Chapter 3
"Hey, I know that planet..." Faye said to anybody who was listening over the loud noises of the ship.
"Yeah, it's called Earth, Faye! Now, get off!!!" Spike shouted as he grabbed Faye's wrists and pulled her off of his neck.
"Earth? Why Earth? But, Jupiter is that way..." Jet complained.
~* After collision on Earth (United States)
"Whoa... what happened to us?" Faye asked as she stood up from the rubble of the ship, or what was left of it, anyway...
"Um, we have a problem..." Spike said as he stared all around him.
"What is it now? I don't think I can handle anymore problems for today..." Jet said as he walked next to Spike.
"The buildings... are complete..." Spike replied as he looked all around him.
"And the ground isn't all water..." Jet noticed.
"Ed knows where we are!" Edward sang behind them.
"Where?" Jet, Spike and Faye asked at the same time.
"Well, according to Edward's calculations, we are indeed on planet Earth, but in a different year..." Ed explained.
"What year are we in?" Faye asked.
"Let's go find out..." Spike said as he started to walk into the nearest town.
As Spike, Faye, Jet, Edward and Ein walked into the town, they all got strange looks from the locals.
"Why are they staring at us?" Faye whispered to Spike.
"Could it be your clothes?" Spike asked as he looked at Faye.
"No way... these clothes are totally in style now..." Faye replied as she continued to look and walk at the same time.
"Excuse me, but where are we?" Jet asked a man standing on a corner with his briefcase.
"Indianapolis. Are we finished now?" the man asked as he looked down at his watch and ran across the street, dodging cars.
"Could you be so kind as to tell me what year it is, sir?" Faye asked another man who didn't appear to be in a hurry.
"Are you crazy, or something?" the man replied.
"I can help you there..." a mysterious voice said behind Faye as she felt a hand tap her on the shoulder.
"You can? Thank you, kid!" Faye said in reply as she turned around and looked at the girl with blue hair and brown eyes. Spike, Jet and Edward (followed by Ein) came up next to Faye.
"The year is 2002. You are in Indianapolis. It's kind of a rinky-dink city, but you'll learn how to survive..." the girl replied.
"2002? But, it doesn't make any sense... how did that happen?" Spike asked as he looked confused. He almost fainted, trying to get everything together in his head, but he was caught by Jet.
"I think you guys need some explanation... you can come to my house. Just follow me, but don't touch anything..." the girl said sternly.
"By the way... what is your name?" Spike asked.
"Akina. My mom made it up. How about you guys?" Akina asked.
"I'm Spike. The chrome-dome over there is Jet. The purple-hair wench is Faye, and the lanky red-head is Edward." Spike replied.
"Edward? Is it a girl or a boy?" Akina asked as she started to walk backward with her hands behind her head and looked at Edward.
"Ed is a girl... so what does that make you?" Ed asked.
"A girl. What's your deal, Ed?" Akina asked as she stopped walking.
"Ed doesn't like the way you talk to me..." Edward said as she clenched her hands into fists.
"Well, if you have a problem with me, I'll just walk away now. I hope you guys have a great time..." Akina said as she started walking away from the group.
"Wait! Edward didn't mean it, Akina! Please stay with us..." Spike pleaded.
"Well, I don't know. Just keep me away from red-head over there and I'll stay." Akina replied.
"Fine. Ed, go behind Faye... and Akina, you can walk with us." Spike said as he held Akina's shoulder and walked her back to the group.
"Hey, I know that planet..." Faye said to anybody who was listening over the loud noises of the ship.
"Yeah, it's called Earth, Faye! Now, get off!!!" Spike shouted as he grabbed Faye's wrists and pulled her off of his neck.
