Weird Awakening

A/N: Here's chapter 2!

Chiro's ejector seat landed in a tree, while the monkeys all landed nearby. Otto landed in another tree…upside down. Gibson landed on the ground, as did Sprx. Nova landed on Sprx, and Antauri landed on Nova.

"Is everyone okay?" asked Chiro. "Otto?"

"I'm fine, but why is everyone else upside down?"

"Otto, you're the one that's upside down. Antauri?"

"I am also fine."

"Good. Nova?"

"Yeah, except for the fact that I'm a monkey sandwich."

"Alright. Sprx?"

A muffled response of "I'm okay! I'm part of Nova's monkey sandwich!" came from the very bottom of the monkey pile.

"Sprx, if you don't shut up you're gonna get a knuckle sandwich!" Nova shouted.

"Okay…moving on," said Chiro. "Ivy?"

No response.

"Ivy?"

Still no answer.

"Weird. Really weird. I woulda thought she'd found a snake or something and we'd hear her screaming by now."

The Hyperforce looked through the dense forestation for the mutant. Meanwhile, the mutant in question was still in that clearing. She slowly began to wake up. As she opened her eyes, which felt as if they'd been welded down, she saw a whole bunch of green everywhere. Her head felt as though it'd been nailed with a freight train, and everything else hurt as well. Not only that, but her alcohol withdrawal was getting to her, as she could have sworn that she saw some furry dude with a mane, but he wasn't a lion, and a large neon blue dragon.

"What the Guinness?" she asked herself.

"Okay, she's alive," Frus said.

Her eyes suddenly widened as she realized that she had no clue where she was.

"HOLY CRAP!" she yelled, catching the guys off their guard. "WhereamIwhoareyouandwherecanIfindsomealcohol?"

"Okay. You need to slow down a little," Frus said shakily, partially afraid of what he knew had to be an alcoholic psychopath.

"Got any beer or anything?" she asked, left eye twitching.

"Not with us, no."

Needless to say, Ivy was a little disappointed. No alcohol meant that her withdrawal would only get worse. And when she had these problems, things got very bad for others.

"A-a-are ya sure?"

"Yeah."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

"How sure?"

"Very sure."

Ivy cursed to herself in Italian. As she tried to find something to hit her head on in frustration, Frus' curiosity got the best of him. He instantly bombarded her with interested questions.

"Where're you from? What's your name? What's your home like? Are you okay, because that crash looked like it hurt?"

Ygrene laughed at this, as the sight of Frus asking Ivy all of these questions was quite amusing. Ivy wasn't quite as amused and glared at them both.

"Dude, what's your deal?" she asked annoyed. Then, in Frus' face, she screamed, "WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE FIXED, PAL?"

Frus, who had never heard that term in this context, was confused.

"Why? Am I broken?" he asked with an eyebrow raised and a hint of worry in his voice.

Ivy stopped in her psychotic rage to laugh. This struck her as funny."

"Broken? That's a good one!" she laughed. "By the way, the name's Ivy."

"So, uh, Ivy, where are you from?" asked Ygrene.

"Earth. So, what's this place, anyway?"

"Tserof-7."

"Ooookay…as for that crash, my tail kinda hurts, but it's a Tuesday. My healing power'll take care of that. Other than that, just a headache."

She got two blank stares in response, and then explained about how she was a mutant. They seemed to understand after this. Ygrene then decided it was time to leave.

"Well, I suppose I should get back home," he said. "See ya later. Nice meeting you, Ivy…I think."

He flew off for his home planet.

"Wait," Ivy said, now the confused one. "Who was that guy?"

"That's my friend Ygrene. He's from the planet Bantamdiction."

"And who are you?"

"I'm Frus."

"Oh."

That'd be the end of this chapter. Next time, the Hyperforce meets some of the locals, as does Ivy, and we find out just what knocked the Super Robot hurtling out of control.

Frus: I still don't get that whole "fixed" thing.

Ivy: Hey, Beastfire? You wanna tell 'im, or should I?

Beastfire: Knock yourself out.

Ivy: Okay. (whispers it in Frus' ear; his eyes widen in horror)

Frus: They really do that?

Ivy: Oh, yeah.

Frus: Uh…please review.
