To Helemenolilolover: No I don't hate Jumba and I have nothing against him. Oh the fingernail thing, Jumba was pinching 625 really hard, and trust me that can break the skin.
To tortured artist: I know it's not professionally write, but I'm trying my best.
Chapter 5
The Outside World
625 looked outside and saw something he didn't expect. Jumba's ship was parked on top of a large lawn and there seemed to be a house nearby. Jumba's ship was parked on his backyard. 625 took a step outside and felt the soft grass tickle his toes. The wind blew gently causing the antennas on 625's head to sway along with the breeze. Jumba's yard was surrounded by a fence, next to the fences were short bushes that surrounded the sides of the fence.
625 became very curious at the house that was in front of him, as he began to walk to the house with no intention of stopping. As soon as he was in front of a large glass door, he put his face over it to see what creatures lived inside, as the suns glare caused 625 to see only his reflection. 625 only saw a dining room table. Nothing of his interest.
He stepped back and saw his reflection on the glass, taking a good look of himself for the first time. 625 moved his hand, as his reflection did the same. He giggled a little bit. He saw his extra body parts attached to him. Realizing he was still wearing his orange suit, he slipped off of it and threw it on the ground to see himself. His extra body parts were attached to his body. They were a part of him.
He stopped as he heard humming coming from the inside of the house. He went to the side of the house and climbed the walls to see who was inside, through an open window. He saw somebody. It looked alot like Jumba, but this one was female, and she looked lonely. She looked alot like Jumba but had red hair the was tied up over her head. 625 snorted and slipped inside through the window.
Should I scare this person?, 625 thought, Well, Jumba did tell me to be evil.
He hid his extra body parts under his skin and investigated the house, knocking down vases and picture frames, while walking down the hallway of the house. The carpets were wine red and the walls were light tan. He was walking up a squeaky staircase to see what was up there, knocking down a picture frame nailed to the wall.
The female Jumba look-alike heard the crash and walked down the halls to see who was the intruder armed with a broom to defend herself. She saw a small golden furred creature walk upstairs and into a bedroom. She too quietly walked upstairs and hid by the side of the bedroom, where the golden furred intruder was in.
625 didn't realize that somebody was nearby where he was. He was too busy looking at trinkets. He saw a pair of pink slippers and began to chew on the right one from hunger. It was time for the female jumba look-alike to attack. She entered in, as 625 looked behind his back. He was suddenly hit with a broom and knocked into the wall, moaning.
'' What are you doing!'', 625 shouted.
'' You can talk!'', the female Jumba look-alike spoke.
'' Well Duh! I am talking, aren't I?''
'' What are you doing in here?''
'' I dunno.''
'' Who are you?''
'' 625.''
'' 625? Oh, you must be one of my husbands evil experiments!''
'' Yeah.''
''... EVIL CREATURE! BE GONE!''
'' What did I ever do to you?''
'' One you broke into my house. Two you're were chewing on my right slipper.''
'' Well sorry. I'm supposed to be evil!''
'' Oh no... my husband has brainwashed you.''
'' Brainwashed! Who are you?''
'' I'm Jumba's wife.''
'' ... Never heard of you.''
'' Of course you've never heard of me. Jumba spends all of his time in his lab making experiments all day. Evil creatures I tell you... ugly too.''
625 snorted.
'' ... but for you... your one of the cutest ones I've ever seen.''
625 didn't know what to say, not realizing that his face flushed red.
'' What's wrong with you? First you go all quiet then your face goes red.''
Silence.
'' Do you have a malfunction? Hello? Do you have an instruction manual?''
'' Instruction manual?''
'' Now you respond. First of all, what are you doing here?''
'' I dunno. I just wanted to come in here.''
'' So you became curious...?''
'' Most likely.''
Then the female Jumba look-alike kneeled down,'' Let me see you.''
'' Your not going to hit me again are you?''
'' Of course not. I only want to see you.''
625 got up onto his feet and walked slowly and cautiously up to the female Jumba look-alike making sure that she wasn't up to any tricks. She rubbed her finger gently down 625's back, causing 625 to squeak when she touched his cuts.
'' Huh? What's wrong?''
'' I just have a few cuts that hurt.''
'' Let me see.''
She saw some purplish blood ooze out from behind his neck,'' What happened?''
'' Jumba held me too hard.''
'' No wonder why those evil creatures are mean. My husband is mean to you.''
625 saw the right pink slipper and began to chew on it.
'' Doesn't Jumba ever feed you in that ship of his?''
'' I don't recall eating anything'', 625 managed to say, through a mouthful of a slipper.
'' Hmm, where do you sleep?''
'' In a small cage, with newspapers lining the floor.''
'' Then what do you do in there... in the ship?''
'' Get trained, handle unstable blasters, get shot by Jumba, get locked in a cage.''
'' Oh you poor creature, hard to believe your not aggressive.''
'' Huh?''
'' The experiments that Jumba made are aggressive, mean, vicious looking scoundrels. I can understand now. Those things that Jumba puts you through.''
625 didn't know if he should be ashamed or not. He didn't understand that what Jumba was teaching was bad, but yet got rewarded for it. He looked at the floor.
'' Are you hungry?''
625 rubbed his empty belly, and lightly moaned.
'' Come, I'll make you something to eat.''
625 grinned, this creature wasn't so bad,'' Hey, what should I call you?''
'' I don't care. The other experiments give me inappropriate names.''
625 thought of a perfect nickname,'' How about Flora?''
'' Huh?''
'' You've got white flowers on your shirt.''
'' Fine.''
'' Where are we going?''
'' To the kitchen. What should I make you to eat?''
625 shrugged,'' I dunno.''
'' I'll make you something.''
They both walked downstairs and walked inside the kitchen. Flora opened the fridge and got a loaf of bread. Then she went to a cabinet and pulled out a jar of peanut butter and a jar of honey. She pulled out a butterknife from a drawer as 625 unscrewed the lids off the jars.
Flora spread some peanut butter on one slice of bread then spread honey on the other slice. She put the bread slices together and gave it to 625.
625 happily nibbled on the food,'' It's great! What's it called?''
'' It's a sandwich. You're eating a peanut butter and honey sandwich.''
'' It's delicious!''
'' I'm glad you like it.''
Then after 625 swallowed, he yawned and rubbed his right eye from drowsiness.
'' Are you tired?''
'' Yes, sleeping in a cramped cage... not comfortable.''
'' Let me make you a little place for you to sleep in.''
'' Thanks.''
Gantu and Era were watching the whole entire thing while standing inside the kitchen. This caused Gantu to become a little confused.
'' How come 625 isn't mean nor sarcastic?'', Gantu asked.
'' There has to be a reason for that. We have to wait and find out the source'', Era shrugged.
Then they saw Flora gather some pillows and a few blankets while trotting off to the living room, placing the items in an armchair,'' Oh 6... whatever your number is... come here.''
625 popped out from the kitchen and walked to the living room which was right next to each other.
'' My number is 625.''
'' I'm sorry. I have a place for you to sleep on.''
625 looked at the armchair, without saying a word, as Flora picked him up and placed him on the nest of soft blankets and pillows. 625 curled up into a ball to make himself comfortable as Flora drew the covers over his body.
625 looked very cozy laying in the makeshift bed, ready to take a nap. He wiggled around bit to get comfortable, as his eyes were halfway open, 625 slowly covered his eyes and the whole world faded into darkness from the slumbers of his nap.
