Episode 4: A Glimpse Of The Second Ice Age
Part 3 - The Save
Meanwhile, about two hours later, in X-2's ship, Lilly & X-25 were still scanning for any signals.
"X-25, do you have Marvin's Genetic Code?" Lilly asked.
"Um… yes… why?" X-25 replied.
"Lock it on & find him."
"Good idea, Miss Lilly."
Meanwhile, on Fridgdonia VII, X-2 was still sitting in the pot hole, with his legs folded up & his arms wrapped around them, shivering. He looked around. The ceiling dripped, making the only noise he could here.
"I-I'm sure th-th-th-that L-Lilly will b-be here, s-soon… sh-she'd… never let me down…" he said. He looked down at the water. It was getting colder. It had very thin pieces of ice, floating on the top of it. He wanted to get out, but he could barely move.
Meanwhile, over the planet, Lilly & X-25 were in the ship, still searching.
"X-25, scan this area. Like, the two planets in front of us." Lilly said. She did & there was nothing found. They were just asteroids. "Woops. These are asteroids." Dr. Woe then appeared on the screen.
"Lilly, I see you're having problems, yes?" he asked.
"YES! I am! And it's your fault, hot dog breath! Marvin is gone & I can't find him!" she yelled.
"Well, I'll give you a hint. The planet he's on is very cold. If you can't find him soon, you know what will probably happen…"
"Yeah, whatever, now get out of the way. I'm going to zoom this thing!"
"Very well…" And with that, he was off the screen.
Very cold… Hmm… Lilly thought.
"X-25, what's that planet that's very cold? It's like Fridiemainia or something." Lilly was trying to remember.
"Fridgdonia VII." X-25 replied.
"Right! Set a course & then scan the planet."
"Yes, Miss Lilly!"
A few minutes later, they arrived. "Scanning." X-25 said as a red laser line went up & down for about five seconds. "Here are the results." Lilly took the paper.
"YES!" she shouted.
X-2 was still sitting there, in the pot hole, shivering… when he heard something…
"MARVIN!" he heard a voice calling him. He looked around. "MARVIN!" That's when he recognized it. It was Lilly! "MARVIN, WHERE ARE YOU? HELOOOOOOOOOO!" she called. He thought quickly. He tried his best & managed to get up & ran to the stream. He jumped into the water & swam down where the opening to the cave was. There, he got half his body out & saw Lilly walking the other way.
Lilly… I have enough energy to shout once… he thought.
"LILLY!" he screamed as hard & loud as he could over the snow storm. She turned around, but X-2 couldn't see her.
"Marvin? He's back there!" she said.
"Right!" X-25, who had changed into a robot body so she could go along with Lilly, walked with her. She ran to find him towards the sound she had heard.
Over by the cave, X-2 almost lost hope. He looked out once more & tried to get the rest of his body out of the water, but couldn't. He just fell back down, not that he made it more than 2 inches up.
"Lilly…" he said quietly, like a whisper. He was too cold & tired to get up. He looked down & closed his eyes, getting a couple of tears in them. Lilly ran closer & saw him.
"X-25, there he is! MARVIN!" she shouted. He looked back up & there was Lilly, running as fast as she could towards him. She made it to him.
"Marvin, there you are! I was so worried! Are you ok?" Lilly hugged him.
"Lilly…" he said, quietly, but loud enough for her to here. His throat was dry.
"Marvin, I'm so happy that you're ok!" Lilly let go. X-2 was very tired & cold. His head fell down. Lilly pulled it back up & he looked at her.
"Come on, now, let's go home."
"Um… I can't move…"
"Oh, well, then, I'll carry you!" She picked him up & carried him over to X-25, who helped the way back to the ship.
In the control room, X-2 was fully recovered & Lilly was sitting in his chair with him.
"Lilly…" he said.
"Yes, Marvin?"
"Um… thank you for… you know… saving me…" X-2 blushed, slightly.
"Oh, no problem! What are friends for?" Lilly hugged him. He hugged her back & then they both let go.
"Well, what do we do, now?"
"Let's go… uh…" X-2 tried to think.
"I know! Let's go to Alaska!" Lilly shouted, excitingly.
"Alaska? Where's that?"
"Right over Canada."
"What's it like?"
"Oh, it's very cold & snowy & lots fish & bears & uh… you know! Cold. And, it's--" X-2 fainted before she could say another word. Lilly gilled.
"Typical!" she said.
The End.
Yay! Happy ending! 3
