A Hero & A Weapon

Hard Choices

by SSJ04 Mewtwo

He sat at the pilot's chair, thinking. The X weapon, with Caelum's suggestion, was thinking.

'Fighting is what I do best,' he thought. 'It's in my nature to fight and be a soldier and kill my enemy. But shouldn't I have a chance to be more?' He sighed. He wasn't designed to want more than to be the soldier he was.

'Starting resistance groups on our home world and Lexicon would be more satisfying than fighting these criminals here on Earth.' His heart ached though at the prospect of leaving his Lexiconian princess. He slammed a fist into the side of the console in rage. He didn't know what he should do!

"Why did you put that idea into the X weapon's head?" Emma asked.

"because, he wasn't meant for any of this. He can't possibly do what that Lexiconian does here on Earth. She doesn't kill like he does and she can't tame that nature of his to kill that which is a threat. He'll do something that she can't stop him from doing."

Emma sighed, but then received a transmission. "It is from resistance group 001...by Calcious,"

"What?" he asked and read. "Shit! She can't possibly think she can do that!"
The message told of Calisto's plan to try and modify the X weapon serum in order to use it on herself so she may destroy her niece and then take over the rest of the galaxy.

"I'm going to have to convince him to come with us. He'd do more good helping rid the galaxy of Calisto than helping Zaniah here on Earth," Caelum said. Emma could no longer disagree with her lover. It appeared that Calisto wanted the whole galaxy and she was willing to do anything to get it.

Three days, she had been sick for three days! To top it all off, her father had kept giving her speeches about how bad Calceon was for her and that she needed to break it off with him. He also had told her of the fight that he and Calceon had that had drove him away, not to return for the rest of the time she was stuck in bed.

She quickly got on her clothes and headed out into the kitchen to get some breakfast. she ran out the door before her father could say one word to her. She had been tempted to transform into WordGirl and fly off, but she decided that would be suspicious so she ran as fast and as hard as she could to school.

He stood on the roof, still lamenting about the decision he needed to make. He then heard the door opening and a missile in the form of Becky crashed against him.

"Ooooh, I've missed you," she said hugging him. "What are you doing up here so early?"

"Thinking," Calceon replied. "You seem better today."

"Listen, I don't care what my father says, you're..."

"They want me to help in the resistance against your aunt back home," Calceon let out. "Caelum said that they could use my help and I'm seriously considering it."

"What?" she asked in shock.

"Face it Zaniah," he said, using her real Lexiconian name, "I'm a soldier, not some cop with a costume and super powers. I kill for a living. You just throw your villains in jail. Eventually, something is going to happen and I will actually kill and that will end things for me on this planet."

"You're leaving then?" she asked in a tiny voice.

"I haven't decided yet," he said and Becky held on to him as if he were a stuffed animal and she was a small girl that was afraid of the dark.

"Please, don't go," she sniffled.

"Becky," he whispered. He rubbed his face into her hair, not able to stand her being upset. "What makes you think I should stay? I can't be what you are, I never could."

"You're mine though!" she cried out and held him even tighter. "I don't want to let you go because I love you."

"How can you love a soldier that is design for one purpose and that's to kill. Your father hates me and it was only because the other villains were scared shitless that I didn't kill Leslie!"

Isabella smirked, seeing the scene playing out before her on the monitor. "You may begin," she said to Two-Brains.

"Hahaha! That fool doesn't realize that his device puts out a signal that I can track!" he said and preceded to turn several dials.

"Are you sure that's WordGirl?" Big asked.

"My children are good at find out secrets like that," Isabella stated.

"Then why don't we expose her?" Granny May asked.

"Do you think that anyone would believe us?" Isabella asked and silence fell in the room.

"The lexinite canon is ready to fire," Two-Brains said in glee.

"Indulge yourself, doctor," Isabella said and the doctor laughed as he pressed a button.

"I don't want you to go. I need..." Becky began but her eyes became glassy.

"Warning! High levels of lexinite radiation detected!" the computer chirped from his wrist device.

"Shit! Where!?" he shouted.

"Scanning," the computer responded.

"Never mind that, beam us out of here!" he shouted and the two disappeared, not knowing that they had a spy.

'Lexinite? That's WordGirl's weakness. Becky is WordGirl!' Scoops celebrated. He ran back inside, but was stopped by two other students he knew very well.

"You saw a little too much, Ming," Tobey said.

"You aren't about to expose my best friend are you?" Violet asked and Scoops gulped. She didn't like that tone she was using. His eyes widened in horror, seeing that Tobey held the remote.

"We all have to keep secrets, Ming. And we are willing to make sure Becky's secret stays a secret," Tobey continued.

"What are you going to do, huh?" Scoops asked.

"Just summon one of my robots to come collect you and take you to Tubing's lab."

"Professor Tubing is in on this?" Scoops asked and Tobey rolled his eyes.

"Yes, he is. However, he will tell your parents that you have a highly contagious condition and only he can run proper test on you. You'll be stuck in that lab until we can be sure you won't expose Becky's identity. Now, will you try and tell the press, or will you behave?" Tobey asked.

"You wouldn't dare," Scoops challenged and Tobey put his finger on the button.

"Try me," he said darkly and Scoops gulped.

Ok, ok! I won't go exposing Becky's true self," he said and ran for the nearest bathroom in order to empty his bladder.

"I apologize if I was too...intense," Tobey apologized.

"No, you needed to scare Scoops and you did very well, and I like the way you say 'robot'," she said and started nibbling on his ear and the boy genius shivered in pleasure, enjoying Violet's treatment.

"Phew," he said, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Becky was in the tank, soaking in the artificial Lexiconian DNA. It had been a lethal dose of radiation, but he had caught in just enough time so that she wasn't going to die. He turned, hearing Caelum entering the ship.

"What happened?" Caelum asked.

"Lexinite poisoning. I can't leave her, Caelum. The villains have a new lexinite weapon and some, no, one of them wants her dead and I think I know who. I'm sorry, but I must stay here. If she were to be killed I'd never forgive myself."

Caelum sighed. "You were ordered to protect her before our world fell. Ok, but I must give you this...Calisto has gotten her hands on the X weapon formula. She wants to use it on herself."

"Shit!"

"We are going to go back to Decimal and free our world. Good luck here," Caelum said.

"And to you, my friend," the X weapon said and Caelum vanished in the light of a transporter. Calceon sighed and continued to monitor Becky's condition. He wouldn't be informing her father about this incident.
