Bang Bang
"What'll we do now?" Cindy asked.
"What do you mean?" Angela exclaimed.
"What are we going to do now?" Cindy repeated.
"I'll repair the ship." Angela said.
"But you can't." Libby exclaimed.
"And why not?" Angela asked.
"Because your injured." Libby said.
"I am not." Angela exclaimed.
Angela had been insistant about repairing the ship for ten straight hours. The Junk Man and Grandma Taters had analysed the ship and had found out that the secondary engine was half in working order. Baby Eddie and Eustace had started fixing it, but they even said it was useless. Angela, though, said she was going to still go out there and track her son down.
"That engine can still ride right?" Libby asked.
"It'll ride if I'm the only one onboard." Angela said.
"Huh." Libby exclaimed.
"You, Cindy, Jimmy, Sheen and Carl will have to stay here." Angela said.
"But why?" Cindy asked.
"I'm not going to repeat myself." Angela said.
Angela nodded her head and boarded her ship. Cindy tried to follow but Angela shoved her out quickly. Libby couldn't believe it. Her idol was going out into the face of danger. Libby remembered the time when Angela had ridden Satan; one of her horses, in the Trackner Handicap. That was really an eventful race. She remembered when she saw that Satan had tripped up and Angela had fallen into the pack of eight horses. She remembered that Angela had gone through eight surgeries to fix her leg.
There was a puff of smoke that drew Libby and the others back. Angela was gone, her ship and she had left the open vavle that The Junk Man had opened so that she could go through. The only evidence to show that she was once there was a small puddle of exhast water from the engine. Libby could feel the fear rise up in her chest.
"I'm back." Angela said. "Lets go."
"Glad your back." King Goobot said.
"Glad to be back." Angela said.
Meldar squinted his eyes and with a fast paced twist, turned around and away from the screen. Vanndana had a hideous smile on her face. Meldar smiled and turned around. The radar still detected a ship coming towards them. Slowly, he pressed the view button and the screen blinked on a picture of the small blue ship he had just hit with his rocket. Meldar gawked at the screen for the longest time.
"Vanndana" He said.
"Yes, Meldar." Vanndana said.
"Ready the Utroin Bombs." Meldar hissed.
"Right away." Vanndana said.
Vanndana rushed over to another screen and pressed a button. The screen lit up on an image of a long and circular bomb with the Utroin Bomb on the side. Slowly, and carefully she pressed another button and the screen showd a message that said Bomb Ready!
"Bomb awaiting." Vanndana said.
"Good, on my signal." Meldar said.
"Waiting." Vanndana sighed.
"FIRE!" Meldar exclaimed.
There was a huge puff of smoke and a cracking sound. Soon the bomb was out, and heading towards the blue ship that Meldar wanted destroyed.
"Angela!" Libby screamed.
"Look out!" Eustace squealed.
"Mom!" Tee yelped.
Angela saw the puff of smoke and she heard the crack. She saw the danger coming her way. With the agility of a cat, she steered the ship safely out of the way of the missile. The bomb was then sucked up into The Junk Man's ship. Angela set out a semilator and covered her ears. A huge explosion was then heard that rocked the entire space world.
"We'll be seeing no more of that one." Meldar said evilly.
"Nice one." Vanndana said.
"Now, on to the business on this planet." Meldar said.
"I'll ready the packs." Vanndana said.
"No, we'll go without." Meldar said.
"Yes sir." Vanndana sighed.
Slowly and carefully Angela steered her ship into the planets atmospher. She could just see the smoke coming from the exhast pipe. She could smell the gasoline leak and she could see the red button that foretold danger. Slowly Angela steered the whole of her ship into a small crater. A huge dust cloud formed and clouded her ship. Angela slowly climbed out and surveyed the planet.
No trees, bushes or lakes could be seen. No animals, inhabitants or signs of life could be detected and it looked like a planet that was decellant and dull. The sky was blue and pink, the ground was green. There was a mountain peak to the left that was purple and the caves were small.
"What kind of planet is this?" Angela thought.
Meldar climbed from the towering peak of the tallest mountain and looked down. What he saw took his breath away. That saem ship, the same blue ship, was sitting in a crater no more than two or three miles away. Vanndana looked over meldar's shoulder and gasped. She had been sure they had hit the ship.
"Vanndana?" Meldar said.
"Yes Meldar." Vanndana said.
"Get the fuses." meldar hissed.
"Right away." Vanndana said.
"Noone ever messes with me!" Meldar hissed
What'll happen to Angela? Guess you'll have to wait until the next chapter. I'm very prud at how well this story is going. Hope you guys like it as much as I do.
