I've been sick for a while... WITH BIEBER FEVER! Just kidding! XD Sorry, but I'm not much of a Beiber fan... i don't hate him, i just don't like the music... DX

Coco had Adriana strip down and walk into the scanner. The cold air brought goosebumps onto the darker bandicoot's skin. She shivered slightly and was prepared to cover herself with her arms when Coco shouted stop. "Don't! It could confuse the scanner on what exactly its doing. Just hold still for a moment and you can put your clothes back on." She said, rapidly typing. A bar of green light went over the girl once... twice... three times until it went away. She finally stepped out and began to put her clothing back on as Coco did the final analysis herself. "It's positive!" Adriana was ready to throw something in anger. "You're not pregnant!" She looked at Coco with narrowed eyes and the blond laughed to herself.

"If i wasn't so edgy i'd probably hurt you right now." She said, voice sarcastic.

"Aren't I so lucky?" Coco said with equal sarcasm. She went over the scans again. "Looks like you're not bugged. But we can't take any chances, I'll keep going over these. Do you mind bringing in your sister?"

"How about after her nap?"

Outside of the lab

Crash and Crunch were waiting anxiously, then the door opened to reveal Coco and Adriana bickering. "We have to do it now! If she really is bugged, now is the time." Coco said, trying to make a point.

"And I say you can wait til after her nap! I'm sorry, but I'd rather not have a baby screaming and crying as she's being scanned." She fought.

"What is going on here?" Aku-Aku asked, breaking up the bickering.

"We need to scan Samantha right now, but her sister keeps saying to wait! What if it's a serious one? Ever think of that?" Coco challenged.

"If it was something serious, I would have known! So stop insisting that it is!" The bickering continued once again.

Crash and Crunch got themselves comfortable, because this was just about the first catfight they've seen since Tawna left.

"SILENCE!" Both girls shut their mouths and looked at him guiltily. "You two need to stop fighting and come to an agreement. So get along!" Both girls were silent and stared at their feet in shame.

"I apologize for my arrogance." Adriana said, bowing her head.

"And... I guess we could wait til after Samantha's nap. I mean, she's just a baby right?" Coco said. They came to an understanding and Aku-Aku seemed pleased.

"Aw... and it was about to get good!" Crunch complained, and snapped his fingers in disappointment. Crash mimicked his moves. Adriana giggled a little, then heard a very loud sound. Everyone covered their ears from the horrible sound.

"What the heck is this!" Adriana yelled.

"It's the natives! They go on their hunt for extra food every 3 months!" Coco yelled. Crash ran out and came back with a sobbing Sammy and tissues in both their ears. Soon enough the sound ceased and everyone was free to remove the things in their ears. Crash handed Sammy to her older sister. The baby sighed, eyes watery still but now calmer.

"Thanks Crash. I owe you for saving my sister's eardrums." Adriana said, relieved. Crash only nodded his understanding with a big grin. "So, do the natives ever come here for the hunt?"

"Well, no. They've never come here, not in big groups at least." Coco said.

"They know I'll pummel em into paste if they try!" Crunch said angrily, punching his own palm and acting tough. He went out of the room, then flinched and shook his flesh hand in pain. Sometimes he forgot that he had a metal limb.

"Nice to know you've got a bodyguard." Adriana said with a chuckle.

"He just had a bad run in with them once." Coco said.

Flashback

Crunch woke from his 6 hour sleep to find himself dangling upside down by a rope and right above his head was a bubbling cauldron. Surrounding were the natives, all chanting. The cheif jiggled his huge belly and began to stir the green liquid in the cauldron. Crunch began to struggle, but then the natives began to poke him with their spears. Quickly, Crunch broke the ropes, but ended up falling into the boiling cauldron.

End of Flashback

"Wow... did he scream?" Adriana asked. Sammy blinked groggily and yawned. Coco shrugged.

"He said it was painful, but he didn't. He was lying through his teeth I bet. Now that your sister is more awake, lets get to that scan." The girls chatted away as they went into the lab, Adriana holding Sammy over her shoulder. Crash looked back at Adriana, and thought he saw the baby wink at him slyly. But he just blew it off as nothing and went onto his normal doings, taking a nap.

Coco's Lab

After about ten minutes, Adriana held the shivering baby. "I thought you said it wouldn't take so long to get the scan!"

"I did, it's just that it took a little longer because your sister is only a infant." Adriana came up behind Coco and looked at the computer screen.

"So? How is she?" Coco typed rapidly before finishing.

"The scans came out negative. Your sister isn't bugged. But I will double check on both of you after a period of time, just in case."

2 Days later

Things were going on normally, but Adriana refused to be anymore than five feet away from the little baby bandicoot. She put Sammy on the floor near where Crash was sleeping before she was about to sit. "Hey, I made this new hovercraft just last week. Wanna check it out?" Coco asked.

"Sounds cool. But is it child safe?"

"You can just leave her with Crash! It's not like he's that irrisponsible." Saying that seemed to only make Adriana more edgy, but Coco really wanted to show her the hovercraft. "Crash!" The male bandicoot shot awake and looked at his sister, full attention for about three seconds. "Keep an eye on Samantha, okay?" Crash just went back to sleep. Coco and Adriana went into the lab, and Sammy played with her fur until she saw a wumpa fruit lying on the floor. Excited, she crawled after it, but then it rolled away when she got too close. The baby drooled and was starting to want a snack, so she followed it outside. The wumpa fruit stopped rolling away after ten meters away from the house. She munched on the fruit... then a net closed in around her. She wailed very loudly. Crash woke back up and looked around to see no one. He went back to sleep, shrugging it off when he sprang off the bed, remembering that he was supposed to look after the baby. Pura came out of the room finally, drowsy. Aku-Aku came in, freaking out.

"The natives have captured Samantha! Crash, you have to find her before they make her their next meal!" Crash ran out of the house, and saw foot prints. He ran in the closest passage to the village, through the cave and over the river, of course, he had to get past all the spears, fire, poison darts, bear traps, and finally, huge boars. Finally, after maybe ten minutes, Crash made it to the village. He and Aku-Aku snuck through the brush as the villagers chanted some spell, with baby Sammy sobbing being tied up on a stake and being spun around like a rotissery chicken over a fire. Crash could smell the delicious scent of other various foods being prepared with it, and rubbed his tummy while licking his lips. "No Crash! Save her first, then you can eat when we get back!" Aku-Aku said, trying to keep his mind focused. But he didn't listen, instead he charged in there and spun, knocking everyone out along with making the cheif put the fire out... with his own rear end.

"Babababab!" Sammy babbled, then giggled as Crash undid the ropes and began to throw her into the air. "Gaaa!" She said happily. Crash was about to exit the village when the natives began to get up, one at a time. They took their spears and surrounded him. Crash, not thinking at all, jumped on the head of one native and while carrying Sammy, ran down the more excruciating path. He jumped over a wide gorge, making Sammy giggle and pretend she was flying. Crash held her in the air as he did, and then jumped on TnT boxes to make rock falls as he fled down a hill. "EAABAAAA!" She giggled even more now as Crash was making things a whole lot harder for him.

Meanwhile

"And then I used a 5.9 laser for the outer shell. I had to burn through it for six hours until I finally got a big enough hole-" coco went on about how she made the hovercraft, and Adriana sighed as she was sitting in a chair. This was almost as boring as being in Cortex's classroom, where she and other of his creations were taught to only serve Cortex and follow his every command by a robot.

"Mhmm..." She mumbled. Hope Sammy is having more fun than I am...

Back to Crash

An entire mob of natives were chasing after him, spears flying left and right, and Sammy was giggling and now hiccuping. Crash just ran and ran, trying to get away as fast as he could. He jumped onto a stone pillar in the middle of a gorge, and jumped to the other side just before it fell into a bunch of tall spikes. Crash turned to see the natives stuck on the other side. He stuck out his tongue, and made faces until they threw a barrage of spears.

"Woah!" He ran off, the spears just about skewering him and Sammy.
