Chapter 33: Velgrox:
Miko's POV:
So, here we are. Just chilling. So far, we haven't heard anything from anywhere. Duke is now obsessed with trying to find Cobra Commander and Stretch Monster. I hope it's not like when he was getting obsessed with Evox. Finally, something came. The Director entered.
"We got a distress call from an old friend."
He showed us the hologram. It was Rom the Space Knight.
"Unit: E," says Rom, "I need help! My planet..."
Then something jumped on him.
"Velgrox," says Jack.
"The Autobots told us about these guys," says Raf.
"Oh yeah," I said, "that was some story. Yeah, had alot of... stuff..."
"You never listened, did you," asks Jack.
"No. Reminder, please."
"They're a violent alien race who place great value on the importance of a good meal," says Raf, "Their favorite meal consists of other sentient organisms. Velgrox hunters wield web-based weaponry, snaring their targets and bringing them back to their ship. There, the prey is held, sometimes for days, until the Velgrox consumes it."
"That... sounds gross," says Twilight.
"Yeah, I really should've listened," I said.
"Rom needs our help," says Jack.
"Anuhthah planet is outside our jurisdictiohn," says Brightmore.
"But he's our friend," says Twilight.
"I never met him," says Steel, "but I really want to see another planet. Though, technically, I'm from another planet, I was fully born here. I am very confused."
"What are you going to do, Duke," asks the Director.
Duke things. "First, we'll have to find a way to that planet."
"We might know a way," I said.
. . .
We arrived at the Decepticon Space Bridge.
"So, how are we going to use it," asks Twilight.
"Leave that to myself," says Brightmore, "Ra-Vu, Seekah of Lightning!"
Ra-Vu is then summoned, and he works the controls while Raf gives the instructions.
"You know," says Steel, "I hope to see Cybertron one day."
"And maybe you will," says Dr. Robertson.
"It's ready," says Brightmore.
We were then transported, and it was AWESOME!
. . .
We are now on the planet. It was so advanced.
"Kind of reminds me of Cybertron," says Jack.
"Let's start looking," says Duke.
"I think I found Rom," says Steel.
Rom appears.
"My friends," says Rom, "welcome to my home planet, Galador."
"This is your home," asks Raf.
"Yes, the Velgrox have come and are abducting the Galadorians."
"But don't they prefer organic life," I asked.
"The Galadorians are organic. It's the Space Knights that are metallic."
"Oh."
"Speaking of metallic, Hi, I'm Steel. I'm a maxim that can turn into a giant scarab."
"A pleasure to meet you. We must hurry."
"Lead the way, Rom," says Duke.
. . .
Rom was taking us to where the Velgrox ship was. We saw the Velgrox.
"Gross," I said, "it's like their teeth are their mouths."
"Here's the plan," I said, "Steel, Rom, and Ra-Vu will keep the guards busy while the rest of us sneak in. Let's go."
"Hey Velgross," says Steel, "we're here to break your ship!"
"You will not harm the people of Galador," says Rom.
Ra-Vu just raises his arms.
The Velgrox then fired their webs at them. During the fight, the rest of us are able to sneak in.
. . .
We are now in the halls.
"We split up," says Duke, "Jack and Twilight, you're with me. We're going to the left. Miko and Raf, you're with Dr. Robertson. You're going to the right."
"What about Brightmore," I asked.
"He has to stay behind for Ra-Vu," says Raf.
"Right, Duel Master rules."
"Let's go," says Duke.
. . .
My team was heading to the right. We had to be careful and make sure no chopperlips spotted us. Man, this place is creepy.
"They could be anywhere," says Raf.
"Raf, see if your Maximal powers include scanners," says Dr. Robertson.
Raf gives it a try.
"Hey, it works."
"One of the perks of being part robot," I said.
"We have to go this way," says Raf.
Duke's POV:
We were searching through the halls until we found a room.
"Think it could be it," asks Jack.
"One way to find out," I said, "Unit: E, let's play rough!"
I then kicked the door down, but what we saw horrified Twilight. You see, it turns out to be a Velgrox locker room. The Velgrox were prepared to attack.
"Um, if you don't mind," says Twilight, "put on some towels?"
The Velgrox then proceed to do so... on their heads.
"Try a little lower," suggests Jack.
The Velgrox then put two and two together and put the towels around the right areas.
"Now we can fight," I said.
Brightmore's POV:
Ra-Vu, Steel, and Rom were still fighting the Velgrox guaaarding the ship.
"This must be how Spider-Man's enemies feel," says Steel, because of the Velgrox's webs.
"These creatures just won't stop," says Rom, "we're going to need a new strategy."
"Steel, we can use their web blasters against them," says Ra-Vu.
"Good idea, Ra-Vu." Steel then grabs ah web blastah and shoohts some Velgrox with it.
Rom does the same.
Aftah the Velgrox were all webbed up, it dons ohn Steel.
"Wait a minute! Ra-Vu can talk?"
"One suppose I've ne'ah mentioned it," One said, "he doesn't fancy to chinwag soh much."
"Your planet continues to confuse me," says Rom.
Miko's POV:
We were moving until we finally found where they were holding the Galadorians.
"Who are you," one asks.
"Name's Miko and we are with Unit: E."
"Then you are Rom's friends from Earth," says one guy, "I am also from another planet. I, too, am from another planet. I am Feryl of Prysmos."
I looked at him and couldn't stop looking. This guy sure is cute.
"Uh... Miko," says Raf, "we kind of have a mission."
"A what? Oh right! We're here to save someone from something."
"The Galadorians from the Velgrox," says Dr. Robertson, "but first, how did you get here?"
"The Space Knights helped my friends and I save our planet from Darkstorm and his Darkling Lords. I came to repay them."
"Let's get them out," says Raf.
We managed to get some out, including Feryl, but then some Velgrox came. One of them said something, but I don't speak Velgrox.
"Allow me to help in this." Feryl then turned into a wolf.
"Woah! He's a werewolf," I said, "Oh yeah, I definitely like this guy."
Dr. Robertson and I used our NERF blasters. Raf used his Maximal powers, and Feryl went animal on them.
"We still need to find a way to get rid of these guys for good," says Dr. Robertson.
"Hey Feryl, you wouldn't know how to destroy this ship," I said, "would you?"
Being a wolf, Feryl couldn't talk, so he gestured me to follow him, and I did so.
. . .
Feryl and I arrived at the engine room and saw the big engine.
"Oh, it's that simple," I said, "all we gotta do is..."
Then a tall Velgrox showed up. He's probably the leader.
"Yeah," I said, "that figures."
Feryl then took him on. It was a weird wolf vs. alien fight. I was distracted, but then I remembered why I was there, and so I aimed my NERF blaster at the engine and blasted it.
. . .
Feryl and I ran, and we ran past my teammates while I yelled "THE SHIP'S GOING TO EXPLODE!"
We all made it outside.
"What did we miss," asks Ra-Vu.
"Wait and... wait, you can talk?"
The ship then explodes.
"That should destroy this group of Velgrox," says Rom.
"I hope none of them ever come to Earth," says Dr. Robertson.
. . .
"Somehow, our organization got the Space Bridge working," says Duke, "so it's time to go."
"And I have to return to my planet," says Feryl.
"Maybe... I'll see you again," I said.
"Maybe." Feryl then kisses my hand and goes to his ship.
I just stared.
"Time to go," says Jack.
I stood there, frozen.
"I will help with this." Ra-Vu then picked me up.
"Seriously," says Duke, "has he been able to talk the whole time?"
Feryl is a character from Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light. Anyway, in the next chapter, The Choten will be joining Cobra Commander and Stretch Monster.
