Chapter 08

The team were in a van that was being driven by Gopal's dad, Mr. Kumar. They were heading to a place that was a bit far from the village.

"I can't believe we're going to see the new TAPOPS base! And it's now on Earth!" Yaya said. "Yeah, I know right. What's great is that we don't have to be there always, we can easily go home to our families." Ying replied.

"I don't think so, commander asked us to bring our bags with packed clothes that will last for a week." Gopal sighed. "At least it's only for a week! We used to stay in the station for months. The homesick feeling was real." Ying frowned.

"I've heard that the new base is temporary only since the one in space is still being repaired." Yaya commented.

While Yaya, Ying, and Gopal were conversing, Lia was at the right side of the van, doing her school works. She was so busy that she didn't notice Boboiboy, who just arrived upon her.

"Looks like someone's busy." He remarked, sitting down beside her. Lia suddenly raised her head up and saw him, "Oh shoot. Sorry sorry, have you been sitting here for a while?"

Boboiboy shook his head, "Just now. And it's okay, I know how it feels to juggle school and superhero duties. You'll get used to it." He smiled at her. "Yeah, thank you." She slightly bowed to the leader.

"So you brought all of your school things?"

"Yeah, since commander said that we'd be staying for a week, I feel that I need to bring everything. Although we're on a short break since there's a school holiday so the load is not that heavy, I assume." Lia replied.

Boboiboy nodded, just smiling at her.

"I'm feeling a bit nervous. I'm going to meet more members of TAPOPS." Lia said. "What if they don't like me?"

"Hey don't think of that." Boboiboy placed a hand on her shoulder. "For sure they'll like you. I asked commander to tell them about you so that they already have an idea about you."

Lia sighed in relief, "Well that's somehow a relief. Thanks a lot." She leaned back at her chair. Boboiboy did that as well.

"Oh by the way, where's Fang?" Lia asked. Boboiboy stood up and looked everywhere, "There he is." He pointed to the back as Lia stood up to see where he was pointing. Fang was on his phone, doing something. It made him smile a bit.

Boboiboy and Lia looked at each other, then Lia spoke up. "You look happy."

Fang looked up and saw the two, he furrowed his eyebrows. "And that's none of your concerns, thank you very much." He proceeded in doing things in his phone.

The two just sat down, with Lia shrugging and Boboiboy rolling his eyes. "Never mind about Fang, he just reminds me on why he is that annoying." The boy's remark made Lia laugh.

The van has arrived in a forest, with Ochobot calling out for them. "Hey guys, we're already here." Everyone started getting their things, as one by one stepped out from the van.

Gopal and Mr. Kumar talked for a bit before Mr. Kumar left to go back.

There was a cave nearby which surprised all of them. Ochobot and Sonobot lead them inside the cave, there was huge station. Everyone, especially Lia, was in awe. Once they got inside the station, they were greeted by commander KokoCi and admiral Tarung.

"Ah, they're here!" KokoCi exclaimed. "Welcome to our new station! TAPOPS-U!"

"Wow!" Everyone reacted, making Tarung smile. "It may not be the same as the one in space but surely, this is better." Then he spotted Lia, "Ah, you're the new girl. Lance Corporal Lia, I assume?"
