"Are you ready for later on?" Tim asked.
"Yeah," Becky replied laying in Tim's arms as the two sit on the roof of the school eating lunch.
"I know the lexinite experiments have taken their tole on you." he comforted pressing his cheek against hers. She side enjoying his closeness.
"I'll be ready to finally clean up Copperhead Road."
"Good." he said and kissed her first on the cheek and then softly on the lips. she sighed enjoying this softer, gentler side of him. She did like when he stoked her pilot light,but there were times like now that she enjoyed his softer touch.
"Why did we come up here to eat lunch anyway?"
"Violet has been acting strange ever since we had that obstacle course incident with Two-Grains."
"She's a strange human to me, so you are going to have to be more specific than that."
"She spent a lot of time with Tobey that day. She's got it in her head that there's more to him than just building robots in order to destroy the city." she explained.
"Are you saying that Violet thinks there is some good in him?"
"That's exactly what I'm saying."
"That girl is too strange."
"I'm used to her. Remember, I was on this planet far longer than you." she teased.
"Yeah yeah, and what the hell are we going to do about the wonder twins?"
"Not to mention the team of Ms. Question and her sister Phantasma."
"Great, troubles keep piling on."

"This is unacceptable! How can those damned Decimalians be beating our new class of ships!" Calisto ranted.
"Empress, they've found a source of lexinite and it's given them the advantage." her advisor answered.
"Where in the galaxy is this lexinite!? I thought we'd secured all sources of lexinite!"
"We did, but apparently there was another source found."
"I want that source found now!"
"We've believe that the source might have been found on Earth, but we can send..."
"Ready my ship! I shall go to Earth myself and secure the lexinite myself!" she ordered.
"Yes, empress,"

"Get'em!" a gang leader barked and guns fire off at the two heroes.
"How did I let this part of the city get so bad!?" WordGirl asked.
"All the thugs ran out of the developed part of the city and hid here. They probably got choked out by all the super villains running around the city." the X weapon answered kicking the gun out of the closest gang banger's hand.
"I hate guns!" she shouted and avoids another dozen or so bullets.
"Why didn't the monkey come with us?"
"He's been acting strange all day...,I don't know what's wrong with him...look out behind you!" WordGirl warned and the X weapon hits the ground as a machine gun goes off.
"Fuck off!" he shouts and kicks the guy in the stomach from his laying position sending the guy down to the ground. The sounds of police cars alert the gang bangers that they were about to be arrested. The leader raised his gun and fires but WordGirl avoided it and gives him a swift kick to the head knocking him out.
"Phew that's the rest of them." she said dusting herself off.
"C'mon, we've gotten them all, the police can handle it from here." the X weapon said and the two took to the sky.

"Alright, why did you want me to stick around?" Tim asked Huggy. The two were in the spaceship talking while Becky was in bed sleeping. The monkey points to something on a console and Tim looks at it.
"Shit, if I'm reading this right a royal ship is in the outer solar system and is heading right for us. You think it's Calisto?" he asked the monkey and he nodded. "Great, the fucking lexinite! It fucking led her her! Well, if the empress wants to kill her last living relative, then she can come down here and try it." Tim growled.

"Well?" Calisto questioned harshly.
"We have now confirmed that your niece is here on Earth along with the renegade Captain Huggy Face. We also have found the X weapon and the source of the lexinite. They are all in the same place, empress." the officer answered.
"Excellent, I'm taking a team down there and I am going to claim the lexinite, and get rid of my sister's daughter, once and for all!" she vowed.

'What is wrong with me? How could talking to Violet have confused me so? How can she just pick apart a person's soul like she does?' Tobey pondered in his room. 'That Two-Brains...what was he thinking putting us through a maze in order to find out who WordGirl is. That's not how you find out who WordGirl really is.' He sighed to himself 'Of course, Scoops has been trying to find that out for years now. Hmmm, why would Becky all of a sudden decided to start dating Tim Drakesford, a complete mystery, instead of Scoops who she's known for a long time? And why was Becky Botsford so mad about that picture of WordGirl kissing the X weapon?' he continued to pondered. He gets an idea and first grabs a picture of WordGirl, and then grabs a recent school yearbook and he scans the two pictures into his computer. He runs a facial feature comparison program on the picture of WordGirl and Becky Botsford. His widen seeing the results.
"Becky Botsford is WordGirl! How could I've missed that!? That means that the X weapon is Tim Drakesford! Yes! I have you now, WordGirl." Tobey said to himself rubbing his hands together in glee. Then a voice inside of his head that sounded a lot like Violet starts questioning him about why he was dong this. He growled to himself trying to shut the voice up.
"Leave me alone!" Tobey shouted and starts to breath hard. 'Why is she haunting me?' he wondered. He wouldn't get any sleep that night. Tim Drakesford wouldn't get any sleep either, and no one would be able to prepare for what would happen next.
