Ep 13: Reunited
“Help me!” Electro shouted.
Comet jolts awake from her sleep. She thought maybe Shadow had found them. “What’s going on?” she asked.
“There’s a crab on my tail!” he said.
Comet holds in a laugh. She tries to get the crab off his tail. But she came up with an idea. “Just electrocute it.”
He did, but it still held on. So he tried again… and again. It took three tries for it to let go. When it fell to the ground, he poked at it with a stick to see if it was still alive. It was… and it tried to grab onto Comet this time.
Comet threw it back into the water so it wouldn’t annoy them any longer. She also thought it was a better option than just killing it. Both Comet and Electro are big softies when it comes to animals.
“I didn’t want to hurt it,” Electro said. “But I don’t think it would let go if I didn’t.”
Comet smiles. “At least you didn’t kill it.”
Electro nods, but he’s still sad he electrocuted it.
“Comet! Electro!”
They turn to see Zappy running to them.
“Hey, Zappy!” Comet says, but she realizes the others aren’t with her. “Where’s Spider and Galaxy?”
“They’re coming. They’re just talking to each other.”
Spider and Galaxy were in the distance, slowly catching up to them. You could hear them talking.
“Wow, Wave actually did that to her brother?” Spider asked Galaxy.
“Yeah, I was one the first to hear about what happened. It’s also one of the reasons I don’t like Wave.” Galaxy said.
“Aw. I think Wave is nice overall. You both know it was an accident. Maybe just talk to him?”
Galaxy gives an exasperated sigh. “I guess I’ll try.” They both catch up to Zappy. “Hey, Comet and Electro. Anything new?”
“If you count Electro having a crab stuck to his tail, then yes,” Comet joked.
Electro made a face at her.
“I thought I heard something,” Zappy laughed. “I didn’t know you could scream that loud.”
This made Electro turn red.
Zappy notices. “Don’t worry,” she says. “It happens to all of us.”
“He electrocuted it,” Comet says.
“He did?!” Zappy gasps. “Electro, I thought you loved animals!”
“It was Comet’s idea!” he said. “Plus, it was the only way to get it off me.”
Spider chimes in. “Did you guys do something to Zappy? She’s changed a lot.”
“I mean, I might have,” Comet says.
Zappy smiles. She used to be very serious. She didn’t talk a lot and didn’t smile a lot either. When she met Comet, though, everything in her changed. She turned from her serious personality to one that’s more bubbly and cute. She’s not afraid to show it either. “I’m glad I met Comet,” she says. “I never would’ve opened up if it weren’t for her. She’s a great friend.”
Comet grins, flattered by what she said.
“So, what have you two been doing? Making out?” Galaxy teased.
They both hesitate to answer, considering that it was true. They look at each other. Then Electro speaks up.
“Actually,” he starts. “I kissed Comet for the first time.” Then he smiles at her.
“No way!” Zappy exclaims, amazed. “Is that true, Comet?”
“It is,” she answers confidently.
Zappy hugs both Comet and Electro at the same time. “I’m so proud of you both!”
“I think we really do like each other,” Comet says while they’re still embracing. “It did take a while, though. Especially on my end of things.” They finish hugging and Comet continues. “It was a strange way for us to first meet each other, but I like how Electro wanted us to be friends right from the start. Admittedly, I was uncomfortable at first. I just needed to take my time to sort things out. Then comes the moment we expressed ourselves, a moment I won’t forget. I know I was a bit shocked… no, I was frustrated, to know that Electro had told everyone about our little conversation, and I’m sorry about that.”
“And I’m sorry again for telling everyone,” Electro added in.
Comet smiles and continues. “More time passes, leading up to last night when Electro kissed me on the cheek. I wasn’t expecting that at all, but it showed how much he loved me.” She looked at Electro again. “Now it’s time for me to return the favor.” She leans over to Electro. He knows what’s coming next.
She kissed him on the cheek. It was a bit uncomfortable for Comet to kiss Electro in front of others, but she didn’t care.
Zappy starts to get emotional. There are tears in her eyes. Spider wipes them off as they go down her face. “You guys are so sweet,” she sobs.
Galaxy doesn’t do anything but grin at them.
“Do you think we should find Wave and Blizzard?” Electro asks.
“Yeah,” Galaxy agrees. “Wave can’t stay with one person for that long. He needs, like, at least three people around him, otherwise, he feels lonely. I’ve known him long enough to know this. I bet he’ll come to us first.”
What Galaxy said about Wave is true. Wave gets lonely very quickly, especially when he’s only with one other person or by himself.
“Where are they?”
Comet’s startled by this. She looks around her.
“Don’t worry,” Galaxy says. “It’s just Wave. I told you he would try to find us.”
“If I don’t find them, I’m going to cry,” Wave says, desperate.
They also hear Blizzard in the distance too. “Hey, wait for me!”
Wave and Blizzard now appear in everyone’s view, but they don’t shout at them signaling where they are. They thought it would be funny not to tell them. They hide behind a rock where they can’t see them.
Then Wave does start to cry. He lay on the ground, his front paws covering his face. Blizzard tries to comfort him.
Galaxy and Spider quietly laugh at them while Comet, Electro, and Zappy feel bad for them. Comet peeks at them again. Electro and Zappy follow what she does.
At the same time, they shout at them. “Wave! Blizzard! We’re over here!”
Wave instantly turns his head and runs to them. Zappy opens her arms for a hug and he runs into her. They embrace each other.
Wave is still crying. “I missed you guys so much!”
“It wasn’t even a day,” Galaxy muttered to herself.
“And you won’t last another day.”
Everyone turns around, alarmed.
“She found us.”
