Test, Vision, Chosen

It was the day that every kid in Shuggazoom waited for... The day they had dreamed about since they learned about their glorious heroes... The day that Chiro had dreaded. It was his fourteenth birthday, and he knew exactly what that spelled out.

Every time a child turned fourteen, they were taken for testing to see if they could be the next leader of the Monkey Team. No one knew how testing worked... Not even those who had been taken in for testing themselves.

A girl walked into the room. She was only six years older then Chiro, having just turned twently. "Come on, Kiddo. I know you're not really excited for this, but you know that it was coming."

"But sis... What if I get chosen?"

"Then you get chosen. I'm sure that you'll enjoy it if you try." She looked like an older, and female version of Chiro, with sapphire blue eyes and black hair. "Now, come on. Get up and get dressed. They'll be here any minute now." She walked out.

Chiro sighed and did so. He came downstairs, where his sister had made breakfast. He ate, and then there was a knock on the door.

His sister answered it, and someone came in. He looked over and saw that it was a lady with emerald green eyes and chocolate brown hair.

"Chiro, it's time to go," the lady called. "You don't want to be late, do you?"

"I'd rather not go at all," Chiro muttered, standing. He hugged his sister, and followed the woman to the car.

"Don't be like that, Chiro. This is a wonderful opportunity."

Chiro just mentally sighed, and watched the world outside blur as they headed towards the old ruins.

"Sprx! Time to get up! We have someone coming in for testing!" a yellow furred robotic simian called.

Groaning, a red furred robotic monkey got out of bed. He joined the yellow one. "We always have someone coming in for testing. Why can't we just give up already?"

The pink eyed female shook her head. "Because we need a leader Sprx. We can't hold him off forever, and you know it."

"We had a leader, and look how that turned out."

"We can't give up hope just like that Sprx... I know you're still sore about Mandarin. Frankly, we all are. We had really high hopes about him, and then he dashed them all to the ground. But that doesn't mean that you have to give up so easily. I mean... not every human is Mandarin. Mandarin was one of the rotten apples in the tree, but that doesn't mean they're all rotten." she said softly.

"First, you have been spending way too much time with Antauri. Second, if you say so."

The golden monkey shook her head. "Come on. We still have to get Otto up."

Sprx rolled his eyes, but followed his crush down the hall to Otto's tube.

"Otto, come on! We've got another likely candidate!"

A green monkey with black eyes bounced up. "Really?"

"Yeah!"

He grinned, and got up. "Oh, I sure hope he or she ends up as our leader!"

"Me too, Otto. Me too."

The car soon came to a stop in front of the large Robot that housed the Hyper Force. Chiro got out, and followed the woman to the foot, and the door was soon opened by a black furred, green-gold eyed, simian. Soundlessly he led them to a few tubes and was whooshed up to who knew where. The woman followed him, and then Chiro stepped in. He nearly screamed when the ground suddenly pushed him upward, but kept his composure.

He walked into a room with six sphere like chairs. There were five surrounding one in the middle. The five surrounding matched the colors of each of the team, but the one in the center was Chiro's favorite color, orange. At the moment, four of them were occupied and facing the insignia of the Hyper Force... or rather, the black monkey standing in front of it.

The monkey smiled slightly. "Chiro? Do you understand what I am saying?"

Chiro blinked."Y-yeah." 'Huh... I thought no one could understand the monkeys... Oh, don't tell me that this means I'm going to be the leader! Maybe there are more tests... Maybe this isn't the only thing that determines if you can be their leader.'

"Good. Now, do you see that switch over there?" he pointed.

Chiro looked. He saw two switches... One was small, and on the wall. Chiro assumed that one controlled the light. There was another one though... It was rather large for a switch, and mainly white, except the very top of it was a small ball and glowed green.

"Yeah... The bigger one or the little one?" He heard mumbles behind him, but he ignored them.

"The bigger one. I want you to try and pull it, please."

Chiro walked over to it, and pulled it. There was a glowing green light, and something like a gorilla's roar, and then everything went black.

"What did you do to him!" the woman cried.

The black monkey grabbed a piece of paper. Calm yourself. He is merely asleep, and will wake up in a matter of moments. He has passed the test. He will be our leader.

The woman nodded. "Very well. I will take him to get his things when he comes too.

Chiro was in a dark forest, and in front of him was a lab. He did not know who's lab, or what the lab was for, but he only knew that if he didn't go in it, he would miss something very important. Something... incredible. The boy entered the lab, and saw a man, in a purple and red robe. One of his eyes was blue, and the other was red.

He was working on something when a blue monkey hopped up beside him. The man laughed, and said something unintelligible to the monkey. Looking around, Chiro noticed four other monkeys in the room as well. However, time sped up around him. The man opened a portal, checking up on something within. A man came, and they had a short conversation. Something happened, and a hand came out and grabbed the man.

And then, Chiro woke up.

"Chiro, honey, you passed. You're the next leader!" The woman said, a big smile on her face. "Let's get your stuff."

Chiro frowned slightly, but nodded. 'Yeah... I figured that...'

He followed the woman to the car, and once they were there he said, "Look, this was cool and all, but I really don't want to be their leader. I want to stay here with my sister."

"Nonsense. Every kid wants this, and besides, you've been chosen. You can't back out now."

Chiro frowned. "I really don't want this... And what is the use of a leader who doesn't even want to lead?"

"Talk to the team about that, then."

He sighed, and went to his room. He packed up as slowly as he could, trying to get what he knew was his last look at his room. It was mainly covered in Sun Riders merch, but there was also some pictures of him and his sister, and his school stuff, as well as a few other things that he had collected over time. He eventually did get it done, and he bade his sister farewell. Then the woman drove him back to the Robot, where she left him at the door.

Tauria: Whoo! One new story up!

Chiro: Congratulations... Now, what the heck have you done to my character?

Tauria: Um... a little tweaking here and there?

Chiro: -_-

Tauria: -eye roll-

Antauri: -sigh- Please leave a review.
