Part 3: You look; sound; feel and hell, you even smell like the man I love! But the man standing in front of me is a stranger to me.
Chapter 14: Mission Impossible
Author's Note: Is this a good surprise? Me being back so soon:) Well I don't have much to say because I updated so quickly. The 100th reviewer will get a special one shot made just for them. You'll get to suggest a prompt and what characters will be in it and all I'll do is give it a plot and dedicate it to you. Hopefully, this chapter will reach 100 reviews:)
Dedication: This is to BeccatheGryffindorPrincess! She's a good friend and writes for Harry Potter. So I hope she sees this and MESSAGES ME!
Disclaimer: I own Ryder, Jose, Veronica, Veronica's mother, Taz's father, General Wilson, the Admiral, Jessica, Greg, the Humi and Poqu, the plot and my socks… other than that none of this is mine!
"Does everyone understand this mission?" Up asked as they stood outside the drop pod docking bay.
Everyone shook their heads and Taz face palmed.
"We are going on a peace mission to the planet of Onawa. Which means no shooting unless shot at." He looked over at Taz. "There are two inhabitants, the Humi and the Poqu. They are fighting over some uninhabited land and that's all I was told. We are supposed to go down and help solve the problem, so I guess we'll get more details when we arrive."
"Do jou idiotas get it now?" Taz asked.
They all nodded this time.
"Ok well since it's only our crew going they gave us two smaller drop pods. I'll assume ya'll want to spend time with your significant other and frankly, I don't want to hear that, so Taz and I will take the other pod. Now-" Up was interrupted by a loud squeal.
"I was hoping I would catch you before you left!" Jessica screeched as she ran towards Up.
She ran up and gave him a huge hug.
"I just wanted to give you this." She reached into her pocket and pulled out a picture of herself. She put it in his hand, curled his fingers around it, and moved is fist over his heart.
"That's my move bitch! Well… not the heart one…" Taz thought.
Jessica pulled Up in for a long passionate kiss before he left. Soon everyone else in the crew was kissing their beloved and Taz just stood there awkwardly in the middle of the circle of kissing people.
Taz cleared her throat. A little bit loader this time. A little bit louder than the second time. She was practically having a coughing fit by the seventh time.
"ALRIGHT! BREAK IT UP! We've got a mission waiting!" She finally yelled.
She stared daggers at Jessica and Up until they broke apart.
"Taz is right; we've got a mission to go on." Their Commander replied swaying a little, still drunk from his kiss.

The two drop pods landed on the planet simultaneously. February ran out first shouting something about "being a schience officer" and "checking the amount of oxy-gen in the air."
"Ok guys, you can come out! The air is filled with copious amounts of oxy-gen." February called to her team.
She spun around to see them standing in a line behind her.
"Well aren't you guys on your toes today." She praised.
"How can she not only pronounce but use 'copious' correctly in a sentence, but she can't pronounce oxygen?" Taz whispered to Up. He chuckled before putting on his serious face.
"We'll proceed to search the planet for someone one to take us to peace meeting." He turned and everyone followed him.
From what they could see, half of Onawa was a large meadow and the other half was a large forest. There was mountain in the middle with many caves coming out of it.
"Where is everyone?" Tootsie asked.
"Probably hiding in the caves until the peace meeting is settled." Up answered.
They reached a spot that one foot was in forest and the other was in meadow. There was much arguing coming from a cave that's mouth was on either side of the dividing line.
"I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that's the peace meeting." Krayonder said.
"I don't think so, there is too much arguing for that to be a peace meeting." February said and Tootsie nodded his head in agreement.
Taz face palmed again and Up rubbed her back.
"Let's just go check it out… ok?" Up sighed and began walking towards it.
They stood at the mouth of the cave and peered in. There were two very different looking chiefs sitting at the head and foot of a long, stone table that about 50 people sat at. One was blonde, muscular and looked like the 21st century star, Matthew McConaughey. The other was equally as attractive but was a brunette and he resembled another 21st century celebrity, Ben Barnes.
The blonde one practically jumped out of his chair when he saw the Rangers at the entrance. He was dressed in loose fitting, bohemian style robes and opened his arms to welcome them.
"Welcome! The tribe Humi appreciates you coming down and helping us solve our little problem." He said with smile. All the girls were swooning over him.
The other leader slowly stood up and calmly walked over. His robes were more tightly fitting and traditional. The girls were having a hard time choosing who to drool over.
"The tribe Poqu is also equally, if not more appreciative that you could come." He said calmly with his hands clasped in front of him.
"I think we are the same amount appreciative that they could come and help." The blonde said tersely.
"I also thought we were going to welcome them together!" The brunette responded.
The two began arguing quite animatedly and suddenly Taz had a thought.
"Are jou two related?"
"Why yes little girl." The blonde guy patted her head. "We are brothers… twin brothers actually."
Everyone chuckled but immediately shut up when Taz shot them a look.
"Dat explains so much." Taz muttered.
"Let us sit down and we will tell you the tale of how we came to be." The brunette led them to the table. "You may sit on my side"
He gestured to one side of the table. The chairs were decorated in a fabric similar to his robes and there was a large flag pasted to the wall behind his side. He snapped his fingers and eight people got up. They were dressed in Grecian style toga things that were similar to their leaders.
"No, no. They shall sit on my side." The blonde also snapped his fingers and eight people from his side got up from chairs that were decorated similarly to their chief's robes. They backed up against a wall that also had a flag tacked to it. The people from his side were also dressed in Grecian style toga things but they were more bohemian.
"How 'bout four of us sit one side and four on the other. We'll sit in the middle too." Up added quickly to the end.
Seats were chosen and the brunette began to tell the tale of how the two tribes came to be.
"I am Poqu and my brother is Humi. When we refer to our tribe we will say the Poqu tribe of tribe Humi, but when we refer to ourselves we will drop the tribe."
"That's not confusing at all." Krayonder whispered to Specs. She let out a small giggle but stuffed her hand into her mouth quickly. Poqu continued, not noticing the outburst.
"We used to live in one peaceful community under the rule of our father. After he died, Humi and I took to power. I did not agree with the way my father was running the tribe and Humi would not listen to me, so I left and started my own tribe. We changed the name of our original tribe not wishing for this fighting to be done by the name of our ancestors"
"I respected my father's wishes and continued to cut down the trees to make our beautiful meadow. I still have yet to figure out why this angered my brother so much." Humi said.
"I enjoy living!" Poqu slammed his hands onto the table and leaned into the table to yell across it.
"And I enjoy pleasing our father!" Humi stretched out 'our father'.
"Those trees have the oxygen we need to survive! I'm not only saving my tribe but yours! If you continue to cut down the trees you will kill everyone on the planet!" Poqu shot back.
The brothers continued to argue and the members of each tribe just watched. Their heads were snapping back and forth between the two men like they were watching a tennis match.
"What is the problem of these two hu-mans?" Megagirl asked.
"Yeah, why did you call us down here?" Krayonder cut in.
Humi and Poqu's faces turned red as they remembered they had guests.
"Well you see… Poqu and his little tribe have found a plot of land that no one is living on and have claimed it for the tribe Poqu." Humi started to explain.
"And Humi and his little tribe say that the land is theirs." Poqu interrupted.
"Well it was fathers and we agreed that anything that was his before is now mine."
"I also thought we agreed that anything with trees on it was mine because you didn't want anything with trees on it!" Poqu yelled back making faces.
And the arguing began again.
"Jou are both idiotas!" Taz yelled standing up on the table.
"Well thank you!" Humi winked at her.
"Why don't jou share the land? Dere seems to be enough meadow to conform to de Humi way of life and enough trees for de Poqu way of life. Jou are both so caught up in being stubborn dat jou are neglecting what really matters!" Taz walked towards Humi. "Jou are so obsessed with pleasing jour DEAD father dat jou aren't ruling jour people with a clear head. And Poqu-"
She spun on her heel and began walking towards him.
"I'll bet Commander Up's bigoted at jou were rebellious as a child. Dat is why jou are so into dis tree ding. Well I'm pretty sure dat Humi has enough sense to not cut down every tree!" Taz walked back to the middle of the table. "Even dough jou two fight a lot, I know dat jou love each other. So why not make it work? Just give it a try… if not for jourselfs den for jour tribes. Dis split has probably separated dem from some family-"
"My whole family came with me." A girl sitting at the table interrupted.
"WHO DARES INTERRUPTS THE COMMANDER'S DAUGHTER'S SPEECH?" Humi and Poqu yelled in union.
"Gracias… well as I was- WAIT! DE COMMANDER'S DAUGHTER?" Taz shrieked.
"Oh shit…" Up mumbled.
"El comandante de la hija? ¿Es porque soy pequeña? Bueno, lo siento por ser corto! Yo no tenía mucho que decir en ella! Ni siquiera se parecen! I'm a fucking Starship Ranger! I have been since I was 15! Jou two better be glad dey took my weapons away before we got off de drop pods!" Taz jumped off the table and stomped towards the entrance of the cave.
The rest of the team scrambled to get up and follow her out. The brothers waved good bye and thanked them for their help. They seemed completely un-phased by Taz's outburst. She turned around to see the two boys take seats next to each other in the middle of the table and command that the flags be taken down. She smiled a little as she watched giggle as they prepared the plans to become one tribe again while they wore the other man's crown.

Up closed the hatch to Taz and his drop pod. He watched as Taz pulled out a picture and discreetly whipped her eyes.
"Humi and Poqu remind you of Alejandro and Jose; don't they?" Even though he said it as a question, they both already knew the answer.
He sat next to her and she crawled into his lap. They sat there for a few minutes, both wishing time would just freeze.
"Up? Shouldn't we be back at the Starship now?" Taz asked pulling her head away from his chest.
They both jumped sprinted to the nearest window. They were hurtling towards a large blue planet.
"Mierda… Not again!" Taz yelled.
Sorry 'bout the f-bomb… if yall don't like it I won't use it again. But I will cuss as you guys have seen before. The Humi and the Poqu was sooo much fun to write for:D Still don't have much to say except for the Suburgatory was threeteen instead of 13:) I'll do the Spanish translations in a minute, I just have one question: What do you think about the title for part three? Should it stay the same or should it be "You look; sound; feel and hell, you even smell like the man I love! But the man standing in front of me is a stranger." Please help!
Spanish Translations:
El comandante dela hija? ¿Esporque soypequeña? Bueno, lo sientopor sercorto!Yo no teníamucho que deciren ella!Ni siquierase parecen!- The commander's daughter? Is it because I'm small? Well I'm sorry for being short! I didn't have much say in it! We don't even look alike!
Bigote- mustache:)
