Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Young Rider. Enjoy!
Hey everybody! It’s me, Young Rider, back with part two of Smart Lightning’s story. Sorry to keep you waiting — the next one should be here in the upcoming weeks. In case you missed it, here’s part one.
(Continued from Part 1…)
Smart Lightning’s disappearance has had no effect on New Tropican, and nobody has noticed the flash.
Meanwhile, Smart Lightning panics as she reappears in a tree, near a golden fruit.
“Hello?” she calls out, taking in her situation.
Another flash appears above her, making her jump.
A loud voice booms out, “Why have you summoned The Flashing?!”
“Who are you?” Smart Lightning responds.
“I am the controller of The Flashing! The wielder of storms! I AM ZEUS!” Zeus shouts, causing Smart Lightning to step back.
Zeus appears above her, along with three cloaked figures. He whispers what sounds like nonsense.
But the cloaked figures step forward, making Smart Lightning take yet another step back. The figures corner her, and she suddenly begins to glow. She does not realize the change, and starts to maneuver around her enemies. It is not until she starts to run that she sees her glowing legs. She stops and stares in shock.
“Now you see, now you will pay!” Zeus takes the advantage, rushing forward along with the figures.
Smart Lightning seems to be paralyzed with shock, and it is not until she is handcuffed with bonds of light that she regains her senses. She is trapped, and reality sets in as her captors grab her. She stops struggling and lets her captors carry her away…
Meanwhile, Brave Star paces her room with a worried expression on her face. She decides to head out to look for Smart Lightning, bringing an umbrella with her. She asks the people she meets on the way if they have seen her, but nobody has.
She starts to head home, but scorched marks on the path make her pause. They form words: “The friend you seek has left your world, moved on to the land of the rulers.”
Brave Star gasps, remembering her medallion collection. She heads off to a rusty shed, uncovering a worn, yellow blimp…
