Hello people! Yes, that's right Chapter six is now here! I had a little contest last chapter to see if anyone could guess the villain and (drum roll please) the winner was (gets slip of paper out of envelope) NOBODY ha ha! You're all wrong. Time to see who the true creative mastermind is behind the whole evil scheme. But to torment you some more before telling my deliciously evil story, I must be kind and thank all y'all who reviewed. Yay!

Fire Bearer Kite: Glad you liked the chapter. I think they go after Chiro because he's the leader. Without him, the team will fall apart, plus (no offense to any Chiro fans out there) he seems to be the weakest. I mean as Skeleton king said humans have "weak flesh, easily crushed by my (enter right word here) wrath". But other than that, I don't really know.

4EverMonkeyFan: Glad you liked. I actually haven't had much time to read fan fictions lately, with finals coming up and my teachers are piling on the homework. I've printed out a few of your latest chapters, but haven't had an opportunity to read them yet. Though I promise I will ASAP. And of course I saw "I, Chiro" what kind of a fan would I be if I hadn't? I actually haven't been able to bring myself to watch it more than two times, even though I have it on tape. I cried both times I watched it. I actually haven't been able to bring myself to watch any of the episodes since then. I don't really know why, just haven't been in the proper mood I guess. Oh well, the 3rd Season had better start soon. Please R&R again, and enjoy!

Twister 91: Not Skeleton King, not Mandarin, you'll have to read to find out! Glad you like what I've written though. Hope you like this chapter and the secret bad guy.

A Fan of Romance: Ha ha, suspense is part of the game. Then I relieve the suspense by solving the problems presented at the end of the last chapter and replace them with brand new suspense! It's all a big cycle that is used in a good fic. Glad it's working. Hope you like!

Beastfire: Sorry Ivy, but you know what they say "De Nile is more than a river in Africa!"

Crystal Sapphire: Lol. Thanks for the review and the laugh, glad you like my story. Hope you like this newest chapter too, because I think it's the longest one I've written (at least for this story) enjoy!

Raven the Invincible: Um, I forgive you, but I never received any bad reviews. I only received one, and it wasn't rude. That's odd, though if yours were rude, maybe it's a good thing I didn't get them. Because I didn't delete any. That's odd, very odd. But even if I did get them, I'd forgive you for it anyway! Review this chapter too!

AnimeFanGirl11: Ha ha, yes. But you have to let me have Gibson back now so I can put him in my story. Hey! Where are you going! Come back here with Gibson! What kind of a story will it be if he isn't in it! Thank you. Takes back a rather confused Gibson from AFG11's hands. Hope you enjoy!

DayDreamer9: My, my. So many questions. Well, I can tell you it isn't the Skeleton King! And you'll find out what happens to Gibson, Sparx, and Chiro in this chapter. But the end is not here yet. Hope you like this chapter and hope it leaves you with many questions to ponder throughout your tormented week before I review. Mua ha ha.

Princess Moon Shadow: Not SK, not Mandarin. Glad you 'luv' my story. Sorry to keep you in suspense (or am I? Dun-dun-dun). But here's the new chapter! Hope you 'luv' it too!


Chapter 6

Gibson woke up and clutched his aching head. It throbbed like nobody's business. He blinked his eyes until he could see clearly. He was frightened by everything that he saw.

He was inside of a dark cave, tied tightly to a stalagmite that stuck up towards the ceiling. He struggled to get free, but couldn't. His binds were too strong and tight. He caused lasers to come out of his drills but to his surprise and horror it couldn't break the rope around him.

Next to him, still unconscious stood SPRX-77, him in no better condition than Gibson, himself. He looked around again.

He heard a noise from his right side and looked over to see the being behind everything.

"Oh. He is awake." There stood a monkey no larger than a half of a foot. He had brown fur and green eyes. He war a black shirt with matching pants, tied with a white belt around his waste.

Gibson did a double take towards the small monkey, "Sakko?" he asked, "Well, thank god you lost that terrible costume."

"Quiet," the little monkey said, "I was under cover. It was necessary. Besides, I wouldn't be the mocking one right now, seeing as I have the complete upper hand. Half of your team belongs to me, and soon the other half will as well. Only then shall I attack Shuggazoom city with full force and the entire city will know that size doesn't matter as far as evil goes."

"This may very well be true, but the evidence stands clear. We have defeated you in the past, so therefore we shall be easily able to do so again."

"So you think, but this time I hold the Ace in this game. Besides, once I have your entire team, I'm going to destroy you all so that I no longer have to worry about you. You see, I am going to learn from the mistakes of others. They have simply captured you. I am going to destroy you, slowly and painfully. So enjoy your stay, while you can."

"Hey, look," Gibson turned to see SPRX-77 waking up, "It's the cross-dresser."

"Would everyone STOP bringing that up?" Sakko asked as he stomped out of the room, mumbling to himself.

"What's going on, Gibson?" SPRX-77 asked.

"Nothing good. We need to figure out a way out of here, and quickly. Before that little monkey's plan becomes a reality."


"So it seems that someone, or something is after our companions," concluded Antauri, after listening to the full stories of Nova and Otto. "My guess is that whoever has taken Gibson and Sparks will soon be after the rest of us.

Suddenly, Antauri jumped back, his eyes widening to the size of grapefruits. "Chiro!" he yelled, and started running with all his strength back towards the campsite. Nova and Otto looked at each other for a second, and then went running after him.

As soon as Antauri entered the camp, he stood up on his two feet and gasped. The tent flap was ripped off, and tread marks entered it, and a matching set, looked like whatever machine had entered, also exited into the woods. He ran into the tent. The place where Chiro had lain now stood bare. Gibson's instruments that had been recording measurements were sprawled across the floor.

"Chiro," he now whispered, out of breath, and took deep breaths. He spoke it without a real purpose, except in alarm. He felt so stupid. He had fallen right into the trap. Whoever had done this was very clever; the enemy knew that he would leave the young teen to help his friend. And now, he had Chiro.

Nova and Otto came into the tent as well. "Wha- what happened?" Nova asked aloud.

"No," Otto exclaimed, "not Chiro, too!"

Antauri closed his eyes tightly and clenched his hand into a fist. "How could I be so stupid?" he wondered.

"It's not your fault, Antauri," Nova reassured him, "Whoever did this knew all of our weaknesses."

"We've been played," Otto commented.

"Besides, we're the Hyperforce! We'll find out what's going on, and we'll get the whole team back," Nova said, being optimistic.

"Yes," Antauri said, opening his eyes and glaring at the opposite wall, "we will find whoever did this." Antauri hovered in the air and mediated on the power primate.

Nova and Otto looked up at him. "Wow, sometimes I really wish I could do that," Otto commented.

Antauri returned the ground after a few seconds. "This way," he commanded, and walked out of the tent and into the woods and a swift pace. Nova and Otto followed him without a second thought.


Chiro fluttered his eyes. He couldn't remember what had happened. Something. A creature. A tiger? Yes. That was it. But, what had happened? He remembered something. A mouth. Teeth. Pain. Darkness. They all came rushing to him, these words that he couldn't piece together. There was something significant about those words.

Suddenly he realized how sick and drained he felt. He felt like he had as much power as a boiled piece of spaghetti that had been flung on the ceiling several times, then dropped back into the pot to boil again.

The team. The Monkey Team. A lightening bolt. A fall. He just couldn't figure out how they all fit together. His mind felt as though it had been turned into Quaker Instant Oatmeal.

Heat. Immense heat. Why did he feel so hot? He finally opened his tired eyes. He felt weightless. No, not weightless. Suspended. Was he hanging from something? Yes. Supported by his back. His back? No, he was hanging from something, held up by something attached to his back.

He felt an itch on his left arm. He reached his arm over to scratch it. Or did he? No. He then realized what was happening. He had a large metal cuff around his entire middle abdomen. He couldn't move his arms. Attached to the cuff was a large chain that suspended him from the ceiling of a cave. Beneath him was a hot, bubbling pool of water. A hot spring.

Then, all of the memories flew back to him. He remembered how he had been attacked by the giant tiger, and how he had been hurt by it. He remembered hitting the ground. But, he had vague memories of the monkeys talking to him, but he had no idea why or where.

But he couldn't make the connection between the two places. How had he gotten from the forest to being stuck inside of this cave?

"Monkey team?" he asked. He yelled louder, but couldn't muster very much strength to yell, but it was loud enough to attract some kind of attention.

A little monkey dressed in black entered. Chiro couldn't see his face, but he instantly recognized the voice. "Hello Chiro," he said.

"Sakko? What is going on here? And where's the Monkey Team?"

"They are okay, for now. But don't try anything, or they get it."

"What do you mean? Have you captured them? What have you done with them?"

Sakko pushed a button in the wall revealing a television screen to appear from its concealed spot in the rock wall. Chiro saw Gibson and SPRX-77 tied to the stalagmites on the ground, awake, talking about something. "There. You see? They're fine for now. But don't try anything, boy."

'It's not like I could do anything even if I wanted to,' Chiro thought as he looked down below him at the bubbling pool of water.

"Ah, yes. Silence is golden," Sakko said, smiling, "For now, you're going to be of great use to me."

Chiro, seemingly temporarily defeated, closed his eyes, deciding to try to accumulate more sleep to regain his strength. He knew he was going to need it.


Antauri stood up straight. He had reached a small lake. This is where the Power Primate had led him.

Nova and Otto followed a few seconds behind.

"Hey, this is the same place me and Sparks went fishing," Otto said, grammatically incorrectly.

"Why would the Power Primate lead us here? The only way to go is down," Nova wondered.

Antauri, still silent, activated his re-breather and jumped into the water. Nova activated hers and did a fancy back-flip dive into the water.

Otto shivered at the thoughts of the creature they had last experienced there, and slid into the lake..

All three of them now swam together, using their rocket packs to propel them through the dark, wetness. They also turned on their forehead lamps to provide light. Antauri moved with purpose, not hesitating a minute in knowing where he was going. Nova glanced around her a few times, but trusted Antauri to get them where they needed to go. Otto kept glancing everywhere, and stopped every ten seconds, thinking he heard that big fish again.

Then, out of nowhere, it appeared again. Roaring loudly and targeting Otto. It tilted its head to expose a large spike and swam directly towards Otto, who, now very scared, was frozen with fear.

"Otto! Look out!" Nova yelled, "Move!" she yelled again. He still stood where he was. She then swam with all the speed she could muster and pulled Otto out of the way just in time. The large fish rammed into the rock side of the lake. It turned to face the three monkeys, but still angry with Otto.

The fish tried to attack the same way this time, charging at Otto and Nova. But this time, they were both smart enough to get out of the way, they swam up towards the surface. Unfortunately, the fish had also gained wisdom, and immediately started following them up without crashing into the wall. It opened its large mouth to swallow them when suddenly…

"Monkey Mind Scream!" Antauri yelled, the Power Primate energy swirling out of his mouth and hitting the fish's head. The fish stumbled backwards, shaking its head wildly trying to get the pain and confusion that had just rushed into his mind to stop. He didn't see the wall of rock he slowly neared. He rammed into it with great force, causing rocks on the top of it to break and fall onto him. The rocks carried him down into the depths of the bottomless lake.

"Whew! Thanks Antauri," Nova said.

"Uh! I hate those things. Especially when they hold a grudge," Otto responded.

"Well, it's okay now, or so we can hope," answered Antauri as he looked down to where he had seen the creature fall.

The three monkeys then again regrouped and swam towards their destination. They didn't notice as the large fish now with a large dent in its head, silently neared them and opened its large mouth.

Antauri felt the impending doom and gasped, spinning around to see nothing but the inside of the creature. "Watch out!" he yelled, but it was too late, the fish clamped down its mouth and swallowed all three of the monkeys whole.


Chiro heard Sakko rummaging around with some electronic equipment and it woke him up. Sakko sat in front of the screen with what looked like a joy-stick plugged into the wall where the large screen was. On the screen, he could see water and a strange light. He couldn't tell what Sakko was controlling with the remote, but he had a feeling it couldn't be good.

Sakko laughed maniacally, "And now, stage three of my plan may commence."

On the screen, Antauri saw three small, round, shapes. One was green, one black, and one yellow. As the screen neared, he made out the shapes. It was his friends! His team! Otto, Antauri, and Nova.

Chiro watched as Sakko made the screen face and rapidly approach Otto. He struggled again to get free. He didn't know where they were, but he had to help. Thankfully, Nova pulled Otto out of the way in time and the screen ran into the wall. The screen turned to face Nova and Otto once more, and tried to ram into them. As they swam up, the screen followed.

Sakko hit a button that made a terrible noise fill the room. It sounded like the scream of a large animal, like a giant bird or how he imagined a huge alligator would sound.

Sakko hit a button that exposed to the screen what looked like an upper jaw, with teeth on it. "Guys! Look out!" Chiro yelled.

Sakko spun around, glaring at Chiro. "Do not ruin my concentration!"

Chiro smirked. As Sakko had been speaking he saw Antauri attack the machine with a Monkey Mind Scream, and the screen rapidly headed backwards and ran into a cliff. Large rocks hit the thing and it fell rapidly.

"Grrrrrrr…" Sakko growled. He jumped over to where Chiro hung. He hit a few buttons on the control panel next to the hot spring, which slowly lowered Chiro closer and closer to it until he was mere inches from the water, and Sakko's small monkey face.

"Try anything like that again, and you're in over your head," Sakko threatened.

Chiro rebounded confidently, "Do whatever you want to me, but I'll do whatever I can to help save my team."

"Then you will be quiet," Sakko smoothly responded. He went over to the screen and typed in the number for the room which held Gibson and SPRX-77. He revealed two large lasers which targeted the heads of Chiro's companions. Try something like that, and they get it."

Chiro kept his cool exterior, trying not to expose the hidden fear inside. "Okay, okay."

Sakko raised Chiro to a more comfortable level, then returned to his remote control. Chiro had to watch silently as the screen snuck up upon his three friends, and swallowed them. He once again felt helpless to aid his friends, who were now trapped inside of a giant fish, heading towards the dark cave.


Wow, this is a very long chapter. Cool! I was actually going to make it longer, but I had to go eat dinner and I lost my creative juices. But want to know what I just figured out? I'm one of the original 4 SRMTHG writers for fanfiction that have done more than one SRMTHG story. The 4 of us are Beastfire, AnimeFanGirl11, LMann, and me! Yay! That makes me like, a professional! Or something. Anyway, hope you liked this chapter. Please review! (8 pages w00t!)
