Thunder: Time to make an appearance!


Chapter 14

Being careful not to slip on the root he was climbing, Danny walked down into it into a jungle of tube plants, Stitch at his side. He held his pistol at the ready, feeling as though something, or somebody, was watching him. From the bushes, one green eye could've been seen, that is if whoever was looking didn't notice the yellow hat with a large black stripe and the long ears sticking up from the bushes. Danny turned to see nothing except the rustling of those bushes.

Edging carefully towards the bush of tube plants, his pistol held close. He looked down one of the plants. All was quiet. Suddenly, a face shot in front of his own and let out a yell. Danny let out a yell and fell on his back. The figure then sat on his stomach.

It was a girl with green eyes, really long ears, and what looked like curls sticking out from under a large hat with one black stripe going around a lower part of it and another vertical black stripe. She wore a yellow coat with black on the edgings, black gloves with yellow stripes, dark blue pants, and brown boots. But all of her clothes looked faded and worn. None of this mattered to Danny though. What mattered was that there was a girl on him who looked crazy beyond all belief.

"This is the coolest!" She said, ecstatic. "A human, phantom, type person come to rescue me at last!" The two started standing. "Oh I could just squeeze you...!" She latched herself onto Danny in a bone crushing hug. He pushed her off, but she latched herself on again.

"All right okay, can you let go of me?" Danny said, pushing her off, once again.

"Oh sorry sorry, sorry." She said, draping an arm around his shoulders. "It's just... I've been marooned for so long." Stitch climbed onto her other shoulder. "I mean solitude's fine, don't get me wrong. For heaven's sake, after a hundred years... YoU gO a LItTle NuTS! Ha ha ha!" She yelled that last part, the tips off her ears actually sparking like electricity. The yell surprised Stitch, who lost his balance and fell off.

"Um, kay..." Danny said, unraveling him for her.

"Oh Uh um..." she said, putting a finger on her chin. "I'm uh.. My name is, uh..." she held her head in her hands. Stitch climbed up Danny's shoulder and gave the crazy symbol. Danny just sighed and looked at the experiment.

"Thunder! Of course, I'm Thunder." she said. "Fanfiction writer, weird sketch drawer, and song singer extrodinaire! And you are..." Danny was leaning down to get his dropped pistol.

"Danny." he said

"Oh," Thunder said, taking his reaching hand and shaking it, "pleasure to meet you, Danny boy."

"It's Danny. Just Danny." He said

"So anyway..." Thunder said, leaning on Danny while he was leaning to get the pistol.

"Look I'm kind of in a hurry alright?" Danny said, getting up and walking away from the crazy girl. "I gotta find a place to hide, and there's pirates chasing me."

"Pirates?!" Thunder yelled, running after Danny. "Don't get me started on pirates! I don't like them! I remember captain Voldemort," this made Danny stop and look at her as she sat on a rock, "man, did he have a temper."

"Wait, you knew captain Voldemort?" Danny asked

"I think he suffered from mood swings, personally." she said, getting comfy. "I'm not therapist and anyway, But I, You let me know when I'm rambling!"

"But then-- Wait then you gotta know about the treasure." Danny said. Thunder grew an uncomfortable look on her face.

"Treasure?" she asked

"Yeah! You know, Voldemort's trove, the loot of a thousand worlds?"

"Its kind of a bit... Fuzzy. Wait wait. I remember. Do I?" she said, her ears sparking with every word she had trouble remembering. "I think so! Treasure! Treasure... Lots of treasure! Buried in the, Ugh... centroid... Centroid... CENTROID of the mechanism! And then there was this big door! Opening and closing! Opening and closing! And Captain Voldemort wanted to make sure nobody ever got to it so I... Ugh!! What did I do!!" She held her head as her eyes turned white and her body was enveloped in electricity. "AGH!! AHHH! AAAAH!!" With every outraged cry, an electric pulse was sent to Danny and Stitch, which made them flinch in response.

"Thunder? Thunder? Thunder!" Danny yelled, smacking Thunder across the face. The smack caused her to spin around and stand in the same position she did when they were first introducing each other.

"And you are..." she said

"Wait a minute! What about the treasure?"

"I want to say, Wheeljack."

"The centroid of the mechanism, or something."

"Sorry. It's just I.. Lost my mind." Thunder said, giggling. "Ha ha, I lost my mind! You haven't found it, have ya?" She spun Danny around and had him lean against a tree while frisking him.

"Uh What?" Danny asked

"My missing mind. My stolen memories! It's a long silvery strand in a gray bottle. It has my name on it!"

"Look Thunder, I'd like to help but I gotta find a place to hide. Okay?" Danny said walking away. Thunder watched this and her happy face slowly turned into a sad one.

"Oh well. I guess... I'll just be moving on then. I'm sorry if I was at all... annoying." Thunder said, taking off her hat and wringing it in her hands. "So I guess it's... goodbye then. Sorry I can't be of any use. Bye bye." Thunder began walking away, dropping her hat on the ground. Danny looked at Stitch as he was perched on his shoulder. The blue experiments were bigger than usual, and he looked on the verge of tears.

"Look if you're going to come along, you have to be quiet." Danny sighed. Thunder quickly spun around and jumped in the air.

"Woohoo!! YES!" Thunder ran to Danny, while picking up her hat and putting it on her head, and jumped into his arms. "This is the greatest! Me and my best buddy lookin' for a..." she saw Danny's frustrated face. "Uh... Being quiet now." She made the motion of zipping her lips.

"And you have to stop touching me!" Danny said, pushing Thunder out of his arms. She landed on her feet and backed away.

"Touching and talking. My two big no-noes. Gotcha Danny boy." She said

"Okay, now I think we should..." Danny started to be interrupted by Thunder.

"Hey, um Danny boy?" she said, clenching her robe like she had to go. "Before we start this journey thing can we make a pit stop to my place?" She pulled back some bushes to reveal what looked like an egg shaped building with a hole in it. "It's kind of urgent."

"Thunder," Danny said, a smile showing on his face, "I think you've solved my problem."
