Chapter 6

SPRX-77 and Nova's path was cleared of the formless. "C'mon," he said, grasping her hand firmly in his own, "let's get out of here."

Nova smiled at the prospect of her hand being held. They both turned on their rocket packs and flew down the hall. There was little doubt that the Skeleton King didn't know where they were, but they would do what they could to stay out of sight.

Motioning down a tunnel SPRX-77 called, "Down here!" They flew together down the tunnel. The tunnel opened up into a large open room. An eerie green light shown through the ceiling, through which stars could be seen.

"Uhh, Sparks, I think we should go back. This place gives me the creeps!"

"Hey! The ceiling looks translucent up there! I bet we could smash through it!"

Nova shuddered, "I just get a bad feeling about it."

SPRX-77 squeezed the hand of his magenta-eyed companion. "I bet you can smash through it." He leaned over and gave Nova a peck on the cheek, causing her cheeks to match the color of her eyes.

"Alright," she said, her face returning to its normal yellow color, "Let's get outa here." They flew up to the top of the room. Nova transformed her hands into fists. "I've got one shot at this." She said, "If I don't smash through it in one hit, then the Skeleton King will definitely hear us and his minions will be all over us."

Nova pulledback her arm and then whammed it towards the roof with all of the force she contained. Whatever was making the room green, it leaked out through Nova's hole and was soon gushing into the room. Nova jumped out of the way and past through the whole as soon as she could, but SPRX-77 wasn't so lucky.

The blast of green hit him like a lead balloon, sending him into a coughing fit, and stinging his eyes

Nova had noticed SPRX-77's absence and spun around to get him.

He waved her on. "No! No, go! Get out of here!"

Whether she wanted to or not she quickly lost the opportunity to save her red friend. The hole she had made filled itself in. Fortunately, SPRX-77 was able to stop coughing and came up to where he could see Nova.

"It's alright, I'm okay," he said. "Can you break it again?"

Nova stared at him, unable to understand a word he was saying. Suddenly her eyes almost popped out of her head and she pointed toward the ground.

Formless were quickly picking up rocks and throwing them up at him. He spun around, but as he did a large rock hit his jetpack. It sputtered then discontinued working. He plummeted down the five hundred foot drop to the ground

"Sparks!" called Nova, unable to help as the formless engulfed the immobile red body.

Chiro sat in one end of the main room, pressing several buttons on his cell phone as Otto was examining the underside circuitry of the Super Robot. "Hello. Is Thingy there? Thingy? He's small and blue and…um cute? Hello! Is anybody even there? Hello! I can't understand a word you're saying! Are you even saying anything? Hello?...Aw forget it." He ended the call. "Remind me not to call there again."

"I thought maybe you'd have thought about that before you called," Otto said.

"Well I think I've called everybody. The Sun Riders, Tolomac 3, Sotorix 7, the Planet of the Ape Bots, and even a couple of random numbers that I just typed in! And nobody's seen them, or anything suspicious at all for that matter."

"Pity. I hope Gibson and Antauri are having some luck." He returned to his work. "One more wire and…I got it!" Otto wheeled himself out from underneath the panel and went over the circuit box, flipping a single switch. Instantly the buttons and levers on the control panel once again started to blink and whirr.

The sphereical figure of Shuggazoom once again filled the screen. Otto breathed a sigh of relief as he wiped his brow.

"Hey it looks good," said Chiro moving from the other end of the room, admiring the now-working control panel.

"Yeah, not bad. Thanks for your help by the way. Even if you did electrocute yourself. I figured you'd know not to cut wire with a current running through it without metal scissors and without rubber gloves."

"Yeah, maybe you can warn me next time."

Otto laughed in his companion's expense and looked toward the screen. "Woah," he said, seeing the fist rocket and brain scrambler, "they're going fast! I wonder why they aren't worried about crashing."

"I don't know, I'll try contacting them." Chiro hit the button on his vest, "Antauri, Gibson? Come in!"

All he heard was the fuzz of the radio.

"Antauri? Gibson? Hello? Are you there?"

More fuzz.

He hit the button again. "Something's happened to them. I can feel it. We have to go help!"

"But we can't fly without a fist rocket, remember what happened last time?"

"I'll make a counterbalance."

"Cool. How fast?"

"I'd say about fifteen minutes, and another fifteen to install," pondered Otto.

"Right then, and be ready to take off for a rescue in T-minus 30 minutes."

"Cool!" said Otto, and grabbed a pen as he began to design.

Antauri sighed as he steered away from their former destination. "I would appreciate it Gibson if we could actually find a shuttle that isn't a tour bus, a 5-planet cruise, or a family on vacation," he said slightly annoyed, though he wasn't really showing it.

"Well technically they were violators of the law, and I told them not to be flying in no-fly zones. Honestly tourists should know better," excused Gibson.

They continued to fly through space in silence, but before they knew what was happening, a strange green mist surrounded the Brain Scrambler and Fist Rocket.

"What's this?" asked Gibson, "a strange paranormal existence in the atmosphere. It looks…strange. I can't identify the atomic makeup either. Extraordinary! Think about it! An unidentified element! I could make it onto the periodic table! How does Gibsontonium sound?"

"Um, Gibson."

"Hm, perhaps a more original name. But Shuggazoomium sounds much too lengthy. Besides it would be constantly misspelled."

"Gibson."

"I could name it after an idol, but Einsteinium already exists."

"Gibson!"

"Huh?" said Gibson, finally waking from his self-induced trance.

"How quickly can you analyze this new substance?"

"Fairly quickly, why?"

"Because I think it's seeping through the ship."

"By Shuggazoom you're right!" Gibson pushed a few buttons in his cruiser. "A slightly reactive gas, residing with 7 valance electrons. Creates a release of gas when reacting with Hydrogen to form… Antauri! We have to bail! This reaction will form a poisonous sleeping gas! It can also be highly corrosive with metal."

"Then let's get out of here!"

The two put their re-breathers, often used for undersea missions and warming, then pressed a button which opened an outer escape hatch and the two both flew out, allowing their ships to continue cruising through space.

"I hope the tracking beacon is working, otherwise I don't think we'll be getting those back soon," Gibson remarked.

"Indeed, but we do need to find our way out of this mist."

Suddenly, Gibson's re-breather snapped in half. He began to cough wildly, "Oh no, there must have still been some oxygen in the air to react with the metal, it broke in half!" He gasped for air, but could get none into his lungs.

Antauri tried to get over to Gibson to help, but soon realized the lack of friction in space. He heard his friend take one final gasp of air, and then pass out.

He had no choice but to watch as they drifted apart. As Gibson disappeared from sight, Antauri sighed and closed his eyes in despair.

Suddenly, he felt a strong force pulling him, and a strong constriction around his throat. He was able to squirm enough to turn himself toward the strange force, and through his blurred vision was able to make out a solitary figure before slipping out of consciousness: the blurry yet humongous figure of the Skeleton King.

A/N: Yes, I am evil and I know it. But cliffhangers are what keep everybody coming back for more. Anyway, please review and I'll have the next chapter up within the next few weeks. And Americans, don't forget to check out the new Super Robot Monkey Team episodes on October 24th.
