Of Aliens and Royalty
Chapter 11- You did WHAT?
~~~.~~~
Tighten woke up to the burning, tingling sensation of being tazed with a tazer. His skin felt like it was on fire and he even saw red flashes.
"AHHHH!" The red head screamed. Suddenly, he gasped. Where was he? How did he get here? This wasn't his house! He looked down, only to see that he was tied down onto a couch.
"Hello again…Tighten." A voice spat. Tighten, slowly turned to face the voice.
It couldn't be…
But it was…
"Hello…Megamind…" Tighten growled (though this growl only managed to mask his fear), "How was your day?" he sneered. Megamind slapped the 25 year old,
"Don't play around with me! I know that you were seen here in Metrocity, kissing my sister! Even after I told you to never to return again! What have you done with her?" Hal gave Megamind an evil grin,
"I haven't done anything…" his face then contorted with sadness, "Its what she's done to me!" Confused by this abrupt change in emotion, Megamind stood away from Tighten and began to pace quickly, pondering the corpulent man's words, before shouting in the said man's face,
"Don't play with me, Tighten! I want the truth and I want it now! Minion! The whales!"
"Initiating the whales sir!" Minion's voice replied,
"What's this? Your attempt at trying to be threatening?" Tighten mocked, his fear slowly evaporating, "Come on and give it a rest already-"
Suddenly, the ground below the sofa began to shake. Hal instantly looked down at the ground only to see that the couch was now on a thin, metal platform, surrounded by killer whales…in pink tutus,
"What the-" Hal said. He was torn between laughing or starting to fear for his life.
He chose to laugh,
"Hahaha! Oh that's genius! What is the wittle whale going to dance for me in its wittle tutu! Bahahaha! What a loser! You found a loser whale to match your loser appearance and your loser life!" Tears from laughter were now streaming down Tighten's face. Megamind looked extremely hurt for a minute, before his face hardened.
"Minion! What did I say about the tutus!"
"But sir…there was a special! Buy three whales and get three tutu's free!" Minion whimpered.
"You're going to end up with a special punishment when I'm done with him!" Megamind roared, "And you bought these! I wanted a rental! Minion…" The fish gulped. Tighten's sides were now beginning to hurt from his laughter, he was surprised that he ever feared this guy. I mean, he couldn't even threaten someone correctly.
Megamind growled once more,
"Whatever! I ask you once more Tighten," the one in blue spat, "What. Have. You. Done. With. My. Sister?" Megamind said furiously. He couldn't stand the thought that one of his last remaining relatives could have been dead by now…and he could have prevented it. Maybe he should have married her…then they wouldn't even be in this mess!
Tighten, now feeling no fear towards Megamind, now began to tease him.
"The question is, what have you done with your sister!" Hal said. Megamind's eyes widened in surprise,
"What the…that doesn't make any sense!"
"I know you are but what am I!"
"Oh yeah! Your mom!"
"My mom? Your mom!"
"AGH!" Megamind shouted, grabbing his big blue cranium in frustration, "This is your last chance Tighten…tell me what you've done with my sister…" Minion suddenly flipped a switch and water began to flicker and dance…as if it was filled with electricity, "Or you'll have a whale and tazer-filled death!" Tighten mocked a fearful expression and waved his hands in mock surrender,
"Ooh. I'm so scared. The whales in the little tutus are going to eat me."
"That's it! Don't say that I didn't warn you! Minion! Drop. Him."
~~~.~~~
It was dark out as Princess Celestial Starburst was running throughout the streets of Metro City, searching every nook and cranny for Megamind's base. She didn't know where to begin in such a large city, but if she knew her brother, he would probably put it in an inconspicuous place. I hope he hasn't done anything irrational…but why would he take Hal and not take me? Did he not see me or something? After asking a couple of the civilians, she finally found the base inside a factory.
The princess eyed the factory in surprise,
"This is where his secret lab is? I was expecting something more…impressive…." she suddenly squinted and saw something shimmering behind the walls. She then walked up to one of the walls, and placed her hand on it, "What the-" were the last words she spoke, before she was sucked into the wall
~~~.~~~
The platform with Tighten and the couch began to fall jerkingly slow towards the whales,
"Minion! What is going on with the platform!"
"Uh…Sorry sir…we're receiving some technical difficulties…"
~~~.~~~
Princess Celestial was inside the base. After her initial shock wore off, she sighed, "Hm…well I wasn't expecting that to happen. That was good, I'll give him credit," she said as she began to wander around. The princess was looking at all of the inventions strewn around when suddenly, she caught sight of pieces of paper that were organized in the air.
"What is this?" She said as she fingered one of the pieces of paper, "Some sort of message or decoration?" She stood away from the paper,
"Hmm…its almost like a mosaic…" Suddenly the princess gasped as the picture, shifted into focus.
She had to find Hal and she had to find him quickly.
~~~.~~~
"Just one more minute sir…the engines had to warm up,"
"Wow man, you can't do anything right can you!" Megamind's cheeks grew red,
"Shut up…"
~~~.~~~
The clicks of high heels resonated throughout the lab as the princess raced to find her brother before he did anything drastic.
~~~.~~~
"Finally, the engines are ready sir!"
Megamind laughed, "Drop him then!" Megamind then began to dramatically hit the button which would drop Tighten to a certain death when suddenly,
"Wait! Brother stop!"
A/N:…yeah…its been a year…I suck…but there will be some rapid quick updates from here on out! Just 3 more chapters left!
