Tier 2 Chapter 3 Version 2

"Now approaching Sector W," the computerized, but surprisingly feminine, voice of the Frigate said over the intercom. "Preparing Dimensional Warp field. Captain, we have a minor anomaly en route."

"Uhhhh..." Rallen was still a little shaken by the fact that the ship spoke back. "I-is is anything y-you can identify?"

"Appears human," the Frigate said, "but it gives off a pattern of light waves which can only be identified as Spectral." The data showed up on-screen.

"Uh, continue with programmed mission, but, uhhh... use caution...?" Rallen couldn't quite grasp the set of commands Jeena had told him about. The term 'be careful' would have been read as 'turn on all weapons and shoot unidentified objects' while 'just go ahead' would be misread as 'change course to directly foreward.'

The portal opened and closed around the ship as it began its journey to the Kaio system.

About halfway between the two ends of the portal, a loud thunk could be heard coming from the direction of the airlocks. Rallen, not accustomed to the use of airlocks, jumped up and ran to the door. When he opened the door to see what had made the sound, all the air on the top floor of the ship began being sucked out.

"Close that door, you idiot!" Jeena shouted over her shoulder. Rallen quickly slammed the door before all the oxygen was leeched from his lungs.

"Computer... uh..." Rallen tried to remember the proper command.

"I have a name," the frigate retorted with what could almost be described as frustration in her/its mechanical voice.

"Oh... right..." Rallen stuttered. "Jeena, what's our ship's name?"

"I wasn't aware it had one," Jeena replied with a shrug.

"It's Artemis," the computer voice explained, "you two should have noticed that it's written across my hull."

"Jeena, is the T-800 series supposed to have a personality?" Rallen asked Jeena Quetly.

"Ahem!" the computer... coughed?... "weren't you trying to ask me to do something?"

"Right, uh..." Rallen stuttered. "Artemis, close outer airlock door number two, then open inner airlock door number two... please..."

"Command received, acting... now," Artemis said in her usual monotonous voice.

What came in through the airlock was not like anything either of the NPP officers had ever seen. He looked human, but there were definite features that were similar to a Vilamasta. He had a large horn-like structure with two prongs at the end that emerged from his forehead. Draped over his shoulders were two stone-like wing cases. The backs of his hands had elliptical rubies embedded into them, and his fingers were tipped by claw-like fingernails. There were multiple other features that made him similar to a Spectrobe, but they were too small to notice at the time.

"Spectrobe masters!" the strange man said as he bowed in a way that was creepily similar to the way Jado bows to Krux. "I have searched the galaxy for the two of you, but more importantly, I was looking for you," he then reached forward and held Jeena's right hand in his claws.

"I think you've got the wrong person," Jeena said shakily. "I'm not a real Spectrobe master, I just help Rallen when we're in Kaio." She then pulled her hand away.

"You misunderstand me," the being stated as he stood up. "Because you have wielded the Spectrobes' power once before, you are just as much a Spectrobe master as he, but that is not why you are the one I sought. I came to you so that we may form the ultimate Spectrobe master."

"We?" Jeena asked in astonishment. "Who, we? You and me, we, or you and an occult group, we? Who is 'we'?"

"You and I are to form the ultimate Spectrobe master," he said with dramatic enphasis. "Think about it, the krawl would tremble at our child's every step."

"Wait! Hold on a minute!" Rallen shouted at the top of his lungs. "Your child? As in... what exactly are you implying?"

"Warning," Artemis said over the intercom, "testosterone is at a dangerous level, caution is advised."

"It is as I said," the man stated flatly. "I wish for a child by Jeena."

"What?" Rallen and Jeena shouted simultaneously.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy writing this chapter. I just can't believe I didn't think about this on my own.

Special thanks to Twiliunicorn for this idea, it was awesome!

I am once again forced to put down that: This is an interactive fanfic, I need people to read and contribute to it or else it will FAIL. So far I've loved the crossover ideas almost as much as the rest of them, and when I say I'll accept any idea, I mean I will even accept a Spectrobes/Hetalia crossover idea.

I don't own Spectrobes or any copyrighted blah blah blah and the kitchen sink.
