Chapter 2: Encounter of the Black Ink
While Nowhere's General was trying to ensure the new black ink invaders would not come to Earth, back on the blue planet, a certain Eustace Bagge was frustrated as he was forced to be with Courage.
"Stupid dog" said Eustace as he got into his truck, and placed Courage in the back, "we're going to town to do the walk, there's nothing out here."
"Oh, I know something bad is just going to happen" sighed Courage.
As the farmer started up the engines for the struck, back in space, Comrade Black had enough of the inhabitants of the targeted planet.
"Comrades, charge!" ordered Comrade Black.
Suddenly, star fighters carrying ink emerged from the main flagship, and began to descend down to Nowhere.
"We don't want to draw too much attention" said Comrade Black to his men, "we should make Nowhere our temporary headquarters before we go ahead with the invasion plans."
As star fighters continued their descend, they began to fire missiles in Nowhere town. The black ink then went all over the place, to which made everyone run in panic. Back at the local military base, the General was in his tank preparing to greet the invaders.
"We're going to stop them right here, and right now" said the General as he got into the tank.
While the General was trying to make his move, missiles carrying black ink fell right onto the town, also the black ink fell right onto the citizens of Nowhere who were still running about. They soon found themselves were all in black and white, to which black ink blobs came down on parachutes heading right into the town and putting on special suits for them. A large building from an aircraft was then placed in the town center, which was really a police station.
"My God, we're in trouble here!" cried the General as he noticed how fast the inky invaders were, "Oh well, this will give me an excuse to use this neat weapon!"
The General attempted to go to work, yet his attempts were hampered, as a missile with black ink immediately exploded, getting rid of the green paint on the tank.
"I just had this thing shined!" cried the General, as he noticed the now black and white tank.
Yet before the General could make his move, the hatch to his tank was opened up, and a suit was placed on the General.
"What the heck is this thing?!" cried the General as he was forced to wear the black and white suit.
"Move it!" cried one of the ink blobs who appeared to have a weapon in his hand.
While this was going on, Eustace and Courage arrived in town. Something different was quite afoot, Eustace couldn't make it out, but all the colors of the town were gone. Everything was in complete black and white.
"What the heck is going on here, and who left this hunk of junk in the middle of the road?!" cried Eustace as he noticed the black and white tank right in front of the truck.
"Oh no, the colors are gone!" cried Courage to which he began to scream quite loudly.
"Would you shut up, you stupid dog!" cried Eustace to which he then puts on his usual mask ans scares the poor pink dog.
Courage immediately then runs away from the struck, and heads right toward the front of the tank. As Courage took time to catch his breath, he was spotted by two ink blobs whom spotted him.
"You missed one! Go get him!" ordered the superior ink blob commander to the other ink blobs.
The pink dog immediately made a dash for it, racing right away from the tank, and heading straight back toward the farm house which was about two miles or so away.
"Hey, where the think you're going, you stupid dog, Muriel said I was suppose to be with you for two hours, or I won't get those tasty pastries!" cried Eustace, to which suddenly the farmer turned toward the ink blobs whom were coming toward him, "Who the heck are you?"
"Fire your weapons!" ordered the ink blob commander.
"No good for nothing teenagers, probably another prank!" replied Eustace.
As the weapons fired, the black ink somehow had no effect on Eustace who was somehow immune to the black ink, as he was always in quite a horrible mood just as much as Comrade Black was.
"No good nothing punk teenagers, you're not going to prank me!" cried Eustace as he got into his truck and was about to follow Courage back home.
"Follow him, we suspect he might lead us to more targets" replied the commander, "we want everything ready for Comrade Black's arrival."
As at least a group of five ink blobs began to secretly follow Eustace back, the ink blobs on their way to following their target, they began to get rid of the colors of the ground, road and anything else that was colorful they could get rid of. While they were doing that, Courage had managed to race all the way back from town and immediately opened up the door and slammed it quite shut The pink dog immediately then placed on locks to the house.
"So, Eustace didn't do what he was suppose to do?" asked Muriel who was sitting in her rocking chair, "Oh well, I guess that leaves more of our tasty pastries for us."
Courage then began to attempt to tell Muriel what was going on back in town, and trying to warn her not to go out. Just then, Eustace parked his truck. As the farmer mumbled as he got out of his truck, the small group of ink blobs then turned the barn house into black and white, and later the chicken coop, and even the chickens themselves.
"Good for nothing dog, leaves me with some punk teenagers!" cried Eustace as he was heading to the front door, as the farmer attempted to enter his residence he soon found himself locked outside, "Hey, what's the big idea here?!"
"Oh no, they found us!" cried Courage.
"Let me in, you stupid dog, you did this!" cried Eustace as he was pounding his fists on the door.
"Courage, it's Eustace, let him in!" ordered Muriel.
As Courage was about to do just that, Eustace managed to weaken the door to the point the security locks were no use. The door then immediately fell right on the poor pink dog.
"Well now you've done and gone it, you busted our door" said Muriel.
"I was trying to run away from some punk teenagers whom were going to prank me!" replied Eustace in an angry tone.
"Don't take that tone of voice with me" replied Muriel.
Yet as both Eustace and Muriel were arguing, the small group of five ink blobs were observing their new targets.
"Sir, we found some targets for us" said one of the ink blobs, "they live close to the small town."
"Turn them black and white, we don't want Comrade Black to know there are a few astray here" replied the commander on the communicator.
