Forgiveness Is Hard To Ask For
A/N Here's more.
I hope my reviewers enjoy and thanks for their reviews.
Moopey woke up from another dream but it hadn't been a pleasant one about Leroy. Her eyes were full of sadness but she shook those thoughts from her head. She knew some of the other experiments only saw Leroy as bad but she and Kaimi saw another side to him that the others didn't see.
"Maybe I should go visit him before going to that party.
It might put my mind at ease." she thought leaving the tree house.
She and Leroy had been living there ever since the day they'd first met but she knew that right now Leroy needed help. She could understand his feelings of anger and being misunderstood.
But Kaimi had invited her to the beach party later but she wasn't sure because all the other experiments would be there and she wasn't sure she could face them again after all these years without them being mean to her because she was different.
But she decided to not think about that as she entered the back yard of the Pelekai house and approached the Big Red Battleship but heard sounds of struggle as she entered the ship seeing Jumba trying to get Leroy to take his medication.
"What's going on?
Why is Leroy throwing a tantrum?" she thought but Jumba gasped seeing her.
"S-So you finally reveal yourself my little creation." he said but she ignored him.
"Leroy refuses to take his medicine." Jumba said as Leroy growled angrily but weakly.
Moopey had a feeling why he didn't want to take it because he was losing his powers except for his disguising power along with being indestructible and his extra arms, spines and antennae.
"Let me handle him....... okay?
I-I can help him." she said nervously as Leroy gasped at her speaking up.
Jumba was surprised by that.
"Okay.
Good luck." he said leaving them.
He had to go get ready for the party.
Kaimi was very quiet later as he was at the beach.
The party hadn't started yet but his brother was on his mind. Moopey had told him how Leroy wouldn't nearly take his medication but hearing how much she cared about him made him take it.
"Kaimi you okay?
You've been really quiet all day." Rueben told him but the red furred experiment remained quiet.
"I-I'm just worried about Leroy.
Maybe I should just go.
He needs me more but..... I feel bad for him." he said.
"Why Kai?
I know you guys get on great." he said trying to comfort his friend.
"Kaimi forgot about Leroy ever since he found Kayden and ohana.
If it wasn't for Moopey, he'd be all alone out there.
Ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten, right?
But I forgot about him.
I broke that rule!" he told him sobbing and putting his hands to his face.
The golden brown experiment felt sorry for him as he hugged him.
"Don't worry you've done nothing wrong Kai.
But maybe you should go be with him.
Who's Moopey?
You tell me she always hangs around with Leroy, right?" he told him.
Kaimi smiled weakly as he nodded.
He was beginning to calm down as they were in a cave on a far off side of the beach where they could talk.
"She's another experiment but she has no powers but doesn't know her powers.
Leroy met her a month ago after saving her from the dog catcher.
They became friends if you know what I mean.
She's the only one he listens to apart from me.
When...... he started getting sick with that virus, I begged him many times to go to Jumba but he wouldn't because he fears the ohana will hurt him or imprison him but that night when Moopey brought me to the tree house, I had to get Leroy help.
I know he's the black sheep of our family but he's still ohana and my brother so I had to help him.
I hope he's okay." Kaimi explained.
Rueben was amazed hearing this and how strong Kaimi was being for Leroy.
"Hey Kaimi let's go back to the party, okay?" he said holding out his hand.
"Ih." he replied taking it as they left.....
Moopey was nervous as Kaimi and Rueben arrived on the beach but being around them made her feel safe especially with the other experiments around but most of them were curious about her but Angel snickered seeing her.
"Why're you here?
You have no powers.
I thought you had no courage to show your face here Moopey." she told her.
Stitch growled seeing how worried Moopey was becoming but then heard Jumba gasp seeing Leroy stumble towards him but saw him sit on the sand as the other experiments were nervous as Moopey joined Leroy.
"What's he doing here?
I thought he was locked up.
Maybe Moopey freed him!" Angel said as Kaimi growled at that.
"Leroy naga being dangerous.
He ill with Quanta virus.
Moopey care about him like I do." he told them but Leroy gasped hearing Kaimi say that.
"H-How did you get here?
You were in the ship." Moopey told Leroy.
"Felt lonely and missed you.
Finished medicine." he answered as he felt her hug him.
Angel along with the other experiments were confused but Stitch understood.
He hoped Leroy would be okay but saw Moopey gasp feeling Leroy's head as a fever was slowly.
"Is it the virus getting strong again?" she asked Jumba.
"Flu this time but Jumba will help him.
You were being brave Kaimi to stand up for Leroy like that.
Why would you do that?" Jumba said as Kaimi looked at Leroy.
"It's what ohana does, right?
They love and care for each other, even stand up for them." he answered seeing Jumba leave with Leroy.
Moopey watched them go but turned invisible.
The party then went on as Moopey left but Kaimi went after her followed by Rueben.
Moopey was surprised seeing Kaimi and Rueben enter the tree house as she reappeared. They saw fear in her eyes but Kaimi understood how she was feeling but knew Angel had started that. He then saw her cry.
"W-Why're you here?" she said through tears looking away from them but Kaimi didn't blame her along with Rueben.
"We were worried about you.
After Jumba left with Leroy, you vanished and came back here.
You are ohana and a cousin after all." Kaimi answered seeing her wipe away the tears with her hand.
"Yeah, Yeah ohana's supposed to never leave you behind or foeget about you but they did.
When the other experiments found out I have no powers, they made fun of me and made me feel alone.
Until......" she said.
"Until you met Leroy, right?" Rueben asked her.
"Ih until I met Leroy.
He recued me from that human but he seemed to understand how I felt and our friendship began from there.
In my heart, it felt like we became family.
But I hope he;s okay.
He's the only friend I have in this world." she told them.
"She reminds me of myself..... before I had Gantu.
Jumba hated me because I didn't want to destroy and the other experiments didn't want me either but Gantu did and we became friends without realising it until we were stopping the Leroys." Reuben thought.
Kaimi saw the look in his friend's eyes and wondered what he was thinking.
"I know how you feel Moopy." Rueben said to her.
"Y-You do?
But how?" Moopey asked him.
"I was like you Moopey alone and being forgotten by ohana until I met Gantu.
He befriended me when Jumba called me a failed experiment and the other experiments didn't like me.
But with Gantu, I have an one true place.
If you want, we could be your friends." Rueben told her.
Moopey gasped hearing that as she turned around to face them.
"I-I'd like that.
I didn't know there was another experiment like me." she said smiling sadly.
Kaimi nodded in reply as he had an idea.
"You don't have to stay here, you know.
You could come back to the house with us.
I know Lilo and the others wouldn't mind." he told her as she nodded.
She then followed them to the Pelekai house.....
Jumba sighed as he was in the Big Red Battleship giving Leroy a flu shot which the red furred experiment hated but understood that with the Quanta virus in his system, having the flu in him would make him more worse.
But the Quanta Quaglian was nervous seeing that the Quanta virus medication was finished but needed to make more for Leroy.
"Will I be okay soon?" Leroy asked weakly.
"Ih once I make more medicine to help you." he told him.
Leroy smiled seeing Moopey and Kaimi enter the ship.
He remembered what Kaimi had done for him at the party when Angel and the other experiments were nervous seeing him but smiled.
"Thanks..... brother for defending me." he said.
"You're welcome.
It's what ohana does.
Also Moopey's going to be living here." Kaimi told him.
Moopey saw Leroy smile as he heard that as he fell asleep in dreaming......
He just hoped that Lilo and the others would let her stay.
