Narrator: After returning to Fountain Town to search for the missing children, the girls learned that Officer William was the one, who was taking them. In a race to warn the Mayor, before William found out they knew, Aphrodite found the Mayor and told him about William. In a twist the Mayor's body changed getting younger and stronger, reveling that he is the one behind the missing children.
Start Scene. Aphrodite stands staring in shock at Mayor Youth's new appearance.
Aphrodite: (Amazed) Wow! How did you do that?
Mayor Youth: I used the youth from the children that have gone missing.
Aphrodite: Wait, you're the one who took the missing kids?
Mayor Youth: Yes, I just told you that.
Aphrodite: Wait, what about Officer Meanie?
Mayor Youth: William works for me. He gathers the children and takes them where I need them to be.
Aphrodite: So, where are they?
Mayor Youth: (chuckling) You think I'd just tell you. You really are an interesting one, it saddens me that I'll have to kill you.
Aphrodite: Not if I kick your ass first.
Mayor Youth: You harm me and the children will also be harmed, and you wouldn't want that on your conscious, would you?
Aphrodite: You big nose jerk!
Mayor Youth: Go ahead and insult me all you want. It won't help you.
Aphrodite: Ok. Big nose, big nose, big nose!
Mayor Youth: Go ahead and enjoy your fun, it won't last long.
Mayor Youth charges toward Aphrodite, hits her and knocks her on the ground. Aphrodite gets back up, angrily, staring at Mayor Youth.
Mayor Youth: Hm... I must not be at full strength yet, you shouldn't be able to even move.
Aphrodite: (Telepathically) The Mayor's the one that took the children, Officer Meanie is working for him.
Mayor Youth: You have nothing to say to me now?
Aphrodite: (Telepathically) He's using the kids to make himself younger and more powerful. I can't hurt him without hurting the kids.
Ember: (Telepathically) So what do we do?
Aphrodite: (Telepathically) I need you to find them.
Rose: (Telepathically) We've been looking the whole day and still haven't found anything.
Katana: (Telepathically) Then we will have to look harder. Do not worry my love we will find them.
Mayor Youth: Are you now realizing, you have no chance of winning? Are you just going to let me kill you? How sad, I enjoyed your boisterous personality.
Aphrodite: If I can't hurt you, then I'll just wait till my girls save the children.
Mayor Youth: Your friends are never going to find the children. I've made sure of that.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Ember is running through the financial distract, when William appears in front of her. William pulls a purple lollipop out of his mouth.
William: You girls just don't know when to give up do you?
Ember: (Hair ignites) I've been waiting to burn your ass, ever since Dite told me you wouldn't give her one of those. Now that I know what you did, I want to burn you up even more!
William: How pathetic.
William tosses the purple lollipop to the ground, then reaches into his pockets and pulls out four lollipops, one red, one blue, one yellow, and one green, and put them into his mouth.
William: You get mad over such trivial things.
Ember's fists become covered in flames, but before Ember move, William appears in front of her, punches her in the side of her head, sending her flying, before she hits the ground.
Ember gets back up, and rubs her head.
Ember: Bastard, you'll burn for that!
Ember pulls back her arms behind her, before throwing them forward, sending multiple balls of fire at William.
Ember: Spervuur!
The fireballs fly through the air, and hit William, who just stands there not even bothering to move. When the fireballs stopped, William's still standing there, almost completely unharmed, except for a small burn on his face, that quickly healed.
William: That was stronger than I thought, but still pathetically weak.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Rose is at the park, and returns to the spot she was yesterday, she sits down, closes her eyes.
Rose: (Thinking) If I can use the spell from yesterday, I can at least figure out which direction he took them, and go from there.
???: Would you like something to drink?
Rose, opens her eyes, and sees Gunter standing in front of her.
Rose: Gunter? No, thank you. I need quite if I'm going to find the missing children.
Gunter: You're not going to find them.
Rose: Why? Do you know where they are?
Gunter puts one hand up to the side of his mouth, and looking around quickly, before he bends over till he's right in Rose's face.
Gunter: I shouldn't tell you this, but I'm working for The Mayor, to kidnap the children.
Rose: So can you tell me where they are?
Gunter: I shouldn't tell you this, but I'm not allowed to tell you.
Rose: Really, now you chose to keep a secret! Fine, then I'll just have to force it out of you.
Rose hand glows green and she holds her arm out in front of her, with her hand held up.
Rose: Captionem Venus!
The ground underneath Gunter shakes, and a giant Venus Flytrap rises from the ground, and traps Gunter with it's leaves.
Rose: Tell me where the kids are, and I'll let you go. Better hurry, before the digestive enzymes start to dissolve your skin.
Two metal blades cut a hole in the leaves, and Gunter exists the plant carrying a pair of hedge clippers, the size of his body.
Rose: Where did that come from?!
End Scene.
Start Scene. Katana is running through the residential district.
???: Hey! Wait!
Katana stops running and looks around to see Peter running up to her. Peter is out of breath, and bends over putting his hands on his knees.
Katana: Are you alright?
Peter: Yes, just not use to running.
Katana: Is there something you need?
Peter straightens back up, and catches his breath.
Peter: I heard, you defeated Fredricks gang. Did they tell you anything about what happened to the kids?
Katana: No, they had nothing to do with it. The one behind it is the Mayor.
Peter: The mayor? No, no, you must be mistaken. The mayor has been trying to find the kids.
Katana: Believe me or not, I don't have time to talk about this.
Rose: (Telepathically) The bartender, Gunter, he's working for the mayor too.
Katana runs toward the stairs leading to the second level.
Peter: Wait, where are you going?
Katana: The bar, there may be clues there.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Ember stands across from William.
Ember: How are you not burnt to a crisp?
William: These are special lollipops, enchanted with magic. Each color provides me a different power. Red gives me enhanced strength, blue gives me enhanced defense, yellow gives me enhanced speed, and green gives me enhanced healing.
Ember: So what are the purple ones?
William: They're grape. Grape's my favorite flavor.
In a blur William appears before Ember, and punches her in the side, which Ember covers in fire. Ember gets thrown back, before landing on her feet. William's hand is burnt, but heals to normal.
William: Did you forget I can heal any burn you give me, or are you just too stubborn to care?
Ember: If I can burn you enough, there will be nothing left for you to heal.
William: You talk as though you could actually do it, but these flames of yours are weak.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Rose stands in the park across from Gunter who's holding his giant hedge clippers.
Gunter: I shouldn't tell you this, but I'm this town's champion gardener.
Rose: Champion gardener? Is that even a thing?
Gunter: Yes, their is no plant that I can not cut down.
Rose: That's not what a gardener does. A gardener is someone who tends to a garden, not just cut down plants.
Gunter: There is no way your plants will be able to beat me.
Rose: You're not even listening to me. Time for you to go to sleep, Sporae Somnum.
Small flower bulbs sprout all around Gunter, and then release a cloud of purple spores, hiding him from sight. When the spores finally went disappear, Gunter stands there wearing a gas mask.
Rose: Where are you getting all this stuff?
Gunter: Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm.
Rose: I can't understand you! Enough of this, Hortus Plectentes Spineam!
Rose holds out her glowing green hand, the ground shakes, and five big green vines covered in thorns, burst through the ground. The vines shoot out toward Gunter, who just opens the hedge clippers, and cut through the vines.
Gunter: Mmmm, mmmm mmmm.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Aphrodite, is still standing across from Mayor Youth.
Mayor Youth: So, big lollipop girl, are we just going to stand here all day?
Aphrodite: No, just until my girls save the children. Then I'm going to kick your ass.
Mayor Youth: Then I guess I should just get rid of you now.
Mayor Youth quickly appeared right in front of Aphrodite, and raises his fist to attack. Before Mayor Youth's attack lands, Aphrodite jumps into the air, stays there floating.
Mayor Youth: (Smiles) You're not an ordinary mortal... You have been blessed by the gods? How perfect.
Aphrodite: Nope, I am a god.
Mayor Youth: A god, even better.
Mayor Youth starts floating in the air, reaching the same height as Aphrodite.
Mayor Youth: I wonder what power I could get, if I used you instead of children.
Aphrodite: You're never gonna find out.
Mayor Youth flies at her, his fist pulled back preparing to punch. Aphrodite dodges and flies away, Mayor Youth chasing after her.
Mayor Youth: You can run all you want, but you will never be able to stop me.

William: You don't get it, burn me all you want, but...
Four small fireballs fly toward Williams face. William bends his head back dodging two of them, the other two hit two of his lollipop sticks. William spits out the two burning lollipops to the ground, the yellow and green lollipops hit the ground and broke. William reaches into his pocket.
William: You think that will stop me, I have more where they came from... huh?
William pulls his hand out of his pocket, his hand was covered in a sticky rainbow colored liquid.
William: (Thinking) What? Did she just keep throwing flames at me knowing it would melt my lollipops? Here I assumed she was just stupid and reckless.
William: I'll admit that was a smart plan.
Ember: Plan? What plan?... I mean, yeah you bet it was! (Whispering) I have no idea what he's talking about...
William: But, I can still beat you without those two!
Ember: Oh yeah? Let's test it!
Ember raises her arms above her head, a fireball starts to form between her hands, growing bigger by the second. When the fireball is bigger then Ember, she throws the fireball at William.
Ember: Reuse Vuurbal!
William, stands there, his eyes go wide, crosses his arms over his chest in a x shape, and lets the fireball hit him. William screams as the fireball burns him, when the fireball vanished William fell to the ground burnt, and unconscious.
Ember: That was for being a jerk to Dite...
Ember falls to her knees exhausted. End Scene.
Start Scene. Rose holds out her glowing green hand, and a tree grows in front of Gunter, who cuts down the tree with his hedge clippers. Rose sends another group of vines, covered in bark, at Gunter, who cuts them with his hedge clippers. Rose sends group after group of vines at Gunter, who just keeps cutting them down, when the last group of vines are cut, Gunter's hedge clippers brake and fall apart.
Gunter: (Shocked) Mmmm, mmmm?
Rose: Your hedge clippers aren't any stronger than normal ones, they're just bigger. They're only able to cut like that because of your own strength. By making them cut through bark nonstop they got worn out and broke.
Gunter stares at his broken hedge clippers, as Rose holds out her glowing green hand.
Rose: Hortus Plectentes Spineam!
The ground shakes, as five big green vines covered in thorns burst through the ground, and shot out toward Gunter, hitting him and knocking him on his back, to the ground. After falling on the ground Gunter is wrapped up by vines. Rose walks up to Gunter, removes his gas mask.

Rose: How do you get there?
Gunter: There is a hatch at the top of the fountain.
End Scene.
Start Scene. Katana is in Gunter's bar, looking around the back room.
Rose: (Telepathically) There is a hatch at the top of the fountain. It leads to where the children are.

Katana runs out of the bar and heads to the stairs leading up to the top level, she runs pass the 'no entry' sign, and runs up the stairs. Arriving at the top of the town Katana can't hear anything but the sound of rushing water, looking around Katana spots a hatch.
Katana runs to it and opens it up, revealing a ladder leading down. Katana heads down the ladder, in a large room, beds lining the walls, each bed has a child laying in it. In the middle of the room is a big glass ball filled with shinning gold energy, tubes on the top of the ball run across the ceiling, and down the walls, stopping over the sleeping children. White energy flows from the children into the tubes.
Katana moves to the middle of the room, draws her sword, and strikes the glass ball, shattering it. The gold energy fades away. The sleeping children begin to wake up, looking around confused, some of them begin to cry. Katana smiles. End Scene.

Mayor Youth: Even without them, I still have enough power to take you.
Mayor Youth, charges at Aphrodite, and prepares to hit her. Aphrodite fist covers in a pink aura, and Aphrodite pulls back her fist.
Aphrodite: Kardiá Grothiá!

Peter walks up to the girls, his son walking with him.
Aphrodite: Hey, Peanut Butter and Jelly's dad!
Peter: It's Peter.
Ember: We know.
Katana: I am glad to see you and your son are reunited.
Peter: (Bowing) Yes, and it is all thanks to you. I wish I could repay you somehow.
Ember: Well, now that you mention it...
Aphrodite: We were happy to help, no repayment needed.
Rose: What happened to those involved? The Mayor, Officer William, and Gunter?
Peter: The rest of the police force arrested them. They are discussing what to do with them, whether to leave them locked up, or just banish them. There was even talk of getting the Angles involved.
Aphrodite: Well what ever they do, those meanies deserve it.
Peter: So, where are you off to now?
Katana: We do not know.
Peter: Well, I know many of us would love to have you stay here
Rose: Sorry, we can't.
Ember: Yeah, there is something we need to find.
Peter: Oh, what is it?
Aphrodite: I don't remember. All I know is I have to find it, and I'll know it when I see it.
Peter: Fair enough. Good luck. Please if you are ever in the area, feel free to stop by. I will always have a room open for you girls.
Peter and his son, wave to the girls as they walk away.
Narrator: And with that Aphrodite and her girls leave Fountain Town, now safe and lively with the sound of children and head to the next adventure.
Chapter notes:
This is the end of my first story arc, and I had a lot of fun writing it. I really liked this arc so there wasn't much that got changed just mostly re-formatting and some dialog changes. Starting next chapter I'm gonna be doing some more big re-writes so it may take longer to get done.
The characters attack names are in different languages, originally they were all in English, but I thought it would be more fun to change it up. Aphrodite's are in Greek, Katana's will be in Japanese, Rose's are in Latin, and Ember's are in Afrikaans. All have used Google to translate so if they're wrong, sorry.
I think that's all for now, there is a lot more I want to say, but I'll worry about it if people actually care about the background process. As always criticism is accepted and encouraged. Please let me know what you thought.436Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXSZGGZKMB
