Gir: Is it tacos!?

Belle: No, Girly. Read and enjoy.

Discovery of a Lifetime

After the incident, Roy took Aeris, the alchemists, engineer, and mechanic, and the girls to his home. They all met at in his study room to talk about what happened.

"Well, the cops were just at the inn," Roy told Aeris as he set the phone down. "The pirates left without a trace. I'm sorry, Aeris. But the inn's been burned to the ground."

"Those cops should be trying to find those jerks!" Ed argued, only to be smacked upside the head by Iris. "Ow, what the hell was that for!?"

"The pirates left without a trace. Don't you listen?" Iris growled. "She's right, Ed. They're gone," Al sighed.

Nita tried to say something to her adopted mother, but Nemo just shook her head at her little sister. Instead, the two siblings walked over to their pals, who looked at them sympathetically.

"If you ask me, I think it was an awful lot of trouble over that weird sphere," Blossom said as Nemo picked it up.

"Yeah, why go after some dumb ball? Why not treasure or valuables!?" Buttercup asked rhetorically.

"Well, the markings are odd," Alfons said curiously. Nemo then began pressing buttons on it absentmindedly as Alfons continued, "I've never seen it before in my life."

As the buttons receded, Nemo then twisted the sphere around with Belle telling her, "I don't think you should be messing around with that."

"Aw, what harm can it do?" Nita scoffed as Alfons said, "It could take me years to find out what that thins is…"

Suddenly, the orb stopped spinning and lit up the room in an eerie green. "Wow, Nemo did the work for you," Bubbles giggled as everyone looked at the weird layout above them.

"It's a map," Kagome breathed in amazed. Inside the holographic layout were what appeared to be worlds, proving that it was a map.

"Hey, that's us, the planet of Toonia," Bunnie pointed to a world excitedly.

"And that's Amestris," Ed said, looking like a kid on Christmas. "And that's Port Royal…and that's Gotham. What, what's this?" He pointed to a planet with only two rings circling it. "It's…it's…"

"Treasure Planet," Nemo and Nita said, fascinated.

"Wheee!" Gir shouted happily. "No way!" Roy, Ed, Al, Alfons, Iris, and Bunnie gasped.

"Treasure Planet!" Kagome and the Powerpuffs shouted.

"Jones' trove of loot? The loot of a thousand worlds?" Roy said thoughtfully. "Do you know what that means!?"

"It means that all that treasure is only a hop, skip, and boat ride away," Nita said as she and her sister looked at the map.

"Whoever brings it back," Iris said, "would be able to hold an eternal place atop the pantheon of explorers. He or she'd be able to experience--!" the map turned off and the regular lights turned on. "Whoo! What just happened?"

"Pay more attention to your surroundings next time," Ed joked as Iris glared at him.

"Aeris, this is it! The answer to all our problems!" Nemo said happily as she and Nita walked over to their guardian.

"Girls, there is absolutely no wa--" Aeris started

"Don't you remember? All those stories that were SO true?" Nita asked.

"That's all they ever were. Stories!"

"With that treasure, we could rebuild the toon bow a hundred times over!" Nemo pointed out.

"Well, this is, it's just, oh my," Aeris said, getting a bit flabbergasted. "Kagome, please tell them how ridiculous this is?"

But the girl shrugged. "Sorry, Mrs. Strife. But I want to go, too," she answered.

"Count us in!" Buttercup and Belle added with Blossom and Bubbles nodding.

"Oh, for the love of-Roy, tell them how crazy this is," Aeris turned to the man and his partners.

"It's really crazy, going all across the galaxy alone," Roy said.

"Now we hear some sense!" Aeris said, looking victorious, while the girls looked defeated. "No fair," Gir sighed.

"That's why I'm going with you," Roy added. Aeris then looked as surprised as the girls. "Ditto on us," Ed, Al, Alfons, Iris, and Bunnie added.

"Hey, you're supposed to be on my side!" Aeris scolded the alchemists. Roy then grabbed six bags out of nowhere, giving them to the Amestrians, and they ran out of the room with the girls and Aeris following close behind.

"We'll just combine our salaries to pay for the expenses... " Roy went to his room to grab his gloves and stuff, "…commission for a ship..." Ed and Al then grabbed all their clothes and stuffed them into their bags, "… hire a captain and a crew..." Alfons then climbed up a pile of books back in the library to reach a cup with a toothbrush in it. He dropped the toothbrush in the bag.

"And tada!" Iris and Bunnie finished as they and the other Amestrians stood on top of the book pile with bags full.

"You're not serious," Aeris said incredulously.

"I think they are," Blossom sighed.

"All our lives, we've been waiting for an opportunity like this, mostly me, " Roy said, sliding down the pile along with the others. "And here it is screaming... Go Mustang, Go, Do the Cabbage Patch--" Roy began to do the cabbage patch, with the other five beat-boxing in the background, but stopped when Aeris spoke.

"Okay, you're ALL grounded!" she shouted.

"Aeris," Nemo started, "I know Nita and I keep messing up, and I know that we let you down. But this is the chance to make it up to you. We're going to set things."

"Whadda mean 'we,' Miss Trouble-Maker?" Nita argued, but nodded in agreement when Buttercup nudged her.

"Aeris, if I may," Alfons said, drawing Aeris over towards him to talk. "You said so yourself: You've tried everything. There are much worse things than a few character building months in space."

"Believe me, I should I know," Bunnie groaned, recalling her experience in Ishbal.

"Are you saying this because it's the right thing to do, or because you all want to go?"

"We really, really, really, really want to go," Ed, Roy, and Iris begged. Al then added, "And it's the right thing," giving his brother, Roy, and Iris glares. Aeris looked over at the Collins', a sad expression on her face.

"I don't want to lose you like I lost Cloud," she said.

"Trust us, you won't," Nemo smiled softly. "We'll make you proud!" Nita chirped. "Or die trying," Buttercup and Bubbles added, making Blossom, Kagome, and Bubbles sigh in exasperation at the two.

"Can I interrupt this tender moment?" Ed said, ruining the moment. "Now that that's all settled, we'll start preperations at once. Girls, soon we'll be off to the space port." He pointed to the sky where a cresent moon was.

"This is going to be great," Nita laughed, ready for the adventure ahead.

GW: Yeah! Adventure is about to begin soon!

Nemo: Read and review.
