Chapter 2. Planning

Stitch ran through the night, panting and sweating. He had no idea now what to do. All seemed to be spinning, and for a moment he had a thought that this was a nightmare.

He tore into the house, not caring if he woke people up. They needed to know of the disaster happening in front of their noses. He rode upstairs and grabbed Lilo by the arm. Using all his stength, he picked her up by the arm. She woke up instantly, blinking in confusement.

"Stitch, what are you doing?" Asked Lilo, feeling worried he was in such panic.

"Jumba made a 628!" That was all he could choke out. He looked up, noticing the sun was beginning to shine light on the earth.

He grabbed her, running as possibly fast as he could run. He ran up to the ship. The door was locked. He let go of Lilo's arm and tore the lock off, giving all his power into it. He opened the door. Jumba was tapping the jar again, watching the experiment pound the glass harder, his fist balled tightly.

"Jumba, we know what you're up to!" Lilo yelled at him. Jumba turned at them and shrugged.

"It is a bit obvious just by looking." He said casually.

"Oh, shut it!" A familliar voice rang out. They turned to see Pleakley standing at the doorway in a night gown.

"Eh, Pleakley. What is you doing?" Jumba asked, growing nervous.

"With all the noise Stitch made running through the house? Yeah right!"

Jumba turned back to 628 and smiled in awe.

"Isn't he beautiful?" Jumba said, looking closely at him.

"He looks just like Stitch!" Lilo said, growing impatient.

"But he is different in many ways. He is every power of 626, times ten. Except emotions. That was my weakness in 627." Jumba said.

The room grew quiet. Even 628 had calmed down a little.

"What are we going to do?" Lilo asked.

"Well, I was thinking that we could find one to tame 628?" Jumba said.

Lilo gasped.

"I got it!" She yelled, starting to run off.

"Little girl! Where are you going?"

"To find what's going to tame him!" And she ran off to find what would change their lives.
