"Wait a minute… is that?" LB gasped. "Bok Choy! Electro Melon! Dark Crow!"

The trio turned around and once they saw Larry-Boy, they beamed. "Larry-Boy?!"

"Guys!"

The old friends reunited with a bear hug. Because of Electro Melon's weight, the four fell to the ground. But it only led to their laughter.

"I thought I'd never see you, guys, again!" Larry-Boy smiled.

"It is good to see you again, compadre!" Dark Crow beamed.

"Electro Melon is happy to see you, too!"

"I see that you listened to my lessons." Bok Choy grinned.

"Yup, I did." Larry-Boy remarked as they stood up. "Oh! Where are my manners? Dark Crow, Electro Melon, Master, these are my friends: Bob, Mr. Lunt and Petunia."

"Wow! It's an honor to meet you, guys!" Bob stated.

"And it is a pleasure to meet Larry-Boy's friends." Bok Choy bowed.

"And his girlfriend," added Dark Crow with a teasing grin.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold your horses there, amigo!" LB whispered at Dark Crow. "We're not in that phase yet!"

"Maybe I can help you!"

"Thanks, but I think it's best if we let her heal from this."

"Oh, mi amigo, this is a very difficult situation for you."

LB rolled his eyes. "Yup, it is."

"Why are you here?" Electro Melon growled.

"Oh! There's this villain and he captured me and Petunia. We escaped here and we've only got twenty hours left till Bumblyburg would be—ZAP!— frozen! I could speed up to the town itself, but I've got nothin'! My Larry Mobile is back town!"

"And we are short of supplies and stuff. We can't wait for another delivery. It would take us a day! Bumblyburg would be frozen by then!" Bob added.

Bok Choy though for a while. "Well, we could hand you over some supplies you need. It's just in my garage."

"And I'll give you my spare parts, as a token of our friendship." Dark Crow added.

"Can't we just borrow you vehicle?" Larry-Boy asked.

"I don't have a vehicle, remember? I have portable wings." Dark Crow frowned.

"We not that rich like Larry-Boy." Electro Melon reasoned.

LB laughed nervously. "Now, now. You don't have to point that out in here."

"We'll try to help you in any way we can. But for now, you need to rest a bit. I believe you've encountered quite a situation before you arrived here." Bok Choy advised.

LB sighed. "You've guessed it, Master."

As the four friends talked over with their plans for going to Bumblyburg, they trio behind them simply watched in awe.

"I never knew Larry-Boy would be so…" Bob started.

"Trustworthy? Friendly? Humble? Take your pick." Mr. Lunt added.

"No. You guys knew it. I didn't see it all along." Petunia said.

As Petunia stared at Larry-Boy for a long time, LB noticed that she was looking at him. It wasn't long till the two of them stared at each other. And until Dark Crow got LB's attention back about the plan, they thought of something while they looked at each other. Larry-Boy thought of what will happen next; what will happen if he just stayed away from Petunia to avoid any more danger? What if he never knew her? But, then again, he can't. He relied on her too much that they've become inseparable.

Petunia thought of the missing qualities she didn't see in Larry-Boy. He was good, honest, kind and trustworthy. But why wouldn't he tell her his secret? She didn't care if her life was at stake. If it meant that their friendship would strengthen, she'd want to know. But as she stared longer, she saw a familiar face under LB's mask. Larry's face suddenly flashed before her eyes and her head throbbed badly as her vision went back to the present. She fell on the floor, holding her head, her eyes squeezed close. Could it be?

LB gasped. "Petunia, are you okay?"

The others came to help her up and Bob brought her water in case. "What happened?"

"Nothing." Petunia lied. "I'm fine."

She looked at Larry-Boy once more and observed. If LB was Larry, it would explain that they're both cagey. But maybe he wasn't. Nevertheless, she wasn't sure. She had to keep this thing to herself.

Sorry for the very, very, very late update! XP It was either I didn't have time to update because of our Youth and Singles' Ministry practice or I signed a contract with the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything... :D But, really, I was too lazy to update my stories when I had the chance. To make it up to you, guys, I'm updating this chapter and another one to this story and 2 more chapters in Behind the Scenes. Enjoy! :D
