Yo! Xoverguy here! I'm finally ready to do chapter 14! I'll try to update as fast as I can from this point on, but my computers are messed up, so I can't use them much. I'm going to try something very difficult in this chapter: The changing of romantic couples. You want to know what the changes are, then read on, friends!

The final Stretch and the revelation to Keoni

Location: Great Fox briefing room

Everybody was in the briefing room listening to Peppy and the GCW attack plan. They were just finishing.

"So basically, if we get through this last defense, we can go strait into the planet and attack Hamsterville." Peppy paused and looked at everyone present before he continued. "This is no cakewalk, guys. This is a high-risk operation. Everyone who is going on this mission better get into his or her ships. We're approaching the area now."

Okay! Everybody said.

Location: Near Hamster Planet (Where does he get these names?)

There were some scouting ship making a usual round to make sure that everything was normal in the Hamster planet air defense zone. The pilot was reporting in when an unknown laser blast destroyed him and his ship.

"Gottcha! Game Over pal!" Myrtle shouted in her arwing as they entered the area.

"Entering Hamster Planet defense area!" Lilo reported.

"Everybody, stay alert!" Peppy warned from the Great Fox.

"A deadly field of space mines is dead ahead! They're too many to get through safely." Victoria reported.

"Then, everybody, blast smart bombs to the field at will!" Lilo ordered.

The team did so, soon a bunch of explosions the closely resembles giant fireworks was seen. Now the area was clear, and they passed through. Then Myrtle passed in front of Lilo with a bunch of enemies on her tail."

"Man, these guys took me by surprise! I can't get them off me!" Myrtle said in frustration while taking evasive action.

"Don't worry! I got them in crosshairs!" Lilo said as she fired her lasers, obliterating the persecuting ships.

"Alright! Now I feel like blowing up these ships!" Myrtle said and started firing upon the enemy ships. The rest of the team did the same.

One by one the ships dropped like flies and the team was making good progress. Everything seemed well until Victoria's sensors started sounding off like crazy.

"Oh, no! Incoming enemy missiles! And they're big ones!" Victoria warned.

"Blast them fast! They got us locked!" Fox shouted.

There were indeed ten missiles headed straight for them. They were too strong for normal lasers, so they tried smart bombs, but only Victoria's plasma smart bombs destroyed the threat. Then Victoria discovers that a bunch of torpedoes are following her, and that they can actually damage her ship. She takes immediate evasive and defensive action, while at the same time reporting to Lilo.

"Lilo, you and the others better stay away! These torpedoes can actually damage my shields, so that would mean that they could totally destroy your ships! Victoria warned.

"But we can't just leave you like this, you could get hurt! Lilo shouted.

"I can handle this! I know a way to blow them up! I just need a supersonic pulse! Victoria informed.

How do you know all this? Lilo asked.

"I never told you this, but Jumba was also able to raise my IQ level." Victoria explained while destroying the torpedoes.

"Wow, how much? Lilo asked."

"He could only get me up to 150 IQ. Any higher, he said, would cause brain damage, since humans are not used to being super intelligent." Victoria answered.

"Hold on, I'm receiving a message from Peppy." Lilo said as she opened a channel.

So, it's the stupid earth girl. A familiar but unwelcome voice said.

"What the…Hamsterville!" Lilo shouted in horror mixed with irritation.

"I just came to tell you that I have a secret weapon for you and your friends, and with it I shall destroy you! Keep coming…if you dare." Hamsterville finished and the audio link was terminated.

After hearing this, Lilo could feel the rage flowing through her, but she kept it controlled in such a way so she could use it to help her fight better. She then contacts the rest of the team.

"Come on! Let's make that gerbil wish that he NEVER met us!" Lilo shouted.

"Yeah!" Everyone replied.

They were now in the final area, witch was infested with spaceship carriers and they had a lot of laser cannons. But now Lilo was on fire and any carrier she came across was either severely damaged or left without laser cannons. Soon they finally cleared the defense zone, and Lilo got a clear view of the so-called Hamster Planet.

"Hold on! We're entering Hamster Planet air space!" Lilo shouted.

But before they could descend, a gigantic laser beam from the surface shot out, heading directly for Lilo's ship.

"No! Lilo!" Keoni shouted.

Lilo, Nagaaaaaaa! Stitch shouted in his native language.

But it was too late. The beam hit Lilo's ship full force. When the beam subsided, there was no trace of it.

The ship was…vaporized. Keoni said in disbelief. The girl he liked, the girl he wished to protect, was now gone. He then broke down sobbing.

"What kind of boyfriend am I? I couldn't even save her! Now she is gone! Gone!" Keoni shouted while sobbing.

While he was sobbing a bright light caught his attention while at the same time blinding him. When the light faded, he discovered that he was seeing what has just happened.

"Oh, no, please not again." Keoni said in horror. He once again saw the beam hit Lilo's ship. He wanted to turn away but couldn't

But then the discovered that there was something different about this time. Everything was going in extremely slow motion. Keoni looked around and saw Stitch's ship and him inside it. Then he noticed that Stitch was still in mid-shout, but he also noticed that he started to glow yellow, and then turned into what seemed like a strand of light. Then he saw the strand of light blast through the cockpit window without breaking it. The strand of light was heading for Lilo's cockpit and entered. There was a quick flash and Lilo disappeared from the cockpit and the strand of light escaped from the cockpit just nanoseconds before the beam hit, then it made its way and entered the Great Fox Bridge.

"Maybe that means that Lilo is still alive! Saved by Stitch!" Keoni shouted. "But how could Stitch do that?"

He asked himself this when the light completely enveloped him. Now he was in a place where there was only light. After a few seconds he started seeing visions of Lilo and Stitch when they were kids. Some events he saw and remembered from his memory, others he didn't, but there was one thing that stayed the same, Lilo and Stitch were always together.

After a while, the visions ended and Keoni saw Lilo and Stitch in their present ages holding hands together. At first he felt betrayed, but then something subconsciously made him feel like it was meant to be this way. That Lilo was meant for Stitch, not him. He also say that Lilo was happy with Stitch, witch in turn made him feel happy.

"So it was love then." Keoni said. "It was love that enabled Stitch to save Lilo in such an impossible way. I'm very glad. I just wonder…who will be the right one for me?"

As if someone was answering his question, the images of Lilo and Stitch disappeared. In their place was a red-haired young teenage girl with glasses on. She walked up to him and held his hand. Then he discovered who she was.

"Wow, so Myrtle Edmonds is the one that was meant for me?" Keoni asks surprised, but pleased.

The image of Myrtle nods its head in approval. Then the light starts glowing at a blinding intensity.

"Well, thanks a lot, whoever you are." Keoni said before the light became so bright that he had to close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes he was back in the arwing and Myrtle was trying to communicate via comlink.

"Keoni! What wrong with you? Lilo gets killed and you're standing there emotionless? You…" Myrtle was cut off by Peppy.

"Negative! I repeat, Lilo and Stitch are here in the bridge, and they are safe. You guys should retreat and regroup here ASAP! Peppy said.

"Okay!" Myrtle and Keoni respond.

Location: Great Fox Bridge

Everybody regrouped at the ship; they were also relieved that Lilo was alive. Now everybody was planning the final attack on the planet when Lilo walked over to Keoni.

"Keoni, there is something that I have to tell you." Lilo started.

"Let me guess, due to the incident that happened between you and Stitch, you discovered that Stitch has very deep loving feelings toward you and that you share these feelings." Keoni said.

"How did you know?" Lilo asked.

"I think I had a vision. Let's leave it at that." Keoni said.

So you're not upset, or jealous? Lilo asked.

"No, I'm actually relieved. He can protect you better than I can, and as long as you are happy and safe, I'm happy too." Keoni assured.

Thank you, Keoni! Lilo said while hugging him.

"Did he take it okay?" Stitch asked while walking toward them.

"Yeah, he did." Lilo answered.

"Good" Stitch said.

"Stitch, promise me something." Keoni said.

"What?" Stitch asks.

"Protect Lilo, if she gets hurt, I'll come to get you!" Keoni said jokingly. "Seriously, protect her, keep her safe."

"Will do, Keoni." Stitch said. "Lilo, we'd better prepare for the final missions. You should too, Keoni".

"Okay, See ya Keoni, and thank you for understanding." Lilo said as she and Stitch left.

Keoni watched them leave, and a small tear rolled down his eye, but he brushed it off and put up a smug smile. In his heart he was happy, because Lilo was happy, and that was all that mattered. He was lost in thought until he felt a hand on his shoulder. It was Myrtle's.

"Hey, I heard everything, are you sure your okay?" Myrtle asked.

Keoni looked at her with a very large smile.

"Never better! Now let's go and kick that hamster's butt!" Keoni said.

Behind you all the way! Myrtle answered.

End of chapter 14

Okay, that's chapter fourteen. I know that the romance was very sudden. If you didn't like this chapter because of that, you can tell me, but nicely, no flames. I'll try to put some good action on the last chapters, so it's not over. I'll try to update soon. Sorry if you didn't like the change. I'm a big fan of Lilo/Stitch and Myrtle/Keoni pairings. That's my basic reason. See ya! Hope that I didn't drive you away with this chapter. Xoverguy, signing out!
