Me: Welcome to Chapter Seventeen!

Antauri: We get to go home!

Chiro: Yahoo!

Antauri: (Laughs and cuddles Chiro.) We'll hopefully get back with no trouble.

Me: (Amine sweat drop.) Um… not so simple Antauri.

Antauri: What do you mean?

Me: Remember who you were battling before you were… reborn.

Antauri: Yes.

Me: He sent a second fleet. (I become extremely interested with the spot of burnt carpet on the floor.)

Antauri: Aunna…

Me: Can we get this over with?

Antauri: Yes… (Question marks surround his head.)

Me: I do not own SRMTHFG.

Antauri and Chiro: Read and Review…

Chapter Seventeen: Blind

Chiro was all better in the morning. We have the power primate to thank for that. If Chiro hadn't had the power primate his injuries would have taken days to heal. The boy was still sleeping in the cot. I frowned. I didn't want to wake him out of his slumber but I had no other choice. I walked up the cot and slightly shook Chiro. "Chiro," I said.

"What?" Chiro asked sleepily.

"It's time to get up," I said. "Don't you want to go home to Nova and the others?"

Chiro's eyes flew open at the mention of our teammates. "Of course!" Chiro shouted. "They're probably worried sick!"

I smiled. I knew Chiro had ran from the others but he was sad and confused. He needed some alone time. Then he had to save me. None of the others knew that I was alive and Chiro was okay. "Then let's go," I said.

Chiro got out of bed on wobbly feet. I smiled. "What are you smiling about?" Chiro asked.

I said nothing as I walked up to him. Chiro looked nervous and I picked him up. He let out a little scream but stopped when I had put him on my back. "Hold on tight!" I warned.

His little hands gripped my shoulders and his little legs clung to my waist. He shivered and I realized I was completely metal now, no fur to keep my little boy from shivering. I was about to grab a blanket when Chiro said, "No. I'll be fine. Just have to warm up a little,"

I smiled and started to run. Chiro let out a little scream of joy that only me smile harder. Maybe I could pull off being a father as a complete robot. Maybe they would still think of me as good old Antauri.

When we reached the streets I stopped and let Chiro off my back. He looked at me and then the road. He began to back up. "Chiro what's…" I began. Then I heard the screams and the motorcycles.

I turned around. The Formless were attacking. I shivered. "Help!" someone yelled.

"We have to help!" Chiro shouted at me. "We can't let them hurt the people!" I gave him a nod of acknowledgement and we leapt into action.

"Claw Disrupter!" I yelled and destroyed ten Formless.

"Chiro Spearo!" Chiro yelled. He destroyed four Formless and I felt proud. But they kept on coming. "Antauri!" I heard Chiro shout.

"What is it Chiro?" I asked.

"That new move!" Chiro said. "We have to use that new move we've been working on!" Chiro began to glow green and I followed suit.

"Monkey Tornado!" we shouted at the same time. We grabbed each others arms and twirled around and around till we formed a huge tornado. We push the tornado away from us and it destroyed all the Formless.

"I'm dizzy," Chiro moaned. I felt vibrations from the ground but thought they were from the tornado. I stood and tried to reach him but the vibrations got stronger. Chiro went flying from the force of the vibration lifting and destroying the road.

"Chiro!" I shouted and tried to run after him but something had my tail. I turned around and saw TV Monster. I snarled.

"Give up Antauri," Skeleton King's imaged hissed. "Your Chosen One is finished and soon your brothers will be as well. Join us Antauri. We'll rule the cosmoses,"

"Never!" I shouted. "Monkey Mind Scream!" The force of my scream cause TV Monster to let go of my tail and go back into space. I heard the people cheer but I couldn't be happy. Where was Chiro?

I ran down the street where I had last saw him. I ran a yard or two and gasped. Chiro was being crushed by a piece of road. "Chiro!" I shouted.

I ran over and tried to lift the road that was crushing my son. But I couldn't. "Antauri!" I heard a voice shout.

"Nova!" I yelled. "Help me!" Nova came running over with Sprx, Otto, and Gibson by her side. Together we lifted the road and Nova quickly picked Chiro up. When they were a safe distance we dropped the road.

We heard a moan and looked over at our little boy. His eyes fluttered open. "Antauri?" Chiro asked.

"Yes Chiro?" I asked.

"Who turned out the lights?" Chiro asked.

"Very funny Kid," Sprx said.

"I'm serious Sprx!" Chiro yelled, leading to a coughing fit. "It looks like someone tied a black blindfold across my eyes and not even the sun could filter through it!"

"He's not joking Sprx," I said. "The force of the impact must have made him blind,"

"What impact?" Gibson asked. I sighed and recounted what had happened. Gibson gave Chiro a sad look and said, "We're going to take you to the hospital. They'll be able to tell us what's wrong and fix it up. Maybe you'll have to wear contacts or glasses but it'll be better then the dark,"

"Okay," Chiro said. He yawned and his eyes began to droop but he forced them back open.

"Go to sleep Chiro," I said. "It'll be better for you," Chiro tried to give me a smile but gave it to Otto instead. We all smiled as he fell asleep and we left for the hospital. But I couldn't relax. Six words floated in my mind. What if they can't fix it?
