Blurb
Moving herself slowly and carefully from the wall Angela felt the hot breath of sadness overwhelm her. The hot and stuffy air was enought o make her sniffle and the foggy floors made her eyes water. Holding her nose with one hand and with her other guiding the wall in which she was traveling by, she stepped by and past a round tube like machine that looked like the heater. The steam and fumes that were coming out of it made the water coming from her eyes come out faster and faster. Her heart felt like a weight in her chest and she felt that she was barely moving.
"Angela is coming?" Vandanna asked. "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure." Meldar said. "She always comes."
Angela's heart filled with anger and frustration. Her son was smart, almost to smart. Although she didn't know this Vandanna person, she had a feeling she was also smart. Slowly reaching above her head, she pulled herself into the air vent. Climbing and squirming her way into it she followed the waves and turns it took until she hit the place she wanted to go to.
Libby was chained up llike a dog with shangles and handcuffs. Her face was battered and bruised and one of her arms was in a sling. A puddle of blood layed at her side and Angela saw a few tears fall into it. Libby's hair fell into many arrangements and angles that her face was consumed. Angela now felt the pity hit her stomach like a brick.
"Psst." Angela said.
"Huh?" Libby whispered.
"Libby, up here." Angela whispered.
"Angel! Hi." Libby exclaimed.
"I'm coming down." Angela said.
"Please be careful." Libby said.
Slowly pulling a small knife out of her pocket, Angela pushed the vent door out. It landed in a metallic clang onto the floor and Angela dropped down unto it. Libby stood up shakily and walking over to Angela, she moaned all the way. Angela stooped down and looked at the wounds on her body. A broken arm and nose with bruises all over the place was all she could see. Scooping Libby up Angela slammed the cell door open and ran out.
Before they had gone far, the doors of the cell room fell down and a red light went off. They both heard a hideous laugh and then they heard a hissing behind them. Angela squiunted her eyes and slowly turning about, she shifted Libby to her back. Libby hid her face in Angela coat back and awaited the fight to come.
"Well, Well Well." Meldar said. "If it isn't my mother."
"And my son." Angela said.
"I thought we would meet again." Meldar hissed.
"We meet to soon." Angela stated.
"Ah women, the lower of us men." Meldar laughed.
"You have it all wrong." Angela said.
"Oh have I." Meldar hissed.
"Yes, we women are far better than man." Angela said.
"Does that include fighting?" Meldar hissed.
"Considering the way things go." Angela said.
"Well, lets check that theory out." Meldar laughed.
Meldar shot a blue sphere out and Angela caught it within a few seconds. Flinging it over her shoulder, she sent a red sphere back. The red sphere caught Meldar and he was squashed onto the floor. Angela sent another red sphere and he moved out of the way just in time. Meldar then sent a blue lightning bolt at her. Angela bypassed the bolt and sent a red bolt at him instead. The bolt almsot caught him, but he moved out of the way.
"Libby run!" Angela screamed.
Libby jumped from Angela's back and ran a few steps before turning about. Angela was now in a red sphere that was racing towards Meldar who had placed himself into a blue sphere. They through themselves at eachother for hours before they both fell onto the floor exhausted. Meldar's blue sphere was the first to fall. The Angela allowed hers to go. Slowly walking towards her fallen, battered and bruised son she laughed.
"You lost this battle." Angela stated.
"This is only the begining." Meldar hissed.
"Achieves aniecs bides." Angela said.
Meldar hissed up at Angela and with a bound he floated away. Vandanna was nowhere in sight. The door was blasted away and before Libby knew it, she was being scooped up into Angela's arms. Out the door and into the fresh air they went with the sweet smelling scent of victory pungent in the air. The ship behind them hovered and then flew away. Angela looked back once and utter only one word which Libby hadn't no intention of saying herself.
"We'll rest here." Angela said.
"Are you sure Meldar won't find us here?" Libby asked.
"He is long gone." Angela said.
"Angel." Libby said.
"Yes dear." Angela replied.
"I think your son has a real problem with his mental condition." Libby said.
"Yeah, I saw that too." Angela said.
"Why?" Libby asked.
"Why what?" Angela asked.
"Why do you love him so much?" Libby asked.
"He's more than just a son to me." Angela said.
"What do you mean?" Libby asked.
"He's jealous because I won't be his girlfriend." Angela said.
Libby was silently put to sleep a few minutes later. Angela had given her a medicine to dull the pain and to make her sleep as she fixed her arm. It was almost five in the morning when she woke up. The first thing she noticed was that Angela was sleeping beside her and that a cool breeze was swiflty brewing about them. Libby quickly shook Angela awake.
"What?" Angela asked.
"Look." Libby said.
"What?" Angela asked again.
"My arm." Libby exclaimed.
"Yeah, I fixed it." Angela said.
"But, but it is not broken." Libby stammered.
"Many things can be done with these babies." Angela said.
"I wish it could control Meldar." Libby said.
"They can." Angela said after a moments pause.
"Huh?" Libby replied.
"They can control him in his sleep." Angela said.
"But, how, whhy haven't..." Libby started.
"It's called, waiting for the right chance." Angela said.
"Oh, when are we going back?" Libby asked.
"Right now." Angela said.
Angela stood up and hitting her hands together both she and Libby disappeared. The red sphere reappeared and then it disappeared. The trees moved slowly to and fro in the wake of the upcoming ship with the hideous dent in the side. A fuselage line was dripping and there was a small crack in the windshield. Before landing, Meldar appeared and floating away he gave a signal to Vandanna. Vandanna nodded and quickly consumed the ship in a cover up shield. Meldar floated away towards Maciolo's mansion. He had alot of fear, hate and defiance in his eyes. Both of his hands were in fists and he had his jaw set. He had the wealthy looks of a man in a dangerous situation.
What will Meldar do? And will Angela confess her secret to the others? Will King Goobot and the rest stay together now? And most importantly, will Meldar break through his mental insaneness?Wait until the next chapter.
