Marauder is a creation of Jerimy Bass. *** Writer's Note: This is a sequel to the story "Mataxian Mayhem" which is listed in the Space Rovers Zeles section *** Lost Pack --- "The Day After" The scene opens in the RR Mission Control Medical ward. Professor Hubert, Dr Marauder and Kyra are examining Tru, a beagle/cocker spaniel puppy that was a clone created by the Mataxians. Fritz, a former prisoner of the Mataxians watches as he holds his cloned daughter, Adie. Hubert (looks over Tru) I haven't got the slightest idea why we can't turn her back to a normal cano-sapien form. Marauder (look at datapad): Tru is a perfectly healthy puppy, but the repeated testing of those Filios silver gas balls has somehow affected her on the molecular level. I've never seen anything like it before Fritz (growls slightly) Those stupid Mataxians . . . Hubert (pets Tru) I'm afraid we have to wait until the affects of the Silver Balls wear off. It could be anytime from a few days to a few months. The affects wore off the Lost Pack a few months after the silver balls were used on them. Fritz (nods and picks up Tru) Thank you, Professor, Doctor. (looks at his watch): It's getting late, I got to get over to the Maddog Law offices. Hubert (confused) Why are you going there? Fritz (calm) I'm working to get full and legal custody of Tru. The best family lawyer in the firm is Abby Davenport. Hubert (nods) I understand, Tru is like a daughter to you. I'm sure you'll win the case with Abby on your side. Maruader (giggles): Abby may be a bit snobby, but she is a dynomite attorney Hubert (smiles): We'll take Tru and Adie to our daycare facility, good luck Fritz! Fritz (smiles): Thank you The scene shifts to the downtown Atlanta office building of the Maddog Law firm. Miss Grimm, the firm's human secretary, leads Fritz into Abby's office. Abby was sitting at her desk looking over a stack of papers. Fritz (looks at Abby) Mrs. Davenport? Abby (looks up) You must be Fritz. Please sit down, and do call me Abby. Fritz sits down at a chair that is in front of Abby's desk. Abby (looks at the papers) I looked over your request to become Trudy's legal guardian but you left out who her parents are. Do you know who they are? Fritz (nervous) I rather not say. Abby (stern) You have to list her parents if you want full custody, even if they are no longer alive or in prison or.... Fritz (sighs) All right, I will tell you. Her parents are Ultra and Judy of the Lost Pack. Abby (writes down): Her real parents are Ultra and Judy.... (shocked): ULTRA AND JUDY???? You can't be serious! Fritz (sad, nods): I am serious. One of the reasons I want to be her legal guardian is to protect her from them. Abby (stern): Ultra and Judy are wanted criminals on Earth and all over the universe! Fritz (nods) So I heard. Tru is a sweet puppy. I don't want Ultra or Judy's influence on her. I also want the identity of Tru's parents to be a secret and kept out of the records. Abby (nods): Well, the family court is a closed session, and I can petition to have the court records sealed after the trial Fritz (nods) That will be best. Abby (sternly): The judge will have to know the whole story, about your relationship with her and how Tru was ... well.... created Fritz (nods) I understand, Abby. I heard there are ex Lost Pack members among the Road Rovers, . . . Do you think they can help? Abby (unsure): Well, if they know you, they could help verify your testimony Fritz (sighs): Years before our group was discovered on the asteroid, Ultra had me dragged out of the villiage and ordered my death. I was left for dead when the Mataxians snuck in and grabbed me. Everyone in the Lost Pack thinks I'm dead. Abby (smiles): Well, the four we have on Earth have changed. They are no longer evil, so I know they will help us. We'll go to Mission Control and meet them. In a private room at Mission Control, Rico, Tungstun, Princess, and Monica are sitting at a table. Abby walks in followed by Fritz. Rico, Tungstun, Princess, and Monica are in shock as they see him. Princess (shocked) Fritz? Monica (shocked) You're alive? Rico (shocked): Holy precoles! Tungstun (points): Fritz? Am I seeing a ghost? Fritz (smiles a little) I am very much alive. Abby (smiles): It's true, Fritz was recovered during a raid on the Mataxian home world Princess (excited): But how? How did you survive after all those years? Fritz (explains) Not long after I was shot, that's when the Mataxians came to the asteroid. They took me with them to be used a guinea pig. Rico (growls): Those dirty gringos!!! Monica (happy): Who cares how you got here! We're all so happy to see you again! Fritz (nods): I need your help to get full custody of one of the clones. Tungstun (stunned): Clones? Rico (growls): Those hombres made clones out of you? Princess (growls): Like they made from MY DNA? Fritz (sighs): They tried to make more clones with the Lost Pack DNA years after the first set for use in lab tests. Only two survive now. My daughter and the one I am trying to get full custody for. Abby (sternly): That's why we need your help! Your court testimony will help him get full custody! Princess (nods): Count me in! Rico (nods): Si! ME too! Tungstun (nods) I will too but who is the parents of this clone? Monica (nods): Yeah, who is the father's DNA? Fritz (sighs) Ultra and Judy. Rico, Tungstun, Princess & Monica (together): WWHHAATTT???? Fritz (nods) Yeah. Tru is a nice puppy and I don't want their influence on her or know she exists. She is like a daughter to me and I can't bare to be separated from here. Princess (concerned): Aren't you taking a risk with this? If Ultra finds out you are alive, he will try to kill you again. Rico (growls, nods): Si! Ultra already wants all of us dead! Tungstun (growls): Seems he's a very sore loser. Fritz (sighs) I want Tru protected from Ultra. Princess (nods): I agree! Let's hope he never finds out! Meanwhile, on the Doomstar, Judy is listening to news reports on the comm. system. While the other Lost Pack members are working at their areas on the bridge. Willian Reporter (on the comm.): The leader of Mataxia has been arrested and will be going on trial for his crimes. All prisoners in the labs have been set free. Among them, a cano-sapien named Fritz, that was captured when the Lost Pack was still on the asteroid they were on. Two more cano-sapien clones have also been found among them, as well as many Willians and other Alliance citizens..... Judy (spits out coffee): FRITZ??? Could it be? Zoe (confused) Who is Fritz? Judy (surprised): Fritz was one of our original members from before the Space Rovers found us. King (growls): He was never like us. He liked humans and once served them. Ultra (growls): That's right! It's why I didn't miss him when he died! Lady (confused): How is he still alive? Dizzy (crazy laugh): YEAH! How did Fritz come back to life? (scary voice): Maybe he's a ZOMBIE MONSTER! READY TO EAT OUR BRAINS OUT!!! Lucky (shakes head): You need professional help.... Ultra (growls) He is not going to survive this time. King (growls) YEAH! Lucky (upset): Why is it so bloody important to get revenge on this... this... whatever his bloomin' name is? Ultra (growls) He and other human loving canines that were on the asteroid sabotaged any attempt for us to escape there and return to Earth for revenge. Sly (sad): Sounds like a loyal canine to me... Ultra reaches over to slap Sly, but Judy stands between them Judy (pleading): He wasn't there, Ultra! He doesn't understand! Ultra (upset): Judy! Stand aside! Judy (pleading): He's OUR son, Ultra! Our own son! Ultra now turns his back on them Ultra (stern): I don't care how HE feels, I'm the leader and I say we get him! King (growls): Yes! How dare Fritz be alive! Lucky (concerned): It said on the news report that there are two more clones too. Ultra (growls): I don't care about any more clones those mad scientists grew in their test tubes... I WANT FRITZ DEAD!!!! Fritz goes down to the play area of Road Rover Mission Control to pick up Adie and Tru. Gila Monster is in charge of watching the children for the day. Gila Monster (swinging his 2 x 4 in the air): And THAT'S how to bash any nasty gooberoos that come to git yous! Any questions? Tru barks excited. Adie is a little bit amused. Adie (stutters) Cool . . . Princess (upset): GILA! Stop teaching these puppies about violence! Gila Monster (proud): But that's all I knows, that and eattin' bugs, and these pups does that anyway! Princess (shocked): WHAT???? Adie (looks up at Princess) Hello . . . Princess (smiles): Hello. I'm Princess Adie (little smile) I'm Adie, (points to Tru) That's Tru. We are both clones. Gila Monster (confused): That's funny, yous two don't looks like clowns to me! Fritz (explains): Not clowns, clones. They were created by the Mataxians. Adie was created partly from my DNA. Gila Monster (nods): I gits it now Fritz (picks up Tru) Poor Tru. The Mataxians tested silver balls that turned her into a normal canine on her. Even the transdogmafier can't turn her back. Gila Monster (upset): That's so sad.... Maybe one of our magical friends can fixes Tru up! How's about that goomer with the metal arm that eats crawdads? Fritz (confused) Who's that? Princess (nods): You mean Amos Doggie! Why didn't I think of that? Gila Monster (smiles): Cause yous ain't as smart as I is! Princess (shakes head): Oh brother.... The scene shifts, to Amos's Swamp in southern Louisiana. Gila, Princess, Fritz, Adie and Tru are riding in a boat towards Amos's place. Fritz (looks out): How long is it to get there? Gila Monster (sniffs): It ain't far! I smells crawdad bisque! Princess (giggles): Figures you'd be thinking about food all the time! Gila Monster (nods): I is hungry! Above them some of the Lost Pack Members are watching them in a cloaked shuttle. King (points, growls) There he is. Ultra (growls): This time Fritz dies for sure! Fire the missile! A missile begins to fly towards the motorboat but Fritz sees it. Fritz (grabbing Adie and Tru) INCOMING!! Princess glances and sees the missile coming, she 'freezes' time and sets everyone out of the boat just as time 'unfreezes.' Everyone jumps into the water as the boat explodes. Gila (in the water): HEY! What dingledork blew up our boat? Fritz (growls) I can guess who. Fritz (holding Adie and Tru), Gila, and Princess swim to shore. Ultra, Judy, Lady, and King appear. Ultra quickly grabs Fritz by the throat. Ultra (growls): I thought you were dead, and now you WILL BE!!! The Gila Monster bonks Ultra with his 2 x 4 and grabs him by the throat. Ultra lets go of Fritz as he falls to the ground. Gila Monster (angry): How does it feel, you UGLY BAG OF FUR!!! Adie and Tru goes to Fritz's side. Judy stares at Tru. Judy (shocked): Wait! That puppy... I can sense that it..... could it be..... Tru whines at Fritz. Fritz (pants, growling at Ultra) It's okay, Tru. I'm fine. King punches the Gila, making him let go of Ultra Gila (evil grin): So, YOUS wants some lumber too? As Ultra leaps at Fritz, Princess 'freezes' time, then grabs Tru and Adie and runs towards the swamp as time 'restarts'. Fritz sees Princess running and follows after her. Gila (big grin): It's clobberin' time! He swings his 2 x 4 at Ultra, King and Lady, stopping them from following Judy towards the swamp. Gila (grins): Who wants some FIRST? Ultra (growls): You really think you can challenge all three of us, you ridicious looking reptile? King (growls): We're all well trained fighters! Gila (hisses): Prepares to git de-railed, yous bunch of fuzzy spaced out dingledoofs! Lady (growls): What's a dingledoof? Gila (hisses): Looks in a mirror, lady, and yous will sees one! As King, Ultra and Lady pounce on the Gila, Judy continues to follow after Princess and Fritz. Ultra, Lady and King back away from the Gila. When the three put on gas masks, Ultra throws a silver ball at Gila, when the strange smoke clears, Gila is still the same and madder than ever Ultra (shocked): Impossible! The gas in that ball should've turned him back into an animal! Gila (swings 2 x 4): I ain't no mammal, yous dumb furbag! Yous is gonna git it now! Gila smacks Ultra, Lady and King so hard, all three fly into nearby trees. Gila (laughs): Hope yous likes the view from up there! Judy corners Princess and the two puppies. Princess (growls): I won't let you kill these puppies, you maniac! Judy still stares at Tru. Suddenly Tru begins to glow. The affects of the silver balls are beginning to wear off. Princess (confused): What's going on? When the glow disappears, Tru is in a puppy-sapien form, laying on the ground. Adie (in shock) The silver things that that the blue people tested on her must of worn off. Judy looks at Tru and points her weapon at Princess. Judy (growl): Don't move, Princess! I should've killed you years ago, you weak kneed wimp! Princess 'freezes' time again, she grabs Adie and Tru and runs away from Judy as time 'unfreezes' Princess (running): Gotta get to Amos's house! As Judy turns to run after Princess, Fritz tackles her. Judy and Fritz roll on the ground until Judy is on top of Fritz, with her laser pistol pointed at his head. Judy (growls): Who is Tru's parents? Answer me or I'll shoot a new hole in your head! Fritz (growls): That is none of your business. Judy (angry): She's my daughter, isn't she? TELL ME!!! Fritz (growls): You are never going to have her. Judy (furious): So she IS my daughter! I WANT HER!!! Judy punches Fritz and then runs after Princess Judy (running): I'll kill Fritz later, I have to have my daughter! Princess gets closer to Amos and Hannah's home with the two pups. Amos, Hannah, and Bindy come out of the house. Bindy (confused) What be goin' on? Princess (shouts): The Lost Pack wants to kill Fritz and take these puppies! Amos (upset): Amos be not likin' dis! Hannah (growls): Come into the house, we'll protect you! Adie (whimpers) I'm scared. Hannah (calm): Don't worry, we'll protect you Judy comes into view and she is very angry. Amos walks over to greet her Amos (greets): Hello there! I be Amos Doggie and .. Judy (shouts): CAN IT GRAMPS! I WANT MY DAUGHTER!! Fritz catches up with her again. Fritz (growls) You are not having her. I took care of her most of her life and soon the courts will give me full custody of her. Judy (growls): Over my DEAD BODY!! (evil grin): Or YOURS!!! When Judy points her laser gun at Fritz, Amos turns it into a bouquet of daisies Judy (shocked): WHAT THE....... Amos (smiles): Amos tink all ladies be needin' flowers Fritz (growls): I am not going to have your or Ultra's influence on her. Judy (angry): I love my son Sly! Now that I know I have a daughter I want her with me NOW!! Judy runs towards the house but bounces off the force field Hannah (growls): You're not welcome in my house! Ultra (on comm. badge, growls) Get ready to be beamed up, Judy. (angry) We are leaving now. Judy (on comm): NO ULTRA!!! I WANT MY DAUGHTER TO BE WITH US!! Ultra (on comm): FORGET HER!!! MY SHIP IS NOT A NURSERY!!! Judy (upset, on comm) But Ultra . . . Judy disappears in a transport flash. Hannah (nods): Good riddance! Fritz (growls) I can't wait for the court hearing so I can make sure Tru never gets in their paws. Amos (nods): Wit one of dem Maddog girls on your side, Amos say you can't lose! Hannah (nods) I'm sure you will succeed. No court will give a child to a criminal. Princess (looks up in the sky): I wonder if we've seen the last of her. On the Doomstar, Judy is at her station, crying. Dreadnaught (teasing): Vhat's dee matter? You lose your puppy? Before Judy can slap Dreadnaught, Ultra does Ultra (furious): Say ONE MORE word to her and I'll break you in HALF!!! Dreadnaught runs away Ultra (sternly): Forget her, Judy, she's better off without all of this. Ultra walks away. Sly comes over to Judy's side. Sly (concerned) Mom? Judy (crying): Oh Sly!! Judy hugs Sly, weeping uncontrollably. Sly hugs his mother, comforting her Sly (calm) It will be okay, mom. Judy (crying): Sly, you have a little sister, and she's on Earth.... Sly holds his mother close Sly (sad) We will be together some day. Judy (crying): Ultra knows he's her father too. (upset): I can't believe he could be so heartless! Sly (calmly): Don't worry mom. I know you well enough to know that when you set your mind to it, you can do anything Judy (growls) I don't want her with that creep. Sly (calmly): Mom, getting angry won't help. We need careful planning, and I'll help you anyway I can. Judy (sad, hugging Sly) Thanks, son. Lucky (walks over): Judy, are you alright? Judy (sad) I found out there was another clone with mine and Ultra's DNA. Lucky (shocked): Crickey! Does Ultra know about this? Judy (sad) He doesn't want the ship to be a nursery. (growls) And what's worst a creep is going to get custody of her. Lucky (sighs): Bummer, so the kid's on Earth, right? Judy (nods) Yes, for now. Lucky (sits beside Judy): I feel for ya. I know if I had a pup and was separated from it, I'm be bloody sad. Judy (growls) And I don't want her with that traitor Fritz! Lucky (whispers): Better not let Ultra hear ya plotting, he'll probably make you marry that awful bugger Dreadnaught! Judy (cries) I don't know what to do. Jackie (sits beside Judy) I know how you feel, Judy. I have a daughter too and I haven't seen her since she was a young puppy. Lucky (shocked) I didn't know that, Jackie. Jackie (sad) My master was angry that I was in love with a wolf. He shot both of us after we led him away from the den with my daughter in it. My mate died. I was found by a Road Rover and taken away from the area and saved me. The Rovers couldn't find my daughter. Judy (sad) That's so sad, Jackie. In a courtroom a few days later, Abby is working to get Fritz custody of Tru. Abby (in front of the court): And in conclusion, your honor, since Fritz has been the only family Tru has ever known, and with her biological parents running from the law, you must award custody to Fritz! Fritz is nervous waiting for the judge's decision Amos (pats Fritz on the back): Worry not, Fritz! Amos say you be gittin' Tru! Fritz (nervous) I hope I am getting her. I can't imagine living without her. Hannah (stern): Please calm down, Fritz. Princess (smiles): With my testimony, and that of Monica, Rico and Tungstun, I'm sure the judge will see things your way. The judge comes back into the court room Judge (stern): It is decision that I reward custody of Trudy to Fritz. Abby (jumps up for joy): YES!!! Judge (sternly): Mrs Davenport! No further outbursts like that in MY courtroom! Abby (embarrassed): Sorry, your honor Judge (bang gavel): This court is adjourned. Fritz runs over to Tru and Adie and hugs them both. Tru (happy) I get to stay with Fritz, YAY! Amos (smiles): Now dere be a happy ending! Hannah (smiles) What are you going to do now? Fritz (happy) I'm going to spend a few more days on Earth, then I am going to the Space Rover Challenger. Princess (smiles): Sounds great! Good luck to you Bindy (looking at Tru and Adie) You be meeting my friend, Victor. Adie (confused) Who is he? Hannah (smiles): Bindy has a crush on him! Tru (smiles) Fritz told me that going there would protect me from the mean people. Hannah (smiles): You'll be safe there Adie (upset) They hates daddy and hurt him. Amos (growls): Dat dere Judy lady do look mean! Bets she don't eat no grits in dee mornin'! Adie and Tru (confused) Huh? Hannah (smiles): It's a cajun thing Fritz (smiles at the puppies) I saw a park on the way here. Do you pups want to play? Tru (confused) What's a park? I had seen one before. Adie (confused) I haven't seen one either. Princess (smiles): It's a big roomy place to run and play! Bindy holds Adie and Tru's hands Bindy (excited) Bindy will show you. Bindy, Adie, and Tru disappear. Fritz (shocked) What the? Princess (upset): NNOOOOO!!!! Hannah (sighs and shakes her head) Bindy . . . Amos (happy): Bindy be jist usin' her powers, no need to worry, Princess Princess (relieved): I'm SO afraid of the Lost Pack taking revenge on us. Fritz (sighs) I got to keep a close eye on Tru now. Judy knows now that she exists and won't stop until she has her. Princess (sadly): Sorry I freaked out Abby (smiles): It's okay, Princess. Hannah (nods): We have to be careful, the Lost Pack is clever and their goal is to conquer Earth. Fritz (nods) I know. Amos (smiles) Lets join the youngins in dee park. Princess (nods): Good idea! The adults walk over to the park and watch the kids play on the play equipment. Amos (smiles): Day look like day be havin' a good time! Fritz (smiles) They are. This is the first time having such. They had it hard first couple of years. Adie slips off the jungle gym but her fall is slowed down. Bindy (concerned) You be okay, Adie? Adie (nods) I'm fine. I slowed my fall. Fritz walks over and pick his daughter and looks her over. Adie (embarrassed) Dad . . . Tru and Bindy giggle. Princess (stunned): Wait a minute, I thought Bindy used her magic, how could Adie slow her own fall? Does she have some sort of special powers? Fritz (smiles) She can speed up or slow down herself and others. I don't know how it works. Adie yawns. Fritz (sighs) It takes a lot out of her when she uses her powers. Princess (nods): I understand, she's very young to be using any special abilities. Bindy (excited): Bindy be young, but Bindy know how to do magic! Fritz (holds Adie) That's why I tell her not to use them. The scientists forced her to use them. For some reason, they wanted a way to prevent the use of time powers. Princess (shocked): WHAT??? Fritz (sighs) They started doing it months ago. She was weak a lot during that time. Adie clings to Fritz. Hannah (sad): Poor girl, she's still afraid. Fritz (comforting Adie) There, there, Adie. You are safe now. (to Princess) The scientists were angry when the other clones escaped. Princess (growls): They were after my Kole! Fritz (nods) I saw the creations of both sets of clones. I was in a cell in view of the lab and the first clones that were created. When they were still young, they were moved to a different lab. Kole was the most important one to them. Princess (interested): You know that Kole has my DNA in him? Fritz (shakes head) No. I didn't understand what the scientists were saying until a universal translator was put in. Princess (looks at Tru and Adie): So, Tru is Ultra and Judy's clone, what about Adie? Fritz (sighs) All I know, she has part of my DNA. Princess (interested): Do you have time powers? Fritz (shakes head) No. I can create force fields for a limited time around an object or person. Princess (thinking): Then I wonder where she got her time powers from.... Adie sleeps in Fritz's arms Fritz (whispers) I don't know how many Lost Pack members were taken from the asteroid for DNA samples. Princess (sighs): I wonder if there's any more of us out there in space. All of the ones that came to earth.... all but a few of us.... (starts to cry): were put to sleep by the humans.... Fritz (sighs) I doubt there are others out there. I was taken by them not long after I was dumped outside the village when everyone thought I was dead. The scientists kept me for observation because they knew I wouldn't be missed. Princess (sad): So, the Mataxians have been experimenting on us even before the Space Rovers made their first trip into space. Fritz (nods) They were observing us on the asteroid. Princess (sad): Those awful people! How could they do this to us? Fritz (sighs) I just don't know. . . Princess (upset): But they did that to other races too, other beings from all over the universe! They were freed when the planet was liberated. Fritz (nods) I saw it all happen. I was in a cage with Adie and Tru. The Space Rovers came just in time to save us. Princess (sad): It's no wonder Adie and Tru are so scared. It could take a long time for them to recover Fritz (sighs) Yeah and the fact the Mataxians were going to kill us when the planet was invaded. Princess (shocked): And they call US animals! Fritz (nods) Yeah. I hope those scientists go to trial. Princess (giggles): If Commander Zeldor doesn't stomp them first! For a stegosaurus, he has really huge feet! Fritz nods as Gila come over with Kole. Kole (excited) Gila told me there were more clones. Gila (looking at them): They is cute little tikes, for clones, that is Tru (walks up to Kole) Hello. Kole (smiles): Hello there! I'm Kole Tru (smiles) I'm Trudy but people call me Tru. (points) That is Adie. Kole (nods): Pleased to meet you both. We have much in common... I'm a clone too... I'm Princess's cloned son. Adie yawns and slowly wakes up. Kole (smiles): There were three of us together, me, Queenie and (sighs) Sly, but Sly is on the Doomstar with the Lost Pack and Queenie is at the Space Rover Academy. Fritz (nods) Those blue-goons who tortured you will be punished soon. Adie (sad) I wish I can find out who my mommy is. They probably got rid of the information. Gila (brightens): Waits a minute! I's gots a solution! My pal Otto! His computer mind could scan that DNA of yours and finds out who's it is! Adie (excited) Really? Gila (nods): Yup! I knows he can dos it! Adie (excited) Yay! Princess (nods): That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Gila (proud): Cause yous ain't as smart as I is! Princess (rolls eyes): Er..... yeah.... Bindy (excited) Bindy will git him here. Bindy raises her arms. Otto now appears Otto (confused): This is not possible. By my calculations I am approximately fifty two point one miles from my last previous position Amos (smiles) My Bindy brunged ya here to be helpin' her friends. Hannah (shocked): BINDY!! (looks at Otto): Otto, I do apologize for my daughter's actions but we do need your help Otto (nods): Apology accepted. What is the task you want me to perform? Princess (points at Adie) We need you to scan Adie's DNA. Otto (nods): Affirmative. I can cross reference DNA samples to all major computer systems on Earth. I will proceed.... scanning....... A blue beam comes out of Otto's eyes and scans Adie. Otto (sternly): Scanning..... (shocked): AMAZING!!! Fritz (confused) What's amazing? Otto (sternly): Confirmed...... Adie's DNA consists of elements of your DNA as well as ..... Princess's Princess (shocked): WHAT???? Fritz (surprised) Huh? Otto (sternly): The DNA patterns are a 99.7% match. Princess (surprised): So.... Adie is..... my genetic daughter? Adie (confused) She is my mommy? Gila Monster (surprised): Whoa! Yous is a mommy... again? Kole (growls): Those Mataxians are capable of anything. I wonder who my genetic match is Otto now scans Kole Otto (sternly): Processing..... Fascinating Kole (surprised) What is fascinating? Otto (looks at Fritz): It appears that you are also Kole's genetic father! Princess (shocked): WHAT??? Gila Monster (confused): What is yous talkin' about? Fritz is so shocked, he is unable to speak. Adie (looks up at Fritz) Daddy . . .? Kole (looks up): Daddy? Fritz sits down still in shock. Princess (stunned): So..... Adie and Kole are OUR children, Fritz..... er..... well...... Gila Monster (worried): Do this mean what I thinks it means? Fritz (calm): Princess, I think we need to talk Princess (nods): Go ahead, I want Gila to hear this too! Gila (confused): Hears what? Fritz (calm): Princess, neither of us could help what the Mataxians did with our DNA. I do feel a responsibility towards Adie and Kole, but I don't even know you. You seem nice, but I know you are involved with Gila. I have no intentions of breaking the two of you up Princess (smiles): I understand, Fritz. I feel the same way. I do love Kole and I want to be a mother to Adie too, but my heart belongs to my Gila! Gila (smiles): Of course it does! But this is gonna takes some gittin' used to Fritz (nods) Same for me. Princess hugs Adie and Kole Adie (excited) I love you mommy. Adie and Kole now hug Fritz Tru (confused) What is going to happen when we go to the Challenger? Fritz (smiles): Well, you and Adie will get to go to school and make friends with kids your own age Tru (confused) What if Adie's mommy wants her here? Fritz and Princess look at each other, looking confused Princess (look down at Tru): Tru, you and Adie have spent most of your lives with Fritz. I think you and Adie will be better off staying with him Fritz (smiles): We can set up days when Adie can visit Earth and Kole can visit the Challenger. Princess (nods): I'd like that. Fritz (looks at Princess): I was going to have a camping trip with Adie and Tru before leaving for the Challenger. How about you, Gila, and Kole can come with us? Gila (excited): YES!! I LOVES CAMPIN'!!! Princess (happy): Sounds wonderful! Kole (smiles) That sounds like at good idea! Gila (drooling): All of those tasty bugs to eat.. Princess (angry): GILA!!! Gila (embarrassed): Oh yeah.... sorry.... Adie (looks disgusted) Bugs? Ewww gross! Princess (nods): I agree! Gila's NOT going to be eating bugs..... ARE YOU GILA???? Gila (scared): When yous git that look in your eyes, yous scares me, dear.... Everyone now laughs, except for Gila and Princess.. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
