"......HI-C!!!!
HI-C!!!!!!!!
HI-C!!!!!!!!!!!
HI-C!!!!!!!"
"Are all those fans...…for me?"
"Who else is on the stage?"
"No one?"
"Hey, Stephanie."
"You got this, Jacklyn. Make us proud."
"Us?"
"Thank you...….Thank you...…thank you all for the love and support. Truly."
"WE LOVE YOUM HI-C."
"And I love you, contestant two hundred eight six."
"Contestant?
What are we racing for, Guardian?"
"You started your own sports? Don't you remember? Finally....a facility where everysingle person can come and compete all on the same level.
'You all walk in with two bags. Your gym bag, and your school bag, but you all walk out with only one. Which?"
"Everybody comes together on the court. This...…..this right here is a safe place. Not only to play...but to train."
"Guardian, no. I don't fight. I only…."
"Would you...…just listen."
"Thers is a lot of people and schools out their that need help. So, are you all ready to take the jump?
….Go in.....convince everyone they are on our side, and help change their woes....to goes."
"Guess I am not staying at One Pearl for too long, am I then?"
"Everybody needs an undercover mole to convert the others.
What they don't realize is that they follow you, not them. You can glue everyone together, Jacklyn; spread hope to everyone; everywhere."
"But why would I hide a facility? I don't want an army. What am I celebrating?"
"Mutants.....and humans.....cannot exist together. One Pearl has shown that they can get along, but here...…they can totally be themselves."
"So....my future is not bleak at all."
"Yes.
I knew that I would never..."
*Errrrrrriiiiaacccchhhh*
"Hi, Ruby?"
".....Jacklyn."
"Wait, what's this?"
"Please, I was wrong. Come back to us."
"Will you lower the Barrier?"
"You can't lower something that has been set."
"Then neither can you move my feet.
You're just jealous that I have been able to bring everyone together and not you.
..When will you realize, 'This life was never about just you, Ruby?
So, if you have no more to say; then I will not continue to be used as your Puppet to draw more Kids. These people just want to be free. Not trained to death."
"Is that what you think of me?"
"Face it. The opportunity was too good to pass up. Just like now.
I saw an opportunity.....and I took it."
"What's to stop me from taking these Kids back? I know you won't fight me."
"I won't fight anybody, and neither will they. All I can say is....Please don't."
"You know, if you wanted to make this Facility invisible, why didn't you?
You've done everything else."
"It was you…..who tampered and broke families apart. I'm just showing that they can be brought back together."
"I...….I...Fine. I'll just make my own. You know I can.
Yeah....I'll just have to resort to building my own empire once again."
"Won't be the same."
"It'll be better then yours. That...…..that I can….
Hey…I can't move. I can't move."
"Wind, take her out of here.
You're disrupting the game...…and ruining my image. I won't talk further."
