Babysitters

Radarr and Aerrow were heading to the the main room. Suddenly Radarr's ears stiffened and he started to look suspicious.

"What is it Radarr? You getting something?" asked Aerrow. Radarr started to pull on to Aerrow's arm and point somewhere. "You want me to follow you? Ok, lead the way."

Radarr led Aerrow to the communication room. Aerrow could hear noises coming from the room. He put his index finger infront of his mouth to point out the fact that they should be quiet. He reached for his weapon and jumped infront of the door.

"Waaaah!" jumped Bella as she saw Aerrow in attack mode right infront of her.

"Bella?" said Aerrow as he put away the blades. "What are you doing in here?" he asked sounding somewhat suspicious.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" she said calmly.

"I don't know. But it seems like you're trying to avoid the question." said Aerrow.

"Pffft..." Bella let out a nervous laugh along with the weird sound. "Well, that's just bull. I was just notifying the ones back home I was with you guys." she said.

"You mean your parents?" asked Aerrow.

Bella laughed histerically and loudly, but it ended quick. "Ah, Aerrow you crack me up. I haven't seen my parents for years... or months. I don't know, I lost track after awhile."

Aerrow took a step back after Bella's reaction to a weird situation like that. "Wait a minute who else is there? I thought you ran away."

"That doesn't mean I can't call to check in or something. I mean they'd be worried sick if they didn't know I was ok." said Bella.

"So you were talking to Blister, what did he say?" asked Aerrow.

"I wasn't talking to him." said Bella in her harsh accent.

"What? But you just... I mean you... Huh? So who were you speaking with?" asked Aerrow.

"Noone special." said Bella as she walked towards the door.

Radarr stopped between her and the door so she wouldn't get away. "Who?" insisted Aerrow.

Bella sighed. "My brother." answered Bella as she jumped over Radarr and left.

"Your brother? Since when do you have a brother?" he asked and started to walk after Bella as Radarr climbed on his shoulder.

"Since he's older than me, I'm guessing since forever... or atleast since I was born... and bloody hell, what on Atmos is going on in here!?" shouted Bella as they walked in to the main room.

The other four were creating a chaos in there. Junko was hanging on the ceiling and eventhough he seemed to be having fun, he was also terrified to come down because Piper was jumping up and down under him with a sinister look on her face and whining at the same time. On the other hand Finn was grabbing on to Stork's head and yelling meaningless stuff like crazy. It kinda looked like Radarr holding on to Aerrow's head in a dangerous situation. And poor old Stork was looking terrified as ever, plus the weight of Finn on his shoulders –literally-

"What's going on in here!? Piper?" asked Aerrow.

"She won't be able to answer you." said Stork, trying to drive the Condor.

"What?" said both Aerrow and Bella in confusion.

"Piper... she was... analyzing your crystals... she came here with one... when Junko and Finn tried... to check it out... Piper tried to... stop them but then... it shined and... THIS HAPPENED!" explained Stork taking deep breaths after every other word.

"Still nothing." said Aerrow. "You?" he asked to Bella and she shook her head.

"Wait a sec. Stork, you sure this was the crystal's doing?" asked Bella.

"YEEES!" he shouted as Finn started pulling his hair.

Bella quickly took out her chain. "Now to get them closer to eachother. Oh well, this has got to do." She brandished the chain like a whip and it grasped Finn. As she pulled back the chain, Finn was pulled off of Stork and landed somewhere near Piper.

"Finally, I'm getting air back into my system again. Thanks." said Stork.

"Don't sweat on it, I'm having fun." said Bella humbly and a grin appeared on her face. Her chain clutched Junko and pulled him down so close to Piper, she fell down because of the jolt and stopped yelling. And for last Bella tied them up with the chain as Stork came next to her and Aerrow.

As the trio sat down tied together, they looked at the others and eachother. Finally they started to cry.

"WHAAAAT!?" the rest of them shouted in shock. "Ok, stand back." said Bella as she activated the crystals attached to the chain. Suddenly the three of them stopped crying.

They started to look around. "Why are we tied together?" asked Finn.

Bella turned her head to Aerrow and Stork and said quietly. "Blocker crystals, way better than blocking crystals. Has that... extra strong effect that never wears off."

"I told you not to touch that crystal!" shouted Piper angrily.

"What crystal?" asked Aerrow.

"The one I finished analyzing. The one you –especially Finn- weren't spoused to touch. I can show you, but these chains are too tight." said Piper.

"If I loosen it even a millimeter, you'll turn back to... whatever you were. These stuff neutralize the effects of a crystal on a person when they're in physical contact with that person, but to deactivate the effects for good, they'll have to get in contact with the crystal." explained Bella.

"Yeah, that's good and all, but the only person who'd be interested in those stuff probably does know that already and she's tied in those stuff." said Aerrow.

"Aerrow... That's kinda mean." said Finn.

"Do these crystals have some side effects, 'cause if they do I think it's getting to Finn." said Junko.

"Right." said Stork sarcastically.

"So what's the crystal Piper?" asked Bella.

"I think it's called an Immaturializer Crystal." answered Piper.

"A what?" asked Aerrow, Bella, Junko and Finn in unison.

"A what?" asked Stork a second after the others as they turned their heads and looked at him. Stork shrugged.

"It's like a Hypnosis Crystal, but it only makes people act like total brats or babies." explained Piper.

"Not like Finn needed it." commented Stork and the rest laughed –except for Finn ofcourse-

"Anyway, they are rare because people think they're useless, which they're in many ways. If it gets in contact with someone's skin, it'll turn them into bratty babies." said Piper.

"So how come you didn't get turned into a baby in your study?" Finn questioned her.

"'Cause Finn, I use gloves and stuff." said Piper.

"But I wasn't using gloves when I found it. How come I wasn't turned into a brat?" asked Bella.

"Maybe you were already too much of a brat to begin with." suggested Junko as the others stared at him. "What? I'm just saying."

Bella took out another crystal from her pocket. "Always carry a spare." she said as she reached for the Immaturializer Crystal stuck between the other. "All done." she said as she untied them.

"Finally, it's a waste we'll have to dispose of it since it's useless." said Piper.

"All that and you're feeling sorry for it." said Finn.

"What are you talking about? The Blockers only undo the effects, the crystal is still usable." said Bella. "It's the only stone I know so much about."

Suddenly the help signal started to go crazy. "What's that?" asked Bella.

"Somebody's calling for the closest squadron for help." exclaimed Aerrow as Stork ran to the wheel.

"Uh guys, this signal is coming from mid air and it's too big to come from a cargo ship or such." said Piper as she checked out the maps. "It's possible that it might be coming from Talons to lure us into a trap."

"What are you talking about? That's not coming from mid air, there's a terra there." said Bella.

"Then how come it's not on the map?" argued Piper.

"We'll have to go and help them if they're under attack or something, we'll argue after. Terra Scope is just too important to spare." said Bella.

"Terra what?" asked Finn.

But before anyone could get their answers Bella had already gotten on her skimmer and was ready to go. "Y'all are coming or what?" she said as she dashed out and the others followed her.
