"And that's our target. Has anyone got a question?" A slimy, 5-foot creature with one bug-like-eye said as he turned off the television screen, it's four tentacles flailing around, as it turned to a whole crowd of similar aliens. Three raised their hands
"You, to the left" The alien at the television said.
"Thanks Commander Lock… I just wanna ask…" One of the aliens started.
"The other left!" Lock interrupted annoyed.
"Thanks! Why are we after this Earthling?" The alien to the left asked.
"I told you people that five times already. Because, this earthling, despite his appearances, is the Earth Supreme Potent." Lock answered. "Or at least that's what we heard from these two aliens we met. Their names were Gaxoid and Nebar or something like that. I didn't really like them. Now, you at the back, your turn, ask away."
"Alright…" The first alien started.
"Not you, the one at the back!" Lock sneered.
"Is it true you wear those bunny slippers that the Earthlings wear?" The alien at the back asked.
Lock glared at the alien. "Okay… you at the front-right… ask away!"
"Same question." The first alien stated.
After that, Lock screamed in anger, "GUARDS TAKE THEM AWAY!"
A bunch of taller aliens burst in and grabbed the two. Once the two aliens were removed, Commander Lock cleared his throat.
"Okay, the Earthlings are having some kind of a celebration tonight. We are going to switch their fireworks with a rather ingenious device. You are going to sneak in. The blasters you've been equipped with will send enemies into an alternate dimension. Use them if anyone sees you…"
Calvin stared at the board. Mr. Spittle was there, doing nothing but stare. Calvin was plain bored. He hated the "No talking" rule of detention, he didn't want to do home work; he didn't even remember what he'd done to deserve detention. Calvin hadn't done anything bad, that anyone knew of. There was nothing to do but stare, and stare, and stare…
"Calvin," a mysterious voice cried. "Wake up!"
Calvin's head jerked up," But… I'm not asleep!"
"Calvin! No talking! An extra two hours of detention for you, loud mouth!" Mr. Spittle screamed.
"But…" Calvin stammered.
"Calvin!" The voice repeated. "I said wake up!"
"But…""I said no talking!" Mr. Spittle roared.
Calvin froze. Mr. Spittle's head popped off of him and began circling Calvin, repeating the words, "No Talking" over and over.
"Wake up!" The voice cried.
Suddenly the detention room began shaking. Calvin fell out of his chair. Two desks fell over and buried the young child. The voice began repeating "Wake up" as Mr. Spittle's head continued circling Calvin. With the room shaking, Calvin being buried under desks and the voices, there was nothing for the six year old to do, but scream.
Calvin woke up with his dad shaking him. He looked out the window to see that it was still dark outside. It figures, a nightmare and a premature waking.
"It's going to be one of those days!" Calvin thought."Once again, wake up!" He screamed. "You're going to be late for school!"
"It's New Years Eve and Saturday!" Calvin muttered sleepily.
"I know!" Calvin's Dad said. "I just thought that doing this drill would make it easier for you to wake up when it's time for school. And waking up early is good for your…"
"Character!" Calvin finished as he glanced at the alarm clock. "Dad, it's 4: 00 in the morning."
"I know. I was about to go on a nice bike ride." Calvin's Dad laughed. "How would you like to come with me?"
"About as much as I'd like to go to summer school!" Calvin answered as he clutched the blanket.
"I can sign you up for that." Calvin's Dad offered.
"No!" Calvin screamed.
"What's going on Calvin?" Calvin's Mom asked from her bedroom.
"Mom! Make Dad go away!" Calvin roared.
"Honey, you tried." Calvin's Mom replied. "Let us go to sleep."
"Okay." Calvin's Dad answered hurt as he left Calvin's room. "Okay."
Calvin turned to Hobbes, who had just woken up.
"Jeez Hobbes," Calvin said. "Is there something wrong with my father?"
"Definitely!" Hobbes muttered. "The nerve of waking us up a half hour earlier than we usually wake up.. Some people."
"Sometimes I just wish he'd change." Calvin said.
"I agree." Hobbes replied.Calvin's Dad walked to the garage. He got on to his bike, nearly in tears.
Was it his fault he wanted to spend time doing what he liked? Was it his fault he wanted to do that stuff with his son? Was it his fault that he wanted Calvin to mature into a good person? Was it his fault that he loved his son?
Calvin and Hobbes wandered through the kitchen. A little bit over an hour had past, and the two were
playing like always.
"Spaceman Gordan," Spaceman Spiff said to his partner. "We must get to the intergalactic meeting at 6:30!"
"Right you are Spiff." Gordan replied. "However, first we must steal the bombs from the evil cereal killer."
"Bombs? Evil Cereal killer?" Calvin said. "Good job, Hobbes. I like the names."
"Thank you." Hobbes bragged. "Tigers are born with a quick wit."
"Let's just get back to our imagination!" Calvin said.
"Agreed."
"Gordan, you get the bomb squad and I'll get the bombs back." Spiff ordered.
"Roger that Spaceman Spiff!" Gordan agreed.
Calvin grabbed a chair and carried it to the closet. Hobbes went and grabbed two spoons, two bowls, some sugar and the milk.
"Spaceman Spiff is entering the Cereal killer's lair. Will he succeed in finding the bombs? Can Spaceman Gordan retrieve the bomb squad in time?" Spiff yelled aloud. "Only time will tell."
Calvin climbed up the chair and reached for his Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs. They were his favourite cereal after all. Meanwhile Hobbes sat at the table with the stuff he had fetched for breakfast.
"Spaceman Gordan has succeeded in his task. He waits alongside the bomb squad and awaits Spiff." Spaceman Gordan announced.
"And Spaceman Spiff grabs the bombs in a quick bound. He runs for Gordan and the squad, but, oh no! It's the terrifying Cereal Killer!" Spaceman Spiff cried.
Calvin had grabbed the Sugar Frosted Bombs. And as he got off the chair he had come face-to-face with his mother.
"What's this about a cereal killer?" Calvin's Mom said as she grabbed the cereal box. "I thought I told you not to eat this junk?"
"But Mom," Calvin complained. "What am I supposed to eat for breakfast?"
"If you want breakfast so much," Calvin's Mom offered. "Why don't you have some oatmeal?"
"And Spaceman Spiff refuses the deal. He escapes with Spaceman Gordan and his life. Now the duo rides for the intergalactic meeting." Spiff said.
"I wonder why Mom won't let us eat Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs anymore." Calvin told Hobbes as they got seated in front of the TV "Can't she tell I love that stuff? Why won't she just change?"
"Shh! Lincon and Friends is starting." Hobbes hissed.
As Calvin took Hobbes to watch Saturday morning cartoons, Calvin's Mom read the nutritional value of the Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs cereal Calvin loved.
"A hundred percent of the daily allowance of Caffeine? And look at all the fruit and veggies needed to make these premature killers healthy." Calvin's Mom thought. "Why'd I ever let my kid touch these?"
And that's chapter one. Please Stay tuned!
