Part of An Ohana

Kiri was worried watching Jumba clean Gantu's wounds but wondered what had happened to her husband but Jumba had a feeling Raditz had been behind this but the Quanta Quaglian was still tired as Lilo had woken him at midnight telling him Rueben was still worse but told him about finding Gantu lying in the drive way hurt and cold but was very scared for what was happening to some of his Earth ohana.

"Jumba something is going on.

I can feel it but do you know what's going on?

I want to know what happened to him." she said with fear in her eyes.

"Ih something is going on Kiri but you can't tell anybody else yet.

Raditz, the leader of EGO has escaped from space prison and wants revenge on me and the others for stopping him but that along with 625 is seriously worrying me along with this.

Jumba not sure what he should do." he explained sadly as she saw Reuben lying asleep moaning along with tossing and turning in the fold down bed.

But Jumba heard Pleakley scream and ran into the kitchen.

The Quanta Quaglian gasped in fear seeing Raditz holding a blaster to the Plorgian.

"No I won't let him hurt my Little One Eyed One!" he thought trembling.

"I see you're scared Jumba.

Good!

I want vengeance on you alone so meet me in the forest at noon unless you want your friend here to suffer but you don't want that, right?" Raditz said as Jumba nodded.

"Good!" he said letting Pleakley go.

The Plorgian saw Jumba fall to his knees sobbing softly.

He then hugged him but also rubbing his back to soothe him.

"What're you going to do Jumba?

You can't face that monster alone!" Pleakley told him.

"Jumba has no choice my friend if ohana is to survive." he answered sadly as he and Pleakley went into the living room.


Lilo and the others including Clyde noticed Jumba was very quiet that evening but the Quanta Quaglian had told Pleakley not to tell the others because he was fighting Raditz to protect them but knew they would intervene if they knew what was happening at noon the next day but he had been worried about Rueben since he wasn't well but just had a fever for now but hoped it was nothing serious but had a feeling Raditz had done something to Gantu with a personality adjusting device seeing that the Captain didn't want to use blasters but deeply concerned for Rueben than ever before but he would take care of Raditz tomorrow but he was more muscle since he'd been training but hoped he could stop Raditz.

"Jumba is everything okay?" Lori asked as the former evil genius looked at the young experiment.

"Ih Jumba fine." he answered her.

But Lilo wasn't sure and had a feeling Jumba was hiding something from them and was worried because Pleakley was also very quiet and that wasn't normal for the Plorgian.

She hoped things would be okay......


Later that night in their room, Pleakley couldn't sleep.

He had thoughts of Jumba possibly getting hurt by Raditz during their little fight and couldn't sleep but climbed up the ladder to Jumba's bunk but the Quanta Quaglian wasn't sleeping well either but smiled seeing Pleakley lying beside him.

"Couldn't sleep huh?

Jumba know how that feels.

Little One Eyed One cry for Jumba?" he said seeing the red rims around the Plorgian's eye.

He nodded.

"Yes I was.

I'm afraid........ that Raditz will play dirty and hurt you badly and that's something I don't want to happen to you.

I care about you too much to have something bad to happen to you.

Unlike your creations, you're not indestructable." Pleakley said feeling Jumba hug him.

The Plorgian was stunned but blushed.

That weird but good feeling returned again to his stomach.

It was always there whenever he was with Jumba but ignored it when the others were around.

He felt sleepy as well as Jumba as both their eyes closed.......


It was morning but as Pleakley woke up but noticed that Jumba was gone but filled his body with great dread and fear.

"He must've gone to fight Raditz." he thought as he climbed down the ladder and onto the ground but ran out of the room and out of the house.

Lilo wondered what was going on but didn't know because Jumba hadn't mentioned a word to them but he hoped Jumba was okay as he ran towards the forest hoping they hadn't started yet but heard the sounds of a battle in the middle of the forest as he went to there.

"Don't let me be too late." he told himself.


Raditz smiled seeing Jumba show up but was mildly wounded as the battle began.

"So you decided to show your face huh Jukiba?

You're going to pay for what you did to EGO." he said as they began fighting as well as using blasters but Pleakley was scared watching Jumba fighting Raditz but hoped he'd be okay as Jumba seemed to be handling Raditz's moves but was hurt by a blaster shot on his shoulder as the fight went on.

But Jumba got to his feet.

"Sorry to disappoint you but I'm stopping you." Jumba yelled as his face was covered in various wounds.

"We'll see about that Jukiba." Raditz said as they kept on but then as Raditz was about to play dirty, he was hit by a blaster as Jumba was nearly out of energy.

"Gantu?

But I thought I changed you into a loser." he said as Jumba smiled.

"The ohana changed me back." he answered as he finished Raditz off and put him in shackles......

Pleakley came out of hiding and ran to Jumba.

"Jumba are you okay?" he asked him.

"I'll..... be fine ..... Pleakley." he answered as his eyes closed......

Gantu then picked Jumba up carefully and they went back to the house.......
