I could still see the huge smoke cloud in the far distance behind us. The A.C. was on but you could still see the sweat on Decibel's face. We roared past cars and the scenery blended again.
Dust quickly befriended the boys as thay noisely conversated with each other. The flash of the dust cloud's torture burrowed into my thoughts. I shuddered looking at Dust. The smile he had made at me made me quake in my skin. His smile was different now. The guys and him laughed happily as if nothing even happened.
Decibel swerved left to right, jamming out in his seat to MAMA by EXO-K, in his seat. He liked Korean Pop, KPop. Then the thoughts in my head shifted to Tangerine.
Her amorous eyes and envied hair cover her dangerous indulgences. At the restaurant, those bullet-like orbs, Iv'e never seen before, and they burned right through Decibel's shirt. I looked at him to see the wounds in his smooth side. I gasped as they slowly started to close. The blood around them seeped back into his body. Then I noticed that everyone had gone silent. I looked up at Decibel, smiling.
"Are you checking me out?" He asked, smiling harder. I gave him a disgusted face.
"How is that happening?" I pointed at one of the wounds that slowly healed. I reached out and rubbed my fingers on the place where it used to be. He pulled my hand onto his hard chest where another wound was. It buzzed under my fingers.
"The music." He kept my hand on him. It stopped buzzing until all I felt was his heart beat. I rubbed at the missing wound. He touched my face and I pulled back realizing his actions. He smiled at me then went back to jamming, now to History still by EXO-K. It was ironic how he was listening to a group who one of the members he resembles, D.O. I wondered if we had a healing ability too.
"Where are we going now?" I looked back at his shirtless chest. All the wounds had disappeared.
"Phoenix, Arizona." The car slowed down as we drove past the "Phoenix City Limit" sign.
"That was fast." Pink exclaimed. Sky agreed.
"How do you know Dust, Decibel?" I shifted in my seat.
"I captured him and brought him to Dark." He said. Dust avoided our conversation and asked Sky for some chips. "He didn't want to cooperate, well at first he did, until Dark ordered him to cover all of Ohio in dust. That's how I accidently drank pickle juice. I was sent to recapture him and we met on a pickle factory. We fought and he almost drowned me in a pool of it." Dust laughed softly in the back. "I regrained myself and agreed to help him. We were planning to get rid of Dark for good but then that's when he founded the three girls. At the moment we were going to attack, he jumped at Dark and Flor caught him in her arms, and with a touch, Dark 'blinded' him and I had to pretend that I still was." He turned off the car in the parking lot of a motel.
"How do you have all of this money?" I asked after he pulled out a thick wad of hundred dollar bills.
"Robbed a bank in Virginia." He got out of the car, leaving me stunned. He motioned me to go with him, the others already outside.
I opened the door and slowly got out. I followed the guys inside. Decibel got to the counter and ordered only one room. Well it came with three beds. I didn't argue. We went upstairs and opened our room. The boys rushed in and Sky turned on the T.V.
I walked over to a bed and threw myself on it. The room was comfortably cool. Dust climbed into one and Sky laid next to him. Pink got his to himself. Decibel jumped on next to me.
"Tired?" He asked. I nodded.
He smiled and set his attention on the T.V. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I woke up to a dark room. I sat up and Decibel's arm slid off of me. I rubbed his muscular arm on his bicept and lit the room dimly. I got off the bed and walked towards the door. I raised my light to the clock. Two thirty-three. I opened the door and staggered into the dark abandoned hallway. I walked slowly on the carpet. Then I felt something drip onto my shoulder. I looked up and screamed at what hid above me. It was a girl against the cieling. She dropped onto me and I almost passed out under her weight. She glided her hands all over my body, feeling my every feature. She lowered her face to mine until our lips met.
I tossed her away and spat out water. I coughed as though I had been drowned. I looked for her, my light still glowing. She disappeared. I turned and ran to my room, but before I opened the door a wet hand grabbed my and flung me back. I flew through the wall like...it was a wall of water. I slid across the dark room floor. I lit a ball again to find myself surrounded by waken girls. They looked at me with their sleepily confused eyes. They were all only wearing a bra and underwear. My face got hot.
Before anything else I ran at the wwall expecting to run right through it, but unfortunately, I slammed hard into it. the girls laughed, well until they saw the same girl ripple right through the wall that I just ran into. They screamed and crowded together in a half-naked group. I shot a beam, but it rippled harmlessly through her. She smiled and walked towards us. I tried to run past her, but before I got to the door I fell through the floor, barely missing the handle.
I crashed into another room. The girl poured through the floor after me. I spawned a light ball and jumped as she sprang into view. I closed my hand over the orb and it burst. the room quickly lit up, the air glittering with light. Next I energized my hands and attacked her. She grabbed me by my outward arm and tossed me through the ceiling, the sparkly air seeping through with me. The girls screamed as I flew into the air from the floor. Gravity quickly pulled on me and I slammed onto the floor.
"Ungh!" The air was pushed out of me. The girls tried to help me back up but dropped me when the water girl rippled through the floor. Again they hudled.
"What do you want?" I asked screaming at her
"You, Spark." She answered and then a volume of water crashed on top of me, forcing me to the floor. She knelt down next to me. "Name's Tsunami, by the way." A quick wave sent me, solidly and painfully, through the wall and another. I flew into the room and landed on top of Decibel.
"Spark!" He jumped up, Pink, Sky, and Dust too.
"You ok?" Sky asked. I was speechless. He helped me to my feet.
Just then a powerful surge of water swept him over the other bed. Tsunami jumped through the floor and slammed Decibel into it. Pink ambushed her with thousands of little water gnats. Dust's fists and arms turned into rock. Sky was back up and he blasted an icy wind at her face and a moment after that Dust dug his hard fist into it. She fell to the floor.
"Sky, that's it!" I yelled. He looked at me confused. "Let's take this outside." I knudged Dust and pointed to the wall that had the outside on the other side. He understood what I was asking and punched an opening into it. Then I looked at Sky. "Help me get her outside." I demanded and with a rush of air he threw her outside. She rolled violently across the floor after landing.
We jumped outside as she stood up.
"Dust, you're with them now?" She asked him. Her face had cracks in it.
He shrugged.
"Sky, we need to solidify her or our attacks will be futlile." I looked at him and he nodded.
Wind speed picked up and the air began to chill. She dropped to her knees frosted. Dust ran to her and swung a punch, again, into her face. She screamed in pain. He flew back as she shot another surge of water at him. She shivered to her feet but was knocked back down by Pink as a red bull.
"Stop it!" Everyone turned around to find Tangerine, Flor, and Sting standing there in the parking lot. "Go on, Tsunami, get out of here, we got this now." Tangerine said. Tsunami got back up and hurried, stumbling, away.
