"Brad...Umm...Brad, could you-"

"Oh God, boy," the younger boy was pushed out of his arm chair. Sylvia looked down at him with angry eyes. Bradley shot her an equally angry glare. She groaned with utter frustration, rubbing her temples to avoid the up coming migraine she was about to have. She offered the child a hand, but she merely refused it. "You're going to make yourself deaf at a young age if you listen to music that loud! God, I can even hear it!"

"Why do you care? I thought you hated me." Brad took himself and his iPod back to his arm chair. It had been about an hour or so. The team kept bringing up the question if they were there yet, but every time Sylvia tried to say something, Bradley would blast the music just to annoy the older women.

Antauri attempted to ask again if they were reaching any closer to their destination, but decided to ask something a bit different. He tugged on the hem of her sleeve, making her look down to the spiritual monkey. "If you're gonna ask me something, I suggest we go somewhere else before the brat over there,"-pointing to the brunnette boy not too far from them, who, at the moment, was playing a game on his music device- "decides to get me pissed off again."

The elder primate nodded, knowing Brad would do anything to annoy this women. The two walked over to Gibson's lab, knowing Bradley was banned from ever stepping into here for... reasons Gibson, nor anyone, wanted to think about at the moment. The last thing they needed was for some monster to be created by the young boy. "All right 'Tauri, shoot. What'cha need? If you're gonna ask if were there yet, then-"

"I was going to, but... I had a change of mind." Sylvia looked confused. What else could he want to know. After all, the team, Nikki and Bradley had only know her for a few hours. She asked what he wanted to know. Antauri smiled. "What was Chiro like when he was younger?" Sylvia's eyes softened as she sat down in lotus position.

"Well, where do I start? I guess I'll start with how cute he was..." (1)

Chiro struggled with all his might. The restraints that held him down to the cold, metal table. Not too long ago was the teenager dragged to the general's domain. The evil witch was nowhere to be seen, but the Fallen knew if he let his guard down, she'd come faster than he expected.

What was going to happen to him you may ask? Well, Chiro knew very well what was going to happen, and he wanted the hell out! He thrashed and struggled for a way out; he called for the Power Primate, but even that seemed to abandon him in this time of fear. Chiro wasn't afraid of death- he had looked death in the eyes many times- but...He was...sad...

The team was everything to him: true, they did have their faults and some of them could get on his nerves, but all in all, he loved them dearly. Oh, how he'd miss Otto's hilarious antics. He'd miss the constant bickering of Sprx and Gibson; Nova's sisterly nature she had towards him, but he'd mostly miss Antauri's loving affection- his fatherly gestures.

Being a Fallen gave him no parents, he was created by the King of Heaven- like every other angel there- but Antauri made him feel like he had a father. But, all of that would end; no more fun, no more happy times with the team... Nothing here on Shuggazoom, the place he called home for his entire li-

The large doors of the lab he was being held in opened, and Chiro lashed out even faster than before. The witch laughed, venom dripping in the process. "You've given me quite a run for my money, you little brat," her voice sounded so harsh it caused Chiro to gasp: he'd never heard her speak before. "But, oh well. You're here, so I can get my feed."

A small twing of the Power Primate serged through his body, and he tried with all his might to bring the power out and save himself, but it still wasn't enough. The witch only laughed harder. "Don't even think that silly Power Prim- whatever it's called, can save you now!" she slapped her hands together and began speaking in a strange language.

The Fallen struggled more, making the witch shoot him with a blast of misty, red energy. He yelped, but continued to struggle. The witch rolled her eyes and went back to where she started.

Suddenly, the alarm went off, startling both Chiro and the vile witch. She looked towards the blazing alarm, then to the doorway. "Hmm... Wonder who that could be?"

"The team- ha! You'll never get away with this nuh-" the witch took on look at him. A few moments later, an ear shattering scream was heard throughout the room. (2)

"Wow, so we can trust this good for nothing-"

"Unless you want a death wish, I suggest you SHUT UP!" Sylvia snapped at him, tiring of Bradley's comments. The child pouted, then looked in front to see a bunch of disapproving faces. He looked down, slightly embarrassed and ashamed for still acting childishly towards the ex-soldier- especially at a time like this!

The alarm went off, and the colors on the monkeys and Nikki paled a bit. "Oh crap- they found us so quick!" Nikki exclaimed. She searched around for any signs of butt ugly guards- erm, soldiers (3). From a far distance, she could make out the outline of the soldiers. She warned the team, and they headed east from the upcoming soldiers.

"Is this the way to Chiro?" Antauri asked, hope beginning to fade into his voice. Thankfully, Sylvia nodded, saying it was a short cut to their destination. The team, children, and the grown woman took a sharp turn, everyone besides Sylvia nearly tripping in the procedure.

"C'mon, Bradley, you need a weapon, don't you?" Sylvia said seriously. Brad was a bit shaken by her question, then nodded. "You better now how to use a sword, 'cause that's the closest weapons vault around. The rest of you, go on and help Chiro!"

The monkeys and Nikki nodded, leaving Bradely and Sylvia to stock on some weapons. "Weird, I though hot-stuff hated Brad?"

"Well, desperate times call for desperate measures- even if it mean for them to 'buddy up.'" Nikki put humorously. The team couldn't help but laugh- they needed a laugh so badly. It livened up the moment a bit.

There was a group of soldiers stationed in front of the doorway to Chiro's location. They all bared their weapons- save for Nikki who went into combat position. A female soldier with strawberry blond hair aimed and shot straight for Nova, but the golden warrior dodged before impact. The soldiers from behind her joined in the fight, hungry for the bloodshed which would soon commence.

Gibson and Nikki lashed out on a small handful of the soldiers, managing many knock outs to them and punches in the face (and one occasional kick in private spots for the male soldier, by Nikki (4) ). the two acted like a dynamic duo, while the rest of the team battled individually with the dark-hearted soldiers.

Antauri slashed through a soldier with his swift movements, not having one scratch on his body- strike the one bruise on under his eye from a punch delivered from the female soldier from before. What he didn't see coming was the soldier, raising his sword to slash the monkey's head clean off his neck.

The spiritual monkey saw the attack in advance, and front-flipped away from the sword, and kicked the man in the face various amount of times. The soldier lashed his arm out, blindly, at the monkey. Unfortunately, he successfully slapped the monkey and sent him crashing to the ground. The soldier made his way to the monkey, but screamed as his arm was sliced off.

Antauri looked forward to see Bradley fighting strongly, if not a bit savagely. Sylvia was howling with laughter as she watched the boy fight. She ran up to the monkey and helped him up. "Didn't think he coudl fight- I just thought he was all talk. Looks like I was wrong!" she continued to roar with laughter. Antauri went into fighting position when he saw two soldiers coming their way. Sylvia kept laughing, oblivious to what was coming her way.

The monkey fought of the two, but another soldier came and aimed for Syvlia. She still seemed to take no notice and was punched in the gut. She fell to the ground, and suddenly, her face was a fiery red color. Her face was sort of- no, was very scary- it even startled Antauri a bit. "Oui, look who's decided to save the brat, yet again?!?" the soldier pointed her gun to her head, and put his finger to the tri-

Sylvia kicked his legs, forcing him to tumble over and then picked the man up as if he weighed nothing- which was saying something! The soldier was heavily built, and Sylvia had no signs of muscles anywhere. She spun him around, the flung him towards some of the soldiers fighting near by. "STRIKE!"

Antauri looked at her after he knocked out the two soldiers that previously attacked him. Sylvia gave a quick smile, then her features went back to a serious look. "Go on, me and the rest of them will deal with this weaklings!"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY TRAITOR?!" the soldiers screamed, greatly offended by the woman's comment.

Antauri nodded and went forward into the doorway. It was dark when he stepped in. He looked around and scanned for any life. After a few moments of looking around, he sensed opne. It was weaking, but it was something. He took on step forward, then the doors shut rapidly behind him. He jumped forward.

"Well, well, well, look who came by?" Antauri activated his night vision, and saw a tall figure standing in front of him. Antauri looked hatefully towards the witch.

"Where's Chiro?"
