Hello again, fellow readers and authors. I'm bringing you another chapter of my scary PJ Masks story. Now, it's the week where "Catboy and the Lunar Dome" and "Gekko and the Rock of All Power" airs, and I know it seems like a constant theme for me to write and upload a chapter for a story I'm working on, but sometimes I can't help myself. I plan on watching, and re-watching, superhero shows, animated and live action, for inspiration for future PJ Masks stories, and I can't wait to see what I find.
Response to comments I've gotten-
Bob4tide: Thank you. I came up with that myself.
FireKing Atlas: Thanks. And, yes. In my stories, I have Amaya giving Connor kisses, and in the last chapter, not only did she give him a kiss, but he gave her a kiss, also.
Bluecatcinema: Yeah. Those were some sweet moments they had.
Jacobfrit: I know that you wrote the first PJ Masks fanfic on Wattpad, and I'm updating my fic right now.

Chapter 6- The Morning After
The next morning; Connor and Amaya were still sleeping inside the tent. Amaya was waking up, getting her glasses from her backpack, and looked at Connor who was still sleeping next to her.
Amaya: (whispering to herself) Aww… He looks so cute asleep.
Just then; he started to wake up.
Connor: (yawning, and stretching his arms out)…
Amaya: (giggles). You should cover your mouth the next time you yawn around other people.
Connor: (giggles). Morning, Amaya.
Amaya: Morning, Connor.
Connor: Ready to go back to camp?
Amaya: Yeah. But, before we get the stuff we need to fill in for our powers, can we clean up first?
Connor: Sure. We can use the latrine when we're back at camp.
Amaya: Thanks.
They get out of their sleeping bags, and out of the tent. Before they move any further, Connor stops.
Connor: By the way; should we do something about your tent?
Amaya: We'll come back for it later. Hopefully, it won't be ruined by the lake monster, or anything else by the time we come back for it.
Connor: Ok.
They continue walking through the forest until they've reached the camp. They both go to the boys' and girls' latrines, and begin cleaning up. A few minutes after; Connor was still in the boys' latrine, as he was dressed in his normal daytime attire, and finishing up brushing his teeth.
Voice: (eerily whispers) Connor…
Connor: What?!
Voice: (teasingly whispering) Cooonnnnnnnnoooooorrrr…
Connor: (groans)! Not again! We just woke up!
Suddenly; the door to the latrine slams shut, and the water faucets turn on all by themselves. He was starting to shake with fear.
Voice: I warned you that scary things would happen today, and I will show just how scary things will be. (laughing maniacally)!
The latrine started to flood about halfway to the ceiling, and he was becoming scared.
Connor: (panting)!… AMAYA!
Amaya, who was also cleaned up and dressed in her daytime clothes, hears Connor screaming her name.
Amaya: (gasps)!
She goes over to the boys' latrine, and sees some water leaking from the door.
Amaya: Connor! What's going on?
Connor: The stranger locked me in here, and it's flooding! Get me out of here!
Amaya: Hang on. When I was locked in the closet, Ms. Zane used some tools to get me out. Where did she get them from?
Connor: The cook give them to her. They were in the lodge kitchen.
Amaya: Ok. I'll go get them, and get you out. Stay put.
Connor: Like I have a choice right now!
Amaya: Oh. Right. Sorry.
She goes to the lodge, heads into the kitchen, looks through the cabinets, and finds the bag of tools.
Amaya: Yes!
She heads back outside, and goes back to the latrine.
Amaya: Ok, Connor. I'm back, and I've got the tools.
Connor: Good. Now, get me out of here!
Amaya: I will. Just, stay calm.
She looks for the hinges, but sees that they're on the inside. So, she looks at the doorknob, and sees that she can unscrew it. She pulls out a Phillips head screwdriver, and starts unscrewing the bolts. Unfortunately, the other bolts can be unscrewed from the inside, but she didn't let that stop her. She pulls out a hammer, and starts banging on the knob until it comes loose.
The inside of the latrine was flooding a lot worse, and Connor had almost reached the ceiling.
Connor: I can't believe they're trying to drown me again.
All of a sudden; the water burst the door open, and he started coming out of there screaming.
Connor: (sliding on the ground, and panting)!
Amaya, who kept a safe distance from the bursting water, rushed over to him.
Amaya: (hugging him) Connor! Are you okay?
Connor: Yeah. I'm fine.
He, then, sees something familiar lying wet on the ground.
Connor: Hey. (pointing) Look!
They see the stranger's clothes on the ground.
Amaya: Those are the stranger's clothes. But, where's the stranger?
Voice: Over here.
They look to where they hear the voice, and are in shock to see the stranger's true form.
Both of them: (gasps)!
The stranger was actually a robotic type of thing. Like a spider with really long legs.
Voice: There's someone who wants to see you.
Connor: (whispers to Amaya) I'm pretty sure it's Romeo.
The robotic figure shrinks down and approaches the two. Its screen appears all static like, and then Romeo's face appears.
Amaya: Yep. You're right.
Romeo: Well hello, PJ Lovebirds. Did you two have a sweet little moment together while my lake monster was hunting you down? (making kissing noises)… (laughs)…
Both of them: (growling, and blushing)! …
Romeo: Anyway; I see you've met my Spyder. That's spelled S.P.Y.D.E.R., because I had it spy on you, and it looks like a spider. Also; it took something you needed very badly.
The screen shows what the spyder took from them.
Amaya: (gasp)! You had it take our wristbands!
Romeo: That's right. Without your wristbands, you're powerless.
Connor: Did this "Spyder" do all those scary things to us?
Romeo: Yes. And you're wondering "How?". It has some special powers that I installed in it.
Amaya: Of course, you made the monster, too. But, how did Cameron know what it looked like?
Romeo: He didn't. One: He made it up to be anything he wanted it to be. And, two: My robot monster can morph into any type of monster it's described as. I listened to the ghost stories in case they were talking about a lake monster.
Amaya: That just proves that this isn't his fault.
Romeo: Speaking of which; everyone that my monster has captured is safe, including your precious little lizard.
Connor: Where are you keeping them?
Romeo: I'll show you tonight.
Both of them: You will?
Romeo: Yes. But, take this as a warning; just because you found out that this camp isn't really haunted, and I'm pulling the strings around here, doesn't mean that your experience here will be any less scary.
They both look at each other a bit nervously.
Romeo: Now, like I said; I will show you where your friends are, but you have to do something for me.
They both look at him suspiciously.
Amaya: What do you want us to do?
Romeo: Well, I'll show you a big holographic sign in the air. That sign is where the entrance to my place here is.
Connor: Yes?
Romeo: Also, I'll tell you where your wristbands are.
Amaya: Uh-huh?
Romeo: After I tell you, you have to do a dance for me.
Both of them: (confused) A dance?
Romeo: Yes. You do the dance, and I'll let you into my place. But, there's a twist to this dance.
They look at each other a bit worried.
Connor: (arms crossed) What is this twist?
Romeo: The twist is: At the end of this dance, You. Two. Must. KISS!
Both of them: (blushing) KISS?!
Romeo: That's right! And, while you're dancing and smooching, my spyder will film the whole thing, and I'll post it on the internet! You want to save your friends, do the dance. If you don't dance for me, you'll never see them again, they'll all be my slaves, and I'll rule the world! (laughing maniacally)! … Oh. And, Robot and Robette will teach you how to do the dance. They'll be waiting for you at the lake in the next seven hours. Better think soon. See you tonight, lovey-doveys.
The screen on the spyder turns off, and it leaves super quick. Connor and Amaya were looking at each other feeling nervous and embarrassed.
Amaya: (blushing) I can't believe this. Us. Kissing?!
Connor: (blushing) I know. It's really weird.
They both were contemplating the idea of kissing to themselves, but they never thought about doing that so soon. They thought about doing it when they were a bit older since they were only six years old, but considering the situation they were in right now, they realized that they were going kiss a bit sooner, not like they had a choice right now.
Connor: (blushing) Um… How about we get the stuff to fill in for our powers, and talk about this later?
Amaya: (blushing) Sure.
They go around the camp looking for certain things that would be a good enough substitute for their powers, and they put them in their cabin along with the bag of tools. An hour after; they were sitting in the cabin staring into space, and thinking about the dance they had to do, and the fact that they had to kiss at the end.
Connor: (breaking the silence) Ok. Can we talk about the fact that we have to… (gulps, and blushes)! … kiss now?
Amaya: (blushes) Yes. I think that you should go first. Say what you feel like saying.
Connor: (nervously) Alright. It's not that I don't want to kiss you, I mean have last night. But, not like… (blushing again) You know.
Amaya: Yeah.
Connor: (nervously) I mean, you are the only girl on our team, and I think that you're… really pretty.
Amaya: (blushing) Thanks.
She gets up, and sits next to him in his bed.
Amaya: (nervously) I also have… (blushes again) kissed you a few times. And, I think that you're cute and handsome.
Connor: (blushes again) Thanks.
Amaya: (blushing) But, I kind of wanted to tell you that… Erm…
He saw how scared she looked with trying to tell him something.
Connor: You know what; you don't have to tell me now. Maybe, another time?
Amaya: Ok… Thanks.
She was glad that he understood if she wasn't ready to say something; but then, she thought of something else.
Amaya: Oh. You know what I was thinking?
Connor: What?
Amaya: What will the others think if they see that video of us? I know Greg would understand better because, he knows Romeo just as much as we do; but everyone else might get mad at us because, they might think that we were being selfish kissing each other while they needed saving.
Connor: Aww, man. I never thought about it like that. That's one of the things I'm not proud of myself for, and I'd most likely hate myself for.
She sees that he's hurting, and feels a little guilty.
Amaya: Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to open that old wound, Connor.
Connor: It's okay. You were just sharing your thoughts.
Amaya: I just don't want you to dwell on this for so long. I mean, no one's perfect.
Connor: Thanks for understanding, Amaya.
Amaya: You're welcome.
They smile at each other, and she decides to change the subject.
Amaya: Hey. How about you show me your Master Fang comic? I'm usually not as interested in him as you are, but I figured that maybe I could see how cool he is sometime.
Connor: And, you think that now would be a good time?
Amaya: Well, we only have six hours left. Maybe, I could show you my Flossy Flash comic, and you could see how cool she is?
Connor: Why not?
He pulls out his Master Fang comic, and they read it together.
Meanwhile, in the place where Romeo has everyone captive; Greg was in his cell, thinking about what was going on, and drawing on the wall. His drawings were about him and his friends as the PJ Masks, and they were defeating the scary monsters and saving everyone. His drawings were bad, as he admitted that he's not good at drawing, but they were all he had at the moment to have some faith.
Greg: (sighs). I hope that Connor and Amaya know what's going on here. And, I hope that if they feel like it, they'll tell each other that they like each other already. Them being happy with each other would make me happy.
He closes his eyes, and tries to contemplate what could happen next.
Five hours later; Connor and Amaya were still in the cabin waiting for when they were to go to the lake, and practice their dance for Romeo. They had only five minutes left, and they were making the most out of it. Connor was drawing a sketch of Amaya, as she agreed to pose for him. She was excited to see what his drawing of her looked like. He was always good at drawing, and he enjoyed drawing very much. He considered it one of his favorite hobbies.
Amaya: Are you done yet, Connor? My neck is stiff.
He adds the finishing touches to his drawing.
Connor: Just, about done.
Amaya: (exhales, and moves her neck)…
He flips his drawing pad over, and shows her his sketch.
Amaya: Wow! It's awesome!
Connor: Thanks.
His drawing of her was very well done. It looked like it could be an actual sketch.
Amaya: How are you so good at drawing at the age of six?
Connor: I just practiced until I got better, and went along with it.
Amaya: Well, you definitely have a gift.
Connor: Oh. We'd better change into our pajamas. It's almost time for us to meet up with Robot and Robette, and for them to teach us the dance. You go change in the latrine. I'll change in here. After what happened in the boys' latrine, I don't feel very private changing in there.
Amaya: Ok.
She gets out of the cabin, and goes to the latrine. He closes the door, and pulls out his pjs.
A few minutes after; they were walking to the lake in their pajamas, and see Robot and Robette waiting for them by the docks.
Connor: There they are.
They went over to the two robots, and shook hands with both of them.
Robot: Hello, PJ Masks as their daytime selves.
Robette: I'm Robette. We are going to teach you two this very special dance.
Amaya: We know.
Robette: Yes. We are aware.
Robot: Let us start off nice and slow, Robette. Follow our lead, PJ Masks.
The two robots hold each other in a tango position, and Connor and Amaya do the same, feeling a bit embarrassed. First; they take three steps forward. Then; they take two steps forward, and spin. Then; they spin, take a step forward, and stick their heels out. Then; they spin again, take a step forward, and dip. Then; they stick out their heels, look up, take a step forward, and spin. Then; they step forward again, look up, spin, and dip. Then; they take a step forward, stick out their heels, look up, and take another step forward. Then; they spin, stick out their heels again, look up again, and dip. Then; they spin, stick out their heels, and take a step forward. Then; they take two steps forward, and dip. Then; they stick out their heels, take a step forward, and dip again. And, then; they stick out their heels again, look up, dip again, and spin. The robots did the kiss at the end, but Connor and Amaya almost kiss. Their hesitation and embarrassment of it makes everything feel awkward to them.
Robot: You must kiss each other for Master Romeo.
Connor: (blushing) We know. We're already nervous and embarrassed about this.
Robette: You will do it at the spot, then?
Amaya: (blushing) I guess we will.
Robot: Good luck then, PJ Masks.
The two heroes head back to the camp. While they were walking, they were both thinking about being recorded dancing and kissing, and they weren't excited.
Amaya: Oh. I really don't like that we have to be filmed kissing. Romeo is crazy if he thinks he can get away with that.
Connor: Maybe, he won't get away with it.
Amaya: Please, tell me you have a plan.
Connor: I think I do.
He whispers something in her ear, and she feels a little bit better.
Amaya: Phew. I hope it works.
Connor: Only one way to find out.
They continue heading back to camp.
That was chapter six. Now, I know a lot of you thought it was quite extreme to have Connor and Amaya kissing, but I think there has to be a border for that type of stuff. In kids' shows, I think that it's appropriate for the adults to kiss. Now, if there are children in the show, they can kiss each other's hands, foreheads, and cheeks. If it's a kiss on the lips, it should not be a make-out session. It can be a kiss on the lips, but it shouldn't be very big. You can think of me as a sick human being if you want, but it could be worse. At least they aren't going to you-know-what. Because in my opinion, that's sicker than them kissing at the age of six, and I know some of you wouldn't disagree with me on that. And, if I wanted to do a sex story on them, I would make them so much older. Plus; sorry about the tedious tango lesson. It was just to describe them practicing. And, sorry about my rant. I'm just defending my writing, and how I view things. Just be glad that this is fanfiction, and not an actual episode. Anyway; let me know what you guys thought of this chapter in your reviews. I will see you guys later.
