Chapter 20: 627's Big Adventure -or- Elsewhere And Other Times
KAUAI, HAWAII -TWO DAYS BEFORE-
627 was a very complicated experiment.
Good, the whole concpet was a mystery to him. The idea of good was understandable to 627 now that he'd "helped" save Lilo, he just preferred naughtiness a lot more. There was just something about doing what was wrong that appealed to him, he was programmed to never be good. He was tamed, that'd be the word to describe him. He still had a full set of destructive tendencies that were ready to turn on a dime, though he kept himself controled for the sake of his family. O'hana, now that was a something he understood without question.
Thinking back, Angel was always his o'hana. She'd be the one to at least try to understand what he was trying to say, having the limited vocabulary of the word "evil" really kept the door closed for conversation. Though he though talking was overrated, since actions speak so much louder. So far the loudest thing he could hear was screams from Pleakley, Angel and 628. He seemed to be the only one who enjoyed it, in fact he wanted Jumba to drive more often. Now that they were at the beach, he needed to find something to keep him busy.
627 looked around for the chainsaw he saw Stitch bring in secret, hoping to get a few kicks out of scaring kids. Eventually he gave up and went to sit with the family, when he noticed Stitch was using the forbiden shredder. While the whole o'hana looked away, 627 couldn't stop watching.
"Evil, evil!" 627 clapped and laughed as he cheered Stitch on.
As fun as it was to watch his cousin destroy a picnic, it didn't last too long. Soon his blue cousin -in both fur color and emotion- walked away, with Lilo later following and both Angel and 628 leaving to check on Lani. That left 627 with nothing to do but possibly get a nap in, until he noticed something flying towards the island. No one in the o'hana seemed to notice, so he used his enhanced vision to catch sight of a ship. A familar looking ship that once took Lilo away, it gave 627 something to do after all.
He kept watch of the ship all day, waiting for it to land in the forest at night. Gantu jumping out of the ship caused him to growl, which stopped when Lani showed herself. She seemed to have things under control, so he decided to help. He jumped into the ship while Gantu fired plasma bolts at Lani, knowing she'd keep him busy for a while. With how much time he thought he had, he began messing around with the ship. Emptying whatever was in the cabinets, blasting the music until the stereo burst, drawing a hamdlebar mustache on one of the pictures of Gantu, true evil.
627 didn't expect Gantu to get back so soon, the only he found out was by being pushed toward the wall by the back of the seat. After going on a wild ride, he was glad the ship finally stopped. With Gantu gone from the ship, 627 rolled out and laid on the floor to calm his churning stomache and aching head. Shaking away the horrible feeling, he cleared his vision enough to see Jumba and Lani being taken away in containment pods. 627 wanted keep close to them to see what was happening, not really caring too much about anything other than leaving.
The only way he could even follow them was to travel by the air vents, which were made bigger as he punched enough room for himself to walk upright in them. Eventually he walked above a room where he heard a shrilly voice scream, it was very irritating on his sensitive ears. Looking down at the air duct, he saw what looked like a gerbil doing more than his fair share of yelling. When he heard the voice of his creator, 627 tried to catch sight of him. After a few minutues of searching, the only thing that made him stop was Lani calling him into the room.
The two villains were long gone with another creature that arrived out of a flash, leaving 627 to growl at the door. Lani stopped his growling by giving him something else to focus on, an arguement between herself and Jumba. His creator wanted to get out of there by any means possible, where Lani told them both to wait for the phone to ring. As strange as things had always been, the strangest had to be that the phone actually rang like she said. Using his telekinetic powers, he gave Jumba the phone and hid back in the vents.
627 waited there for a while longer, only leaving when Lani was moved to another room. Jumba wasn't going anywhere, so he decided to follow her in case she got into trouble. Another ten minutes went by before Lani was alone, this time having words he actually took interest in hearing.
"Oh, Kavi," Lani pat him on his head. "Gantu just doesn't get how things work."
"Evil?" 627 tilted his head to the side.
"He has potential for good, but he's waisting it on the rat," Lani shook her head at the thought. "He's acting bad like you, only you're different. You can only say evil, but you only act out a little bit. You're good, you wouldn't be here if you weren't. Right?"
"Evil," 627 nodded at her statement.
"Everyone can reach their potential, they just need a motive," Lani closed her eyes to rest. "They just need to remember the important things."
That certainly gave him something to think about, this "potential" word. Was it the same as his instincts, or was it something else entirely. Every fiber of his being told him that he was made to be bad, to destroy and ruin everything he saw. For the longest time he would do just that, until the o'hana concept was thrown at him. Now he wasn't so sure he should always wreck things, instead he saved it for when he was bored or when 626 would bother him -or to bother 626 if he was really bored, needless to say he was bored a lot.
Still, was his potential to only be a monster. He thought about it all night, leaving the sleep he actually got to be filled with dreams of chaos. He woke up screaming with an unknown emotion, fear. Collecting himself, he found himself still in the vents. He stretched his back and got out from the roof, just in time to see another strange creature ready to blast his o'hana. Good or not, if anyone wanted to harm them they'd have to go through him first. He jumped off the ship and tackled the creature in the sand before it could cause any harm.
He was completely focused on that, until he caught sight of the full out brawl they were having with Gantu. His grip on the creature wasn't as strong as it should have been, which resulted in it escaping into the ship before it took off. Eventually he caught up with it again, the two wrestled in a ball until they let go in the room Lani had been brought to. The green eyed creature unfurled its sub-arms, 627 accepting the challenge by revealing his double set. When its back spikes stood up, he had an extra. Antennae, had them. After he showed his second head to the creature, it growled.
"Pesu lu nga," the creature confirmed its gender by the pitch of its voice.
"Evil? the left 627 tried to understand her language.
"Nìltsan Tìkawng, oe new tsonta ska'a!" she said in anger.
"Evil?" 627's right head asked the left.
"Evil," the left nodded.
The two heads pulled themself together before 627 shot a plasma blast from his pointed claw, which the creature deflected with a force field. He continued to fire at her until she ran at him full force, knocking them both into the vents. The airflow stopped their fight and sent them to another room, one that the o'hana had occupied. He stepped back to let them handle the creature, which -for a reason 627 didn't care to know- involved singing. Their song made him feel a bit tired, even the creature was passed out after it ended.
621 told him to follow him, which he did until they reached the controls. As hard as 621 tried, he couldn't pull the ship up. 627 tried to help by pulling the steering, only to have it break from its post. 621 glared at the red furred experiment, urging him to do something. 627 was usually one to think things through, though the threat of being blown to bits was enough of a motivation to start trying. Then it hit him, Lani said to reach his potential he needed motivation. All he had to do was take a step back and think, with all his power there had to be something...
Power, that was it! 627 could use his power to land, he just didn't know how much of it he would need. He focused entirely on the ship, nothing else. It took everything he had not to get distracted, he tuned it all out. Amazingly he did it, 621's jaw dropped since he couldn't believe it. He never expected 627 to have that much power, more importantly to be so focused on anything for more than half a minute. Landing the ship did take a lot out of him, though the weak feeling was quickly swept away and replaced with happiness.
Walking to the others like the most important creation ever, his pride went away when everyone gave the praise to 621. After all the hard work 627 put in and to not get what he deserved, he was thinking of using his badness to teach someone a lesson. The only thing that stopped him from doing so was a hand on his shoulder, one belonging to Lani. Behind her was the same creature he fought, only she seemed more benevolent than before. Whatever the case, she didn't cause a single problem when Lani spoke to him.
"I know what you did to help Chopsuey, so thank you," Lani pet his head. "Good boy, Kavi. You'll reach your potential in no time."
Good, the whole concpet was a mystery to him. It meant doing things more so for others than himself, working to help ones who needed him. 627 had done that, though he still felt he had a lot more evil in him. Yet as bad as he acted, he liked being called good from the ones who understood him.
"Evil," 627 smiled as Lani used her power to float behind the adults with him, the creature and 621.
-LANI'S REPORT-
A/Seam
Experiment Number: Alpha
Pod Color: Blue
Creator: Lani Alaula
Name: Seam (she has the power to seam up broken things)
Primary Function: Protecting Others
Gender: Female
Physical Attributes: Rat-like head with lizard body and metal triangle for a tail, retractable pair of sub arms, three back spines and two head antennae
Fur Color: Grey
Scale Color: Yellow with black stripes
Personality: I haven't been around her much, but her main quality is that she's easily excited and very protective over her family
Powers: Force Field (her tail piece glows blue and a bubble appears around those she protects), Healing (tail piece glows blue and heats up, and as a side effect leaves a seam in the middle), Heat Bolt (tail piece fires a blast of blue which blows a hole through what it explodes at)
Abilities: Running ninety mile per hour, climbing walls, fitting into spaces three inches small in diameter
Weakness: Singing personal songs to Seam calms her down
Fail Safe: The numbers of Pi (unused as of late; causes a shut down until she is rebooted), Bright light in her eyes (as told to me by Lilo and Stitch, it causes a temporary shut down; excluding natural light)
One True Place: With me, helping me watch over our o'hana
Lani's Notes: Seam is my daughter, and the first in the lettered experiments. Even though I created her for a reason I reserve the right to say, Seam's already proven to be perfectly fit for the job and beyond. I designed her to be a protector, and in my tiredness I've given her a few abilities that might help her with that goal. Her antennae, sub arms, Heat Bolt, Healing and speach of the Na'vi language weren't originally in her design, but I find they make her even more unique. Concerning the matter of the problem I had with her, it has been resolved. Experiment 621 (better known as Chopsuey) let his human caretaker fire a ray at Seam, which turned her evil. It was Lilo's bravery and quick thinking that allowed me to put her to sleep by singing and fix the glitch, so it will no longer be an issue. With Seam being so different from what I had imagined, I may need to update this report if any new developments in her biology or skillset happen. I await further results on Experiment Alpha.
A/N: FINALLY, after four months this story is officially over! This chapter was especially the most annoying, I wrote it in ten different ways before I could finally get it saved the right way. Anyway, next week I start school so I did end up finishing before it start -and now my promise is kept. Now for some news on the series, I'm done planning. There will be a definate thirty two episodes, seventeen are from the actual series while the rest are my ideas.
There may be a chance that Spooky's and Topper's episodes will be late for their holidays, but I'm working to make that not the case.
Disclaimer: Lilo and Stitch belong to Disney and Sanders. Lani's mine, Seam's mine, 628's mine and Nicholas is mine.
Up Next: Unstables-Continuing three weeks after where A New O'hana left off, Lilo and Stitch are given the task of collecting the rest of Jumba's missing experiments, changing them from bad to good and finding the one place where they truly belong. Along with some help from Angel, 627, 628 and Lani, they may be able to handle all of the powerful experiments as they appear. Meanwhile, the former Captain Gantu and his reluctant partner 625 try to capture the experiments for Dr. Hamsterviel.
Highlights Include: Never before seen Jumba experiments, a universe crossing special episode and all new experiments from Lani.
