This one's kinda boring, not gonna lie...
"Who the hellis that grabbing Karolina?" Trini asked as she pointed at the green alien with his arm wrapped around Karolina while she was in mid-air. The four of them-Jake, Trini, Molly, and Victor-had just left the store when Trini sensed Karolina and Nico's heart race. And when they got to the spot where she sensed their heartbeats, they spotted where they were now: watching an Alien have his outstretched arm wrapped around Karolina.
"Put her down!" Victor ordered. The alien turned slightly. "Yeah, I'm talking to youMr. Less-Than-Fantastic!"
"Alright, from now on, you're not allowed to make anymore puns for the rest of your life." Trini informed.
"Seriously, you're stretching more than he is." Molly crossed her arms.
"Thanksfor the support, guys." Victor rolled his eyes.
The alien released Karolina and faced Victor. "That voice, you're an android." He stated. "You exist on our planet to cook and clean, not to crackwise."
"Pffft. Like hecooks." Jake jumped forward. "But I'll definitely clean you!"
"Jake! Watch out with my cereal!" Molly warned.
He swung to punch at the alien, only for it to pull off a force field. The field caused his fist to ricochet back and hit himself in the chest.
"Smooth." Trini nodded.
"What the hellare you?" Jake growled.
"A Skrull." Answered the alien. "And you're a vampire. Which means..." His hands protruded flames; Jake quickly jumped back.
"Dammit..."
"Someone's fighting skills are getting rusty." Molly commented.
"I got this," Victor extended his hand; letting electricity shoot out once more; aiming at the Skrull. Unfortunately, it did nothing due to the force field that the Skrull pulled up.
"Did you really think that someone as primitive as you could keep me away from my Betrothed?" He then used the force field to pull both Jake and victor up in the air. "I've defeated manymonsters during my trials, you relics." He then dropped the force field; causing the boy to fall on top of each other-the cereal going everywhere.
"Oh, that's great." Trini through her hands up in the air. "38.00 down the drain!"
"Cereal..." Molly frowned she then growled and raced up to the alien. "I'm so sickof you bad guys!" She swung her foot and kicked the alien in the nuts. "Just leaveus alone!"
The Skrull trembled, but kept his stand. "Little one...That was..." He pulled his fist back; his hand transforming into what looked like The Thing's hand. "Unwise."
He swung and punched Molly into a bench; breaking it to pieces.
"Molly!" Trini cried. "You son of a-!" But Trini didn't finish. Out of her mouth came a Banshee's cry loud enough to blow someone's head off. Trini couldn't control it and tried to close her mouth, but to no avail; the cry was too powerful.
"Silence!" The Skrull moved his hand forward and created a force Field around Trini's head. The sounds bounced off of the force Field and caused Trini to pass out. "Please stop!" Karolina begged. "These are my friends!"
"Friends?" The Skrull blinked. "You mean, you actually-."
The bay door to the Frogger slammed down on The Skrull's head and knocked him unconscious.
"Ribbit." Gert called.
"Alright, Ramblers! Let's start Ramblin'! We've got po-po comin' in!" Chase shouted.
Victor quickly picked Trini up, Karolina grabbed Nico, and Jake grabbed Molly and ran into the Frogger.
"Who isthat fool, Karolina? One of Swarm'sgoons?" Gert asked.
"No, Gert. He's an extraterrestrial. Like me. He's saying we're engaged." Karolina explained.
"Uck, marriage." Jake stuck his tongue out.
"You've been married before?" Victor asked.
"Twice." Jake nodded. "Bothcheated on me."
"Harsh." Victor frowned.
"So Karolina has to marrythe Homeboy from Outer Space?" Chase questioned.
"She doesn't haveto do anything, Captain Enlightenment...She just-."
"DangerDanger." A voice called.
"The Leapfrog can talk?" Jake looked up."
"Be advised,pursuing ship has us on missile lock." The Frogger spoke up.
"I can't believe you can talk." Chase smiled.
"In roughly five languages,Master." The Frogger spoke up.
"Master? Sweet." Chase praised.
"Did you forget about the missilepart?" Gert snapped.
"Standby,enemy craft is opening a hailing frequency." The Frogger warned.
"Your ship's cloaking is useless against my scanning,Karolina."The Skrull warned. "Set your ship down or I'll blow it andyou out of the sky." He warned.
"He's bluffing." Victor tested. "He won't blow his fiancée out of the sky."
"He's not bluffing, Vic." Trini said as she grabbed his sleeve.
BOOM
The whole ship rocked to the side; causing everyone to fall to one side of the ship.
"Told you." Trini growled. "Skrull's neverlie about threats."
"That was a warning shot.The next one won't be."The Skrull stated. "Please,Karolina,I just want to talk to you."
"I'm here, Dammit! Talk!" Karolina snapped.
"No, face to face." He groaned. "Meet me at the roof top of the cylindrical structure near Hollywood and Vine."
"I say we blow him out of the sky." Jake growled.
"Can't, Einstein ripped the lazers out, remember?" Trini cocked a brow.
"Well, maybe we should hear him out." Karolina suggested.
"No! No way! We don't negotiate!" Nico protested.
"Leave me if you must, my Love," The Skrull started. "but do, and everyone on this planet will die."
"Well, there goes that plan." Victor commented.
The group exited the ship. The alien-who Karolina said was named Xavin-walked off of his ship as well.
"Karolina," He started. "Can't...can't we have a moment alone?"
"Whatever you have to say to me, you can say in front of my friends." Karolina stated.
"And feel free to turn all green and scaly. But I'm warning you right now, that routine doesn't really scareus." Gert warned, Old Lace growled.
"First of all," Xavin started. "I apologize for my...outburst. Your customs are still unfamiliar to me."
"You're from a Skrull empire." Trini stepped forward.
"Yes," He nodded. "Fifteen years ago, my father, De'zean lead an invasion to Earth. He was stopped by your parents, Karolina."
"My parents? How?" Karolina asked as she stepped forward.
"In exchange for not entering Earth, they gave the coordinates to something even morevaluable."
"And that was?" Victor cocked a brow.
"Majesdane,your parents' birthplace that they were exiledfrom due to their criminal activity." Xavin explained. "Father had been looking to plunderthat mystical world for decades. And your parents divulged that it was hidden underneath a WhiteDwarf."
"My parents lived on a star?"
"That's pretty badass." Jake whispered.
"As assurance that the coordinates that Frank and Leslie Dean were real, they offered their only child's hand in marriage to me." Xavin finished.
"He's lying." Karolina shook her head. "Is he?" She turned to Trini.
"He's telling the truth, K. I've been reading his mind for a while now. Everything he's said, it's the truth." Trini fiddled with her fingers.
"And now you're here to collectyour folk's sick agreement?" Nico snapped.
"My folksare dead." Xavin answered. "They died in a war that's going on between Tranax VII and Majesdane for the past fifteen years."
"Oh," Jake piped. "So, if Trini here says that your telling the truth and that your father-who wasa general-died in battle, doesn't that mean that you'rein charge now?"
"Yeah, so can't youend the war?" Nico questioned.
"I could surrender the imperial Skrull Army, but there is no telling what the Majesdane's would do once we lay down our weapons." Xavin stated.
"No offense," Victor pointed at Xavin. "But you guys attacked them first. Why should we care if Karolina's peeps wipe out your evil empire?"
"Because," Trini intervened as she crossed her arms. "If they do that, they'll attack earth in retaliation for startingthe war in the first place."
"She is correct."
"That's insane!" Karolina exclaimed.
"Indeed, this mindless war between is between adults, and as a child who has grown up in bloodshed, I wish to have this war ended." Xavin explained. "By returning home with you as my Majesdanian Bride, it is my hope that we can uniteout people together and bring peaceto our quadrant."
Nico turned to Trini. "He's lying, isn't he?"
"Hun, this kid is the most honest than all of us put together." Trini answered. "He's trying to end a war that's been going on for fifteenyears already."
"Yes, and I implore you, Magnificent One…" Xavin dropped to one knee. "Willyoumarryme?"
"Does that mean Karolina's gonna be a Princess?" Molly asked hopefully.
"No, it means she's gonna be a slave." Nico corrected. "This is stupid,K. Can't you see he's just using you as a humanshield? He knows your people won't darehurt one another."
"Nico," Trini growled as she grabbed her arm. "You're not helping the situation."
"Look, Xavin, I believe you. But I can'tmarry you." Karolina held a hand up. "Because…I like girls."
"Huh? What?" Chase blinked.
"Called it!" Trini cheered. "In your face, Chase!"
"Is that allthat's stopping you?" Xavin asked as he began to transform. "Karolina, Skrulls are Shapeshifters, changing gender is as simple-." He completely transformed in to a black teenager with long wavy brown hair. "-as changing our haircolor."
"I wonder if I can do that…" Trini tapped her chin.
Karolina blushed and blinked. "Oh."
Xavin walked up to Karolina and grabbed her hand. "You don't have to say yes yet. But at least take a trip with me." Xavin's voice was soft and caring. "Let me take you home."
Karolina looked down and thought about it for a while. Nico narrowed her eyes; hoping Karolina would say the words she wanted to hear. Instead, they came out the complete opposite.
"Okay," She answered.
"What? Karolina, no!" Nico protested.
"Nico, I have to do this. People are dying." Karolina begged.
"That's not yourfault." Nico shouted.
"No, it's my momand dad's fault. And I thought the whole point of our group is so we can right our parents' wrongs." Karolina clasped her hands together. "Please don't make this harder than it has to be."
"Goodbye, Molly. Be strong for the guys, 'Kay?" Karolina patted Molly's head.
"Will you send us postcards?" Molly asked softly.
Xavin pointed at the top of the building, where large antennae stood. "It receives transmissions, so yes."
"Look after Gert, Old Lace." Karolina rubbed Old Lace's head. "Don't let Chase take her for granted."
"You know, when we first met, I thought you were a spoiled hippie chick." Gert stated. "It was one of the two times in my life when I was wrong."
"You're serious about this? You're really gay?" Chase asked in shock.
"I'm gonna miss you, too, Trini." Karolina hugged her. "Just stop breaking Jake's heart." She whispered in Trini's ear.
Trini pulled back and glared at her.
"Be good!" Karolina patted her head again and moved to Victor. "So long, Victor. Sorry I didn't get to know you better."
"Yeah, well thanks for making me feel like I'm not the weirdestthing in the universe." He shook her hand. "And tell your significant other to be good to his/her 'bot's, cool?"
She looked at Jake.
"I would hug you, but you're all lit up." Jake admitted. "So, air hug?" He opened his arms a good foot away from her.
She did the same with a giggle.
"Nico," She said as she turned to her.
"I'm notsaying goodbye to you." Nico turned around and crossed her arms. "You're only leaving because I didn't-."
"Shhh." She grabbed Nico's hand and placed something in her palm. "Here something to remember me by."
"Your bracelet?" Nico inquired. "But that's how you control you powers!"
"No, it's how I hidemy powers." Karolina corrected. "But where I'm going, I'll never have to do that ever again." She frowned. "I can stop pretending I'm something I'm not."
She then walked off, but not before turning back and waving. She then walked into the ship and looked back as they flew off into the sky.
Nico suddenly grabbed Trini. "Go after it!"
"What?" Trini gasped.
"You're the only one of us who can fly! Go and shoot it down! GO and get Karolina back!"
"Nico, she made her decision! If we don't let her make her own, than we're not better than our-."
"Look!" Victor interrupted Trini as he pointed at the antenna. "The tower, it's flashing."
And it was, a red dot on the top.
"What's it saying, Frog?" Chase turned to the Frogger.
"Please….don'tbesad…STOP….Iloveyouallvery….much….stop…keeprunning….
STOP."
