Yay! One review! You really like me! cough Ok, this is a really long chapter, so settle down with a cup of coffee while you're reading.


There was a bright light, so bright I thought I'd go blind and I covered my eyes. When the light cleared (and my eyes recovered enough so my vision wasn't blurred anymore) there was a turquoise experiment in the bathtub. It looked a lot like Stitch, only turquoise with a white stomach and around its eyes. It also had dark blue lining around the pink in its ears and a bushy tail tipped with white.

It blinked its big, shining black eyes twice, then looked around the room. When it realized it was in the bathtub it shook itself, sending water spray everywhere. It then noticed me and narrowed its eyes at me. I gulped. But instead of attacking me like I expected it just walked over to the window. It looked back at me and started chuckling softly. That chuckle soon became a giggle, which became laughter. It finally threw its head back and emitted maniacal howling. And then… it disappeared.

I ran over to Lilo's house as fast as I could. I wasn't sure what that experiment actually did, but from that creepy laughter it made I made an educated guess it was bad. And I had to tell her it was activated. I didn't care if they figured out I knew some stuff about them. I ran up the front steps and pounded on the door. I heard a high-pitched voice inside the house, "I'll get it, I'll get it!" The door opened to reveal Pleakley in yet another of Nani's outfits.

I did a double-take (I had been expecting Lilo to answer), but quickly regained my composure. "Ummm... hello. I'm looking for Lilo. Is she here?" I hoped my tone was casual.

"She's upstairs in her room. Who are you?" Pleakley answered warily.

"I'm a friend from school. Can I go see her? Quickly?" I was getting impatient with the one-eyed alien. He finally stepped aside and pointed me down the hall towards the elevator. "Thanks," I said before speed-walking towards it.

The elevator made a "ding" as it reached its destination. I burst out of the elevator into the room. Lilo and her "dog" where on the floor listening to Elvis records and looked up in surprise when I entered.

"Experiment… 628… activated…" I gasped.

Lilo and Stitch shared unsure glances for a moment, and then Lilo turned to me and said coolly, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"You know perfectly well what I'm talking about!" I didn't mean for it to come out so harshly, but now what not the time to play dumb. "And I also know that Stitch is not really a dog. He's an alien originally named Experiment 626."

THAT got their attention. Lilo stood up and said, "Come with me. You, too Stitch."

"Eh," Stitch responded. He followed us into the elevator. It was a tight squeeze, but thank God it was only a short ride.

Lilo led me to a door at the end of the hallway. She knocked and a familiar Russian accented voice floated though the door. "Who is it?! Am working on something."

"That can wait, Jumba!" Lilo shouted back. "We need to talk to you!" The door opened and Jumba appeared. "What is being so important to be interrupting evil genius work?"

Lilo gestured to me. "Meghan found something that could be another one of yours. She came bursting into my and Stitch's room and proclaimed that Experiment 628 was activated."

Jumba suddenly seemed very interested in the collar of his shirt. "Er… Very well. Come in, little girls and 62… uh, dog." We followed him to his computer. He typed in a few things and a screen came on to reveal 628's picture and some stuff about him.

"That's the one!" I exclaimed. Lilo seemed exasperated.

"Jumba! I thought you stopped making experiments after 627!"

Jumba chuckled nervously. "Is being bad habit, I'm afraid. What is amazing me is how little blonde girl knew it was being mine…"

Now it was my turn to be nervous as everyone in the room stared at me for a moment. "Never mind," Lilo said after a moment. "What does it do, Jumba?"

"Is being ice experiment. Can create ice from nothing and change to mist at will. Is able to change global climates and plunge earth into ice age!" Jumba started laughing manically.

"No, Jumba. That's bad." Lilo sighed. "So it's like Slushy?"

After Jumba had clamed down enough to speak he said,"In manner of speaking. Experiment 628 is much more powerful and dangerous. Can also lift 1,000 times size and sneak around almost undetected."

"Goobaja!" Stitch said. I guess he felt free to speak as I had figured out he was an alien.

"You're right, Stitch. We need to get going." Lilo grabbed a glass containment tube and started heading out he door.

"Wait!" I exclaimed. "I want to go with you."

Lilo seemed uncertain, so I provided some reason. "I activated it, so I should help you find it."

"If little girl is wanting to go, should." Jumba said reasonably.

"Fine," Lilo agreed.

"Bootifa," Stitch nodded.

"Wait. Will be needing these." Jumba tossed us some snow jackets.

We put them on and headed outside and gasped at what we saw. Everything was covered in ice!


Whew! Looong chapter. But worth it, I think. Here's 628's bio. He's turquoise with white stomach and white around black eyes. He also has a bushy tail tipped in white. His nose, claws, toes, markings on his back, and lining around ears are dark blue. He's mischievous, loyal, and protective. He also loves to drink mocha with marshmallows in it. (Unusual as he's an ice experiment.)
