Becky sat in the bedroom in her parents' house that they had lent her for the week, thinking of what she wanted to do. Go back home to Earth and abandon Lexicon in their obvious time of need, or abandon Earth to fix the problems of a planet that I'm not going to live on? Becky pondered. She had duties to attend to at home that couldn't really be accomplished by others, like catching villains when they're robbing something and putting them in jail, and most importantly, keeping them there, but on the other hand, there was obviously something wrong on Lexicon that Becky felt obliged to try and fix, as part of her being a superhero. What to do?

"Becky? Is everything alright?" Bob squeaked, noticing his best friend's confused state as he passed by her room.

"No, not really. I know we have to get home to Earth, but someone's planning something big here on Lexicon, and I can tell. I don't know whether to stay and help or to go back home. Abandon Lexicon again, or abandon Earth?" Becky explained. Bob sighed in his monkey-squeaking language.

"I can't really tell you what you should do, Becky, you have to let your heart decide that." He squeaked. Becky sighed.

"I know, I was afraid of that. Thanks anyways, Bob." Bob gave her a thumbs up and went back to his own business.

As Becky stared back up at the ceiling, she heard a light banging noise on the window. She heard another one quickly follow the last, so she went to her window to investigate and found Kyle throwing stones at her window. Becky used her cover-cloth idea to open the window.

"What do you want?" She spat.

"Come with me, I need to tell you something!" He yelled up.

"I don't know if you haven't noticed, but I can't leave my house without being arrested!" Becky yelled back down.

"I've taken care of that for a few hours, now just come with me!" He demanded. Becky shrugged and went to the front door, to discover after a short debate with Kyle that she was allowed to leave her house for approximately three hours to do some community service in the spaceship field, cleaning up a few spaceships that had gotten dirty from multiple trips across galaxies and ships that had collected space dust.

"What's so important?" Becky asked once they were in the spaceship field and Becky had a rag and a bottle of spaceship cleaner.

"Okay, there are no cameras around here or any kind of surveillance technology, so when I tell you this you have to swear on your life that you won't tell anyone I told you this, or that you know this." He began. Becky's face turned to an expression of confusion.

"Look, I can explain everything you've seen and/or heard during your visit on Lexicon, and I'm going to start from the very beginning of the planet Lexicon…" He began.

"A very long time ago, around the time of what would be the time of the Ancient Egyptians for Earth, there was your Milky way Galaxy and there was another one, the Andromeda Galaxy, where there was a planet called Jargon. (A/N: bear with me here, I made that up. Went to , searched Lexicon, saw this. Not related to anything else in any way.) They were a people very similar to us on Lexicon. They were even so advanced as us that they visited your Earth frequently. A fact that your Earth scientists have had trouble finding out is that Jargonians actually helped construct the pyramids. Anyways, they would visit Earth frequently. So much so to the point that some Earthlings liked their ways of life better than their own. These people developed a hatred for Earth. They would do anything to leave it for Jargon.

"But the Jargonians didn't want Earthlings invading their perfect society. They knew that if they let that happen, the perfection that they had worked so hard to achieve for the past century would be ruined. So what this small group of Earthlings decided to do was to hijack a spaceship the next time the Jargonians visited Earth and they'd find a planet of their own to form their own perfect society on. Except, they weren't going to take it slow like their friends the Jargonians. So what they did was they went back to Jargon, stole a bunch of their technology and reverse-engineered it, making it their own.

"So this group found the planet Lexicon. Their group consisted of five males and five females. They set up very strict rules and a very harshly judging council to run their society. They called themselves 'The Firsts', on account of them being the first inhabitants of Lexicon. They made it very clear that they would rule Lexicon for as long as they lived. And unfortunately for Lexicon, they'd stolen Jargonian technology that enabled one to live forever. Even more unfortunately for Lexicon, they had mind control technology as well. Anyone who did something that they weren't happy about got zapped by the mind control device and were molded into the perfect citizen that The Firsts wanted them to be.

"While all this was going on, The Firsts were utilizing their developing technology. They had stolen experimental tech from Jargonian labs that allowed humans to have super-human abilities, such as a flawless knowledge of the English language, the power of flight, speed, and super-hearing. Basically, all the powers you have, all Lexiconians used to have. But the Lexiconians began to take their powers for granted, and the situation got out of hand. So they took everyone's powers away.

"In a very extreme case, there was a young couple on Lexicon who had a one-year-old child. One day this one-year-old child stumbled aboard a spaceship and crash-landed on Earth. When The Firsts discovered that one of their own had abandoned them for Earth, they were angry. They vowed that if the child were to ever return to Lexicon, she would pay for pledging her loyalty to the planet they had deserted thousands of years before. Something they also had to keep in mind was that this child had disappeared to Earth before they robbed every one of their powers. So if she were to ever return, they felt that there would be trouble. The parents of the child, however, wouldn't give up on their lost child. They kept trying and trying to find their child on Earth. They kept visiting and asking the locals in all their spare time, and they kept trying to make contact with Earth. They were desperate to find their baby girl.

"But The Firsts were infuriated by their constant contact with Earth. So they brainwashed the parents. But that did no good. The parents remembered their child anyways, and they continued their quest to find her. So The Firsts had to go extreme measures to fix the problem. They took the couple hostage and hid them away in the most secure, most private location they could think of, and replaced them with robots of their own creation; robots that were programmed to be ruthless people, who believed just like The Firsts, and obeyed them with no complaints.

"Once again, unfortunately for Lexicon, those parents had also been a part of The Firsts council. They had been very, very minor roles in The Council, but now that they were robots who believed in ruthless society, they were appointed head of the council. Lexicon was under their iron fists. No one was safe from them. Under their power, no one was free to be an individual, to express themselves. No one.

"And basically, that's where we are today. The parents you think you know now aren't your real parents at all. They're exact copies appearance wise, but they're just a metal shell. When you heard those voices in that abandoned building the other day, that was your parents being held prisoner by a guard. They need you, Melissa, to save them. You're the only one who still has their powers anymore. You're the only one who can save them, and all of us. They'll destroy you the second they know you're against them, though, Melissa, you HAVE to be careful." Kyle finished. Becky was very shocked and surprised to have learned all this. It was appalling to learn that her home planet had been victim of thousands of years of lying, deceit, theft and an overall disregard for humanity. Her homeland had abandoned their home themselves, and they were angry with her for abandoning hers, by accident.

"I-I can't believe it…" Becky muttered. "They're…they're literally being hypocrites, if this is true." Becky said. Kyle nodded.

"Pretty much."

Becky looked into Kyle's eyes and saw that he was being completely honest with her. Becky knew now what she had to do.

"Alright…I'll stay to help." Kyle smiled in relief.

"Awesome, I knew I could count on you."

"But wait...if everyone's been brainwashed, how are you rebelling by telling me all this?" Becky asked.

"Because they think I have been. They brainwashed me lots of times before, I've just never actually stayed brainwashed." Kyle explained. Becky nodded in understanding.

"So, we're going to need a plan. A good plan."

Becky and Kyle then put their heads together to think of a brilliant, and completely top-secret plan.

Yaaay I finally got the chapter done :D I can only hope I've hit everything with the little Lexicon backstory. Review?
