"And I ain't goin' down without a fight", Bea told us. "Get to work Tanya", another employee said. I jumped at the sound of my real name. I looked at my name tag. It just so happened to be Tanya's. I sighed and walked up the steps. I grabbed a paddle and started to stir the chocolate. We stood there for about 2 minutes, not saying a single thing. Clover, Blade, and Cherry watched. Waiting for something to happen. I lifted my eyes while keeping my head low. She was doing the same, watching me while still stirring. I lifted the paddle out of the chocolate and pushed her with it. She stumbled back and the railing kept her from falling. I tried to hit her again but she blocked it with her paddle.
She tried to hit me and I grabbed her paddle, crushing it with my hand. She hit me again and I fell into the tub of chocolate. Because there wasn't any air in it, I struggled to get out. "C'mon Blitz, get out", Blade shouted. I grabbed onto the edge and pulled myself up. Now I was standing directly in front of Beatrice. I was reaching for her neck when suddenly, I felt something pierce my abdomen. She had stabbed me with the broken paddle. She yanked it out and there was a large gash in my stomach. Blood started gushing out as I fell to the ground. Chlorine started to come from my body in the form of mist.
It was a defense mechanism. "Blitz"! Clover ran up the steps and pushed Bea off the railing. She screamed as she fell to the ground. He got down on his knees and lifted me. "I'll be fine", I wheezed. "I know, but right now you need help". "Where are the others", Cherry asked. "All toxins, exit through the front door", Blade shouted. Freyaj, Marceline, and Lorenzo all came from where they were. We took off the suits and walked out the front door. "What happened", Freyaj panicked. "Beatrice stabbed her". "Where is she now"? "I'll go back and look for her, go get Blitz help", Lorenzo said. They put me in the van and got out the med kit.
I coughed up my own blood and laughed. "Why the hell is this funny to you", Cherry asked, putting an alcohol wipe on the wound. I winced as she cleaned it. "I don't really know", I chuckled. They bandaged it. Clover put a cold towel on my forehead. "It's gonna be okay", he smiled. "I know". Lorenzo rushed in the car. "I couldn't find her, she's gone". "Dammit". Soon everything went black. When I woke up I was on the hotel bed. I turned to Clover and Freyaj sitting next to me. I sighed. "You're awake". "Unfortunately". I sat up and my stomach still hurt. "What's going on with people putting holes in my stomach"? I got up and looked at them. "Have you guys located her"? "No, but we're trying our hardest", Freyaj said.
The door opened and in came Blade. "Hey there", I smiled. "Hey, we found her". "Well where is she"? "She managed to get all the way to New York City". "What! How long have I been out"? "3 days... we were going to tell you", Clover said. "Fuck"! I punched a hole in the wall. "I've been getting weaker and I don't know why"? Freyaj cleared her throat. They were all staring up at my hair. "What the hell are you looking at"? I ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. There were about 3 strands of my hair that had turned black and had a bit of curl. My hair wasn't dead anymore? I walked back out, "What's happening to me"? "I don't know... but I don't think it's good". "Do you think the Chlorine is going away"?
"I OD'd, no it isn't going away. In that case, Freyaj's would too". "Well, we'll talk to my father about it, for now we should focus on getting to Bea". "Clover's right", Marceline walked in. "As long as you aren't completely weak, we should be fine for now". We called the Professor to get a private jet and got to NYC as fast as we could.
