"OK, just…just walk me through this one more time. How are we going to get the next crystal? When it's on the Mars Mission Realm?" asked Emmet.
He, Wyldstyle, Laval, Perri and Tara all piled into the helicopter from Agent Chase's Agency, with Wyldstyle and Laval in the pilot and co-pilot seats respectively; Lloyd had chosen to stay behind, to see if there was anything he could do for his Dragon, who was still suffering from whatever Anti-Builder had done to his dragon.
Wyldstyle rolled her eyes slightly, before she handed total control over to Laval as she turned around on her chair to face Emmet, who was sitting on the chair closest to the cockpit.
"Alright, I'll explain it one more time," said Wyldstyle.
"We're going back to Bricksburg, where we are going to go to a section of it that only Business knew of, since he didn't want you to think that you could go into, which is the Space Engineer Section. We're going to, um…'borrow' a space ship from them, and head into the Mars Mission Realm."
"OK…wait, we want a spaceship? Then why don't we ask Benny to meet us somewhere? I'm sure he won't mind building us a spaceship," said Emmet, not understanding why they didn't do this in the first place.
Wyldstyle sighed softly, glancing slightly at Laval; seeing that he was still occupied with making sure they were still on course. She looked around all of the helicopter; Perri and Zeon were sitting opposite one another, talking among themselves. Obviously, they only trusted one another, seeing as the others hadn't exactly.
Tara was sitting by herself, nursing her wounded wing stump that Anti-Builder had left with her; she had found the medical supplies in the helicopter, and was currently trying to wrap her injures up until she could find something to heal herself fully.
"Well…we haven't had contact with Benny for a while. He just…seemed to leave, head back to his Realm. Back with the other Astronauts. He haven't heard from him since; it's like…he's been off the grid."
Emmet frowned slightly, looking aside slightly; true, he hadn't had contact with Benny for a couple of years now, but…he always assumed that they were all still close friends. Then again…maybe people changed with the times.
After another few minutes of flying, they finally burst from the dark Realm and appeared in the skies above the South side of Bricksburg, heading towards the city as Laval and, now Wyldstyle, headed nearer to Bricksburg, as they headed towards the section of the city that Emmet hadn't been before.
As they hovered over the taller buildings of Bricksburg, Emmet got up from his seat to see what they were heading towards, and could help from having the reaction that he had.
"Wow…"
Before them, there was a spaceship launch pad, complete with all of the stuff you would expect to find at a launch pad; such as control tower and the weird, scaffolding stuff that went up the side. Emmet didn't know what they were called, so that was the only thing he called them; they looked a little like the scaffolding he used and had seen around the construction site before, but couldn't be sure if it still called that.
"Alright, here we go," said Wyldstyle, taking in a deep breath before she slowly moved the control lever for the helicopter forward, moving the helicopter forward as they neared the space station. She turned her head slightly to see Emmet out of the corner of one eye and said, "Check to see if you can find any uniforms in the storage boxes over there," as she gestured in the general direction of several storage units of the helicopter.
Emmet turned around to look at the storage units and headed over to them, opening the first one he came across and began sifting through it.
After flinging a few rifles out across the ground and somehow coming across several other uniforms from different worlds, like a cowboy hat and ninja head wrap, Emmet pulled out several Agent uniforms that Chase had worn before the time he started wearing his suits.
"Found some," he said, taking the one he had out and taking out several others that he found under that uniform, and began handing them out to the others.
Perri and Zeon both took a uniform before they glanced at one another, before they looked at Emmet and Perri said, "You really expect us to wear this? I mean, c'mon; look at this! It's got no style!"
"If we're going to get that spaceship, you're going to have to wear that uniform," said Wyldstyle, before she grabbed one of the uniforms, leaving the helicopter in the control of Laval for the rest of the journey, after she gestured to the Lion King where they needed to land, before disappearing to get changed.
Perri rolled her eyes a little, before she gathered what she had to wear and disappeared down into another section of the helicopter, away from the others.
"What exactly are we going to do with that strange thing?" asked Laval, still piloting the helicopter towards the helicopter pad on the space station site.
"We need that to get to the realm that the other crystal is located," said Zeon, slipping the top half of the Agent jumpsuit on and adjusting it; he glanced at the nametag, before quickly slipping it off and throwing it aside. Emmet managed to get into the jumpsuit.
Laval slowly manoeuvred the helicopter over the helipad, before a voice came through the radio.
"Agent 8971, you do not have permission to land. Please state clearance ID," said the man on the other side of the radio.
Laval blinked slowly, before he turned around to look at Emmet and Perri, all three of them able to hear what had just been said; Laval didn't know what to say.
"Uh…" said Laval, desperately trying to think of something to say that would sound convincing.
After a few seconds of radio silence, the radio repeated, "Agent Helicopter 8971, you do not have clearance to land. If you do not reply in the next two minutes, we will be forced to shoot you down."
"Shoot us down?!" exclaimed Emmet, quickly rushing to the pilot seat and taking a seat, quickly taking a head set and setting it on his head.
"Uh, hi, I'm uh…Agent Brickowski….and, uh…we need to…borrow one of your space ship for…uh, reasons?" said Emmet, grimacing at how he must have sounded; he side glanced at Laval, and Zeon as the Master Builder leaned between the two seats, hoping that he had sounded convincing.
A few seconds of silence followed Emmet's response, and he feared that they weren't going to get the space ship. But a few seconds later, the reply came.
"And what do you need the use of the space shuttle for?" asked the man at the space station, his voice sounding almost bored; like he was tired of what was currently happening.
"Uh…" said Emmet, trying to stall for time as he glanced at the other two; Laval simply shrugged with a desperate look, while Zeon scratched the back of his head while trying to think of something.
Wyldstyle re-appeared again, this time dressed in an Agent jumpsuit, with her hair the same style, and glanced at the helicopter cockpit. After seeing the state of what Emmet's face was in, and the panicked expressions on the other two male's faces, she quickly deduced that something was up.
"What happened now?" asked Wyldstyle, quickly approaching the cockpit as the others explained the situations that they had managed to get into.
After facing palming and grumbling a little under her breath, Wyldstyle said, "Alright; leave this to me."
Grabbing the head set from Emmet, Wyldstyle put them over her own head and said, "Uh, hi…Agent ID: WLDSTYL3. Requesting clearance to land and requesting usage of space shuttle."
After a few seconds of static, the man on the other side of the radio replied, "Alright, Agent WLDSTYL3; clearance granted."
With a satisfied smile, Wyldstyle turned to look at the others; Emmet, Laval and Zeon were all looking back at Wyldstyle, all of them wearing expressions of shock.
"What?" asked Wyldstyle casually, before she adjusted the controls and lowered the helicopter onto the landing pad, the whine of the helicopter blade overhead slowly down as Wyldstyle switched the engine off.
While the other two were still amazed at how Wyldstyle had managed to do what she had done, Laval got up and said, "Well, I guess I'd better go get into one of those…uniforms, is it?"
"Sorry Laval…you can't wear a uniform for what we've got in mind," said Wyldstyle, before she approached one of the storage boxes that Emmet hadn't opened, and pulled out what appeared to be a futuristic-looking rifle, with a blue canister attached above it, giving the rifle what appeared to be a blue-energy filled ammunition.
Turning around, she aimed the rifle at Laval, pulling the trigger. A blue pulse fired from the gun, hitting Laval and covering him in a light blue for a second. When the blue pulse had died down, Laval was slumped over the chair, not moving.
