The Star Garden is under attack!
Chapter 8: Chao in Spaaace!
" Techno, what's the deal with Nebula?" Peach asked.
" A few years back, she crash-landed in the garden. She had engine trouble. I fixed it and she's had her eyes on me ever since." Techno answered as he took a bite of jerky. The computer monitor flashed red as Nebula came on screen again.
" Techno! The Star Garden is under attack by a gang of black creatures! Please… W-e nee-d y-our he-…" Nebula's voice crackled. Techno's eyes widened in terror as he listened. Peach and Red walked up to their pal.
" We'll go to the Star Garden for you!" Peach said.
" I'm going… Nebula probably doesn't want saved by anyone else." Techno replied.
" We're still going! There's probably more chao there. You can't save them all by yourself!" Red said. Techno nodded and walked to the arms room. The purple chao then tossed weapons at the two guardians. Red whipped out a headband and tied it. Peach slipped on her pendant and readied a sword. Techno entered the coordinates for the Star Garden into a teleporter as his partners joined him. Seconds later, the trio stood inside the besieged garden.
" We made it!" Red cheered.
" There's no time to waste!" Techno barked. Peach nodded as the gang dashed down the hall, felling creatures along the way. Red blew the door to Nebula's room down. The captain lay on the floor with a wounded leg and a creature holding a plasma gun at her.
" Techno, I'll distract that thing while you and Peach grab Nebula." Red said as he picked up a wrench and charged. The alien opened fire on the red chao who deflected the shots and clubbed him on the head.
" Nebula! Are you okay?" Techno asked.
" I-I'm fine…" Nebula answered as she tried to walk. She stepped on her wounded leg and collapsed in pain. Techno and Peach helped her up.
" I'm worried about Star and Galaxy. I sent them to the kitchen to grab me a shake and I haven't heard from them." Nebula cried.
" Peach, Red… Go to the kitchen and get those two out of there! I'll stay here." Techno ordered. The two guardians took off to the kitchen where a few winged creatures flew. Star and Galaxy cowered in the middle. Red found a butter knife and some string lying on the counter. Quickly, he tied the two items together into a bit. Peach saw what her brother was up to and made a second one.
" Ready?" Red asked. Peach nodded as they jumped the creatures. The knives were slipped in the mouths when the two chao took control. Red whipped out a gun and shot down some of them while Peach unsheathed her sword and sliced the others. The chao then swooped by Star and Galaxy and picked them up. With their mission accomplished, Peach and Red flew back to Techno. The inventor tore off a strip of cloth from Nebula's dress to make a bandage. The aliens were defeated and the Star Garden was saved.
" You have our thanks." Star said as she bowed to Red. Galaxy shook Peach's hand. Nebula clung to Techno.
" Thank you!" she said as she smooched Techno. The purple chao's face went from purple to a deep red. After the goodbyes were said, the trio returned to their home.
Meanwhile, Team Chao arrived at the base where the chain was.
' Let's go!' Scribbles wrote while Ghost stepped on.
" Hold it!" a voice said as a pair of red shoes walked into view.
