Chapter 10

Angela woke up in her bedroom with a splitting headache. Her eyes were blurry and teary as she tried to scan the room, blinking a little her eyes cleared up and settled on her friend Cosmos curled up sleeping next to her. (What happed?) Angela thought.( I do not remember coming back to the room….. And why dose my head hurt?)

Then Cosmos woke up and hugged Angela with teary eyes . "Thank god! I thought you were seriously hurt! What happened?" Cosmos asked with worry. "I don't remember.."Angela said with confusion. "What happened?" she asked. "You've been asleep for two days!"

"What!" Angela was shocked. She was asleep for two days! It seemed impossible.

"I came back from watching Alfred and you were gone I asked around and Kent said he saw you headed to the art gallery, when I came in you were passed out on the floor."

Cosmos told Angela how she found Dusty and Tank and they carried her back to the room. She also told her that Alfred already built a new satellite. "And there is one more thing…when I found you there was this…thing" Cosmos reached over the bed and pulled up a painting.

It was cover in dark paint and stars. "My dream." Angela said. "What?" Cosmos asked. "When I passed out I dreamt of that." Angela said pointing picture. "Wow .." Cosmos stared in awe as Angela's cell phone buzzed. It was a text from her friend who would help them saying that he was back in town and would meet them at the sundeck later that afternoon. "Who was that?" Cosmos asked. "My friend he is finally back! And he is going to meet us this afternoon." Angela's belly growled. "Well let's get something to eat I'm starving!" Angela said hopping out of bed.

(UFO)

Xizzle woke up feeling fresh and rejuvenated "I haven't felt this great in years!" he said happily. Xizzle had just gotten the okay from the doctor to be fully active. His legs were a little shaky but after walking around a bit, he was fine. "Now I must go to help human get rid of that horrible metal monster." he said with a snare and with his new jetpack he took off to strange town.

(Back in strange town)

As soon as xizzle had landed, people were already freaking out. "Invasion! Run!"

People shouted. "Someone get Angela!" another yelled. Xizzle just stood there watching the townsfolk run around in panic. Soon the white raccoon came outside and led Xizzle to Angela who was stuffing her face with a hamburger inside Mama Hogg's.

This was a very strange sight to Xizzle (she acts as if she had not consumed food before.)

He thought and Cosmos explained that Angela had been passed out for two days and had not eaten anything. Xizzle was also surprised to hear this as Angela chewed her food.

People in the restaurant stared at Xizzle and he felt more out of place and considered zapping people to make them leave.

But suddenly a window broke and people screamed and ran as multi colored robots attacked the town.

(This place is madness!) Xizzle thought as a red robot entered thought the broken widow.

Xizzle drew his ray gun and zapped the robot back out the window. Angela had stopped eating and grabbed beer bottle and pitched it at a blue colored robot that had mama Hogg trapped in a corner. The robot turned to face Angela obviously unharmed from the bottle.

The robot tried to shoot Angela with a laser but Cosmos pushed Angela down and ripped the robot's arm half-way off causing the metal man to howl in anger. Cosmos ducked as Xizzle shot the robot with his ray gun sending sparks flying everywhere. Xizzle helped Angela up and group ran out side to see a green robot and a white robot terrorizing more people.

Xizzle zapped the one closest to him as Angela and Cosmos took out the other with Angela's water gun. However, a loud screeching noise stopped everyone in their tracks and the robot's bodies grew little preparers on their heads and stared flying.

They looked above them to see Alfred on the penthouse balcony calling the colored robot's back to him.

"Ha ha ha! I bet your little spy didn't see these!( Beep)" the robot taunted. "You have just gotten a little taste of what theses baby's can do!" he snickered a little and left to fix his robots.

Cosmos looked at the ground shamefully. "Hey it's alright." Angela said. "He probably knew we might try to spy on him so he must have hid those robots somewhere you couldn't see them." Angela picked Cosmos up and looked at Xizzle. "Let's talk at my place." she said and walked to the hotel.

Xizzle followed Angela though the hotel lobby and through the screams of scared people. "Oh my god! It's in the building!" "What! Why would Angela let it in here!" the people kept making comments about Xizzle and this made him very angry. He was about to zap them with his gun until Angela put a hand on his shoulder stopping him from reaching his weapon. Then she stepped in front of him and snapped at everyone.

"Hey why don't you all just shut your mouths!" she screamed making everyone jump.

"He helped fight off the robot's for goodness sake! He is helping me so just shut up and leave him alone!" then she glared at everyone making them look down. "What right do you all have to talk crap about him! He didn't hurt any of you so learn to keep your freaking faces shut!"

When Angela had finished she truned around to see Xizzle and Cosmos stunned. Xizzle looked as if he didn't know what to think. No one ever stood up for him before.

Cosmos started laughing like a mad person. "Wow..Angela I knew you could get mad but that was some furious anger! Hahaha!" Angela started laughing too as they entered her room. Angela stopped Xizzle and asked. "You okay?" Xizzle just nodded and continued walking into the room.

Angela,Cosmos, and xizzle sat in the living room talking about Alfred's new satellite and robots. "So the new satellite controls the robots. This isn't good…did you see the damage they did in town today? If Alfred can do that when ever he wants we are in trouble." Angela said starting panic. "Now Angela just calm down." Cosmos said. Xizzle looked at the human with confuson. "Why dose she speek with worry when she could easily beat Alfred into scrap metal?" the alien asked. He had learned from experience to not make Angela angry.

Angela smiled at the idea but then frowned. "Because he is made of very strong metal and it would be very hard to break him, he always seams to be a step ahead." she said. Then Cosmos looked at the clock. "Hey Angela it's noon now shouldn't we meet your friend now?" Cosmos asked.

"Yea let's go."

(Sundeck)

The group arrived and Xizzle saw a large waterfall poring into a large pool which scared him a little. Then he saw a pale big boned man with black hair, wearing yellow overalls, big black boots, red cape, and a crown on his head. He had a pick ax and shovle straped to his back. As the man turned around to face the group he looked to be about 5 feet tall and had googles on his forehead and freckles on his cheecks.

(Xizzle's pov)

As we aproched the strange looking man he smiled at Angela. "Hey Angela it's been awhile!" when he spoke he eye'd me and the raccoon. "So are they some of you're friends?" he asked. Angela nodded her head yes and steped beside me. "This is Emperor Xizzle." she said and whispered "Say hello." to me. "Who are you?" I asked ignoring Angela at the moment which is probly a bad thing to do sence she glared at me, yes I'm going to be in pain later.

The pale man introduced his self. "I'm Lord Mole." he put plainly and kept eyeing me until Angela moved his attenson to Cosmos. Then I noticed the animals behaviors. She looked at her feet and under her fur I saw the pink color again. Angela told her to say hello and her voice spoke softly. "H-hello." she said still looking at her feet.

I looked at Lord Mole who looked confused for a moment but a sly grin played on his face. "Nice to meet you." he said bowing slightly.

This is so strange, what did it mean? why do they change colors? Is it just the females who turn pink? I don't understand…then I failed to notice Angela speeking to me.

"Xizzle? Hello anyone in there?" she asked waveing her hand in front of my eyes. She must have seen the confusion on my face because she pulled me to the side away from the others. "What wrong?" she asked. It took me a moment to find my words.

"What dose it mean?" I asked. But she became more confused. "Why is her face pink?" I asked pointing to Cosmos, who was still pink and barely looking at Lord Mole.

Angela grinned at them and turned back to me. "Because she …ya know." she said smiling more. "No I don't know…" I said and Angela's face dropped. "You serous?" she asked and I said "Yes." she shook her head. "I'll explain later okay?" she said. "Can you be nice and tell Lord Mole what happened when you found the satellite?" she asked. "I know you don't like him… but he can help us and buy us some time." she added. "Fine. But you must explain human things to me." she agreed and I told the mole about Alfred.

(End pov)

"So this thing is keeping alien boy, here from reaching home and cuseing robot's to wreck the town…" Lord mole said as Xizzle glared glared at him. "Yea I can probly rig this thing to shut the signal off." Angela smiled. "thank you." Lord Mole grined. "Anything for a good friend. But it won't last, it's only temporary until you can find a way to shut this thing down for good." he said turning to rewire the satellite.

(Angela's room later that night)

Xizzle, Angela and Cosmos were on the couch waching tv and talking.

"So why aren't you back on your ship Xizzle?" Cosmos asked.

"My comrads are trying to find a way to destroy Alfred's evil device and I must reman here until it is destroyed." Xizzle said and Cosmos kept waching T.v. not really paying attenson. "Xizzle." Angela said getting his attenson.

"What is it?" he asked. "If your going to stay here your going to have to follow some rules." Xizzle nodded. "Alright first up is sleeping arrangements." Angela got up and showed Xizzle her bedroom "This is mine and cosmos room. If you want I can save you a room in the hotel or you can sleep on the sofa."

Xizzle thought about renting a room, but the idea of crazy guests trying to kill him in his sleep made him think that at lest with Angela around people would lave him alone. "Sofa." he said. Then he noticed the painting beside Angela's bed. "What is that?" he asked. Angela steped into her room and grabed the painting then sat on the bed.

"When I passed out two days ago..this will sound a little crazy.. But I had a vison of this place…. And when Cosmos found me I had painted this." she said handing him the painting. Xizzle took the paiting and his alien eyes grew bigger.

"Your not crazy." the alien repilyed. "What?" Angela got off the bed and stood by Xizzle. "Your not crazy. I've seen these star formations before." Xizzle said pointing at the stars. "That's great! Then I'm not crazy." Angela said happly before hugging Xizzle arm; after realizing what she was doing Angela blushed before letting go.

Xizzle eyed Angela before asking. "Why did you do that?" Angela looked confused.

"You said you'd explan human things to me, why did turn pink?" Xizzle explaned, and asked again. But Cosmos came in rubbing her eyes. "Angie …I'm tired…"

Angela picked Cosmos up and put her on the bed. "Night" Angela said as her friend waved sleepily as Angela and Xizzle left the room.

They sat on the sofa while Angela try'd to explain. "Alright um…when someones face turns pink they are embarrass. There are different types of embarrassment." Xizzle nodded his head understanding so far. "there is the embarrassment of falling down or messing up. There's a shy embarrassment when people who are shy say something and people stare at them they blush. And in Cosmos case she was blushing because I think she likes Lord Mole."

Xizzle understood the embarrassment part but "How could anyone like him?" the alien blurted and receved a hand slaping his mouth shut. Angela glared at him. "Be quiet! Do want to wake up Cosmos!" then she let go. "Besides, you can't help who you like…so just leave her alone." Angela said in a whisper. "I still don't see how anyone could like him.."Xizzle mumbled. "Moving on…" Angela continued. "Is there anything ealse you want to know?" Xizzle nodded. "When the time comes… I will ask." he said.

"Alright then….. Well I'm going to bed." Angela got up but stoped walking when she reached her bedroom door. "Good night Xizzle." the alien looked to out the window on the balcony. "It is a good night." Xizzle said refuring to the weather outside making Angela roll her eyes.
