Woohoo! I'm actually updating! does another dance
Anyway, thanks to the THREE PEOPLE that reviewed to my first chapter... I feel so ashamed...
Anyway, R&R! And tell me if my first chapter was alright for a first attempt at scary stories, because I've attempted others... but they were so bad I deleted them all, and I hadn't even posted them up:)
Anyway, hugs to all! I'm actually updating! Yay!
Chapter two - Interrogations and Interviews
The Hyper Force woke up, yawning and stretching. Another day, and probably another enemy to fight. But that wasn't the monkeys' first issue - their first issue was Chiro.
The boy woke up, and jumped out of bed. He walked over to the door and tried to go through it, but the way was blocked by five colourful monkeys.
"What are you doing?" Chiro grumbled. "Let me through!" But the monkeys wouldn't move.
"Why were you soaking wet last night?" interrogated Sparx. "Did you wet yourself?"
Chiro was mortified. "NO!" he yelled. "Let me through! I'm thirsty, and I want a drink!"
Antauri stepped forward. "Chiro," he said urgently, "This is urgent! You were attacked last night. Why won't you tell us anything?"
Chiro pushed past the team and stormed off. However, Antauri's greenish ghost claws were out in an instant, and Chiro was dragged back by an invisible force.
"Why were you unconscious last night?" the black monkey demanded. "Why were you wet? Why was there a bucket next to you? Why did you scream?"
Chiro stopped struggling, and sighed heavily. "I... I was getting a bucket of water..." he said, "And when I got into my room I tripped over. I yelled, the water went all over me and I hit my head on the corner of my bed." Chiro looked at the monkeys like they were a bunch of idiots. "There! Unconscious, on the floor. Dilemma solved."
There was silence. Chiro might've been telling the truth, but if he was he wasn't telling the whole truth. And there was something... something niggling in the back of Antauri's mind... it was as if the Power Primate was weakening...
"Chiro," said Antauri quietly, releasing his invisible grip on Chiro an putting his claws away, "Why did you need a bucket of water?"
Chiro glared at Antauri. "Leave me alone!" he yelled, and stormed off.
Silence for a while, before Otto spoke up.
"What's wrong with Chiro?" he asked. "It's as if he's not Chiro!"
Nova stared at Otto. "You mean, he's been possessed?" she asked.
"Yeah..." said Otto, thinking deeply, then nothing more was said.

Later that day in a park in Shuggazoom City, Antauri was wishing he had never come out to investigate who could've attacked Chiro.
At first, Gibson advised Antauri against it. "Don't go, Antauri!" the scientist had told him. "You could cause mass panic, and Chiro has already told us what happened!" But Antauri didn't listen - now he wished he had.
The black monkey had made no progress, and in total had to face six citizens who insisted they tell him their life stories. He was beginning to wish translators had never been invented.
Antauri came across a man with an English accent. "I have just moved here." he told Antauri. "I wouldn't know anything."
But Antauri insisted on his name, like he had done with the others. The English man's name was Mark, and would reveal nothing more.
Antauri sighed. Seventeen citizens interviewed, about 3 million to go. Antauri headed back to the Super Robot with low spirits.
However, little did Antauri know that soon he would find out just what was wrong with Chiro.
------
Three people watched Antauri go - a woman and two men, and all held a two-litre bottle of water. They regarded the black monkey with high suspicions. Then they turned to each other.
"He's gonna find out too much!" muttered the woman.
"Don't fear!" said one of the men calmly. "He'll be taken soon..." He smiled, though it wasn't a nice smile. Then they all took a gulp from their water bottle.
The second man spoke next. "Yes," he said. "The monkey will be taken soon... all we have to do is wait."
Woohoo! Another story to complete! EEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Anyways, review!
