Inside the car, they sat in the back seat, staring at two men and one woman
sitting opposite them. The car was a lot bigger then what it had looked
like, it was kind of like a small limo. It had eight seats, six facing each
other the driver was hidden behind a dark tinted glass wall.
"Boys put the guns away." The women said without taking her eyes off the girls. "Sorry for the harsh way we got you here, but we had no other option."
"What do you want?" Emma snapped.
The woman looked across at Sarah, who was shaking and crying. "Please I am not going to hurt you." Emma did not seem convinced. "My name is Joe, and this to my left is Zachary."
Jade who was patting Sarah on the back looked up. "Stop the car, let us out."
"Please, hear me out, and if you still want to leave I will stop the car."
Sarah stoped crying "What do you want then."
"Well, I can not tell you much, all I can tell you is that we need you three to enter into a competition."
Emma eyed her suspiciously, "What kind of competition?"
"Well it is kind of hard to explain, and it may not make sense to you right now."
"Try me".
"Well we need you to represent human kind in a battle to keep Earth safe from an invasion of other planets." Zack blurted out.
Jade had now had enough. "I don't know what kind of sick game you are playing at, but we're not playing, let us out. NOW."
"Please." Joe was becoming desperate.
"No let us out." Emma screamed out.
Zack gave a quick sideward glance to Joe. She sighed, and then nodded. Joe then began to recite some kind of chant. A weird sort of spasm passed through her, she griped the seat. Then before Sarah could begin to scream, there was a bright red flash of light and Joe had transformed into something else. A lion. A tall lion sat before them with bight green eyes, the same colour as Joe's.
"She's the devil". Sarah screamed.
"Please don't be alarmed", the lion spoke in Joe's gentle voice. "I just wanted to prove to you that I am telling the truth."
"What is the truth", Jade said in shock. "That aliens... that can change into animals.are going to invade Earth?" (You could use commas instead of dots, but that's up to you, or you could leave it blank)
"The truth is that the world is not what you think it is, and man kind is in danger."
"What danger?"
"If we don't stop them, Earth will be given to another race, and most likely a very aggressive race. Please will you help?" The car stopped. Jade looked out the window they were at the airport.
"Look you have got the wrong people, we couldn't help you even if we wanted to, sorry." Joe now transformed back into her original self. It seemed to take a lot of energy out of her she was breathing heavily.
"But you can help, we can train you, you must trust me." Joe begged.
"Please our flight leaves in 20 minutes, we will give you 5 minutes to make a decision." With that the men stepped out of the car, Joe followed behind them.
"Wait." Jade stopped her. "Are you sure you can't get anyone else?" Joe looked down at her with concern. "No, but I have faith that you can do it, if only you gave it a chance." Then she closed the door behind her leaving the girls alone inside.
"What is going on Jade?" Sarah whispered.
"I don't know Sarah, but we're not going to find out just sitting here, we have to help."
"O my god, I can't believe you guys." Emma now turned to Jade. "She makes up a lame little story, and preforms some magic trick, and you guys fall for it."
"No, I think she is telling the truth Emma, that was no magic trick, and if it was, why would she go to all the effort." Jade looked hard at Emma. "Look, if you want to stay here with the penguins and waste your life, fine, but me and Sarah are going."
Emma looked at Sarah, who had her eyes closed tightly, and her hands over her ears, as she often did when she could sense a fight between them. "Who said Sarah was going with you? Let her decide." They both turned to Sarah who slowly opened her eyes.
"Listen Sarah", Jade spoke softly, "Do you want to stay here at the school, or do you want to take your chances with these people."
"Who are probably psycho killers." Emma snapped.
Sarah looked at both of her friends, and then out the window at Joe and the other men who were looking at their watches. "I think that Joe is really nice, and that we should help her." Jade smiled at Sarah, then hugged her until she squeaked.
"Come on Emma, there is nothing for us here, and I don't want to go without you." Just then Joe poked her head in the door.
"Well have you made a decision?" Jade and Sarah looked at Emma. Emma sighed.
"Ok, we'll help."
"Boys put the guns away." The women said without taking her eyes off the girls. "Sorry for the harsh way we got you here, but we had no other option."
"What do you want?" Emma snapped.
