Part 1: A New Evil
Arabella's POV
I woke up from my slumber and climbed out of my bed. I yawned, ruffling my hair and walked into my bathroom. I shut the door and looked in the mirror, I looked like a horrendous mess like every morning I wake up.
I groaned and rubbed my eyes, removing any eye boogers and my vision cleared up. My eyes found my mirror and I saw something different, very different.
I gasped loudly at the sight and grabbed my hair out of shock. All of my hair was completely white and not a strand was brown, just white.
I grabbed my head and stumbled back, falling into the wall and I began to panic.
"Bella! Are you okay, Cookie?!"
"I'm fine, dad!" I called back, "just morning things!"
"Are you sure?!"
A knock was heard on the door and I panicked not knowing what to do and just locked the door.
"Yes! I'm fine!" I assured him and opened the cabinet getting out brown hair dye.
"Alright," he said and I heard him walk away.
I sighed and frantically opened the box of dye and applied some to a strand of my hair. It turned brown and I smiled with relief.
"Thank god," I sighed, before the brown vanished and became white again. "Are you serious?!"
I freaked out and rummaged through the cabinets around me and eventually found a pair of scissors.
"I want this to work, but at the same time I don't want it to," I told myself. "I love my hair."
I stood in front of my mirror and cautiously chomped off a tip of my hair. Nothing happened and I shut my eyes groaning.
"Is this how it's going to go because-ahhh!" I exclaimed, grabbing my burning stomach and fell to the floor, "frick!"
My stomach was giving me unbearable pain and I could barely breath.
I took the piece of hair that I cut and it grew back.
"What is happening to me?" I softly cried in pain and hit the floor in agony, "what's going on with me?"
Third Person POV
Bella sat on the bathroom floor in complete agony and pain. She's confused and scared, not knowing what is happening and doesn't know what to do. What Bella doesn't know is her eyes are glowing a bright green color and her superpower has been affected by the burning sensation she is feeling. She's been infected by something and her power will never be the same again.
——
-Later-
Later that day, Bella was in the Man Cave with Charlotte, Mary, Ray, Jasper, and Schwoz, while Henry was at his house with his family at the moment. Bella's stomach hasn't stopped hurting since this morning and the pain was almost unbearable, but she managed to keep a straight face and not let it affect her physically, no matter how difficult it is. Up in the store, Bella managed to find a wig that was similar to her hair style and popped it onto her hair, which covered all of the white hair. Her eyes turned back to their normal brown color and haven't caused a problem since this morning.
Bella hasn't spoken too much and this really concerned everyone in the room. Bella is always smiling and laughing, but her mood drastically changed since her hair turned white and her stomach started to painfully burn.
Right now, Charlotte and Mary were trying to figure out who kidnapped Rick Twitler, the CEO of Twitflash, as the boys were cooing over the puppy Ray stole from Prince Fuh'ard. Mary was hesitant on helping figure out who kidnapped Rick because that's her ex-husband and isn't comfortable helping him out. She's suspicious about something, she knows something's off. No one, besides Bella, knows that Rick is Mary's ex-husband and she doesn't plan on telling anyone. Mary doesn't want Ray to get upset about it and freak out.
"Do you hear that loud buzzing sound in the background?" Charlotte asks everyone, but only Mary was listening to her. "Well, Mary and I isolated it and ran it through the Man Cave computers and-"
Charlotte got cut off by the boys cooing over the new puppy, Katelyn.
"Hey!" Charlotte yelled and they turned to her and Mary.
"I thought you were supposed to give that puppy to Prince Fuh'ard?" Mary asked her boyfriend.
"Uh-oh, I guess I must've Fu-got!" Ray joked and the boys laughed and Bella didn't crack a smile like she usually would.
"As I was saying, Mary and I used the Man Cave computer to isolate the buzzing and-"
"Man Cave computer? I thought that thing got hacked like a month ago?" Ray asked Charlotte.
"It did, but-"
"Schwoz, I feel like you should know who hacked the computer by now," Ray interrupted Mary, who pretended to strangle his neck from her spot next to Charlotte.
"I feel like you should know-"
"Excuse us!" Charlotte and Mary shouted, gaining everyone's attention and Bella looked up at them.
"Now, as we were saying, Charlotte and I isolated the buzzing sound in the background and you'll never guess what it is?" Mary smiled.
"Bees?" Bella wondered in a soft voice.
"Yeah, bees!"
"Sounds like bees!"
"Yeah!"
"Or you'll guess it right away," Charlotte shrugged and Mary folded her arms.
"Oh! It's probably the bee keeper!" Ray snapped his fingers, "he's usually at the Swellview Honey Factory, I'll go check it out."
"Are you sure you don't want to wait for Henry to go over there?" Charlotte asked her boss as he stood up with Katelyn.
"You're right! Somebody should watch Katelyn while I'm gone!" Ray gasped and Charlotte rolled her eyes as he handed the puppy to Mary.
"Aw!" Mary cooed, "you named her Katelyn! That's my mother's name!"
"I love that name!" Schwoz smiled.
"She is such a Katelyn!" Jasper chirped as Ray popped a gumball into his mouth.
"Katelyn! Look over here, sweetie!" Ray smiled as Mary turned the puppy over to him and he kneeled down. Ray popped the gumball and it transformed him into Captain Man and Katelyn barked. "Don't worry, it's still daddy."
"Bella, triple beep Henry," Ray told his daughter and she nodded, walking over to the monitor. "Tell him to meet me at the Swellview Honey Factory."
Ray kissed Mary goodbye and noticed Bella's mood.
"Talk to Bella for me, I think something's bothering her," he told her and Mary glanced toward the young girl.
"I've tried, she won't talk," Mary replied and Ray sighed.
"Just keep trying," he said and kissed her cheek, before walking up to the tubes. He pressed his belt buckle and a tube encased him. "Up the tube!"
Ray got shot up and Bella contacted Henry.
"Bella," Mary began and Bella didn't turn to her. "Hey."
Charlotte noticed this and tapped Bella's shoulder, "hey, Bells, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, I'm fine," Bella muttered and both girls could see Bella's monotone face.
"You haven't smiled once or made a weird sarcastic comment," Charlotte mentioned and this gained the boys attention. "Talk to us."
Bella shook her head and sent a triple beep to Henry's watch.
"Just tired, that's all," Bella shrugged, but no one was convinced. "Please stop worrying about me."
Bella instinctively grabbed her stomach and Mary noticed this.
"Oh," Mary realized, "I know what this is about."
Bella didn't hear her and Mary pulled Charlotte over to the boys.
"What's wrong with Bella?" Jasper asked with worry.
"Bella's stomach has been acting up for the pass month or two," Mary began. "And she hasn't said anything, except for me forcing it out of her."
"Why hasn't she said anything?" Charlotte asked.
"Bella's independent," Mary remarked. "And doesn't want to worry anyone with her problems, but those stomach pains aren't normal. She told me it feels like a fire has set off inside her."
Schwoz began to think about something and glanced at Bella, "I think I might know what's happening, but I need to conduct some tests on her."
"Bella won't let you," Mary objected.
"What do you think is wrong with her?" Jasper asked Schwoz.
"I've noticed something is wrong with her as well, I can see it," Schwoz told them. "I think her superpower is acting up in some way and it's sending a burning pain into her stomach."
"How can you be sure it's her power?" Charlotte asked him.
"I don't see any other explanation," Schwoz shrugged. "But, I need to do some kind of test to make sure."
"No!" Bella called, before she went up to her room. "No tests!"
"See," Mary said. "Told you."
Schwoz made a face and sighed.
——
Later, Jasper was trying to call Henry because he hadn't return all calls and hasn't left his house. Charlotte and Mary were both investigating the video Rick Twitler sent out and were trying to figure out what's up with it. Bella was still up in her room and hasn't come out since, which worried everyone and Schwoz was thinking about how to test Bella without her knowing.
"Zoom in on his glove," Mary told Charlotte, who zoomed in on the globe and focused on the red and black symbol. Mary's phone rang and she picked it up.
"Is that Henry!?" Jasper asked frantically, "is Henry calling you?! He's not returning my calls or my texts or my Twitflash dms!"
"It's Ray."
"Come on!" Jasper exclaimed.
Mary answered her boyfriend, "hey, honey, what's up?"
Ray was standing outside the honey factory with a frozen yogurt in his hands, "I'm standing outside the honey factory, where's Henry?"
"We don't know, he never answered his Whiz Watch or his phone," Mary remarked.
"Well, I got him a frozen yogurt and I'm standing here like an idiot while it melts!" Ray complained.
"Is Henry with Ray?" Jasper asked Mary.
"No!" Mary sighed, "and his frozen yogurt's melting."
"That's awful," Charlotte commented.
"That's it! I'm going to Henry's house!" Jasper declared, before rushing over to the elevator.
Charlotte took Mary's phone and looked at the monitor, "hey, listen, we've been looking at the hostage video and there's this symbol and we really think something weird is going on with this kidnapping."
Mary nodded and wondered to herself, thinking if Rick is behind all this? What is it's a trick?
Wouldn't be a shock to her, Rick is known to be sneaky.
"For sure, for sure, um..." Ray agreed. "What's uh-what's Katelyn doing?"
Mary sighed and turned to see Schwoz was singing to the puppy.
"And when the moon shines over the Man Cave! I'll be waiting at the elevator door!"
"Uh, she's listening to Schwoz sing her a love song," Mary told Ray.
"What?! Katelyn's my dog!" Ray exclaimed, "I stole her from that Fuh'ard kid, Fuh'air! Fuh-square!"
Mary and Charlotte listened Ray yell over the phone and Mary made a face.
"I'm being replaced by a dog."
"Well, are you surprised?"
"Nope."
——
Not much later, Schwoz got out the bio scanner and snuck up to Bella's room. Charlotte and Mary stayed put as Schwoz went to conduct his test and peeked his head into Bella's room to see her asleep, but he saw something.
He saw her white hair and his eyes widened.
"Oh no," he gasped and Bella shifted in her sleep, groaning.
Schwoz tip toed over to Bella and turned on the scanner, before scanning her body. Schwoz wasn't phased by her blood stream that had green particles inside it, because those particles are what give Bella her superpower.
He stopped at her stomach and saw something within her stomach region.
"What the-" he muttered and he realized what it was. "No, no."
Bella groaned and turned to her side, which caused Schwoz to back away and leave her room.
"Guys!" Schwoz exclaimed and the two girls turned to him, "I think I know what's wrong with Bella!"
"What is it?!" Mary asked him and Charlotte shot up.
"Bella's powers have been infected and it's spreading through out her body," Schwoz explained. "Remember when Ray and Henry went to the other dimension on Halloween to save Mary?"
"Yes?" Mary nodded and Charlotte did too.
"Well, since Ray and Henry touched Bella with the inter dimension bio residue they were covered it, it must've got into her system and intersected with her power," Schwoz explained to the two girls.
"And that's causing her stomach pains?" Charlotte asked and her nodded.
"Yes," Schwoz said, "and it caused her hair to turn completely white."
"What?!" The girls exclaimed.
"And the burning pain Bella is having is..." Schwoz trailed off and Mary grabbed his shoulders.
"Is what?!"
"Is a possible sign that Bella could die if not cured."
"What?!"
The three turned and saw Bella standing there with her white exposed, before she collapsed on the ground.
"Bella!"
The trio rushed over to her.
——
Bella was passed out on the table and Schwoz was conducting a few tests to find out how to cure Bella. Charlotte was still trying to figure out the video by Rick Twitler.
"Can you cure her?" Mary asked Schwoz and he shrugged in agony.
"I'm trying! But, I don't know how to remove the residue from her body, it's inside most of her internal organs," Schwoz sighed and pointed to the X-ray of Bella's body. "The residue is inside Bella's organs, and I can't physically remove it without some sort of surgical procedure. I might have to create an antidote."
"MARY! SCHWOZ!"
The two turned to Charlotte, who had figured out the secret behind the video message.
"What's the problem?! I'm trying to help Bella!" Schwoz groaned.
"Remember when Captain Man and Kid Danger fought that giant guy who talked to a towel?" Charlotte asked them as Schwoz went up to her and Mary stayed with Bella.
"How could I forget?" Schwoz smirked, "but I did forget, what about him?"
"He has the symbol from the hostage video tattooed on his neck and it was on the bottom on the can of flabber gas, " Charlotte explained, motioning to the monitor. A symbol was tattooed on the guy's neck and was also labeled on the bottom of the can of flabber gas.
"Okay..."
Mary looked up and stepped toward them with curiosity.
"And the scientists from Evil Science Corp. had the symbol on their uniform," Charlotte continued, pointing to the symbols on the uniforms of the scientists on the screen.
"What the hecks?" Schwoz asked.
"And when someone stole the world's most poisonous cactus, they left a card with that logo on it," Charlotte informed.
"Oh my god, it was also on every screen in the Man Cave when the computer got hacked!" Schwoz gasped.
"It was?" Mary asked standing up.
"Yes!" He said, "it's like they've been fighting some secret team of bad guys without knowing it."
"Oh no..." Mary and Charlotte say.
"Quick! Do a search of that logo on all the public images available, while I figure out a way to help Bella," Schwoz explained to Charlotte, before rushing over to Bella and Mary.
Charlotte searched up the images of the logo on the internet and let the computer search for the image.
"Schwoz," Mary began and he looked up at her. "Will giving her an antidote help?"
Schwoz didn't know how to respond to her question, "I don't know, but I don't see another option. See, Bella's power is filled with certain toxins which is what gives her the plant based abilities, but if it spreads throughout her body it can cause serious damage to her and then..."
"Kill her?" Charlotte asked with sorrow.
Schwoz didn't respond and just nodded.
"But I thought her power made her immune to diseases and viruses?" Mary asked him.
"Not if it's the chemical from the power," Schwoz explained. "If I can't find way to remove it, she'll die."
Mary and Charlotte became silent for a moment until Charlotte looked at the screen and gasped.
"Oh my god!"
Schwoz and Mary looked at the screen and gasped with her.
"Oh my god!"
"Oh my god!"
Charlotte turned to Schwoz, who made Bella's mouth move.
"Is what Bella would say if she was awake," Schwoz added and the girls rolled their eyes.
"It's sad that you assume my voice sound..."
The three jumped at the sound of Bella's voice and they turned to see she had woken up.
"Bella!" Mary smiled and Bella groaned, laying on the table in pain.
"My stomach hurts!" She cried and Schwoz went up to her with Charlotte behind him.
"Here, take this," Schwoz handed her a pil. "This will relieve some of the pain for a bit."
Bella took the pill and gagged, "ew! It melted on my tongue!"
Charlotte took Bella's hand, "how you feeling?"
"Like I'm on my period, but ten times worse," Bella groaned and curled into her own body.
"Guys, call Ray and tell him to get out of there and tell Henry not to go to the factory!" Mary ordered Charlotte and Schwoz and the two immediately called Ray to warn him, "I should've known it was him. It was Rick all along."
——
Charlotte and Schwoz both called Ray and Henry to warn them about the situation, along with Bella and her situation. Bella's pain had died down a little thanks to the pill she took, but she was weak and a little dizzy in the head. Mary was holding Bella, who was laying lifeless in her arms.
Charlotte and Schwoz frantically warned Ray and Henry on the phone.
"You're in grave danger!"
"It'd a trap Ray! You're walking into a trap!"
"And Bella is dying!" Schwoz continued.
"What?!" Bella exclaimed, almost falling forward but Mary stabilized her.
——
"Why would the guy who invented Twitflash want to destroy Captain Man and Kid Danger?" Charlotte asked and Bella's head shot up.
"I know why!"
"Shush!" Mary covered the dazed girl's mouth.
"Maybe he doesn't want to destroy them-" Schwoz gasped, "he wants to steal Ray and Henry's powers and-" Schwoz gasped aguand looked at Bella. "He also wants to take out Bella by having her own power destroy her!"
"How's he gonna take their powers?" Charlotte asked him.
Schwoz sighed, "oh boy, this is complicated, so I'm gonna explain it to you guys in my American accent."
"Okay."
"Got it!"
"Eh!"
"But I can only do it for so long before I pass out," Schwoz added.
"Hurry!" Mary exclaimed and Schwoz handed Katelyn to Charlotte as he took her spot at the monitor.
"Ray and Henry both got sprayed with flabber gas!" Schwoz began in his American accent, gesturing to a shot of Henry and Ray getting sprayed with flabber gas, "now, you can counteract its affects, but flabber gas never actually leaves your body. And on Halloween, when Ray and Henry went through the portal at the Evil Science Corp to save Mary, they were covered in Inter Dimensional Bio Residue that takes years to wash off your skin."
"The stuff that's affecting Bella?" Charlotte asked and he nodded.
"Yes. And Whistlin' Susie, the old atomic bomb that was delivered to the Man Cave, it dosed Ray and Henry with Gamma Radiation," Schwoz continued and stood up, looking up at a shot of the Diez Leches Ice Cream cake. "And finally, the Diez Leches Cake, the tenth and final Leche is what brings it all together." He pressed a button and all of the chemicals formed together to create Amore. "That's Amore!"
"Love?" Mary asked.
"No! Anti Macro Oxy Ribonucleic Enzymes!" Schwoz explained.
"A.M.O.R.E! That is Amore!" Charlotte smiled.
"That sure is, girls," Schwoz nodded, "that sure is...."
Schwoz passed out on the floor and Charlotte and Mary gasped as Bella flinched.
"Schwoz!"
Bella weakly pointed at Schwoz, "mood."
