Water: *(a.k.a. Casey) is hit down with an attack from the monster* Come on Chimaera! Was that your best shot? *The monster breathes a hot flame that heads toward her*
Fire: *(a.k.a. Alli) absorbs the attack and smirks* Your puny fire won’t hurt me! *She grabs her chain-belt and whips the monster with fire. She puts the belt back on*
Chimaera: *growls in pain as one of its goat-legs are burnt and it falls to the floor in pain. It somehow recovers and the leg looks like new. It rushes toward Fire and puts its hand up to scratch up her face, but a stream of blue energy hits her and she pulls away in fear as she looks up*
Valhalla: Ah, I see that you remember us.
Niflheim: You have been a pain in our necks since the first moment we saw you. Now, prepare to be destroyed! *He gets in a fighting stance along with Valhalla. Their outfits are identical in every detail but color. They are ninja-type suits: baggy pants and long sleeved shirts—-along with masks that cover their heads and mouth (but not their eyes). Niflheim’s is navy blue and Valhalla’s is white. *
Chimaera: *looks frightened, but then laughs evilly as it slowly disappears into a black hole right behind it*
Niflheim: Damn it! She always gets away!
Valhalla: Well, maybe if you did less talking.
Niflheim: You know what! I have had enough with your attitude lately! *The two argue as the girls gather around each other and talk*
Wind: *(a.k.a. Amah)*Jeez, you would think that they would at least get along since they’re partners and all.
Earth: *(a.k.a. Rami)* Well, maybe if they got along, then they would have a productive team.
Water: *laughs* I know! We get along because when we fight, we never really mean what we say. It’s all fun and games.
The Odin Warriors both look at all the girls with somewhat of contempt.
Niflheim: This is none of your business!
Water: Well, if you didn’t bicker in front of us, then it wouldn’t be.
Valhalla: Now, now Nif, we shouldn’t be arguing with these girls.
Earth: *the ground shakes a bit* Who are you calling girls?
Valhalla: I didn’t mean it that way. *Trying to change the subject* So, I see there’s a new one.
Fire: Yeah, that’s me. The name’s Fire. *She puts out her hand to shake Valhalla’s and he shakes it but immediately pulls it away*
Valhalla: Oh, I see why. *He blows on his glove, which is a bit burnt*
Niflheim: Yeah, nice to know. Well, we gotta get going. *He jumps up and disappears in the trees*
Valhalla: It was nice seeing you ladies again. You too Fire. *He bows and jumps up and disappears in the trees as well*
Water: Jeez Fire, you get all the guys don’t you?
Fire: Only because I always act like one. But it’s nothing. I never plan on having a relationship with a guy, anyways. Those kinds of relationships get weird and complicated and too mushy for me. Friends is where I like ‘em and is where they’re gonna stay.
They all detransform and head back to Casey’s house for some R&R.

Monday, after school, the girls go to watch a scrimmage between their school, and coincidentally Alli’s old school. Some old friends of Alli’s come up to her, she talks with them, but then heads back to Casey and the rest of the girls. They all shout for Titus and Holman, especially since Holman is the star quarterback and Titus the Receiver. The two have a couple of misses, but later in the game they get back on track and eventually win the scrimmage. The girls head over to see the guys as they come out of the gym after taking showers and dressing up.
Alli: Wow! You two were so amazing. That was one of the best games I have ever seen!
Holman: Thanks. *he kind of blushes*
Titus: It was nothing. We could have done better, though.
Holman: Yeah. So, ladies, were we headed off to? No class tomorrow… so what are we gonna do?
Casey: *kind of hangs all over Titus* There’s gonna be a party at my house later tonight. Maybe you guys would like to come over.
Holman: *kind of laughs because of Titus’ face which is full of a bit of disgust at Casey* Yeah, that’d be cool.
