HI EVERYBODY! And may I apologize a thousand times for the amount of time it took me to update. But with homework and HOMECOMING and such it's been hard to squeeze stuff in. Unfortunately, I got no date to the dance, but maybe I will next year. Anyway, I'll be off to the homecoming game soon so I guess I should get this chapter submitted. (None of you guys care about my personal life anyway.) But anyway, I encourage you all to review and I hope you like this newest fluffy chapter.

Beastfire: Well, torture is fun when you know what's going to happen. And sometimes it's especially fun to torture characters! W00t!

Sorano101: Good to know my work is good. Thanks for reviewing!

Soneka the Hedgehog: Ah, all shall be revealed. I anticipate your next review!

Chapter 5

Skeleton King laughed his dark, evil laugh at the sight of SPRX-77's weakness. The red monkey stared at the ground, one third out of shame, one third out of fear, and one third out of sorrow.

"What I need to know, small primate, are access codes, system defaults, weak points, and the like," answered the Skeleton King.

"But," SPRX-77 looked up, "didn't you already get that information from that creep Sakko?"

"Please, Sparks, you underestimate me if you assume that I don't know that you've changed things since then. That event was long ago, and with the smart blue monkey on the team, I'm sure that systems codes have been switched and weak points have been strengthened."

"Well, say that we have," SPRX-77 said, his voice strengthening, "what makes you think I know any of it? Why go after me?"

"Because no one knows more about a craft than its pilot! Do you dare do disagree?"

SPRX-77 thought to himself. This was absolutely true. He knew every nook and cranny of the robot in battle form. He knew the strengths and weaknesses of it, and how to take care of it. The Skeleton King had been very smart to grab him. And he knew he had grabbed Nova knowing that he'd come after her. How he knew of his feelings SPRX-77 couldn't be sure, but he knew.

His thoughts were interrupted by Nova's yell once more. He looked over to the screen and saw her in the agony, pain. Those formless were not being gentle. When they finally relieved, she looked up and towards the camera. She seemed to know he was watching her from the other side. She spoke not a word, but her eyes told of the pain she was enduring, and her eyes cried out for help, for a savior, for a miracle.

"Stop it!" he said.

"I want an answer, now!" retaliated the Skeleton King

"Okay! Okay, I'll tell you everything you need to know." He sunk back to his knees. "Just don't hurt her again." His voice trailed off into a mumble "I'm not strong enough to endure it."

Gibson and Antauri left behind a one-handed headless Super Robot and zoomed off into space. The beautiful star light shone around them, but they had little time to notice. They poked and prodded the knobs and various buttons in their crafts, hoping to locate something, anything that didn't belong.

"Horribly strange the way they've been gone 24 hours and we only noticed now," commented Gibson.

"The problems with miscommunication are many. We must be careful with our language, otherwise it will swindle us. This is why we need to be very particularly with what we say, and most importantly to not spread gossip or other false words."

"Very true," commended Gibson, "though I believe it was your words that confused Otto in the first place."

Antauri smiled, "Well, it doesn't hurt to listen every once in a while either."

The duo chuckled quietly to themselves. Neither of them seemed too concerned about their missing companions, but they scanned and surveyed the air around them, being careful not to lose each other either.

Suddenly, a beep sounded in Gibson's pod, and a beep showed up on his screen. An unidentified craft was flying in a fly-free zone over Dreinatar 19. "Hey," Gibson said to Antauri, "I think I've found something…"

SPRX-77 was once again being led down a hall. His head hung low to the floor. He felt like a traitor, one who didn't deserve anything anymore. He had sold out his friends, telling every secret about the Super Robot he knew. The points where the metal was rusted and needed repair, where the loose bolts were, the elements which would quickly eat through the shield and make a direct hit on the exterior. He didn't deserve to live anymore.

His heart lifted for a second. He was taken to the room where Nova was being contained.She dangled from the wall by her wrists and ankles. She didn't look up at hearing the sound of the formless. An icy cool shudder went through SPRX-77's body as the thought came into his head that she was dead. But this thought was soon forgotten as he saw her chest slowly rising and falling. She was only asleep.

Hardly noticing what was happening, SPRX-77 soon found cuffs around his arms and legs. Unlike Nova, he didn't struggle to be free. He accepted that since Nova had been unable to break free, there was little hope that he would be able to.

Nova's eyes fluttered open and she looked over at him. "Sparks?" she asked weakly, "is that you?"

He nodded without returning her gaze.

"I don't blame you for not looking at me," she forced a laugh. SPRX-77 couldn't help thinking that even now her laugh was adorable. "I must like horrible just hanging here like this."

He finally looked up at her. "No," he smiled, "No, you look beautiful, just like you always do."

Nova blushed.

"It's not that I can't look at you, it's that you shouldn't be looking at me."

"Sparks? Why?"

He choked, "I…I sold the team out."

A flight of fury came upon Nova, "You WHAT? SPARKS? WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? You gave away our secrets? WHY? WHAT COULD POSSIBLY HAVE DRIVEN YOU TO DO THIS!"

SPRX-77 looked up with the most amazing sincerity and caring that he had ever felt. "Because," he paused, "because he threatened to kill you."

Nova's bright pink eyes widened with surprise, and the anger vanished from them.

"And I couldn't let that happen." He finished.

Nova continued to stare.

"...because I love you."

She didn't blink. She didn't waver. She didn't move a muscle. She just stared, as if she was staring directly into his soul, trying to tell if he was really serious or just pretending.

She finally spoke, her strength seeming to be renewed, and she spoke with a firm voice. A smile lit her face. "So, Sparks, you think we can break out of here?"

But her lightened hopes were soon shattered, and her smile wasted as the Skeleton King appeared on a television against the wall. "Sorry to crash the party, but I'm afraid that's just not going to happen."

He nodded towards one of his minions, who went into another room and returned with a giant ray gun. It didn't look to comforting. Skeleton King's voice boomed once more through the room, "You two are now of no use to me anymore. And as the rest of your team will soon be destroyed, I might as well save myself the trouble and get rid of the two of you now." After readying the laser, the formless looked up to the Skeleton King for verification. "Take out the yellow one first."

The formless nodded. He pressed a button on his machine and a charge began to build up.

The golden yellow monkey looked over at the ruby one, "well, Sparks, I guess this is it. I suppose I should just let you know that-"

But SPRX-77 cut her off, "Nova, hold that thought."

A blast was sent flying forth from the ray, straight towards Nova. She closed her eyes as tight as she could as she braced herself for the attack. But before she was hit with anything, she heard a loud crash.

She opened her eyes to find the television crashed under the weight of the ray gun. "What, what'd I miss?"

"Let's just say this, I think if Skeleton King ever captures us again, he'll think to restrain our tails, so we can't reach over and knock over his ray guns."

Nova smiled. He had done it again.

"Come on." SPRX-77 used his tail to pry off his bonds and fell the two long drop to the floor. He then ran over to Nova and broke hers. She fell gently into his arms, and he set her down on the ground.

The formless came running at them, but with a sweep of one golden fist, he was left as a pool of slime.

"Come on, Nova. The Skeleton King can't see us now, but no doubt there'll be more formless her in a second."

He turned to turn and run off, but Nova grabbed his arm. "Oh no you don't. You never let me finish what I was trying to say back there."

"Oh?" he turned to face her, "What's that?"

"Here. I'll show you." She reached her hand behind his head, pulled him closer, and kissed him. She felt his warm arm around her back. And then, he pulled back. She looked deeply into his eyes. His smile was warm as was hers.

He had pulled away because he noticed the formless that were quickly coming around the corner towards them. "You thinking what I'm thinking?"

Nova nodded.

"SONIC TWIN ATTACK!" they said in unison.

A/N: Okay, so that was a dumb place to stop but I couldn't think of any other way to do so.

Anyway FLUFFINESS TO THE EXTREME, eh?

Review if you liked it (or if you didn't, either way, I'm easy)! Thanks all!
