Hey! AlwayzHuman here! Lol. Get it? Anyways, I've been debating whether to post this or not. I already have a few chapters for this written but this is also a less than popular fandom in my experience. So all I'm going to say is if I get at least one review, I'll post the next chapter. If no one reviews, I'll just write the story and not post it but I'll still leave this up if anyone does want to read it later on. I'll stop rambling now and let you read. Just a couple warnings though, Characters might be a bit Ooc.
Disclaimer: I will only say this once. If I owned SRMTHFG, the show would not have ended.
Chapter One: Meeting
She ran. She ran for three days without sleep, her long snow colored hair flowing behind her. She couldn't sleep. If she did, she would see the images again and again and she would cause chaos, giving herself away to the hunters that chased her from her village. The ones who destroyed said village. She couldn't allow herself to get captured. Her parents would not have wanted that. Her blue-almost-white eyes landed on a city in the distance. The girl, who was only six, ran to the city on the little energy she had left, hoping that there was enough people out to help her lose her hunters.
She ran. She ran through the city for an hour and a half, losing the hunters, before exhaustion finally took over. She collapsed on the ground in an alley, breathing hard and fighting off sleep. The last thing she saw was what appeared to be a monkey coming towards her. She couldn't fight off the sleep anymore and her crystal blue eyes closed.
The monkey team was going on patrol around the city. They had split up to cover more ground. Antauri was on foot taking a look around the alleys of Shuggazoom, which have been known to have violent gangsters in the past. The black monkey stopped in his tracks when he noticed a six year old girl covered in dirt on the ground. She looked up at him but he could tell she could fully see him before she passed out. He started to hear whimpering coming from the girl and the things around her began to shake. Antauri picked the girl up and took her to a nearby roof to keep her safe from any moving objects. Her whimpering stopped and so did the shaking in the alley when he checked. Five men ran into the alley the small girl was originally in. One wore all white while the others wore black.
"The shaking was coming from here. The little runt must've fallen asleep," the man in white said. "Start looking for the little monster!" Antauri glared at the man. Why would they want to hunt down a little girl that could probably hardly protect herself. He also realized that they must have been the reason she was so tire.
"Mandarin to Antauri. Are you done with patrol?"
"I am but I have a sleeping girl here that might need medical attention," Antauri answered.
"Bring her to the Super Robot and we'll have Gibson check her out," Mandarin ordered.
"On my way." Antauri activated his jetpack and flew to the Super Robot. Gibson was already waiting for him in the med bay. The second in command placed the small girl on the table before walking to his room to meditate. He was about to go deep into his meditation when a crash came. He assumed it was just Nova hitting Sprx into the wall again but that soon changed when Mandarin's voice came through his communicator.
"Antauri, we need help in the med bay!" An unfamiliar female scream could be heard in the background. Antauri rushed to the med bay but was not expecting what he saw. There was a strong wind that was throwing everything around, nearly hitting every monkey in the room. Gibson was knocked out on the floor on the other side of the room. Antauri could tell that all the wind was coming from the girl he had brought into the medbay, who was screaming in her sleep. Antauri made his way to the girl, dodging anything that flew at him. When he finally reached her, he began to try to wake her up. Her eyes fluttered open wide and everything in the air fell to the ground with a crash. The girl quickly sat up and backed away from the black monkey while screaming until she fell of the bed with a thud and a groan. She quickly recovered and ran to a corner to hide. Once in her hiding place, she saw the damage she did to the room while in her sleep. She was shaking from fear, scared of what these strangers might do to her.
"I-I'm s-so sorry!" The girl whimpered. "P-please d-don't hurt m-me." Antauri slowly walked closer to the girl, hands raised as a form of peace. The second in command stopped when she squeaked in fright. Mandarin squinted at the hiding girl, noticing something strange with the girl.
"I can sense the Power Primate running through her," Mandarin said. Antauri nodded, noticing it too. The girl stopped shaking and stared at the monkeys, not expecting them to know about the Power Primate.
"Y-You know of the Power Primate?" The young girl asked, confused.
"She can understand us?" Otto asked, coming out of his hiding spot in the vent. She nodded at the green monkey.
"Mama found that she could manipulate the Power Primate a little so that I won't destroy things in my sleep, but I don't know how to do it. That must be the reason you can sense the Power Primate," she reasoned, still frightened by the cyborg monkeys staring at her.
"What's your name, little one?" Antauri asked the small girl.
"Luna," she answered. Thunder cracked from outside the Super Robot, making Otto jump and hide in the vent again. "Why are you afraid of the clouds?" She asked the green simian. "All you need to do is scare them away." Otto popped his head out to look at her.
"You can do that?" He asked. She nodded but Gibson protested.
"Of course not! It is completely impossible for-"
"I can scare the clouds away! I'll even show you myself! Mama-" Luna choked on her words, remembering her parents and village. She pushed it to the side in favor for showing them what she can do. "Mama said that I was the best at scaring the clouds away." Antauri held a hand out to her. She stared at his hand before staring at the monkey himself.
"Why don't you show us what you mean," Antauri said. She nodded and grabbed his hand as he helped her to her feet. The monkey team followed Antauri and Luna to the tubes and they all headed to the Super Robot's shoulder. Thunder cracked again and Otto went to try to hide again but Luna grabbed him tail.
"Come on," Luna insisted. "You can help me scared the clouds away. It's really easy." Otto was hesitant but followed her out onto the shoulder. "Now, face the clouds and roar at them."
"That's never going to work," Gibson said in a matter-of-fact sort of way. Luna stuck her tongue out at him before refocusing on Otto. Encouraging him to rawr at the sky.
"Rawr?" Otto said. Luna shook her head.
"That was weak," Luna said. "Would you like me to show you?" Otto nodded and Luna backed up. She tilted her head towards the sky and took a deep breath. "RAAAAAAWWRRRRRRRR!" As the sound came from the small girl, the monkey team watched as a shock wave came from the young girl's mouth and floated up to the sky. The wave was enough to part the clouds just a little. When she was done, she began to encourage Otto to do the same thing as her.
"Somehow her voice is able to create a shock wave that forces the clouds to separate from themselves," Gibson said, analyzing the scene before him. No matter how hard Otto tried, he could never create a shock wave like Luna did. However, whenever thunder shook, he would just rawr and the thunder. The two would just laugh at how silly it was before continuing. It was safe to say that Otto no longer feared thunder. And that he had a new playmate. Later, the Hyper Force introduced themselves.
Present day
It had been a year since the Hyper Force and their allies finally defeated Skeleton King once and for all and everything was peaceful. Gibson was in his lab playing with his chemicals again, Otto was tinkering with some device he was making in the command center, Antauri was in his room meditating, and the rest of the gang was playing video games. Chiro, while watching Sprx and Nova play, realized that Antauri hadn't left his room all day and it was already noon. It was then that Gibson had decided to take a break from his chemicals and join the others in the command center. Otto finally finished his tinkering and held a small music box with little dancing monkeys on top. It played a melody that Chiro didn't recognize, distracting his thoughts.
"What song is that, Otto?" Chiro asked.
"It's called 'So Close' and it's a slow dance kind of song. I remember Antauri and Little Moon dancing to this song after dinner every night after they found it," Otto said with a soft smile, remembering the dance. "She always did love songs from other planets."
"Today would have been her birthday," Nova said, a sad look on her face as she paused the game. Otto nodded, looking back at the music box with a sad expression.
"The little chicky was the first one to start coming up with our nicknames, wasn't she?" Sprx asked, staring at the controller in his hands. Gibson nodded.
"She and Antauri were so close back then," Gibson mumbled, chuckling as he thought of the name of the song on Otto's music box.
"Um… Who are you guys talking about?" Chiro asked.
"Luna," a voice said behind Chiro. The team turned and saw Antauri walking out of his tube. "They are talking about Luna. She was very little when we first met her but she was more powerful than you would think for a six year old. She was almost as powerful as you, Chiro. We all thought she could be the Chosen One at the time but she, however, did not rely on the Power Primate as much as we do. She was a resident of a village on the outskirts of Shuggazoom and she was humanoid so we were surprised when she was able to understand us. Hunters were after her at the time. Not all of us trusted her when we first met her because she was so small and we had a rocky start," Sprx and Gibson had guilty expressions before Antauri continued. "We ended up nearly killing her because of it. She was so exhausted that we barely got away from her captors before she fell asleep. " Chiro found it interesting that someone else could understand the monkey team before him but also curious as to why they never brought her up before.
"Mandarin even started calling her Little Moon before he was corrupted," Gibson added. Suddenly, there was a knock on the foot of the robot. The team went to the monitor and pulled up a live video feed. They saw two male scientists, both in their lab coats, standing there outside the robot's foot. One was short and stubby with blond hair while the other was tall and thin with red hair. The Hyper force went down to see what they needed.
"Hello, my name is Professor Hiro and this is my associate, Doctor Yoshi," the red headed scientist greeted.
"Hi," Chiro greeted. "I'm Chiro, leader of the Hyper Force, and this is my team. What can we help you with?"
"We have been studying you and your team for a long while now and we think you might be just what we need to get our lab back," Doctor Yoshi said in a less than enthusiastic voice.
"You see," Professor Hiro said, trying to clear it up a bit. "Our lab had some experiments in it, four to be exact. We've had them for many many years but about four and a half years ago the four experiments went rogue. Right before we could make more successful experiments too. Doctor Yoshi and I were the only ones who were able to escape with our lives but now the rogue experiments won't give us the lab back and they keep attacking whomever we send in."
"Quiet dangerous and annoying little trouble makers, if you ask me," Doctor Yoshi grumbled.
"So you just want us to get rid of your experiments?" Gibson asked, a bit sceptical. The two scientists nodded. The monkey team turned to their leader for an answer.
"We don't have to do anything else today. Let's go for it."
"Can we make a stop on the way and get something to eat?" Otto asked. It didn't take long for the Hyper Force to find the lab on the outskirts of the city after they ate. It was a fairly large facility and it looked like it was abandoned for years on the outside. Chiro had a sense of dejavu but couldn't place why. The team carefully made their way into the building through the front entrance. The entrance hall looked like the outside. Old and hasn't been in use for years. They split up and continued their search for two hours and every room they went into was the same. They were currently regrouping at the front entrance.
"Kid, we looked at a little over half of the rooms in this place and no one is here," Sprx said.
"That isn't true Sprx. I sense that they have been watching us the whole time," Antauri said, trying to pinpoint where they might be hiding. He felt that one of the presences were familiar but couldn't place why it was so.
"Then where are they Antauri?" Sprx asked, getting irritated at the fact that they haven't even shown themselves yet.
"Why haven't they attacked us yet?" Otto asked, remembering what the scientists said. Gibson was about to answer when they all fell silent as they heard singing. They couldn't hear the words very well but Chiro could make out the, now, familiar melody.
"Hey, Otto. Isn't that the song from your music box?" Chiro asked. Otto dramatically gasps in shock and surprise.
"It is," Otto answered before the team decided to follow the song, thinking it will lead to the experiments. As they got closer, they were able to identify it as a female voice before they were able to hear the words.
"So close to reaching that happy ending, Almost believing this one's not pretend, And now you're beside me, And look how far we've come."
Antauri stopped in his tracks, and the rest of the team new why.
"So far we are, So close," Antauri quietly sang with. "Oh how could I face the faceless days, If I should lose you now, We're so close to reaching, That famous happy ending, Almost believing this one's not pretend, Let's go on dreaming, For we know we are so close, So close and still so far."
The Hyper Force entered the cafeteria and noticed that it looked like it was used on a daily bases. Half of the lights were out and it was empty of life. The heroes were walking around the room looking for any clues when Chiro saw four small figures behind Antauri by an open doorway. In the darker section of the cafeteria.
"There they are!" Chiro shouted. He tripped backwards because on a fallen chair behind him and ended up cutting his arm on the edge of a broken table. "Ow!"
"Chiro!" The monkey team called as they looked back to him.
"I'm fine," Chiro reassured, slowly getting into a sitting position. The monkey team nodded and turned back to the experiments but two of them were missing now. The monkey team brought out their weapons, ready to attack. One of the remaining figures was about to bring out their weapon and fight but the other stopped them.
"Cease your squirming, boy, or this will hurt more than it should," a female voice said behind the monkey team. They turned around and saw Chiro squirming on the ground with duct tape over his mouth and a light blue cyborg monkey with dark blue eyes over him. She had one of her hands as a drill, much like Gibson's, and was pointed at Chiro's injured arm. The monkey team was about to attack when what she said next made them freeze. "Oh for bloody Pete's sake! Will thou stop thy movement so I can put this micro disease killer on thy injury?!" To say the least, the light blue female monkey was not too happy with the squirming child. Her outburst even made Chiro stop his squirming long enough for her to apply the foam like substance on his arm. Once done, she put her drill away and smiled, now calm. "There. Now was that so bad?" She helped Chiro to his feet and ripped the duct tape, with a wince from Chiro, before turning around and noticing her audience.
"Aquatica!" One of the remaining two figures shouted in a female voice.
"Coming Lulu," the light blue monkey, Aquatica, said. She ran straight for the monkey team, hopped in the air and did a flip in the air before landing beside the other two. Suddenly, the lights that were out came on and the Hyper Force was temporarily blinded by the extra lighting. A purple cyborg monkey with green eyes popped out of the ceiling, trapped in a mess of wires, right next to Chiro's head, surprising the boy. She was giggling like a little school girl as she hung upside down.
"I told you I could fix those silly lights, Evanna!" The purple monkey shouted with glee.
"Great!" Another female voice said. The Hyper Force looked back to the figures and saw that they, too, were cyborg monkeys… Well… One of them was fully metal. There was the one that helped Chiro, of course, but then there were the two that the team wasn't able to see until now. One was a white monkey with light purple stripes and orange eyes but she didn't seem all that happy to see the Hyper Force. The other was a black, fully metal monkey with grey eyes and Chiro had a sense of familiarity with her. "Now how are you going to get down, Evie?" The white monkey, Evanna, asked.
"Um…" The purple monkey, Evie, stared at the wires. "I don't know." Evanna growled but was stopped by the black monkey.
"Aquatica and I will take care of Evie and our guests. You take a nap before you snap," the black monkey said.
"Yes, Lulu," Evanna said, turning towards the door.
"You're all a bunch of girls?" Sprx asked.
"Got a problem with that, Ginger?" Evanna growled out as she turned back towards the Hyper Force. The black female monkey, Lulu, glared at the white one.
"Go," she ordered. Evanna scoffed before storming out. "I apologize for her behavior. Sleep was almost nonexistent here last night. We were continuously being attacked throughout the night." She began to walk towards the Hyper Force but didn't get far before they went into fighting stance again. Lulu stopped and raised one of her hands towards the hanging monkey. A moment later, the wires released Evie and she fell to the floor. The purple monkey landed on her feet and quickly returned to the black monkey's side with another giggle as the light blue female went to Lulu's other side.
"I thought you said they wouldn't try to hurt us," Aquatica said, annoyed that their guests have yet to put their weapons away.
"They won't," the black monkey stated.
"How are you so sure about that?" Sprx asked.
"Simple. I know that you will do everything you can to not fight a friend with your weapons," the black monkey said in a casual manner. "You have nothing to worry about, Sprxy."
"If you know us so well, then you know I hate being called that." Lulu raised an eyebrow at him.
"Yes." Sprx smirked, thinking he had victory. "But you used to let me call you that and pet you." Now everyone was confused. "That can be explained later." Evil began pulling on Lulu's arm.
"They're rude," Evie said when Lulu turned her attention to the purple monkey. "They didn't thank you for leading them to the cafeteria." The Hyper Force stared at the black metal monkey with shock.
"That singing was you?" Chiro asked and she nodded.
"Where did you learn that song?" Antauri asked.
"I looked it up a long time ago. Right now, I'm curious as to what those idiots told you about us," Lulu growled out. Evie and and Aquatica slightly growled as well since they knew who she was talking about.
"Are you referring to the scientists who sent us to contain the rogue experiments?" Gibson asked as he and his friend put their weapons away slowly, seeing as none of the females are currently attacking them. This question made Aquatica angry and she stomped over to Gibson.
"Thee hark hither, clotpole," Aquatica growled out as she stabbed Gibson in the chest with one of her fingers. "We art not rogues. Those gents art the monsters hither. Those gents wish to maketh an army of metal simians so those gents could start a nev'r ending war!" There was complete silence within the room.
"Lulu! She did it again," Evie whined to the black monkey, who just sighed.
"Okay… I didn't really understand most of that but I think she's saying something about a never ending war," Nova said, still a bit confused.
"Art thee talking about the scientists?" Gibson asked in the same way Aquatica talked, shocking everyone. "Wherefore would those gents want to start a war? Those gents told us that thee wast the ones to attack those folk." Aquatica stared at him in shock until Evie brought her out of it.
"Lulu," Evie whined. "It's contagious!"
"Aye. We attacked those folks. Since the four of us wast successful, those gents wanted to maketh more like us. We refuse to allow that to befall," Aquatica answered Gibson, slowly calming down.
"Does anyone know what they are saying?" Otto asked, completely confused.
"She basically told me that the scientists want to make more of these girls so they can start a never ending war," Gibson summed up. "Which means, they are the ones keeping the scientists out of the lab and preventing them from making more." Aquatica waltzed back to her two friends.
"Smart and cute," Aquatica whispered to Evie and Lulu, making Evie giggle and Lulu smirk.
"What was that?" Gibson asked.
"Nothing," the light blue female sang back innocently, making Evie giggle more.
"To add to what the scientists did, we were all originally citizens of Shuggazoom. Well, technically the outskirts of Shuggazoom. The scientists took the whole orphanage to use at experiments. They were trying to transfer our souls from our humanoid bodies to that of a monkey's. They ran out of fresh monkey bodies so they transferred mine into a fully robotic body," Lulu said. The monkey team became worried when they heard about them being taken from the orphanage on the outskirts. Antauri was the only one brave enough to ask and even he was shaking despite his own metal body.
"If I might ask, which orphanage?" Antauri asked, already sensing that he won't like the answer she would give.
"Tagart's Home for Boys and Girls," Lulu said. Horror and fear coursed through Antauri more than the rest of the monkeys, who stared at him to see his reaction.
"That was where we sent her after Mandarin was corrupted, wasn't it?" Nova asked for confirmation.
"You mean that girl you guys were talking about earlier today?" Chiro asked. "Luna, right?" The monkey team nodded. A chuckle could be heard from the girls. Everyone turned to see Aquatica chuckling.
"The scientists didn't tell them the whole truth when they assigned them to find us," Aquatica stated. Lulu nodded in agreement.
"Where are all the other kids?" Otto asked, hoping to have the hope that Luna had made it out of the orphanage before the scientists came.
"The majority of the orphans did not survive. The four of us were the only ones to survive," Lulu explained. "They would grab a new kid every week from the orphanage. Evanna was one of the first to be taken between the four of us. She was the first to be successful. Then they tried to get Aquatica but I stepped in to stop them and ended up getting taken as well."
"You were prepared to be taken, though," Aquatica interrupted. "I remember you had a backpack with you." Luna nodded.
"It had all of the stuff I didn't want to leave without. While at the lab I would continuously try to find a way to help the others escape and would get locked up for days on end. It was during one of the times I was locked up that they got Evie, the youngest out of all of us, and changed her. They had forgotten about me for quite some time before they finally remembered and gave me a robotic body. A few months after my soul was transferred into this body, and after I had gotten used to my new body, the four of us plotted and took over the lab using our new weapons. After we took over the lab we found out that the four of us were the only ones that came from the same village a long time ago."
"What about Luna? Did she at least get out?" Sprx asked. Aquatica shook her head and the monkey team saddened more, especially Antauri. He couldn't seem to focus on anything any more. Even when Chiro would wave one of his hands in front of his face.
"We haven't introduced each other yet," Lulu stated. "How about you guys go first since you're the guests." Chiro stepped forward.
"I'm Chiro, leader of the Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force. This is Antauri, my second in command, and I think you broke him," Chiro said with a wince, making Evie laugh.
"It wasn't that funny, calm down," Aquatica scolded. Evie covered her mouth but a few giggles still made their way out. Lulu nodded for Chiro to continue, which he did as he pointed to each monkey.
"This is Nova, our strongest fighter. Then there is Sprx, the pilot; Gibson, the science and medical officer; and Otto, our chief mechanic," Chiro finished. Lulu stepped forward to introduce her team.
"You've already met my second in command, Evanna, before I sent her off to sleep. They call me Lulu. I am the leader of the Elemental Sisters."
"I came up with the name!" Evie shouted excitedly. Aquatica elbowed her in the ribs. "Oh, yeah. I'm Evie! I like to build stuff! Mostly things that blow up or Super cool vehicles! I'm the mechanic of the group!"
"I'm Aquatica, head of the science and medical division here."
"How about we show you around," Lulu suggested.
