FU

SION

KA!!

(I thinks that’s how it goes)

What does it mean to fuse? To become one with another person. Physically or mentally? What do people do when the fused though. On the inside? What is it like to be fused? Are you accepted or exiled in society? Charla, Viola, and Scotch soon find out these answers, in a daring and exciting new way.

“Look their waking up.” A voice observed as Scotch opened his eyes slowly to see a girl floating above him. She has lightly curled hair, which is colored blue and purple, tied to the left in both a high ponytail and a low one. She has three twists hanging from her right and her bangs are combed up high to the left. Her eyeshadow is both yellow and faint salmon, while her lipstick is orchid. Skystar's one item of clothing is a strapless top in the colors cream and chartreuse with a print in black of sets of tentacles. Adding to this, she also wears a shoulder belts that goes over her right shoulder and under her left. This belt is made from a lower layer of black fishnet with a blue shine and an upper layer of black sheer.

The earrings are both silver, but mismatched. In her right ear she has a silver pearl stud and her left ear holds up two looped silver chains. Her necklace is made from three silver chains, and around both her wrists are black bands with four looped strings each that reach all the way to the ground. Her tail is encased in a fishnet structure of silver chains, which start off as a black studded thin belt at the top. “Look! He has flesh! It’s so fleshy.” The mermaid gushed touching Scotch’s skin lightly. “WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!” Scotch yelled back up to the headboard of the bed. “How are you out of water?! How are you floating?! Where the hell am I?! Where’s Zayla? And why do you keep touching my skin?!” Scotch yelled.

“I’ve never seen a fleshie before! Avea always said they were weird. But you skin is so fleshy! It’s nothing like my skin.” She touched his skin again. “Sheila! What did we say about touching fleshies skin!” A voice scolded. “Sorry, Avea-san…” She pouted as footsteps that sounded a lot like trotting. The trotting then stop when the voice entered the room. She has pale purple skin, but it is darker on the horse part of her body. She also has feathery wings that fade from black to turquoise, and her blue eyes have bold pink feathers surrounding them. Both her head hair, done in a ponytail, and tail hair are blue. She has horse ears. Her main outfit features a black top hat with red trim. On her hands are black gloves. She has on an outfit that resembles a equestrian's uniform, with blue ruffles along the collar and bottom. Around the waist of the top is a black belt with strands hanging off it. She also has pale purple skull tattoos on her flank.

“Avea Dash. Pleasure to meet you.” Avea introduced as Scotch shook her hand. “Where are we?” Scotch asked. “This is SMILE island. You’re in my house. And the girl touching you skin is Sheila Von Boo. All the people living in this house are fusions. Meaning that we are two species or two people fused into one person. Sheila here is half mermaid and half ghost. She’s a bit of an airhead.” Avea shortly explained as Sheila continued poking his skin. “Sheila!” Avea scolded. “Sorry.” Sheila mumbled. “Hey, by the way who is Zelos?” Avea asked. “Why do you ask?” Scotch asked. “Your cat friend over there’s been saying that name for the past 30 minutes.” Avea answered pointing to Carla who was tossing and turning in her sleep. “I gonna tease her about that later.” Scotch chuckled. “So...um what type of fusion are you?” Scotch asked. “I’m half harpy and half centaur.” Avea answered. Viola then starts waking up. “Damn Parviz doesn't know how to drive.” Viola growled, placing her hand on her forehead.

“Who’s Parviz?” Avea asked. “My brother.” Viola sighed. “He kinda drove of a cliff. Now we have no idea where our friends are at.” Viola added as Sheila poked Viola. “WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT ALL ABOUT?!?!” Viola yelled. “She’s never seen a fleshie before.” Avea answered. “The hell is a fleshie?” Viola asked. “People who aren’t fusions.” Sheila answered. “Z-ze...Zel...Zelos…” Carla mumbled. “I knew deep down she had a thing for him.” Scotch smirked. Suddenly, from another part of the house a loud crash could be heard. “Not again.” Avea groned. “What did he break this time?” Avea asked as her, Sheila, Viola, and Scotch walked into the kitchen to see pots and pans all on the floor piled on top of a person. “Neighthan! Get up. We have guest.” Avea sighed as the person got up from under then pots and pans.

He has grey skin which is more zombie-like on his left half. He has unicorn ears, a blue unicorn horn and blue eyes. He has long black hair in a ponytail with red, blue and yellow streaks and a long tail with streaks of red, blue, and yellow . He wears a rib cage design shirt with the primary colors, one sleeve is red, the other blue. One side of his pants is plain black, the other with a leg muscle design colored with the primary colors. His shoes are yellow with spikes on the toes. “This is Neighthan. Neighthan this is Viola and Scotch.” Avea introduced, Neighthan waved. “Neighthan here is half zombie and half unicorn.” Avea added. “Pleasure to meet you.” Viola smiled shaking Neighthans hand. “Sa-same here.” Neighthan smiled. “So exactly what happened here?” Avea asked sighing. “Well, Bonita and I wanted to see who was faster. Me or her.” Neighthan started. “You know Bonita has wings right?” Sheila asked chasing as butterfly around the kitchen.

“Yeah but, I thought I could be quicker.” Neighthan laughed nervously. “This is why I’m the smart one.” Avea chuckled.

“Where is Bonita anyways?” As soon as Sheila asked that the just mentioned Bonita swooped in. Bonita has pink skin, pink eyes with green pupils, two spindly horns, long platinum blonde, pink and black hair, and a tight sparkly dress. Her main features are two large pink and black moth wings with see-through yellow panes in the holes. Her torso and arms are skeletal while she has moth legs. Her heels have a design similar to her wings. “Did you see how he crashed and burned?” Bonita laughed. “This is Bonita. Half skeleton and half moth.” Neighthan said. “And fastest flyer of our group.” Bonita added. “It’s seems so peaceful on this island.” Scotch observed. “There’s more than what meets the eye.” Avea said taking a sip of her coffee. “What do you mean?” Viola asked.

“Being a fusion isn't all sugar candy and rainbows. This island is actually all fleshies or magi fleshies, people who use magic but aren’t fusions. They barely let us live here, that’s only because this house used to be my mother and father’s. The people on this island hate us. They think we’re nuscences. But honestly we’re not. This entire town used to be filled with fusions. Until, 10 years ago when they ran us out of town. They let us come back because of the margin or territory.” Neighthan sighed as Avea started going thru the mail. She opened one envelope and began reading silently. “Is everything okay Avea-san?” Sheila asked. “Yeah.” Avea answered. Neighthan looked at her, obviously knowing she was lying. Sheila continued chasing the butterfly. “What does it actually say?” Bonita asked. Avea passed Bonita the letter as her and Neighthan read it together. Neighthan then nodded at Avea and ran upstairs.

“What’s going on?” Scotch asked. “For the past 2 years a we’ve been migrating from place to place. Trying to to get caught by the D.A. A friend warned us that they’re on their way here. Meaning that we have to run. Again.” Bonita shortly explained as she grabbed a duffle bag from the cabinet underneath the sink. “What’s the D.A?” Viola asked. “It’s hard to explain what it is. But it’s bad. Neighthan! Do you have it?” Avea asked as Neighthan nodded running down to the first floor with a duffle bag. “We’re running again?” Sheila sighed. “Yeah, I’m sorry. But you were going somewhere safe. I promise.” Bonita answered. “You said that last time.” Sheila mumbled. “I know but this time it’s for real.” Avea smiled as she grabbed two duffle bags that were taped underneath the table and handed one to Sheila. “Wake up Carla.” Neighthan ordered as Scotch went to go wake up Carla. “It that everything?” Avea asked as the 3 other fusions nodded. Socth ran into the kitchen with Carla next to him. “Come on. Let’s go.” Bonita said as they ran out of the house and deeper into the forest.

“AVEA!!!” A voice from far off yelled. “Shit!” Ave growled as shots started to be fired in their direction. Scotch put up a shield block some of the shots. “GET THEM!! I want all 4 fusions down! And take the other 3 teens down with them to.” The voice yelled as more shots go fired. “We’re not safe on ground!” Bonita warned. Avea nodded and put Carla on her back and Viola on her back as Sheila picked up Scotch and Bonita pick up Neighthan. “Don’t think just because you’re in air doesn't mean I can’t get you.” The voice cackled. As the roar of a plane engine was heard in the distance. “Oh course they have an aerial team!” Neighthan groned. Sheila saw one of the fighter jets getting closer. “You won’t get away from me this time fusions!” The voice laughed, Sheila could see the person inside the fighter jet. The person climbed out of the fighter jet and stood on top of it.

“How is that thing still in the air?!” Bonita yelled. “My silly Bonita it’s called autopilot.” The woman chuckled. She was a slender, curvaceous young woman with reddish-brown eyes and dark blue hair framing her face, which is held back with a hairpiece that was a Diamond symbol. She wears a black and gold captain's coat, while underneath her clothes appear quite formal due to her high heels, black leggings, and brown top and skirt. She also wears a large white bow on the front of her collar. “Ain?! I knew they would send you!” Avea growled. “Yep! And you’re about to go down!” Ain then pulled out what seemed to be a large black bazooka with golden embroidery on it. “Which one should I do first. The centaur.” She lined up her bazooka to Ava. “The mermaid.” Ain then moved it towards Sheila. “The moth.” Ain moved it towards Bonita this time. “Or the unicorn.” Ain smirked. “Ini-mini-miny-mo. I know which one is gonna go!” Ain then aimed the bazooka at Viola and pulled the trigger slowly. “Bye-bye.” Ava chuckled as she let go of the trigger.

“Viola!!!” Neighthan yelled as she pushed Viola out of the way of the net ejecting from the bazooka. The net then grew bigger and captured both Neighthan and Viola as they began to fall. “Neighthan!!!” Bonita yelled swooping down to follow them. “BONITA-CHAN!!! NEIGHTHAN-KUN!! VIOLA-CHAN!!!” Sheila yelled. As hard as Bonita tried she couldn’t catch them before they were caught victim of Ain’s grasp. “Ooh look killed two birds with one stone.” Ain smirked. “BONITA!! GO!!” Neighthan yelled. “B-but…” Bonita started. “GO! Now!” Viola yelled. “I’m not leaving!! Not unless you two leave with me!!” Bonita yelled. “We’ll be okay!! I promise!! We’ll get our way back to the meeting point!” Neighthan assured her. “Neighthan...Viola…” Scotch voice was shaky. “GO!” Both Viola and Neighthan yelled. Bonita started crying as she caught up with the rest of the group.

“I’m gonna have so much fun with you two.” Ain smirked as they flew back to the beach port. “I’m sorry I got you caught.” Viola apologize. “It’s not your fault.” Neighthan sighed. “But it is. If I moved then you would've never got caught.” Viola voice saddened. “Look, it’s like I told Bonita. We’re gonna get our way back to the meeting point.” Neighthan assured her, his hand resting on Viola’s cheek. “I guess...I’m just worried that’s all.” Viola sighed. Ain then dropped them both on the boat docks like they were lugged cargo. Ain then got on one knee and bowed her head. “A fusion, as you requested my grace.” Ain said as a voice emitting from the darkness grunted in approval. “I see you brought me an extra. Do what you must. But make sure not to kill them. They need to be alive for the plan to proceed.” The voice said as Ain nodded and by the snap of her fingers a blindfolds appeared on Viola and Neighthan’s face.

After what seemed like hours at sea. Ain took off the blindfolds off Viola and Neighthan. They were in a dark, poorly lit room. “Neighthan?” Viola asked. She tried to get up but her legs and hands were tied. “Looks like I got a good one this time.” Ain smirked lifting up Viola’s head. “You’re Parviz’s sister aren’t you? Well, aren’t we gonna have some fun.” Ain chuckled as she tied rope around Viola’s mouth not allowing her to speak. “You must be so used to being in this position.” Ain laughed as she attached something to Neighthan and Viola’s legs. It was a chain connecting the both of them. “Let’s get started shall we.” Ain then reached into her back pocket and pulled out what seemed to be a cat of 9 tails whip. “MMMPH!!” Viola yelled. She lashed it at Viola who screamed in pain. “VIOLA!!!” Neighthan yelled. “You’re gonna sit there and watch the girl scream in pain and agony. And you can’t do anything about it.” Ain chuckled as she whipped Viola again. “MMPHM!!” Viola started crying. Neighthan could see the pain and suffering in Viola’s eyes.

Even though Viola couldn’t speak, Neighthan could tell she was trying to say utter the words sorry. “MHMPH!! NEIMMPH!!” Viola cried. “Stop it!!” Neighthan yelled. “Can’t you see the pain she’s going thru!!” Neighthan shouted. “Yes, and I’m loving every second of it.” Ain smirked a she pressed a button on the whip’s handel causing steam to emit from the whip. The whip wrapped around Viola’s body. “Burn.” Ain cackled as a sizzling sound emitted from the whip, burning it in Viola’s skin. “MMMPH!!” Viola yelled in agony. “I SAID STOP!! Whatever you’re gonna do to her do it to me! Just please! I’m begging you! Don’t hurt her anymore!” Neighthan begged. “Well, when you put it that way.” Ain’s grin widened. “Let’s turn up the heat!” Ain yelled as she brought out another cat of 9 tails whip and wrapped it around Neighthan’s body, turned it on to the same setting she was using on Viola and watched as they both screamed in agony.

“AGH!!!” Neighthan yelled. He looked into Viola’s eyes to see them filled with fear as she watched Neighthan being burned alive. “MMPHAGHN!!” Viola yelled. “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US!!” Neighthan yelled. “Nothing. I’m setting an example for everyone. This is what happened when you defy the D.A! This entire session is being broadcasted all around the world right now.” Ain cackled. Viola bit on the rope trying to break it. “Dose Viola wanna say something?” Ain asked slyly as she removed the rope from Viola’s mouth. “I’m so sorry Parviz!! I sorry everybody!! If I never got caught by Sugar and told her about the Corp w-we wouldn’t be in this situation!! I’m sorry for dragging everyone into this!! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Please I’m sorry!! I never should of told her anything!! Please! Don’t come looking for me!! I-I liv-live AGH!! My life to th-the fullest! Please!! Let me die!! I-I’m sorry Tequila! I’m sorry Musa! I’m sorry Zayla! I’m sorry Scotch! I’m sorry Felicity! I’m sorry Whiskey! I’m sorry Gin! I’m sorry Alice! I’m sorry Parviz! I’m sorry Bonita! I’m sorry Sheila and Avea! I’m sorry Carla and Zelos and Rebecca! And I’m sorry Neighthan!!” Viola yelled sobbing.

Miles away, Parviz watched in horror. “VIOLA!!!” Parviz yelled. He tried running after her but Rebecca and Zelos held him pack. “She wants us to stay and not look for her! We have to respect her wishes!” Rebecca sobbed. “She’s my sister Becca! I just can’t let her burn like that!” Parviz yelled.

Back with Viola and Neighthan, Ain finally unwrapped the whips from their body. “I had fun. I’ll be back soon my pets.” Ain smirked as she left the room closing the door behind her. “Ne-Neighthan.” Viola groned. “Viola...shh…” Neighthan sighed. “I-I can-can’t fe-feel my bones.” Viola sighed. “Me either.” Neighthan horn started glowing as she hovered it over Viola’s body healing her. “Neighthan…you didn’t have to.” Viola sighed. “Le-let’s get out of here.” Viola smiled as she used the tip of her fingers to untie the rope on her wrist and soon untied the ropes on her feet. She broke the chain connecting the two of them and untied Neighthan. Neighthan slung his arm over Viola’s shoulder. Viola broke the window and jumped out of it with Neighthan. “Hey, look, a rainbow.” Neighthan smiled looking at the beam of light from far away that shot up into the sky.
