Keroro Gunsou: The Azumanga Daioh Adventure!
Part 12: "Momoka: Fuyuki-Lovey-Dovey Operation in America; start! De arimasu!!"
"The night has turned into day; and everyone has started getting up and looking forward to the exciting events of the day and the upcoming week…" The narrator states, then sighs, "…Well; almost everyone. As an alarm clock blares in her room; Tomo lies in her bed; oblivious to the sound."
"Meanwhile…" The narrator says, changing the scene.
"Tetete…this is going to be so much fun!" Terere chimes happily as she hops up and down on Kamiya's bed.
"I know…I'm really looking forward to it," Kamiya states as she stands in front of a mirror and fixes her hair, "It's been so long since my dad and I spent any time together; I can't wait!"
"Did your dad get a hold of you yet and tell you the flight details?" Terere asks. "Not yet. He should be calling soon though; he said he'd call before 10." Kamiya replies as she finishes.
"Well, how do I look?" Kamiya asks, twirling around a little in a dress. "Wow! You look really pretty!" Terere smiles with glee as she looks at Kamiya adoringly. "Thanks! I picked this dress out just for today!" Kamiya smiles and winks at Terere.
"Elsewhere…" The narrator states.
"Argh! Why didn't she gives us more time!" Kagura growls as she furiously rummages through her closet.
"Well, if you'd actually picked out clothes last night instead of waiting until the last second like Tomo does; then you wouldn't have this problem." Yomi states as she stands inside Kagura's room with two suitcases next to her.
"What do mean I'm like Tomo?" Kagura flares as she turns around and faces Yomi. "Ugh…do I even have to explain it?" Yomi sighs as she sweatdrops.
"And at Chiyo-chan's place…" The narrator states happily.
"You almost ready, Chiyo-chan?" A soft voice states from just outside Chiyo's room. "Yeah, I'm almost ready, Sakaki-san. Sorry about this, I overslept a little…" Chiyo trails off as she packs some clothes into a luggage bag.
"Oh, it's alright…I'm just glad I called you in time." Sakaki replies as she walks into the room and smiles.
"Thanks again Sakaki-san!" Chiyo smiles happily.
"Well…everything seems to be going well…" The narrator states, "…Right?"
As Fuyuki walks down the stairs, he hears the sounds of explosions and things shattering coming from under the stairs. "Gunsou?" He asks as he rushes to the door underneath the stairs.
While he makes his way down the ladder, the sounds grow louder and louder. Suddenly the door flies open as Keroro smashes into the wall.
"Gunsou? Are you O.K.?" Fuyuki asks as an aura of anger glows around Keroro. Keroro doesn't hear him as he rushes back into the room.
Fuyuki peeks around the wall and into the room; and his face goes blank almost instantly as he sees the room in total disarray.
Giroro hovers above the mountains of shattered Gunpla models and burned Admiral Geroro mangas; dawned in full battle armor. Keroro quickly presses the star on his head and changes into Full Armor Keroro.
"I always knew this day would come, when I would have to face you, Giroro Gochou!" Keroro flares as he stares down Giroro.
"What's…what's going on here?" Fuyuki asks as a heavy atmosphere falls upon him. "I think I can explain that…" Dororo states as he suddenly appears next to Fuyuki.
"Dororo?" Fuyuki asks with shock. "You see, Giroro-sempai left Keroro-kun to do all the packing this morning for the trip; and when he came back he found 30 suitcases and bags full of Gunpla and mangas…" Dororo explains, his eyes clearly showing his disbelief.
"Keroro…you bastard!" Giroro shouts as he rushes Keroro. Keroro opens fire on Giroro; blowing a trail of holes in the wall as he misses.
Giroro returns fire; causing Keroro to jump out of the way. As Keroro lands; he hears a snap.
"Ah-cha…" He gulps in fear as he looks down and sees his Char's custom Zaku cracked in half under his foot.
Just then Giroro plows into him; knocking him to the ground and causing his armor to dissipate. "Zaku-sama…I'm sorry…" Keroro mutters as his soul floats away with a tiny pair of wings.
"Giroro?!" A voice shouts; and everyone, except the defeated Keroro, turns to see Natsumi standing at the doorway.
"N-Natsumi!" Giroro shouts in total shock as he drops his guns. "Did you make this mess?" Natsumi asks as she looks at him angrily.
"Uh…well, you see…" He stutters as his armor disappears. "We're going to be leaving in less than 6 hours…you'd better have this cleaned up by then!" Natsumi growls.
"But…but…" Giroro mutters as Natsumi, Fuyuki and Dororo leave; closing the door behind them. Suddenly, an aura of anger flares around Giroro as he turns to see the still defeated Keroro lying on the ground.
"Keroro…you bastard!!" He shouts as Keroro wakes up, only to see Giroro towering over him.
From upstairs, Natsumi and Fuyuki hear a blood-curdling scream from Keroro.
"Gunsou…" Fuyuki mutters sadly as he walks into the living room. "Really! He should've had this all taken care of already!" Natsumi flares as she takes a seat on the sofa.
"At least you two have all your packing done." Dororo states as he stands on the arm of the sofa and nods approvingly. "Yeah, we've got our packing done." Natsumi states, looking at Dororo.
"Yay! That's my precious Natsumi-san!" Koyuki shouts as she tackles Natsumi out of nowhere. "K-KOYUKI-CHAN?!" Natsumi shouts as Koyuki lovingly hugs her and smiles ecstatically.
Just then, a ring on the doorbell comes out of nowhere; causing everyone to jump a little. "Oh, it's just the door…" Fuyuki laughs nervously as he rubs the back of his head, "…I'll get it."
Fuyuki makes his way to the door and opens it. "Saburo-san?" Fuyuki mutters as Saburo walks into the house.
"S-SABURO-SEMPAI?!?" Natsumi shouts as her face turns red; causing Koyuki to look at her with confusion.
"Hi everyone. Sorry to drop by like this; but Kururu told me that you're going to America for a week. Is that right?" Saburo asks as he walks into the living room.
"Yes, that's correct." Dororo states as he nods slightly. "Oh, that's great! Can I come with you?" Saburo asks, causing Natsumi to turn bright red.
No way! Saburo-sempai wants to go to America with…me? Natsumi thinks to herself as she lightly presses her fingers together with embarrassment as Koyuki watches with slight confusion.
"Kuku…I've already contacted President Nishizawa-sempai about it." Kururu states as he walks into the room; eating a plate of curry.
"Thank you, Kururu." Saburo states as he gives him a thumb's up. "It's nothing…don't mention it…" Kururu mutters as he continues to eat and walk into the kitchen.
"Say, is your mother going?" Saburo suddenly asks as he looks at Fuyuki. "Huh…oh no, she's staying here. She's really busy at work; so she can't come." Fuyuki replies with a slight sigh.
Kukuku…I just hope that Terere-san doesn't find out about this trip… Kururu thinks to himself as he gets a little upset just thinking about it.
"If only you knew the truth, Kururu…" The narrator sighs, "Well, while this is going on, what's happening at the Nishizawa residence?"
"Momo-chi! I'm ready to go!" Tamama shouts as he rushes into the room with only one small bag of luggage.
"That's great, Tama-chan. Father said that the plane will be arriving here at 4:15; so we have to pick up Fuyuki-kun before then." Momoka states with a smile.
"What about Na-chi and the others?" Tamama asks as a question mark appears above his head. "Oh yeah…them too…" Momoka laughs as she blushes a little.
"Momoka-ojousama, are you ready?" Paul asks as he walks into the room. "Yes!" Momoka smiles happily.
"We don't have to leave for a few more hours…we should make sure that you've got everything." Paul states as he walks towards Momoka.
Suddenly Momoka's hair spikes as she growls angrily. "Paul…I said I'm ready! I want to go see Fuyuki-kun now!!" She roars; causing Paul to shrink and quickly back away.
"Yes Momoka-ojousama…I'll go prepare the helicopter right away…" He mutters as he quietly makes his way out of the room.
"YES! Operation: Fuyuki-kun lovey-dovey in America officially begins!" Momoka clenches her fist with happiness as she laughs with insane glee.
"Meanwhile, in America…" The narrator states.
"There! Finally got all that taken care of…" Jouji Yumenna states in English as he hangs up his phone in his office, "…Now to call my little Kamiya and let her know the good news."
"Sir, there's a call on line 3 from President Nishizawa of the Nishizawa Peach Group." A receptionist announces from outside Jouji's office. "Oh," Jouji mutters with surprise, "Thank you. I'll take the call in my office."
He presses the flashing line 3 button and puts the receiver to his ear. "Hello? Nishizawa-sensei?" Jouji asks in Japanese.
"How's everything going, Yumenna-sensei? Is everything in order?" Baio states as he stands in front of his castle in Scotland. Rotor-blades from a nearby helicopter blow his hair out of place as he talks on his cell phone.
"I just finished the flight arrangements for my daughter and her friends. I also planned out a road trip for them as well." Jouji tells Baio with a smile of satisfaction.
"Road trip?" Baio asks. "Yes. I have factory locations all over the United States; so I thought that a road trip would be the best way for them to enjoy the landscape; and at the same time for us to visit all of the various factories." Jouji explains.
"An interesting idea…" Baio comments as he walks towards his helicopter. "Where are you? I can barely hear you now." Jouji states as he moves the phone to his other ear.
"I'm in Scotland at the moment; I flew over here last night. I'll be traveling privately to America today and my daughter and her friends will be leaving later in the afternoon." Baio states.
"O.K. We'll have to talk later then when you get to America. Bye!" Jouji states as he listens to Baio hang up moments later.
"Alright, now to call Kamiya…" Jouji states as he presses the button to hang up the line and dials internationally to Japan.
"Moments later…in Japan…" The narrator states.
"Hello?" A voice asks from downstairs as Kamiya walks up to the stairs. "Mom? Who is it?" Kamiya asks as she walks down the stairs and into the living room.
"It's your father; he wants to talk to you." Chiwa states as she hangs Kamiya the phone with a smile. Kamiya bows lightly and takes the phone. "Hello? Dad?" She asks politely.
"Hi Kamiya! Are you all packed and ready to go?" He asks her in English. "Yes, I am." Kamiya replies in English happily.
"Good. I just called to let you know that the flight I've arranged for you and your friends will be leaving at 5:05 from Tokyo Narita International. Got a pen and paper handy?" He asks her.
She looks around quickly and finds a notepad and a pen on the nightstand next to a sofa. "Yeah, got one right here." She states in Japanese as she picks them up.
"O.K. Here are the details…" He states as he speaks Japanese again, "It's Flight #8192, from Northwest Airlines. It's leaving from Gate 12 in the North Wing. Did you get all that?"
"Yep, got it!" She replies happily as she finishes writing. "Good. I'm already in America, as you know; so I'll be waiting at the airport for you when you arrive." He tells her.
"O.K. Dad. I'll call everyone else and let them know." Kamiya replies. "Alright. I'll see you later then, my little princess!" He laughs lightly. "Dad…" Kamiya mutters lightly as she blushes. "Oh yeah, I keep forgetting. Old habits, huh?" He laughs nervously as he sweatdrops a little.
Chiwa walks into the living moments later as Kamiya says her goodbyes and hangs up the phone. "Say, did you need someone to give you a ride to pick up your friends and take you to the airport?" She asks Kamiya.
"Sure, that'd be great!" Kamiya smiles as Terere walks down the stairs and into the room. "Were you going to help us, Mama-san?" Terere asks.
"Yes, Terere-chan." Chiwa smiles as she looks down at Terere, "I think everyone will be able to fit into the station wagon…although it might be a tight squeeze."
"Well; it's either that or pay for a bunch of cabs…" Kamiya replies as her face goes blank. "In that case; I'll go get dressed. We'll need as much time as we can to get ready, get everyone and get over to the airport." Chiwa comments.
Kamiya watches for a few moments as Chiwa heads up the stairs and turns back to the phone. As Kamiya picks it up to dial, Terere hops onto the edge of the sofa and looks up at Kamiya.
"Say Kamiya-dono…do you think I should contact Kururu-sempai and his friends and let them know about this trip?" Terere asks quietly.
"Um…well; that's up to you really. They might be busy; so I'd say not though." Kamiya states as she looks down at Terere; then a split second later she looks up, "Oh, heya Chiyo-chan! I just got talking to my dad on the phone; and I've got the time for the flight."
"Yeah…she's probably right. Kururu-sempai's been avoiding me lately; so maybe it's best that I don't contact him." Terere mutters with sadness as she hops off of the sofa and walks away quietly while Kamiya talks to Chiyo.
"Elsewhere, a short time later…" The narrator states.
"Tomo…" A voice calls out as Tomo lies in her bed; snoring loudly. Her alarm has stopped ringing now and ticks quietly on her nightstand.
"Tomo!" The voice calls out again as a light tapping comes from her door. Tomo stirs a little; but she doesn't wake up.
"TOMO!!" The voice yells; and Tomo jolts awake suddenly. "WHAT? WHAT?!" She shouts as she looks around in wide-eyed confusion.
"It's just me. Were you still asleep?" The voice states from outside her room. "Oh, mom. Yeah, I was asleep…" Tomo sighs a puff of air as she slinks back into her bed.
"You need to get up. Yomi-san and Kagura-san are here." Her mother explains. "Why are they here so early…?" Tomo asks herself as she looks lazily at her alarm clock.
"OH MAN! NO WAY! IT'S THAT LATE ALREADY! HOLY FREAKIN' CRAP!" Tomo shouts as she stares in disbelief at her alarm clock.
"Tomo, don't tell me you're just getting up now?" Yomi states as she opens the door and walks in, followed by Kagura. "Yeah…" Tomo sighs again unhappily.
"Man, you really need to get organized. Kamiya-chan just called me a few minutes ago with the flight details and stuff." Kagura states.
"OH MAN; THAT'S TODAY?" Tomo shouts as she jumps from her bed and rushes Yomi. "Idiot…" Yomi sighs.
"Oh man…I'll never get packed in time!" Tomo shouts as she races to her dresser and starts throwing clothes everywhere.
Yomi sighs deeply as she pushes her glasses up on her face. "…I suppose we can help you, just this once…" Yomi begins, "…I don't want to be late on the account of you not being ready."
"Yay! Thank you Yomi!" Tomo shouts as she waves her arms around excitedly. "Tell me why we're taking her along again?" Kagura mumbles as she covers her face in shame.
"Elsewhere…" The narrator states.
"Whew! Finally got it all cleaned up, de arimasu!" Keroro sighs as he wipes his brow with his arm.
"We wouldn't have had to do all that if you'd actually packed appropriately." Giroro grumbles as he crosses his arms. "I did pack appropriately! I had enough Gunpla to keep myself occupied throughout the trip, de arimasu!" Keroro retorts.
Just as they start arguing again, Kururu walks into the room, snickering in his usual manner. "Kukuku…are you two busy?" Kururu asks; causing them to turn and look at him.
"What is it, Kururu Sochou?" Giroro asks as he walks over to Kururu. "Tell me…since we are going to America; do you either one of you know how to speak English?" Kururu asks them as he snickers evilly.
Giroro and Keroro both go completely white. "…No…" They both mutter in shock at the same time.
"Kukuku…I thought so…" Kururu snickers. Suddenly Keroro raises a hand and waves it wildly. "Oh wait, I know some English. I was reading it while waiting in line for a new Gunpla model!" Keroro shouts.
Giroro and Kururu watch as Keroro stands triumphantly and puts his hands on his hips. "Let's see, it went…" He begins in Japanese, then speaks in an American accent, "…Saluton, kiel vi fartas?"
Giroro and Kururu both sweatdrop as they listen to Keroro.
"That's Esperanto, moron!" Giroro shouts angrily as he smacks Keroro in the back of the head.
"…Looks like you two are going to need this then…" Kururu snickers as he pulls out two devices and hands them to Keroro and Giroro.
"What's this?" Keroro asks as he rubs the bump on the back of his head. "It's the 'East as in America' translator, similar to what I gave you to help adult Natsumi, Giroro-sempai." Kururu snickers evilly as his glasses suddenly catch the light and sparkle.
"What?" Giroro shouts as he turns bright red, "I-I can't use this! That ended up embarrassing Natsumi last time!"
"Kuku…I said this was similar to it; not the same. This will work, trust me." Kururu states.
"Did he just say, trust me?" The narrator asks nervously.
Keroro and Giroro both stare at the device cautiously. "Well, you can use it or not; I don't really care either way. Just don't come to me when you can't understand what the people in America are saying." Kururu replies as he starts to walk away.
"Wait Kururu." Giroro states as he extends his arm to reach out towards Kururu. Kururu stops and turns around, still snickering to himself.
"I can speak some English actually…" Giroro begins as he blushes a little, "…Do I really need this?"
"Kukuku…your English vocabulary is limited to, 'Natsumi, my love, kiss me tender and hold me tight forever!', Giroro-sempai…" Kururu snickers as he acts really cute and puts his hands on the sides of his face.
Giroro growls angrily as he grabs a pair of guns. "SHUT UP!!" He screams as he opens fire on Kururu. Moments later, Kururu wanders out of the smoke, all bandaged up.
"Kururu-sempai…how do use this?" Dororo asks as he appears out of nowhere and points to the device Keroro is holding.
"Dororo…when did you get here?" Keroro asks; causing Dororo to start crying.
"Kukuku…it's very simple. You place it on your head and speak into the communicator." Kururu states as he pulls out another one and puts it on his head.
"You can even use different accents with it…" Kururu states in Japanese as he turns a dial on the machine. "Oh, let me see!" Keroro shouts excitedly.
"Yo Keroro, whazzup?" Kururu speaks with a New York accent and gives Keroro a thumb's up. A heavy atmosphere falls upon Giroro, Dororo and Keroro almost instantly.
"…Do they really talk like that in America?" Keroro asks as he stares blankly at Kururu. Kururu doesn't reply; but instead snickers lightly to himself.
"Well; I guess this is better than nothing." Giroro sighs as he starts to walk away. "Thank you, Kururu-sempai." Dororo nods as he disappears moments later.
"Uncle can speak English fluently now?" Mois asks as she walks into the room through the refrigerator portal. "Oh, Mois! How's it goin'?" Keroro asks as he uses the translator.
Mois sweatdrops a little, but tries to maintain a smile. "You could say, very hard to understand?" Mois laughs a little nervously.
"Meanwhile, somewhere out in space…" The narrator states.
"Piro…I'm soooo tired…" Piroro sighs as he reclines lazily in the pilot's chair of his cruiser. "You've been really restless the past few nights, Piroro. This isn't like you." Optivula states as he steers the ship as a pair of hands.
"…I know. I've just been thinking too much lately; and that's been preventing me from falling asleep." Piroro sighs limply.
"If I didn't know better; I'd say that it had something to do with that Pekoponjin girl…" Optivula mentions smoothly.
Piroro turns bright red almost instantly. "I-I have no clue what you're talking about!" Piroro stutters as he sweatdrops a little.
"Let's see…what was her name again…Eliza, Olizzy…" Optivula taunts. "It's Alisa!" Piroro shouts without thinking; then gulps in fear.
"Ah, so you do remember! I thought you said you no clue what I was talking about…" Optivula mocks as he taunts Piroro, "Huh? Huh? What do have to say for yourself now?"
Piroro shakes lightly as he looks up at Optivula. "Shut up you! So what if she is what's been keeping me up at night?"
"Ah…you're like a love-sick space puppy, Piroro-sempai." Optivula snickers as he continues to pilot the ship.
"That's not funny, Optivula! I'm not like that at all…" Piroro mutters as he blushes, "…It's just that she's so cute and sweet…"
"Piroro-kun, you have a strange sense of what's cute…" The narrator comments.
"So, why don't you ask her out then?" Optivula asks. "Are you joking?! I could never do anything like that!" Piroro shouts as he sits up in the chair.
Optivula adjusts a little bit but maintains control of the ship. "Come on…you were saying before that you thought you two were pretty compatible; with me and Nevula being similar and all. Why don't you just go back to Pekopon and ask her out?" He asks again.
"It's not that simple!" Piroro shouts as he sweats profusely, "You see; there's…there's…oh, you know! Like she may not be there, and then there's the price of fuel to consider, and-"
"You're just too nervous; that's what it really is." Optivula states. The words, 'Exactly right' poke Piroro in the cheek.
"Well…so what if I am? I've never been in love before; you know that better than anyone." Piroro mutters quietly in shame.
Optivula sighs loudly. "Piroro…you do remember that they're after Fuyuki-kun and his friends as well. You said yourself back on Pekopon that he would be better for Alisa-chan than you would." Optivula states.
Piroro sighs unhappily. "…I know…" Piroro mutters, "…Even though I regret it now; it was the truth; and I can't go back on that now. I don't know for certain whether or not she likes Fuyuki-kun; but at the same time, I did see the way she was looking at him and that suggested to me she was at least interested in him; if not a bit intrigued by him. She didn't show any kind of interest in me other than simple confusion."
"I think you're just feeling sorry for yourself, Piroro, and not facing the fact that you still like her." Optivula states. "Perhaps you're right, buddy. What do you think I should do?" Piroro asks him.
"I think you need to go back to Pekopon and face your fears. Either talk to Alisa-chan and confess your feelings; or figure out some way to stop loving her so it doesn't eat away at your sanity." Optivula suggests.
Piroro thinks quietly for a moment. "Yes, that sounds like a good idea! Can you locate her?" Piroro asks suddenly.
"It might be hard; but I should be able to track down Nevula's energy." Optivula states as one of his hands starts tapping a few keys on the ship's controls.
"Alright; then let's head back to Pekopon!" Piroro states as he starts resonating happily. "Hehe, it's good to see you back in good spirits, buddy." Optivula chuckles.
Piroro stops resonating slowly, causing Optivula to look down at him. "Now that that's over with…" Piroro mutters as he yawns, "…I'm going to go to sleep. I'll leave the piloting to you, Optiv…"
As Piroro trails off and falls asleep; Optivula sighs. "Thanks…" He mutters sarcastically as he continues to pilot the ship.
"Back on Pekopon…" The narrator states.
"That's it just up the road there, Mom." Kamiya states as she sits in the passenger seat of her mom's station wagon and points to Chiyo's mansion-like house a short distance away.
"Just an upscale neighborhood…" Chiwa comments quietly as she drives. "Tetete…yeah, tell me about it! I can't believe that she lives there either." Terere adds as she sits between Kamiya and her mother.
"Oh Kamiya, I was going to ask you…" Chiwa begins as she pulls up in front of Chiyo's place, "…Do your friends know about Terere-chan?"
A heavy atmosphere falls upon Kamiya not a moment later. "No…" Kamiya sighs as her eyes go blank.
"Tetete…don't worry about it, Mama-san. I won't be seen by them." Terere laughs as she smiles at Chiwa. That's what worries me… Kamiya grimaces, …They're all going to think I'm crazy again.
"Um, Kamiya-dono…" Terere begins as she pokes her lightly in the arm, "…Don't you have to go up there and ring the bell?"
"Huh? Oh yeah…" Kamiya laughs nervously as she sweatdrops. She silently gets out of the vehicle and walks up to the speakerbox on the outside of the wall.
"Uh Chiyo-chan…you there?" Kamiya asks as she presses in the button. A few moments pass with no answer; then Chiyo's face flashes on the screen.
"Hi, Kamiya-san! We'll be out in just a few minutes." Chiyo happily states with a smile. Kamiya nods quietly and heads back to the vehicle.
"They'll be right out." Kamiya states as she hops back into the station wagon. "O.K. Then after here; we have to stop by Tomo-san's place and Osaka-san's place, right?" Chiwa asks. "Yeah. Kagura-chan and Yomi-chan are at Tomo-chan's and Sakaki-chan is here." Kamiya replies with a nod.
Just then, they hear the gate to Chiyo's place as Sakaki and Chiyo rush out. "Hi, Kamiya-san!" Chiyo shouts as she rushes to the door of the station wagon and opens it.
"Thanks again for giving us a ride, Yumenna-dono." Sakaki states with a bow. "Oh no, it's fine. I'm just glad that you could go with Kamiya." Chiwa replies happily.
"Say…I don't mean to be rude or anything…but after we pick up the others; can we stop by the school real quick?" Chiyo asks politely.
"Sure. Was there something you needed there?" Chiwa asks. "Well, Yukari-sensei and Kurosawa-sensei said that we needed to pick up homework from them for over the vacation so we don't fall behind." Chiyo replies.
"Oh yeah! She's right!" Kamiya adds as she turns to face her mother. "O.K. School's very important, and I'm glad to hear that they're making sure you keep up on your work. We'll stop by there too." Chiwa states with a firm nod.
"Thanks, Yumenna-dono!" Chiyo smiles as Sakaki finishes setting their luggage in the far back of the vehicle. As they both strap in, Chiwa puts the vehicle in drive and leaves Chiyo's place.
"Meanwhile…" The narrator states.
"Say, why aren't we taking one of Gunsou-san's ships to America?" Tamama asks Momoka as they fly over to the Hinata residence.
"Father was nice enough to book one of his private jets for this trip," Momoka explains, "I thought it was only fair we accept his offer and take the plane."
"Oh, I see…" Tamama mutters as he looks out the window and sees them closing in on the Hinata residence, "…Momo-chi! We're almost there!"
On the ground, everyone inside the house hears the sound of helicopter blades whirling. Saburo is first outside as the helicopter hovers just above the ground as Momoka and Tamama hop out.
"Ah, Momoka-san! Tamama-san!" Saburo announces as he waves to them. "Oh, hi Saburo-san. I didn't know you were going too?" Momoka states as she walks towards him.
"Kukuku…that's because I contacted your father directly." Kururu tells her as he walks up next to Saburo.
"Oh…" Momoka mutters quietly as Keroro and the others join Saburo and Kururu. "We're ready to go finally." Giroro states as he crosses his arms.
"Is everyone here then?" Momoka asks. "Everyone's here, de arimasu!" Keroro shouts, saluting Momoka.
Suddenly Tamama's eyes light up as he stares happily at Keroro. "Wow! Gunsou-san's ready to go! This has to be a first!" He chimes with excitement.
"Tamama-kun…" Keroro limply mutters as a heavy atmosphere falls on him.
"Ah…well…" Fuyuki begins as he laughs a little, "…I think we'd better be going." "Yes!" Momoka shouts happily as she slides up next to Fuyuki.
"While everyone loads up their luggage and boards the helicopter; elsewhere another group of friends prepares to leave to America…" The narrator explains.
"Well; thanks for picking us up and giving us a ride, Mom." Kamiya states as she stands at the entrance to the airport.
"Don't mention it Kamiya," Her mother smiles as she sits in the driver's seat of the station wagon, "Just promise me you'll have a good time there, O.K.?"
"I promise," Kamiya smiles as she reaches into the vehicle and gives her mom a hug, "I'll call you when I get there."
"Alright, that sounds great. I'll see you guys later!" Chiwa announces to the group of girls as she waves her goodbyes. They all wave back as she drives away and around a corner.
"Man…I still can't believe you got all that homework from Yukari and Nyamo…" Tomo mutters as she looks at an entire suitcase full of homework.
"Yeah…it's like we won the World Series, or somethin'!" Osaka comments as she raises her pointer finger to emphasize the point.
The entire group sweatdrops as Osaka smiles and looks off in another direction aimlessly.
"So, this is Narita International, huh?" Yomi states as she walks into the main terminal. Suddenly Tomo rushes by her; leaving everyone else to stare in wonder.
"WOW! I can't believe we're really going! This is amazing!" Tomo screams at the top of her lungs as she rushes through the terminal; running past tourists and businessmen.
"Um…should we just pretend that we don't know her?" Kagura asks quietly with blank eyes. "That might be wise…" Yomi replies with a sigh.
"Alright you guys…my dad said we can pick up our tickets here. We just have to go up to the Northwest booth and present them with our passports and I.D.'s. The tickets are already paid for; so no need to worry there." Kamiya explains.
"That was really nice of your dad to pay for our tickets too, Kamiya-san." Sakaki comments. "Oh no, don't mention it…" Kamiya laughs nervously as she rubs the back of her head.
"HEY; I SEE IT! I SEE IT!!" Tomo shouts as she frantically runs around in circles. Yomi sighs loudly as she puts her hands on her hips. "…What do you see, Tomo?" She asks hesitantly.
Tomo frantically points at a line of people a short distance from them. "The Northwest booth! It's the Northwest booth!" Tomo shouts as she bounces up and down in front of Yomi.
"Well, it looks like for once Tomo's actually being useful." Yomi mutters sarcastically as she walks past Tomo and towards the booth. "Hey! That's not fair Yomi!!" Tomo pouts as she chases after Yomi.
"Those two never stop, huh?" Kamiya laughs lightly as she sweatdrops. "I guess not…" Chiyo adds limply.
"Elsewhere…" The narrator states.
"Wow, Nishizawa-san! That's a really nice plane!" Fuyuki shouts as the helicopter nears the airfield where the plane Baio had prepared is waiting. Momoka giggles lightly as she sits on the other side of the aisle from Fuyuki.
"Pekoponjin technology is so slow, de arimasu! Why do we have to take that?" Keroro groans as steam shoots of his head. "It's called courtesy…something you don't know anything about…" Giroro grumbles as he sits next to Keroro.
As they start arguing again, Paul lowers the helicopter and lands a short distance from the plane. "Momoka-ojousama; we've landed. I'll help with the luggage if you want to make sure that the pilot is ready." Paul states as he turns around slightly in his seat.
"Alright. Thank you, Paul." Momoka nods as she unbuckles herself and heads towards the door of the helicopter.
Outside on the ground, a man rushes out towards the helicopter. "Greetings everyone! I'm the pilot that your father hired, Nishizawa-dono. We're ready to depart now, if you'd like." He explains as Momoka steps onto the ground.
"Yes, we're ready." Momoka replies as the others start to file out of the helicopter. "We're going to be making a stop in Honolulu to refuel; this about a 13 hour flight in total." The pilot states.
"It's O.K…" Momoka states as she blushes a bit, "…I've got some company for the trip."
"I wonder who she could be talking about?" The narrator remarks as an arrow points to Fuyuki.
"Alright. I'll have the crew make sure everything is ready; and we'll be off in a few minutes!" The pilot states with a nod as he rushes off quickly back to the plane.
"Is everything in order, Momoka-ojousama?" Paul asks as he walks up next to Momoka, carrying 4 suitcases. "Yes, Paul; everything's good to go. I just hope that everything will go well on this trip." Momoka replies as she looks down at the ground, a note of concern in her voice.
Paul chuckles lightly and Momoka looks up at him. "Don't worry; I will make sure that everything goes well." Paul states. "Alright!" Momoka shouts as her hair spikes and she clenches her fist with determination.
"Back with the group of girls at the airport…" The narrator states.
"Wow…this line is so long…" Kagura sighs as she stands in the ticket line with the rest of the girls.
Suddenly, a light breeze blows by each of them; and they turn to see another girl standing behind them in line.
"ALISA-CHAN?!?" They all shout in shock at the same time as she looks up at them slightly.
"I am intrigued…why are you all here?" Alisa asks as she looks at Osaka. "We're takin' a trip to America!" Osaka replies with a determined salute as her eyes shrink to dots.
"America…" Alisa begins as she looks around a little, "…I am going there as well. I hope we get to sit by each other on the plane."
Sakaki nods as the others smile half-heartedly. "Yes, that'd be nice." Sakaki nods her head slightly.
Man, that girl is creepy. I thought she went back to her other school already… Kagura thinks to herself as she sweatdrops a little.
I wonder what she's doing here? Does she have business in America… Kamiya thinks to herself; then suddenly her expression changes to fear, …Or maybe, could she be following us?
Several minutes pass by silently as they continue through the line. Finally, Chiyo makes it up to the counter and starts talking with the lady behind the service desk.
One by one they make their way through the line; each handing over their luggage to be scanned and sent onward. Lastly, they make their way to the metal detector booth.
"O.K.; you're next." The man stationing the metal detector walkway states as he motions Yomi to walk through.
Suddenly, the buzzer goes off; and everyone except Alisa immediately sweatdrops.
"Say Kamiya, what is that?" Alisa asks, causing Kamiya to turn around in shock. "Oh, that? That's a metal detector. As you pass through it; it'll detect any metal objects on you." Kamiya briefly explains.
"I don't have any metal on me…I will be fine then, correct?" Alisa asks innocently. "You should be…" Kamiya begins as she turns around, "…But why did Yomi-san set it off?"
Yomi's eyes go blank as the man motions for her to step off to the side. "Do you have any metal objects on you that you didn't place in the basket?" He asks her.
"Um…no, I shouldn't…" Yomi mutters as she sweatdrops big time.
The man picks up a detector wand and passes it over Yomi; and it starts beeping near her right back pocket. "Do you have anything in your back pocket?" The man asks Yomi.
"Um…I didn't earlier…" Yomi states as she reaches cautiously into her back pocket. Moments later, much to her surprise; she pulls out a small, thin piece of shiny metal.
A heavy atmosphere falls upon all the girls except for Tomo; who starts laughing hysterically. "What's so funny…?" Yomi growls as she turns around slowly to face Tomo.
"Man, you should've seen your face! It was priceless!" Tomo shouts as she holds her stomach from all the laughing, "I'm so glad I put that in your pocket!"
"You did WHAT?!?" Yomi screams; and Tomo stops laughing instantly. "Yomi…it was just a joke…" Tomo gulps in fear as Yomi's aura towers angrily over her.
"This could get ugly…" Kamiya mutters quietly to Alisa as she looks on with wonder and intrigue. "It does not seem like it was that funny of a joke." Alisa comments as she looks at the heavy atmosphere still hanging over the other girls.
The man sighs as Yomi grabs Tomo and starts yanking on her face. "You think that was funny, do ya now?" Yomi growls as she tugs on Tomo's face as hard as she can. "Just like stuffy old Yomi to not take a joke!" Tomo retorts as she struggles to free her face.
"Can we go through now?" Kagura sighs as she walks up to the man. "Sure, you all can go through. Sorry for any inconvenience." He states as he motions the rest through.
A few minutes pass as the rest of the girls go through the metal detector without incident. They wait for a little while longer as Yomi stops attacking Tomo and explains to the man what had happened. Finally, they pass through the detector without any more problems and join the other girls.
"So, with that out of the way; how about we get some food before we leave?" Sakaki asks as she motions towards a WcDonald's restaurant inside the gate terminal.
"Oh yay! Food! I'm starvin'!" Osaka shouts as she floats lazily towards the restaurant. "Wait up Osaka-san!" Chiyo shouts as she sprints after Osaka; followed closely by Yomi, Tomo, Kagura and Sakaki.
Alisa starts to follow the other girls when Kamiya grabs her sleeve and stops her. "Wait a second, Alisa-chan…" Kamiya states as she releases Alisa's sleeve.
"What is it, Kamiya?" Alisa asks her. "Um, well…I was just wondering…why are you going to America?" Kamiya stutters slightly as she asks the question.
"I'm tracking someone to there. I'm going by plane to avoid being noticed by them." Alisa states.
Wow…I thought she'd try to cover it up a little more than that. Kamiya thinks to herself as she sweatdrops.
"But then, why don't you just fly there instead? Wouldn't that be cheaper?" Terere asks as she walks in front of Alisa, her anti-barrier creating a rainbow effect around her body.
"That's a lot of miles. I can't fly that far without resting at some point." Nevula states as an eyeball appears on Alisa's hairband, "As for the cost, we've been fortunate to have some money hidden inside our home. We used that to pay for this flight."
"You're that Keronian who is always with Kamiya-san here…what's your name?" Nevula asks as he looks down at her. "My name's Terere. I'm sorry that we were never formally introduced, tetete." Terere giggles a little as she smiles at Nevula.
"Terere…" Alisa mutters a little as she realizes something. "What is it, Alisa-chan?" Kamiya asks as a question mark appears above her head.
"That name; I have heard it before. You are related to the Keronian known as Kururu, correct?" Alisa asks Terere.
"Um…I wouldn't exactly say we're related…" Terere mutters as her eyes go blank, "…But we are sort of dating…if you can call it that nowadays."
"So that means…" Nevula begins as he looks on with shock. "…Fuyuki…" Alisa mutters quietly as she finishes Nevula's statement.
"Hey, are you two going to come and get some food or what?" Kagura shouts from across the terminal as they sit at a table and eat.
Alisa and Kamiya both turn around as Nevula's eye disappears. "Yeah, we're coming now!" Kamiya shouts as she looks at Alisa.
"I…am not hungry…" Alisa mutters quietly as she looks at the floor. "Oh? That's O.K. though, you can just come and sit with us then." Kamiya giggles a little as she starts walking towards the WcDonald's.
Alisa watches as Kamiya and Terere walk over to the WcDonald's. "This could prove to be interesting…" Nevula comments as Alisa starts to follow in Kamiya's tracks to the restaurant.
"Meanwhile, somewhere over the Pacific Ocean…" The narrator states.
"Say Gunsou, I was going to ask you, but I forgot…" Fuyuki begins as he sits next to Keroro on the plane, "…What's that thing on your head?"
"This is a translator that Kururu gave us, de arimasu!" Keroro chimes as points to the device on his head.
Tamama pokes his head over the seat and looks back at Keroro and Fuyuki. "Yeah! Kururu-sempai even made one for me; just like Gunsou-san's, desu!" Tamama smiles happily as he shows off his translator.
"Does it work?" Fuyuki asks as a question mark appears above his head. "Of-of course, de arimasu!" Keroro states as he turns the dial on the side of the device.
"Say something to me in English, Gunsou!" Fuyuki laughs lightly as he smiles at Keroro. "Okay…let's see…" Keroro thinks to himself out-loud for a moment.
"My name is Sergeant Keroro of the Keron Army, apple pie!" Keroro shouts in English. Almost instantly Fuyuki's face goes completely blank.
"O-old man jokes?" Fuyuki asks with a tone of embarrassment as he sweatdrops big time. "Gunsou-san…" Tamama mutters half-heartedly as a heavy atmosphere hangs over his head.
Keroro quickly turns around and looks over the seat at Kururu. "Kururu! What is going on with this machine, plastic cup?" Keroro shouts angrily as steam shoots out of his head.
"Kukuku…you need to recharge the battery," Kururu snickers as he points to the blinking light on top of the device, "…If you don't recharge it when the light starts flashing; you'll end up speaking broken English or start telling old man jokes; depending upon the amount of charge left."
"That could be a problem…" The narrator states with a tone of dismay as Keroro slinks back into his chair.
"And so, the adventure continues!" The narrator chimes happily as he watches the plane fly over the ocean, "What problems will arise from Kururu's translators? Will Keroro and the others make it to America without any problems? And what will happen in America? Will Alisa find what she's looking for; and will Piroro be able to confess his feelings for her? And will Kamiya and her friends make it to America without bugging the heck out of each other first? Keep watching, everyone!"
