Dawn of a New Era
Chapter 4: Race on Occa
Chiro's Point of View:
It took a whole couple hours to get ready for take off before we could leave Shuggazoom. Then after that, we still had to locate where the kids had gone off to.
"Antauri, how is that tracker working?" I asked.
"It's still operational, and giving off a signal, but its getting weaker. Chiro, we have little time before the signal is gone completely." Antauri responded.
"I know that Antauri. Gibson, can you see what direction they're heading?"
"From the faint signal we still are obtaining from the children, it seams to be that they are all heading for a lush, green planet called Occa, possibly to get supplies and necessities for your daughter since they left without anything really for her that she might need." He said.
"How soon until we get there?"
"Most likely a hour or so, at most two hours." He said sadly. I sighed and ran a hand threw my thick hair as I looked onto the screen which showed me where my daughter had flown threw only an hour or so ago.
"Chiro, we'll find them." Nova said surly. "Just have patients."
"Have patients? How can I when my daughter is out there and could be hurt? How can I after she just left me like that? Tell me that Nova!" I yelled. She flinched back at my tone and I instantly retreated back. "Nova, I'm sorry. I just can't bear to lose her. I don't want her to get hurt or fight."
Antauri sighed. "Sadly Chiro, the decision is no longer ours. Our children will not listen to us now, being on their own, even for the shortest of time. They will teach her to fight, and then she will fight back. We will have to face our own children, but on what grounds will be mystery for a while."
"I really hope we don't have to fight them Antauri." I gulped, tears forming in my eyes.
"I know you don't Chiro, but it's no longer up to us. Greater powers have taken over control of us all, and we sadly will only be able to follow after." He responded.
"I know Antauri, I know."
Jasmine's Point of View:
It was amazing, as the planet came closer into our sights; it seamed to greener, if that's even possible. The team landed the robot in a very festive area and we all headed out to get our supplies and this I needed and wanted possibly.
"This is where we must split up to gain our supplies faster and before our families come after us." Annabel said. "Olivia, you and Rover are going to stock up supplies on the robot, including food and fuel."
"We're on it Annabel." Rover called as he and Olivia ran off.
"Gabriella and I will go looking for a general store around here to find the necessities for you Jasmine, since I'm pretty sure you need a few more then your father did."
"Yeah.." I said, slightly embarrassed and feeling my face get a little warm.
"We will also look around for some clothes for you. Now we know that you might not like these ones, but they are going to be for working around the robot in so you don't mess up the clothes you are going to want to look nice in. While we do this, you and Rose are going to find any other clothes you may like and some personal effects for your room, to 'brighten it up' so to say."
"You mean I get to pick out some stuff for my room and clothes, whatever I want?" I clarified.
Annabel laughed. "Yes Jasmine, but just don't spend too much. We may have a good amount of money form our parents, but that doesn't make us rich." I nodded and grabbed Rose and took off. I think Rose and I though are going to have a huge disagreement when it comes to clothes.

"These clothes aren't the best you could get, why do you want those, Gabriella and Annabel are probably getting clothes like this right now for you." Rose whined as I looked threw more jeans, sweatpants and shirts.
"Because Rose, I like these kinds of clothes, I don't really like to wear anything super girly like dresses and skirts. I'm just doing as Annabel told me, 'get what I want', and I am, just avoiding girly stuff and pink." I sighed. How much longer will she yell at me for my hatred of girly clothes?
"What's wrong with pink?" She questioned.
"I guess there's nothing wrong with it, but I just don't like it. My mother grew me up are around it so much, that I developed a hatred for it."
"So you won't get anything pink at all?"
"No, but if Annabel and Gabriella get some, I'll just save them for the dirty work." I smirked. Rose gasped then glared at me. I grabbed the clothes I wanted and placed them on the counter. In all I think I grabbed mostly jeans, all different kinds of shirts, and some sweatpants. We had already gotten me some shoes for any kind of weather, which meant all I had left to look for was stuff for my room. Rose paid and we left with more bags of stuff which we handed off to Rover and Olivia, who had finished their work after a short while and came to help us by placing everything back into the robot.
"How much time do we have left?" I asked.
"Annabel and Gabriella said that we shouldn't stay much more then about another hour. So you guys better not take too much longer, it could be very soon that our parents could get here." Rover said.
"Alright, Rose and I will only look into another couple stores. Olivia, you stay with us so you can carry some more stuff back to the robot. Rover, you take back what we have now and stay back at the robot with Annabel and Gabriella. Don't leave unless we call for you. Alright?" I said.
"Yeah, Jazz I got ya." He replied. "Just hurry up, I don't want to face my mom after what we've pulled. She'll probably tear us into pieces." We nodded and headed off toward the next store as Rover headed off toward the robot. The three of us ended up in a store filled with music and art.
"Well, since I already have a laptop to write on, I should get something for music and I love art so I'll get some of that." I said to myself as I grabbed a guitar and a so much art supplies that my arms were over filled.
"That everything Jasmine?" Rose asked.
"Yep, just gotta pay and Olivia can take them back to the robot and we'll head back on foot. If that's alright with you Rose."
"I don't mind. Olivia?"
"Nope, I'll see you guys back at the robot!" She called as she flew off with the last of my things.
"Ready to head back then?" Rose asked. I nodded and we left out of the store. It was so easy to get everything here because the planet was holding a fair in this spot for people of all over the galaxies.
Rose and I headed back up the road threw the many people as we headed back to our robot. It was then though that I felt a shock run threw me. I looked over in the direction that I felt it and saw my father and his monkey team walking off in the direction we came from.
"It says here that she just bought something from the store up here Chiro." Gibson, Gabriella's father said.
"Good, the faster we find them, the better." My father replied.
"Chiro wait!" Antauri cried, Annabel's father. "I feel her power primate; she just passed right by us!"
"Run Rose!" I said as quietly as possible. She couldn't move her way threw the groups of people, so I grabbed her hand and pulled her into my arms and ran off threw the crowd.
"Jasmine, stop!" I heard my father yell. I wasn't thinking about stopping though.
"Rose," I whispered. "Can you fly us back to the robot?"
"I can if we can get an opening." She replied. I could here the footsteps of my father and his team behind us. I sprinted ahead and saw an open area where people were standing no where near the middle.
"Rose, fly!" She nodded and grabbed my hands and flew us out of the center of the square and in the sky with my father and his team still stuck in the crowd. I felt something grab my leg though and turned to see my mother holding onto one of my legs.
"Jasmine, stop struggling!" She cried as I tried to get out of her hard grip. In the heat of the moment, I swung my foot at her and hit her square in the jaw, which sent her flying back. Rose took this moment to fly further away from her and get us closer to our robot. My father's team thought now was in they sky and was catching up to us, that and my mother had regained herself and came after us too.
"What do we do Jasmine?" Rose asked, extremely worried.
I sighed. "Rose, set me down at the opening ahead, I'll take care of my father, and you get back to the robot with the others."
"What!"
"Rose, it's the only way to get them off our tail." I said.
"By giving yourself up? Then what was the point of waiting for you in the first place?"
"Trust me Rose, I never planned on giving up." Realization of what I was planning to do hit her face. She flew us down to the open area in front of the robot.
"Can you do it?" She asked me.
I breathed in deeply. "Yes, yes I can Rose. Now go." She slowly backed away from me before she turned away and ran back to the robot, and most likely inform the others of what I planned to do. I stood there, only a few meters from the robot and watched as my father landed in front of me, his team and my mother behind me.
"Jasmine!" My mother cried and tried to get around my father to get to me, but he held her back.
"Jinmay, stay there. I need to deal with her first." She stepped back from my father and my mother looked at me sadly, almost ready to cry.
"So, you decided to finally give yourself up huh?" He said. "Why did you leave in the first place?"
I looked at him silently. I didn't speak or make a sound. I only had to wait, wait for the right moment to come. I waited in silence as he fumed at me.
"I asked you a damn question and you will answer it!" My father yelled.
"Chiro!" My mother yelled at him. "Don't yell at her like that!"
"Why not Jinmay? She ran away from us along with robot monkeys she doesn't even know!"
"She would have known them if you would have just gotten over yourself!"
I watched my parents bicker in silence, just as I always had. They bickered not only about me, but about their work as well.
"I don't care what you say Jinmay! She's coming home right now and she's never coming back!" He then turned away form my mother and the team and reached out to grab my arm. That was what I was waiting for. As his arm came at me, I moved closer and grabbed his wrist, in his moment of surprise; I jumped behind him and onto his back, twisting his arm behind there. He screamed in pain and everyone tried to get closer, but if they did, I moved my father's arm up higher and he screamed even louder.
"Everyone, stand down." Antauri called. "She may hurt Chiro further if we get too much closer. Stand down and back away." Soon they got to the point where they were further away from me then I was from my robot. It was only then that I let my father go, kicking him in the back before I ran as fast as I could toward the robot.
"Jasmine!" My father screamed. I refused to look back at him and ran toward the robot, diving inside before the door behind me shut and I felt the robot take off. I breathed deeply for a long time before I could move. I was able to sit up on my knees after a while. I couldn't but feel the tears slip down my face. As much as I hate him right now, I couldn't believe I just hurt my father, I attacked him. But it was the only way out.
"Jasmine!" I heard my team call. I looked up at them as I tried to calm my heart beat. They ran up to me and tried to help me stand.
"Jasmine, how were you able to face your father?" Gabriella asked.
"I don't know Gabriella. I guess it must be the fact that I don't want to go back, but I can't even believe it myself that I did that to my father." I said tiredly.
"We have all the supplies we'll need for a long while, after we just threw hyper space, if you want you can start setting up your room how ever you like, or maybe because of the condition your in you might want to rest for a bit first." Annabel said, looking over my tired form.
"No, I'll be ok, I was only running, I just need a minute or two to sit down and then I should be fine." I argued. Annabel looked at me worriedly.
"I'll only agree if you rest until we say you can get up." She said. It was the best chance I had, and the only one.
"Alright, but I don't want to rest for the rest of the day." Annabel nodded to me and the team helped me into the command center and sat me down in one of the chairs.
"Jumping into hyper space, how far away will that put away from my father?" I asked.
"It all depends on if they are tacking us or not." Gabriella said. "If they are tracking us, then jumping into hyper space would have been a waist of time because they would be right on our tails. But if they had no way to track us, then we could lose them for a very long time."
"Wait!" I yelled. "Did you guys find anything like a tracker of any kind on me or my laptop? I don't think there was one on me, but my father bought me that laptop, he must have bugged it."
"Olivia, see if you can find it." Annabel said. Olivia nodded and started to pull apart my laptop after she grabbed it.
"Please don't destroy the memory if you can Olivia." I begged. She gave me a thumbs up and continued to pull it apart my laptop. It was only a few seconds before she found it. She held it up to show us all.
"I found it!" She called. "It was behind the key board, and don't worry Jasmine, the rest of your computer is safe, especially the memory. All you files are safe." I breathed out a sigh of relief and Rover pulled the bug out of Olivia's hand.
"You want to do the honors kid?" He asked me. I nodded and he placed it on the floor at my feet. I stomped on it as hard as I could and it broke into millions of pieces.
"Let's get going team." I said. Rose grinned at the controls and drove us off threw hyper space, leaving my parents in the dust.
"Well.." Gabriella sighed, relieved.
"That was the best day ever!" Olivia cried.
"Yes, and tomorrow will be even better, but for now, its best that we all head to bed." Annabel said. The whole team groaned.
"Is it night time already? And how can we tell from out here in space?" I asked.
"It was sunset back on Occa right before we left." Annabel explained. "Tomorrow, we start our new lives as protects of the galaxies. The second Super Robot Monkey Team starts here and now." She placed her hand in the center of us and her brother and sisters placed their hands atop of her's. I then walked over to them and placed on theirs.
"Hyper Force, Go." I said. The team smiled and we raised our hands in cheers. It was our new beginning, and I was not going to mess it up.
Jinmay's Point of View:
My daughter, she was gone, again. She had attacked her father, but that's understandable, we treated her horribly, but why? How could time have flown by so fast that I didn't even notice it? Was it what ever was part of the children's destiny? Maybe, maybe what ever cause us to lose track of time was behind it, starting out little like leaving Jasmine all alone, and the take it up to bigger levels where we possibly hurt her.
There was one thing I was sure of, my daughter hated us, or mostly Chiro, and I had to find her and at least talk with her, but if I stay with Chiro, I'll never be able to hold my daughter in my arms again.
Everyone was in the robot now; the boys had gone off to plan their next move, all but Nova and I, who were too shaken up by how our daughter's acted. Nova felt horrible for making her daughter have to flee from us and I felt horrible for forcing my daughter into a corner that forced her to hurt her own father. I have to find her, and make things right.
"Nova," I whispered to her, she sat motionless next to me. "I have to go after Jasmine and the kids, I have to make things right."
"You're going to go after them?" She asked.
"Yeah, please don't try to stop me. I have to do this; I want to make things right with my daughter."
"I had no intention of trying to stop you; in fact I want to go with you. I have my own apologies that I have to make to my kids and nieces."
"Ok. We have to hurry though, we can't the guys see us leave. And we can't have any connection with them, so we leave communicators disabled or here." Nova nodded and removed her communicator from her ears and placed it on the ground, I took off mine from on my chest and placed it with her's.
"Let's go Nova." I whispered. We both flew out the back door of the robot's neck and flew in the direction the kids had flown in. We will find them, I'm sure of it.
Witch's Note:
Did any of you see that coming with Jasmine and Chrio, or Nova and Jinmay leaving? It could have gone so many different ways, but I thought this was the best; I hope you enjoyed it and please Review!
Question of the Chapter: When the SRMTHFG was on TV, was it your favorite show, or did another show rank high on you scale of shows you like?
Answer to the Question: It was pretty much the only show I was really interested in for a long time until they stopped showing it when Jetix went down. I hated that, it might have been weird for some, but it was a cute show and I loved watching the shows, and I really wish they would have put out the 5th season!
Review!
