Oh No!
Libby felt like being hammered when she stepped into the vastly crowded mansion owned by Maciolo. Everyone was jumping up and down for joy in seeing her safe. But she also saw a little spark of fire in Angela's eyes. Everyone was so excited to have her back that they had forgotten all about Angela. Even Nancella and Boclar even ignored her.
"Were you hurt?" Cindy asked.
"No, well my arm was broken." Libby said.
"I can't believe Angela went and saved you." Jimmy said.
"Yeah she's such a scrouge." Sheen said.
"She is not." Libby defended.
"Yes she is." Jimmy said.
"Angela just doesn't care about anyone but herself." Sheen said.
"She doesn't care about noone." Jimmy said. "Even Tee and Meldar."
"That is not true." Tee said.
"I still stand tight on my theory of her not being a good mother." Jimmy said.
"Jimmy, you are stupid." Libby said.
"No, Angela is." Jimmy said.
"She has done alot for us." Libby said. "And only me and Tee see it."
"She is the best mom in the world." Tee said.
"I for one think you both have had your heads scrambled." Jimmy said.
Angela peaked her head out from behind a corner and frowned. She wasn't a scrouge and she was not a bad mother. She took care of her children and she enjoyed life. It might seem like she was a scrouge because she hadn't spent alot of time with her kind. Twenty years on Velexia had made her forget about all about earth. She hadn't raced in a good five years and that had given her that understood attitude that made her unbearable.
"Looks as if we have someone spying on us." Sheen said.
"Angela, it's not what it..." Libby exclaimed.
"I see what is going on." Angela said.
"Angela, we are so sorry." Cindy said.
"No, I am." Angela sighed.
"For what?" Jimmy asked.
"For not telling you guys that my attitude hasn't been like this always." Angela said.
"It hasn't?" Jimmy asked.
"I stopped racing five years ago." Angela said.
"We know that." Sheen said.
"But you don't know about this." Angela said.
Angela pulled her left pant leg up and allowed the scar that was being hidden shown. Jimmy, Cindy and Sheen gasped. Libby, Carl and Eustace gaped at the scar and everyone else had their jaws dropped. The scar was in a perfect lightning like fashion. And it was on the heel of her leg. Angela pulled her pant leg up more and another scar was seen. This one was on the calf and it was a perfect half circle. The pinkish, red glow around it made it look almost new. Pulling up her pant leg a pit more, Angela allowed her kneecap to be seen. Another scar, very large and in the shape of a triangle, was very clearly seen.
"When I was twenty." Angela said. "I had a racing accident."
"Satan and the San Antonio Handicap." Libby said.
"Yes, I have gone through over fifty surgeries." Angela said.
"And you haven't been able to race." Jimmy said.
"Because of the scars." Sheen said.
"No, because of my leg." Angela corrected.
Meldar looked into the window and with a sheepish grin on his face, he wrote down a small note into a notepad. His sinister eyes getting bluer and glassier than ever. His mind was quickly shifting phrase after phrase of his plot. Angela was going to be wiped out of the picture for good. He had it all down. That leg was her ticket and his to be great. She was the only one that could stop him. And she was the only one to attract so much of his attention.
"What'll happen with Meldar?" Libby asked.
"What do you mean?" Jimmy asked.
"I'll fight him of course." Angela said.
"You might have to fight him now." Sheen said.
"Why?" Cindy asked.
"Because he is looking right at us." Sheen said.
Everyone looked at the left side window. Meldar, his face pushed up alongside the window pane. Angela gave out a hideous scream. Meldar shouted himself and fell from the pane. Angela disappeared only to reappear infron of Jimmy. There was a blue light and before they all kne it, Meldar shrieking, threw himself at his mother. Angela screaming, punched him left and right. Before they all knew it, Meldar slapped Angela alongside her leg. Angela sent a hideous scream and with a bounty jump, sent Meldar reeling to the other side of the room.
"Angel, here." Jimmy shouted.
Jimmy tossed Angela her red generators and she caught them. Placing them on just in time she just barely missed a blue sphere directed right at her. Sending another sphere, she caught Meldar inside. Before they all knew it, the sphere exploded. Red gunk splattered the walls and made everyone fall every which way.
"Where, where am I?" Sheen asked.
"That's a good question." Jimmy said.
"I think we are in trouble." Cindy said.
"Who else is in here?" Jimmy asked.
"I'm here." Libby said.
"So am I." Eustace said.
"Anyone else?" Jimmy asked.
"Yeah, me fool." Tee said.
"Were are we?" Cindy asked.
"You are in the cell hold in Meldar's ship." Angela said.
"Angela, but..." Libby stammered.
"That explosion made us all vulnerable." Angela said.
"So we are hostages?" Cindy asked.
"Yes you are." Meldar hissed.
"Meldar!" Cindy exclaimed.
"Welcome to your home for a long time." Meldar hissed. "So get use to it."
Angela picked herself up and slamming her fists on her hips she blockaded the rest of them. Meldar hissed and a blue sphere formed itself around Angela. Before tehy all knew it, Angela was gone. Meldar sent a volley of insults and laughs out and then left. Vandanna quickly came into the cell hold afterwards and gave them a small ration of food.
"Where'd you take Angela?" Cindy asked.
"She is with Meldar." Vandanna said.
"Don't you hurt her." Libby exclaimed.
"Oh, she'll be treated well." Vandanna said. "And she'll have a nice bed to sleep in."
Vandanna left laughing and Libbyy felt the air stiffen with hate. She could just see what Angela was going through. Her son was trying his very best to not only get something he didn't deserve, but he was also trying to mate with his own mother. Libby couldn't hold it in anymore, she started screaming, crying and banging the walls. She just couldn't stand the thought of Angela being forced into something that she didn't want to do. They had to do some and that something had to be done quickly.
What will happen to Angela and will Libby get the rest of them to work together to save her? Next chapter coming up soon. Acosta and Badwolf, thank you for your reviews.
