I stood beside Up as he read Bug's short eulogy.

Specs and Krayonder stood solemnly to the right of us, whilst Tootsie and Tin-Can were standing not to far to our left. Tootsie had a face of confusion whilst Tin-Can stared straight ahead. February was making baby-dying-seal-chokey noises near to them. At our feet was a shoebox with Bug's remains in them.

"Room for one more?" a familiar voice called from behind us as we prepared to dig the grave.

"B-BUG!" February yelled and ran towards him. He was... orange...? "It really is you!" Everyone began to greet him and he looked at the shoebox.

"I'm the ambassador for this Planet and the G.L.E.E! I get to go with you guys!" Bug grinned. February started her baby-dying-seal-chokey noises again, but was smiling this time.

"HEY ERRYBODY!" Tootsie yelled. "Let's turn this funeral... into a wedding!" he tore a candy ring from his front pocket and looked coyly at Tin-Can, before getting on one knee and grinning as she nodded beserkly. The pair boot-shuffled towards Up, who beamed. Then it hit me, Commanders were ordained to marry couples on the Battlefield.

"Do you, Tootsie Megagirl, take this Robot to be your lawfully wedded machine?"

"Hell yea!"

"And do you, Ultrabeam Megagirl, take this man to be your lawfully wedded Husband?"

"Afirmitive!" she beamed.

"Well by the power vested in me by the state and county of Moville Alabama, I pronounce you Man Vs Machine!" he held a hand between them, before lowering it. "FIGHT!"

Instead of fighting, the pair locked lips, sealing their love. I frowned. The last wedding I was at was George and Freya's. Strange to think she's pregnant right now.

We were nearing the academy, when Bug brought up Space Claw.

"We have to tell him about his son."

"We have to tell him that what he did was wrong!" February exclaimed.

"We have to have people on our side first." Krayonder frowned. "We can't simply waltz into his office and yell at him!"

"We can get people on our side." I was muttering before I could stop it. It was the first time since we left I'd spoken up. "H-hand me the telepod." I held my hand out, and Specs pressed the intership communication device into my hand, before I dialed the number.

"May I help?" the voice of the Academy's answering device replied after the third ring. I muttered the code down the receiver, before another voice answered me.

"Communicating name and partner please."

"Communication from uno Lieutenant Taz to Nurse Okinshiawa."

"Communication granted." the line began to ring again.

"Hello?" Saki's soft voice picked up.

"Hola."

"Taz?"

"Listen, Saki. I need to tell jou something."

"Are you sure this is going to work?" Saki asked me as she followed February, Krayonder and I down the hallway.

"Trust us." February turned and winked at her, and she blinked back.

"This isn't logical, we should have more back up!"

"We have as much as we can get right now." I growled. "George and dem two ensigns he's got had better follow Megagirl's orders or dey'll get blown sky high!"

"We'd better start, we're near his office." Krayonder muttered.

"Wish me luck." February blinked and moved round the corner to face the steel door, before knocking on it calmly. Krayonder pulled out a computer tablet and began to run a system on it.

"Is de tracker working?" I hissed as we placed the receivers in our ears. The other two groups had put theirs in long ago.

"Who am I? Specs?" Krayonder growled. Suddenly the sound leapt into our ears...

"What are you doing here? I thought I told my son to kill you now."

"Y-your son is dead, sir."

"What?"

"He was killed by the bugs, sir."

"Those evil bugs-"

"No! It was your son who was evil!"

"If he was evil, then I am too."
