Paw Patrol X: The Hearts of Truth

New Recruits arc Episode ten: Search for the Jester

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nathan Sharp's cover of the Overlord opening theme played with Charm's eyes opening after a transition of sorts. Flare was then shown jumping up in an open area with the sky all that was shown as Nathan Sharp is heard singing. "Can someone give me the (Flare punches at the screen with an excited smile) a-answer, (Marshall jumps up and kicks at the screen with a determined smile) to my (Richie jumps up and shoots at the screen with a serious look) que-estion? (Chase jumps up and back-kicks the screen with a serious smile) Where's my (Rocky jumps up and slashes the screen in half with a cocky smile) soul?"

A stream of grass was shown as the words Paw Patrol appeared on the screen from gun shots going though them, followed up by the X being made with two sword slashes as the music continued. The Hearts of Truth then appeared through a blazing flame going across them with the Paw Patrol then shown, leading up to Flare giving a peace sign as the song continued with the lyrics coming back.

Flare back flipped over one of Charm's soldiers and kicked him aside as the song continued. "It's like a virus in my body (Flare spins over to another soldier) while I'm (Flare punches the other soldier, making him fall down) dreaming. (Marshall is seen tripping as he runs off with some sort of package) When I wake up, all that's (Marshall scratches his head and laughs innocently as he looks at the screen with his eyes closed) left of me are bones."

Richie was shown shooting a soldier as the song continued. "I'm in a panic! (Richie kicks the soldier aside) Get out, (Richie shoots at the screen) hurry. (Chase is seen holding a hand mirror up to his butt as he admires it while shaking it) Oh there are mysteries, (Chase sees the screen and puts the mirror away, giving a serious look with a peace sign) and many miseries. (Rocky is seen roundhouse kicking a soldier to the floor) Dead of alive, I'm on the brink (Rocky grabs the soldier's face and farts into it) of self destruction."

Skye was shown to be back flipping over to her jet-pack as the song continued. "As I'm (Skye gives a peace sign after jumping up) roaming, (Skye lands by the jetpack and puts it on) from left to right to (Skye takes off with smoke covering the screen, with Zuma then seen surfboarding) An invitation, (Zuma gives a peace sign to the audience) to come disappear . (Snow comes onto the screen as she moves her hair back, seeming to have a cold persona) We're dancing one, two, three steps (Snow sees the screen and punches it out of frustration) on this dark stage."

Charm was then seen standing on a building with a sadistic and charismatic smile as he seemed to be saying something that couldn't be heard over the song. "Raise your flag, march and fight. Break your mask and show some pride! (The camera pans to behind Charm with the destruction of a city being shown) While this war just sends a shiver down my crooked spine. (Charm puts his arms out on their perspective sides) Wars and swords, tears and blood. Feel my heart begin to race. (Charm is seen laughing maniacally) As I laugh through this bloodbath we've made!" Charm clenches both of his fists as he tucks his paws onto his chest, glaring with a sadistic smile and crimson red glare.

Charm was shown to be fighting off Rocky in some sort of science office as Charm blocked his punches and kicks with ease. "Can someone give me the (Charm kicks Rocky back with Rocky holding his stomach in pain) a-answer, to my (Chase kicks open a vent and slides down it as Charm continues working on a computer of sorts) que-estion? (Charm grabs Chase's arm when he attempts to punch him and crushes it, filling Rocky with grief as he watches) Where's my soul? Where's my heart? (Charm roundhouse kicks Chase back at full force) Am I losing my own self?"

Rocky was shown looking at his sword in some sort of bus, seeming to be on edge about how the mission went. "Don't you hesitate, go this way-ay-ay. (Flare looks over at Rocky, seeing that he's feeling down about something) I don't know. And I don't care. (Flare puts his paw on Rocky's shoulder to comfort him with a smile) Tell me, are you not entertained now?"

Richie was shown to be punching at something with high speeds. "I'll just keep (Charm is shown to be blocking Richie's punches) surviving, (Richie aims one last punch at Charm, who dodges it, making Richie punch a wall) I just cannot hide it all. (Richie turns around and aims a kick at Charm, who blocks it and aims a punch at him) I am not to fall a victim, (Richie clenches his fist with anger) I'll continue living in this, (Richie prepares to aim a punch at Charm) misery driven (Richie aims a punch at Charm, covering up the screen) world!" Flare was shown looking over a cliff as he looks at a destroyed city, looking back on a teenage looking Kishu with a charasmatic yet devilish grin pinning him against a tree with his foot. Flare looked over the cliff with determination as the song ended with Paw Patrol X: The Hearts of Truth being shown above him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zuma was by the bay as he prepared to send his submarina up to the shore, activating it to come up to the surface. He was quite excited to use this thing again, since it'd been at least a month since he'd gone out on a mission. Maybe only three weeks, who knows? He was just excited to use it again. Once the sumbarine went up to the surface, he called Ryder and informed him about the ride being ready. "It's all set Wyder. Make sure to have the others hewe in a flash."

"Will do Zuma. Go ahead and wait for us in there while we head out." Ryder hung up and Zuma opened up the submarine, jumping in and diving into it with style and grace. He then closed the hatch and walked over to the living room he had installed, sitting down to watch some Tv.

Zuma kicked the coffee table and caught the remote in his hand, turning the Tv on and watching a show about a red Akita making a wolf look like nothing as they battle. "Yeah Owion! Make Hydwa look like he's worthless!" Zuma continued to watch the episode and gets excited for the big finisher to come on. Just then, the Tv went out and Zuma became bummed out by it, groaning as he then got up to check what it was. "That's the only downside to underwater Tv's. (Walks into the control room) Howwible sewvice."

Zuma tried to get the service working again, only to get a call from Ryder and he answered it. Other than the mission starting, he was hoping Ryder would get him some better service for the four hour ride. It's two hours on jet-ski btw. "We're here Zuma. You can open the hatch for us now."

"Will do Wyder." Zuma opened up the hatch and got back to the controls, trying to get the service back, but to little success. Although he was able to get the Tv working again, the moment he wanted to see was gone, but he wasn't as annoyed as he was before. "Whatevew. I saw that episode a million times anyway." Zuma walked into the room and saw that Marshall was finding it a bit hard to get comfy on his couch, chuckling a bit as he walked up to him. "Yeah, it's a dump. But it's MY dump." Marshall chuckled a bit as well, liking Zuma's chilled out personality.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zuma was driving the submarine as he put on some relaxing music that could fit for the ride to the location. He then started tapping his fingers as he allowed the beat to continue with Flare entering the room and walking up to the chair next to Zuma. The Chocolate Labrador, although he saw this, wasn't all that bothered by it. Actually, he was completely cool with it. He even offered Flare to sit in the chair next to him, which he did, and Flare then questioned how Zuma was so chill. "How are you so chill in a time like this?"

Zuma looked at Flare with confusion as he then went into further detail about what he meant. "I mean, it's not that one can never be calm, I just don't get how someone can be so chill after what just happened today. After witnessing what we just went through and hearing about Richie's betreyal backstory about Trickery, it's astonishing to see someone still able to keep his cool. (Looks out the window) I wish we could all be like that. I just wish i knew how."

Zuma put his paw on Flare's shoulder and smiled with this reply. "Just try not to let it get to you dude. That's what I usually do." Flare tried to do as Zuma suggested but found it harder than it seemed, unable to think of something else to think about at the moment. Zuma chuckled a bit as he got back to driving and had to admit that it wasn't as easy as it looked for newcomers. "Yeah, it's pretty hard to get on the first few go's." Flare sighed and Zuma then pointed to the back room with his eyes closed. "Help yourself to a soda."

"Thanks." Flare said with a smile and nod, and then he walked into the other room and over to the fridge, opening it up and pulling out a cherry soda. When he opened it, he started drinking it and got the taste of blood inside of him. Oddly enough though, he swallowed it. He...liked it. It was almost like his rage had been surrounding him the entire time and he barely noticed. He decided to ignore it though, and just went back to drinking his soda. After all, the last thing he wanted was to become a sulking emo.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Snow was still reading the book about the Hearts of Truth while trying her best to find the most useful information possible. She seemed quite invested in the work, just like she did when she first started reading it. She knew she could never waste any time on this project, and continued sending all kinds of info into her brain to keep it from leaving by the time they got back. She couldn't let anyone else hear her say it out loud though, so she decided to keep it to a minimum. Just then, someone knocked on her door and she flinched.

Snow put the book behind her bed and walked over to the door to find Marshall standing there, offering her some kind of cupcake. "Want one?" Snow didn't exactly get it. Why would Marshall do something nice for her? She hadn't even interacted with him before. That said, she smiled and took the cupcake, nodding in thanks and Marshall nodded with a smile as he then walked off. Snow then closed the door and questioned if what she was doing was right.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richie was cleaning up the kitchen, which had gotten quite messy from Marshall's clumsy baking, but he didn't seem to mind it. Since his mother was always busy, he had plenty of time on his hands to get financial skills out of the way, and he'd done so quite easily with all kinds of dedication. That said, Diana then came into the room and smiled at what her sone was doing, proud that her son had grown to be so mature. Richie could sense her mother's energy and smiled, knowing that her mother was thinking happy thoughts at the moment.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The submarine arrived at the island Richie went on to find that piece of the device they were making and Flare hopped out first. He seemed eager to find Trickery and make him pay for what he did to Katie and her shop. When the others got out, Flare was already on the search, and Marshall chuckled at his determination as he ran on up to him and put a paw on his shoulder. "Go solo much?"

"Beats me, I haven't even started the big stuff yet." Flare continued his search and wondered if Trickery was even on the island, not sensing his energy anywhere. "Well he's obviously not close by." Flare looked at Richie as the others were walking by, wondering if what he was saying was accurate. "You sure he's here Richie?"

"You barely looked." Diana stated, and then Richie started jumping from tree to tree, feeling he shouldn't leave anyone else involved if he and Trickery got into another battle. "Still, we should probably split up into groups so we cover enough ground."

"Already on it Mayor Goodway. It's right here on my PupPad." Ryder showed Diana his PupPad as he started explaining who he wanted to do what. "I'll be heading with Chase in the direction of the tower, since Chase will hopefully have a net strong enough to at least stall Trickery. And while we're doing that, we'll have Skye searching up in the air to see if she can find Trickery from above. I was thinking of having Flare fly with her for that. As for Marshall, Rocky, and Zuma, I figured they could all team up. They'll cover the ground by the water. And Snow said something about researching something; I figured it was important."

Mayor Goodway was quite satisfied with how well Ryder planned this whole thing out. "I knew it was right to let you make this team Ryder. (Pulls out a white headband) I'll look around for any possible minions that might be with Trickery. (Puts on headband) If I see Trickery I'll come back to one of the groups."

"Sounds like a plan to me." Ryder replied, feeling that Mayor Goodway was capable of holding her own in a fight. "Alright everyone, let's do this!" Everyone split up into their own groups and went to the areas they were searching.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marshall, Rocky, and Zuma were by the water as Rocky was standing on the far end to avoid getting wet. He wasn't particularly fond of getting wet, and that was most evident by what he was saying next. "Alright guys, I think we should all make a plan for in case we find Trickery underwater." Marshall and Zuma looked at Rocky to hear him out, only to hear something they would probably expect from him. "I stay up here and do nothing, you two go underwater and get your butts kicked, and then we call it a day."

Marshall and Zuma gave each other blunt looks and then looked back at Rocky as Marshall spoke up. "Rocky, that's completely ridiculous. Even if we were up against normal soldiers, it'd still be logical to go at them with all three of us."

"Well it's also more logical for me not to get wet." Rocky stated in a somewhat brattish and rude tone. "You ever think of that? Huh Marshall?"

"No, but that's because I don't care. Why're you so scared of water anyway?" Rocky flinched and held that part of him back with Marshall and Zuma getting worried. The two looked at each other again and then back at Rocky as Marshall asked him if he was okay. "You alright Rocky?"

Rocky suddenly cut a loud and bassy ten second rotten egg fart with the three's butts all being shown, hitting the audience with a yellow cloud with Marshall's and Zuma's not making a sound (PHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHT). Marshall and Zuma both gagged and wafted the fart away with Rocky laughing at it as Zuma joked about it. "Whoo-ey! Yep. Still as gas powered as ever."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richie was still searching up in the trees as he then saw Charm nearby and he seemed to be speaking to someone. "Yes Trickery, you lost. I can never understand why you're never mad at anything." Richie listened closer to see if he could get any useful information from this conversation, knowing that just about anything could assist him. "Now the next time you meet Richie, I want you to kick his butt and make his friends suffer for all the time they need. Which is all the time they'll live when they all see you again I hope."

Richie took out his guns and kept his energy hidden as Charm was then shown hanging up and groaning with frustration. "Geez. Don't backstab someone if you don't want to kill them later on if they're alive." Charm suddenly got shot in the head by two bullets and Richie then dashed at him and kicked him, firing multiple bullets at him as he got pinned against a tree. He continued firing until Charm's body was entirely covered in bullets.

Charm was shown to apparently be dead with Richie still holding his guns up to make sure he wasn't faking it. He knew that Charm was a master of energy control just like him, and he couldn't risk making any kind of mistakes. That said, Charm's eyes then glowed red as he shot all of the bullets back at Richie, who held up an angelic shield with his palms and blocked all of the bullets without much effort. Charm walked closer to Richie, who but his guns away and walked over to him as the two prepared for their battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chase and Ryder were arriving at the tower to see if Trickery was there with Ryder scanning the area. He didn't seem to find any other icons on the radar, and even if he did, they didn't show enough energy to be anywhere near the amount of Trickery's. Hence why when three minions came out to attack him and Chase, he just kicked them aside casually and continued on with the search. Chase watched the minions fly off and was quite thrilled by what he saw, expecting nothing less from his leader, even if he was under pressure.

Ryder then figured that Trickery's energy wouldn't be sensible because he was a master at hiding his energy, and he looked down at Chase to ask him to do something. "Chase. Take out your see through goggles. I think Trickery might be surpressing his energy."

Chase was looking at himself through a mirror and put his see through goggles on, still admiring himself through the mirror. "The best part about these bad boys is that I can admire myself and do my job at the same time." Ryder rolled his eyes while smiling and although he was still admiring himself, he didn't seem to be able to find Trickery through any of the ground, trees, or even the tower. "I don't think he's here Ryder."

Ryder thought for a moment and figured that Flare and Skye might be having better luck since they're up in the sky. "Maybe Flare and Skye are having better luck. After all, they're flying up high right now, so they'll be able to see everything clearly enough to catch what's going on around all locations."

"Maybe." Chase then went back to admiring himself completely, putting the mirror up to his butt as he then mentioned something else. "Ya know, I always wondered if this suit makes my butt look big."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flare and Skye were up in the sky with Skye flying around and Flare on her back as they looked for Trickery. The sky was a crisp blue with many birds that were full of life, and lots of clouds surrounding the air, along with the ones that were up high among it. Flare seemed to be bored and sighed while he was lying down on Skye's back, even whining out this little whine to see if she saw anything. "Is Trickery there yet?"

"No, not yet." Skye tightened her goggles and looked back at Flare, assuring him they'd find him eventually. "Don't worry Flare. Once we find him we'll kick his butt." Skye suddenly crashed into a tree, making Flare fall off of her back and land on a tree branch. When he got to sitting on it, he caught Skye and let her sit next to him. "Assuming we don't crash into anymore trees." Skye giggled a bit with Flare sensing something and sliding down the tree and Skye followed him with excitement. "Ooh, did you find him?"

"I think so; let's hurry!" Flare and Skye ran at full speed to make sure they didn't lose sight of Trickery, not wanting to let go of any chance of catching him. When the two of them saw a shadow, Flare and Skye both stayed back, knowing they couldn't beat Trickery even if they tag teamed him. Flare then whispered some kind of plan to Skye and said these two words when he was done. "You ready?"

Skye nodded and the two of them snuck up behind Trickery with their energy beind hidden. Trickery was just shuffling a card deck casually with a grin on his face as they continued, knowing they couldn't abandon the mission just yet. When they were just behind Trickery and Flare was ready to knock him out, Trickery threw the deck into the air and grabbed the hankercheif, using it on Skye as he pinned her down. Flare was shaken with fear as Trickery gave him a devilish grin with Skye trying to signal him to run.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richie was blocking Charm's punches and kicks as he then jumped over him when he attempted to low sweep him. Richie attempted to roundhouse kick Charm, only for Charm to elbow him in the stomach and send him towards a tree. He jumped off however, and took out a knife that he used to attempt to slash Charm with. This was quite new to Charm and he chuckled devilishly as he commented on it, never expecting someone like Richie to own a weapon used by criminals. "Well this is a first. When did you acquirre this bad boy?"

"Long story. Same with my guns." Richie attempted to slash down on Charm, only for the Golden Retriever to kick the knife out of his hands. When he jumped up to try and grab the knife to use it himself, Richie shot a bullet into the air to send the knife even higher. This plan failed though, as Charm kicked the bullet aside and grabbed the knife, diving down at Richie right as he did. When he dove down, Richie caught the knife just as Charm almost struck him with it.

Richie was able to get his knife back, but only because Charm let go, and then he aimed a low kick on him, which Richie blocked. This led to Richie holding Charm by his head and holding the knife up to his neck without hesitation. "Call Trickery off, now." Charm looked down at the knife, wondering whether or not Richie was actually being for real. "You can live for the time being if you call the mission off. So do it, if you value your life."

Charm grinned as he then chuckled softly and elbowed Richie with all of his might, making him let go as he said this one word. "No." Charm walked off and looked back at Richie, dissapointed that their battle had to end so soon. As Richie fell to his knees and held his stomach, Charm held out his phone and walked off while still looking back at Richie. "Hey babe. Just kicked Richie's butt; let's go get some burgers." Richie then coughed up some blood, showing that Charm wasn't one to underestimate in any way possible.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flare was so scared that he didn't know what to do, knowing that he had to save Skye, but also knowing it was a life or death risk. Skye was finally able to signal him to run, but he couldn't due to being frozen with fear. When Trickery knocked her out, he kicked him aside and then looked directly at Flare, knowing that the fun was just about to begin. "Perhaps we can have a battle of our own now." Flare backed up a bit, knowing he'd be no match for Trickery. "Don't be scared young Flare. You just might set off during this battle."

Flare clenched his fist with determination, knowing that he'd have to be the one to protect Skye. So he charged at Trickery with a few choice words for him. "And maybe I'll even burn you to death!" Flare aimed a punch at Trickery, only for Trickery to knee him and kick him three times across the body, the last time sending him into a tree. This led to Trickery taking out three cards with Flare sliding down the tree with the cards hitting him right on his back.

Flare got up and took out the cards, running towards trickery and jumping up, attempting to kick him in the face. Trickery was able to grab his foot though, and he went to slam him into the floor, making sure he wouldn't get up so easily. After that, he took out another card before asking a certain question to Flare. "Do tell Flare. Do you actually believe in redemptions?"

Flare found that question quite surprising and he responded with compassion. "Of course. If we held grudges against everyone we'd lose all our friends." Trickery threw the card at Flare's chest and made him start gasping for air, unable to breathe until he finally removed it. When Trickery was shown to be walking away, he got up and charged at him with a demand in mind. "You're coming with me dirtbag!"

Flare attempted to land another punch on Trickery, only for Trickery to look back at him with these two words and a devilish grin. "I refuse." Trickery landed a powerful right hook on Flare and sent him flying and crashing right over to where Skye was. The impact was so strong that it left Flare to only look at Trickery with a defeated look. "I will come with you. But only when you can punch me in the face like that." Trickery laughed devilishly with Flare looking at his paw, wondering if he was strong enough to fight back against the wastes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richie was racing back to where the Paw Patrol was with everyone waiting there as he got back with one final jump. The others saw that he returned and Diana ran up to him after hearing about his battle. "Richie, Ryder told me everything in the text you sent him! Are you okay!?"

"Yeah mom, I'm fine. Nothing too serious on me injury wise." Richie clenched his fist in anger at the fact that he failed to catch Charm. "But I lost Charm." Richie walked past Diana, who always worried for him whenever he was fighting someone on a mission. Richie then went up to Ryder to fill him in on something. "I overhard Charm talking to Trickery on some kind of walkie talkie too. But they didn't say anything worth reporting."

"We're just glad you're okay. Charm's always been a tricky opponent to go up against." Ryder felt that Charm was going to be their biggest threat for quite some time. "I just hope we catch him one day, and I don't care about whether or not it's lethal as long as we succeed."

Marshall noticed that Flare hadn't gotten back yet and started to get worried for him with Chase comforting him. The two of them got even more worried however, when they saw them returning. Flare was carrying Skye on his back and he looked just as defeated as he did before, making them both horrified when they saw him. Flare then handed Skye to Chase as he commented on her status. "She's fine. Just knocked out." Flare walked into the submarine without saying another word, leaving Marshall the most worried out of all.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chase was walking around the lookout as he heard some kind of loud clanging coming from the lookout. He found it odd since Flare was in there, and he ususally wasn't the most rough with his training sessions. He opened up the training room and saw Flare slamming a robot up against the wall, throwing it at three more robots and breaking them all. Flare punched his palm with a vicious smile on his face with five more robots charging at him. Chase was impressed by Flare's power when he destroyed all five robots with one punch.

Flare needed more. He wanted to fight more robots and show his power more. As soon as he got the chance, he set the level up from seven to eight. Chase was more than interested in what Flare was planning as three giant robots suddenly came up and aimed their fists at him. He backflipped out of the way and got their fists stuck before running up them and kicking one of the giant robot's heads off, catching it when it fell down and slamming it into the robot upside down.

The other two robots got their hands unstuck and attempted to punch Flare, only for him to grab their fists and slam them into each other. He then threw them into the floor at full power with Chase then noticing the red glow in his eyes. He didn't know what this meant, but he wanted to find out, so he stuck around. When Flare was done with the robots, he walked off and breathed heavily with his eyes going back to normal. He then saw Chase, who smiled at him as he then looked back at his training session and then back at Chase.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chase was pouring some kind of drink for Flare and took it over to him in hopes he could understand what the Dalmatian was up to. "It's not that level eight is an unnatural level to train at Flare. Heck, Richie's all the way at level eighteen." Flare pounded his fist on the table with Chase asking him about the whole thing. "I saw how aggressive you looked with your eye glow and all. What was that all about?"

"I wish I knew." Flare admitted, indicating that he had no idea what the whole thing was about. "And if I tell you my reasons for training so hard, I want you to promise me that you won't tell anyone. Especially not Marshall; he'd freak!" Chase nodded in understanding, feeling he could keep this promise to Flare no problem. "Okay, so...you remember how no one found Trickery? (Chase nods) Well, me and Skye found him. And we went to attack him, and then Skye got knocked out, and then I fought him, and I got destroyed."

Chase nodded with a serious look on his face, understanding Flare's intentions to protect Skye, but also knowing that he could never beat Trickery in his current state. "Trickery's far beyond any normal dog's league Flare. His power's the kind you never wanna mess with, even if you know you're stronger than him." Chase sighed with confliction. He clearly didn't want to keep this from Marshall, especially considering how close they were. But he promised Flare, so he had to keep it. "Alright. I'll keep it hidden for the time being."

Flare smiled with gratitude, glad he could trust Chase to keep this. "Thanks Chase." Flare took a sip from the drink Chase poured him, getting a strong caramel vibe from it that he was quite fond of. "It tastes like ice cream." Chase chuckled a bit at Flare's response as the Dalmatian pup continued drinking up. Snow was shown to be spying on them however, and he felt this could help her quite a bit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Snow was in her bedroom writing in some kind of diary as she wrote about what she heard Chase and Flare talking about today. "And so, I conclude that Flare's going to end up battling that Kishu again. As if he'd even stand a chance, he probably can't even hold a candle to him. I've seen Trickery in action, and you'd have to try really hard to go up against that. And I mean, REALLY hard. Ah well. Back to the drawing board." Snow closed her diary and opened up a drawer to put it into, making the screen go to black once it closed.

Snow walked over to the window and started thinking about Flare as she looked out of it, wondering if it was really right to have stolen the book from him. As focused as she tried to stay she just couldn't stop thinking about it, and it popped up in every case that it could. If Snow could she'd remove guilt from her right there, but she sadly didn't have the powers to do so. Actually, she didn't have any powers at all. At least not yet anyway, her plan was still in the works.

Snow walked over to some kind of computer that had some multi-colored wires hooked up to it, most likely for extra power. When she opened it up, she saw all the data she'd gotten from the book so far and felt she could get her desires after using it. She could hardly wait. Her heart was beeting, her face was grinning, and she was only going to wait for a second when she got it with a cold toned voice intact. "Don't worry Snow. Just eight more episodes." Snow continued her work as the screen faded to black, ending the episode off.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dragon Ball Super Usubeni cover by Mark de Groot instrumental played during the credits as Flare was shown looking over a cliff with a determined look. Flare closed his eyes as he then thought about how he was going to contribute to the team. The music suddenly got more intense as Flare was then shown fighting off four members of the Waste's, seeming to have fun while doing it as he kicked one right in the face and made him fall back into another. Flare then slammed the heads of the other two in as he then looked into the woods to find Trickery standing there.

Flare and Trickery stood across from each other as the two of them prepared to engage in battle once Trickery threw one of his cards once a male voice was heard singing. "Farewell, (Flare dodges the card and charges at Trickery) beautiful lover. (Flare aims a punch at Trickery, who grabs his paw with little effort) I love you so, (Flare gets indimidated by Trickery's devilish stare) but still I let you go. (Flare gets determined and aims a kick at Trickery's side, which he blocks) Under this pink sky is where we went our (Trickery kicks Flare back) seperate ways."

Flare regained his balance from getting send back and blocked three more cards as the song continued. "I want you to (Trickery dash knees Flare in the stomach) know I love you, (Flare attempts to punch Trickery, who pins him against a tree by his neck before he can do so) so I won't let you go. (Trickery gives a calm but menacing stare into Flare's eyes, terrifying him) I wish I had (Trickery lets go of Flare and walks off with Flare then charging at him) said these words to you, (Trickery turns around) But I have left all these words unspoken."

Flare was shown looking over the cliff again as he stood tall and proud, determined to show himself better than Trickery. "Like pink petals start to fall. From the blossom tree so tall. (Flare catches a pink petal that falls from the tree he's under) And they dance to a, bittersweet, melody." Flare looked at the flower and looked back on some words Trickery said to him, smiling as he looked over the cliff again. As he looked over, the sunset was shown with an illustration as the song ended.
