Loonakids: Too Much at Once

I told you I'd see you tomorrow! Well, like I said, this one will be relatively shorter (especially in comparison to the last one) but I still hope you enjoy it! Well, read on, reviews are appreciated...on with the story!

Chapter 1

The gang braced themselves as the car they were in skidded down the road.

Jack tried to keep his calm. "Could you be quiet?! I'm trying to concentrate!"

"Well, I'm sorry if our screams of terror are throwing off your already-horrible turns!" Sarah snapped, holding onto the door bar for dear life.

Jack then noticed her bizarre behavior. "Why are you slamming your foot on the imaginary brake? That doesn't even do anything!"

"YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT?! Call me crazy, but I'd kind of like to see my 17th birthday!"

One more turn—

"THAT'S IT! PULL OVER!" Wendy pushed her son to the side of the road and then out of the driver's seat.

"Hey!" Jack snapped as he got in the back with the other passengers, "How are we supposed to pass the driver's test if we don't practice?"

"Because if you keep 'practicing' we're not gonna live to get to the test in the first place! Kelly, your turn."

Kelly quickly switched seats.

Suddenly, Tech's phone rang. He sighed and answered it. "Hello? Rita? What's the—slow down—you—you're where?! How did you—GAH! Fine, we'll be there in two minutes!" He hung up. "Kelly, take us back to the tower."

"Aunt Rita's at the tower?" Kelly asked as she started up the shuttle.

"Oh, boy," Michael groaned even as they were starting the trip back, "What's she doing now?"

Ten minutes later…

"YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED?!" Tech cried.

Rita was bouncing in giddiness. "Yeah!"

The rest of the gang then came in (minus Wendy) with Nellie and Patrick.

"Where's Wendy?" Tech asked.

"She had to go check on Archer," Daniella explained, "You know, that beagle—"

"YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED?!"

Nellie sighed, folding her arms. "I know, she's making us go backwards in the marriage order from youngest to oldest. You know what that means? If the pattern continues, Patrick's gonna get married before me!"

"Hey!" Patrick snapped.

Tech, however, was still in shock: "YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED?!"

"Yes, I think we have it established," Rita smirked, holding up the hand bearing the engagement ring, "Oh! And he's here! Sebastian!"

The door opened…and nothing happened.

"…Sebastian?"

Someone then came in loaded over with luggage. He quickly dropped it all once he was inside, revealing himself as a coyote male no older than Tech with silvery-brown eyes and fur. He gained his breath, his tail sagging. "None of you could get any of your own luggage?!"

"Oh, right, sorry, buddy." Nellie went over there…and picked up her bathroom bag.

Sebastian just glared. "Ha, ha."

Wendy then started to come down the stairs…and looked into the lobby once before quickly scurrying back up the stairs.

Sophie took notice of this. "Hold on a second." She walked off after her sister.

Daniella then looked at Sebastian. "You know, you look familiar, have we met before?"

"Eh, all coyotes look the same to me," Duck sighed.

Rita glared at him. "This coyote's name is Sebastian Coyote."

"His name is Coyote, too?" Lexi asked.

"I know! It's like fate!"

Sophie heard this from the stairs. "Uh, Tech? Can I talk to you for a minute?"

Tech sighed and walked over to the stairs…then turned back for a second. "YOU'RE GETTING MAR—" Sophie then grabbed him and pulled him off, stopping him in mid-exclamation.

Sophie looked at Wendy once Tech was secured. "Alright, Wend," she whispered, "tell him what you told me."

Wendy looked at Tech. "His name is Sebastian…"

Tech sighed. "We know that already—"

"…Starwing."

"Huh? Why would he lie about his name? And why is it so…" He then got it. "…Anasalan?"

Wendy nodded. "Less than two months after our mom got with our dad, another Warlock in the realm fell for a coyote in Acmetropolis. They had Sebastian, the second coyote to be born in Anasala…then 35 Anasalan years later, we…dated a little."

Tech blinked. "You dated Rita's fiancée? Talk about awkward." Then the wires really clicked. "Wait…he's a Warlock?"

Wendy nodded.

"Well, we've gotta say something—"

"We can't," Sophie corrected, "If she's gonna know, he's gotta be the one to tell her until further notice."

"Guys!" Lexi snapped from the lobby, "Minute's up, we gotta help the in-laws move in for the weekend!"

Tech sighed. "Coming!" He set off to help his siblings and future brother-in-law to their guest rooms.

Later…

Kelly was sneaking down a hall to the old books room where she snuck into her music room.

Once she was in the clear, Ryan came down the hall. "Man, we need more guest rooms, we—" He then noticed something odd in the room he was passing. "Why is that book not as dusty as the others?" He walked over there and fingered the book. Suddenly, the bookcase shifted just enough to let out the noise from the room.

" …don't you know I'm more than enough? You think you need the latest drama queen, making the scene, an airbrushed model on the silver screen, why can't you see?! I'm no average angel, I'm no average… "

"AHA!" Ryan pushed the bookcase open.

Kelly instantly dropped everything.

"You said you couldn't sing!"

"…I never said that!"

"Kelly, this is…what…does Austin know about this?!"

"…no…"

"Mom or Dad?"

"…no…"

"What, have you been zapping this room since your powers came in?"

"…yes…"

Ryan looked at her. "Why?"

Kelly shrugged. "Nice to have a secret place, you know?"

"Not so secret when it's right in the tower."

"Hide it in plain sight. No one goes in this room anymore anyway."

Ryan looked at her again…and smirked.

Kelly took a second…then realized what he was thinking. "No! No, you can't be serious!"

"Come on!" He grabbed her by the arm before she could protest and then dragged her off.

In the living room, Wendy was talking to Sebastian. "What are you doing with my brother-in-law's sister?"

"I didn't know!" Sebastian said, "I was just hanging out after the portals opened and I bumped into her one day. One thing led to another and now this."

Wendy sighed. "You know…it's kind of nice to see you again, but…this is really awkward."

"No kidding."

The others then came in.

"What you guys talking about?" asked Nadine.

"Nothing!" they both instantly answered upon seeing Nellie, Patrick, and Rita (especially Rita) in the room.

Ryan then rushed in, dragging Kelly. "Guys! We've got a Code 617—" Kelly then elbowed him in the gut and rushed off. He quickly grabbed her by the arm and pinned her to the wall by the sleeve with a knife. "—25, degree yellow."

"Kelly's a robot in pajamas?" asked Lucy in confusion.

Ryan quickly pulled out a notepad from his pocket and flipped through it. "Oh. Sorry. 745."

"Kelly's been hiding an exceptional talent with her powers?"

"Alright, where's this code coming from?" Lexi said, taking Ryan's notepad and looking it over.

"We made it up when the team formed," Robert smirked.

Lexi then stopped flipping and put a hand on her hip. "Alright, when are you ever gonna use Code 52013, degree teal?"

Unfortunately, Jack came in at the exact moment that she said the code and had heard nothing else, so instantly set to a reaction to said code: "There's a swarm of alien bees terrorizing Cancun?! I'll get the giant jar of fake mechanical honey!" He started running for the hall, pushing Sarah to the ground on his way.

Wendy, luckily, stopped him halfway there. "There are no bees. Just Kelly hiding an exceptional talent with her powers."

"Well, why didn't you just say it was a 61735?"

"45," Ryan corrected, "35 is an invasion of Godzilla-style mutant alligators."

"FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" Kelly cried as she pried the knife from the wall and freed her sleeve, "ARE ANY OF THESE MADE-UP CODES EVER GONNA PROVE USEFUL?!"

"Have you looked at our luck, Kell?!"

"Mutant alligators? Don't you think that's a bit of a stretch?"

"Hello! Giant video game robots! Am I ringing any bells here?!"

"Can we get back to Kelly already?!" Nellie demanded.

Ryan sighed and took off his watch, tossing it to her. "Play back ten minutes."

Kelly looked at him as Nellie followed his orders. "Really? You're recording everything?"

"Audio only. I didn't think it'd bug anyone under our conditions."

"True."

Nellie just kept listening to the watch with Sophie. "Whoa. This is…whoa."

Sophie looked at her daughter. "Why were you keeping this secret for so long?"

"I just thought I had enough going on already," Kelly sighed.

"Well, on that note, she has a point," Duck pointed out.

"Kelly!" Rita snapped, listening to the song now, "Do you realize one of my work contacts is at a record label and we could've gotten you set up after one performance?!"

Kelly sighed. "Look, I didn't wanna—WHAT?! WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING?!"

"WE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS!"

"Oh, right."

Rita sighed and pulled out her phone. "I'm calling it in."

"Uh, are we sure about this?" Daniella asked, "We've got enough going on this week alone and are we forgetting the whole 'keeping ourselves out of the public eye' thing for our otherwise secret identities?"

"I'm sure we'll find some way to work around it," Kelly said, "Besides, we're already living in a 150-floor tower. I'd hardly call that much 'keeping a low profile.'"

Daniella started to respond—"Point taken."
