Chapter 6 alien scrapple
once the biscuits and gravy had been devoured it was back to business, begrudgingly Curry opened the cellar door to retrieve yet another bucket of rations
"beef medley my ass..." he thought grabbing the purified water on the way out
Mary and Luisa stood shoulder to shoulder in the kitchen staring down at a very strange "carrot"
"Does...it have arms? or something?..." Mary whispered puzzled
Luisa simply raised her cleaver and did what had to be done to put the poor thing out of its misery, as the "carrot" began to wiggle after death she quickly swept it into a cast iron skillet and called over her shoulder "Anything is good with enough salt and butter!"
Mary began to laugh for the first time in days Praying she was right. outside Jay and fujima we're having a rapid discussion, fujima didn't even stutter during the encounter and soon turned on her heel back to the dining table
"He botherin yo-" "N-N-NOTHING" xu said cutting Mary off
"I'm sorry but what smells like microwaved fish bait?" Jay asked as the smell of the butted and salted "Carrot" was beginning to admit pathetic squeaks smelling worse and worse by the second
everyone, wanting to alleviate the smell decided to have breakfast outside and made to convert the now ruined cast iron into a weapon despite the protests of the chard and petrified "carrot"
"OOOOO *Slam* KAY!!!" as Luisa slamed down the reconstituted beef medley she looked around at everyone's surprised expression and continued "we got planets and planets of aliens to fight so we shouldn't fight each other"
"Ag-greed" Xu said quietly as Mary snorted "Yeah sorry I got asshurt when I learned you wanted to leave me for dead and immediately called for a replacement" she said glaring at Jay
"well I'm not sorry you survived and just glad to see you all right" toasting her then taking a drink of coffee
Luisa spoke up again "you and I both know the whole team did everything in our power to take you home..." she said tearing up "it was... easier this time since I didn't have to carry three of you back in pieces" she choked remembering what happened when Damon was here
"I mean you didn't even have a f* foot for Christ's sake! no breathing nothin hun! nobody told me HQ been feeding us ground up alien dicks or whatever so we can regenerate like them" he said throwing his arms in the air exasperated
"A-And increases a-aggression level" Xu said realizing she had picked up the ruined cast iron and was currently plotting to destroy a squirrel from the nearby tree, collecting herself again she continued "I-its All In Kyoheis r-r-research log"
Mary looked down at her plate losing her appetite for several reasons and Jay held out his hand and said "truce?" she gave a faint smile gripped his hand with the intention to break it and said "Yeah sure buddy! but I'm leaving your ass behind if mine is on the line!"
Jeeeeeeeesus he thought as a faint scream at the frequencies dogs can hear escaped his mouth
in the near distance a siren went off and the Earth shook violently
"B-back to work!" Xu said thankful for a reason to ditch the twitching "carrot"
"Dawww let's go massacre sweeties" Luisa said laughing and grabbing her Kalashnikov rifle and police baton
