Prologue
-BOOM!- The sky roared in a strident bellow as the ground shook violently.
Two pairs of fast legs moved down the grimy surface, trying to out run the things that overtook his shadows. He made a swift turn to the right and made his way down a long, gloomy path. His energy was slipping but he kept on as he panted. Speedily, he leaped behind an unknown object and halted in his tracks as he lowered the level of his body silently. He glanced up at the violet and golden swirls that engulfed the sky and then knelt still.
The four shadows began to get closer and yelling unpronounceable things to one another. He closed his eyes tightly as he could hear the shadows getting even closer.
One of the shadows laughed as he exclaimed something in some weird gibberish. The other shadows joined in and talked amongst themselves for a split moment.
A shadow went over to where he was kneeling and wagged his finger at him with a large smirk. He shouted his discovery to the others and they all ganged up behind him.
At that moment, a strange appearing vehicle burst into the scene. A person with a spacesuit and helmet on jumped out extending his hand to the first shadow that was mentioned. He got a good grip of the thing and pulled him into his vehicle.
The other shadows dashed over to the guy as he shot two of them with a laser, making their bodies spew out blue substances and falling flat on the ground. The remaining two growled venomously and approached the man quickly. The guy flipped backward then, grabbing both of their heads, bashed them together instantly.
The two fell down onto the ground as the guy leaped into his vehicle and flew off in hyper speed.
The first shadow looked over at the guy quizzically, "Who are you?" he asked in his own language.
The guy could translate his speak perfectly and answered, "I am Numbuh 1."
