Nova was on the Robots shoulder gazing at the moon. She stared at it, as though it was the only thing alive. She breathed slowly, as she inhaled her veins popped out of her skin. As she exhaled, her muscles grew stronger, the moon was making the werewolf Nova become stronger and more aggressive by the minuet. Like it was some type of fast-acting drug.
"This is Amazing" she panted. "I feel empowered!"
But she wasn't the only one to see the gaze of the moon. Behind the head of the Robot was two green and red monkeys.
"She's been staring at the moon for 20 minuets straight" whispered Sprx.
"Novas now a werewolf and you know what werewolves do" replied Otto.
"Ahh, when have I ever been an expert on monsters?"
"Remember the movie? And remember the werewolf in it, Em. Every night she would stare at the moon to get strength."
Sprx gulped, "So you mean she's getting stronger" he asked nervously?
Otto nodded.
"Oh well that's great!"
"Shh! Werewolves have good hearing. We have to be quite."
"Man, you are an expert" Sprx said as he crouched down like Otto to get a better view of there, now werewolf, teammate.
As Nova inhaled, she smelt something off. Like it didn't belong on the top of the empty shoulder tops of the Robot. She could tell it was something alive. Otto had not mentioned that werewolf's had an amazing sense of smell. She could smell them, she knew they were behind the head of the Robot.
"This will be fun" she chuckled evilly. Then she took a giant breath and let out a bone chilling howl that could be herd out for miles. Otto and SPrx covered there ears it was so loud. Then Nova quickly and quietly turned around and climbed the head of the Robot.
Sprx and Otto came up from there crouching position, Nova was gone.
"Where is she" Sprx asked nervously?
"She was here a second ago" pointed out Otto.
"Yea, but...."
As Otto thought of where his werewolf friend was, a creepy feeling crept over him. As though he and Sprx weren't alone at the moment; and as though something was following them, "Ummm.... Sprx do you get the feeling we're being watched?"
Sprx stared at Otto. He had the same feeling, "Yea...you don't think-"
"She watching us" Otto finished his sentence.
Nova was slowly crawling down the side where Otto and Sprx were hiding. She gazed at her prey and she got ready to ponce and attack. She was hungry for causing fear, so hungry that her mouth ?
Sprx and Otto were mumbling to themselves until when they saw a drop a, what looked like water drip on the floor. They stared at it, the weather had no rain. At the same time, they looked up.
BAM!!!
Nova pounced on the two monkeys. They were in a small state of shock, at one second they saw a small drop of water or drool, and the next a werewolf jumps out of no where and is now on top of them.
"To easy" Nova growled.
"Nova" Sprx called out as he picked himself up "We don't want to hurt you!"
"Hurt me? Ha Ha Ha, Only worry about yourselves" she hissed as she dove into the two monkeys; with her fists at the ready.
"Sprx I think we should do that" panicked Otto as he pushed Sprx out of the way!
Antauri and Chiro were hiding behind Otto's bubble chair. They were keeping an eye on Jin-may as she was at the main computer pressing different buttons. They wanted to make sure Gibson wouldn't get caught as he looked for the book in his lab. So far Jin-may seemed content in just working on the main computer. This worried Antauri, we got a small step closer and activated his long range sight.
"Why are you doing that" asked Chiro?
"I'm trying to see if I can comprehend what Jin-may is doing with our computer" he replied.
"Well, what do you see so far" Chiro whispered curiously?
Antauri re-focussed his eyes, "It doesn't seem as though she's sabotaging any systems. But it dose look like she's trying to activate the security cameras from inside the Robot."
"Is that a bad thing?"
"As long as she doesn't activate the camera in Gibson's lab."
Chiro gulped. "Do you think she'll get to that camera?"
"Jin-may nose the systems, it's only a matter of time."
Chiro got nervous. If Jin-may found Gibson, he would be done for. "I'll warn Gibson threw the communicator, you still keep an eye on Jin-may."
Antauri nodded his head.
Chiro turned on the small devise and began to whisper, "Chiro to Gibson, you there?"
Gibson was in his lab, he was on top of a stool looking at the top shelf. He remembered how he organized all his books. As he began scanning the shelf, he got the message, "Yes, Chiro" he said.
Chiro was on the other line, speaking in a whisper "Look, Jin-may is trying to activate the cameras so she can find us. If she find your lab camera...."
Gibson realized he didn't have allot of time, he had tough Jin-may most of the systems for the robot. Like Antauri said it is only a matter of time. "Yes of corse" he replied "I will hurry."
"Good, let us know if you have any trouble, Chiro out."
"There will be no need for his assistance" Gibson thought as he continued his scanning the shelf. "I know his lab like the back of my cir-cuts, I know where everything is. And the sooner I get the book, I can show everyone that this whole pan is utterly ridiculous!" He continued to scan the first shelf, he knew the book was there because that's how he organized the shelves. Since he couldn't really reach the top, all the books he didn't really use were there, the book had to be there. But it wasn't.
"This is absurd" Gibson said aloud. He knew where everything was placed, how could anything be missing? He then checked the other shelf, then the next, and the next until he scanned the whole book shelf. This didn't make any sense. Gibson to loose something? And for when he needed the missing item the most! Something was wrong. Gibson knew it. He then went to the communicator.
"Gibson to Chiro" he said.
"Yea Gibson, I'm here" came Chiro through the communicator.
"Chiro, I dont know how to comprehend this, but......the book...is...missing."
"What! You never loose anything!"
"Exactly. I know exactly which spot I put that book in. I have never touched it, and now it's gone dont."
"Somethings wrong."
"My thoughts exactly."
"Okay, Jin-may is about a minuet away from getting that camera ready. You have to get out."
"Alright" he agreed. "I'll leave now."
"Okay, Chiro out."
Before leaving, Gibson looked again at the bookshelf. "I know I didn't miss-place that book" he though. "Someone must be behind this." He then very quietly ran out of the lab.
"Sprx, Look Out" called Otto!
Nova punched Sprx full in the stomach, almost making him fall over the edge of the Robot's shoulder, but he was caught by Otto.
"Ha Ha Ha" Nova laughed evilly! "What did I tell you? Only worry for yourselves! You both are pitiful!"
"Come on Nova" yelled Sprx as Otto pulled him up! "Snap Out Of It! You don't want to do this."
"Oh think again Red Meat! I do!" She got into her fighting stance "Boom Boom Wake Up!"
Otto and Sprx dodged her by a hair. "I'm sorry Nova" said Otto as he re-activated his saws "Scritch, scratch, Doomthrower!" He threw the blade, hoping that it wouldn't hurt Nova, but trip her up.
Nova saw the blade out of the corner of her eye. She turned around, opened her mouth and caught it. The blade then seemed useless as Nova broke it in half with her teeth.
"Ah-Oh" Otto whimpered.
Nova charged, "Knuckle Duster!"
Otto knew Nova was to close and there wasn't enough time to dodge her punch, so he stood there and closed his eyes.
Sprx saw his friend. "Otto" he yelled as he started up his magnets! Sprx then shot a magnetic pull, since Otto was metal, he would come with the flow with no problem.
"Thanks" he said as he came out of Nova's path.
"No prob."
Nova then got the trick that Sprx had pulled, he did not like it one bit. She ran to Sprx and when she was close enough, she grabbed his magnets. "Twirler and Hurler!" She spun him like a rag doll and then threw him against the Robots head.
"Too easy" she called out!
"Ahh my head."
"Sprx" Otto said as helped his friend up, "we need help. Werewolves are WAY stronger then the two of us."
"Oh yea, like I haven't noticed that!"
Nova began to charge again. "Run" Otto called as he dragged Sprx behind him! He headed to the door that led to back into the robot.
"How is heading inside going to help us" asked Sprx?
"Hey it's better then to fall off the edge!"
"Good point."
They slipped through the door with Nova rite on their tail.
"Well, now where should we go" asked Sprx as they both ran for there lives?
"Umm, I didn't think that far ahead."
"WHAT!"
Nova lunged missing Sprx's tail by an inch. "Okay, that's it!" Sprx turned on his jet pack and began zooming forward.
"Why didn't you think of this sooner" asked Otto as he too turned on his jet pack?
"Oh, SHUT UP and follow me!" Sprx made a sharp left and headed to the tubes. Nova gained speed and was again on their tail.
"Were not gonna make in" Otto called!
"Well, thats positive!"
They flew as fast as they could, "Otto which tube can controls the others?"
"Antauri's."
"Okay then, lean right!"
They leaned right until they were heading straight to Antauri's tube. They gained more speed and landed head first into the crammed tube. The detector beeped and they headed down.
"Otto first get off me and then find the panel and some how make sure only this tube moves and Nova doesn't go anywhere!"
"You got it chief!" Otto got off of Sprx and undid a cable wire.
"Okay, she can't get to any of the tubes."
"Hopefully."
"Okay, now what do we do?"
"I say we find the kid and the others. Then come up with a plan."
"Sounds good! But I wonder" Otto trailed off in thought.
"What?"
"Well, I was thinking. Do you think Nova can rip threw the tubes?"
"I hope not!"
The boys were back in there same hiding spot.
"Are you sure you can't locate it" asked Antauri still in a whisper.
"Yes, it doesn't make any sense."
"Well, maybe it dose" Chiro spoke up. "You never touched that book. It only stayed in your book shelf, and now it's missing. It has to be more then a coincidence."
Antauri nodded his head "I agree. The book must serve a purpose in what is going on."
"Antauri-"
"Gibson, stop being incredulous, now your whole method of figuring things out is to be logical" Antauri pointed out. "Be logical here. What other conclusion can you conclude?"
Gibson's face fell, "None" he admitted. "But this still makes no sense! Who would want to steel that book, knowing it contains this so called magic, and know how to control it?"
"Well, there are a couple of people who I think would like to mess with us" said Chiro.
"Yes, but now we must find Otto and Sprx. Then-"
Antauri was cut off by Sprx's voice threw the communicator, "Yo kid, you there?"
"Yea Sprx we're all here" Chiro responded.
"Good. Look we lost Nova.....for now. What are we gonna do now?"
"Well we have a small dilemma" Chiro explained about the missing book and there suspicions on how it contributed in the chaos.
"Wow, so what should we do" asked Otto?
"We'll be waiting for you at the bottom of Antauri's tube. We'll think of something there."
"Alright kid, Sprx out."
"Okay lets go." They all quietly tip toed away from Jin-may and headed to the tubes and waited. About 30 seconds later Otto and Sprx arrived at the end of the tubes.
"Well that when smoothly" said Gibson.
"Yea, well it didn't up on the roof" said Sprx.
"Man Nova's an animal" said Otto.
"That's maybe why she's a dog, Otto" Chiro pointed out.
Sprx glared at him, "No efface."
"Wait" said Antauri "do you all hear that?"
"Hear what" asked Otto?
Suddenly loud thumps came from the tube next to Antauri.
"Ah-Oh."
"Here comes our werewolf now" said Gibson. "Hide!"
They all ran to a spot where there seemed to be no cameras as Nova ripped the metal tube open.
Nova growled in frustration "The second I get my claws on those two" she hissed!
"Nova, where have you been" asked Jin-may?
"I had visitors."
"Oh, well I can see you lost them."
Nova growled "When I find them-"
"Well, try and find them! I've checked all the cameras and can't find them!"
"Oh I don't need cameras" said Nova as she got to the ground.
"Ahh, there sent. Maybe your helpful after all."
"Just keep talking" Nova continued to sniff. She came to one of the bubble chairs where Gibson was hiding.
Nova jumped him "This isn't the meat I was looking for" she said, "but I found one morsel." Nova then passed Gibson to Jin-may
Everyone else came out of there hiding spots.
"Let him go" said Chiro!
Jin-may gave an evil gin "Oh, so now we found everyone! This game of hide-and-go-seek was getting old any way!"
"Release him" said Antauri as he activated his ghost claws!
"Oh, I'm sorry, but we'll have to say no on that!"
Chiro stepped forward "I'm sorry Jin-may!" He got into his fighting stance, "Lightning Kick!"
Jin-may then (by using her mind) caused Chiro to fall face flat on his face. Then Nova grabbed his feet and preformed the same Twirler and Hurler attack she committed to Sprx on the roof.
Everyone activated their weapons, "Gibson, come on" yelled Sprx as he shot a beam of electricity to get Novas attention!
"I Can't" Gibson struggled! "It is as though she's put a spell on me that disconnects my circuits breakers."
"What" yelled Sprx as he dodged another lightning bolt from Jin-mays other free hand?
"I CAN'T MOVE!"
"Oh."
Antauri dove for his friend "Monkey Mind Sc-" Nova jumped up and pushed Antauri out of the way.
"CHANGE HIM NOW, I CAN'T HOLD THEM OFF!"
"What are you saying" called Chiro?
"Oh, only a small miner transformation" Jin-may raised her hand to Gibson's for-head.
Everyone got the message on what was coming. They all yelled, "No!"
"Oh don't worry," said Jin-may "you'll all follow the fate!" Her voice turned scratchy and horse as she said "La sector da bat es vampire!"
"NO" they all yelled!
Nova chuckled as the transformation was processed. Gibson fell from Jin-mays grasp and started squirming on the floor as his teeth turned sharp. The hyper force (well the non-monster part) crowded around there painful friend. Gibson's face was now pale and his fur was turning black and gray; as though he was aging at tremendous speed. His eyes then turned red, but the worst part was when, from his back shoulder blades, his wings grew in.
