14. Hilda and Stitch 2: The Movie-Part 1

Hey, guys! Welcome to the next chapter for Hilda and Stitch! I hope that you guys will enjoy the chapter! Anyway, before I begin, let me answer two Guest Viewers about Chapters 12 and 13 real quick since I can't PM him/her.

(Now, here's my answer for Chapter 12)

Okay, so first, my stories are usually set in a 'Real World' type scenario, so curse words, guns, and sex is unavoidable, I'm afraid, and, again, the sex was between two consenting adults, and it was something really important to the story and, yeah, Baba would most likely be Hilda's Sister, but what's wrong with them having another child? Especially since Baba would most likely not live with Hilda and the others as she would live with the Trolls. And if Baba does end up living with Hilda, then that's no biggie. All of the Adults, minus Pleakley, have jobs and can most definitely afford the new expenses, so they won't suffer that much, to be honest.

Second, she may have never meant it, but Victoria absolutely had to know the reason why the Weather Spirits showed up and had plenty of time to realize the error of her ways and release the Baby Spirit, but Victoria didn't due to her selfish desire for science. All she cared about was abusing the Weather Spirit Baby for its power, ignoring the fact that because of her actions, Trollberg would've suffered an ice age, and everyone would've died. And even when Hilda fixed the problem, Victoria STILL wanted to play God and mess with forces that she doesn't understand.

Third, Victoria had a gun because she was paranoid that someone would've found out about her project and didn't want to use it, but Victoria was forced to do so since the others wanted to free the Baby Spirit. Fourth, Stitch broke her arm because the woman was threatening to shoot Hilda and actually shot Logan, so that action was warranted to protect everyone. Besides, all he did was break her arm. It will heal. Trust me, Stitch would've done way worst than that, and he was built to destroy planets. Sure, Stitch has changed into a good guy, but it doesn't mean his programming has magically disappeared.

Thanks to Hilda, Stitch merely got aware of his actions and gained empathy, none of which he had for the woman that was threatening to kill his loved ones, but it's not like Stitch actually killed her. Fifth, the Great Raven said that in a more annoyed type of way. Not that he actually hates them. And Sixth, it's not my fault if Young Readers read my story. This story is Rated M for a reason. It's a Parents responsibility to watch out for what their Kids are reading, and I've put in a warning that there was a Lemon in the Storm Episode, so if they ignored that and continued reading, then that was their fault. I can't control who reads my stories. Besides, there are people on this site who have written inappropriate stuff WAY worse than me. Trust me, just read any Loud House Fic, and you would see my point.

(Now here's my answer for the Guest Viewer in Chapter 13)

Well, she freaked out and threw a huge temper tantrum like a 5-year-old for Hilda not finding her book, so, yeah, but in all seriousness, that was more for comedic effect as later in the chapter Frida didn't freak out anymore.

Yeah, I thought of including only the original four, but I decided to add in Frida and David for fun and to later have an understanding of Hilda's sadness for the loss of her father as the adventure had bonded them all deeper. My Woodman is not evil, but he's not afraid to say what's on his mind. The reason why Hilda was more snappy with Woodman than usual is that since she has gotten friends in Trollberg and has changed a bit, Hilda wasn't willing to put up with Woodman's crap lightly anymore and he recognizes this, so Woodman will change his attitude and be a bit nicer

His flying is not as unrealistic as the fact that Stitch can breathe in space just fine but apparently can be drowned or that he literally can't lift anything more than 3,000 times his size. Stitch has more abilities in my story since it feels like Stitch is kind of underpowered. Seriously, compared to his cousins, Stitch is kind of basic. Sure, he's stronger than some of them, but still, it's kind of hard to believe that Stitch was made to destroy planets with such little abilities, so in my story, Stitch has more powers. Besides, Stitch's powers are nothing compared to the other Experiments' Powers. Seriously, how can you create an experiment to cause a tsunami by simply cannonballing it? That is not scientifically possible, but it is since it's a cartoon.

Joanna has more of a fun streak thanks to Roland and the others' interactions. Besides, she has more of a personality than just being the stern/concerned mom. I already said what I said about the being pregnant thing in the last message, so let's move on. Yeah, I didn't have much interaction between Jumba, Pleakley, and the Woodman since I'm planning for them to interact more in the future. No, they didn't cut out his eye, they stabbed it. By the time Hilda and Stitch 2 the Movie happened, it already healed, although the Forest Giant is a bad guy since he kidnapped Hilda (Never mind that Woodman bet her on a Poker Game) even though he knows that she's a living sentient being with feelings like him. Yeah, that's cruel, it's the point. The Cabin is evil and it pulled no punches on Hilda in order to convince her to stay. He, he, yep, and stay tuned because the first part of Hilda and Stitch will be great, and trust me, the stories will fit together perfectly.

That's about it. By the way, I'm not angry about the reviews. Just answering it and stuff. Besides, I love criticism to my stories. It helps me grow as an author and helped me out plenty of times with all of my stories...anyway, I don't own anything, except for my OC'S, and the OCs Roland Trenton and Amun belong entirely to drakin6345, the OCs Logan, Astrid, and Ivy belong to 9655, and the OC Daemon belongs to Travis Moon/Messiah of authors.

NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!

~{Hilda and Stitch 2: Stitch has a Glitch-Part 1}~

~[Stitch's Dream]~

"HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!" Experiment 626 laughed evilly while flying through space in his Stolen Red Police Cruiser as he was back to wearing his Old Alien Red Outfit that was destroyed when Hilda's Cabin was blown up and had his Alien Appendages out as the Furry Blue Alien cheered at the amazing ride before getting distracted by his ship's sensors blaring loudly as he looks down and saw a small hologram of the Earth as the ship zoomed down into the planet and Experiment 626 briefly saw the map of Europe before it zoomed further down into one of the cities in the Northern Region as it shows the city of Trollberg.

"Mega nala kwesta! (I want to destroy!)," Experiment 626 exclaimed with a sly grin while quickly grabbing the ship's controls and immediately dived down into the Earth as he easily breached through the Planet's Atmosphere and took off at the speed of sound as the Powerful Experiment arrived above the Trollberg Forest and spotted various Woffs flying by as well as Jorgen and Valfreyja walking nearby, hand to hand as Experiment 626 flew close to them. "Hello!" Experiment 626 greeted the Woffs and the Giants as they turned to smile at him. "And goodbye!" Experiment 626 shouted mockingly while pressing a button on his ship as a large plasma blaster popped out on the underside of the ship, and, before the Magical Creatures could react, Experiment 626 began raining multiple plasma bolts as he blew apart the Woffs into a billion bloody guts and organs as Jumba's Greatest Creation also blew up Jorgen and Valfreyja's heads.

"HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!" Experiment 626 laughed sinisterly, loving the carnage he was bringing as his ship then flew forward at high speeds and pressed the trigger of his weapon as he began raining multiple large plasmabolts down into the Forest, blowing up various mountains and burning down trees as all of the screaming Elves were vaporized into nothingness, and a panicking Great Raven and an unfazed Woodman was incinerated into a pile of ashes as Experiment 626 finally arrived at Trollberg and began raining hell onto the city as he blew up various buildings and houses, killing hundreds of civilians all at once, including Frida, David, Marcus, Kaisa, Eliza, Debby, Astrid, Ivy, and all of Hilda's Classmates and Sparrow Scout Friends.

"STITCH! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!" A horrified, crying Hilda asked while standing outside of the entrance of her Apartment with her Mum, Roland, Alfur, Jumba, Pleakley, Twig, and Amun standing beside her as they were trying to knock some sense into Stitch before he kills any more people.

"STITCH, PLEASE, STOP!" Roland pleaded.

"YEAH, DON'T YOU REALIZE THE CHAOS AND MAYHEM YOU'RE CAUSING?!" A shocked and scared Alfur exclaimed.

"WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?! I THOUGHT YOU TURNED GOOD, STITCH!" A betrayed-looking Pleakley screamed with a glare.

"626, PLEASE! WHILE I HAVE BUILT YOU TO DESTROY PLANETS, I HAVE SEEN THE ERROR OF MY WAYS, AND I ORDER YOU TO STOP THIS AT ONCE!" Jumba ordered with a glare, completely horrified by his Greatest Creation's path of destruction and death as, while he did build his Experiment to destroy everything he touches, Jumba never knew what a true monster Stitch was until now and feels deep regret and sadness by what Stitch has done.

"I KNEW THAT HE WAS ALWAYS A MONSTER! I SHOULD'VE NEVER ALLOWED HIM TO HANG AROUND MY DAUGHTER AND BECOME PART OF OUR FAMILY!" A furious Joanna screamed while glaring up at Experiment 626, who narrowed his eyes down at her angrily before grinning maliciously as an idea popped into his head and Experiment 626 was quick to dive down towards the group as Hilda, and the others gasped in shock as they ran forward just as Experiment 626 collided his ship against the Apartment and a huge explosion rang out that blew up not only Hilda's Apartment but all of the other apartments around it.

"Ugh...ow..." A heavily injured Hilda says while moaning in pain as she shakily sat up from the ground with half of her hair burnt off and half of her face was covered with second degrees burns as her clothes were tattered and burnt as a bloodied Hilda glanced down at her arms and screams in surprise as she saw that three of her fingers was blown off and squirting out blood as, if that wasn't bad enough, a horrified Hilda's eyes widened widely at the sight of what seems to be a mangled mess of blood, bones, and organs that seemed to previously be her Mum and her Boyfriend, Roland, as they were crushed to death by a giant piece of debris and a panting Hilda crawled away from that as she looks to be close to having a panic attack, but was distracted by a pair of groans as Hilda turned her head and spotted Jumba and Pleakley lying across the ground near her with their bodies covered in bruises and blood as Pleakley's right arm and two of his legs was broken as Jumba had a large pipe stabbed through his chest and was losing a lot of blood as half of his face was burnt with 3rd degrees burn.

"A-Alfur? T-Twig? A-Amun?" A scared Hilda asked with a small whimper while looking around as she choked back a sob at the sight of Twig's burnt-up collar lying on the ground as well as Alfur's cut-up and burnt shirt and a few of Amun's feathers lying around as tears ran down Hilda's eyes and the Blue-Haired Girl started crying as a familiar growl rang out and Hilda, Jumba, and Pleakley turned their heads as they spotted a green-eyed Stitch emerging from the burning remains of Hilda's Apartment, looking like a demon from hell as he hissed loudly and leaped forward.

"6-626, please, no AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Jumba pleaded nervously before screaming in absolute pain as Experiment 626 collided against him and tackled him down to the ground as he pulled out the large pipe from out of his chest and began whacking it across his Creator's face, flattened it into a bloody paste and crushing his skull as Experiment 626 then tossed away his pipe and grabs Jumba's head as he ripped it out of his body and laughed maniacally as 626 was covered in his Creator's blood.

"Ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod!" Pleakley shouted panickedly while crying in fear as he tried to crawl his way over to Hilda and try to take her to safety, only for a laughing Experiment 626 to make his way over to land on his back and grabs his antenna as he began slamming his head into the ground so hard that it resembled more like a bloody pizza and 626 proceeds to grabs Pleakley's eye and ripped it out of his head, causing the Octopus-like Alien to scream in agony as a roaring Experiment 626 began raining down multiple strong and fast punches down at Pleakley's head, caving his head and staining his fists with blood as Pleakley had long died, but 626 didn't care as he continued punching down at Pleakley's corpse.

"Stop it, Stitch! He's already dead! Please stop!" Hilda screamed while running over to grab one of her former friend's arms in a pathetic attempt to try and stop him, only to fail as a snarling Experiment 626 whirled around to slash across Hilda's face, sending her crashing down into the ground with a pained scream as the Blue-Haired Girl saw a reflection of her face on a nearby puddle and gasped in shock at the sight of the four claw marks across her left eye as Hilda covered her face and sobbed.

"STITCH! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, YOU ALIEN BASTARD!" A Pair Of Familiar Angry Male Voices Rang Out as Hilda and Experiment 626 glanced up as they spotted a furious Daemon flying down towards them with Nero flying beside him as Logan could be seen flying above them in the form of a large black dragon and a grinning Experiment 626 cracked his knuckles as he then ran forward, leaving behind Hilda as the scared little girl raised her hand in horror.

"NO! STITCH! STOP! PLEASE! DON'T KILL THEM!" Hilda pleaded with teary eyes as Experiment 626 briefly stopped his running and turned around to give her an evil smile as he then turned back and ran towards the flying duo to kill them, not noticing that Hilda's form briefly frizzled in and out of reality as we saw a glimpse of what seems to be a Blonde-Haired Teenager with glowing pupilless eyes and a sinister grin on her face as Experiment 626 was completely oblivious to this and simply ran faster as he then leaped up into the air and headed straight towards a glaring Logan and Daemon as he raised his fist, but then paused a bit as Hilda's Voice Rang Out.

"Stitch, wake up! Wake up, please! Wake up!"

~[Stitch's Dream Over]~

"Come on, Stitch, wake up! Please!" A 12-year-old Hilda pleaded while shaking a sleeping Stitch as he could be seen resting on the Lower Bed of their Bunk Bed, and, after shaking him a bit, Experiment 626 finally woke up from his nightmare with his eyes briefly glowing a misty green before they returned back into their regular color as Stitch gasped in shock and swiftly crawled up to the underside of Hilda's Upper Bed as he looked around nervously while panting heavily as Jumba's Greatest Creation was momentarily confused on where he was before remembering that a month ago Joanna had bought a Bunk Bed for Hilda and Stitch to use in their room since she feels bad that Stitch either sleeps on Hilda's Original Bed like a dog or slept with Twig in his Doggy Bed.

Hilda has grown up a bit from the past year as she was now 4'2-feet-tall and 12-years-old as she had her long natural long blue hair tied up into two low-hanging pigtails, and was currently wearing her usual pajamas, which consisted of a long-sleeved white shirt with a dark blue collar/cuffs, long blue pants, and no shoes. With Stitch...he didn't change much physically, obviously, but was now wearing his new Pajamas, which consisted of a light blue nightcap and a long-sleeved light blue nightgown that reaches down to his feet.

"It's alright, don't worry, Stitch. I'm here." Hilda says soothingly while crawling up onto the bed and reaching up to grab a shaking Stitch by his waist as she grunted and pulled with all of her might as Hilda was able to yank her Best Friend off from the underside of her bed with him accidentally ripping off a few pieces of wood, but the Blue-Haired Girl didn't care at the moment as she hugged Stitch and rubbed his head reassuringly. "It's just a dream, Stitch. Nothing is going on. You're safe now." Hilda says as Stitch panted heavily but slowly calmed down thanks to his Friend's comforting words as Hilda kissed his forehead. "It was another nightmare, wasn't it?"

"I-Ih," Stitch says with a shaky nod.

"Man, by all of that yelling you did, it must've been a pretty bad one, huh?" A worried Hilda asked as Stitch lowered his head somberly and nodded with a groan.

"Basa sota, Hils (You have no idea, Hils)," Stitch says with a pout.

"Well, come on, step into my office, and tell me all about it." Hilda says as Stitch nods, and the duo jumped off from 626's bed as they used their Bunk Bed's Ladder to climb up into Hilda's Bed as the Blue-Haired Girl gestured at Stitch to lay down and he did as Hilda then pulled out a clipboard and a pen as she coughed a couple of times. "Okay, start at the beginning and remember to not neglect anything that happened in your dream," Hilda says as Stitch nodded and clasped his hands on top of his lap as he sighs.

"Well, youga see ht dem solok ffo hik meega flolulo foo ni hat Gougo Der Cruso hat meega stokren morf het Galactic Federation Ship hufro Deck nad meega saw kak ot meukio hat kaka aien porekio hat meega uso ot rewer whenga weega thirst tem.

Anyway, I was flying above Earth, right? And then I decided to fly down into the Planet and arrived in Trollberg as I began blasting everything I saw. The Forest, Buildings, Houses, etc. And then, when I arrived at the Apartment, I-)," Stitch narrated while making a lot of blasting poses and making fake explosion noises with his mouth as, when he got to the part of the story where he killed his loved ones, 626 suddenly paused and stood up from the bed as he crawled over to hide behind Hilda's Pillow. "T-That's it no more."

"Are you sure?" Hilda asked while writing down on her clipboard as Stitch nodded hesitantly and looked away guiltily as Hilda raised an eyebrow at him suspiciously but didn't say anything as she nodded. "Okay, so, while I'm not a professional therapist, it's clearly obvious that by what you said, you're afraid of turning bad again, right?" Hilda asked while showing Stitch the drawing she did on her clipboard as he saw various drawings of him rampaging across the City of Trollberg.

"Ih. Stitch am afraid of turning evil." Stitch answered truthfully while clasping his hands together nervously. "Good drawings, by the way. Stitch didn't know Hilda can draw."

"Oh, yeah, I can. It's something that has been established in the first episode of my show but was weirdly not brought back ever again. Vgn is trying to bring it back for me in his story, I suppose." Hilda answered with a shrug while crawling over to sit down beside Stitch. "Anyway, back to the subject of your nightmares, I think there's a reason as to why you keep having them for the past two months. You see, it's because we're nearing our Friendship Anniversary."

"A whata?" A confused Stitch asked while tilting his head cutely as a giggling Hilda was quick to explain.

"Well, you see, Stitch, a full year has passed since we first met, and next month, we will be celebrating the day we became friends and family, but here's the thing, since you've been good for a full year, you're scared of one day reverting back to your original programming and becoming a Monster again." Hilda theorized, causing Stitch to cover his mouth in shock as he whimpered.

"How Stitch fix this?"

"Well, don't worry about that because all we have to do is to cheer you up and remind you of how much you have changed over the past year by testing out your Goodness Level." A smiling Hilda says while doing another quick drawing on her clipboard as she then handed the clipboard over to Stitch, who was surprised to see that Hilda had recreated that Goodness/Badness Drawing that she had made of him when they first met a year ago.

"How we do that?" Stitch asked curiously as Hilda smirked and stood up on her bed as she made her way over to climb down the Bunk Bed's Ladder and leaped onto the ground with a small grunt.

"By doing a few tests. For example, you see this?" Hilda asked rhetorically while walking over to her drawer cabinet as she opened it and rummaged through her drawer to pull out a small brown sack. "This bag is filled with the Dragon Teeth that Mr. Trenton had given me during the Bird Parade. These are extremely valuable to me and only someone bad...WOULD LET THEM BE SMASHED AGAINST THAT WALL!" Hilda suddenly screamed while tossing the little bag forward with all of her strength as Stitch gasped worriedly and jumped off from the bunk bed as he landed on the ground before dashing forward as the sack was about to collide against the wall, but thankfully, Experiment 626 was fast enough to run over and jump up to grab the sack filled with Dragon Teeth as he then placed it down into the ground gently.

"Or let my favorite book, the Grand History of Trolls, which was given to me by my Father when I was only 6 and is one of the few things that I have that was left by him...FALL DOWN INSIDE THIS RANDOM PAPER SHREDDER AND BE RIPPED TO PIECES AND LOST FOREVER!" Hilda shouted while standing near a black paper shredder as she was holding her favorite book 'The History of Trolls' and hovered it above the paper shredder as she casually lets go of her book, and it fell down through the air as it was about to collide against the paper shredder, but a panicking Stitch ran over to leap up and snatch the book in mid-air as he landed on the ground and placed the book down on the floor gently as Experiment 626 turned his head and gasped in disbelief/horror as he spotted his Best Friend suddenly standing near the Bedroom Window.

"Or let his Best Friend and Family Member...DROP DOWN TO HER PAINFUL CRUSHING DEATH!" Hilda screamed while closing her eyes and crossing her arms together as, without hesitation, she basically tossed herself through the window and started falling down through the air as a fiercely scared and concerned Stitch ran ahead as he jumps through the window, and, while he was free-falling, Experiment 626 was able to reach the closed-eyed, unafraid Blue-Haired Girl as he grabs her by her waist and then wrapped his ears together as the Furry Blue Experiment spins them around rapidly with his tied up ears resembling a helicopter blade as the duo flew up into the air.

"...WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" A stunned 39-year-old Logan asked while dropping his phone as he didn't change much physically, and neither has his clothes changed. "OH, HELL NO!" Logan screamed angrily/concernedly while deciding to cut his conversation with his Girlfriend short as he bends down to grab his phone before bolting into the Apartment. Anyway, back with the Adventurous Duo, we see Stitch flying them back up into his and Hilda's Shared Room as they flew through the opened window and landed on the ground as a smiling Hilda turned over to a panting/shaking Stitch.

"See? Look at all of the good things you did," Hilda stated cheerfully, unfazed by the fact of how close she was to dying as, after Stitch sets her down on the ground, the Furry Blue Alien proceeded to crash down into the ground with a groan and clutched his nonexistent beating heart as Hilda rubs his head affectionately and walked over to grab her clipboard as she colors up Stitch's Drawing.

"My prognosis is that your Goodness Level is still up and running, and you don't have anything to fear about becoming bad again," Hilda says while walking back to a panting Stitch and showing him her Goodness Drawing of him again, but this time was colored completely blue, signifying how good he was as Hilda handed the drawing to her Best Friend. "Nothing to worry about," Hilda says while bending down to kiss Stitch's head as he glanced down at the drawing in shock before putting on a small smile, feeling cheered up by what his Friend did as the Duo stood up from the floor and Stitch was quick to give Hilda a hug.

"Thanks, Hilda. Stitch feel better now."

"You're welcome, Stitch," Hilda says while rubbing his head affectionately again as she was about to say something but was cut off by her door slamming open as a nervous yet concerned Logan ran into the room.

"Hilda! Are you okay?! What happened!? Why were you tossed out of the window like that?!" Logan asked frantically while running over to bend down to Hilda's eye level as the Blue-Haired Girl gave him a reassuring look.

"Oh, don't worry, Cus, Stitch had one of his nightmares again, so being the good friend that I am, I've decided to try and show him how much he has changed by tossing myself out of the window on purpose to test Stitch's Goodness Level, and I can safely say that he passed it with flying colors." Hilda says while giving Stitch a wink and a proud smile as Logan stared at her quietly for a few seconds, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath...before suddenly slapping Hilda in the back of her head as he glared at her comically with flames in his eyes.

"DON'T JUST TOSS YOURSELF OUT OF THE WINDOW LIKE THAT, HILDA?! DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT WAS!? IF STITCH WASN'T THERE TO CAPTURE YOU, YOU WOULD'VE-,"

"Hilda! Stitch! You two are going to be late for your Sparrow Scout Meeting!" Joanna and Roland's Voice Rang Out From Outside as an alarmed Hilda and Stitch gasped in shock.

"Oh, right! I forgot that we had a Sparrow Scout Meeting today, and look how late it is! We have to get ready quickly!" A panicking Hilda screamed after noticing the time on her alarm clock as she then turned to her cousin. "Logan, do you mind lecturing me another time?" Hilda asked urgently while bouncing on her steps impatiently as Logan sighed heavily, but nodded as the Blue-Haired Girl nodded at him gratefully before turning around to swiftly run into her Closet to get changed as Stitch was about to follow after her but paused as he felt something rumbling deep inside him, usually where his Power Cell Resides as his eyes glowed green and Experiment 626 twitched madly and crashed down into the floor as he groaned and sat up from the ground as Stitch noticed that his nightcap was blown off due to him accidentally spawning his alien antennas.

"What was that? You okay, Stitch?" Logan asked worriedly as a confused Stitch looked around before glancing up at the Shape-Shifting Mutant as he shrugged.

"Don't know, but Stitch alright," Stitch says calmly, thinking that it was either Alfur or Astrid playing a prank on him as Logan pursed his lips suspiciously but wasn't able to say anything due to Hilda calling out for Stitch from the closet to get ready as Experiment 626 stood up from the floor while hiding away his antennas as he then ran into the closet.

"Ugh, these two always give me a headache," Logan says while shaking his head with a sigh as he turned around to leave the room, but unknown to everyone in the room, the Blonde-Haired Teenager from Experiment 626's Dream could be seen spying on the trio through the opened window as she giggled maliciously before her body broke apart into a bunch of spectral green energy as she flew off.

"Hurry up, you two!" Joanna screamed while turning her head to glare in the direction of Hilda and Stitch's Room as we see her and Roland cleaning up the dishes in the Kitchen, and Jumba and Pleakley were sitting around in the Dining Room Table, eating their breakfast as Alfur and Astrid were eating together in the windowsill from where a small table was placed for them as Twig and Ivy were nuzzling with each other on the couch as Amun was sitting beside them, watching TV.

"What's taking them so long?" A 39-year-old Roland asked curiously with a glare as his physical appearance and clothes didn't change much over the year, except that he was wearing a long-sleeved red jacket over his blue-collard shirt. "I don't know about Stitch, but Hilda usually doesn't sleep in."

"Oh, that's because Stitch was apparently having his nightmares again, so Hilda was busy trying to comfort him...in her own weird and dangerous way," Logan says with a glare while walking onto the scene as he had decided to keep what happened to himself to not give his Cousin a heart attack so early in the morning.

"Oh, well, that's good and all, but still, we can't let them be late for their Sparrow Scout Meeting. This one is really important." A 31-year-old Joanna says with a serious look on her face as her long light auburn hair had grown out a bit and now reaches down to her back with a large bang that covered her eyes lightly as she was now wearing a long-sleeved yellow jacket that reaches down to her waist with a sleeveless cranberry red top underneath, long black jeans, and white shoes. "Anyway, guys, I was wondering if you could help out today, please, because, after Hilda and Stitch's Sparrow Scout Meeting and buying some camping supplies, I was planning to prepare a big feast for our Family Movie Night and I also want the Apartment Cleaned."

"Sure, I would be happy to help, Babe," Roland says while leaning over to give her a reassuring kiss on Joanna's cheek as she smiled at this with a blush.

"Don't worry, Cus. I will call up Kaisa and Marcus, and we will be more than happy to help you," Logan says with a warm smile.

"Oh, thanks, Logan." A grateful Joanna says as she then turned to Jumba and the others. "How about you guys? Think you can help?"

"Oh, sorry, but I can't. Jumba has a very important science project that I've been working on for a full year now." A 501-year-old Jumba says haughtily while slurping up his oatmeal as he was wearing his Casual Earth Clothes.

"You mean those crop circles that you've been doing?" Logan asked him amusedly as Jumba flinched and sweated nervously as Joanna turned to glare at him sternly.

"Wait, that was you?! Do you have any idea how much panic you've caused over the past few weeks!?"

"Thanks a lot, Shape-Shifting Man," Jumba grumbles while glaring over at Logan, who gave him a cheeky grin as their Apartment Door was opened, and everyone turned their heads as they were surprised to see Helper-X9 from the Troll Rock Chapter walking into the room.

"Hello, Master, I'm back, and I was able to recover the power sources you wanted me to get," Helper-X9 says while tapping his chest as he hid the power sources inside of him.

"Wait...is that Helper-X9 Robot? I haven't seen that thing in months. I thought you threw it away." A surprised Roland says as Jumba shakes his head.

"Oh, Jumba didn't throw it away. Jumba had Helper-X9 go out on a top secret important mission to sample a few power sources across the whole world for me. It's part of my big secret year-long science experiment that Jumba has been working on."

"And you care to explain what the experiment is?" A curious 26-year-old Alfur asked as he didn't really change much over the past year and basically looks the same.

"Can't say. Spoilers," Jumba says with a serious expression on his face as Alfur blinked a couple of times in surprise.

"Oh, okay, then...also, Joanna, Pleakley, and I won't be able to help you out with the Movie Night today," Alfur says as Pleakley nodded.

"Yeah, we have a busy day of group researching about Trollberg and Humanity ahead of us." A 31-year-old Pleakley says with a sharp nod while reading from a newspaper as he was wearing his Casual Earth Clothes.

"You mean watching trashy talk shows and reading gossip magazines?" A deadpan Joanna asked as Pleakley nodded.

"Yeah, it takes a lot out of you."

"Amen, Brother," Alfur says as 25-year-old Astrid, who hasn't changed much at all physically like Alfur, turned to Joanna.

"As for me...I honestly don't give enough shit to help out." Astrid says bluntly, causing a large thick mark to appear on her head as, before Joanna could snap at her, Hilda and Stitch suddenly ran out of their room and made their way over to the Light Long Auburn-Haired Woman while wearing their Sparrow Scout Uniforms.

"Mum, since we're late for our Sparrow Scout Meeting, can we please take the Hovercraft today?" Hilda asked eagerly as she and Stitch bounced up and down excitedly.

"No, guys, you know that I think it's too dangerous. What if someone sees you two? You two could blow Stitch and the others' Secret Identities." A stern Joanna says concernedly.

"No worries. Hilda and Stitch turn on the camouflage feature. Nobody would be able to see us." Stitch says while waving his hand around reassuringly as Joanna pursed her lips and hummed thoughtfully before grinning slyly as she nodded.

"Alright, you can take the Hovercraft if you can find it," Joanna says as Hilda and Stitch beam as they hugged her in gratitude before turning around to leave the room as an anxious Roland turned to her.

"Are you sure that was the smart thing to do?" Roland asked as Joanna turned to him with a cocky smirk on her face.

"Don't worry, baby, I hid it so well this time that they will never-,"

"They found it," A non-surprised Logan stated bluntly while pointing out the window as Joanna and the others were surprised to see a grinning Hilda and Stitch floating up in the air while riding around in what seemed to be a large spacecraft big enough to carry the both of them and their friends as it was colored bright red and had a large blue stripe going down the middle as it also has yellow headlights and dual pair of small red jet thrusters that were both emitting a small blue flame.

"THANKS, MUM/JOANNA!" Hilda and Stitch screamed to a stunned Joanna before they had the top half of the spacecraft closed up as they turned on the Hovercraft's camouflage abilities and turned invisible as the Duo flew off into the air.

"So much for finding a good place to hide it," Astrid says teasingly with Logan and the others laughing a bit as Joanna groaned loudly and facepalmed as she then turned to glare at Jumba.

"This is your fault, you know. Why on Earth would you build a Spacecraft for the kids?" Joanna demanded as Jumba shrugged.

"Hey, they asked me to build a Hovercraft, and I did. Just be lucky that they don't want to fly Pleakley and Jumba's Ship anymore." Jumba says before causally going back to eating his Breakfast as Joanna groaned again and lowered her head with a tired sigh, knowing that she will need to find another hiding spot for Hilda and Stitch's Hovercraft as Roland patted her back to comfort her.

There's no place I'd rather be

Then on my surfboard out at sea

Flying upwards at high speeds, the Adventurous Duo laughed joyfully as a determined Hilda then gripped the controls of their Hovercraft tightly and had the ship do a couple of loop-de-loops before the Small Spaceship took off into the air at ridiculous speeds as they soon arrived at the Trollberg Woods and Hilda and Stitch flew up into the air so high that they were basically flying through the white clouds. Looking around, Hilda and Stitch gasped in amazement as they noticed that they were flying between what seemed to be a flock of Woffs and an excited Stitch was quick to press a button on the dashboard as the roof of their Hovercraft opened up, and Experiment 626 was quick to take out a camera as he takes a picture of a Woff, blinding it as it got so distracted that it nearly lost control of his flight and an embarrassed Stitch mumbled a quick apology to the Magical Creature as Hilda giggled amusedly before the Duo flew off as the Woof regained his senses and continued flying with his flock.

Lingering in the ocean blue

And If I had one wish come true

Diving down through the air, a smirking Hilda then had the Hovercraft do a quick U-Turn before it blasted off into the air as the Duo soared through the skies and cheered loudly as they flew past the Forest Giant, who flinched and cowered behind his giant tree to hide from them as, much to the surprise of Hilda and Stitch, a whole flock of Thunderbirds appeared out of nowhere and flew past them as one of them was their friend the Great Raven, who waved at them gleefully as Hilda and Stitch waved back at him before diving down further into the air as they neared a river, but the Blue-Haired Girl was able to pull up the Hovercraft fast enough before they collided against the river as they created a big slash and Hilda and Stitch laughed amusedly as, unknown to them, the Twelve-year-old Girl and Experiment 626 flew past a nearby Cave planted on the side of a mountain that contained what seems to be a Troll Mother and her Child as they stared at her in shock, but made sure to stay deep inside the dark cave so as to not be turned into stone by the sun.

I'd surf till the sun sets

Beyond the horizon

Appearing near Jumba and Pleakley's Ship and the old destroyed remains of Hilda's Cabin, Hilda and Stitch glanced down at the Nothern Elf County as they waved at all of the Elves below and they waved back at them eagerly as the Mayor and the Prime Minister, who had decided to take a short visit to the village, can be seen having lunch together as they spotted the Adventurous Duo and waved at them friendly as the Mayor's Cat Angelina and her almost grown Nittens can be seen playing around with Woodman as they waved at Hilda and Stitch as well.

Pressing a button on the dashboard, the top of the Hovercraft closed up as a now fully invisible Hilda and Stitch flew forward at top speeds and appeared back in Trollberg as they flew past a wall from where the Bragga Family could be seen residing in their Village and swiftly made their way through the city as Hilda and Stitch arrived at Trollberg Harbor. Turning to each other to share a mischievous grin, a laughing Hilda and Stitch then dived themselves deep down into the ocean as they saw various Fishes, Dolphins, and Sharks swimming by and the Adventurous Duo then resurfaced as they hovered above the water before suddenly diving down into the water to stare at the ocean life as they soon resurfaced and, after repeating this process over and over again, Hilda and Stitch then resurfaced as they flew past the little Island from where the Lindworm resides in and flew off back into the city.

Cheering loudly, Hilda and Stitch flew through the city of Trollberg at high speeds as they flew past Nigel and the Vittras, who had popped themselves out of the ground to steal some food as the Rat King suddenly peeked through the sewer drain for some juicy secret and a group of Teenage Marras were making their way through the town as they looked around and glared at a couple of adults with their eyes glowing a sinister green as, after making sure that nobody was looking at them, the Marras all transformed into a burst of multiple green spectral energy and flew out of sight.

Doing a loop-de-loop between two buildings, the Adventures Duo flew past Hilda's School as Enid and Augustus could be seen talking to a bunch of Students as Hilda and Stitch flew past the Trollberg Library as a grinning Marcus was scaring various people with his Shape-Shifting Powers as an annoyed Kaisa was forced to use her Magic to erase the memories of the people that her Son had scared and exposed himself to as Kaisa then latches onto Marcus's ear and drags him back into the Library to properly punish him.

Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride

Twirling around in the air multiple times, Hilda and Stitch turned to share a high five as they then threw up their arms and cheered loudly, enjoying their ride as, unknown to them, an Old Woman Wearing A Lab Coat could be seen walking down the sidewalk and looks around nervously as Hilda and Stitch decided to have fun flying around Trollberg for a bit before they go to their Sparrow Scout Meeting.

~{Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride Song Over}~

"Man, where are they?" A worried Frida asked while tapping her foot impatiently as we cue over to the Sparrow Scout Meeting Hall and see the whole Sparrow Scout Group as well as their Parents inside of the building, waiting for the meeting to begin as Frida was standing with David as their Parents were currently talking with Joanna, Roland, and Logan as Jumba and Pleakley were unable to come due to being busy with their respective work. "I mean, how is it possible that Hilda's Mum and the others were able to show up but not them?" Frida asked indignantly while crossing her arms and biting her lip as the Young Girl was now 4'4-feet-tall and 12-years-old as she was wearing her Sparrow Scout Uniform and had her long dark brown hair hanging freely as it reaches down to her waist.

"Hilda and Stitch most likely took the Hovercraft this morning," David says with a shrug as he was now 12-years-old but didn't grow much this year, nor has he changed physically as David was currently wearing his Sparrow Scout Uniform. "You know how much they love that thing." David reminded as Frida sighs heavily but nodded as the doors were suddenly flung open, and Hilda and Stitch ran in as they panted heavily.

"There you two are. Where have you been? You two almost missed the meeting." Frida scolded as a sheepish Hilda grinned at her awkwardly.

"Yeah, sorry about being so late. Stitch and I had a little bit too much fun with the Hovercraft but we're here now."

"Did we miss anything?" Stitch asked curiously while making sure to whisper to the others so that no one would freak out that he was talking as David shakes his head with a reassuring smile.

"Nah, don't worry, you two are just in time. Sparrow Scout Master Debby hasn't started the meeting yet."

"Sparrow Scouts! Sparrow Scouts!" Debby screamed, getting everyone's attention as Hilda and the others made their way over to stand in front of their Sparrow Scout Master obediently. "As I'm sure none of you need reminding, but in just a week, we will be holding the Sparrow Scout Badge Ceremony where, of course, we'll invite all of your Parents to join in on celebrating your achievements as you are awarded the badges you've worked so hard towards over the past year," Debby says with a smile as Joanna and the other parents smiled at their Kids proudly.

"Man, I'm glad that we're in this together, guys. It would look pretty bad if I was the only one who didn't have any badges." Hilda says with an anxious smile while talking to her friends as Stitch nods in agreement, but David and Frida, however, gave their Blue-Haired Friend a weird, confused look.

"Uh, what are you talking about, Hils? I've earned lots of badges. Even more so than last year, I might add." Frida says with a smug grin as David nodded.

"Yeah, even I had earned some badges, and that's saying something."

"Gaba (Really?)," A surprised Stitch asked as Hilda looked equally surprised.

"When did you guys find the time to earn badges? We hung around a lot with each other throughout the year."

"Well, David and I had been earning our Sparrow Scout Badges whenever we did not hang out. What have you and Stitch been doing in your Free Time?" Frida asked with a raised eyebrow while placing her hands on her hips as David nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, what have you two been doing to not have the time to earn badges?" David asked incredulously as Hilda and Stitch shared a nervous look as we suddenly see a small montage of Hilda and Stitch goofing off with each other, like the one time that Hilda was riding around in a shopping cart, and Stitch was pushing her as they were speeding around Trollberg like an out of control speed demon. Another scene showed Hilda and Stitch eating a lot of spicy food in the Kitchen as they were doing the Spicy Food Challenge and, obviously, Hilda failed the challenge quickly as she was running around panickedly while screaming out a stream of intense fire from out of her mouth.

Another scene showed Stitch crawling up the side of the most giant building in Trollberg while holding Hilda with his extra arms as they reached the top of the building before leaping off the roof as the Adventurous Duo began free-falling through the air while laughing loudly as they shared a smile. Another scene showed a giggling Hilda and Stitch standing in front of Eliza Home's Doorstep as they placed down a bag filled with poop and Stitch lit it on fire as the Duo then rang the doorbell before running over to hide behind a bush as a bored-looking Eliza opened the door and glanced down as she shrieked at the sight of the flaming bag of poop and tried to stomp out the flames, but ended up with a poop covered shows as Eliza screeched in disgust and Hilda and Stitch shared a laugh and a high five. The final scene showed Hilda, Stitch, Jumba, and Pleakley staying alone in the Apartment with said Apartment being covered with water and soap as they were having some kind of foam party, and the gang could be seen laughing joyfully as they leaped in and out of the large mass of white foam.

"Errrr, nothing important," Hilda says as she and Stitch smile at their Friends awkwardly as Logan eyed the group from the background but didn't say anything as he continued conversing with Joanna and Roland.

"Ha, ha, ha, of course, the Little Magic Freak hasn't earned a Badge. Maybe if she wasn't so much of a slacker, she would've earned at least one badge." A smirking 12-year-old Eliza says while sneering at Hilda tauntingly as the gang glared at her but didn't say anything since Debbie was still talking.

"But, anyway, I'm happy to announce..." Debbie trails off while glancing down at the Little Arab Girl wearing a light pink Keffiyeh as she was wearing a drum set around her chest and began drumming it a bit to add some dramatic effect. "...The End-Of-Year Weekend Camping Trip!" Debbie exclaimed with all of the Sparrow Scouts cheering excitedly at this as she smiled down at the Kids. "And with it, the opportunity to earn the Coveted Camping Badge," Debbie says while holding up a badge that had a fireplace symbol stitched into it as David beamed at the sight of it.

"Ooh, I've always wanted that one!"

"Me too...since today," Hilda stated cheerfully as Stitch turned to Frida.

"What about you, Frida? Want to earn that Badge?" Stitch asked as Frida shrugged indifferently.

"Eh, I've already won that Badge three years in a row. I don't really want another one, so if you guys want that Badge, I would gladly-,"

"OH, THANK GOD!" Hilda, David, and all of the other eavesdropping Sparrow Scouts exclaimed in relief while mentally cheering that one of them might finally win the Coveted Camping Badge this year as Frida stared at them unamusedly with a massive sweatdrop on her head.

"So, everyone better get prepared for the Camping Trip tomorrow because we're going to have the greatest three day camping trip of your lives. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to set up the Presentation on how to Camp Safely. Be right back in a few minutes." Debbie says while turning around to walk away as the Arab Girl followed after her.

"Oh, Hilda, I can't wait for your Badge Ceremony." An ecstatic Joanna says as she, Roland, and Logan made their way over to Hilda and Stitch while Frida and David walked off to talk to their Respective Parents.

"Yeah, it's great to see that you've finally concluded your first year as a Sparrow Scout, Cus," Logan says with a warm smile as he rubbed Hilda's hair and Roland went over to bend down to her height as he wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"We just want you to know that we're really proud of you, Hilda."

"He's right, sweetie, you've worked really hard to earn those Badges, and I'm sure that you've earned a lot of badges over the year, like me and your Cousin, right?" Joanna asked with a smirk as Hilda winced at what she said and glances down at the ground nervously as she bit her lip.

"W-Well, uh, about that, guys-,"

"Oh, man, if only Martin was alive now. He would be just as proud as I am right now." Joanna gushed while walking over to bend down to Hilda's height as she gave her a half hug and kissed her cheek. "He, he, you're really following in your Family's Footsteps. Not only did your Cousin and I had earned the most badges out of our respective sections, but your Dad did too."

"R-Really?" A shocked Hilda asked as Joanna nodded with a smirk.

"Yep, he loved the Sparrow Scouts as much as we did, so you can imagine how his reaction would be when his pride and joy steps onto that stage a week from now and accepts her award in the Badge Ceremony." Joanna says while hugging Hilda as the Blue-Haired Girl had a guilty look on her face and shared a look with Stitch, who gave her a sympathetic frown as an oblivious Joanna then lets go of her Daughter just as Debby appeared as she put up the presentation on Camp Safety for everyone to see.

An hour later, we see Hilda and Stitch waiting patiently in front of the Sparrow Scout Meeting Hall Building as Joanna and the others had walked off to find the car as the Eleven-Year-Old Girl was thankful for the small distraction due to feeling sad and remorseful from not earning a single Sparrow Scout Badge all year as Hilda didn't know what to tell her Family without disappointing them as Stitch walked over to hug his Best Friend's sides, providing her with some comfort as she smiled at him in gratitude, but then frown in annoyance as an annoying, British Female Voice Rang Out.

"Hey, Hilda, when the Badge Ceremony happens, can you be a dear and try not to cry all over me when Raven Leader Debbie tells everyone how many more badges I've gained over the year than you? I want to look good for the photos that my Mum will take of me...although a photo of you crying because you were not able to earn a single badge would be a great screen saver for me." Eliza says hauntingly while walking out of the building as she leans against the doorframe with a smug expression on her face.

"Go away, Eliza. I'm not in the mood to deal with you." Hilda says with a glare while huffing at her as she and Stitch then turned around to ignore her, which infuriated Eliza as she walked towards them.

"Well, I just want you to know that you won't win that Coveted Camping Badge. I've been aiming to win that badge for years and I won't let you get your little commoner hands on it." Eliza says with a scowl before calming down as she then smirked at her mockingly. "I mean, not that you can win it to begin with."

"What's that supposed to mean?" An irritated Hilda says as she and Stitch turned to the Blonde-Haired Little Girl.

"I mean, isn't it obvious...whatever your last name is? You haven't earned a SINGLE Badge throughout the whole year. Even that loser friend of yours, David, was able to win some and he sucks. This just shows how much of a horrible Sparrow Scout you are." Eliza says with a laugh as a pissed-off Hilda clenched her fist and was about to make her way over to throttle her, but was stopped by Stitch as he grabs her arm and shakes his head in a way that says 'No, Hilda, trust me, that bitch ain't worth it'. "Man, I can't imagine how disappointed your Dorky Father would be if he found out how much of a failure you are. If he was alive, I bet he would disown you and want me as his Daughter since I am perfect, after all." Eliza says arrogantly while checking her nails as the Adventurous Duo gasps in shock at her harsh words before the Blue-Haired Girl turned over to glare at Experiment 626 as he lets go of her arm.

"Okay, go beat her up," Stitch says while raising his hands in surrender as Hilda turned towards Eliza and took off her brown beanie as well as her empty sash.

"Okay, that's it!" Hilda screamed furiously while running over to a surprised Eliza as a grinning Stich pulled out his camera.

"Smile!" Stitch shouted while raising his camera as he began taking various pictures of the Girls, which consisted of One Photo being Hilda tackling a grunting Eliza to the floor, the Second Photo was Hilda raining down multiple strong and fast punches at Eliza's bruised-up face, the Third Photo was Eliza being able to catch her wind and delivered a might palm strike that threw off a shocked Hilda off her body, the Fourth Photo was a glaring Eliza trying to tackle Hilda to the floor but was kicked away by the Blue-Haired Girl, and the Fifth Photo was Eliza being sent flying into the Sparrow Scout Meeting Hall as an angry Hilda chases after her, and a smiling Stitch could be seen photobombing the final picture as he threw up a peace sign.

---

"So explain to me again, how did you get your injuries?" Roland asked concernedly as we fast forward in time and see the Gang residing in the Trollberg Shopping Center as Joanna was pushing along a shopping cart with Stitch riding around in it, and Logan walking alongside them as Roland could be seen talking with Hilda, whose clothes were ruffled, and tattered as she also had a white bandage on her left cheek.

"Oh, I fell down a flight of stairs," Hilda says while shifting her eyes around nervously as she and Stitch were still wearing their Sparrow Scout Uniforms since they weren't able to change their clothes yet.

"Uh huh, and what about Eliza?" Roland asked with a suspiciously raised eyebrow as, when he went over to pick up Hilda and Stitch, the Young Blonde-Haired Man was surprised to see the Duo sitting on the steps of the Building with calm expressions on their faces as Hilda looked incredibly banged up as if she was in a big fight and they also spotted a crying and heavily injured Eliza making her way to her Mom as, when Roland tried to ask what happened, an urgent Hilda and Stitch quickly dragged him away from the scene of the crime.

"...She fell too," Hilda says while mentally smirking proudly at her accomplishment as Roland stared down at her deadpannedly for a few seconds and sighed heavily as he shakes his head.

"Alright, Guys, do we have sleeping bags?"

"Ih,"

"Flashlights?"

"Yep"

"Snacks?"

"Ih,"

"Bug Sprays?"

"Yep,"

"Portable DVD Players with backup batteries?"

"Ih,"

"Okay, good. I think that's everything, right?"

"Yep, that's about it for Hilda and Stitch's Camping Supplies, Cus," Logan says with Stitch nodding in agreement and reaching behind him to pat all of his and Hilda's Camping Supplies as Joanna smiled and put away her Grocery List.

"Great, and I'm glad that Debbie will allow Stitch to accompany Hilda. Thanks to you being a good boy." Joanna says to Stitch while ruffling his hair as he beamed at the praise. "Although, I do wonder what happened to all of our old Campaign Stuff. I can't find them. I think that I've misplaced them, but I don't want to waste too much time trying to find them when the Camping Trip's tomorrow."

"Make sense." Stitch commented with a shrug as a bewildered Logan turned to Joanna.

"How did you manage to misplace your Camping Supplies?"

"Don't know, but it won't be the first time because I keep feeling that I'm misplacing a lot of things for the past three months or so."

"Hmm, how weird," Stitch mumbled as Joanna and Logan nodded in agreement before the Trio noticed that a random couple was staring at them oddly as they glared at them.

"What? You've never seen an owner talking to her Cousin and Dog before?!"

"Piss off!" Logan shouted angrily.

"Yeah, are youga deaf?! Piss off!" Stitch screamed aggressively as the Young Couple gasped in surprise at the sight of a talking dog and turned around to run away as Joanna, Logan, and Stitch shared a laugh.

"Ha, ha, ha, we should probably stop doing that, though. It's a bit mean." Joanna says while giggling as Stitch and Logan calmed down as the Boys nodded in agreement and we fast forward in time yet again as we see the Gang standing near the Cashier and buying their Camping Supplies as Hilda eyed the huge pile of food with a massive sweatdrop on her head.

"Uh, Mum? You do realize that I'm only going Camping for three days, right? Not a whole month?" Hilda asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It's always good to have options," Joanna answered with a shrug as Logan nodded in agreement.

"Besides, the majority of that food is not for you. It's for Stitch. With that bottomless pit of his, we don't want to run the risk of Stitch eating all of his food and start eating the other kids' food stash," Roland explained as Hilda nodded with a shrug before turning around to talk with Stitch as Roland stared at her and frowns with a serious expression on her face as Joanna spots this and walked over to talk with her Boyfriend.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm sorry, it's just that...she looks so Human." Roland says as Joanna rolled her eyes and scoffs.

"Of course she is. There's just...another side of her is all." Joanna says awkwardly as Roland nods, already knowing the big secret with Hilda due to Joanna telling him about it after the whole Cabin in the Woods incident two months ago.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" A curious Logan asked.

"Nothing." Joanna and Roland answered in unison while looking innocent as Logan stared at them suspiciously before shrugging as they continued buying their stuff, but while the Cashier was charging their stuff, Joanna noticed a nearby newspaper about what seemed to be a huge mysterious black dog...and shrugged as she scoffed.

"What utter rubbish," Joanna commented offhandedly while Roland and Logan spotted the newspaper as they narrowed their eyes stoically, not agreeing with what Joanna said, as the creature in the newspaper looked oddly familiar to them.

Twenty minutes later, we see the Small Family driving through the streets of Trollberg in Joanna's Mini Van with said woman currently sitting in the Passenger's Seat as her Boyfriend Rolland was driving the car, Logan was sitting behind them, and a pair of grumpy-looking Hilda and Stitch could be seen pouting in the back seats as they were really annoyed that they weren't able to ride around in their Hovercraft due to Joanna forbidding them as the Adventurous Duo was forced to have their Spacecraft fly back to their Apartment automatically. Anyway, after stopping the Mini Van due to a red light, a curious Hilda and Stitch turned their heads as they were surprised by what seemed to be some kind of Nisse lying on the sidewalk, looking all sad and pathetic as the Blue-Haired Girl gave him a sympathetic look while the Blue Furry Alien turned his head boredly and ate a piece of bread that they bought at the store as a humming Joanna was reading various articles on her phone and frowned oddly as she saw that the majority of them were about the Mysterious Black Dog.

"My Brother's Friend said his Cousin saw the Beast last night. Right in the street." A Random Pedestrian says while walking past the group with his Brother as the Adults perked up at what he said.

"What? Really?"

"Yeah, even my Mum thinks she saw it. It creeps me out." The Pedestrian says before he and his Brother left as Joanna turned to share a nervous look with Rolland, who gave her a reassuring comforting look as Logan turned to the Adventurous Duo and saw that Hilda was staring at the Nisse intriguingly as he frowned.

"Hilda, don't stare." Logan chastises, causing Hilda to stop what she was doing as Joanna and Roland heard what he said and turned to give the Blue-Haired Girl disapproving looks.

"Hilda, we talked about this. You can't just stare at people like that. It's considered rude." Joanna scolded as Hilda ignored what she said and pointed at the Nisse.

The Magical Creature is a 1-feet-tall, 26-year-old Male Nisse with a disproportionally large head that was completely covered by his thick brown hair as it covers up his whole face except for his big bulbous nose as, underneath his hair, he had black eyes, pointy ears, no chin, slim arms, Light Skin, a slender humanoid build, a long light skin tail with a furry brown ball placed at the tip of his tail, slim toeless legs, and his outfit consisted of a long-sleeved orange turtleneck sweater that reaches down to his shoe-less feet. His name is Tontu (Alpha), a House Spirit who was banished by the Owner of his Previous House.

"Why is he sitting on the ground? He doesn't look comfy. Is he one of those 'Homeless People' you told me about?" Hilda asked as her Mother shakes her head.

"Close, but no, that's a Nisse, Hilda," Joanna says as Hilda and even Stitch raised an eyebrow at her curiously.

"A Nisse? What's a Nisse?" Stitch asked.

"Well, you see, guys, a Nisse is a House Spirit who normally lives inside people's homes," Logan explained while turning to address the Adventurous Duo as Joanna nodded.

"And they're normally invisible," Joanna added in as Logan turned to her.

"Oh, actually, that's a common misconception, Cus. House Spirits like Nisse really can't turn themselves invisible. They are just really good at hiding."

"Ah, good to know," Joanna says with a nod as Hilda turned back to stare at the Nisse.

"But if he's a House Spirit, why is he living on the streets?"

"Most likely, he was banished," Roland answered.

"Why?" Stitch asked.

"Don't know, but if he was banished to begin with, then it must be for a good reason. That Nisse must've done something bad." Joanna says while giving the Nisse a subtle judging glare as she then turned back to the spotlight and secretly wished that it turned green so that they can drive away already from the Mysterious Nisse.

"Well, even if he was banished, it's kind of sad that he's just lying there. Maybe we could buy him a muffin or a hot chocolate or something." Hilda suggested innocently as a glaring Joanna whirled around to face her Daughter directly.

"No, Hilda. You and Stitch cannot talk to them nor feel bad for them, okay? They steal, and they'll tell you lies to make you feel sorry for them." Joanna says with a glare as Hilda and Stitch blinked at what she said in shock.

"Uh, racist much?" Stitch asked with a raised eyebrow as a frowning Roland turned to defend his Girlfriend.

"No, Stitch, Joanna's not racist for hating on Nisses. She has a pretty valid reason for disliking them as the majority of Nisses in the City are thieves, and liars. I had even heard that a few Nisse even killed several people while they were sleeping. I agree with Joanna that you guys aren't allowed to interact with them."

"But the Sparrow Scout Oath says to be a friend to all people, animals, and spirits and to do a good thing every day."

"Hilda, if a Serial Killer walked up to you for help, would you help him?" Logan asked rhetorically with a raised eyebrow as Hilda paused a bit with a flinch as she shakes her head.

"W-Well, maybe not, but wouldn't helping a Nisse be considered a good thing to do?"

"A good thing would be to do as you're told and listen to your Family." Joanna snapped with a harsh glare as Hilda and Stitch flinched as they glanced down awkwardly just as the lights were turned green as Roland quickly drove the car forward and sped off, but unknown to the adults, Hilda and Stitch could be seen glancing back at the Nisse through the back window as they had worried frowns on their faces. 20 Minutes Later, we see the Small Family walking through the hallways of Hilda and Stitch's Apartment as they were holding onto their groceries and Camping Supplies as they turned a corner, and the Gang were surprised to see Raven Lader Debbie standing near their Apartment Door.

"Oh, hey, Debbie, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be preparing for the End-Of-The-Year Camping Trip?" Roland asked curiously while walking forward as Debbie turned to him.

"Oh, yeah, I should be, yeah, but you see, when I was about to leave, I was confronted by Eliza's Mother about something, and when I tried to find you all, you guys had left, so I decided to come here to tell you, but...well...it's better if you see it all for yourselves," Debbie says with a frown while giving Hilda a subtle disapproving glare as she then reached into her pockets and pulled out a set of photos that Stitch took of the fight between Hilda and Eliza as she showed it to the Adults.

"Hilda! How could you?!" A shocked and angry Joanna asked while turning to Hilda with a stern glare as Roland sighed heavily and shakes his head.

"Ugh, I knew that you were lying earlier," Roland says as Hilda flinched at all of the glares that the Adults were giving her and turned over to scowl at Stitch scoldingly.

"I told you to get rid of the evidence earlier!" Hilda hissed out with Stitch giving her an apologetic shrug as she then turned back to the others. "Okay, I know that it looks bad, but I promise you that I didn't beat up Eliza for no good reason! She insulted my Dad!"

"Hilda, even if that is true, that doesn't give you the right to beat up someone weaker than you! I raised you better than that!" Joanna says crossly before turning to Debbie with a sheepish smile on her face. "Debbie, I'm so sorry about this. Hilda's usually not a violent girl. Look, let's talk about this inside." Joanna says while walking over to open her Apartment Door as she and the others were surprised to see how messy the Apartment looks as various clothes, electrical equipment, and disordered junk could be seen littering the ground.

"Oh, wow, it looks...messier than usual," Debbie says awkwardly as a heavily embarrassed Joanna turned to Boys for the help, and they were quick to act fast to try and remedy the situation as Logan turned to the Sparrow Scout Master.

"Hey, sorry about the mess here, Raven Leader Debbie. We weren't expecting any company, and with a family as big as ours, things tend to get messy." Logan says while kicking away Jumba's Shirt as Roland stepped forward.

"Yeah, so how about you wait outside for a bit while we tidy up the place and offer you some tea?" Roland asked as Debbie smiled and nodded while turning around to leave the Apartment as Joanna shut the door closed and the Trio Adults were quick to run around the Apartment to begin cleaning up the place to make it look presentable enough for their Guest as Pleakley suddenly came out of his Room while drinking from a large jug filled with tea as a surprised Joanna turned to him.

"Pleakley!" Joanna yelled, startling Pleakley enough for him to drop the jug as he accidentally spilled some tea on the floor.

"Oh, hey, Guys, how was the Sparrow Scout Meeting? Also, we're out of tea, Joanna."

"Pleakley, come on, I was saving that tea for later." An angry Joanna says while walking over to grab the jug and quickly cleaned up the spillage with a towel that Logan had handed her as a bright flash of blue light emitted from Jumba's Room/Lab, and the door was slammed open as a grinning Jumba could be seen standing in the doorway while wearing a long-sleeved white lab coat, a sleeveless white shirt underneath, and black pants.

"Guys, you've arrived just in time. You all have to come with me to the Ship and see my newest invention. It's unrelated to my secret project, but it's still just as good."

"No, wait, Jumba, stop!" Logan ordered while holding out his hands, stopping Jumba in his tracks as it was a good thing that the Shape-Shifting Mutant stopped him in time since Jumba's feet were covered with mud for some weird reason.

"Oh, right, sorry for tracking mud, but Jumba was too excited to wash his feet because my newest invention will improve all of our primitive Earthly Lives," Jumba says with a smug grin as Pleakley perks up and pulled out a magazine from out of his dress's pockets.

"Oh, speaking of improving your life, Alfur and I earlier read this fascinating article about improving your health and removing any excess fat."

"Wait, really?" An intrigued Jumba asked as Pleakley nodded eagerly and was about to explain more about the article that he and Alfur had read but was stopped by an exasperated Joanna.

"Guys, seriously, we do NOT have time for this. We have a guest." Joanna hissed out while gesturing at the door as the Aliens beamed excitedly at what she said.

"A guest? Ooh, let's go and meet them. Let us put on our Earthly Disguises." Jumba says with an ecstatic Pleakley nodding in agreement as they were about to leave to get changed but were stopped by Roland.

"No, guys, please, just stay inside and let us handle the Guest."

"Yeah, Hilda's in enough trouble as it is. We don't want her fight with Eliza to cost her and Stitch's chance of going to the Camping Trip or possibly not being allowed to attend their Badge Ceremony." Logan says as the Adults nodded, and Joanna made her way over to shove both Aliens into Jumba's Room/Lab before shutting the door closed as Pleakley and Jumba turned to each other with worried looks on their faces.

"Hilda's in trouble?! No Camping Trip!? No Badge Ceremony?! Oh, no!" Jumba and Pleakley screamed in unison nervously before composing themselves as they shared a determined glare and Pleakley pulled out his Emergency Dress Up Bag.

"Well, all out of tea, I'm afraid," Roland says apologetically to Debbie after opening the door for her and letting her into the Apartment as he, Joanna, and Logan made sure to spend the next few minutes cleaning up the place enough to look more or less decent.

"Anyway, I know that my sweet and innocent Daughter feels REALLY sorry for what she has done and promises me that she will NEVER do something like this again, right? Hilda?" Joanna asked while turning to give Hilda a fierce look that read, 'If you do something to ruin your Camping Trip and Badge Ceremony, I will ground you for a month!'.

"Yes, I feel VERY sorry for what I've done, and I promise that I will NEVER do it again," Hilda says half-sincerely with a puppy dog-eyed look, not regretting beating up Eliza, but she's mostly sad for disappointing her Family.

"Well, that maybe, but for the Past Year, I couldn't help but notice that Hilda and Eliza don't seem to get along, and judging by today's events, I worry that if I have the both of them go on the Camping Trip together, they might end up in a fight again. I can't let that happen, I'm afraid, so I might have to make a tough decision now."

"W-What do you mean, Debs?" Roland asked with an anxious laugh as Debbie gave the Family a stern yet remorseful glare.

"Hilda, I'm sorry about this, but as a good Raven Leader, I cannot let an incident like this just slip by, so it's with a heavy heart that I have to inform you and Stitch that both of you are not allowed to go on-,"

"Where is she?! Where is she!? Where's my little angel?!" Pleakley suddenly screamed while bursting out of Jumba's Room/Lab as the Octopus-like Alien ran into the Living Room and was wearing one of his Earth Disguises, which consisted of him wearing a large yellow sunhat, a short curly orange wig, a pair of large gold hoop earrings on his nonexistent ears, three large eyelashes on his single huge eye that had some cyan-colored eyeshadow painted on it, red lipstick, a strapless long blue dress that reaches down to his feet with pink/red leaves designs, and three high heel black shoes.

"Oh no..." Joanna, Roland, and Logan mumbled while slapping their foreheads with exasperated groans as they expect nothing but disaster from the Aliens' Antics.

"Oh, wow..." Hilda and Stitch mumbled under their breaths in shock while Debbie looks confused by Pleakley's appearance as said person turned to beam at the sight of Hilda.

"Oh, there she is! My precious little innocent princess who must've been a victim of a cruel misunderstanding!" Pleakley shouted overdramatically while running over to scope up a surprised Hilda into his arms as he hugged her close to his chest.

"No, no, no, no, no, no!" Joanna mumbled under her breath concernedly while placing her hands on her mouth as Roland gave her a side hug to comfort her just as a grunting Jumba burst out of his room as he was wearing one of his Earth Disguises, which consisted of him wearing a black wig, two pairs of glasses, a short black mustache, a sleeveless white shirt, a black belt with a golden belt buckle, and short brown pants as he wears no shoes.

"Where is she?!" Jumba asked while adjusting his pants as Roland, who was struggling to comfort his panicking Girlfriend, turned to him.

"Jumba, what are you and Pleakley-,"

"Don't worry, the cavalry has arrived," Jumba whispered while nudging at the Adults playfully as he then walked over to the group. "There she is!" Jumba exclaimed enthusiastically as he ran over to hug both Pleakley and Hilda as Debbie looks completely perplexed by the situation. "Somebody please give this Kid a gold star! She's the embodiment of a good, obedient child!"

"Since when?" A disbelieving Logan asked as Hilda constantly breaks the rules and goes against her Mother's wishes all the time.

"True," Stitch says with a nod as Hilda gave them a subtle annoyed look before Jumba lets go of her and Pleakley as the former set her down on the ground and then turns to face Debbie.

"Hello, Raven Leader Debbie, I'm sure that you remember us, Auntie Pleakley and Uncle Jumba."

"Oh, yeah, I do. It's very nice to meet you both again. I love your dress." Debbie complimented with a polite smile as Pleakley beamed and did a curtsey for her.

"Why, thank you, Raven Leader Debbie. At least someone around here likes my dress. My Husband thinks that it makes me look fat." Pleakley says while glaring at Jumba as he raised his hands in surrender.

"Hey, in Jumba's defense, you wanted Jumba to tell the truth."

"What we want and what we need are two entirely different things." Pleakley hissed out angrily while rolling his eye as he then turned to give Debbie a heavy sigh. "Ugh, it's true what they say, deary. Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, and only one has a big fat pen-,"

"On second thought, Debbie, why don't we speak outside?" Joanna asked while laughing awkwardly and sweating nervously as Pleakley turned to give her a scolding look.

"Now, Joanna, it's not polite to interrupt your Sister-In-Law. You're setting a bad example for your Daughter."

"Yeah, you're setting a bad example for me Mum," Hilda says while she and Stitch tried to stifle their giggles from Jumba and Pleakley's antics as Joanna's eye twitched in irritation and facepalmed with a groan as Roland patted her back to comfort her.

"Anyway, Gray-Haired Woman, I'm sure that my Little Niece did not mean to...what did you do again?" Jumba asked while leaning over to whisper into Hilda's ear.

"I beat up Eliza."

"Really...did you win?"

"Ih, enough that she went crying to her Momma." Stitch explained while showing Jumba the pictures of Hilda and Eliza's Fight on his Camera as Jumba beamed.

"Hey, that's my Little Tough Niece," Jumba says while sharing a congratulating high-five with Hilda as Debbie frowned at this and was about to say something but stopped as Roland and Joanna suddenly appeared by her side.

"Hey, Joanna's right. Why don't we talk outside?" Roland asked with an anxious laugh while he and Joanna lead Debbie out of the Apartment as Hilda and Stitch followed after them.

"Aloha, Miss Raven Leader Debbie!"

"Take care!" Jumba says while he and Pleakley wave goodbye at Debbie as the Former Evil Genius turned to his 'Wife'. "Boy, good thing we were here, eh?" Jumba asked Pleakley with a smirk while elbowing him as the Octopus-like Alien, however, glared at him and turned around with a huff.

"I'm not talking to you!"

"What?! What did Jumba do!?"

"Ugh, you're so much of a numbskull! I want a divorce!" Pleakley screamed while crying as Logan stared at them awkwardly with a massive sweatdrop on his head.

"Uh, you guys do realize that you aren't actually married, right?" Logan asked while heavily embarrassed by the Alien Duo's antics as they stared at him with innocent confusion.

"He, he, sorry about the relatives, Debbie." A heavily embarrassed Joanna says to Debbie after she and Roland escorted her out of their Apartment as Hilda smiled up at her nervously.

"Yeah, sorry. Well, thanks for coming. See you at the Camping Trip tomorrow." Hilda says with a fake smile while turning around as she and Stitch entered the Apartment as they then shut the door closed and locked it.

"Hilda."

"..." A silent and remorseful-looking Hilda said nothing but unlocked the door and opened it as she placed her arms behind her back and glanced down at the ground somberly as Debbie gave her a firm yet gentle glare.

"I know how excited you are about the Camping Trip and the Badge Ceremony, but your behavior today worries me because if you and Eliza get into a fight out in the woods and something bad happens to the both of you, well-,"

"Look, Raven Leader Debbie, I'm sorry for what I did today. Truly, I am. It's just that...well, Eliza insulted my Dad, and it...angered me." Hilda says while shifting around nervously as Stitch and the Adults shared concerned yet sympathetic looks as the Blue-Haired Girl sighs heavily. "But I promise that I won't fight with Eliza again."

"I hope so, Hilda, because if you act up again, not only will you miss out on the Camping Trip, but I will have to take you out at the Badge Ceremony as well," Debbie says, shocking everyone with what she said as Roland stepped forward and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Debbie, trust me, Hilda will be on her best behavior."

"Yeah, she feels really bad for what she did," Joanna added in.

"So, Hilda won't fight with Eliza on the Camping Trip," Roland says as Hilda nodded eagerly.

"Yeah, I promise that I won't fight at all," Hilda says as Debbie glanced at the others with an emotionless look on her face, not entirely convinced yet as Roland sees this and gets an idea as he leans into her ear.

"Debbie, wait, before you decide on anything, if you let Hilda and Stitch attend the camping trip, I will..." Roland trails off as he whispered the last part out quietly to Debbie, whose eyes widened in surprise before beaming as she nodded.

"Well, when you put it that way, I guess I can allow Hilda and Stitch to come to the Camping Trip as long as they don't misbehave," Debbie says with a warm smile as everyone perks up at what she said.

"Oh, thank you, Debbie. We really appreciate it." Joanna says while sighing in relief as Roland did the same as Hilda and Stitch beam as they shared a high five.

"You're welcome, Joanna, but before I go, Hilda? I would like to speak with you in private." Debbie says to Hilda, confusing her, as she nodded, and Debbie leads her to the end of the hallway as Stitch followed after her. "So, Hilda, uh, this is awkward to say, but there's another reason why I wanted to exclude you from the Badge Ceremony," Debbie says while rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly. "You see, I couldn't help but notice that you haven't earned a single badge throughout the year," Debbie says, causing Hilda to flinch and glanced down at the ground sadly as Debbie sighs heavily and bends down to her knees as she placed her hand on the Blue-Haired Girl's shoulder. "Look, Hilda, I'm sure that you didn't tell your Family about it, yet, but I can't have a Sparrow Scout Member attend the Ceremony when they haven't earned a single badge yet. It will look bad on all of us." Debbie says as Hilda sighs at this, disheartened.

"Yeah, yeah, I know, but Raven Leader Debbie, there must be a way for me to be able to attend the Badge Ceremony, right?" Hilda pleaded while clasping her hands together as Stitch did the same.

"Well...while it's a bit unorthodox, I guess there is one way for you to be able to attend the ceremony. If you are able to earn at least one badge before next week when the ceremony takes place, then I will allow you to attend it."

"Really?! Oh, thanks, Raven Leader!" A beaming Hilda says while hugging her in joy as she then lets go of her with a determined look on her face. "Don't worry, Miss Debbie, because starting right now, I will devote myself to earning a single badge before the ceremony begins! You'll see! I can do it!"

"There's no way that I can do this..." Hilda says somberly as we fast forward in time and see the Adventurous Duo currently residing in the Trollberg Forest at nighttime as they were resting on one of the wings of Jumba and Pleakley's Cloaked Spaceship with Frida, David, Marcus, Daemon, Nero, and Twig lying around them as Hilda and Stitch had explained to their friends on what happened earlier with the Raven Leader Debbie.

"Come on, Hilda, you won't be able to earn a badge with that attitude." Frida chastises while wearing her new Casual Clothes, which consisted of a light mauve beanie, a long-sleeved dark mauve hoodie with a sleeveless white shirt underneath, long black pants, and white shoes.

"Yeah, you will never earn a badge if you don't believe you can, Madam." A 4'4-feet-tall, 12-year-old Daemon says with a warm smile as he didn't really change much physically, nor does he wear a different outfit.

"Guys, I had a full year to earn a buttload of Sparrow Scout Badges, and I got zilch. There's no way that I'll be able to earn one in a week." A discouraged Hilda says with a heavy sigh as she was wearing her new casual clothes, which consisted of a black beret, a long-sleeved dark brown sweater with yellow cuffs/accents, a long yellow skirt with brown shorts underneath, black tights, and, of course, her iconic red rain boots.

"Well, she does have a point," David says with a shrug while wearing his new casual clothes, which consisted of a long-sleeved turtleneck dark gray sweater, dark blue shorts, and light gray shoes.

"Seriously, dude?" A deadpan 4'3-feet-tall, 12-year-old Marcus says with a glare while wearing his usual Casual Clothes, except that his long-sleeved dark gray sweater was replaced with a white one.

"Maybe Eliza is right. I am a horrible Sparrow Scout. I haven't earned one measly badge all year because I was either busy with supernatural stuff or goofing off, and now a week later, my Mum and the others will find out that I'm badgeless and will be heavily disappointed in me." Hilda says while turning to her side to not face the group as she teared up a bit self-loathing. "I bet my Dad is glaring down at me from Heaven right now at how much of a failure I am. I'm not a great Sparrow Scout like him, my Mum, or my Cousin Logan. I'm just...me." Hilda says while closing her eyes with a tear running down her cheek as her Friends stared at her sympathetically and Stitch stood up to walk over as he glomps down on top of a grunting Hilda, startling her from her self-doubting thoughts as she glanced at him confusedly. "S-Stitch, what are you-,"

"Hilda, no bad Sparrow Scout Member." Stitch stated firmly with a glare as he was now wearing a light blue scarf with white stripes, and it was wrapped around his neck as his new scarf hid his red collar and reaches down to his feet.

"Yeah, Stitch is right, Hils," Frida says while she and David walked over to glomp down on Hilda as well. "While you're not the greatest Sparrow Scout Member, you're not the worst."

"Yeah, that title belongs to Eliza. At least you don't buy your way to earn badges." David added in as Marcus and Daemon made their way over to glomp down on Hilda.

"Besides, Cus, you have faced things way harder than this. You can handle this challenge."

"But you are right about one thing, Madam. You're not your family, your Hilda, the most smartest and resourceful girl that I know. If anyone can find a way to earn a badge in a week, it's you." Daemon says with a wink as Hilda blushed at what he said but then giggled when Nero flew over to land on her head as Twig walked over to nuzzle against her cheek.

"Awwww, guys, thanks...do you really think that I can do it?" A hopeful yet nervous Hilda asked as Stitch reaches his hand down to place it on top of his Best Friend's hand reassuringly.

"We do it together," Stitch says as Hilda teared up at this again, but this time out of joy as she then nodded with a determined look on her face...a real one this time.

"Alright, gang, let's go and get me that badge!" Hilda exclaimed with her friends cheering loudly at this as they each gave their friend some congratulatory words. "...But first, can you all please get off my body? Y-You're kind of breaking my spine." Hilda says with a pained, tense smile as Stitch and the others froze before getting off her body as they gave her apologetic looks. "Okay, so now we have to brainstorm ideas on how to earn me a badge," Hilda says to the others with a serious glare on her face as a grinning Frida beamed.

"Well, the good news is that I know the perfect badge that you can earn. It's the Coveted-,"

"How about the Recycling Badge?" David suggested, cutting off Frida as Hilda pursed her lips and shakes her head.

"Nah, will take too long."

"Hava gonna monka tonu loku tiki?" Stitch asked as Hilda raised an eyebrow at him oddly.

"Uh, I don't think there's a badge for that, Stitch," Hilda says with a half-lid blank look as Stitch chuckles mischievously.

"Guys, what are you talking about? Did you forget about the Coveted-,"

"How about the Sewing Badge?" Marcus asked, interrupting Frida as Hilda shakes her head.

"Nah, I'm terrible at sewing."

"The Cooking Badge?" Daemon asked.

"I don't know how to cook," Hilda responded with a shrug as an annoyed Frida waved her hands around to get everyone's attention.

"Guys, seriously, what about the-,"

"Cyclist Badge?"

"I can't win one due to needing other people since it's an event-type activity, David. Besides, I can't ride a bike for the life of me." Hilda answered casually, not ashamed to admit that she doesn't know how to ride a bike since how in the hell can you ride a bike in the woods?

"Guys, please-,"

"Fire Safety Badge?" Stitch asked.

"Too unsafe."

"Guys-,"

"Martial Arts Badge?" Marcus asked.

"That's more of an event-type thing, so I can't earn that badge without beating up a lot of people, and I'm not sure the Raven Leader will be okay with me fighting other people anyway," Hilda says with a wince.

"..."

"Master at Arms Badge?" Stitch suggested while summoning his extra arms to reveal that he was holding onto two plasma blasters.

"I-I don't think that's a badge in the Sparrow Scout Manual." Hilda asked with a nervous, awkward look on her face as Stitch grumbled, 'Well, it should be', and put away his blasters as he hid his extra arms.

"GUYS!" A fed-up Frida screamed, gaining everyone's attention as she glared at them. "INSTEAD OF TRYING TO FIND AN ACTIVITY TO EARN A BADGE OR WHATEVER, WHY DON'T WE JUST FOCUS ON HAVING HILDA WIN THE COVETED CAMPING BADGE?!" An exasperated Frida screamed while panting heavily as the group shared a surprised look and a blink.

"Huh...yeah, why don't we just do that?" Hilda suggested as the others nodded.

"Yeah, I mean, it is easier than coming up with another way to get a badge," Marcus says with a shrug.

"Great idea, Frida," David says as Frida huffs but nodded in gratitude as Daemon turned to Hilda curiously.

"So, now what?"

"Well, since we finished planning early, you guys mind helping me with packing my bag at my place?" Hilda asked as Stitch and the others nodded while mumbling 'Yes' as the group stood up and started making their way back inside the Alien Spaceship, except for the Blue-Haired Girl as she stayed behind a bit to think for a little while and glanced up at the sky as Hilda suddenly flinched when a small cough rang out behind her and turned around as she was surprised to see Logan standing in front of her. "Logan? What are you doing here?" Hilda asked while standing up from the ground as Logan walked towards her and bends down as he gave her a sympathetic, somber frown and reached over to pull a surprised Hilda into a hug. "Logan, what are you-,"

"Hilda, I know that you haven't earned a single badge all year," Logan says, shocking Hilda with what she said as he separated from her. "I overheard your conversation with your Friends here and back at the Sparrow Scout Hall...superhearing," Logan says after noticing Hilda's confused look as the Twelve-Year-Old Girl glanced down at the ground solemnly.

"I bet you're really disappointed in me, huh?" Hilda asked quietly with teary eyes as Logan shakes his head with a serious expression on his face.

"No, in fact, I want to help you."

"What?!" A surprised Hilda asked while turning to Logan as he nodded at her.

"Yeah, while I am a bit disheartened to hear that you haven't earned a single badge yet, we still have time for you to earn a Sparrow Scout Badge, and I want to help. Besides, remember, I've earned every single Sparrow Scout Badge ever. With my help, as well as your Friends' help, we will have you earn that Coveted Camping Badge in no time." Logan says with a reassuring smile as Hilda stared at him in shock for a few seconds before beaming as she reached over to hug him.

"Thanks, Logan. You are the best Cousin ever...just don't tell Marcus." Hilda added the last part sheepishly after letting go of him as Logan chuckled and ruffled her hair playfully.

"Got it, Kiddo. Anyway, before I help you out, we have some business to attend to." Logan says while standing up from the floor as he placed his hands on his hips. "Now, remember that I was supposed to give you a lecture?" Logan reminded as Hilda tilted her head in bewilderment before her eyes widened in realization as she nodded.

"Oh, right, forgot about that. All right, lay it on me."

"Oh, I will...but I will lecture you in front of your friends as a little payback for giving me a heart attack earlier." Logan says with a cheeky grin while reaching down to grab a surprised Hilda's arm.

"What?! You can't-Wait, Logan stop! please! Daemon is there! This will be so embarrassing!" Hilda whined with a blush as Logan ignored her cries and started dragging her away.

---

"And...done!" A gleeful Joanna exclaimed while clasping her hands together in delight as we fast forward to nighttime and see her and Roland standing in the Kitchen as they were able to finish up with creating the feast for Family Movie Night. "Thanks for the help, sweetheart," Joanna says while hugging Roland and briefly kisses him on the mouth.

"Thanks, Babe. Would helping you entice a certain reward?" Roland asked with a sly tone as Joanna giggled and bumped her hip against his sides.

"Maybe~," Joanna says with a wink and a blush as Roland smirked cockily.

"Hey, Joanna, we're done with the cleaning," Logan says with him and Kaisa walking out of the Living Room as, after Logan had his talk with Hilda and scolded her in front of her amused friends, the group teleported back home, and, once Kaisa showed up at the Apartment, the Young Couple went over to help Joanna and Roland with setting up for Family Movie Night while the kids began helping Hilda and Stitch pack their stuff for the camping trip.

"Oh, thanks, guys. You and your Girlfriend's Magic make cleaning much easier for me." A grateful Joanna says as Kaisa waves it off with a grin on her face.

"No, probs, Joan." A 36-year-old Kaisa says with her black hair is longer and frizzled as it has purple streaks on it, but she hasn't changed much with her clothes, other than her black cloak now being colored dark purple. "Anyway, I'm going to go and powder my nose. BRB." Kaisa says while turning around to walk toward the Bathroom as Logan was about to say something, but was cut off by something on the TV.

"Now, some are calling it 'The Beast of Trollberg' or 'The Blackhound' with more alleged sightings filed overnight. The one thing we know for certain is that it's got the whole city talking, but what is this creature?" A News Lady says stoically with Joanna looking nervous by this as she bits her lip and turned to her Boyfriend and Cousin.

"Uh, guys? Maybe having Hilda go on that Camping Trip is a bad idea." Joanna says as Logan nodded in agreement with a worried look on his face.

"Yeah, true. With that thing around, I don't think it's the best time for Hilda and Stitch-,"

"Whoa, Joanna, Logan, calm down. There's nothing to worry about," Roland says reassuringly while walking over to place his hand on his Girlfriend's shoulder comfortingly. "You said it yourself earlier. That all of that is utter rubbish. This is just basically Hoax News. Nothing to worry about. Look." Roland says while pointing at the TV as it shows a News Reporter interviewing a Sailor.

"Well, it came over the fence right here, all quick as the wind. Terrible it was. I came dashing out and...and it turned out to be just a bag of wind...but, still, I was scared." The Sailor says with a sheepish smile and a shrug as the News Reporter was staring at him with a very annoyed glare and was about to cuss him out for wasting her time, but the News Channel quickly shut off the camera as Roland turned to Joanna and Logan.

"See, guys? That Blackhound is fake. The News is just trying to get some newsworthy story to scare and get people's attention, so you have nothing to worry about. Besides, if the Blackhound does exist, Stitch will be there to protect Hilda." Roland added in as Joanna sighs in relief, feeling cheered up as she smiled at her Boyfriend.

"Thanks, Baby, I really needed that. Now, let me get the Kids to start Movie Night." Joanna says while walking away as Roland waved her off, and a serious-looking Logan leans over to him.

"Roland, I have to warn you, the Black Hound is very much real. I had fought it before in the past and barely escaped with my life. If that thing is in Trollberg, then we can't allow the kids to-,"

"Logan, relax. I know the Black Hound is real. I'm not an idiot. I just said all of that to calm Joanna down and allow her to let the Kids go on their Camping Trip. Hilda and Stitch have been gushing about it for weeks. Besides, as I said earlier, Stitch can protect them both should the Black Hound show up. Plus, I'm pretty sure that they will have their Shape-Shifting, Magic Powered Cousin looking after them, if you know what I mean?" Roland says with a wink as Logan's eyes widened in realization, and grinned cockily as he nodded.

"Hilda, Stitch, we have finished cleaning up the Apartment, and the feast is ready, so I'm happy to announce that Family Movie Night is ready to begin!" Joanna exclaimed cheerfully while opening the door to Hilda and Stitch's Room as she walks inside and spotted her Daughter, Stitch, and the others kneeling down on the floor as they all seem to be helping Hilda and Stitch with putting away their clothes and camping equipment into her backpack.

"Oh, hey, Mum, happy to hear that. My Friends were just helping Stitch and I with packing up our stuff for the Camping Trip tomorrow." A smiling Hilda says as Stitch turned to the others.

"Youga guys want to participate in our Family Movie Night?"

"Sure, I would love to, but I have to call my Parents and tell them that I would be staying here for a little while longer," Frida says with a shrug.

"Ditto," David says as Daemon nodded in agreement, and the Kids began calling up their Respective Parents as Joanna moved over to help out Hilda, Stitch, and Marcus with putting away their Camping Equipment.

Two Hours Later, we see the whole gang residing in the Apartment's Living Room as they were watching a cheesy monster movie on the TV with the lights turned off as Jumba, Pleakley, and Roland were sitting on the couch with Logan seated on a chair as Kaisa was sitting on his lap, Marcus was sitting on another chair with Alfur and Astrid sitting on the armrest together, Twig and Ivy were cuddling together in Twig's Doggy Bed that was dragged over from Hilda and Stitch's Room, and the Kids were all sitting on the ground as Frida and David were sitting close to each other on the left while Hilda and Daemon were seated close to each other on the right as Stitch was lying between them and Amon and Nero could be seen sleeping near the Deerfoxes.

"Is everyone having fun?" A cheerful Joanna asked while coming back to the Kitchen as the Light Auburn-Haired Woman was holding a bowl filled with a bunch of fake-looking eyeballs that were made out of candy, chocolate-covered fake bugs, and sandwiches that were made with fake stomach guts that were actually made out of beef jerky as Hilda, Stitch, and the others all mumbled 'Yes' as a beaming Joanna made her way over to sit down beside her Boyfriend and placed the bowl at the table. "Well, that's good to know, and if anyone else is hungry, I've made some quick Sci-Fi Snacks to put us in the mood."

"Oh, delicious," Stitch says with a grin as he, Marcus, Logan, David, and Daemon all reached over to grab some of the snacks.

"Ugh, I never understood what's so great about this movie. All of these Aliens are ridiculously over the top. What's so scary about an Alien Ant anyway?" Pleakley asked with annoyed glare as Logan shrugged.

"I don't know. I once turned into a giant ant to scare away invaders during one of my army missions. Trust me, even something as small and weak-looking like a rabbit can be outright terrifying if it was the size of a building." Logan says as Pleakley scoffed.

"Oh, please, that just sounds-,"

"Shhh, be quiet, One-Eyed Noodle. I'm trying to watch movie." A truly invested Jumba says just as the TV Screen showed a scene of the giant alien ant-like creature biting a Human in half and eating him as Pleakley winced and gagged at the sight as Jumba sniffled and cried comically. "It's so beautiful!" Jumba says while blowing his nose on a napkin as Pleakley and Logan stared at him oddly before remembering that he was an Evil Scientist and mutually choose to ignore him for the time being as a grinning Logan then turned to an equally grinning Kaisa as they lean into each other to begin making out.

"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!" A scared David screamed while turning around to bury his head into Frida's chest and hugged her fearfully as the Dark-Skinned Girl rolled her eyes amusedly but blushed lightly at how close he was to her as Frida hugged him back and rubbed his head to comfort him.

"Oh, my goodness gracious!" A shocked Alfur exclaimed while clasping his hands over his mouth in terror as Astrid, however, grinned at what she said and laughed.

"Whoa, Badass!" Marcus shouted with a cocky smirk, loving the movie as Hilda giggled under her breath, not bothered by the scene in the Movie as she then perked up, and an idea popped into her head as Hilda turned to Daemon.

"Oh, my! How scary!" Hilda yelled overdramatically, pretending to look scared as she shuffled over to hug Daemon and buried her head into his neck with a content smile on her face as Daemon was surprised by the hug but didn't look uncomfortable at all as he smiled warmly and placed his hands around Hilda's waist to 'comfort' her.

"Wait, Hilda, why are you scared? Isn't this your favorite-Oof!" Roland asked confusedly before getting elbowed by Joanna as she gave him a glare and gestured her head at Hilda and Daemon, who seemed to be cuddling with each other, as Roland's eyes widened in realization, and the Young Man nodded as he kept his mouth shut.

"Mmmm~," Logan and Kaisa moaned as we see the Lovers currently making out with each other in their chair, but they made sure to keep it quiet enough as to not disturb the others from watching their movie as Twig and Ivy cuddled with each other in their Doggy Bed and were even nuzzling noses as Nero and Amun could be seen making whooping noises as the Deerfoxes blushes in embarrassment at this.

"Hey, Joanna, I think you did a good job with Family Movie Night. Everyone seems to..." Roland says before trailing off as he noticed that his Girlfriend was fast asleep and laid her head on his shoulder as the Blonde-Haired Man smiled at her warmly and kissed her forehead before placing his arm around her waist as everyone continued enjoying Family Movie Night, but then trouble began to awry as Stitch felt his Power Cell vibrate loudly and his eyes briefly glowed green as he twitched mildly.

"Huh?" A confused Stitch asked after his eyes stopped glowing and stopped twitching as he looks around...before shrugging as 626 went back to watching the Movie...but then Stitch's eyes glowed green again as he twitched around and one of his extra arms popped out as the Furry Blue Alien accidentally punched David in the leg.

"Ow! Stitch!" David complained while rubbing his bruised leg as a surprised Stitch turned to him and glanced down at his third left arm with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, sorry." Stitch apologized while putting away his extra arm as he went back to watching the movie, but then Stitch gasped sharply as he felt his Power Cell vibrating violently and trembled lightly as Experiment 626 popped out his extra arms and was suddenly sent flying backwards as he crash-landed near the Dining Room Table.

"Ugh, w-what? What was-Argh!" Stitch asked confusedly while getting up from the floor as he rubbed his head and, suddenly, he started glitching out again as Experiment 626 crashed down to the floor and started having what seemed to be a mini seizure as he popped out his antennas and back spikes as a panting Stitch growled in what seems to be in pain and anger as he suddenly raised his head and his eyes glowed fully green as his Power Cell Vibrated so hard that it could be heard outside of his body.

"Hmmm?" A confused Jumba hummed as he and Logan heard the commotion that Stitch was making as they turned their heads, and the Duo, as well as everyone else, yelped in surprise as a roaring, green-eyed Stitch suddenly leaped over to land in the Living Room Table and started spazzing as he threw away all of the food on the table, covering the screaming group with disorder junk food as a growling Stitch suddenly zooms off and crashed down into the floor as he rolled over to disappear into the hallways.

"Ugh!"

"Stitch!"

"What the hell?!"

"Ewwwww!"

"Gross!" Hilda and all of the others complained while struggling to clean themselves up as Jumba wiped away some fake eyeballs from his face and heard Stitch moaning in pain in the background as he got up from the couch and made his way over to peek into the hallway as the Mad Genius spotted Stitch twitching and spazzing out on the ground with his eyes glowing green as he suddenly ran over to slam his head through the wall multiples times until there was a huge hole in the wall as Stitch's Power Cell stopped vibrating and a whimpering Experiment 626 took a couple of steps back as his eyes stopped glowing green and proceed to crash down into the ground, exhausted as Jumba stared at him with a look that seems to be a mixture between shock, horror, and realization.

"Oh, no..." Jumba mumbles under his breath before putting on a serious look as he walked into the hallway and made his way over to his Room/Lab as Joanna and the Adults spotted this as they raised their eyebrows suspiciously and were quick to follow after him.

"Jumba? Jumba? Slow down! Where are you going?! Include us! Include us! But most importantly me!" Pleakley shouted as he and the others ran after Jumba as they reached his Room/Lab.

"Shhhh, be quiet." Jumba hissed out while making sure that Hilda and the others weren't around as he then opened the door and walked into his Room/Lab as Pleakley and the Rest of the Adults followed after him as Jumba shuts the door behind them. "We can't let the Kids figure out what's going on."

"But what is going on? Why did Stitch spazz out like that back at the Living Room?" Joanna asked while brushing away some food sludge from out of her hair as a slightly panicking Jumba began frantically looking around for something in the room.

"Look, something is wrong with 626."

"What is it?" Kaisa asked curiously while crossing her arms as Jumba tossed away a box filled with chemicals, and the gang narrowly avoided it as it blew up in the background harmlessly.

"I'm not sure, but I have a small hunch," Jumba says while running over to open his closet wide open as he bends down and began rummaging through his various clothes.

"And the hunch is?" Logan drawled out as Jumba momentarily stopped what he was doing to turn and glare at him seriously.

"There's no time to explain. This is an urgent matter." Jumba says before going back to search through his closet as he had spent the next five minutes doing this.

"...I think you have more than enough time to explain to us on what's going on," Joanna says deadpannedly after she and the others cleaned themselves up with Jumba's Quick-Shower Machine that he has attached to the wall nearby.

"No, I don't!"

"Actually, you do," Roland says blankly as a frustrated Jumba turned to him.

"Look, can all of you just please be quiet until I find the remote for my Spaceship?!" Jumba asked in exasperation before turning back to look through his closet.

"Why do you need the remote for the Spaceship-Ow! My only good eye!" Pleakley asked with a raised nonexistent eyebrow before yelping in pain as Jumba carelessly tossed his shirt backwards, and it lands on Pleakley's head as the Bald-Headed Evil Genius beamed after being able to find the remote.

"Aha, I found it!" Jumba says while turning around as he pressed a button on the remote and a frantic Joanna, Roland, Logan, and Pleakley, after he took off Jumba's shirt, ran over to grab the Four-Eyed Alien's arms as they were all teleported to the Trollberg Woods, specifically in front of Jumba and Pleakley's Cloaked Spaceship as Jumba pulled out his keys and pressed a button on it as the hatch opened up and the catwalk appeared.

"Jumba, seriously, you're scaring us. What is wrong with Stitch?" An irritated yet concerned Kaisa asked as a stoic Jumba simply said nothing and started marching up to his Ship as the others followed.

"Damn it, Jumba, stop being so secretive and tell us what's going on with Stitch already!" Joanna ordered, but Jumba once again ignored the group as he made his way over to his Supercomputer and turned it on.

"Oh, wait, I know what's going on here, you don't trust us, do you?!" An angry, betrayed Pleakley asked as Jumba simply ignored him and continued messing around with his Super Computer by pressing various buttons to activate a program. "Fine! You won't tell us what's going on, we won't tell you something that Joanna had told us!"

"Wait, what? You know about the 'secret' as well?" A shocked Roland asked as Pleakley nodded while crossing his arms with a huff as a pale-faced Joanna and a confused Logan turned to him.

"What secret?" Logan asked suspiciously while turning to glare at a sweating Joanna as Pleakley nodded smugly.

"Yep, I had found out about the secret when I heard Roland and Joanna talking about it in her Room two months ago, and it's a very juicy secret that could affect the whole family, especially Hilda, but I've refused to tell anyone, including Jumba," Pleakley says while glaring at Jumba as a panicking Joanna raised her arms.

"Wait, Pleakley, please, don't tell everyone that Hilda is really-,"

"Alright, alright, the big secret is that Roland and Joanna had sex during the whole Weather Spirit thing, okay?! There! There's the big secret, you big guvna!" An exasperated Pleakley screamed while crossing his arms in a huff as a bewildered Joanna, Roland, Logan, and Kaisa blinked a couple of times in shock.

"Wait, what? That's it? Joanna and Roland had sex? Big deal. We all knew about it." Kaisa says with an amused grin while crossing her arms as a flabbergasted Joanna and Roland turned to her.

"Wait, you did!?"

"Yeah, we did. It wasn't that hard to figure out since you two seem to have gotten closer and are positively glowing, but that's beside the point. Joanna? Were you saying something about Hilda?" Logan asked Joanna, who froze as she sweated nervously.

"Uh...well...you see...I..."

"Finally, it's done." An impatient Jumba says after being able to set up some kind of program on his Supercomputer as it ejected out some kind of small pad that was glowing green, and Jumba was quick to rummage into his pocket as he pulled out some blue fur.

"What's that?" A curious Pleakley asked, doing a 180 from his melodramatic personality from before, as Jumba turned to explain to him and the rest of the group.

"A sample of 626's Fur," Jumba says while placing Stitch's Fur on the pad as it then zoomed back inside Jumba's Supercomputer and a compartment on the roof opened up as a huge TV Screen slowly lowered down. "Now, we will see what is going on with 626," Jumba says as the others perked up and glanced up at the TV Screen as it blared to life and showed a green screen with the image of a Blue Chibi Stitch placed beside another image of what seems to be his Power Cell, which basically resembled a giant green emerald, but the weird thing about it is that the top half of the emerald slowly turned white, signaling that 20% of Stitch's Power Cell was drained as a horrified Jumba screamed in frustration and slammed his fists down at the dashboard. "NO! JUST AS I FEARED! THOSE IDIOT POLICE! WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN SO SOON?! WHY!?" Jumba screamed while closing his eyes and clutching his head in anguish as the heavily worried Adults ran over to stand by his side.

"Jumba, what are you talking about?" Pleakley asked as Jumba remained silent and glanced down at the ground somberly as Joanna walked over to place her hand on Jumba's shoulder.

"Jumba, please, if there's something wrong with Stitch, you have to help us. Not only for our sake since we're his family, but for Hilda's as well." Joanna says as Jumba opened his eyes and turned to eye the group with tears in his eyes as he then wiped away his tears and took a deep breath to calm himself down as Jumba stood up straight and turned to FINALLY explain to the group what's going on with Stitch.

"Okay, I will tell you all the truth. You see, one year ago, when I first created 626, something...horrible has happened to him."

~[Flashback: One Year Ago]~

"HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!" A 500-year-old Jumba laughed evilly as we cue to his Evil Lab, which was a huge cream-colored egg-shaped building placed in a large asteroid that was floating around in space and the place even had an invisible barrier that provided the occupants inside with some precious oxygen as we zoom into Jumna's Lab and see said person currently standing in front of a big lever as he pulls it down and, immediately, a huge bolt of green lightning down on a glass container machine as it contained what seems to be a big swirl of blue goo/smoke. "HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!" Jumba says while still laughing evilly as he could be seen wearing his usual lab clothes with a pair of goggles that had four lenses as, after zapping whatever was inside of the glass container for ten straight minutes, Jumba then pulls up the lever and shuts off his zapping machine as he suddenly clutched his throat and coughed madly.

"Argh, blegh, I should really stop laughing evilly whenever I create an Experiment. It really hurts Jumba's throat." Jumba says while rubbing his throat a bit before walking over to the Glass Container Machine as he pulled up his goggles and was amazed to see what seems to be a small dark blue furry creature that was currently hiding in his ball form. "Oh, can it be? Have I finally created my desired, greatest Monster of all time?" An eager Jumba asked as the ball suddenly cooed and whimpered as it unrolled itself, revealing it to be a recently born Experiment 626 awakening from his birth with his alien appendages popped out on display as he smacks his lips and looks around confusedly.

"Oh, wow, it's so cute, so fluffy..." Jumba trails off as he inspected Experiment 626, who had slowly gotten more bearings in his new environment, as he stood up from the glass floor and turned to stare at his Father curiously as 626 sniffs him. "...WHERE DID I GO WRONG?!" A horrified Jumba screamed in pain and anguish, startling Experiment 626 as he slammed back against his glass cage and watched on as his Creator sobbed like a child as 626 slowly grows more agitated by this and hissed loudly as he throws himself against the glass container and roared like a wild animal, this time startling Jumba from his crying fest as he stared at a snarling Experiment 626 in mild shock...before beaming excitedly as he cheered.

"Whoo-hoo! Yes! Wow, what a relief! I thought I had to dispose of you like the others for a minute there, bud!" A relieved Jumba says with a warm smile as Experiment 626 ignored him and started crawling around his glass cage, trying to find a way to break out as Jumba leans over to him. "Okay, my latest creation, your name is Experiment 626. Isn't that nice?" Jumba asked with a fatherly, baby tone as Experiment 626 responded by flipping him off. "Yes, yes, excellent. Now, repeat after me, 626...Mela Nala Kwesta (I want to destroy),"

"M-Mega...Nala...Kewsta! (I-I...want...to destroy!)," Experiment 626 growled out while scratching against his glass cage relentlessly as Jumba grinned widely and laughed proudly as he clapped in delight.

"Yes, yes, perfect! Now, before Jumba has you go out there and wreak some havoc, your Power Cell must be fully charged first." Jumba says while walking over to what seems to be a huge plug attached to the wall as Jumba yanks it out of the outlet and made his way over to plug the cord into 626's Glass Container Machine. "That's the most important part in your creation because if Jumba doesn't have your Power Cell charged up, you will simply die in a day. Can't have that now, can't we?" Jumba says to 626 with a playful wink as the Duo then turned their heads and spotted a huge TV Screen in front of them blaring to life as it showed a green screen with the image of a Blue Chibi Experiment 626 placed beside another image of his Power Cell as it was currently pure white, but thanks to Jumba's intervention, 626's Power Cell began steadily charging.

"Now, while we wait, Jumba has two big surprises for you. Close your eyes for your first surprise." A grinning Jumba says while walking over to the Glass Container Machine as an excited Experiment 626 nodded and closed his eyes...but opened one of them curiously as an amused Jumba wagged his fingers around. "Ah, ah, ah, no peeking...awww, he cheats already." Jumba gushed, looking like a Father proud at his Son being able to learn how to walk, as a pouting 626 closed his eyes, and the Evil Genius pressed a button on the container as it glowed bright green and scanned Experiment 626's body as a flash of green light occurred and, once it dies down, an impatient 626 opened his eyes as he was shocked to see that he was wearing the Alien Outfit that he first wore in the First Chapter.

"Tada! Jumba had it custom built for you! Can't have my greatest creation wreak havoc without looking stylish as well." Jumba says with a wink as a heavily exhilarated Experiment 626 glances down at his new outfit in awe and amazement as it was clearly obvious that he loved his new clothes. "Now for your second surprise, which I think is way better than your first surprise," Jumba says with a gleeful smile on his face as he walks off, and, after being away for a few minutes, the Evil Genius returns back into the room as he was holding onto what seems to be the Experiment Pod Container, which was a spherical metallic device the size of a globe propped up on a rectangular platform with a view screen as this device was created by Jumba himself and its primary function is to store all of his 625 Experiments in their dehydrated forms.

"You see this thing, right?" Jumba asked while gesturing at his Experiment Pod Container as a curious Experiment 626 nodded. "Well, you see, 626, this container holds the future army that you will lead to conquer the Universe. Now prepare for yourself, 626, because this might be a shock to you, but inside of this device contains all 625 of your-," Jumba says before getting interrupted by a loud knocking on his giant metallic doors as he and Experiment 626 turned over to the source of the noise with scared/confused looks on their faces. "Oh, blitznak..."

"Open up! Intergalactic Police!" A Male Voice Rang Out as Jumba froze and sweated nervously as he then ran over to one of his giant Computer Consoles.

"Uh, nobody is home! You can go now!" An anxious Jumba yelled while pressing a button on the console as it suddenly broke apart and morphed around to reveal a large tube underneath as, while it was too small for him to use as an escape route, it was definitely big enough to fit his Experiment Pod Container and Jumba proceeds to promptly drop it down the tube as it disappeared from sight and probably won't return back until two movies and a season from now as Jumba then pressed another button and the console morphed around as it joined together and transformed back into a computer console as it hid the tube.

"You! Don't snitch and tell the Cops what you saw me do!" Jumba ordered Experiment 626, who nodded and zipped up his mouth as he couldn't help but have a rather good liking to the word 'Snitch' for some weird reason but couldn't think about it too much due to him and Jumba noticing that the steel door was heating up as, before they could react, the doors were blown apart, and Five Intergalactic Police Officers rushed into the room as they aimed their Plasma Blasters at a stunned Jumba.

"You are under arrest! For Illegal Genetic Experimentation!" One of the Intergalactic Police Officers shouted while aiming his blaster at the Evil Genius, who narrowed his eyes at him irritably as he stood in front of Experiment 626 protectively.

"No! You idiots! You will ruin everything-Argh!" Jumba screamed angrily before screaming in pain as Two Intergalactic Police Officers ran over to tackle him to the ground with a Third One running over to cuff him as the Other Two made their way over to a snarling Stitch.

"Yeah, yeah, tell it to the Council." The Intergalactic Officer says while finishing cuffing Jumba as he helped out his comrades on lifting him up from the ground and started dragging him away as the Evil Genius struggled to break himself free, but then stopped as his eyes widened in pure horror at the sight of the Two Intergalactic Officers messing around with the Glass Container Machine.

"NO, NO, STOP! WAIT! HIS POWER CELL IS NOT FULLY CHARGED YET!" Jumba screamed just as one of the space cops was able to pull on the cord and yanked it out of the machine, causing the lights in the lab to blare red as the Huge TV Screen beeped red multiple times.

"WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! THE POWER CELL CHARGING AMINO SEQUENCE WAS PREMATURELY INCOMPLETED! CURRENT ILLEGAL GENETIC EXPERIMENT, WHO IS CURRENTLY ASSIGNED AS EXPERIMENT 626, POWER CELL IS NOT FULLY CHARGED! THE ESTIMATED LIFE CYCLE FOR EXPERIMENT 626 IS APPROXIMATELY FIVE YEARS!" The TV Screen exclaimed as a crying Jumba screamed in pure shock and anguish.

"NO! YOU BASTARDS! LET ME GO! I HAVE TO HELP FULLY CHARGE HIM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE! LET ME GO!" Jumba ordered as he struggled to break free from the Intergalactic Policemen's hold, but failed as the others went over to help drag him out of his Lab, ignoring his protests and squirming as a sobbing Jumba screamed. "WHAT WILL BECOME OF MY LITTLE MONSTROSITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"

~[Flashback Over]~

"...And now, because of those idiots, 626's Circuits are going haywire!" Jumba exclaimed while spreading out his arms for emphasis as Pleakley gasped in shock.

"That's why he was freaking out back at the Apartment!"

"He can't control it! These Glitches of his happen at pure random and are only accelerated by his emotions! The more negative his emotions are, the more frequent and violent the Glitches will become! And if this continues, it will cause his poor Power Cell to overload with pure energy and lose more of its charge while simultaneously overheating his circuits until they get burnt out, and, if that happens, Experiment 626 will blow up like a Supernova!"

"But, wait, if all of that is true, then why didn't Grand Councilwoman inform Joanna and the others about this?" A confused Logan asked as a surprised Joanna turned to him.

"You know about the Grand Councilwoman?" Joanna asked since she had never told him about her.

"Yeah, Hilda and Stitch told me about her a while back, but even then, I had met up with Grand Councilwoman in the past when I saved the Planet once and convinced an Alien Race that Mosquitos were an endangered species," Logan explains as a surprised Pleakley turned to him.

"Wait, that was you?! Hey, wait, why do you mean by 'convince'?" Pleakley asked with a sharp glare while placing his hands on his hips as, before an awkward and sweating Logan could say anything, the group's attention was diverted over by Jumba as the Former Evil Genius placed his hand on his chin thoughtfully and began pacing around.

"But there's something that Jumba can't wrap his head around. Why are the Glitches happening now and not later?! My Supercomputer back at my Lab in Space estimated that 626 has at least five good years before the Glitches occur!"

"Maybe your Supercomputer is wrong?" Kaisa suggested as Jumba shakes his head with a glare.

"No, no, the Supercomputer back at my Real Lab was top-notch. Way better than the one Jumba has here on the Ship. It's never wrong, which means that some type of outside force had accelerated 626's Glitches and started draining his Power Cell at an alarming rate."

"Look, Jumba, finding out what caused Stitch's Glitches to accelerate is not important right now. What is important is finding out how to cure Stitch of his Glitches." A sternly glaring Roland stated while placing his hands on his hips as Logan nodded and turned to Jumba.

"Yeah, can you fix him?"

"I have to, Blonde-Haired Man, or else my little 626 will shut down...for good," Jumba says somberly with a tense silence ranging out as a gasping Joanna spoke up.

"Oh, no...this is bad...really bad," Joanna says with a horrified expression on her face as she took a couple of steps back, and Roland turned to try and comfort his Girlfriend.

"Joanna, trust me, we're all worried about Stitch too, but-,"

"No, no, you guys don't understand. This is not only a problem for Stitch, but for Hilda as well." Joanna says with everyone staring at her in bewilderment as she was quick to explain. "Look, when Martin died all of those years ago, it completely broke Hilda, and I'm not talking about her just being sad and everything. No, it literally broke her, both mentally and physically. For a full year, Hilda had a full mental breakdown and became a shell of her former self. Hilda barely ate, slept, or talked. She just laid on her bed as if she was comatose, and I was really scared that I had lost not only my Husband but my Baby Girl as well." Joanna says with tears running down her eyes as the Gang was shocked by what they heard, never imagining that a sweet girl like Hilda suffered THAT hard from the loss of her Father as it was only now that they realized how much Martin's Death had affected her, much more than they initially thought.

"I don't know how it happened, but eventually, I was out on a walk with Hilda to try and cheer her up and have her return back to her normal self, but I didn't have much luck. It wasn't until I lost Hilda and reunited with her a few hours later that I got my Baby Girl back. She was able to speak again and slowly started eating and sleeping more and had even gotten her Adventurous Spark back and started being like her usual self again...well, sort of, but I will explain that another time. Anyway, I was so scared that something like that could happen again, and I'm afraid to say that if we don't find a way to cure Stitch of his Glitch, we will lose not only Stitch but Hilda as well...for good." Joanna says while staring up at the Monitor showing the progress of Stitch's Power Cell as the others do the same and they all then share a melancholy look as Jumba and the rest of the boys then realize the great obstacles that they have to endure, but the great question is, will they prevail? Stay tuned to find out, dear readers.

And done! I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter, and I can't wait to write Part 2 to Hilda and Stitch 2: Stitch has a Glitch soon.

Anyway, as always, I will catch you all later.
