CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

Stargirl: Are you okay? LOL Thanks!

doggirl: Thank you! LOL!!!!! That was halarious!

zs: Thanks! *hugs* It's my weakness cause it takes me forever to write them!

TEASER TIME!
--------------------
Maria nudged Cassidy's arm. "On Sari, it is tradition for a princess to give a kiss to her hero."

Tech blinked. Cassidy blushed. "Well... since I am a princess, and you did save my life...." Cassidy reached up and softly pressed her lips on Tech's cheek.

Tech blinked again. 'Come on, Tech, say something! Don't just stand there looking like an idiot!' He gave her a goofy, lop-sided smile. "You're welcome."

Lexi and Maria giggled, having seen Tech's tail shoot straight up in the air.
---------------------------------------------

And, I'd love to tell you who the Starzian cheif is, but it will ruin the suprise for "Goodbye, Acmetropolis," So, you're gonna have to wait!

stargirl · Human

Great teaser, now I'm all excited! lol! Fantastic story!

Duck: Oooooo! Tech and Cassidy sitting in a tree!

Tech: don't even think about it!

Duck: *laughs nervesously and runs out of room*

Me: *giggles* He's right though!

Tech: Don't you start!

Me: *sinks lower into chair*

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

YAY! LAST CHAPTER!
*crickets chirping*
Me: Bunch of comedians..... Anyway, this is the result of me listening to "What I've Been Looking For" from HSM for the past, what has it been? About, 4 hours... Yeah...

Chapter 6: "Best Friends Forever!"
"That was amazing! Thank you so very much! How can we ever repay you?" King John exclaimed.

"Don't worry about it, Sir. It's what we do." Ace said.

"And you do a mighty fine job of it, too. Which is the reason that I am going to knight you all."

"Knight?" Lexi repeated, slightly confused.

"Yes, and then, you shall no longer be considered, 'outsiders,' but instead, a part of the palace 'family.' Special protectors of Sari."

"Wow! Thank you, Sir." They all replied.

First was Tech, because he bravely protected Cassidy. Then Ace, Lexi, Rev and Slam. When he came to Duck, Duck put his hands up, saying, "Please, no hits to the head."

Later, Maria nudged Cassidy's arm. "On Sari, it is tradition for a princess to give a kiss to her hero."

Tech blinked. Cassidy blushed. "Well... since I am a princess, and you did save my life...." Cassidy reached up and softly pressed her lips on Tech's cheek.

Tech blinked again. 'Come on, Tech, say something! Don't just stand there looking like an idiot!' He gave her a goofy, lop-sided smile. "You're welcome."

Lexi and Maria giggled, having seen Tech's tail shoot straight up in the air.

King John cleared his throat. "Shall we get you all settled in here, Aurora?"

Cassidy glanced back at the others. Her and Tech's eyes met, and they seemed to communicate silently. 'What should I do, Tech? I really don't want to leave you guys..'

'Well, then, tell your father. I'm sure he'll understand.'

Cassidy turned to her father. "Father? I.... I can't."

"But, why?"

"Well, I.... they're my friends.... I don't want to leave them."

King John paused in thought. "Hmmm.. I guess it was a little too much to shove at you at once..." He nodded to himself. "I'll tell you what, you can go back with your freinds for the time being, and just think about it for a while. You can make your decision later. I mean, if it's all right with them." He looked at Ace.

Ace smiled. "It's fine with me, Sir." He glanced over his shoulder at the others. "What about you guys?"

Rev was first to speak up. "YAY!! I was worried that we weren't ever going to see you again! I was going to miss you so badly if you stayed here! But I'm sooooooooooo glad that you'll be staying with us for a little longer!"

Tech was second. "I am, too."

"Me, three!" Lexi added.

"Four!" Slam grumbled in his usual way.

"I guess so....." Duck muttered.

Cassidy stared at them in disbelief. "So... you guys want me to came back?"

"Of course we do." Lexi said. "You've been with us so long that it wouldn't feel the same."

Cassidy smiled. "Wow.... nobody's ever said that to me.... ever..."

"Well, it was their mistake." Tech said.

Cassidy's smile grew bigger. "You guys are the best friends I have ever had. Thank you."

"Awww..." Slam scooped everyone up in a bone-crushing bearhug.

"Slam.... choking, not.... breathing..." Duck wheezed.

Slam put everyone down. Cassidy's and Tech's eyes met once more. 'Thanks, Tech. I couldn't have done it without you.'

'Of course you could.'

.ORANGE TRIANGLE.

"So, have you gone from super-genius to amateur Prince?" Duck questioned as he walked into Tech's lab later that day.

"What are you talking about?" Tech asked.

"Tech, you're the smartest guy I know, don't play dumb. It's obvious that you still have a thing for that girl."

"Are you complimenting and trying to make fun of me at the same time?"

"No, well, yes, but that's not the point. The point is, there's obviously only one reason why Cassidy wanted to stay here."

"And what would that be?"

"She likes you."

Tech froze. "What.. whatever gave you that idea?"

"The way she kept smiling at you. The fact that she didn't hesitate to give you that kiss..."

"So what? It doesn't matter anymore. Cassidy already has a future husband. It's too late to change anything."

"Maybe... maybe not."

"What do you mean?"

"If you tell her, and she feels the same way, then maybe she can do something about it. If you really love her, then it's worth a shot, right?" Duck then decides to leave the room.

'Yes, yes it would...' Tech thought.

--------------------

Meanwhile, somewhere in the shadows, nearby the palace, stood a dark figure. "That so-called princess and her pesky friends may have been able to escape me this time, but next time, they won't be so lucky....."

THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

And, just so that you understand the connection between this story and "Goodbye, Acmetropolis," I have a little trilogy that I call my, "Sarian Trilogy," cause all three stories have all or most of it taking place on Cassidy's homeland. So, in this trilogy is "Gotta Go My Own Way," "Goodbye, Acmetropolis," and "Return To Sari."

COMING UP NEXT:

The Loonatics tackle the nightmare of.... BABYSITTING! What madness and chaos will persue? Find out in, "Double Trouble!"

ALSO COMING TO A FORUM NEAR YOU:

"What Loonatic Are You Most Like?"
Yes! The ever-popular fan-quiz! So, are you scarcastic like Duck? Or super-smart like Tech? Maybe you're like Ace, cool and calm under pressure, or more like Cassidy, nervous and under-confident. Either way, have fun!

STAY TUNNED FOR:

A sneak peek into "Goodbye, Acmetropolis!" (zs: if I know you, you'll defenitely want to stick around for this!)

zadavias_spirit · Out of This World

Long story short: You know me.
And,.... Duck.... HELPED?!?!?!? *faints from surprise*
LOL, JK. Another well-done story.
And how many stories do you plan to put in this fan-season? 13? More? Less?

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

I thought so... LOL!

Yes, he did. Why do I keep having him help Tech instead of, say, Rev? You'll find out soon enough!

Thanks muchly! *hugs*

Uh..... let's see, I have:

Double Trouble
Goodbye Acmetropolis
Duck's Christmas Wish
A Valentine Memory
Time Race (Parts 1, 2, 3)
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions
Loonatics, Ahoy!
Return To Sari
Lost In Darkness

And probably some others that I can't remember at this time.....

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

So, this is how it goes, bold and italicized words are the "story plot,"
just italicized words is a song ("I Stiil Believe" by Hayden Pannettier ), and normal words are parts of the story. Either parts of the story plot separate different scenes, or lines will (Exp: ---------)

Okay? Great! Enjoy!

---------------
The Loonatics are disbanded when the villians suddenly stop being evil......

Somehow I know I will find a way

"As you may have realized, the villains have been very quiet lately. Unfortunately, the government of Acmetropolis has decided that they no longer need you seven." Zadavia paused. "You're being disbanded."

"What?" Ace blurted. "There must be some sort of mistake!"

To a brighter day
In the sun

"I wish there was. But, there isn't."

Rev tried to cheer everyone up. "Looka on the bright side, at least we'll still be together!"

Somewhere I know he still waits for me

Zadavia shook her head. "Everyone but Cassidy. I believe that her father will be wanting her to return to Sari."

"But, he can't do that!" Cassidy excliamed, almost in tears.

"Unfortunately, he can. I'm sorry. And I will miss you all imensely. Zadavia... out."

Someday soon he'll see
I'm the one
-------------------
Cassidy and Tech are both heartbroken when they learn that Cassidy must return to Sari, her homeland.....

I won't give up on this feeling

Cassidy faced Tech. For a moment, she couldn't breathe. She forced herself to say something. "Well, I... I guess this is goodbye."

And nothing could keep me away

'Come on, tell her.' Tech's mind urged, but all that came out was, "Yeah... I guess so." Without even thinking about it, he stepped up to her and wrapped his arms around her.

Cause I still believe in destiny

Cassidy hooked her arms around Tech's neck. "I don't want to leave, Tech." She sobbed.

"I don't want you to, either. Don't worry, everything will work out." He tried to sound hopeful, but inside, he wasn't so sure.

That you and I were meant to be

"Goodbye, Tech."

"Goodbye, Cassidy."
------------------
Even though they are millions of miles apart, they do not forget each other.......

I still wish on the stars
As they fall from above

Cassidy sighed and leaned on the window ledge, looking out her bedroom window. She silently plucked off each petal untill there was none left, then opened her hand. She gently blew them off her hand and watched the petals float away on the breeze.

Cause I still believe
Believe in love

Just then, a star flew across the sky. Cassidy closed her eyes and wished in her head:

'I wish upon a star tonite
A star so lovely, star so bright
A special wish for me,
A simple wish, to be
With my friends, just one more time
To be with Tech, so in my mind
I wish upon this star tonite
A star so lovely, star so bright'
-------------
I know what's real cannot be tonight

Tech sighed. No matter how hard he tried, he could not concentrate. He glanced up at the shelf above him. He reached up and pulled down a picture frame.

Although it may hide
For a while

The picture was of all eight of them, Ace, Lexi, Duck, Rev, Rachelle, Slam, Cassidy, and himself. He smiled at the memory of their vacation.

With just one touch love can pop you fears

Tech's ears pricked up. 'What the...?' For one fleeting moment, he could have sworn he heard Cassidy's cheerful giggle.

Turning all your tears
Into smiles

Tech sighed and put the picture back on the shelf. 'It's no use, Tech. She's gone now. You can't change anything. She's probably married already.'

It's such a wonderous feeling
--------------
And when chaos strikes again, the Loonatics must band together once more to prove that not all good things come to an end. Soon, Cassidy and Tech are reunited....

I know that my heart can't be wrong

Cassidy turned around in suprise. "Tech? Is... is that you?"

Tech smiled and stretched out his arms. "The one and only."

Cause I still believe in destiny
That you and I were meant to be

Cassidy gave a happy squeal and ran to meet him. Tech laughed and hugged her back. "I see you haven't forgotten me yet."

I still wish on the stars
As they fall from above

'How could I forget you?' Cassidy giggled at the thought. Was he not the one who saved her life on several different occassions? Was he not the only one who fully trusted her when King John exposed her as a princess, heiress to the throne? Was he not the one whom she loved? The one whom she continuously thought about? "Oh, Tech, I thought I'd never see you again."

Cause I still believe

"I promised you we'd meet again. I never break my promises."

Believe in love

But, what Cassidy thought was to be a simple rescue of her father and sister turns out to be a life-or-death battle against her older brother, Andrew. A battle that ends with the Loonatics making the ultimate sacrifice, the loss of a team member.......

Love can make miracles

"Step away from my sister, Tech!" Andrew threatened.

"Never!" Tech stepped in front of Cassidy protectively.

Change everything

"No, Tech! Please, no! He'll kill you!" Cassidy begged. "Let me go instead. Father and Maria still need help!" Cassidy began to walk towards her brother.

Tech grabbed her arm. "No, Cassidy. I won't let him hurt you."

Lead you from the darkness

"But, Tech, it wouldn't matter anyway." 'If I can't live my own life, I don't want to live, period'

"No, Cassidy! Don't say that! You matter to me more than anything else in the world. And, the others, they miss you."

And make your heart sing

"Really?"

"Really, Cassidy. I love you."

Tech put his hand behind her head and brashly pressed his lips to hers.

Love is a river
When you fall

Andrew blinked, shocked and sickened. A tear fell from Maria's eye, but King Johnathan was furiated.

It's the the greatest power of all

When they broke apart, Cassidy took deep breaths, trying to steady her racing heart.

"Well, since neither of you can decide who's gonna sacrifice themself for the other, I will!" Andrew fired.

Cause I still believe in destiny

Right a the last minute, Tech pushed Cassidy out of the way. The blast hit Tech, sending him into the wall.

That you and I were meant to be

Seeing Tech's motionless body, Cassidy gave a horrified scream. "TECH!"

I still wish on the stars
-----------------------
As they fall from above

The Loonatics stopped, dead in their tracks, at the sight of Cassidy, cradling a seemingly lifeless Tech, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Cause I still believe

Rev was the first one by her side. "Oh my gosh! Cassidy? What happened?"

"Easy, Rev, give her some air." Ace said somewhat-calmly.

Believe in love

"My brother..." Cassidy hiccuped inbetween sobs, "he...he killed Tech."

Yes, I still believe
Believe in love

Now, Cassidy is desperate to stop her brother and return to Acmetropolis. But, Cassidy's father won't let her. And when he finds out about Cassidy and Tech's love for each other, he decides to do whatever it takes to keep them apart.....

Maria began to crack under her father's stern gaze. "Well.... she... she said that she was... in love with somebody.."

"Who?" He demanded.

Maria gulped. "Tech."

"WHAT!? This is an OUTRAGE! A Sarian cannot fall in love with an Earthling! It is unheard of!"

"But, father, she's not like us, she grew up on Earth. She has a free spirit, she shouldn't be forced into our rules. It's unfair to her!"

But King John seemed not to hear her. "She has a place here, and she still has to learn it..."

"No, father, please! You mustn't do this to her!"

"Now, Maria, I just don't want her to be hurt..."

"I know, I don't, either. And neither does Tech. In fact, if it weren't for him, Cassidy would've been killed! Tech has regeneration powers, Cassidy doesn't. Tech loves Cassidy, you heard him tell her so yourself!" Maria left the room.

'It doesn't matter, because I just don't trust the boy....'

But, Cassidy won't be alone in her battle. Maria, her older sister, is determined to help her...... along with the other Loonatics......

"Poor Tech, he's so lonely without her.." Lexi said.

"We've got to help Tech get Cassidy back! He's going to hurt himself if he doesn't stop and take a break!" Rev exclaimed.

"And he's not going to take a break until Cassidy's back here." Duck added.

"What do we do?" Slam asked.

"Zadavia said that we can't interfere with King John's actions, for fear of war. So, the question is, what can we do?" Lexi added.

Ace frowned. "For once guys, I don't think I've got a plan."

...And Zadavia...

Zadavia was shocked at.... King John's actions. "You're spying on your daughter?!"

"Yes, but.."

"But this is wrong!" Zadavia cut him off. "....You're invading her privacy!"

"She's my daughter..." He began.

"Yes, but you have no right to do this! This only proves my heart right. Cassidy really is better off staying in Acmetropolis." Zadavia stood up and left.

But will it be enough? Or will Cassidy give up first?

"Wait!" Cassidy called after them. "There's something I need you to know.." They stopped and looked at her. "If.... If Tech doesn't make it.... I'm going back to Sari...."

stargirl · Human

WOW!!
*Faints*
Great. Fabulous. Fantastic! I love it!
Also when are you going to do A Valentine Memory? I really like the sound of it. Is it the same one you put the plot up for on FanFiction.net?
Anyway, fantastic work!
*faints again*

zadavias_spirit · Out of This World

Excuse me for a moment...

Spoiler

Ahem.
Yeah.
It was great.
Bye.

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

Stargirl: Thanks! *hugs* I am aiming for somewhere near Valentine's Day. I was originally going to put it up after "Double Trouble," but then I decided it would make more sense to do it after my Christmas one. I changed it slightly, but it's mainly the same story.

zs: *falls over* THANK YOU THANK YOU! *tackles you*

I hope you guys realize that your opinions and replies are the reason that I'm still doing this, right? These comments really made my day! Thanks sssoooooo much! I was sick today, so I've been a little 'down,' and when I read these comments I couldn't help but smile!

HUGS FOR EVERYONE! *hugs*

stargirl · Human

Awsome, I can't wait!
I hope you get better soon and I'm glad we made you smile!
*hugs back*

zadavias_spirit · Out of This World

Akira_Cat · Your local cat

*Gives you a vurtual tissue*

I really need to read these stories. The Loonatics are being disbanded!? No way no way no way NO WAY! It can't happen! I shall stick you all together and make the government continue your legacy!

*Wraps the Loonatics including Cassidy in 500 tubes of super-glue and 300 rolls of sticky-tape.*

biggrin

Now there's no way that you can ever split up!

Duck:

Yeah! But now we can't move or get out of this mess!

*The Loonatics wobble for a moment until they topple onto the floor.*

Everyone:

OW!

Lexi:

Okay. This is uncomfortable.

zadavias_spirit · Out of This World

Shweet idea!!! Or we could do this!
*begins poking all villains with safety pins*
Weathevane: OOOOWWW!!!!

Me: The Loonatics made me do it!

But all those sad emotions aside, great teaser Cass! I'm definately gonna look for the others!

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

Wow.... you're crying. And I haven't even gotten to the really sad part.....

Thanks muchly! *hugs*

doggirl2772 · Out of This World

and more sad stuff to come? Oh noes!!!! Or yay... not sure really... weirdface

CassidyCoyote · Techie 4 life

Me, too. I especially cried while I was reading, "Love Me or Hate Me." It was so beautiful.

Yes, most of the story is supposed to be sad. But the ending, well, you'll see!

kari bunny · Out of This World

*gasp*this story was so cool cassidy and it had its sad moments.

zadavias_spirit · Out of This World

I just watched "Gotta Go My Own Way" on youtube, so I finally know what the song sounds like.
To me, it reminds me of "Beautiful Soul." Meh.
