looking mutants!" I greeted, a huge grin stretching from cheek to cheek. All the mutants hissed or growled. 

"Well, that's no way to treat a lady, now is it?" I have to admit, I was having fun. 

More hisses and growls.

"Huh. And to think, I came all this way to greet you all personally." I was fake pouting now. 

Silence.

"Well, don't just make me stand here. I AM a guest!" 

More silence. 

"Fine then. I guess I will just have to entertain myself." Right before I did what I wanted, I spotted one of the mutants from the almost-attack.

"Yo what up, my furry homeslice?" I directed my question at the bear/eagle mutant.

"I am not your 'homeslice'!" it growled. I was honestly taken aback. I didn't know mutants could talk...

"Woah! You talk!"

"Of course, I do! How do you think we communicate?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmm. Hisses and growls?" 

I was given a flat look. Well, I think it was a flat. The bear head made it extremely head to see any sort of emotion.

"Well, I'm bored and you guys are crap hosts. Let's get this party started!" Then I flicked flames onto my fingers.

All the mutants were instantly uneasy, shuffling from one foot to the other. This was encouraging! I was done playing games. Now, the real fun started. I shot flames and lit the chandeliers on fire. All the mutants were frozen, either from shock or fear I don't know. I took my chance and flew out of the building. I knocked down trash cans, carts, and anything else I could possibly find in my way. None of the mutants would be hurt by my fire. It was meant to destroy items, but not anything living. How this knowledge found itself in my head, I don't know. All I knew was that it gave me every right to light as much of this town on as fire as possible. The next building I came to was empty. I was a huge, round room with domed ceilings. Again, everything was made of wood. Did they WANT me to burn everything? I quickly lit the room and skipped out.
