I have decided to upload all the chapters from tumblr on here. Since I just wrote another chapter after so long lol. I know many were like okay what happens next. Anyway you will know once I am done today. In this chapter you will learn some Taleon language lmfao. Don't judge me. I loved the Avatar and they have a language so I thought hey let me make my own. How in the world would another planet also speak just english? right? anyway I hope you enjoy this. Leave me a review. I also joke about Glee on here (and simultaneously make fun of myself in the process)
I don't own glee but I do own Taleo and all that jazz lol. I love Tamia so you see me reference her songs here and there on any fic that I write.
It was quite quiet on Sam's ship and all you could hear were the sounds of Mercedes giggling every so often. Everyone had fallen asleep after they ate what Santana kept calling Alien Food. Mercedes stayed up because she still had questions and was still eating. She wasn't too sure about the food but she was hungry and it was all they had. Sam can be heard telling her stories of his home planet and causing her to let out a belly ripping laugh.
"So…is that the language they speak on Taleo?" she asked popping what she would call a grape in her mouth. It gushed and burst out a sugary flavor mixed with a sour flavor causing her to flinch. Sam smiled at her reaction to everything she placed in her mouth, she was so dramatic.
"No…Taleo is like earth. There are more than one language spoken there." He explained with a smile on his face. "I learned English while doing research and watching you all on TV."
"You guys have TV…and you watch us on there?" she asked in shock. She was learning so many new things. Everything she was ever taught about space and aliens were being thrown out with every information Sam divulged.
"Yes we have television and shows but they are more different than what you all have here." He laughed as he thought about it. "You all have comedy and back home there aren't many comedies on TV." He paused and chuckled as if he remembered something funny. "Like for instance, I enjoyed watching this show where a group of what you call high schoolers sing in a thing called glee." He paused and looked at her for reassurance. When she rolled her eyes he continued. "I thought it was comical because I couldn't believe what you all allow to happen on school grounds with children running around. I personally enjoyed the cheer coach." He paused and stood up straight pretending to hold a clipboard. "Cut my budget? You can't cut my budget without express permission of the president of the Federal Reserve!" he said imitating the character. Mercedes couldn't help but bust out laughing at how great his impression was. He seemed happy that she enjoyed his impression and smiled at her infectious laughter.
"Sam, nobody watches that show anymore…except for the writers and maybe the extras!" Mercedes stated in between laughs. "Maybe some craze fans who can't seem to grasp reality and love to be tortured…I do like the black girl on the show though." She added then paused. "Now she can sang!"
"Well most people refuse to watch, or better yet refuse to admit that they actually watch earthling shows like glee, but they do watch it."
"Why is that?"
"Well it's mainly because your people have no talents, so they feel they are better." He replied looking over at her. "I don't feel that way. I grew to love your people from watching them on TV, Brittany as well." He added looking over to where Brittany had curled up next to Santana.
"Hmmm…well…we do have talents here!" she stated picking up another sour gushy grape. "They just are different. I have talent, Kurt and Santana do as well." She stated then giggled. "Well now Santana has twice the talent."
"I remember…" he nodded. "Kurt mentioned you have the singing talent, right?" he stood to stand in front of her. Mercedes smiled swinging her feet and shrugged. Sam stepped closer to her and rubbed her knee causing Mercedes to jump. "Can you sing for me?" he asked looking into her eyes. She bit her bottom lip and smiled.
"I guess…I can sing a lil somethin' somethin'!" she smiled looking at his hands still on her knee. She could feel her heart beating faster and faster and slowed when he pulled away.
"Awesome!
"Umm I guess I'll sing a little Tamia, not sure if you know who she is but…here it goes." She looked down and closed her eyes as she hummed the beginning tune. Sam watched as she transformed in front of him from the shy woman she was a minute ago to stage commanding diva within minutes. "I don't understand, you look just like the man in the pic…ture…by our bed…the suspense is pounding and clouding up my head. I'm checking your clothes and you wear the same size shoes, you sleep in his spot and you're driving his car…but I don't know just who you are…" she sang opening her eyes and looking at him as he stared at her in awe of her talent. "There's a stranger in my house…I took a while to figure out…there's no way you could be who you say you are…you gotta be someone else…Cause he wouldn't touch me like that and he wouldn't treat me like you do…he would adore me…he wouldn't ignore me…so I'm convinced…there's a stranger in my house." She stopped and smiled at him as if she transformed back into that shy woman she was prior.
"Wow!" was all he could say. He'd never heard anyone sing with such a voice ever in his life. "You have an amazing talent!" he added and shook his head as she shrugged off his compliment. "No…I'm serious!"
"Yeah..well…it's not a rare talent here!" she stated looking away then turning her gaze back at him and smiling. "So…what are all your talents?" she asked smiling widely as she shifted the attention away from her.
"Um…well…I am slowly getting them back…but I have the ability to create force fields, and I'm gaining my speed talent back." He smiled. "My greatest talent is my strength which I think I finally got that back after we ate." He added flexing his muscles. Mercedes arched one brow at him and shook her head laughing.
"I thought that was Brittany's talent?"
"She has that as well." He nodded. "What? You don't believe I have the strength talent?" he asked looking at her as she shook her head popping another sour grape in her mouth. "Guess I'll have to show you." He said smiling mischievously. He lifted her up effortlessly from under her armpits as if she was a newborn baby swinging her around. Mercedes eyes bulged in fear as she almost choked on the grape hitting him.
"Put me down…put me down!" she stated softly hoping not to wake the others. Sam smiled and lowered her a bit and laughed as she clung to him wrapping her legs and arms around him and nearly suffocating him. "Sam, are you crazy?" she asked still holding on for dear life as if she could fall and hurt herself.
"I can be!" he replied sitting her back down but not moving away from between her legs. She looked up at him feeling her heart beat increase again.
"Gosh he's cute!" she thought to herself as she gazed at his parted lips. "You can't have feelings for him, girl, he's an alien." She thought to herself as she watched his face get closer to hers. Their nose brushed against each other and she watched him close his eyes before she did the same. "Sam…we can't…" she stated pushing him away. He stopped and stepped back a bit licking his lips and nodding as if he were embarrassed.
"Uh…yeah…I'm sorry…I just thought…I mean…" he rambled rubbing the back of his neck as he walked away from her.
"I just don't think it would be safe. Remember what happened last night…you nearly killed me." She added jumping down and following behind him. She placed her hand on his shoulder and he jerked away.
"It's okay…I just need to go for a walk." He stated leaving her standing at the door as he walked out.
"You're better than me, girl! I would have been all over them froggy lips!" she heard Santana say. Mercedes turned and noticed her friend talking with her eyes closed. Near her Kurt and Sebastian were resting and Kurt nodded as well. Mercedes shook her head and went back to her resting spot wondering how in the world was she starting to like the alien that almost killed her earlier that day.
Sebastian eyed the trio as they talked about his brother as if he was a prized piece of pie that they can split up between them. He could never understand what Sam saw in these people, even when they were back in Taleo. He remembered trying to convince Sam and Brittany that the war was none of their business. He thought he got thru to Brittany but after he looked around and saw they both had left his mother had made him promise to bring them back in one piece. Now, here he was pretending he was going to stay to help when in fact he was only trying to buy time to figure out how to get them back home. He smiled mischievously as he watched Mercedes push Sam away. That was it! He would definitely need to get Mercedes.
"Mercedes, you heard him yourself, he is human just like the rest of us…"
"From another planet, Kurt!"
"I have to side with Kurt on this one, Mercedes, I mean did you not see his lips?" Santana asked. Mercedes sighed as she looked at her two besties trying to convince her to give Sam a shot. They barely knew the guy, and he was barely human. Mercedes could never, would never, or could she?
"I saw them." She admitted she'd admired them since she saw him especially when he'd smile. "But he almost killed me with them!"
"Some would say he took your breath away." Kurt added shaking his head with a smile on his face. Mercedes rolled her eyes shaking her head at his lame pun.
"He almost killed me."
"He swept you off your feet."
"Did you not hear me say that he almost killed me!"
"I bet sex with him would be earth shattering." Santana said placing her hand on her chin. "How big do you think he is? Those spandex are hiding NO secrets for him nor his evil brother over there." Santana stated looking over to where Sebastian lay. Sebastian tried really hard not to flinch; he didn't want them to know he was listening to their conversation. "Do you think he has a big hose monster?" she asked softly.
"You need Jesus!"
"I need to scream Jesus!" Santana corrected. "Do you know how long it's been since I last got some?" Santana asked looking between the two as they looked at her in disgust. "What? I'm just saying you should try him out and let me know."
"Santana, he almost killed me!" Mercedes reminded her again. "And all I did was, perform CPR!"
"Oh you mean the tongue wrestling thing you did at the park with him?" Kurt asked smiling. Santana laughed and nodded as Mercedes shook her head in denial.
"Imagine him using those Guppy lips on your…"
"Stop! I am not bumping uglies with him!" Mercedes replied cutting off Santana before she said something completely x-rated. "Either way, he's going back to Taleo when all this war craziness is over!" Mercedes had to admit to herself that she was attracted to Sam but it was hard getting over the fact that he was from another planet. It's one thing to date outside of your race, but she would be jumping galaxies if she even tried. She knew one thing though, she needed to talk to Sam and clear it all up.
"Right!" Santana agreed looking sadly at Brittany as she slept. Although they've only been around each other a few hours, she'd grown attached to the blonde woman.
"Maybe they'll stay." Kurt added shrugging his shoulder and looking at his two friends. Sebastian wanted to jump in and tell them that it would never happen. He was taking them back home as soon as he gets his plan started. All he needed to do was get Sam to see the earthlings for the weaklings that they were and all he needed was Mercedes.
"We have to get going!" Sam said walking back into the ship. "The others have landed." He announced. "Sebastian…Britt…wake up!"
"The others like who?" Mercedes asked Sam walking over to him. He walked past her not even looking her way and shook Sebastian and Brittany. Mercedes looked over at Kurt and Santana in shock. "Did he just…?" she asked.
"Sebastian…wake up!" Sam repeated. "I noticed one of their ships crashed where we heard the explosion earlier." He explained as Sebastian pretended to wake. He also didn't want to tell Sam that the ship he saw was actually his ship that he took but crashed because he was never trained on how to land a war ship.
"So they have a lead on our location?" Sebastian asked. "We're not ready! Brittany still needs to retrieve her talents from that earthling."
"It's Santana, you prick!"
"Whatever!"
"Can you guys just stop!" Brittany said looking between the two. "I don't think I want my talents back!" she stated gaining everyone's attention. "I can feel, touch and do what everyone else does." She confessed looking sadly at Santana.
"Britt, you need your talents! Santana doesn't know how to use them like you do!" Sam stated. "All you have to do is transfer energies like you did before." He said turning his attention over to Santana.
"I don't remember how I did it." Santana lied. Brittany smiled and walked over to her taking her hand in hers.
"Just relax!"
"Can you put me to sleep again, Sam?"
"No, I need you awake for this!" Brittany stepped closer to her and smiled as Santana looked over to Mercedes and Kurt nervously. Mercedes looked over at Sam who was still avoiding her and then turned her gaze back to Brittany as she pulled Santana in for what looked like a passionate kiss. Mercedes wasn't sure if Santana was enjoying or if it was part of the transfer of energy but they were both moaning and glowing slightly as their energies exchanged.
"Well damn!" Kurt exclaimed when they finally parted ways. "Am I the only one that's not getting any action around here?"
"I'd give you what you're asking for if I didn't think you'd suck my talents out of me." Sebastian said winking at Kurt. Kurt smiled shyly and looked away.
"Sam, can we talk for a second?" Mercedes asked stepping over to where he stood. He didn't look her way but he didn't move away either. "Can we talk in private?"
"Mercedes, we don't have time to talk!" he stated glaring at her as his eyes turned yellow. Mercedes stepped away as he brushed past her. "I have a world to save." He added before walking out of the ship.
"Don't worry about him; he goes through mood changes a lot!" Sebastian said standing behind her. "One minute he's into something and the next he's on to the next pretty thing." Mercedes turned to look at him as he continued. "Back in Taleo, he's quite the ladies' man, jumping from girlfriend to girlfriend." Sebastian smiled internally as he watched the seed he was planting sprout right before him.
"Oh…well…I guess I'll just back off then." Mercedes said walking back over to where Kurt sat tending to Santana who was regaining her own energy slowly.
