It took an hour of not patiently waiting, but once the effects of the paralyzer gun wore off, we were finally able to move again.

"This is the greatest feeling in the world," Poofy said as he then took a step and fell face first into the ground. "Dang it! Forget what I just said. I can't feel anything but my face,"

"Just stretch your muscles everyone and we should be fine," Enoch said. After taking Enoch's advice, we were finally ready to go back to chasing after Gabby.

"Alright guys, we need to figure out where we're going to stop Gabby at this time," I said to the others.

"Isn't it obvious? We have to stop her when she gets to Cantahoe. When we get there we fight her in head to head combat," Sarah explained.

"I would like to be the first to mention that some of us are not exactly built for fighting," Philip said, showing us his skinny arms.

"I don't know about you, but I'm ripped," Poofy said, trying to flex his imaginary muscles.

"Can we all just focus on trying to stop my evil sister? Once again the fate of a bunch of people is in our hands. We can't allow a blonde to be the one to massacre millions of lives. That wouldn't be good for anyone," I said, trying to get everyone focused.

"Wesley's right for once guys. We need to get our asses moving," Enoch said, agreeing with me. Everyone nodded at which point we headed towards the van so we could continue moving.

"Wesley, I need to tell you something important," Sarah told me while she got in the passenger's seat.

"Can this wait a couple of minutes?" I asked.

"Yeah... I guess it could," Sarah replied. I strapped myself into the driver's seat and entered the coordinance to Cantahoe.

"Ladies and robots please fasten your seat belts as we begin a very bumpy ride," I said to everyone in the back as I popped a pill into my mouth for some instant sickness-be-gone medicine. The van started to spin as a warp tunnel opened up.

"Heh heh... He called you ladies," Jimmy said as the van blasted its way into the tunnel.

"Wesley, I really have to tell you something," Sarah said, sounding as if she was pleading.

"Sure, go ahead. What is it?" I asked.

Wesley, I'm-," Sarah began to say when suddenly, the van exited from the tunnel, possibly being the fastest warp tunnel yet. Sadly, the van ended up inside an electrical storm. We were going down.

"Not again!" we all yelled as the van began to fall towards the nearest planet. All of a sudden, the van froze in place. A tractor beam was pulling us to safety.

"Whoever just saved us is now my favorite fleshbag in existence," Poofy said, breathing a sigh of relief. I looked out the window to see us being pulled towards a motorcycle.

"Don't go worshipping our 'savior' just yet," I told Poofy. The van was slowly being pulled towards Gabby. We had to do something before she could do something.

"Is it just me or are we most likely going to die?" Philip asked.

"I think it's time to abort mission," Enoch said.

"Let's do it," I said as I grabbed the steering wheel and turned it as hard as I could. The van started to spin hard before finally getting out of rage of the tractor beam.

"YES!" we all yelled before we realized that the van was still incapacitated to an extent. Everyone began to scream as the van plummeted towards the capital planet of Cantahoe.

"Here we go again!" I yelled as we started going faster and faster and faster.

"Wesley, I need to tell you something before we die!" Sarah yelled to me.

"What?" I asked.

"I'm p-," she said right before I got severe whiplash and went unconscious.

. . . . . . .

"Does he ever wake up?" I heard someone say as I started to stir.

"You usually have to kick him in the gut in order to get him up," I heard an all too familiar voice say. Before I knew what was happening, I felt a foot connect with my stomach, sending me into instant pain.

"OW, what the hell was that for?" I asked. I looked up to see Poofy sitting beside Gabby. I instantly scooted myself away from them, as if they were going to bite my face off.

"Well look who's awake. How's it going sunshine?" Gabby asked me in a mocking tone.

"What the hell is going on? Poofy, please explain before my brain explodes," I told him.

"Here, let me explain. Before your van could crash into the planet, I used another tractor beam to save your lives after you stupidly tried to break away. I think a thank you is in order," Gabby said.

"I don't think so. I want to know why you saved us," I said to Gabby.

"Alright then. You stupidly think that I'm trying to kill people when I'm actually trying to stop the army of the true bad guys. I think we should work together." She explained.

"If this is true than where are the others?" I asked. Gabby pointed behind me and I turned around to see my friends seated at a table, eating food and joking around. They turned to look at me when I yelled to them.

"Hey Wesley, good to see you're up," Philip said to me.

"Wesley I can't believe you're alive. I thought you were dead so I decided to be captain," Jimmy told me.

"Sorry Jimmy, but this idiot doesn't die that easily," Enoch said in my defense.

"You see Wesley; I'm not your enemy. Someone is trying to manipulate you into thinking I'm evil. We need to figure out who it is before it's too late," Gabby explained. I thought about it for a minute. Was she telling the truth? I guess there was only one way to find out.

"Alright, I guess I'll work with you, but you better not betray us," I told Gabby.

"Glad you could come to your senses. Before we head off, your girlfriend wants to talk to you," Gabby said. I looked at Sarah and made my way over to her.

"Hey Sarah I heard you had something to tell me?" I asked.

"Wesley, I've been trying to tell you this for a while now, but I need you to promise you'll act as calmly as possible when I tell you," she said.

"Alright, I promise. What do you want to tell me?"

"Wesley, I'm pregnant," Sarah answered. I stood there for a second before finally realizing what she said.

"Wait, you mean-," I started to say.

"Yes Wesley, we're going to be parents," she said with seriousness in her voice.

"Oh my God, that's amazing. Hey guys, guess what?" I yelled to the others.

"What?" they asked.

"I'm going to be a father!" I said excitedly.

"Wait just a second, you're telling me that Sarah's gonna have a baby? When did you two have the time-," Poofy began to ask.

"Don't ask questions you don't want the answers to Poofy," I told him.

"I hate to break up this sappy moment, but we have a mission," Gabby said to us.

"She's right guys. It's time to save the day once again," I said, finally remembering what we were originally doing.

"Here we go again," Enoch said.
