The Powerless

Let's wrap this up

       The tale is coming to a close. There's two lovers in this. Three now. Moxie, the werewolf, had asked, Oklahoma, the girl with the box, out and exchanged numbers. The escapees weren't impressed that they were flirting the entire time they were fighting. Friendships were made. The most recent being Emerald, the lone wolf, and Dallas, the toon, they became united because they both seem to be hard to kill. Love was lost. The most recent being, Carmen's crush, who didn't make an appearance, Beryl disappeared. Hopefully the dollith isn't broken.

These are all happy things to take note of. But let's stop upon a better ending.

It's been a few months and Powerless is still in the hospital. Having to go in and out of surgery for the hunk of metal in their back. They may have actually had wings at one point. But the machine welded into their back ruined it.

Powerless was finally signing out of the hospital. Cathy, Bayou, Cherry, Ember, and Luna all greeted him. All family. Because they had no one else to turn to.

"I don't think The Powerless is a very suiting title for you anymore." Bayou laughs.

"Can we change your name to The Merger? Is that allowed?" Cherry asks. In a soft robotic voice. Willing to protect who she happily calls her family. Though. For the longest time. She had no place to call home. And no friends she could trust. Often treated like a hunk of metal. And not another living being. So. She started treating everyone else in a similar manner.

"If your title is going to be The Merger, then I'm going to call you Merlin! He's a powerful dude. Kinda like you!" Cathy gives a happy giggle beneath her mask.

"That sounds.... Nice." They smile. They wore a white baggy shirt. To hide the scars on their back. And the technology they never could get out properly. Ember promised to make it into wings.

"I think we should go home." Cathy smiles.

"Wherever that is, Cherry hasn't told anyone where home is yet..." Ember laughs.

"You'll learn in a bit," Cherry laughs. "I told Cathy."

"Before we go. Cathy. I have one question. Why do you wear that mask?" Merger asks.

"I'll tell you when time comes." Cathy sighs. Clearly not wanting to talk about it. Though. Everyone was joking hands. To leave. To go home. Cathy uses shadow travel to get them all there.

And home. Is a mansion. "Where did you get the money to buy this?" Luna is astonished.

"Well. I'm a mafia boss. Along with a drug dealer. And I do have the finest drugs here. So everyone is buying from me. So of course I have a lot of money."

"But why buy this?" Merger asks.

"The only place with a green house." Cherry shrugs.

"Why does it need a green house?" Bayou raises an eyebrow.

"So I can have a room." Cherry says it as if it's nothing.

"Why do you need to sleep in a green house?" Ember queries.

"I'm a plant."

"No you're not." Cathy crosses her arms.

"I photosynthesis..."

"You mean, you run on solar energy?" Ember asks.

"....... yes....." cherry looks down. "Just go to your rooms. I have a job." She starts to walk away. And everyone else parted to there own ways. Though. That's simply how everything usually goes. And. As usual. All things come to an end. And this is the end for now. At least if this little adventure.
