Here’s Katherine! Leader of The Star Covers!

This isn’t her main outfit she always wears, this is her main outfit she wears in the 80s series when she and her group travelled to the 1980s. This look is inspired by Duran Durans frontman Simon Le Bon and his look in Arena

Hope you like it!

"I want it to hurt. Bad. I want to lose. I want to get beaten up. I want to hold on until I'm thrown off and everything ends. And you know what? Until that happens, I want to hope again. And I want it to hurt. Because that means it meant something."

The Star Covers Meets The Soul Of The City

Part 5: Truth Be Told

——————————————————————————-

Sara finished up a long interview in the hotel lobby. Compared to the press conference earlier, the conversation was much more pleasant. Sara and the interviewer Ingrid was talking for long periods and they really enjoyed each other’s company. As they wrapped up the conversation, Sara saw Katherine come through the door. Her face told Sara that something happened.

“What happened?” She asked. Katherine showed her the card that Alex slipped into her bag and Sara got serious. “Of course. It’s happening tonight?” She asked again and Katherine nodded solemnly. As if on cue, the rest teleported down to the lobby thanks to Tanya’s teleportation.

“Woah! How did I know I’m back?” Katherine asked, calming down a bit.

“I don’t know. Force of habit I guess.” Tanya answered. Katherine showed them the card and Anna, the most cynical of the group, knew instantly what to say.

“I say we ignore it. I don’t give a flying fuck about this stupid competition and we have a tour to consider.” She remarked bluntly

“But they’ll get the rods if we don’t.” Veena pointed out, worried about the situation. Then they spotted Alex and his group coming into the lobby. They had no other choice “What do we do?” She asked. Katherine still knew she had to fight them alone.

“Come on.” She whispered. The two groups stood face to face with each other and Katherine stood proudly as their leader. “You want to fight us?”

“I guess-“ Alex was cut off by Darien immediately

“Yes we are in case you forgot.” He growled

“Shut up. I’m talking to your leader.” Katherine ordered.

“Ok so the rules are simple. If every teammate on one team gets knocked out, the other team is the winner and will get the rods.” Alex explained and Darien gripped Alex’s shoulder uncomfortably.

“And we can’t wait to murder the rest of your venomous kind. You all make me sick.” He said coldly. The girls looked at him surprised by his statement.

“Look we don’t want to fight you guys so-“ Katherine began but once again, Darien interrupted.

“Well that’s too bad. If you drop out now, we’ll get the rods and you will watch the entire world collapse and burn. And they will see how useless guardians truly are. You wouldn’t want to disappoint them right.” He threatened. He hit Katherine in her weak spot. The pressure of keeping the world safe. Veena understood and got in front of her.

“We’ll get the rods, with or without fighting you.” She promised.

“Suit yourself. If you change your mind, you know the location.” Alex said, turning and leaving. “Let’s go. We’re done here.” He told his group and they trailed behind him. The other girls looked at each other confused and worried

“Did we just do the right thing?” Katherine asked.

“We always find a solution to our problems so hopefully. How about we just chill for a while? Movie night in my room!” She suggested. The others agreed instantly while Katherine had other things on her mind.

“Uh you guys go on ahead. I’m gonna get some McDonald’s. I’ll be back in a few.” She lied, rushing to the lobby doors

“Get me some chicken nuggets!” Sara called out

“No! You want something, you get it yourself!” Katherine teased, giggling when Sara groaned in annoyance. When she got out of the building, she pulled out her card and put the address on her StarPhone to locate it. She soon used her powers and flew off to her destination, never realizing that she was going to be in the toughest position of her life.

——————————————————————————

Night had fallen on the city once again and the time is right for another attack by Alex and his team. They waited patiently outside for the girls to show up but nothing came of them. They were certain that they had given up and knew that they were the winners

“You know what? They’re not coming here. Let’s get in there and show those pathetic creatures we mean business.” Alex decided. The others looked at him satisfied and helped him climb up to the open window on the top floor. He spotted a young woman sitting in her bedroom, talking on the phone not knowing that she was talking about him as he slowly crept into the room.

Meanwhile, Katherine flew through the forest trying to find Carissa’s place. She saw on her StarPhones map that she was getting closer. As she flew through, she was listening to her concert bootlegs. She was listening to Paul Stanley’s stage banter and she was growing more and more weirded out by what she was hearing. She immediately turned it off and stared at her player in disbelief

“Jeezus Paul! Keep your love life to yourself!” She remarked, groaning at the player. However, she knew Veena would appreciate them as she studied his stage banter religiously. She had to keep them and give them to her as a gift. But she had to put those thoughts aside when she spotted Alex climbing into the open window.

“What the hell are they doing?” She asked to herself. She settled down in the forest and prepared herself for combat as this wasn’t going to be an easy fight.

——————————————————————————

“Hello? Yes Officer Berrium. It’s me Drew…. I’m sorry to bother you at this hour but I do believe Alex is here… He and his group are in the finals with The Star Covers now… Could you possibly send your men down here to get him?…. Alright very good. Thank you for your time.” She said. Carissa Drew seems like a kind woman underneath but she had an aggressive personality that can make her seem terrifying. And it looks like that it’s about to come out when she sees Alex standing behind her

“AH! What the hell are you doing here!” She blurted out surprised.

“I only came here for The Crisis Rods. I won’t do anything to you if you just tell me where they are.” Alex answered but Carissa wasn’t convinced

“Just get out of here the same way you came in!” She ordered angrily.

“If you don’t tell me, this will be the end of your days. I’ll literally give you anything you want from me!” He begged but she grabbed the nearest object in her room that could be used as a weapon. She pulled out her umbrella and pointed it at him.

“I’ll teach you for breaking and entering into people’s homes!” She shouted and ran straight towards him. He managed to dodge most of her attacks and he used his cane to dual with her. Katherine slowly snuck in through the door without Darien, George and Patrick noticing and started witnessing the fight as she ran up the stairs. Alex managed to knock the umbrella out of Carissa’s hand and grabbed the desk in the room, ready to attack her with it when Katherine dove in and attacked Alex, pinning him down on the ground

“You changed your mind? Where’s the others?” He asked casually

“It’s just me. They wouldn’t want to be here.” She answered and turned to Carissa. “I’m so sorry for what happened today!” She apologized

“No it’s quite alright young lady.” She assured, picking up the phone once again, but this time to call for the imprisonment of Alex and Katherine.

“Now listen I’m not in the mood to fight right now. I heard some shit from the bootlegs I bought and I feel kinda like crap after discovering this stuff.” She told him.

“I uh…. What?” He asked

“Wait what did I just say? Never mind you need to go!” She ordered. They fought hard on the floor and attacked each other viciously, Katherine sending multiple music blasts at him and Alex dodging each of them before sending a large darkness blast at her. Katherine watched it get launched out the window and looked at him in shock

“You’re a Guardian? Why are you doing this?” She asked, baffled

“Those questions are not important right now!” He brushed off and continued to blast his powers at her, not knowing that Darien, George and Patrick could see the magic flying out the window, giving Darien an idea. As their brawl continues, Alex was getting more desperate and aggressive with her and soon tried to punch her out of the balcony of Carissa’s bedroom but she dodged, letting him fall off the balcony. But as he was about to fall, she grabbed him by the arm and waist and pulled him back, preventing his fall. They stared at each other for a while. He was surprised that she had saved him at the last second and she looked at him with a serious expression.

“Look. You don’t deserve this. Just stop this nonsense.” She begged. Alex looked at his surroundings, spotting the wall next to her and summons a bit of magic

“You’re right. It needs to stop so I will. Now that I won.” He replied grimly, blasting her with magic and grabbing her by the neck and smacking her hard against the wall. She slid down to the floor in pain and slowly started losing consciousness. Alex looked at what he did and started shaking. He was crying but was also laughing at the same time. He was so conflicted with his feelings, unsure of what he was doing and if he deserves this victory. But something was clear, he had won the rods and the competition.

However, he looked at Carissa, slowly crawling away and heard sirens blaring outside the house. He looked around frantically and immediately grabbed his cane and rushed down the stairs and out the front door. He saw his group waiting for him and he was more than happy to see them

“Come on! Let’s go! The police are coming!” He hurried. However, Darien grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled out a glass bottle

“Have fun with them guardian!” He responded, smacking him in the back of the head with it and threw him on the pavement. He laughed at his misery and ran off “Leave him! He’s nothing to us nor after he betrayed us!” He called out to Patrick and George, wondering if they were right to let him do that. Darien then grabbed them and pulled them off with him.

Police cars crowded around the house and two officers climbed out and saw Alex’s unconscious body on the ground. One of them grabbed him by the neck and pulled him up while the other went into the house

“Adrien, make sure the other guardian is alive.” Edward ordered. Adrien nodded and found Katherine’s body and pulled her up and dragged her out, Carissa watching in delight

“Thank you Carissa for giving us the call.” Adrien thanked and she nodded as he brought him down to the police car “Here you go. The minister will be happy to see his lucky winner.” He remarked, both of them climbing into the car and driving off.

No one knows where they have gone….

I think the shock and brutality of the smash cut to Jecki (and Yord) dead in the jungle is meant to jumpscare us out of being too enraptured with Qimir or lulled into the “I’m just a guy who is making soup” routine. He is seducing the audience at the same time as Osha, so lest you forget, here are Jecki and Yord abandoned and covered in flies.
