Chapter 4: An Alliance Rises

"What do you mean by that statement?" Green Rocket asked. Vader simply just rolled his eyes in disgust, "Well two months ago Rocketlix went missing and I tracked him to this universe. So I decided to build a portal so I can go and retrieve him, but then Mr. Edgelord over there crashed through and pushed us both in the portal before I could fully calibrate it." He informed as he pointed at Nack. "Well the UN thought you were building something to try and take over the world again so they sent me to stop you since a certain Faker  wasn't around," Nack denoted giving a cold glance at Green Rocket, "Hey! I was busy!" Green Rocket snapped back. "Anyway I always get the job done, which I intend to finish," Nack continued. "Oh ya? I'd like to see you try!" Vader remarked. "Is this what it's like back home for you?" Blossom asked Green Rocket as Nack and Vader get ready to fight again gritting their teeth as both stare at each other with anger in their eyes. "You have no idea," Green Rocket shrugged. Then he walks up to both of them separating them, "Alright! That's enough! Listen Vader, we will help you get Rocketlix back and if we do that, will you leave?" he proposed. Vader stands there for a few minutes and then replies, "Alright, and how do you suppose we do that? We have no leads and evidence to go off of and besides, it's not like you have any idea of where he might be." "Maybe not where, but I can take a guess who he is with," Green Rocket answered, "I bet Midnight tricked him into thinking he could get the power to kill me and so he agreed to join him."

"Who's Rocketlix?" Buttercup asked. "He's Green Rockets evil robotic clone built by Vader and specifically designed to kill Green Rocket," Nack answered. Then he looks at Green Rocket and utters, "Hey Faker! Are going introduce us to your friends or what?" "Oh,oops! My bad! Sorry about that girls," Green Rocket chuckled as he scratched the back of his head. "It's okay Green Rocket, and besides this is interesting to watch," Blossom assured. "I guess that makes sense, anyways, this here is Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup and together they are the PowerPuff Girls Z!" Green Rocket continued.

"PowerPuff Girls Z? Hmph! They sound and look like rip offs of the originals," Nack mocked. "Hey! What do you mean by 'rip offs of the originals'?" Buttercup snapped. "He means the original PowerPuff Girls," Green Rocket answered, "But Nack, just because they may not look like it, they are quite formidable." He added. "You've seen them in action?" Nack questioned. "Well yea, I've even helped them with defeating some of their villains, right girls?"Green Rocket answered as he glanced at Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, "Oh yea, he did help, like when we faced off against Fuzzy Lumpkins, he was there to deliver the final blow after Buttercup hit him with a energy blast from her hammer," Blossom added in. "So you see Nack, they aren't rip offs, they are just as formidable as the originals," Green Rocket smirked. Nack simply rolled his eyes and grunted, "Hmph! Whatever."

"As fun is this to watch, I would like to get to finding Rocketlix and getting off this rock!" Vader butted in, "Please tell me you some sort of base of operations around here." "As matter of fact, we do! Follow me!" Green Rocket remarked as he motions everyone to follow. Later at the lab, "So this is your base? Impressive,"Vader states as he is observing the machines in the lab. "Pretty sweet digs, am I right?" Green Rocket commented while having both hands on the back of his head and smile on his face and winks. "So, this is where you have been hanging out, huh Faker?" Nack butted in. "You make it sound like a problem Nack," Green Rocket insisted. "Well considering the fact you have been here for the past two months and haven't gotten any results proves that this is a waste of time. There are other universes to protect you know," Nack responded. "Well I can't just leave the problem here unfixed, you know that," Green Rocket snapped back.

"There they go again," Momoko remarks as Green Rocket and Nack continue to argue. "These two remind me of my brothers," Kaoru adds. "Let's just hope they stop soon," Miyako orated.

"What's going on here-oh," Professor Utonium asked as he and Ken walked in the room, "Who are these two?" He asked. "My Arch nemesis Vader and my friend/greatest rival Nack," Green Rocket answered. "Hmph, lets get one thing straight, we are not friends," Nack responded as he walked off. "So, you are the scientist in charge here? It is a pleasure to meet a fellow great mind," Vader interjected as he shakes hands with the Professor. "Yes I feel the same, but what are you doing here exactly?" Utonium asked. "Green Rocket had agreed to help me find something of value to me in exchange for me leaving this sad excuse of a universe," Vader replied. "Hey! Our universe is not that bad!" Ken shouts at Vader and then points to Nack, "Then what is your business here?" "I'm only here to make sure Vader doesn't do anything suspicious, I am not here to help," Nack retorted. "But, your a superhero aren't you?" Miyako asked. "Whatever gave you that impression?" He mouthed with one eyebrow raised. "Well, from the way Green Rocket talks about you, you seemed like a hero," Kaoru added. "Is that right?" Nack questioned as he gave an intense stare at Green Rocket who began whistling looking out a window. "Hmph! Well, I'm no hero, just someone keeping a promise that's all," Nack finished as he walked out of the room.

"What's with him?" Momoko asked. "That's Nack for ya, he prefers to work alone and is not exactly the 'friend group' kinda guy. However he is a nice guy once he opens up to someone, but that's a rare case if any," Green Rocket divulged.

"If you don't mind, I'm trying to work here!" Vader snapped as he was analyzing more of the lab. "Ok, ok calm down man, sheesh!" Green Rocket replied. Then him and the girls walked out to the lobby, "Vader is very pushy," Momoko remarked. "Ya, that dude has a bad attitude," agreed Kaoru. "Eh, Vader is a man that looks at data and lives by it and nothing else. However he is a man of honor, so he's got that going for him,"

Green Rocket added, "Also I do need a favor, you see I kinda need a place to crash since I'm from a different universe and all..." he chuckled while scratching the back of his head. "Wait? Where have you been staying this whole time?" Kaoru questioned. "Um... I've been moving from rooftop to rooftop, and recently I was resting on top of the Professor's lab, and well...people are getting fed up with a quote 'homeless freak' on their roofs." "Aw...that's so sad! Why didn't ask us earlier for a place to stay?" Miyako inquired. "Well it's just I didn't want to be a bother, since we had just met, so yeah," Green Rocket informed. "Well you could still ask dude, we would have helped," Kaoru asserted. "Yeah! You can stay at my place if you want," Momoko added. "Or my place is cool too, your choice," Miyako suggested. "I would help, but sadly my place is quite full." Kaoru remarked. "Hmm...Well, since Kaoru is out of the question, that leaves Momoko or Miyako..." Green Rocket ponders. As he thinks, Momoko and Miyako eagerly wait in anticipation. "Alright! I have made my decision, I shall stay with Momoko. If that's ok with your parents?" Green Rocket said finally." I can explain it to them and they are nice folk, so they would be happy to help." Momoko answered cheerfully. "I'm happy for you! It's nice that you are getting a place to stay," Miyako beamed.

Later that night at the Professor's lab, lights blink and buzz on and off on machines in a room as Vader continues to work on finding Rocketlix. "Vader? Are you still up?" Ken asked. "Finding my asset is top priority, I have no time to rest." Vader declared. "But you need sleep! You can't think straight if you don't get proper sleep!" Ken told Vader. "Hmph! Whatever, wait, why are you being kind to me despite not knowing me?" "Because I want to, choice is a part of being human." Ken responded, "and besides, why do want to conquer the world?" he then asked. "Because, I wish to bring the world to order and peace by ruling with logic and reason alone." Vader testified. "A world without freedom though," Ken inputted. "Freedom leads to chaos, chaos leads to destruction,and destruction leads to death. By eliminating freedom I would have brought peace and order to the planet." Vader concluded. "But you don't think you could try and use your intelligence for good and try to help people." Ken proposed. "You can stop trying to convert me to become a good guy, my mind is made up and I have chosen my path. Besides not everyone would listen to my science anyway, there would always be those who thrive on chaos and carnage." Vader affirmed. "Well I still wanted to try, anyways, me and dad will see if we can aid you in the morning in finding your asset." Ken spoke as he waved and headed back to bed. Vader watched the young boy walked out of room and then went back to work. Though he began to wonder if the kid was onto something....he shrugged it off, "I have chosen my path, I can't change it now", Vader thought to himself as continued working throughout the night.
