Author's Note: Hello people! Sorry for the delay but now I'm redoing chapter 4! This chapter is where an evil OC of mine, Bloodstone appears again. Oh and me and SSP saw Belly of the Beast just an hour ago! It was AWESOME! I mean REALLY awesome! Antauri was sooooo cute in the episode and Earth in the episode was cool too! I cannot believe how really humongous they made Nova in that episode! She was my favorite monkey too! At least she shrunk back to normal when TV Monster zapped her. That was good. Oh and Sparks and Nova hugged! That was such a cute Sparks and Nova fluffy! I may make a Lapis/Gibson fluff like that! I better get started on chapter 4 now! Here's chapter 4! Please read and review! NO flames!

CHAPTER 4: A New Threat

Mandarin and Sakko were sitting near a lake which is close to the iceberg place where Gibson found Lapis and Lazuli. They were both angry that they failed to catch the Monkey Team, especially the baby they almost had but she blew them up with her Monkey Mind Scream In-Training.Sakko despised that so much that he wanted to kill the purple monkey but they don't know where they were now.

"I told you we should've used the plan I suggested to catch that little brat!" Sakko abrupted at Mandarin and he looked down at the one eyed monkey.

"I don't care! That plan wasn't even going to work anyway! We almost got her until she managed to hack into our systems to get that SOS signal past us. How could that little brat be so intellegent even when she was still an infant back then?" Mandarin said and Sakko got up.

"She must have that black monkey's DNA and his abilities. She did have his claws, right?" Sakko said when Mandarin saw something swimming towards them.

"What's that?" Mandarin asked Sakko as he saw something approaching them. They were shocked to see a big black ship in front of them and setting itself ashore.

Mandarina and Sakko moved a few steps away from the ship and saw a monkey appear. He was maroon with yellow eyes, a black cape with a red fire symbol on it, bright orange metalparts and a darker red burnmark on his left eye and he was walking out of the ship with his uncle behind him. They saw the monkey, Bloodstone walk towards them and Mandarin was happy to see him.

"Well well well, we seem to have new comers! Nice to meet you! I am Mandarin and this is Sakko" Mandarin said introducing himself and now shaking Bloodstone's hand with his finger. Bloodstone looked at him with his mad face but he actually liked Mandarin.

"Have you seen two blue monkeys around here? One had a beige stomach and the other one had a cape. Have you seen them?" Bloodstone asked looking at both of them with his uncle, Tenma looking worried.

"I hope you're not planning anything Bloodstone" Tenma said and Mandarin looked down at them.

"I'm sorry but I have not seen those kind of monkeys. I am truly sorry young monkey but I can maybe help you out in finding them" Mandarin said and Bloodstone looked up at him. Sakko walked next to Mandarin.

"Wait! I remember seeing two blue monkeys with the Hyperforce once. They may be at the Super Robot" Sakko said and Bloodstone looked at him.

"Take me to them, now!" Bloodstone demanded and Mandarin picked him and Tenma up and placed both monkeys on both his metal shoulders and Mandarin and Sakko and the two other monkeys to the Super Robot.

As for the Monkey Team, a day had passed and the team is showing Lapis and Lazuli around Shuggazoom. They have already seen the bakery, the ice cream shop, Mr. Gackslapper's meat place and the flowers and plants place. The team were now showing them the craft store.

"This is Shuggazoom's arts and crafts store. It's half famous but people don't mind going in there for anything" Chiro said explaing stuff about the craft store to the two blue female monkeys. Lapis and Lazuli were amazed.

"Wow! This is great! I use to sew alot when I was part of my team" Lapis said looking through the window.

"I'm not good at sewing" Lazuli said.

"Now let's check out more of Shuggazoom!" Chiro said and the team now stormed off. A few more hours had passed and the team were now done touring Shuggazoom and getting ready for dinner. Sparks, Chiro, Otto, Nova and Yuri wanted the meatballs and Gibson, Antauri, Shinju, Lapis and Lazuli felt like having sauce on them with no meatballs. However, Michiko only had to eat a tiny bit of spagetti for dinner. Antauri said that she cannot eat so much for some reason and Michiko wanted to know why. They now started eating their dinner. As the minutes pass, Michiko, Shinju and Lapis were done with their dinner and wanted to go out for a little bit to have some air.

"So Lapis, can you sing that song again? I really like that song" Michiko asked when Shinju looked confused.

"What song?" Shinju asked.

"Well I would like to but sometimes when I'm around people, I get kind of nervous to sing because I'm shy at times too. But I would love to sing this other song I know but only half of it" Lapis said and began to sing.

I'm falling in love with you, and which will come to pass?
Will the feeling do nothing but swell, or
Will you notice it Even though I've never said anything?

Like snow, but quietly
It continues to pile up

Hold me tight if I think like this
I didn't want to know
What it was like to fall in love with someone
I love you; my tears won't stop
Therefore, I should be free of you

Lapis now sung a new song but Michiko meant the song she heard Lapis sing earlier but she didn't want to pressure her so she kept her mouth shut when Lapis saw something in the distance. The rest of the team ran out to them and Lazuli ran to Lapis.

"What is that?" Lazuli asked herself when she saw someone or some people coming. As the shadow faded away, what they saw shocked them. It was Mandarin holding Sakko, Bloodstone and Tenma and a few of Bloodstone's soldiers approaching with them. They stopped in front of the whole team and Bloodstone jumped off of Mandarin and walked up to Lapis and Lazuli.

"I've finally found you two at last" Bloodstone said evilly and Lapis and Lazuli just froze.

Author's Note: I'm done chapter 4! I'll get chapter 5 up pretty soon! I just downloaded episode 4 of this anime called Air and it was so cool! I screamed when the lady committed suicide because the priest wanted her to kill her baby. Oh and what does 'slit your wrist' mean? Cause that was what the mother did to herself when her baby was supposed to be killed. I hope nothing like that happens to anyone else. Oh and sorry this chapter was short. Oh and about the lyrics, they're the english translation of a 3rd ending song for the anime 'Full Moon wo Sagashite' performed by a member of a japanese group called 'Changin' My Life'. I better go now. I gotta study for a dumb social studies test (I HATE TESTS! they're sooooo hard!). Wish me luck! Bye bye for now!
