The three of them turned sharply at the sound of the new voice, Laval quickly pulling out his Fire Valious as per natural instincts, as they faced the source of the voice.
Standing behind them were two figures; one of them, the larger one, was the stranger of the two.
His skin was a light purple in colour, with his arms rather muscular. He wore a yellow, sleeveless jumpsuit with sand green Pauldrons and Vambraces of the same colour. The sand green Pauldrons continued across the top part of his chest, leaving a sort of upper chest piece of armour. He had a thick, sand green belt.
Though the most defiant feature was his face; a thick goatee complete with sideburns, and his eyes were a blindly bright acid green. His short, pointed purple ears were on the sides of his head, not sticking out enough to be comical. A large grey blaster stock stuck out from behind his right shoulder.
The other person, who appeared to be the one that had spoken, was more on the human side; he had slightly tanned skin with a goatee, and smoothed back black hair. He wore a light green jacket, while, covering his right arm and right shoulder, there was a dark green Paludron and Vambrace. He wore grey trousers with a gun holster on his right leg.
"The 'Ghost'? Is that what this ship is called?" asked Emmet, trying to calm the tension that he felt coming off of Laval.
The human of the two in front of them slowly nodded, taking a slight step forward, while gesturing for the purple skin one to stay back while he dealt with this.
"I think some introductions are going to be needed," he said calmly, before Emmet heard movement behind him; he and Wyldstyle turned around-Laval was too uneasy to take his eyes off the purple skinned, muscular figure-to see Sabine and Chopper, alongside Perri and Zeon; Perri lightly resting her hand on Chopper's dome.
"My name's Kanan Jarrus," said the figure, putting a hand to his chest, signifying that he was speaking about himself, before he gestured to the purple skinned figure and said, "And the big guy over there's Garazeb, but you can call him Zeb; he's the muscle."
Zeb grunted lowly in response, his arms slowly folding in front of his chest as Kanan introduced the two of them to the three.
"Well, I'm Emmet, this is Wyldstyle, and this here is Laval," said Emmet, introducing the three of them, as he thought that Perri and Zeon had already been introduced to the rest of the crew on board the Ghost.
"Your friends have been explaining that you need to go to Mars; and we're more than willing to take you the rest of the way there. We know a couple of guys on Mars that can help you," offered Kanan, a friendly smile on his face as he gestured for the three newest additions to the ship to follow him, as he began walking down the corridor; down the way he came.
Zeb glared at the newest additions to the ship, before he turned and headed after Kanan; Laval had growled a little under his breath when Zeb had turned to glare at them over his shoulder.
Emmet and Wyldstyle followed after the two, before Laval glanced back; after rolling an eye at Perri lightly patting Chopper's dome, the small Astromech letting out a few grumbles and flicked the miniature robot arms on the sides of his dome, Laval followed after Emmet and Wyldstyle.
"So, why exactly was your ship blown up in the first place?" asked Kanan, trying to start up conversation with the newest, temporary additions to their team.
Emmet and Wyldstyle looked at one another, before Emmet softly said to her, "I'll explain."
Wyldstyle nodding, thinking Emmet would be best to explain it.
Turning around to look at Kanan, Emmet took a deep breath and began explaining the situation.
"Well…we're kinda trying to stop a massive threat to all of the Realms; which may include your one, and any others we haven't come across yet. You see, there are these three beings of a ton of power called the Oblivion Trinity. We're trying to collect these three crystals before this really evil guy finds them and releases them onto the worlds."
Kanan paused walking for a few seconds, before he turned around to look at Emmet when he had finished explaining the situation to him.
Sabine and Zeb were also listening in on what was going on, and also stopped in their tracks as the others did. Chopper only stopped when he bumped into Perri's leg, grumbling in annoyance as a result.
"Looks like you guys are in a really problem," said Kanan, folding his arms slowly over his chest as he looked at Emmet and Wyldstyle.
"Yeah…and the odds aren't exactly in our favour at the minute. I mean, we've already lost one of the three crystals we need to find to get the Trinity under control, and we've lost the thing that has control over them," explained Wyldstyle.
"What do you mean by lost?" asked Sabine, stepping forward and walked to the side of Emmet.
Emmet turned to look at Sabine as she asked this, before he said, "Well, this bad guy were fighting against has them."
"And who is this bad guy? Are you trying to build suspense kid? Because that's a one way ticket to getting your head kicked in," grunted Zeb, glaring at Emmet in annoyance.
Emmet glanced at the others he had grown close to recently, all of whom looked a bit comfortable with the turn of questions that had been asked. But he turned to look at Zeb and Kanan, and sighed a little before he said the two words he hated saying.
"H…His name…name's….Anti-Builder."
Instead of getting shocked and alarmed looks, the only looks he got from Sabine, Zeb and Kanan were confused looks with raised eyebrows.
"What? What kind of name is that? Kinda stupid to me," said Zeb, folding his arms in annoyance. "You're really bad at building up suspense, kid."
"Seriously, Emmet, what kind of name is that? He doesn't sound like much of a threat," said Sabine, putting her hands on her hips again; her helmet wasn't around her anymore, so she must have put it somewhere.
Emmet turned to look at Sabine and glanced sideways at Wyldstyle, who gave him the same look before they both turned to face Sabine again. Laval even turned back to look at Sabine when he heard her words; a glare and growl to him as he turned.
"He's a monster. Nothing more, nothing less," said Laval, approaching Sabine, a tint of a growl to his face as he did so; it was enough for Chopper to beep grumpily and warningly, sparking an electric arc between his two arms. Perri put a hand on his dome, as though telling him that Laval wasn't going to harm him.
"He nearly destroyed the Realms," added Wyldstyle.
"He inadvertently killed my father!" said Laval.
Kanan noticed that Emmet had suddenly gone quiet when Wyldstyle and Laval started shouting actions that Anti-Builder had done, and approached him slowly from behind. Putting his hand gently on Emmet's shoulder, tapping the construction worker slightly.
"Emmet, you've gone quiet all of a sudden. Care to say something?" asked Kanan, raising an eyebrow slowly; his friendly personality had gone at this point, and replaced at this point with a more serious tone.
Emmet shifted away from Kanan's hand slightly, rubbing his arm quietly; Laval and Wyldstyle had gone silent after they saw Emmet had gone silent as well.
"Look…can you just take us to Mars and we'll be out of your hair before you know it," said Emmet, looking at Kanan; a bit of desperation behind his voice.
"Not until you give us an answer kid," warned Zeb, slowly lifting an arm up, as though to reach for his double-blaster ended weapon.
Emmet, though he was looking down, saw Zeb's subtle movements. When he saw that the alien was reaching for his weapon, he acted.
Without any sort of warning, Emmet collected a few pieces of bricks that made up either wall on each side of him of the Ghost, and began assembling what idea had come to mind.
"Ahh!" he suddenly shouted, falling to the ground in pain; the bricks he had been trying to assemble falling apart, lying useless on the floor.
"Emmet!" exclaimed Wyldstyle, rushing forward to aid her pained boyfriend; Laval quickly breaking rank to assist Emmet as well.
The two of them carefully got Emmet back to his feet again, as he slowly rubbed his head; still grunting a little in pain. He then looked at his wrist of the hand he was rubbing his head with, and muttered, "What the…?"
Wyldstyle and Laval looked at his wrist, and were both alarmed and confused by what they saw; the wrist watch-like device that had been fitted to them back at the Agency was flashing a dark red for a second afterwards, before it seemed to turn off.
Emmet shook his head and lowered his arm again, looking up at Kanan.
"Please…" said Emmet, his voice no longer desperate; more…appealing.
"We need to get to Mars…"
Kanan looked back at Zeb, before he turned back to look at Sabine. The Mandalorian, in turn, looked down at Chopper, who grumble-beeped in response.
"Alright…we'll get you to where you need to go," said Kanan after a few seconds, before he added, "I'll go tell our pilot."
And with that, Kanan headed back towards the way he came, with Zeb following after him; throwing a look over his shoulder at the Chimaian, before following after Kanan.
Sabine, on the other hand, looked down at Chopper and said, "I think we best get going," as she turned on the balls of her feet, and headed off. After a few electronic grumbles, Chopper turned around and drove off after Sabine.
They went around a corner, and Sabine's voice rang out, "Chopper! You can't call them that!"
Emmet turned to look at Laval and Wyldstyle, before Perri and Zeon approached them. The five of them looked at one another, before the other four turned their eyes on Emmet.
The construction worker then turned his gaze down to his wrist, and asked to himself, "What's going on?"
Holy Hell, when did it get so HOT in England?! Seriously, I had to take breaks from writing this chapter because the sun goes directly into my room at evening time! :(
Anyway, let's get to the Replying to the Reviewer part of this :)
Guest - Thanks, glad you like it :)
Blaze Darkrunner - I think you've found out if you come this far XD
Just-A-Passer-By-Named-Fourth - Well, I've got a few ideas...since they're in space for the time being, I can think of an idea.
Just a side note, I am still accepting ideas for LEGO themes to include, and specific types of OC's. Don't worry, if I've mentioned your OC and haven't for a while, they are coming back. Don't worry.
Like, they have to be of themes, like Chima.
Anyway, that's all for now. Nf991 signing out.
