A/N: Okay, so I'm winding down the story here but don't fear it's not over yet! I hope you like this chapter! Now, let us thank those kind compassionate people out there who reviewed my last chapter!

Crystal Sapphire: Yah, I'm sure Sparks likes Nova. But is the feeling mutual? Will we ever know? And yeah, that's what I was trying to imply in ch. 1. Get ready for the next chapter and thanks for reviewing!

Kiozona.pop: Glad it's getting good. Wait until you see the cliffhanger at the end of this chapter!

AnimeFanGirl11: Glad you liked the talk. I can just imagine Gibson and Sparks having a serious conversation. They can be cool that way I think.

Beastfire: Run Ivy and Sparks! Run before they catch you! Ha ha, here's new chapter!

Lmann: I don't think my characters are that OOC. As for Sparks being mature, the loss of a loved one can make anyone act more maturely, trust me, I know. And when did I make Otto smart? I said he was observant, but not smart. If I ever make Otto smart, someone needs to smack me or point it out in my story so I can fix it. And don't worry Sparks fans, he'll be back to his immature self by the end of the story I promise! And, the only time Antauri will act immature and crazy will be when Krinkle switches his mind with a three year old.

Chell: Glad you like my story so far. And if you've already got a chapter of your story written, go for it! As long as you have a beginning, middle, and an end planned out, post it and see what happens! It sounds okay and I promise I'll review if you do. Glad you like my fluff!

NovaFangirl: (winks) Will emotions break out? Only time will tell!

A Fan of Romance: Yay for getting your own account! Are you going to write a story? And here's the next chapter. Sorry it took so long, but like I said, softball takes a lot of time!

Okay, here's chapter 7 hope you like it, and don't forget to review!


Chapter 7

"So, what's news?" asked SPRX-77 walking out of his red tube and into the room.

"We're approaching planet Salandra Four. Obtaining a visual now," answered Gibson.

All of the monkeys approached the front screen to look.

Otto gasped, "Wow, it looks just like it did in the book."

"Well," began Scrapperton, "if it isn't the old homestead. I believe I'll take this opportunity to go and uh… refuel myself."

All of the monkeys looked at him strangely. Otto pointed him in the direction of the nearest bathroom, and then returned to the rest of the monkeys. Scrapperton was singing to himself a little song as he walked to the restroom, "Skeleton king, my skeleton king,…" (A/N: If you didn't see the "super robot monkey bowl" you wouldn't get it. It's not meant to imply anything, just to bring up that stupid halftime show again so if you didn't see it forget about it.)

"Well Sparks, it appears that you were right. Scrapperton did lead us to the correct planet. Perhaps he did change," Gibson noted.

"Anyone can change their ways." Said Antauri, "Sometimes we must sacrifice our pride to induce progress."

"Though I still don't understand how or why this planet hasn't appeared on any galactic maps," Gibson wondered, "It may be in a different galaxy but it isn't that far beyond those we know of."

"Maybe they just respect their privacy," Otto suggested.

"Otto please, a desire for privacy could hardly cause an entire planet not to appear on any galactic maps. Even uninhabited planets which wouldn't even work for a camping trip or vacation spot appear on galactic maps."

"Well maybe there's some kind of map-making clause or something," Otto said, trying to defend his answer.

"I highly doubt it."

Sparks watched the two bicker, deciding not to get involved. Then he walked over to Antauri.

"Well, we're almost there. We can just get Nova and go."

"I hope it is that easy, my friend, but we never know what kind of evil can lurk in an unknown world."

"Yeah, but according to Otto, this place doesn't have any technology. Whatever "evil" is down there, we can take it."

"If violence is the answer, then we may be able to 'take it', but you never know Sparks. I do know this: we should never let our guard down."

"Well, obviously." Sparks pointed the word obviously like it was well obvious. (A/N: whatever. XD)

Just then Scrapperton returned.

Gibson turned away from his continuing argument with Otto to ask Scrapperton a question. "So, where should we land here?"

"My suggestion, blue monkey, is to avoid being seen by landing in the water somewhere. The water should be shallow enough about 50 miles off the shore," Scrapperton pointed to a place on the screen, "here. Then we can 'fly' or whatever it is you do to the biggest city here. We can get hints as to the gold monkey's presence or at least hear some rumors concerning her presence."

"So basically," Chiro explained, "we land far enough away that they can't see us, and then we ask some people where to find Nova."

"Oh! Well that makes more sense," exclaimed Otto.

"I understood what he said perfectly," Gibson began.

"Well good for you Mr. I-have-read-the-dictionary-twelve-times," Otto said back.

"You shouldn't have to read the dictionary to understand the English language Otto, if you simply had a third grade reading level…"

"Hey! Do you know what kind of reading level it takes to read a mechanics guide? I'd like to watch you try to tell me which wrench is which!"

"Shut up you guys! You're givin' me a migraine!" SPRX-77 yelled.

"Well, excuuuuuse me!" Otto replied.

Suddenly, the super robot hit the water's surface causing all 4 monkeys, the boy, and the metal menace, to fall over.

"Yes, turbulence from water always is a bit surprising, tick tock."

"Let's get moving then. Monkeys, mobilize!"


Nova kept running deeper into the wooded area. When she thought she was finally devoid of her followers, she stood back onto two feet and began to walk. She took a second to take in the beauty around her. There were some beautiful animal and plant species she had never seen before. 'Gibson would have a field day.' Nova thought. She took a second to take in the beauty around her, then began thinking of ways to get off of this planet. Suddenly, it hit her! She remembered how to reinitiate her fists. She took of her rocket pack so that she could get into the circuitry in her back, then felt around to find the disconnection. Once she found it she simply found the override switch, and turned it on. Immediately, she ejected her fists. Oh, this was a sight for sore eyes. Now she knew she could fight Andy if he found her.

"Wow," she spoke to herself, "for once Spark's conspiracy that the Skeleton King would try to turn of our hands came in handy!"

She put her rocket pack back on and tried to turn it on, but it was beyond repair.

She decided that she was going to have to try and make it to the ship that Andy had brought her here in. She walked through the woods, heading north.

"I wonder why Chiro hasn't tried to contact me again." She sighed, "Well, maybe they had some kind of big fight or something and couldn't. Or maybe they haven't progressed at all. I don't know. I hope Chiro updates soon."

She kept heading north and made her way out of the large forest. It wasn't far until she was back at the dock where she had first met land on Salandra four. Thankfully, it was still nighttime, so no one was around. She was about to dive into the water to try to locate the large ship, but something quickly caught her eye. It was THE SUPER ROBOT!

At least she thought that was what it was, it was so hard to see. But she could have sworn from the location of the rockets and the general shape, that it was. Then, she finally got the message she had been wanting to hear.


Chiro concentrated all of his power primate energy again. And he began to talk "Nova. Sorry we, well I, haven't contacted you in a few days. We believe we have landed on the planet where you are being held. It will not take us long to find your location. I…"

Chiro was interrupted by Nova's voice coming through the communicatory "Uh, Chiro, I'm right here, just use the communicator!"

"Nova!" they all yelled in unison. All five stood on top of the brain scrambler, looking towards land. Scrapperton watched, intriguingly.

"Nova, are you okay? You aren't hurt are you?" SPRX-77 was the first to get the word in.

"No, Sparks I'm fine, well all except I can't use my rocket pack."

"A rocket pack problem? No problem! They're easy to fix," Otto offered.

"Nova? What's your current position?" Chiro asked.

"I'm by the dock on the north-eastern edge of the island."

"Perfect. We'll be right there. Then we can bring you back to the super robot and beat the heck outa here!" SPRX-77 said.

"Right. I'll be right here!"


Relief rushed through Nova's body. She would finally be able to be back with her friends. She would be able to sleep in her own room in her old bed, and never have to worry about Calvin again.

She saw six small lights coming toward her. She recognized the rocket packs of her five best friends, and behind them, was, Scrapperton? What was he doing there?


SPRX-77 saw Nova. She looked fine, but he couldn't be sure. He sped in front of the others and landed right in front of her.

"Nova! Thank God you're alright!" He found himself giving her a friendly hug.

"Sparks! It's so good to see another robot monkey."

They simply stared into each others eyes for a second until the others landed and began pestering her with questions.

"What happened?"

"Who took you?"

"What do you believe the maximum velocity was of our craft as it neared the surface? I don't want us to be seen."

"Did they make you eat spam?"

Everyone stared at Otto on this last question, and there was complete silence.

"What? I've heard it's been used as a torture technique!"

"Oh, you guys, I'm just so glad to see you. Let's get going before anything strange happens."

"Now!" yelled Scrapperton.

Suddenly, a boy jumped out from behind a nearby bush with a strange device in his hands. Electric pulses emitted from it and hit the monkeys. They all fell over on the ground.

"Hey!" yelled Chiro, spinning around and looking at the boy.

"What have you done to the monkeys?"

Scrapperton then launched two pads that got stuck to Chiro's back, and sent electricity surging through his body until he, too hit the ground.

"Good job my young apprentice," Scrapperton commended Andy.

"Is he dead?" Andy asked, looking up at Scrapperton.

"No, only shocked. Come, and we will take them to my old house. They will pay for ever defeating me."

"Whatever you say Scrapperton. Hey! You have to come and see all the stuff I made since you left."

"Perhaps. In time."

They then dragged the five monkeys and the boy out of sight.


A/N: Cliff hanger, cliff hanger! Ha ha! I know what's gonna happen and you don't! But don't worry I promise I'll update soon, because it's SPRING BREAK! And we're not going anywhere. Who else is stuck at home during spring break? I feel your pain.

This story is winding down, maybe only two or three more chapters, so last night I had a revelation for my next fic. In this story, Gibson's the hero! Yay! I'll give more updates about that in the next chapters but for now, review pretty pretty please!
