Antauri walked out of the infirmary to the others in the conference area of the Super Robot to tell his brothers and sister of the news. When he walks into the room; the others just look at him.

"Are you ok?" asked Chiro

"I'm fine, but I must inform you that I have invited her to stay." said Antauri plainly

"You did!" exclaimed Otto looking excited

"Yes" Antauri simply replied

They simply looked at him until Otto exclaimed, "Awesome! We have a niece!

"She accepted your offer?" asked Gibson questionably

"She took several moments to decide, but she accepted" said Antauri

"Well, I guess I'll hafta set up a room for her," said Nova looking at Antauri

"Thank you Nova." Antauri said in thankfulness, "I need to meditate; I'll be back later.

"Of course, go do what ya need to do" said Sprx.

Antauri left to his room and Otto and Nova went to set up an extra room; the other members of the monkey team just sat in the living room.

"Well I guess things are gonna change around here…" Sprx plainly said with a small smart aleck tone.

"A 16 year old girl…no doubt" Gibson said with a straight face thinking the things they would go through with a teenager.

"What's the big deal….I'm 13…I don't cause that much trouble…" Chiro pointed out thinking that it really wasn't a big issue.

"True kid, but you gotta realize you're a boy among almost a whole team of the same gender….and girls are…well…there more emotional then boys…"

They would have continued but Gibson interrupted, "Shhhh…do you hear that?"

"I don't hear anything…." Chiro said

Sprx thought he'd take the opportunity to insult him, "Yeah…me neither brain boy….maybe your brain finally cracked and your hearing voices…"

"I highly doubt that…"Gibson started to say but then thought he heard it again. It sounded like someone talking….and it was coming through the lab doors.

Gibson started to walk towards the lab with Chiro and Sprx behind him; the opened the doors. They all saw Adeline up and about playing with a small ball type toy; she was having a great time by the sound of it. She was singing a tune and knocking around the ball with her knees, feet, and head. They all stood there watching Adeline play and sing; she hadn't noticed them

"I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut…..My weakness is that I care too much…..My scars remind me that the past is real….I tear my heart open just to feel…" she sang and then stopped and started sounding out a beat…

They just stood there until Sprx couldn't stand it anymore "What are you doing? he said…he just had to know what she was doing

She jumped and cried out in surprise; she didn't drop the hacky sack but caught it on her head; she turned, "Oh….you scared me…"

Sprx didn't look it but he said, "Sorry"

"What are you playing?" Chiro was also anxious to find out.

"Oh..." she looked up and then towards Chiro and giggled, "It's a hacky sack…the point is to not let it hit the ground and don't use your hands..."

"That sounds cool…can I try?" he said excitedly

"Sure" she smiled and with a quick movement she knocked it off her head and kicked it to him. It hit his chest and he kicked it up, but it went long and hit the floor. She giggled, "It takes a while to get used to"

He picked it up and handed it to her but Gibson interjected, "Why are you not resting?" he said a little sternly

Adeline was a little amused…she knew he was trying to be a good new family member "Hey don't get all defensive," she said raising both of her hands up, "I'm just not tired….and to be honest I'm hyper…and hungry…" she smiled and laughed at their faces…Chiro laughed with her.

Gibson was the first to speak and he cleared his throat, "Yes well…I suppose you can come out of the lab; we can show you around.

"Cool" she said walking out with the three.

As soon as they got out of the lab, Nova and Otto came up. Otto was excited to talk to his niece, "Hi!"

Adeline laughed a little; he sounded like an overactive hyper kid, "Hi" and she smiled

Nova laughed too but she interjected, "What are you guys doing?"

"We were going to show Adeline around the robot..." Chiro quickly said.

Nova was a little confused and wanted to express the reason, "why don't Chiro and I show Adeline around the Robot and you guys try to find a way off the planet…"

"Excellent Idea…" Gibson agreed…

"Ok then…Adeline…come with us…we'll show you around and then I'll show you your room…" Nova told her as they walked out of the main living room.

Nova and Chiro showed the whole robot and room to Adeline; they were going to leave her to do whatever she wanted to do with her room, but she stopped them

"Wait….am I going to be able to go back to my house….I need to get some stuff." she said thinking not only that she would get some things but she would meet her boyfriend before she left, so she could give him a transporter and a universal telephone that she took from the equipment room when they were in there. She knew she wanted to stay with her family and get to know them, but she didn't want to leave her boyfriend behind.

"Oh…um…I dunno…I'd have to ask the whole team" Nova answered

"Oh…ok that's cool" she gave a smile "I'll just wait here until you get back" she said lying down on her bed.

Nova and Chiro didn't say anything as they walked out to ask the rest of the boys and especially Antauri what their decision was, but Nova was pretty sure they were going back…after all she only had one pair of clothes that were soaked in blood and was pretty sure she didn't want to borrow Chiro's clothes…She giggled to herself at the thought; they reached the living room to find the rest of the whole team trying to find a power source. She thought she'd come right out and say it, "Guys….Adeline wants to go get some stuff from her house.."

"What! Is she insane! She was nearly killed by two thugs in a truck!" Gibson exclaimed

"I know but she needs clothes and I'm sure she wants to pick up some other stuff." Nova said informatively

"I am not so sure…" Antauri said pondering

"Oh come on….she only has one pair of clothes and it's caked in dried blood….she really needs some clothes…"

"Alright…we will leave in a short while…since its nighttime it should be safe." Antauri replied

"I'll go tell her to get ready" Chiro said quickly leaving

"Well he left in a hurry…" Nova said but continued, "So how are we doing on that power problem?"

"We think we've found another way to power the ship…we just need to recalibrate a few wires and bypass the power cables and we should be fine…" Otto said as he was fiddling with wires in a panel across the room.

"Great! So we'll leave after we get back?" Nova asked knowing she was asking 20 questions but she was anxious to show Adeline around Shugazoom City

"Yes, that sound logical" Gibson said checking some of the results from an experiment that he was doing before they left Shugazoom.

A voice sounded from the doorway, "What seems logical, now?" it was Adeline; she walked in on Gibson's statement.

"Were gonna jump off this planet as soon as we get your stuff…." Sprx Adeline said

There was a moment of silence until Nova broke it, "Okay….let's get going…I wanna go home as soon as I can." The monkey team agreed with her on this one, so they left being extremely cautious about Adeline walking out in the open; Adeline was finding this pretty funny and thought she'd say something as they got a block away from her house

"Guys…chill it's 1 in the morning…nobody's awake…"

"We just want to be careful…we don't need any surprises…" Antauri said

"Alright but I'm telling you around here the latest people stay up is 11…" she said as they walked up to her door and entered the house.

The monkey team entered to find a semi-furnished home with wood floors; it was a two story. In the living room there was a couch, coffee table, TV, some wall hangings for decoration and a rug that made the room more appealing. On the other side of the living room was a door that leads to a normal kitchen with nothing out of the ordinary; just a stove, fridge, countertop, dishwasher, cabinets, and table. The rest of the house they hadn't seen yet but Adeline spoke out

"You guys can do whatever you want" she started to go towards the stairs "There's food in the fridge and the TV works so have some fun" she gave them a smile and a giggle and went up the stairs to her room. Antauri and Gibson stood in their place but Nova headed for the TV while Sprx and Otto headed to raid her fridge.
