Chapter 8: A Mutated Yang
"Ugh!" Darryl moaned as he opened his eyes and saw Yang and 625. "Yang? 625? What are you doing here?"
"We came here to help." 625 replied as he offered a hand to the miniature beast. He smiled as he took his hand and pulled himself up. "You look a mess."
"Yeah. I'm a little bloody, but I'll be fine."
Yang sniffed around and he walked up to behind the broken television. This puzzled Darryl and 625 as they watched him.
"Yang, what is it?" Darryl asked as he followed him. Yang suddenly squealed with horror as he began to panic. Darryl looked at him for a minute before he slowly lifted the tv to see…
"Kyoto!" He exclaimed. He saw her unconcious and bloody as well. He picked up her body and laid her down in his lap, trying to revive her as he spoke.
"I was wondering why she wasn't in the fight with the rest of the experiments." He said as he patted the second female experiment's face. 625 walked up to him and sat down.
"What was that experiment's name and number?" He asked.
"His name was Kavino and his number is 715."
"715? Whatever happened to the others between Ryanello and Kavino?"
"Who knows?"
"Dr. Hamsterviel. That's who."
Darryl suddenly showed a look of shock as he heard this reply.
"Exactly!" He exclaimed. "Maybe Jumba knows, too. Yang, do you think you can call Jumba and ask him what happened to the experiments that were between Ryanello and Kavino?"
"Ih." Yang replied as he headed for the kitchen and picked up the phone before dialing Jumba's number. After 3 rings, the other line picked up.
"Hello?" Jumba greeted.
"Aloha, Jumba." Yang greeted back.
"502? What brings you to call your creator?"
"Darryl wanna know what happened to other cousins that were made between 704 and 715."
"715! Oh, no! Hamsterviel unleashed forbidden experiment! You say little beast wants to know what happened to experiments 705 to 714?"
"Ih."
"They were actually a group of our baddest experiments ever… and by bad, I mean unfunctional. They were made functionless for some reason and they were disposed of. Where is what I don't know and neither does Hamsterviel. If you do happen to find experiments in the range of numbers 705 to 714, keep them and make sure they don't get into trouble, since they're all functionless… unless they can make up functions of their own. Understand?"
"Meega understand."
"Good. Tell the little beast that please."
"Meega will. Bye-bye."
"Hold on!"
"Gaba?"
"What happpened to 626 and the others?"
"They were captured by…"
"Gantu! I know who it is."
"But, Jumba, there was small change."
"What?"
"Gantu had 715 to assist him. All of them were captured… except 701."
"Kyoto?"
"Ih."
"Amazing. It looks like there's a desperate situation happening at this moment. With 715 unleashed into Hawaii, all of my previous experiments will fear of leaving true place. It's all down to you, 502."
"Meega?"
"Yes. You can mutate into experiment 716."
"Gaba?"
"Yes. I know it's impossible for you to mutate from one experiment number to another, but actually anything's possible for my experiments."
"So, when meega get extremely angry, meega will transform into 716, right?"
"Exactly."
"How big will meega be?"
"That's for me to know and you to find out. Now, go. Help Darryl and 701 rescue your cousins."
"Okay. Bye-bye."
"Good luck."
After that, Yang hung up the phone and he walked back over to Darryl, 625, and Kyoto. Kyoto was just waking up after 5 minutes of unconsicousness.
"Darryl?" She asked weakly. This made the three boys sigh with relief.
"Thank goodness, you're okay." Darryl pleaded happily. "Were you trying to plan a sneak attack?"
"Yeah. I guess I waited too long. The others got captured, right?"
'Yeah. 625 and Yang are here."
"Really?" She turned and saw the two experiments and smiled as she slowly got up from Darryl's lap. "Why are you two here?"
"We're here to help ya get Kavino and the experiments back." 625 replied, taking a bite out of a sandwich he pulled out of nowhere.
"Great."
"Yang, did you find out what happened to the experiments that were made between Ryanello and Kavino?" Darryl asked.
"Ih." Yang replied. "Jumba says that they were functionless somehow. He also said that if we happen to find at least one of them, we can keep it."
"Functionless?"
"Yeah."
"In other words, they're useless experiments created for absolutely no bullshit."
"Ih."
"Well, damn. What a total waste of valuable time."
"He also said that meega can mutate."
"Really?" Kyoto asked. "Into what?"
"Experiment 716."
"What?" 625 choked between gulps of his sandwich.
"Ih. He knows that all of the other cousins are afraid to come out, even for a breath of fresh air, because Kavino is loose. Unless meega don't mutate into 716, all of the cousins will be doomed."
"For now, we're gonna see if we can find any experiments that were made between Ryanello and Kavino with this." Kyoto commanded as she pulled out a high-tech experiment detector watch and strapped it on her right wrist. The boys were astonished by this small device.
"What kind of watch is that?" 625 asked in a dazed tone.
"It's something I happened to invent myself way before Kavino arrived. While you all were busy talking, I happened to sneak up into Jumba's room and use his tools to create this magnificiant watch. I'd like to call this 'The Experiment Detection Watch'. It can detect any experiment, even forbidden ones. All I have to do is classify the number of the experiment we're looking for and bam! It'll detects it in a snap."
"Niiiiiiiice!" The three boys geered in a dazed voice.
Meanwhile, at Gantu's ship…
Gantu was sitting back and relaxing while Kavino kept a close watch on the captured experiments that were placed in separate teleportation pods. He was sitting in a lounge chair watching them. Stitch was growling, Angel tried to calm him down, Rexcko played his Game Boy Advance, Ryanello was doing a few tricks with his yo-yo, Wheels just rolled around in circles, and King Jr. lifted weights with his own weight set. Kavino was speechless as he watched them do their own thing. Gantu chuckled.
"These experiments know how to past the time, I must say." He said matter-of-factly. "Stitch, however, better calm down or he's gonna be the oddball of the litter to get hurt."
"Naga! Meega takaba qweesta!" Stitch exclaimed in response as he tried to bang the glass again. This time, it shocked him when he hit it one time and he was knocked out again. Angel sighed as she gave up calming him down and sat down against the glass. Kavino chuckled at this presentation.
"Is Stitch always like that?" He asked Gantu.
"Most of the time, yeah. Other times, he feels as though there's nothing to do and he just gives up and surrenders." He replied.
"Harsh."
After that statement, Hamsterviel appeared on the main screen. Gantu noticed and simply turned his chair around so he could see him.
"Yes, Dr. Hamsterviel?" He asked.
"Gantu, have you got my… oh!" Hamsterviel replied as he looked behind the whale-like alien's back and saw the experiments. "It's about time you did something right. I am guessing now that experiment 715 was the perfect assistant for you."
"Indeed, he was, sir."
"Excelle… wait a minute. There's one missing."
"Huh?" Gantu turned around and saw that there was one missing: Kyoto.
"You didn't capture experiment 701?"
"I… guess not."
"What happened to her!"
"She must've been camaflauged somewhere and I didn't see her." Kavino replied innocently. "I'm sorry, Dr. Hamsterviel."
"Thank you for your kindest words, 715. Clearly, that is what I made you for beside the super strength and special abilities and such. As for Gantu, his apologizing is no use to me."
"Grrr!" Gantu growled.
"As a reward, 715, you will go back out and locate 701 and bring her back here. Gantu, you will stay here and supervise these experiments."
"But, sir…"
"No buts, Gantu! You've been doing the complaining for many days and nights now! I have no time for the silly excuses! What did you name 715?"
"…………Kavino, sir."
"Nice name. It matches his looks. Anyway, go, Kavino! Bring my beloved 701 back!"
"Right away, sir." Kavino replied like a solider before he headed for the elevator exit and left to search for Kyoto. Gantu slumped in his chair in anger as he looked at the experiments. Rexcko overheard the whole conversation as he paused his game for a minute.
"You be a good alien and stay here with the other experiments until Kavino gets back. Understand?" Hamsterviel commanded.
"Yes, sir." Gantu replied boredly before Hamsterviel nodded and clicked off. Rexcko busted out laughing.
"For someone who's been formally working for the Galatic Alliance, you sure are being treated more like a baby! AHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed. Gantu didn't flinch nor did he say another word as he allowed the green lizard-like experiment to continue laughing, feeling that he deserves it.
Meanwhile, in the town streets…
Kyoto, Darryl, 625, and Yang were all walking together down the street towards Gantu's ship. They were about a mile away from the beach when Kyoto's watch started beeping.
"Oh, geez!" She blurted out with shock. "This thing is useful, but it sure does scare the hell outta you. You just told the watch to detect experiment 708, right?"
"Yeah." Darryl replied as he looked at the watch. "Looks like he's in section 45, field 19."
"In other words, he's in the coffee shop. Let's go."
Minutes later…
The four of them arrived at Kiki's Coffee shop in search of experiment 708. Luckily, the coffee shop was closed and deserted so it was easy to find him. Kyoto was keeping her focus on her watch as she continued walking towards the precise location of the experiment. As she got closer, the beeping got faster. It was at medium speed when she stopped at the entrance of the actual shop.
"He's in here somewhere." She said to the boys, who followed behind. She proceeded foreward and the beeping got a little faster. She turned to the right and the beeping got to its maximum speed. She looked up and looked straight at a wall. This made her confused and frustrated. "What the hell…? Don't tell me he's inside this wall."
Darryl moved beside Kyoto and laid an ear beside the wall and tapped it twice. The same tapping played back, which made his eyes widen.
"He's in the wall, Kyoto." He said in depressed tone. "What I'm wonderin' is how the hell he got in there."
"That don't matter!" 625 yelled from afar as he looked at Yang. "Yang, fire away! Kyoto, Darryl, stand back!"
The two stood back towards the right side as Yang fired a lava ball from his back and it made the wall explode, leaving a huge hole in the wall. Inside the hole, experiment 708 was sleeping peacefully. He was a saber-toothed tiger-wolf-rabbit mix with periwinkle colored fur with lime green stripes on his back and midnight blue eyes hidden in his closed eyes. He was about the size of a red panda. He even had the tail of a red panda. Kyoto awed at the adorable, but functionless experiment.
"He's so cute." Kyoto cooed as she slowly walked up to him and shook him a little. After 5 shakes, 708 woke up by slowly opening his big hamster-like midnight blue colored eyes and looked up at Kyoto, who smiled down upon him with love in her heart.
"He looks too cute to have a function anyway." She said to herself as she picked him up and craddled him in her arms. "Since Lilo's not here, I get to name you. I'll call you… Ice."
"Ice?" 625 asked confusingly. "Is that the best name you can come up with?"
"Like I have any other names to think of? Shut the hell up, please!"
"My bad."
"I think Ice is perfect for him." Darryl agreed as he randomly pulled out a wagon from nowhere. Kyoto gently placed Ice inside and he sat in the cutest position they ever did see.
"Awwwwwwww!" They all cooed in unison.
"I can see why some of these are functionless." Darryl predicted as he took the handle of the wagon and headed out with the others until…
"Well, well, well." Kavino started, standing in Darryl's way. "Look who I missed earlier. You lookin' quite sexy there… Kyoto!"
"At least I have less dependence on a big dummy!" Kyoto shouted back in anger. "I'm not going anywhere with you, bitch!"
"Oooh! I like them feisty! I don't really care what you say! I just want you come along with me like a good girl and you and your bastards won't get hurt."
"NAGA!" Yang splurted out. "MEEGA CHATOOKA QWEESTA PATOOKIE!"
"Is that so, Yang? You really think you can kick my ass?"
"Ih!"
"Well, I'd love to fight, but as you didn't notice, I have an experiment to capture. C'mon, Kyoto."
"Did you hear what I said!" Kyoto exclaimed, standing her ground. "I'm not going anywhere with a crazy bastard like you!"
"Oh, you are… and you will. Even if I have to shoot your sexy ass." Those were Kavino's final words before he formed a plasma ball in his hands and fired it at her before she amazingly flipped out of the way and landed right behind him. He sensed her and he grabbed her by the wrist hard, nearly breaking it. She grunted in clentched teeth as she resisted the pain and escaped without any problems and Kavino turned around. 625 was wide eyed as he saw this brawl.
"That's experiment 715, a.k.a. Kavino?" He asked Darryl, who nodded in response. "Damn. He looks like a 715."
Back in the fight, Kavino tried grabbing the fast female by her ears, but she flipped out of the way again, barely having Kavino's hand touch them. He got aggrivated as decided to just try to punch her. She blocked it easily and she kicked him in the stomach hard, nearly knocking the wind out of him. Yang decided to help by simply shooting his lava balls to Kavino's back. He felt this and he immediately turned around and ran up to the lava experiment. He then grabbed him by his neck and choked him to death for about 5 minutes before he slammed him face first into the ground, making a crater in the ground. Kyoto stood her ground as she saw this before she ran up and tried a sneak jump and kick attack on the back of his head. Again, Kavino felt her coming nearer before he unsupectedly turned around really fast and slammed her under her chin, which knocked her out the moment she landed hard on the ground. Darryl was speechless, 625 fainted, and Ice grew scared as he hid a little lower in the wagon. Kavino chuckled with satisfaction as he walked up to Kyoto's unconscious body and picked it up before he jumped off at the speed of light, leaving Darryl, 625, Yang, and Ice in silence.
"Tell me that didn't just happen." 625 muttered under his breath. Yang slowly got up and he growled in extreme anger for what Kavino did to him. He started growling even louder as the piece of land that was under his feet started to spout lava without hurting him. The other three looked right at him and grew nervous. Yang was mutating!
"Is he doing what I think he doing or am I just seeing things?" Darryl asked himself as 625 and Ice shrugged his shoulders in response.
Meanwhile, at Gantu's ship…
It was all silent again when Rexcko stopped laughing and resumed his game. Wheels was still going in circles and this was making Gantu dizzy… until he heard the elevator door open. He turned around in his chair and found Kavino at the entrance with the unconscious Kyoto in his arms. This made all of the experiments gasp in horror.
"KYOTO!" Koshi screamed as he saw his beloved girlfriend injured and knocked out.
"Show off." Gantu muttered under his breath as Kavino opened the last remaining empty teleportation pod and placed her body in it before he closed it again. After that, he looked at Gantu with a confused look on his face.
"What? You didn't think I could actually complete a mission?" He asked as he walked to his spot next to Gantu.
"I've could've done better." The whale-like experiment complained. This only made Kavino laugh.
"Like I would care nonetheless."
At this point, Gantu was about punch this experiment silly until…
BOOM!
An explosion stopped the altercation and it revealed a huge hole in the door. The hole showed 625, Darryl with Ice still in the wagon, and Yang was looking very monsterous. He was almost at Gantu's exact height, except he was 4 inches shorter. He was extremely muscular with gleaming red eyes and steam was coming from his backspikes at every exhale he took. His tail was also steaming, just by itself though. This made Gantu nervous and Kavino stand his ground. All of the other experiments stopped what they were doing and looked speechlessly at the mutated Yang.
"Who the hell is that?" Gantu asked with shock. Kavino grew furious as he recognized who it was.
"Yang." Kavino replied in a soft voice as he moved a little further. When he took his 7th step, Yang growled as he inhaled first, then released a plasma fire beam towards him, knocking him through three teleportation pod glasses, freeing Rexcko, Koshi, and Kyoto. As soon as Koshi got out, he ran over to his unconscious girlfriend and embraced her sadly while Rexcko walked up to him and silently told him to walk with him back to where Yang was standing alongside Darryl and Ice. Stitch, Angel, King Jr., Stitch Jr., Ryanello, and Wheels were remaining as Kavino slowly, but painfully stood up. He had bloody scars all over his body from the sharp glass. Yang smiled with satisfaction as he stomped foreward towards Gantu, but when he got up to him, he just stood there. Gantu looked straight at his face, which was very evil looking. When Yang smiled devilishly, he knocked him towards a computer system faster than the speed of light, roaring in the process. Kavino was almost up and running as Yang got up to the remaining trapped experiments. When he was about to break the glasses to free them, Kavino made an unsuspecting attack by firing a water crystal beam at him… but it didn't do any harm, since lava is hotter than water. Kavino noticed and slammed his fist against the back wall in anger.
"Goddamn it!" He swore to himself. "I forgot he's powered by lava and fire. I'll just have to try somethin' else."
And so he did. He powered up a green plasma ball he likes to call the "Ultima" ball. When it was fully powered up, Yang sensed it and fired a lava smudge from his volcano-like spikes on his back and it burned Kavino's hands, making his Ultima ball disappear.
"AHHHHHHH, SHIT!" He screamed. Yang chuckled in his growl before he finally slammed the remaining 6 glasses into pieces and Ryanello, Stitch, Angel, King Jr., Wheels, and Stitch Jr. were free as they ran back to Darryl and the other four experiments. It was just Kavino and Yang left and Kavino was able to shake the burning pain away from Yang's lava smudge.
"There's no way of beatin' this guy!" He said to himself. "There's gotta be a way."
He tried again. He pulled out his laserbladed sword and prepared himself. Yang looked at him with a blank stare.
"HA! You don't have one of the… oh, my God."
Yang pulled out a laserpowered scythe-lance mix in one hand and a quadruple laserbladed sword in the other, making an "X". This made Kavino nervous, but he soon showed him the other end of his double-bladed laserbladed sword. They were even as they began fighting weapon-to-weapon. As they experiments and Darryl were watching them, Stitch, Rexcko, Angel, Stitch Jr., Wheels, Ryanello, and King Jr. were eyeing Ice in question.
"What experiment is this?" Ryanello asked.
"This is experiment 708, otherwise known as Ice." Kyoto replied when she fully recovered.
"What does he do?" Rexcko asked.
"Nothing, really. He's functionless."
"Is that why Jumba didn't mention him or the others that were made between Kavino and me?" Ryanello asked.
"Exactly. They're cute, but they're functionless. That's what makes them obsolete at this moment."
"How do you exactly know all of non-existing cousins are cute and fluffy like meega?" Stitch asked, embracing Angel. Kyoto shrugged her shoulders.
"Don't know. Maybe it's just a wild guess."
At that response, Ice squealed so high, it nearly pierced their eardrums. They all looked at him with a surprising stare.
"Maybe these are baby experiments. That's why they're functionless." 625 guessed in a dazed voice.
Back in the ship…
Kavino was outnumbered as he was bleeding immensely on his abdomen and face when he was slammed to the wall for the 5th time by Yang's outrageous weapons. He laid there motionless for 10 minutes before Yang walked up to him and placed a pair of two fingers on his neck to check his pulse. There was no pulse at all. He was dead. Yang roared in victory as he turned his weapons off and put them away. After his 10 second roar, he stomped back to his cousins before he slowly shrunk down back to his normal form and collasped to the ground with exhaustion. Ice decided to help him by pulling him into the wagon with him and allowed him to rest. Kyoto smiled at Ice's kindness.
"He deserves it. C'mon, everybody. Let's head back." She announced as she lead them back to Lilo's house. On their way back,all of the other experiments cheered for them for defeating Kavino. Yin saw Yang sleeping in the red wagon with Ice watching him. He slithered over towards him and carefully picked up his completely opposite cousin and patted Ice on his head for a thanks before he slithered off. When they all arrived back to Lilo's house, 625 turned the other direction without saying a word, which made Stitch come after him with worry.
"Why is cousin 625 leaving?" He asked.
"I don't really belong with you guys, remember?" 625 replied. "I'd rather be Gantu's annoying sidekick than stay here. I was glad to help you guys out, though." After that reply, 625 left back to Gantu's ship. When he was completely gone, Stitch sighed with a smile.
"Meega like you better like that anyway." He said softly before heading back in the house with the others.
Later…
Ice was quietly working on Kyoto's Experiment Detection watch in Jumba's room. He had it nearly broken apart with just the insides showing. The gears, microchips, and everything. While he was working, Stitch Jr. entered and he was astonished by what Ice was doing, even though he was a baby.
"Huh?" He asked as he walked into the room and closed the door behind him. He walked up to Ice, who had his back turned as he was working on Kyoto's watch. When he came up beside the baby experiment, he was keeping his eyes on the watch until Ice noticed.
"Eega machooka ficha?" He asked in his baby-pitched voice.
"Meega was wondering what new cousin is doing." Stitch Jr. replied.
"Oh! Maga teecha ozaka tenchu."
"Huh?"
"Maga teecha ozaka tenchu. Usaka raneechu!" Those were Ice's final words before he walked off to search for a small screwdriver. Stitch was still confused as to what Ice said. He didn't understand a single word he just said and it made him puzzled for quite a while. He was getting sleepy anyway, so he decided to leave him alone and continue his work on Kyoto's watch. When he got in bed, Ice's language was still in question as he fell asleep with an emotionless look on his face.
To be continued…
