Akito and the Loonatics

chapter 118

A screen popped up to show there were now missiles headed right for them. Melvin must have recovered somehow, how conveniently unfortunate.

"I know what to do and I know just how to do it!" Rev smiled. "Lexi, you can use your brain blasts like you did to clobber Melvin's spacecraft!"

"Yeah!" Estelle smiled.

"Yeah..." Lexi sounded confident again. "If I could do it, well, twice by accident, then I can this time on purpose!"

"WHAT!?" Duck squawked. "You're leaving the fate of our planet in the hands of some joystick jugglers!?"

"If you don't shut up right now, I'm going to brain blast you into next week!" Akito glared at Duck.

Lexi tapped at the keyboard and tried to zap the missiles on purpose, but for some reason, it did not work.

"Focus, Lexi," Estelle coached. "Just pretend it's like the first time! Kick some martian butt!"

"You got it, Coach." Lexi answered, both playfully and seriously. She then did a lot better than she did before and focused on her new motives so she could save their home.

Simon had a small newborn smile when he saw the destruction.

"Wahoo!" Jenny cheered. "Go, Lexi!"

"Almost there," Lexi grinned as she continued. "Just one more target to take care of!"

"Great." Estelle smiled.

"Let's take care of this one together." Lexi said to the brown-haired girl.

Estelle smiled and ran to her side. "Oh, yeah!"

"Where is the kaboom?" Melvin glared at his screen. "There's supposed to be a worldwide, earth-shattering kaboom!"

"Checkmate." Lexi and Estelle smirked, pushing the final button together and sent an attack on Melvin's ship.

"Oh, Melvin is sure going to be in for a surprise." Akito smirked.

Melvin escaped his ship with Sirius, the ship exploded, but it did not harm the robot dog or martian, but it would be very unlikely they would cross paths again. The Loonatics cheered once they had won once more.

"Yeah, I knew they could do it all along." Duck folded his arms.

"Ace, may I please hurt Duck for every time he lies?" Akito asked while glaring at duck.

"He'll end up in a coma." Ace commented.

"Can I at least brain blast him?" Akito asked.

"Uhh... Okay." Ace allowed it.

"Great." Akito smiled.

They met in the invention room and Rev promised to never sneak in again until he saw a blinking red button. "Hey, what does this button do?"

"Please, don't touch my--" Tech tried to stop him.

It was too late, Rev pushed it, only to get trapped in a cage.

"Will you now stop touching his inventions?" Estelle asked.

"Uh... I-I'll try..." Rev smiled innocently.

"And I thought it'd be you guys I'd have to worry about using the inventions as toys." Tech said to the kids who were a lot more mature than they had appeared to be.

"By the way, where's Akito?" Lexi asked.

"Eh, he's busy punishing Duck for lies." Ace said.

"It is about the time." Felicity agreed.
