Chapter 13

625 and 626

Lilo was with Marie in the teleportation pod,'' Marie, what are you doing here?''

Marie looked at her friend,'' 625. He's my dog.''

'' 625, was the brave dog you were talking about?''

'' He was my friend. He was always there for me.''

Gantu was listening to the whole entire conversation. He saw how sad Marie was.

He never knew how much 625 meant to Marie and he took him away from her. Gantu began to feel guilty again.

'' 625 is supposed to be a lazy coward that makes alot of wisecracks and sandwiches'', Lilo said.

'' He said a couple of wisecracks to me, but he does have feelings. He stood by my side through everything, and he comforted me when my father just died,'' Marie sighed, as tears formed in her eyes.

Lilo became sad too. Both of her parents died in a car accident, and she knows what it feels like to grieve over the loss of a loved one.

Gantu's eyes began to fill with tears. He was often rejected by his father but losing one was even worse.

Hamsterveil looked in the room where Stitch and 625 were supposed to be in,'' Gantu! 625 and 626 are gone! How can they escape? This plan was foolproof!''

Gantu got up from his seat and held his blaster in his hand.

'' Search everywhere for those two. I do not want them to escape'', the malicious albino rodent said.

Gantu searched the ship looking for the two genetic mutations. He didn't see them.

625 watched Stitch walk on the walls of the ship,'' Gee, I wish I could do that. Wait. I could.''

'' Goobaja!'', Stitch said, grabbing 625's hand and urging him to walk on the wall.

625 easily walked on the wall,'' I could get used to this, maybe.''

625 could hear Marie's cries through the walls,'' Marie! Don't worry I'm gonna save ya.''

Stitch cleared his throat and lifted one eyebrow,'' I?''

'' Okay then, we.''

'' Emba-chua.''

'' I've got a plan. You distract Gantu and the white coo-coo clock, while I free Marie and Milo.''

'' It's Lilo!''

'' Whatever!''

Stitch went in a different direction to search for Gantu. 625 saw Marie through an air vent but some metal bars were in his way,'' Oh Marie, miss me?''

Marie perked her head up,'' 625? 625!''

625 grabbed two of the metal bars and pulled with all his strength to create a hole wide enough so he could get through. He walked on the walls to get down to the floor.

'' Sandwich Boy? Using his powers?'', Lilo said.

'' Don't call me Sandwich Boy, Kilo!'', 625 said, angrily.

'' My name's Lilo!''

'' I don't care!''

'' I'd knew you'd save us! '', Marie said.

625 climbed to the top of the teleporter pod and pulled the 'claws' that held the glass part if it down. Then he pulled off the glass. The glass shattered when it hit the floor.

Marie held her arms open and gave 625 a hug,'' You look different.''

'' Yeah, yeah I know. Must be the extra arms'', 625 said, as he hugged Marie back.

625 didn't expect what Marie gave him after that. A kiss on the nose.

'' Awwww, Marie'', 625 said, as he blushed a bright red.

'' Where's Stitch?'', Lilo asked.

'' Ah-chooga moopa! '', Stitch called out.

'' What'd he say?'', Marie asked.

'' He said everyone out! There's the reason why!'', 625 shouted.

Gantu pointed his blaster at Lilo and Marie.

625 went in front of them,'' No! You are not going to hurt them!''

'' It's not you I want. Where's Hamsterveil? Sorry I pointed my blaster in front of you guys'', Gantu said, honestly.

'' Behind you GETTING INTO THE BLUE POLICE CRUISER!'', 625 screamed.

'' What?'', Gantu shouted.

Hamsterveil grabbed a blaster and hopped into the cruiser he used to escape from the prison,'' Gantu, you have failed me! Guess what? You're fired!''

'' Like I care, Hamsterwheel'', Gantu said.

'' It's Hamsterveil! Hamsterveil! And just for that you are going to be destroyed!''

He took out his blaster and pointed it at Gantu.

625's heart raced,'' You're not going to get away with this!''

He ran to the kitchen and grabbed a sub sandwich that he made before he ran away.

He went up to Hamsterveil with rage and anger in his eyes.

'' What are you up to 625!'', Hamsterveil shouted,'' Get out of my way!''

625 answered,'' No.''

Then Hamsterveil pulled the trigger on the blaster and then immediately 625 jammed the sandwich into the blaster.

Gantu grabbed Marie and ran out of the ship. Stitch grabbed Lilo and followed Gantu.

'' 625!'', Marie shouted.

'' He'll be fine! That blaster will explode when it's overloaded. We are not going in there!'', Gantu said to Marie, who was in his hand.

625 and Hamsterveil were watching the blaster that was about to explode.

Hamsterveil had the blaster in his hands,'' 625, I believe this belongs to you.''

He passed the blaster to 625.

'' Me? Well you shouldn't have. I just remembered today's Tuesday, here you go'', 625 said.

He passed the blaster to Hamsterveil. The blaster was accelerating to explode in an alarming rate.

'' Ahh! Tuesday's not a holiday! Here, happy sandwich day!'', Hamsterveil said.

He passed the blaster to 625.

'' Too bad sandwich day isn't an official holiday. Here, happy jerk day!'', 625 said.

He passed the blaster to Hamsterveil.

Hamsterveil screamed since the blaster had only a few more seconds to explode.

'' Wait here. I'll run!'', 625 shouted.

He looked for the nearest exit. Too late. The blaster exploded.

Gantu protected Marie, Stitch, and Lilo by closing his hands, as debris scattered throughout the area.

Gantu's ship was gone. Now it was a pile of twisted metal rubble.

'' 625!'', Marie shouted.

Stitch got out of Gantu's hands and was headed for the debris of the ship. He found Hamsterveil, who was unconscious at the moment. He dragged his body to a bush, then searched for 625. He found him, after he lifted a large piece of metal. 625 was unconscious. Stitch dragged 625's body to Marie.

'' Oh no! He's dead!'', Marie cried. She hugged 625's lifeless body and sobbed,''First it was my father and now you! I'm sorry I said that I didn't want you, but I didn't mean it. You're my best friend, 625.''

Then she heard a familiar voice,'' And you're my best friend too.''
