[for the nxt 4, 5 mths, Wander stayed on Planet Janet with his parents thru his pregnancy. Hater left the planet occasionally to do his conquering or to go buy things to prepare for the nursery inside the ship (which the minions help to build n renovate), bt most of the time, he was at Wander's beck and call. Once or twice a mth, Wander's parents would get vid calls frm the other children n Wander was able to chat with them aftr not meeting them for so long. During their last vid call, all the siblings promised tht they will all come to visit together on Wander's due day, which was almost soon]
Hater: [was inside the ship supervising (or more like yelling) the Watchdogs on the completion of the nursery]
Wildflower: [was with Sylvia n Angel in the backyard shed trying to figure out the hat]
Angel: How long was it like this...?
Sylvia: Well, Wander told me tht it was since Ryder n he went steady, so yeah, for a while now
Wildflower: I can't believe he locked Wandy's precious hat. It has to be some sort of insane magic. Usually its supposed to go away as soon as the magic caster dies...
Sylvia: Guess in this case, it didnt. It did go wonky n started spitting up stuff during Wander's heat, n I assume its prolly coz Hater n Wander were doing the hanky-panky
Angel:...Has to be some way...other then THAT...(pauses a moment) Unless...
Wildflower: Unless wat, honey?
Angel: (To Sylvia) What you have done to this man...he possibly survived it somehow...
Sylvia: No way, tht's impossible. The stuff we gave him is lethal. Its not evn meant for consumption. We saw him die. We chked his pulse. There is no way he's alive
Angel:...Didn't you mention he had allies?...Who might've been wondering about his absence this whole time...? (hopes Sylvia gets what he's talking about)
Sylvia: [thinks deeply] Well, most of his gang members hv died in the fight aftr the coppers ambushed our ship. Ryder, me and a few of us survived. Ryder got away, no surprise there, n there's me, El Oso who's this shady dude, a smog species frm Planet Fuego, Ursula frm Planet Lyca who's a weird she-wolf species, n then there's this reli creepy octo dude frm Planet La Seine, Armand, if I'm not mistaken...
Wildflower: Wow, u run with a wild crowd
Sylvia: [scratched her chin sheepishly] I was young n rebellious at the time, wanting to prove a point to my family, tho I ended up getting disowned. Bt I think I remember this Armand telling me tht he was gonna go look for Ryder wen he gets out. Tht dude is fiercely loyal to him, evn wen Ryder ditched us. He refused to believe Ryder abandoned us, saying tht he believes Ryder left us for a reason. Last I heard frm him was a yr aftr Hater bought me, saying tht he's located Ryder n he's on his way to meet him. Not sure wat he's doing now.
Wildflower: U think maybe this Armand character might...?
Angel: Have found the body and healed Ryder somehow...
Sylvia: Oh no, oh no, this is terrible. We gotta warn Hater n Wander somehow. Where are they again?
[as they were saying, Wander was dwn at the beach with Awesome collecting shells]
Awesome: I remember when I used to do this with my sisters.
Wander: :) So they weren't always as bad as you say they were?
Awesome: When not doing their constant makeover attacks, that is. -__-
Janet: U think u got enough for ur mom's latest beach art, Wandy?
Wander: ^^ All the pretty ones too.
[out of sight behind the palm trees, something slithered ard within the shadows]
Janet: [felt it] I feel something. Something dangerous coming. Awesome, bring Wander bk to his home. I'll go send my feelers out to chk it out
Awesome: :o ... yes ma'am.
Wander: ... (feels the presense too, unnerved) (allows the shark to scoop him up and carry him back to the house)
[Janet sent out her feelers to find the person, bt before she could get a good glimpse at it, it spread out large tentacle-like appendages n squirted out some sort of ink-smog all ovr her feelers, temporarily blinding her, then slithered as quick as lightning towards the direction of Awesome n Wander. Without warning, it came out of the shadows wen the duo was just a mile away frm the house, moving swiftly abt the shark n stabbed his bk with one of its tentacles, injecting venom into his system]
??: I shall be taking zat, merci beaucoup~ (heart) [catches Wander in mid-air n zooms away with him, leaving Awesome to his fate]
Wander: No, no, no, no! HATEY!
Awesome:...ugh... >< (faintly hears Sylvia)
??: Calmez-vous, mon cherie. We wouldnt want u to fall n hurt ur pretty little head, non? [stabs a smaller tentacle into Wander's neck, injecting something to knock him out]
Sylvia: [heard the commotion n ran out, only to see Awesome on the ground turning blue n out of breath, picks up her communicator] Peepers! Get the medic here! N get Hater ovr here quick!! [turns to Awesome n propped his head] Hang in there, Fish Face, dont u die on me...
Awesome:...s-syl...? (can barely see her clearly)
Peepers: We're on our way!
Sylvia: Just stay awake, Fish Face, stay awake [smacked his face to keep him awake]
Wildflower: [ran out too, looking ard] Wandy? Wandy~!! [starts sobbing]
Peepers: (Arrives with the medic, as well as Hater)
Angel: (also appears) Wander...??
Hater: [followed behind Peepers] Where's Wander?? Wat happened??
Sylvia: I dunno, sir! He was just gone! N Awesome, he...
Wildflower: Janet? Janet, can u see Wander? Where is he?
Janet: I'm sorry (cough cough) I lost him...! I just heard him screaming n someone speaking in a weird accent n then they're not there anymore. Tht guy did something to my feelers, I... I can't see (cough cough)
Angel: Just hold still...(helps clean her feelers)
Medic: (has the vemon out of Awesome)...Venom from an Octo, no doubt...
Sylvia: D-Did u say an Octo?
Hater: Wat? U knw something abt this?
Sylvia: I... hv my suspicions [told the guys abt Armand]
Awesome: (coughs)...It was him, huh...? He took Wander...don't know where, though...
Sylvia: Save ur strength, Fish Face. We better get him inside [sees a huge dark fog started to cloud ovr the horizon]
Wildflower: Janet, r u OK? Wat r u doing?
Janet: Its not me... (cough cough) I hear something, some kind of ship
[so saying, a large ship shaped like a sting ray came to view, its exhaust pumping out the dark fog as if trying to conceal itself asit made its getaway]
Awesome: (allows Sylvia to assist him)
Peepers: :O ...?
Awesome:...That's Armand's ship!
Hater: Ar-who? [doesnt knw tht Armand was Ryder's poker buddy]
Sylvia: U knw Armand? [doesnt knw it either]
Awesome: Poker buddy...of Ryder...that ship must be where Wander is now...
Janet: Oh no u dont! [stretches out her vines to try n grab the ship, bt there was an electrical force field ard the ship n it shocked her] AAAGGHH!! [some of her vines were fried as they fell bk]
Wildflower: J-Janet!!
[the fog got thicker n thicker as the ship made its getaway, n flew off into space]
Hater: [growled] U guys go bk in the house n stay there! I'll follow him! [runs to the ship to get his space moped n gave chase]
Peepers: SIR!
Angel:...(glares, then follows after Hater, producing transparent wings to keep up)
Hater: [sees Angel following behind, bt doesnt stop him as he chased aftr the ship, which was getting further n further in the distance]
[once inside the house, Sylvia, Peepers n the medic helped Awesome into bed for him to recover]
Sylvia: I can't believe it... Armand actually made good with his word. He actually found him n they're together again. N as poker buddies no less...
Awesome:...Yeah...he's THAT loyal...but...it's not the first he...did things with Wander...(looks ashamed, since he havent been there for the nomad that one night)
Sylvia: Did...things? U mean Wander was raped by him besides Ryder?
Awesome: From what I recall Wander telling me, they were all drunk on one Poker night, Armand had been in the bathroom being sick, Wander was just trying to help, and...I don't think I need to finish that statement.
Sylvia: And Ryder didn't do anything to stop him...? Tht bastard [spoke thru gritted teeth]
Awesome: Yeah, when he found out, all he did was punish him...(is trying to stay awake)...
Sylvia: Punish Wander...? Tht's just...
Medic2: I'm sorry, Miss Sylvia, bt he needs the rest. I've given him some anti-venom drips to neutralize the venom n stabilize his condition, bt we must let him recover
Sylvia: [nodded reluctantly] U better be better the nxt time I see u, Fish Face [leans in to kiss his forehead before she left the room]
Awesome: (slowly settles into sleep)...
Wildflower: I hope Hatey-poo and Angel can get to him. I dunno wat I'd do if...
Sylvia: [wrapped her arms ard the small Star Nomad] I hope so too...
