Pillaloha Means Friendship
A/N My new fic, yay! This one's a little angsty but gets happier as it goes on but nothing too bad or dark. I had this idea in my head since yesterday and I like it. It's about my fave experiment feeling a little sad since Gantu went back to the Galatic Armada and left Rueben and Roxy in the old ship but he's feeling alone, like his friend left him but then somebody comes into his life and makes it better and makes him feel himself again and shows him he's not alone and that somebody understands him but an old experiment has broken out of prison and Lilo and the whole ohana have to stop him. I hope my fave reviewers like this.
It was a grey cloudy morning in Kauai but in Gantu's ship, it seemed like a storm was brewing.
In Gantu's room, a certain golden brown experiment was tossing and turning in sleep as memories ran through his mind.
Reuben had been asleep most of the day in Gantu's bed where he felt safe but sad.
Gantu had left a few months ago to rejoin the Galatic Armada and had left the old ship here on Earth but he and Roxy had been living in it.
He still remembered that day.......
It'd been a quiet day in the ship with Roxy playing video games and Reuben making sandwiches and working on an alarm for the ship in case intruders entered when they saw Gantu enter the ship looking very pleased.
"What's going on Dad?" Roxy asked him as a smile crossed his face.
"I've been reinstated to Captain of the Galatic Armada and I'll be leaving soon." he answered her as Reuben dropped the sandwich he was eating.
"Reuben!" Roxy yelled as the golden brown experiment ran into his room and closed the door.
He curled up in a ball upset as Gantu opened the door but sighed as he left an note beside his friend and room mate.....
Roxy sighed drinking coffee as she was watching TV on the ship computer and heard the videophone ring and answered it but was surprised to see her father on the screen.
"Hey Dad what's going on in Turo?" the alien teen asked him.
"Nothing much, just guarding a very powerful prisoner.
How's 625 after I...... left?
I never meant to hurt his feelings like that.
I thought he'd be happy for me." Gantu said on the screen.
"He's..... been quiet and still eating sandwiches but always hangs around Lilo's house but when he comes here, he just stays in here with me.
I know you never meant to hurt him but you guys were close friends.
I mean you guys were friends while working for Hamsterviel but he'll come around, I know it.
He..... just needs another friend to make him happy again." she told him.
"I hope so Roxy.
Everytime I phone here, he hangs up.
I have to go, okay?
I'll ring later." he answered as he hung up.
Roxy then heard the elevator door come down as Rueben walked out with dark rings around his eyes and was clutching something.
It was a stuffed sandwch doll which the experiment had named Mr Sandwich.
It was the only thing that reminded him of Gantu since the former captain had made it for him....
"Morning Rueben.
You had another dream, didn't you?
Want to talk about it?" the alien teen asked him seeing him sit at the table drinking coffee.
"Naga Roxy.
You know what's going on but thanks anyway.
At least you would never leave me kid.
I-I'm going to Lilo's for..... a little while, okay?" he said leaving the ship.
Roxy knew he was hiding his sadness and pain inside.....
Rueben sighed walking through the forest. He'd wanted to tell his true feelings . his sadness and betrayal but he was having trouble and bottled all the pain up but he was hurting more than normal. Besides Gantu leaving, Amore had left him too to work in the Galatic Council as Naia's assistant but had told him that their relationship wouldn't work out and that had hurt him. He pretended he was happy in front of the ohana and Krista but inside he was feeling blue and nothing could help.
But he saw somebody in the forest upset but was shocked. A young Quanta Quaglian teen girl was there crying and upset as her four eyes glowed with green light but the golden brown experiment had pity in his hurting heart for her.
"Pooe kid.
You're hurting just like me." he thought as the girl was surprised to see him there.
"Hey there you okay?
You look familar.
Like Jumba.
I'm Rueben.
Why're you out here?" he asked her seeing her extra arms retract along with her spine and her eyes glowed with green light as rain soaked her shiny black hair and she looked so sad.
"M-My name's Marina.
My pod was activated a few days ago.
I was taken when I was an infant by Hamsterviel because I'm part experiment and Quanta Quaglian but I wouldn't help Leroy so I was put in an experiment pod and sent to Earth but it was activated.
I feel like I know you but I don't know if I have family or people who care about me.
So many humans and aliens here tried to use me but betrayed me.
I feel so alone.
You understand, right Reuben?" the hybrid alien teen asked as Rueben nodded.
"Ih but do you have anywhere to stay?" he asked her.
"Naga.
I don't." she answered as Rueben smiled sadly.
"Come with me.
I know a place where you can stay....... if you want." he told her holding out his hand to her.
She looked nervously at that because so many beings had ised this to make her come with them but somehow this time was different and a good feeling flowed through her.
"I'll come." she said as he returned to the ship.
He hoped Roxy wasn't angry......
