Chapter 4: Miracle's Birth

Answering reviews:

Ovni: Hopefully the last chapter was entertaining and interesting. I know this one will be as well.

nukerjsr: Glad I shocked another one. You bet I'm gonna keep writing.

Anonymous but Impressed: Thanks for yet another great review. You said some interesting things. Don't be surprised if your suggestion does find a way into the story.

Baal 626: Glad you asked. There will be a description for how the new body looks in this chapter, and an artist by the name of Chiyaniwatori at deviantART was kind enough to actually draw out the forms. In my profile, there will be a link to both pictures of her.

This chapter will be back in the third person POV. Also, Charlie (Experiment 626-2) belongs to Bohrok127, and is used with permission. This update is a birthday present for him. Happy birthday Boh! Bold, italics, and bold italics are the same. Now, here is Chapter 4.

2 days after Angel/Dante returned with Stitch…

"All right 624! I am being finished!" Jumba announced.

Stitch and Angel/Dante walked into Jumba's room, to see what he had been able to do. On a table lay an experiment that looked a lot like Angel, except with dark blue fur, and white wings coming out of her shoulders.

"Ooooh… looks similar to your original body, yet better…" Stitch told Angel, smiling.

She blushed, but it was impossible to tell behind Dante's red fur.

"Yes 626, does look quite similar to 624's body. However, new body, Experiment 630, is anything but similar."

"630?" Stitch asked.

"Yes. Ideas for Experiments 628 and 629 were too far along to change, so I started fresh with 630," Jumba told him, a half-truth of sorts.

"So you covered everything I asked you to put in, right?" Angel inquired.

"Of course. In fact, all of that was being finished yesterday. But then I was being more genius, and decided to throw in some more things that you might like or need. I have the ability to lift 2,000 times your weight, a few psychic abilities, and those little odd powers that you were asking for."

"Good."

"Then I added in some more. In this body, you are also having control of fire, water, wind, and lightning. That alone is powerful, but match that with a full range of psychic abilities, and you have some major destructive abilities. I also threw in some more oddball powers similar to those you asked for, which I am sure you are to be liking. Your wings are capable of actual sustained flight; they are not just being there for show. And then there's the ability that is most genius yet. A demonic form."

"Demon form?" Stitch and Angel asked together.

"That is correct. Is only accessible in time of great need or anger. Your body will have three major changes to signify this transformation. Fur color will change from dark blue to a brighter red, the feathers in your wings will shrink and will make wings look like dragon's wings, and your antenna will withdraw into your head until they represent demon's horns."

Angel asked, "What happens then? Will I go berserk when that happens?"

Jumba laughed, and then answered, "No, not at all. Berserker experiments are a bad thing. You, 630, will gain double the strength of your angel form, both physically and ability-wise."

Stitch gave a low whistle in surprise, and Angel grinned.

"Wow Jumba," she told him, "when you go to do something, you go all out!"

"I am not being evil genius for nothing," he replied.

"Well Dante, its time for me to give you full control of your body. I'll see you in a bit, after I get into my new body."

"Okay Angel. See you in a bit."

"Don't call me Angel anymore. I'm going to take a new name."

"What's it going to be?"

"You'll have to wait and see."

Angel left Dante's body, and entered her new body as Experiment 630. After a couple minutes, she opened her eyes, stretched out, and smiled at Stitch and Dante.

"Well guys, it worked."

"I'm glad it did…" Stitch told her, standing next to her. "I've missed being close to you, Angel."

"Not Angel anymore, Stitch."

"Why not?"

"Because that name reminds me so much of the bad things I did to you and everyone else. I want to drop those deceptive memories, and start anew."

"So if you're not Angel anymore, than what is your name?"

"Call me… Miracle," she answered, kissing him.

Stitch blushed, but returned her kiss softly.

"What was that for?" he asked, after breaking the kiss.

"That was the kiss I owed you for being so kind."

Suddenly there was a knocking at the door.

"Wonder who's here so early?" Stitch asked, as he, Dante, and Miracle headed downstairs to see.

Dante opened the door, and received a slight shock. At the door stood an experiment that looked almost like a mirror image of Stitch, except he was orange colored instead of blue.

"Who are you?" Dante asked the orange Stitch.

"It's okay Dante, I know him. Hey Charlie!" Stitch greeted the experiment.

"Hey. How's it going, bro?" Charlie replied, entering.

"'Bro?'" Miracle asked, confused.

"Long story, and now's not a good time to explain it. Dante, Miracle, this is my 'brother', Charlie, Experiment 626-2. Charlie, meet Dante, Experiment 627, and Miracle, Experiment 630."

Charlie smiled as he shook hands with Dante.

"I heard that you were designed to be pure evil."

"Well, that used to be true, but with some help, I broke through," Dante answered, laughing.

The smile turned to a nervous grin as he shook Miracle's hand.

"I haven't heard of you. You look very pretty, though," he told her, blushing bright orange.

She smiled at him, shook his hand, and answered, "Thank you for your kind words Charlie. I used to be Experiment 624, but it's a long story."

This took him by surprise.

"You used to be Angel? The one that Stitch talked about all the time?"

"Ih," she answered, looking over at Stitch questioningly.

"Anyways," Stitch said, glaring at Charlie slightly, "what brings you all the way from the other side of the island?"

"I was wondering if you were busy, and if I could come over and visit my big brother."

"Well… knowing my luck, I probably will be busy later on. Even with Hämsterviel gone and dead, there are still a number of cousins left to be found and reformed to good."

"Oh… that's alright… I was just wondering… I'll go back home now."

"That's not necessary," Miracle cut in. "I'm probably going with to help Stitch, and I don't know what Dante's gonna do. Why don't you come along and help?"

Charlie started, "I'd love to!" But then he looked down, and continued, "Except for the fact that a failed experiment like me shouldn't get in the way of more capable experiments like you three."

"But Lilo's not an experiment, and she helps out just fine," she persisted.

"Yeah, well… I just can't, okay? I'd probably just screw things up…"

'Plus Stitch obviously wants me far away from you… not like I could ever compete…' Charlie thought sadly, turning around, and heading out the door.

"Charlie!"

"Miracle… you'll just have to leave him be… Charlie tends to be a bit sensitive about things."

"But Stitch! He's your brother, you're just gonna let him go off like that?"

"Trust me… it's just easier to let him have time alone. He'll get things in order soon enough anyways. He always does."

Dante seemed to have something on his mind.

"You gonna come with us Dante?" Stitch asked him.

"No… I think I'll pass this time… I've got something I want to take care of first."

"Fair enough. Should we go looking for experiments, Miracle, or do you want to do something else?"

"I want to see how exactly you go around reforming them… It might give me a chance to test out some of these powers."

"See you two later!" Dante told them, as he went out the door.

"Later Dante!" they called.

With Dante…

Following the tracks the orange experiment had made, Dante made his way back towards a small brick house in the woods.

'Obviously Charlie didn't want to leave on his own… something's up. I'm going to find out what.'
