Summary: A new friend provides some cooling down for Sun, Ari, and Electra!
Summertastic Adventures: Meet Overflow!
The sun was beating down hard on everyone.
Sun could feel herself cooking in the hot summer heat, wearing her red and orange one piece. Beside her, Arianna was decked out in a pink bikini with white polka dots, claiming it too hot for clothes. Sitting next to her, Electra was also wearing a black and white striped bikini, her tentacle-like hair was frizzling weakly. It was official, the heat wave had finally killed them all, nor one ounce of energy came off them.
The only one not suffering was Fira, the Pyronite female laid flat on the lawn chair in the yard wearing a revealing yellow tankini. The summer heat didn't bother her, in fact it gave her more strength. The heat wave was nothing more than a relaxing summer day.
"You guys are all weaklings!" She shouted, taking off her red shades, sticking her tongue at them. "This heat is nothing!"
"Easy for you to say! You relish this time of year!" Sun shouted back, splashing herself with her glass of water. "Even I have limits on how hot I can get!"
"The heat index and the humidity does nothing but make us more tired and chapped." Electra concluded, feeling herself dry up. "My poor skin can't handle this much heat."
Arianna slumped over the chair. "Where's Cloak when you need him? He could cool us down with one breath!"
"He and the other boys went on that field trip to the Olumbers History Museum!" Fira replied happily. "So we have the whole day to ourselves. I say we relish it! We don't get days like this!"
No sooner had she said that did a massive wave of water rain down in her. She screamed and sputtered to spit all the water out of her mouth. Her whole body was drenched.
Sun, Arianna, and Electra looked up to see a weird alien walk over near them, Selena by its side. It wore a red exosuit with two containers with water on its head and black mask-like markings around its green eyes. It also had two tubes of water reaching from a respirator where its mouth should be to its back, and its forearms were filled with water. It had black three-fingered hands and two black toes on each foot.
"Hey! How's it hanging guys?" It said in a friendly manner, waving at them. The voice was male and young sounding. Sun gasped as she ran over to examine the new alien.
"Wow, you have water powers!" She said happily, grabbing his arm and swing from it.
"Everyone, this is Overflow, Water Hazard's nephew. Rachel thought we could use him to "beat the heat". He's friendly, but I would recommend you out your hair in a swim cap Electra." Selena gave the girls green cap which she eagerly put on. "Well I have to go inside to get some work done so you girls have fun with him."
"Thanks mom! We will have fun!" Sun promised, she and Overflow smiling at each other.
"Yeah, we'll have a fun time getting to know each other." Overflow agreed.
Arianna came over to meet the new alien. "Well my name is Arianna, but you can call me Ari." She pointed to Electra. "That's Electra, the girl you doused over there is Fira." She gently pried Sun from his arm. "And this ball of sunshine is Sun!"
"Overflow make us wet! It's so hot today!" Sun begged, feeling the sweat roll down her face.
Overflow tapped his chin as if thinking about it. "I don't know, the last time I tried to water someone, I almost drowned them."
"Oh nonsense, we need someone to get us all wet!" Ari said, tapping his water cannons. "So give us the biggest wave you can make!"
Overflows eyes widened at that request. "The biggest wave I can make?"
Sun stretched her arms out wide to prove her sister's point. "Make it rain!"
Overflow smiled as he charged up his water cannons. Electra saw this and politely stepped out of the targeting range. Suddenly, a massive gush of water erupted from the cannons, a tsunami wave appearing before them. Ari and Sun took one second to realize their crazed request before finding themselves drowning under the wave's mighty power. Fira's face changed into that of horror as the Pyronite was once again submerged underwater. Electra tugged her swim cap, trying to keep it on her head as bubbles escaped from her mouth. Overflow himself watched the girl's underwater, happy that he could make such a big splash.
Nneedless to say, it took two weeks to clean up the yard and the street. Selena couldn't invite Overflow over anymore since the city blamed her for the massive "pipe break". But her family was welcomed to come by Rachel's house and hangout with their cool alien friend.
