The trip from Palermo to Cincinnati:
Rita, Eleonora, Alice, Linea, Irina and Yulia were on the airplane.
Yulia: "Are you happy, Rita? We're all going home! But that doesn't mean our adventures are over, we'll chat by messages and sometimes we can meet together to fight evil again, don't worry, we're going to live great quests!"
Rita was happy she met other people like her, because she thought she were the only one. She knew they were all going to be best friends. She mostly had enemies prior to the encounter with the other Skunk Girls. She finally found someone like her, some new friends that accept her for who she is. Finding new friends is awesome, a delightful feeling. Rita wants to fight evil, she knows her power is strong enough to fight, like a superpower. Rita was a bit sad because she was going home, leaving the adventures for the normal boring life. She likes her normal boring life, it's not that boring, because she has superpowers, she likes making annoying people smell her farts. But that usually means they die. Rita finds it hilarious that people die because of the smell, but she doesn't think about the feelings of that person's friends. She doesn't care about the grief those people get. The group of the Skunk Girls will soon split, and everyone is about to live their own lives. Everything is going to be back to normal very soon.
Rita: "Thank you, everyone, I've spent many good moments with you, and even though we're going home, I'll never forget you, you'll always be in my heart! We've fought so many evil people that I'm satisfied with myself. I want the world to be free from evil people, so if I meet an evil person in Cincinnati, they will suffer the consequences! I'm young, true, but this doesn't mean I'm weak. I'm far from weak, and you all saw it! Though I'm not the only strong one here, you're all strong! Please, promise me you'll never forget me, and that this is not the end of our relationship! I want to meet you again the future! I love you!"
Yulia: "Don't worry, you're going to Cincinnati, I'm going to Kamyshin, Linea is going to Norway... well, you got it, we're all going home, but that doesn't mean I'll never go visit you in Cincinnati, or that you'll never go visit me in Kamyshin, in the meanwhile we can chat by text messages on our phones. But right now you can enjoy this moment with all of us, please take advantage of now, you can chat with us, play with us, do anything you want, you're special! So, what do you want to do? I have some videogames on my pocket console!" *Yulia smiles*
Rita: "Well, I can play videogames with the hands of Gasbot! We can even do video calls with him, Gasbot is great! He'll be my best friend forever!"
Gasbot: "Rita... thank you!"
Rita: "I am the one who should thank you, you have always been on my side, no matter what, and you've always helped me through all my difficulties, I don't know what to say, this is a truly bittersweet moment, but I've felt like this before, it's not anything new. Things like this happen when you're happy, but the reason of your happiness will soon disappear from your life"
Linea: "Okay, so, Rita's going to Cincinnati, and then? Who's going to come home next?"
Yulia: "Well, Rita's going to Cincinnati, and then... Irina's going to Alaska, Alice's going to Nunavut, and Eleonora's going to Greenland. Then, Linea's going to Norway and I'll go to Russia. Rita will be the first one to go home, so we should greet her warmly, we're truly going to miss her!"
They were crossing the Atlantic Ocean, the bridge between Europe and America. It was a bittersweet feeling for Rita, but strangely, she was feeling happy, this experience will add much content to her life, she'll always remember all the things that happened, and of course new things will happen again, her life is surely not finished. Who knows what adventures are they going to live in the future? All these years were awesome for Rita, and even though she risked her life a few times, she doesn't think she can complain that much. Her life is really adventurous, she has fought with the police, talked with criminals, and she wouldn't change her life for a normal and boring one. There's not much to say, all the girls were silent, sometimes chatting for a few minutes, but they were all very tired because of their adventures, they needed some rest, but they'll fight criminals again eventually, because it would be too sad if they didn't. They were warriors fighting for the Earth, against killers, corruption, slavery, negations of the human rights, and many other things. The world will be freed thanks to the Skunk Girls. The good will prevail against the evil, and everyone will be happy. But there's something deep inside Rita's mind that doesn't gladden her, if the world will be happy and good, how can Rita punish someone with her farts? Rita would be bored to hell if that happened, so she was getting worried. The other Skunk Girls would be very happy if all evil disappeared, but Rita was not very convinced.
Rita: "I'll surely miss you! I don't know how I should feel right now, it's a bittersweet feeling, knowing that I probably won't see you again makes me feel sad, but I'm happy I met other girls like me, it makes me feel happy, because I now know I'm not alone, thank you! Will we ever see each other again?"
Yulia: "Sure! Look, it's already December, we've spent many months travelling, even though it feels like only a few days have passed, it was only September when we were in Greenland, remember? We'll see each other again sometime in 2016, I'm pretty sure!"
Rita wanted to see her family again, but she didn't want to leave the Skunk Girls. A lot of questions arose. Why do skunk girls exist? In what are they different? Why are their farts so powerful? Never in the history of mankind farts so stinky have been documented, so why can a girl like Rita exist? What do Rita, Yulia and the other girls have in common? Does this concern Ekaterina? Are there skunk boys? Maybe these questions will find an answer, maybe not. Nevermind, this quest is going to be over soon. As soon as everyone goes home, everything is going to be back to normal. All the girls' lives are going to be uninteresting again, but since technology is already advanced, they can send text messages to each other.
When will Rita see Yulia and the others again? She doesn't want to kill them, she loves them, and wants to fight evil with them. "Sometime in 2016", well, that's enough to keep her hoping.
Rita was listening to A Tribe Called Quest, one of her favourite groups, and still had that bittersweet feeling.
Rita:
I don't know, I may cry
I'm feeling as high as the sky
But down like your feet
Again we will meet?
I don't do martial arts
I'll kill you with my farts
And in the blink of an eye
To life you'll say goodbye
Without you I'm blind
I hope you don't mind
I'm the body, you're the brain
We'll see each other again
Yulia: "Wow, you're very good at singing!"
Rita: "Thank you! I just made the lyrics!"
Rita smiled. She was about to go home, living her relatively shallow life again, without the intense emotions that she had felt with the other girls.
Cincinnati is a good city, but without her friends, Rita will get bored, sure, there is Hannah, Rita's best friend, so maybe she'll not get bored, but why not be all together at once? But that means including Ekaterina, which is "very boring" according to Rita, since her gas is only moderately stinky, and she cannot kill anyone with her farts, furthermore, she's too kind to think about killing someone or something alike.
Rita: "We'll see each other again in July 2016, here in Cincinnati, okay?"
Yulia: "What do you girls think?"
Alice: "Agreed"
Yulia: "Great! Yes, we'll definitely see each other again, just wait and enjoy your life in the meanwhile, you can still chat with us for a few hours, before you'll return to Cincinnati!" (Yulia smiles)
Rita: "I'll be enjoying my life! You know, there is a lot of evil even in my city - laughs - there's no need to travel far away, I'll be doing my best to keep the city safe to all citizens... well, except for bad citizens, those will not be safe at all! Especially their noses - laughs - well', it's their fault, not mine"
Yulia: "Travelling is beautiful, but sad at the same time, if you travel a lot, you won't know what's your home anymore, you'll only have temporary friends, and you'll miss everyone, and everyone will miss you when you leave, maybe it's better to stay home after all"
Rita: "I agree, Cincinnati is my favourite city, I have so many memories there, all of my adventures started there, just like Ekaterina's adventure started in Vladivostok. If you travel a lot, your childhood is ruined because you don't have a safe place to call home, you are perfectly right"
Yulia: "Well, I won't say it's completely ruined, travelling is beautiful, but I think being stationary is better"
Yulia: "we have arrived!"
Rita: "Yay!"
Rita, Yulia, Alice, Linea, Eleonora and Irina went outside the airplane, but what they found was SHOCKING!
Rita: "This... this is not Cincinnati... hey sir! You made a mistake!"
The airplane flew away, living the skunk girls alone in a white frozen wasteland.
Rita: "Where are we? It's so cold!". Rita was about to cry.
Yulia: "Here's a sign!"
The sign read:
Roald Amundsen
December 14, 1911
"So we arrived and
were able to plant our
flag at the geographical
South Pole."
Robert F. Scott
January 17, 1912
"The Pole. Yes, but
under very different
circumstances from
those expected."
Rita: "So, we are at the freaking South Pole? This cold burns my face..."
Yulia: "We are left alone, let's try to go that building! We'll find shelter from the cold!"
A mysterious girl appeared, saying: "Welcome to the South Pole!"
Rita: "Who are you?"
Joie: "My name is Joie, no need to introduce yourself, I already know who you are, Rita"
Rita: "Explain what's happening, or else...!!!"
Joie: "Or else what? You'll fart? Haha!"
Rita: "How do you know me so well?"
Joie: "I hijacked the airplane to meet you all, I know your powers, I also have your same power, but I'm much stronger than all of you, my farts can clear out entire buildings, making people puke, but Rita, you're using this power in a wrong way, killing innocent people, like Brian! Now, it's time to pay you with your own medicine!"
Gasbot: "I WILL NOT LET RITA DIE! I WILL PROTECT HER NO MATTER WHAT!"
Joie: "We'll see"
