"Attention members of Lexicon: Alysia has returned!" Iza announced to a crowd of just about everyone on Lexicon. Becky, Iza, and Rael stood on the front steps of the Council building as everyone else stood facing them. Once the news was announced, everyone instantly cheered. Smiles were spread across the crowd instantly, infectiously appearing on each individual's face. Everybody on Lexicon had been hit hard by Becky's departure (not as hard as her parents, though), and her return meant everything to them. It meant that after their favorite rulers, Iza and Rael, decided to step down, there would be no end to an era of peace that had not existed on the planet for very, very many years. It would be continued by their wise, well-educated, caring daughter.

But their fantasy would be destroyed with one simple sentence.

"BUT," Iza continued. The word silenced everyone's cheers immediately. But? What but? How is there a but?

"I'm not staying." Becky finished. The crowd immediately broke into a chorus of "What?" and "How can this be? Why can't you stay here? Why won't you stay here?"

"I know, it's shocking news. But I want to tell you guys why, and I want you to listen without bias." Becky began. Once she saw that she had the crowd's undivided attention, she continued. "I left by accident. I feel asleep on Captain Huggyface's spaceship. But we crash landed on Earth, and there is where I grew up. I was taken in by the best family I could ever hope for on Earth. This family cared for me, raised me for fifteen years without caring where I could possibly have come from. They love me, and I love them, and I can't abandon them."

Becky paused. She could tell she hadn't won the approval of her peers just yet.

"Okay, think of it this way. I love my parents here, they're the best for accepting my situation, and letting go of their personal pain and letting go of me just to let me be happy. When I told them that not only is there a family on Earth that I can't abandon, there are dear friends that I'd missed, and a boyfriend that I'm in love with. Between all these people, there's no way I could ever leave them. I mean, imagine if you were asked to just pick up and leave your home here on Lexicon to go somewhere incredibly far away, to leave everyone you love here, to just never see them again?" Becky said. The crowd thought about her questions. But before anyone could begin to accept her leaving, someone commented.

"If you're so family-oriented, then why are you so okay with abandoning your family here? And why would you ever have left Earth to see them in the first place?" Someone asked. Becky, nervous from the comment, paused a moment before answering.

"Okay, okay, so I have a lot of explaining to do. Although I love Earth, I felt like I was missing part of my identity. Like I didn't completely know who I was. I needed to come back here and find out, and I knew that by meeting my real parents, I'd find out. And I have. I've found the missing part of myself. I feel complete now, and now that I feel this way, I realize that my place really is on Earth, with the people I love, and the people that love me. Please, I hope you all can understand." Becky explain.

The crowd responded with several sighs of disappointment. The news wasn't settling well with many, but most would go on that night to think about what Becky had told them, and would realize that they should let her go, just like their faithful, wise leaders had.

But, for one individual, that wasn't the case. But Becky wouldn't find that out until later.

~…~

The next morning, Becky woke up and decided to take a look outside to say one last goodbye to the world she had come from.

But when she tried opening her bedroom door, she quickly found out that they had a dire situation on their hands.

Becky looked over to Bob, who had been sleeping in a small bed set up in the corner of the room, and looked back to the door. The door seemed to be locked from the outside. Becky raced to the window to see if that would budge, but alas, it wouldn't.

"Uh oh…" Becky mumbled. "Bob? Bob?!"

Bob awoke, groggy and slightly grumpy, to see Becky desperately jiggling the doorknob. He squeaked at her.

"What's going on is we're stuck in here! The door is locked and the windows won't open, even with my super strength!" Becky explained, her tone sounding very panicked. Bob quickly awoke to the situation. She began pounding on the door.

"Help! Mom, dad, someone, help us!" Becky yelled in a panic. Iza and Rael quickly ran to her bedroom door.

Iza tried to open Becky's bedroom door, but quickly learned about the situation.

"Becky- open up! What's going on in there, what's wrong?" She asked.

"The door is locked, I can't open it! The windows are stuck shut! I-I can't get out!" Becky explained.

"Well, can't you punch a hole in the door, or in the wall or something? I mean, after all, you do have super strength, don't you?" Rael asked.

"Well, I can try, but I don't really want to ruin your door or wall," Becky explained.

"Don't worry about that, Becky, it's really not hard to fix. What's important is getting you out of there." Iza explained.

"Okay, back up, I'm gonna do it." Becky said. Iza and Rael stepped away from the door. Becky wound a fist back and punched the door, leaving a large, gaping hole in the door. Becky punched around that hole, making it large enough for her to fit through. She queezed herself, then Bob, through the hole and out the door.

"How did it get locked?" Iza asked.

"I don't know, I just woke up and tried to walk out of my room, and the door was locked. Something's really weird about this situation." Becky explained.

"Definitely. We for sure didn't do it, we were sleeping until just a few moments ago." Iza explained.

"How could this have happened then?" Rael asked. "Bob? Do you know anything?"

Bob squeaked a no.

"Yeah, Bob's a heavy sleeper, I had to yell at him to wake him up. I'm confident he doesn't know anything about it." Becky said.

"So who could it be?"

The three fell silent in thought. That is, until there was a noise coming from the bedroom.

Becky ripped the door off its hinges and went into the room to investigate the noise.

There, sitting in the middle of the floor, was a hologram machine, projecting a hologram of a young man, seeming to be around the same age as Becky.

"By now I bet you're wondering why you're trapped in your bedroom. You see, my name is Taver. That's right, Alysia, you don't know me. Or, at least, don't remember me. But nonetheless, I have a story for you. A story about a little girl who's birth was a symbol of the brand-new era of peace. What you Earthlings would call a 'princess', was born into this peaceful time. To ensure that this wonderful time would last for a very long time to come, the parents of this child arranged to teach their daughter be educated in the ways of being a peaceful ruler, as they were. Sound familiar yet?" The holographic boy explained. The three were confused. Who was this boy and why was he out for revenge against them?

"Yes, I'm describing your entrance into the world. Your parents arranged your whole lifestyle. They set up an educational center for you, and made sure that only children that could stimulate positive character traits, such as intelligence, kindness, caring, et cetera. That's where you met me. You don't remember me, though. We became fast friends. We were nearly inseparable. My parents saw this, and asked for your parents to agree to have us betrothed. They said no, they wanted her to make her own decisions regarding her relationships, because they knew that if she was anything like them, she would do anything for her freedom. They said it would never work out. But my parents were enraged by this. They wouldn't have it. They wanted us betrothed." He paused.

"But before anything could be done about it, you left. Abandoned us. Went to Earth. So my parents shared their anger with me when I was old enough to understand, and I agreed with them. So for fifteen years we lived here, letting our anger simmer on the back burner. But then you returned, and with your arrival, our hopes came back that we would get our way. But then you preached to all of Lexicon about how you're in love with some other guy, someone who's probably not as great as me, and definitely someone who doesn't care about you as much as I do. So what was I to do? I couldn't just lose you again. I don't give up that easily. No, I came up with a plan to keep you here forever." He explained. Becky grimaced. She didn't even remember this kid, and he had some fifteen-year-old grudge against her? What was this Taver kid's problem?

"So, you'll soon see that I have locked all the doors and windows in your house, as well as destroying your spaceship. There's no possible way you can leave now!" Taver explained. The hologram then disappeared as he cackled evilly.

"Oh great, so now I can't leave, all because some deranged kid has a crush on me! Ugh, this has so been done before…" Becky said, referring to the evil young boy that she used to scuffle with years ago.

"Oh, great, what do we do now?" Iza said angrily.

"Well, first thing's first, we need to get Bob to the spaceship so he can start repairing whatever damage was done to it. As for how we get there, I have no clue what to do. This Taver kid is probably watching out every move somehow. He's probably got everywhere we could possibly go bugged." Becky explained.

"Well, when in doubt, we like to just wing it." Rael explained. "Let's just focus on getting out of the house for now."

"Good idea…"

Yeah, so, I don't know if you can tell, but I'm basically in a bit of a writer's block regarding what to do for the rest of his story. I'm kind of making it up as I go along. But I'm formulating a plan, just like Becky and her parents! Yay :3

Well, anyways, off to those wonderful new episodes…XD
