Tech-Star: Then I hope you enjoy!

So what do you do when you learn that your boss has a new kid? You spoil the hell out of her of course!


"So, remind me, why are we here again?" Chop Chop had to ask. Earlier that morning, Ghost Roaster had suddenly dragged him and Hex off on what he claimed was a mission. But so far, he had been rather quiet on just what the reason was.

"I'm getting to that, bone boy!" Ghost Roaster snapped at his fellow undead Skylander. "So, Sky."

"Are you going to brag about being her favorite again?" Chop Chop interrupted him. Ghost Roaster had somehow managed to become one of Sky's favorite Skylanders. No one was exactly sure how someone like him managed to win over a child, but he wouldn't let anyone hear the end of it.

"LET ME SPEAK!" Ghost Roaster snapped. "It is partly because of that, but I wanted you guys to get some of the love too!"

"Right…" Hex was unsure of just what Ghost Roaster was planning, but knowing him, it couldn't be this simple. Right?

"I am a hundred percent sincere on this," Ghost Roaster attempted to assure them. When he saw that they still didn't believe them, he sighed. "Fine, I swear on Eon's name that I really do want to help you out on this." This startled Chop Chop and Hex quite a bit. Swearing on Eon's name was someone a Skylander only did if they truly meant everything they said.

"Very well then. What is your plan?" Chop Chop asked.

"Glad you asked!" Ghost Roaster said. "Now, I was eavesdropping in the Realm of the Undead when I heard that Kaos managed to recover a hydra egg."

"He WHAT!?" Hex exclaimed. She was normally rather stoic, so her having an outburst like that proved she was nervous.

"Luckily, he hasn't managed to actually get it back to his base in the Outlands yet," Ghost Roaster continued. "So I was thinking, not only do we steal the egg back, we also get Sky a new pet!"

"Hmmm…" Chop Chop put his hand to his chin. This idea was interesting. Not to mention, he had been vying to earn Sky's favor for a while now. But he was always busy training some of the newbies. Not to mention, with how rare and powerful hydras were, having one on their side versus Kaos' side would tip things in their favor. "I am in favor of this mission!"

"As am I," Hex agreed with a nod. "Kaos having a hydra will spell problems for us in the future. Plus, Sky will no doubt love it! So, Ghost Roaster, do you know where the hand off is going to be?"

"Not much further from here," Ghost Roaster reported. "Follow me!" Chop Chop and Hex both nodded as they continued after Ghost Roaster. Much like he had said, it wasn't too far from where they had spoken. Speaking out from the bushes, they noticed only a few trolls standing around.

"It appears the egg hasn't arrived yet," Hex noted, making sure to keep her voice down. As stupid as trolls normally were (Boomer was…something of an exception), their large ears weren't for show and if they had the element of surprise, the mission would most likely go much faster.

"Remember, we attack as soon as we see the egg come out," Ghost Roaster reminded his allies. Both nodded and turned back to the clearing.

"Hey, so what's boss want this egg for?" One troll asked.

"Said something about using the power to destroy the Core of Light," Another claimed. The three Skylanders shared nervous looks. That would be bad. However, this only increased their drive to get the egg away from the trolls and Kaos.

"Look!" Chop Chop pointed his sword towards an incoming ship. Once it landed, some undead trolls walked off. Sure enough, the egg was in one of their hands.

"One hydra egg fresh from the Realm of the Undead!" One undead troll reported as he held up the egg. A living troll laughed.

"Perfect for the boss' plans!" He cackled as he went to grab it.

"NOW!"

"Huh?" All of the trolls quickly found themselves blindsided as Hex, Ghost Roaster and Chop Chop began their assault. While they were outnumbered, the trolls were so startled that they didn't have any time to recover their weapons. Thus, the battle ended rather quickly.

"Is the egg okay?" Hex asked.

"Looks good to me!" Ghost Roaster declared as he held said egg up.

"Then I believe it is time to report back to Master Eon," Chop Chop said, his tone giving away the fact he would be smiling if he could.


"Well done, you three!" Eon declared with pride. While he wasn't pleased that Ghost Roaster didn't tell anyone else about the hydra egg trade, he couldn't say he wasn't grateful they had managed to recover it. Had it fallen into Kaos' hands.

Eon shivered. As…insane as Kaos could be, he could be a very effective evildoer if he put his mind to it.

"It's our pleasure, Master Eon," Hex replied with a bow. "And we hope Sky enjoys her new pet."

"I believe she will," Eon replied with a nod. While he wasn't sure that a hydra was a beginner pet, he did have quite a few Skylanders who were good with animals that could help out.


"Look, there is no way I'm lettin' those undead freaks monopolize all of Sky and Aurora's favor!" Terrafin barked. After word had gotten around about Ghost Roaster, Chop Chop and Hex's gift to Sky, many others had begun attempting to find their own gifts to return with for Sky/Aurora.

(The two girls had decided that they would share the hydra once it hatched)

"We get that, but what are we even looking for?" Bash asked. He was not happy to have been dragged away from his date and from what he could tell, Flashwing wasn't either.

"And why couldn't you ask anyone else?" Flashwing asked.

"Because you two were the first people I could find!" Terrafin replied. "Now shut up and help me find this!" He then pulled out a scroll that had a picture of two pearls on them. "From what I've heard, these pearls are meant to symbolize the bond between the two that wear them. Perfect gift for the two girls, right?"

"Yeah! But why didn't you bring Prism Break or Drill Sergeant? Wouldn't they be better for this?" Bash pointed out.

"Because Prism Break is on his own mission and I'm still getting used to being around Drill Sergeant," Terrafin explained as he rubbed his arm. Bash and Flashwing nodded sympathetically. When Terrafin had accidentally awoken Drill Sergeant, the robot had taken to calling him master. While Terrafin had made his first order not to serve him, Drill Sergeant still had a habit of calling him master, which he was attempting to stop. Still, it was slow going.

"Alright, we'll help," Flashwing agreed, with Bash nodding next to her. "So where are these pearls?"

"Embedded in the wall of that cave over there!" Terrafin declared as he pointed towards said cave opening. "C'mon!"


"You sure this is gonna work, Slam?" Gill Grunt asked.

"Of course I am!" The yeti replied. Much like their fellows, the two water Skylanders, along with Wham Shell and Flip Wreck, had headed out in order to find a present for the girls. And considering how many shipwrecks could be found in the watery areas of the Skylands, it shouldn't have been hard.

But for some reason, they just couldn't seem to find one!

"Perhaps we should try another region?" Wham Shell offered. "Maybe the wrecks in this one were already cleared out?"

"That is impossible," Flip Wreck chimed in. "There is always a wreck to find in any water in Skylands!"

"He's got a point, Shell," Gill Grunt said as he turned to face the former ruler. He then swam right into a ship.

"Nice finding, Gill Grunt!" Slam Bam cheered. "Now let's get looking!"


Eon facepalmed. He was massively regretting his choice to introduce Sky and Aurora to the Skylanders. The hydra was one thing, but now, just about every current Skylander was bringing the girls presents. The pearls from the earth Skylanders, the crowns from the water Skylanders, and the list goes on! Still, he was grateful that they liked the girls. It would make Sky becoming their leader a bit easier.


Yeah, this chapter was basically an excuse for me to show off some of my favorite Skylanders. I would have had Trigger Happy too, but he could easily just give the girls some of his gold. Not to mention, I couldn't come up with more scenarios, but I tried, believe me. Also, if you are wondering why Flip Wreck and Flashwing appeared when they aren't official characters until Trap Team and Giants respectively, I feel like the games that the cores joined aren't the exact point they became Skylanders. So expect cores to show up basically wherever I want.
