Today was a wild one when we were taking down Snipe's posse, however I wasn't out there helping out but instead in the Condor blasting at any Talons around us.

Finn [Coms]: That's the last of Snipe's posse!!
Aerrow [Coms]: Great shot, Finn. Now it's just snipe and us!
Luna: Ha! Bring it on~!!
Stork: Well, things might actually be looking... Good
Luna: You know it!! And he won't be able to take them all on

I spoke too soon when suddenly a ginormous fan appeared, making me look stunned while Stork sighs.

Stork: That's the last time I ever get optimistic
Luna: Guys!! Get out of there right now!!!

I watched as the fan activated and the others were being pulled in, I had to think fast and got a hold of the grappling hook and launched towards's Mags's skimmer as he caught it along with a care package attacked to it which included some cables to attach to the other skimmers. Before Mags was about to connect the cables, the fan stopped working making me sign of relief while the others got away. I retracted the grappling hook when Mags took it off, as I went to open the door to the Hangar and they flew in. We all walked back to the Bridge laughing at our success but also at Snipe's failed attempt to defeat us.

Piper: One of these days Snipe is going to come up with a weapon that actually works and then we'll be in real danger

I walked around the couch and spotted Stork lying on the couch with an ice bag over his forehead, that I smiled and lifted his head a bit and placed it on top of my lap.

Stork: Oh, it was a close enough call for me. I can still feel the breeze
Aerrow: Uh, Stork, that's not the wind

Just when Stork opened one eye, he freaked out and panicked. I looked at the bird and realized it wasn't just any bird, it was a Merbian Carrier Pigeon.

Stork: A merbian carrier pigeon
Piper: From your home Terra?

The bird dropped the scroll and left, while Piper picked it up and unraveled the scroll to read it.

Piper: It is hereby declared that, today, merbian citizen Stork is honor-bound to fulfill his duty and commence the right of ELP
Finn: Rights of ELP? What is that? Some kind of freaky ceremony? Does it hurt?
Luna: [puff her cheeks] Whatever it is, they want Stork they're gonna have to get past me first
Stork: More than you could ever imagine. For one day each year, every Merb no matter where they are, must submit themselves for the most punishing task imaginable. We must... Volunteer
Finn: That's it? What's the big deal?
Stork: But it could be anything? Like cleaning hairy snotzblat drains, or feeding the mouthless magglethrops!!
Luna: Oh no you aren't!! You are not going to have to marry some pompous spoiled rotten brat!!! You should marry someone who truly loves you for you
Aerrow: Does it have to be something terrible?
Stork: I'm not sure... Though~ I do enjoy seeing Luna be jealous if I have to marry someone
Luna: [blushes] Pah!! Me?! Jealous?! I'm not jealous!! I don't get jealous over anything

[Mags and Piper snickering]

Mags: You were jealous~
Luna: I am not!!!
Mags: You jealous little girl~!
Luna: I AM NOT!!!
Mags: Jealous~!!
Luna: [glares] STOP TALKING!!!

Mags: You were jealous~Luna: I am not!!!Mags: You jealous little girl~!Luna: I AM NOT!!!Mags: Jealous~!!Luna: [glares] STOP TALKING!!!
