HEY GUYS! Here comes another chapter! We're finally out of the vampire world and into another adventurous universe. This will also be temporarly discontinued for a while. Now, I'm not gonna put 'complete', because this may continue, so please keep your alerts up! Review please!

Henry's POV

We all found ourselves in another universe. I noticed Jack came along, which was pretty cool! I also noticed I was back in my hometown universe where my friends found me. I gasped when I realized the location we were at, Dr. Hunter's lab. I was right in front of him and I could feel the heat burning in me. I could feel the rage of wanting revenge building up inside me.

I was about to pounce on him before feeling two people pull me back, so I wouldn't attack.

"DR. HUNTER, I'M GONNA KILL YA!" I shouted with rage.

"What in the world?" Mr. Peterson responded.

"How did you escape from prison?" Normal Emily asked.

"That was easy, I just found an escape plan and used it," Dr. Hunter smirked.

"Remind me again why I'm working for you again?" Mr. Peterson asked with an annoyed look.

"I promised I would pay you 100 dollars an hour."

"Oh yeah!"

"You're gonna find your butt back in jail as soon as I finish with you!" I shouted with intense emotion.

"You're sure a hotheaded, little man," Dr. Hunter smirked mockingly.

"I AM NOT LITTLE AND I'M NOT THAT WHIMPY LITTLE EIGHT-YEAR-OLD YOU ONCE PICKED ON ANYMORE!"

Dr. Hunter looked at me with confusion, probably because it had been six years since we last saw each other. Judging by his age, I don't think it had been that long in his time. I had probably been gone for at least several months or a year in this universe. Seeing me as a teenager is probably more shocking to the doctor than finding out that a guy can get pregnant... yeah, I'm not gonna go there.

I glared at Dr. Hunter with pure hatred as he examined me closely. He pushed by bangs back, which I was tempted to punch his face off for ever touching me. A small gasp escaped from his mouth.

"Henry Bigg?" Dr. Hunter gasped. "IMPOSSIBLE! You should be at least nine, not 14!"

"Wait, how does he know that Henry's 14? I mean he could be 10 for all he knows!" Normal Jared wondered.

"I think it's always like that with cartoons. Everyone knows how old curtain kids are, even if they could be 20 or 30 years old," Normal Emily replied.

"No matter! I won't let any of you foil my plans! You all are now my hostages!" Dr. Hunter smirked evilly. Seriously?

"Uh... dude. There's a few problems with that. For one, we have cell phones and could probably call the police on you again, like last time. Two, we have a couple of ripped guys that could probably beat the crud outta you and won't hesitate to do so. Three, we have weapons that could kill you in a heartbeat. Four, you're outnumbered, seven against two, with two extra little ones that could escape through a mouse hole. Not to mention Jaden could summon out monsters and... DO I REALLY NEED TO EXPLAIN MORE?" Mad Scientist Jared pointed out before we all began staring at him. "What?"

"Did you just say something sane and logical?" Princess Emily asked.

"You're not the only one with weapons," Dr. Hunter smirked before I felt a bold of electricity jolting through my body. It was painful and I could hear myself screaming bloody murder until I finally passed out. I hope Tom and Lucy got out alive. I don't want anything bad to happen to them!

I woke up tied up with my friends in chains. Dang, I guess Dr. Hunter really upgraded himself! I noticed my other friends waking up, including Jack. I was glad he made it out okay. I could hear my friends moaning from waking up. We had to figure out a way to escape and stop Dr. Hunter, AGAIN! Just your normal life of Henry Bigg. Woopie.

"Guess Dr. Hunter really upgraded himself," Normal Jared concluded.

"Well, it has been at least a year in this universe compared to ours," Jaden said.

"We've advanced too and we're gonna get out of here!" I promised my friends with determination.

"You got that right, Henry!" I heard Tom say before him and Lucy got out their laser swords to cut through the chains.

"I knew you guys escaped!" I said happily. Tom and Lucy broke through the chains and we were able to untie ourselves. "Now, to figure out a plan."

"We're gonna have to split. Some of us can go to the police station to get the police to get Dr. Hunter again," Princess Emily explained.

"Dr. Hunter's mine! I've got some unfinished business with him," I said with crossed arms.

"I'll come with you!" Jack said as I replied to him with a smirk.

"We'll help too!" Tom promised.

"Thanks guys," I thanked my friends.

"We'll also have to contact your folks and tell them where you are," Normal Emily said.

"I can go to the police station!" Mad Scientist Jared smirked madly.

"Great," Normal Emily replied with sarcasm.

"I'll make sure he doesn't make a scene or get himself arrested," Jaden volunteered.

"I'll go too!" Princess Emily volunteered.

"The rest of us can go to the Bigg's house," Normal Jared finished.

"Then let's move! And Henry, be careful!" Normal Emily warned me.

"I've got this!" I promised.

My friends went to do their job while Jack, Tom, Lucy, and I went out to search for Dr. Hunter, wherever he was. I wasn't going to let him get away from me without a fight!

Normal Emily's POV

We managed to escape from Dr. Hunter's place and I took a taxi to the Bigg's house. I didn't want to jack another car and I didn't think my brother would be comfortable with my driving. We had to get to get to the Bigg's house and let them know that Henry was okay. I was also trying to find a way to tell them about Henry's growth and age spirt without them thinking I needed to see a shrink or something. It was better for them to see that part for themselves.

There was also messaging the Little family... huh, I wonder if they have a son named Stuart. Cinderella and Jared agreed to our plan, then we came to the house.

I knocked on the door and Mrs. Bigg answered the door. She asked, "may I help you?"

"We're personal friends of your son Henry and we know where he is. May we come in?" I asked, hoping they didn't suspect us as kidnappers or something.

Mrs. Bigg gasped slightly and I noticed Mr. Bigg frozen in place from the far side of the room. I curled my lips inside of my mouth while the mother looked at me with seriousness in her eyes. It had been a long time for her, but it was longer for Henry.

"Where is he?" Mrs. Bigg asked.

"Dr. Hunter has him, I'm afraid. He held us hostage and we barely managed to escape. Some of our friends are getting the police involved," Jared replied.

"Come in!"

The three of us came in and I got the feeling that the Little family was probably hearing this too. I could see Jared suspecting this as well. Being in the V-Squad, I learned to detect any spy or anyone from hidden places, training with Lucy and Tom. I could see small shadows moving, which told me it was one of the members of the Little family.

We sat on the couch while the parents sat on their comfy chairs. I took a deep breath to start out the story, or at least one that they would believe.

"So all of you were kidnapped by Dr. Hunter?" Mrs. Bigg asked. "But he was arrested when Henry went missing!"

"There's not much we can say, except we met Henry the day we were fighting Dr. Hunter," I said, halfly telling the truth.

"I see," Mr. Bigg replied.

"Luckily, Tom and Lucy helped us escape, but Henry willingly wanted to distract him, so that we could get the police," Cinderella said.

"Who's Tom and Lucy?" Mrs. Bigg asked us. "And why would Henry want to do something like that? He's only nine!"

"That part is a long and complicated story and we couldn't stop him, even if we tried. That's partly why we're going to you, and Tom and Lucy are some of Henry's little friends," Jared replied before I nugged him on the side and heard him slightly cring. He didn't have to be that obvious!

"Can you show us where our son is at?" Mr. Bigg asked. At least he didn't get suspicious over Jared's little remark.

"Sure," I replied before the parents lead us to their car. At least they believed us! I was also hoping the other Littles caught onto our message. I noticed Dinky hiding in a small hole and I mouthed to him. 'GO! Get your plane to help bring them back!' I noticed his eyes widening before giving him a wink. I then got inside the backseat of the car.

Jaden's POV

Much to our displeasure, Mad Scientist Jared hardwired and stole a vehicle. I mean as exciting as it sounds, I'd hate to be arrested for stealing and ruining cars. Though, we did need a way to reach the Police Station fast. I was mostly hoping that we could get there before Henry got himself in deeper trouble. Though, I got the feeling that he could take Dr. Hunter down on his own.

We finally made it to the Police Station and walked through the doors. Mad Scientist Jared went to the police and said crazily, "Hello officers, we know where Dr. Hunter is!"

I could see Princess Emily slapping her forehead with her palm before I said, "what he means to say is that Dr. Hunter was found and he's fighting with our friend right now! You think you could help us? We would've called, but he took our cell phones after we passed out!"

"We'll send some of our men after him and you tell us where he's kept," The officer ordered us.

"We won't let you down, officer," I promised. I hope Henry's okay!

Henry's POV

Jack and I finally found Dr. Hunter, who was looking for Tom and Lucy. I was starting to wonder how long he had been looking for them. It didn't matter, because I was about to kick his butt for stocking me and trying to hurt my friends in the past. Dr. Hunter had been hunting them down for FAR too long! It's time for some payback and I could see my friends were wanting payback as well.

"WHERE ARE THOSE LITTLES?" Dr. Hunter asked with frustration.

I made no haste to answer that question. I glared, "HERE, I WANT YOU TO MET MY LITTLE FRIEND!" I punched him across the mouth, then kicked him across the waist and he fell on the ground.

"You little pest!" Dr. Hunter growled before he attacked me to the ground.

I used my skills as a V-Squad member to kick Dr. Hunter on the side and try to pin him down. Unfortunately, his upper body strength was stronger than mine. I could feel my body doing twisty moves before finding myself being pinned down on my front side. I was trying my hardest to free myself from Dr. Hunter's grasp.

Jack used his vampire strength to throw Dr. Hunter off of me, which made him extremely annoyed. I felt myself panting while getting on my feet. My eyes flamed with fighting spirit. I wasn't ready to back down just yet. I wanted to fight some more with this jerk! I got out my sword, which I used to fight vampires, and then backed my enemy up against the wall with the blade touching his neck.

"Are you really planning on killing me?" Dr. Hunter smirked with no fear in his eyes.

"I think it's obvious if I was, you'd be dead!" I spat at him. "I'm just making sure you stay here until the police arrive!"

"Not in a million years, Henry Bigg!" Dr. Hunter glared before I felt a shock on my side and fell on the floor. He shocked me with a taser!

"HENRY!" Jack cried aloud before he was attacked by the taser himself and passed out. NO!

Dr. Hunter grabbed me by the neck with that sick smirk on his face I wanted to punch out and said, "you can't defeat me, Henry. You'll always be the frightened little boy trying to protect your pesky little friends, who can't even take care of themselves."

"YOU'RE WRONG!" Dr. Hunter heard a loud squeaky voice before he turned, then a huge scream in his right ear, which made him drop me and almost trip. "WHERE ARE YOU, YOU..." He tried searching for my friends, but they were hidden and before he knew it, he found himself kicked from behind and pinned to the ground by me. I wasn't gonna let him hurt my friends!

"Thanks guys!" I thanked my friends.

"No prob lamo," Tom replied.

"You... You..." Dr. Hunter seethed through his teeth.

"We maybe small, but we can kick your huge butt!" Lucy smirked with pride.

"And I can pin you down!" I glared before whispering in his ear. "And if you ever mess with my friends or do anything to hurt them, I will kill you."

I heard sirens from the police outside before hearing footsteps. I knew that they arrived, especially when they entered in to find me with Dr. Hunter pinned down and my friend unconscious.

"We'll take it from here, son," the police officer told me before I released Dr. Hunter and let the police handle him.

"HENRY!" I heard... Mom?

My heart sank as I slowly turned my head and saw her frozen face. Nothing much had changed and I knew it was because, even though I was gone for six years, it was only a year for her. I wanted to cry, but I couldn't get the tears to come out. I also didn't want to cry in front of the police. That'd be embarrassing. Still, it didn't matter. My mom was here!

I immediately ran into Mom's arms and held her tight. It didn't matter. Nothing mattered. I just wanted to see my parents again and let them know I loved them so much!

"Mom! I missed you so much!" I cried aloud.

"Henry! How? I... You're..." My mom muttered speechlessly.

"It's a long story. For you it's been a year, but six years for me," I replied, leaving my mom in her frozen state-of-mind.

"Dimensional travel, it happens," Normal Emily shrugged as my mom studied her.

"Uh-huh."

"Mom, there's something I think I should've told you long ago. Can we go home?" I asked.

"Of course, sweety," Mom replied before we got into the car and she drove us back home. My other friends rode inside some van Mad Scientist Jared stole to go to the police station. Go figure!

Tom's POV

Lucy and I were able to hitch a ride on Dinky's flying airplane. After hearing Normal Emily message him about us, he followed her and flew to us. Dinky was kind of surprised when he saw that we grew into teenagers instead of nine-year-olds. Even made a joke of what Mom would do. HA! Same ol' Dinky!

We finally made it home and my sister and I never hesitated to run to our parents and shout, "MOM! DAD! WE'RE HOME!"

I saw Dad turned and almost jump before I hugged him and Mom tightly. Lucy joined along as well. I could even see tears in her eyes, which I wanted to pour out, but my manly side kicked in. I didn't want to cry and make myself look weak. Still, I was glad to finally be home.

"Tom, Lucy, is that you?" Grandpa asked in shock.

"Grandpa Little!" Lucy cried aloud before both of us hugged our grandpa.

"Told ya we'd find them!" Dinky said, showing off a little. I could see my grandpa muttering curses under his breath.

"How is this possible, you look... six years older at least!" Mom asked in shock.

"We've been traveling through other dimensions! I know it sounds off, but... how else do you explain why I'm going through puberty?" I asked, showing my new strength.

"Neato! You've really grown!" Dinky said amazed.

"Yep," I bragged.

"You're such a dork," Lucy said rolling her eyes.

"I think Henry's home!" I said, running to the vent.

"Wow, he's really grown!" Dinky responded. "He's..."

"He doesn't look like the Henry I know. Henry was an innocent young lad, but now he's..." Grandpa said with curtain surprise.

"It's like that little boy disappeared from him," Dad finished Grandpa's statement. I guess it's hard for them to realize how grown up Henry is now.

"Henry says he thinks we should let his parents know about us," Lucy told everyone as their eyes widened. "We've been traveling universes and stayed in one for six years. Henry kept asking himself why he couldn't let his parents in on his secret if they're his family. I mean, if our family's always sticking together, why can't his?"

"But they're gonna tell Dr. Hunter and put us in a museum and stuff!" Dinky worried.

"That was just a dream you had!" I disagreed. "They're our friends too aren't they? Just as much as Henry! They've always encouraged him to not judge someone by their looks or sizes!"

"And besides that, how would you guys feel if we were hiding friends from you guys, even if they were smaller than us?" Lucy asked them rhetorically. They all gave glances and seemed to see our point.

"You really have grown up, kids," Dad said with a small smile.

"They're right, Hon. We can't pressure Henry to keep lying to his parents like that. He's now in his teenage years and it'll be much harder on him now than it was before," Mom said as our Grandpa sighed deeply in agreement.

"I doubt if we can stop Henry now anyways. He's grown more stubborn than a mule," I slightly joked before hearing a snort from my sister.

"Well, I suppose we might as well introduce ourselves. I take it his other friends know about us too?" Grandpa asked and I nodded.

"They travel universes and have seen more wacko stuff than us," Lucy explained before we slipped through the vent to finally reveal ourselves to Henry's parents.

Henry's POV

My parents, my friends, and I all sat in the Living Room and I was ready to reveal my hidden secret. This had to be done! I was tired of lying to them and asking myself why I couldn't trust them. Tom and Lucy promised me that they would talk to their folks and explain to them why this has to be done. No matter what happens, we'll stick together until the end.

"So, what is it you want to talk to us about?" Dad asked.

"I've been hiding something from you the last time I was here. I just wanted to protect my friends, but... after spending six years away from you... I realized that I never trusted you and I should have," I admitted as my parents looked at me with raised eyebrows. "And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for lying to you and hiding things from you. I'm gonna always trust you and be truthful about this."

"Henry I..." Dad muttered before I noticed my friends coming out from the vent. I guess they agreed with Tom's and Lucy's statement. I excitedly ran to my friends and picked up Tom and Lucy. My parents saw and gasped at the sight. I noticed Grandpa Little seemingly nervous about this, but went along with it.

"Hey guys!" Dinky greeted. "I suppose we should introduce ourselves!"

"Mom, Dad, these are my friends!" I showed my parents. "Tom and Lucy Little!"

"Nice to meet ya!" Tom said with his huge smile.

"Oh son of a gun, they do exist!" Dad said in a shocked tone. Mom knelt down to Lucy's and Tom's mother, who held a smile.

"Hello there!" Mom greeted.

"Hello! It's a pleasure to finally meet you in person!" Mrs. Little said before my mom began chuckling.

"So, we've been having another family living in our vents this whole time?" Dad asked me with a smirk.

"Yeah. I'm sorry for hiding this from you," I apologized.

"No need, son. Seeing that Dr. Hunter was right, and stocking you like a child molester, it's no wonder you've been hiding them from us, or even the world," Dad replied as I smiled. "Looks like we got ourselves some neighbors in our own house!"

We all laughed and I knew that this was how things should've been and now it could be. We were all a family and closer than ever. That's when I noticed a portal arriving and sucked my friends in. I knew they were going on another adventure and I would forever stay on my own.
