You Got to Believe in Love

Chapter 1: What to do

"But Sir" Gantu pleaded.

"No ButSirs! You are on thin ice Gantu, you have lost all those experiments because you could not control one you can easily defeat?!" Hamsterviel screamed through his little screen.

"But I still have 624." Gantu lifted the capsule with 624 in it. She was not looking anywhere but down with her eyes barley open.

"Aah, yes, 624... She is of no use to me now; she obviously will no longer obey my commands, because you- foolishly let her be turned to good! She can't turn her self evil!"

"We can think of something sir."

"You think you are so smart with your big blubbery head and your being so tall, I aught to crush you into millions of pieces for ever failing me in the first place!!"

"Then should we let 624 go?"

"You insolent little mindless fish face! Don't you realize, if you keep 624, 626 will be heartbroken?" Hamsterviel said

"Yeah, So?" Gantu said confusingly.

"So- 626 will not be himself. He will be easy to defeat and will no longer be an obstacle to me any longer!"

Hamsterviel looked at Gantu as if he had to tell him everything.

"Then I should transport 624 to you, so 626 can't get to her." Gantu talked like he had thought of everything

"Ha- I do not want that pathetic excuse for an experiment around me ever!

"Then what should we do?"

"We-who are you saying of this we-? You figure it out!"

"But-"

The screen blanked out and hamsterviels face was gone. Gantu sat on 625's bean bag chair with 624 beside him in her capsule, still looking down. Just then 625 walked in from his nap.

"I know that look; it's that I just got a verbal beating by a big eared rodent look."

Gantu growled. Then 625 saw 624 in the jar.

"Hey, what's little miss gorgeous doing here; I thought she would be with Kiesterviel by now."

"The little Jerble thought it best for 624 to stay here."

"So you mean hotcakes is staying with us?"

"Yes"

"Well, you aint gonna just leave her in there are ya?"

"No, 624 is going to stay in that giant cage-capsule over there."

Gantu opened the top of the clear, dome-like containment and set 624 inside. She didn't even move a muscle. She just sat, leaning against the edge, with a sad face.

"I'm turning in early; make sure 624 gets something to eat. I don't want to hear any winning while I'm sleeping."

"Sure thing blubber head."

As Gantu left the room, 625 stepped over to the glass and peered in. He saw her sad face.

"Hey Angelcakes." He stopped to see if she had turned her head. Not an inch. So he went closer to where she was sitting.

"So, you want something to eat?"
No response.

"No? Well at least you moved. Just wanted to make sure you were alive-hehe he he he.....and-your not laughing."

625 frowned. He went over and put his hand on the glass, changing his attitude completely.

Listen Angelcakes, I'm sorry ya aint free and off frolicking with your little boyfriend but there aint nothing I can do; besides if he really liked ya, he'd be here by now!"

Angel looked up at him and had a frightened face as a tear flowed from her cheek. She shook her head. "Naga....kachuganaga."

"Yeah whatever, you can believe in that but I don't. I mean, what's my cous' got that I don't. Angel just looked at him as if it were obvious. "What- so I'm not strong or heroic or fast, sure I can't lift 3000 times my own weight, which I'm not going to tell you how much that is, But!-enthusiastically I bet my cous can't make a sandwich as good as me!" 624 giggled.

"Ha- a smile! Finally, I knew you could laugh. So, you still don't want a sandwich?"

Angel knew starving herself wouldn't do any good, even though she wasn't hungry, she nodded.

All right, I'll be right back, if you like my cousin, you'll love my sandwiches!"

With that he walked off. He was determined to make her the best sandwich she had ever had.

As he came out of view, Angels smile disappeared. Then she looked up. A window was convieniently over the top of her head and the top of her 'Home'. Just then she saw a shooting star and she closed her eyes as tears fell from her closed pupils.

"Acoota Chimeeto, egata nomootah, naga te nala, echume teducaaaa-"

Soon after 625 walked in with a plate of sandwiches.

"Okay, I made cheese, ham, pb&J and my favorite, Tuna."

He looked over and saw that she was sleeping. So he set down the sandwiches and pushed a green button on the right side of the glass dome above a red button. He looked at her sleeping face and saw her cheeks were wet from her salty tears. He knelt down and gently slid his hand down the side of her wet face. Then he got up and whispered before he left and shut the dome. "I'm sorry, but I just don't know what to do."

As he walked out Angel barley opened her left eye, and went back to sleep.
