Chapter 5
After getting use to the quick speed of the car and relaxed comfortably, April was enjoying the car ride while Karai was humming to the music that was playing on the radio. "And there he is." she said.
April looked straight and saw the car that they were after as the driver saw them, and immediately pulled over knowing it was the NIB. As Karai parked the car to the side, she and April got out and went to the other car. "Hey, Mr. Owens. Can I see your drivers license and registration, please?." Karai asked. Then Mr. Owens took out his licence and registration and gave it to Karai.
With a smile after looking at his earth license thinking that his going to full them with that trick, Karai said "I'm talking about your Alien license and registration." Sighing and anxious to get out of here, he took it out and handed to her. "That's what I thought, you weren't supposed to leave the border of New York. What's the hurry Mr. O?." she asked. "Well, you see um well look."
Mr. Owens turn his head around as both Karai and April were looking at Mrs. Owens in the back laying down, and was getting ready to give birth. "Oh, I see well no worries Mr. O. If you just come out the car so we can discuss some important question, please and thank you." said Karai, as Owens got out of his car and worried about his wife and went to the other side away from the car.
Karai looked back in an saw that Mrs. Owens was ready to give birth, and she refuse to the one to do it. "Ooo, and April you handle this." she said leaving quickly, as April was like no way. "Say what?!. Come on!." said a upset April. "All you have to do is catch." said Karai. Then Mr. Owens was worried with fear and asked "Does your partner knows what's she's doing?."
"Of course my friend knows what she's doing, she does it all the time. She got an A in the medical field." Karai lied as she began to ask questions. Meanwhile, April was was going to the back passenger window that was open to help Mrs. Owens out, as she was in pain and breathing hard. "Um, yeah that's right you just keep breathing and push. Your doing great Mrs. Owens." said April with a smile. "Easy for you to say kid." said Mrs. Owens as she started releasing her tentacles.
April smile dropped after seeing that and was getting disgusted. "Karai?. Dang girl, somethings picking. I think you should check this." suddenly April got wrapped up by Mrs. Owens tentacle and began waving her in the air, while April was yelling for Karai.
"So, where are you going exactly?." Karai asked in her integration mode. "Well, you see we're expecting someone. A spaceship I mean." he said wanting to leave Earth badly. Karai said "Really?. Wow, the ships captain didn't ask us for permission to land here nor even calling us about coming." "Really?. Well, that's because." before Mr. Owens can explain to Karai, they heard April calling her.
"Karai!, Karai!. A little help please." said April while being slammed on top of the car. "You're doing a ok April. Great job." said Karai, who was happy that's not her. "Ok my butt Karai!. Ow, ow, ow, ow!." said April as she was constantly being use as a drumming stick. "So, anyway you were saying." Karai said trying to keep a straight face, and try not to laugh April's misfortune.
"As I was saying is that this ship was a one way ticket out of here. Don't get me wrong, I love Earth it's my home away from home. It's just the alien that came here is bad news for all life on this planet." said Mr. Owens. "Are you talking about the alien that crashed two days ago?." Karai asked after figuring out why Mr. and Mrs. Owens wanted to leave Earth so much.
"I'm going to have a headache after this!." said April while still being shaking and then was suck in side the car for a little bit, "Sorry ma'am." she said and went to the other side of the car and got hit up against the car roof, and then went back inside an this time Mrs. Owens shoot April out the car, letting her go and shot the baby out.
Mr. Owens came over to see his new born daughter, as Karai came over with a smile and said "Congratulations Mr. O. It's a, ah girl squid." and handed back his licence. As for April she never have seen something so cute and wiggly alien baby before. "Ah, Karai this is a really a cute baby. You know something?. She's kinda cute and sweet." said April who happy to see the baby alien, until the baby threw up green goo on her face and some went into her mouth.
She then spit some of it out and looked down at the baby as she put her tentacle in her mouth and started sucking it with innocence. "How, cute." she said giving the baby to Mr. Owens and went back into the car. After getting things settled and letting them go, Karai went back inside the car while April was done cleaning herself up and smelling her hand to see if stink.
"You know something April?. Have you seen how he looked very scared he was?. What ever this alien that crash landed two days ago have gotten the poor guy spooked." she said starting the car. April who was trying understand that too and ask "What's next?." "The next thing is to find clues, and I know where." said Karai heading back to New York Times Square.
When they made it to the square, Karai brought both of them some freshly baked soft pretzels and then brought some magazines. "Thanks for the pretzel Karai. And by the way, how are we going to find out the crash site by looking at fake mystery magazine's?." April asked taking a bite of her pretzel. "That's easy April. The magazine's that I selected is not for reading fake news, but give us the unexplainable story." said Karai, showing April the picture cover of the magazine that said "An Alien have taken my Husband's skin!". Said the Wife.
"Really?." asked April raised her eyebrow. "Really, really. Next stop is the farm house." said Karai putting that last half of her pretzel in her mouth, and went back inside the car. "You like pretzel's don't you?." April asked getting to know more about Karai. "Yelp, and I love pizza. Like this one time I beat all of my brothers in a pizza eating contest, and ate every slice without getting sick." said Karai with a grin.
April still trying to understand how four Mutant Turtles are related to Karai, but just left it alone and just go with the flow as they headed to the country side. While arriving to the same farm that the alien crash, April got out of the car and getting to go knock on the door. "Hold on April, don't do that. It will make things easy if we just stand out here sight seeing the view. It helps keep things calm." she said as she and April were looking around.
Then the farmers wife came out of her house and ask "Are you kids are doing a fundraiser?." Karai and April turned around as Karai did the talking "Oh, no ma'am we're New's reporters in Highschool trying to get the scoop of the century." she said with a smile. The farmers wife was a little bit suspicious of the two girls and asked "You girls are not here to make fun of me are you?."
"Of course not ma'am. This report is part of our grades in our publishing class." said April, as the Farmers wife felt convinced about the two and said "Please come in. Do you girls like lemonade?." Karai said cheerfully "Yes, please and thank you." As the wife of the farmer brought a tray of two glasses of lemonade and a plate of cookies, she put it down on the table as April picked up to hers.
"So, tell us what have happened that night when it happened." said Karai. "Well, young lady. It was like any other night, we were arguing about going on vacation and what not, and then when something have crashed at the front of our yard he went out to investigate it." While explaining the event that happened that night, April took a drink of her lemonade and then spit it back out without the women seeing her, and then April looked at her drink and see heavy dirt particles making her put it back down.
"When he came back inside the house he was different. I can't explain it but it was him, but it wasn't him. It was something wearing him." she said breaking down crying. Karai took a bite of one of the cookies, then "Ow." she said as she felt her tooth chipped, letting both her and April know that these cookies are hard as a rock.
"What did he say before he left?." Karai asked holding her cheek were the pain was. "He said give him sugar and a cup of water. And made suger water." said the Farmers wife wiping her tears, and continue talking. That's all that Karai needed to know about the alien, as she nudged April as she put on her shades and April did the same.
Then they both got up as Karai pulled out her neuralizer and then flashed at the women, as she stopped talking. Taking off her shades she said "There are no such thing as aliens, you didn't see a spaceship it was a satellite dish that fell down." April was confused what just happened after flashing the women.
"What hold up, what did we do?." she asked putting her shades back in her pocket. "This April is a device that wipes away memories of any year, month, and hours or in other words the neuralizer." said Karai showing her the device and put it in her pocket. "Wait I get it now, so when we do the flashy it will erase their memories and we replace it with false ones?." said April sounding very excited about her job.
"Yelp, that's what we do. Do you want to make up a memory?." asked Karai with a grin, knowing that April is going to ask anyway. With a huge smile April said "Oh, yeah. Alright listen up your husband was cheating on you and you kick him out of the house, and you find a better guy then that pig."
Before April was about to leave with Karai, she forgot one thing."Oh, and by the way you need to go to the city, get yourself some real dresses and shoe's from Macy's. Then go find a plumber to clean your faucet, take baking class because your cookies are hard like bricks. And, finally please hire a decorator to come and fix this place up, cause. Crap." The women just sit there after hearing that, as April walked outside to see Karai collecting some soil sample from the crater into a small device. "Hey, Karai?." she asked.
"Yeah, what's up?. And great cover up story back there, you were really in your feelings." said Karai waiting on the results from the device. "True. Um, I was wondering when will I get my own flashy?." April asked. Karai looked at April with a smile and said "When you become a pro like me." In other words not at this moment, as April was snapping her fingers and hoping it wouldn't be that answer.
After seeing the green light from the device, Karai got upset. "Crap it's on green." "So, green is a bad sign?." April asked. "Answer me this question April. What type of creature that likes to eat and drink that suger in it?." said Karai. "Ah, girl I washed Jeopardy last night and they ask the same question too. What was the answer again?." said April thinking hard about it.
Then Karai pull out her phone and said "Zed we got a bug." and hanged up and walked out of the crater. "So we don't like bugs?." asked April. Karai was hating the fact that they have a bug on the planet, and that's not good at all. "April want you to imagine a big huge alien cockroach, with unlimited strength, and has a extremely short temper running around in a human suite in New York. Those that sounds cool to you?." said Karai taking it very seriously.
"That's the complete opposite of cool. But the question remains, what does it want?." April asked wondering about it herself. "That buddy, I wish I knew. We really have our work cut out this week." said Karai unlocking the car.
Meanwhile in New York, the Alien Farmer stopped driving his truck as he looked at his target. It was an old man who was locking up his jewelry store, and then he was putting his pet cat in his bag. "Come on Orion. We're visiting a dear old friend of mine, I love this sweet planet." the old man said calling a cab and went in. Then Alien Farmer followed the cab.
As the cab stopped at a diner, the old man paid the guy and went inside while the Alien Farmer had an idea to get what he wants. Inside the diner a tall middle age guy was reading his newspaper and then saw his old friend. He got as the old man out his bag down and gave each other a hug, and then took a seat.
The tall guy started talking to the man in there alien language. "My friend you're no longer safe here. We discovered that the Bug is here on Earth." he said with concern. The old man nodded his head and said "I see well he won't be getting it, and I'm not going to leave this beautiful planet that I call home."
Then the guy said "Sir, he will kill you. Please reconsider." "My friend I always knew that one day it happen to me, but I pray to God in his son's name to strengthen me when that day comes." said the old man pulling out a small rounded box on the table. "Is that what I think it is?." he asked with worry.
"Oh, no that's just diamonds for your kids to eat. Have you ordered the food?." the old man asked putting his napkin on his lap. "Yes I have ordered. It's your favorite cheese spinach salad ravioli." said the tall guy, making the old man happy. At the kitchen counter the chief brought two plates of food that they ordered, as the guy came up to take it.
"Hey, where's Henry?." asked the Chef. "I gave the kid a break." said the Alien Farmer wearing the guys apron, and when he mean break he really mean he broke the kid in half an stuff him in the cubby. "To the Galaxy." the Tall guy said raising his cup, while the old man did as well. "And, forever in peace."
Then the Alien Farmer came to them and set the plates down, and letting some cockroaches on there food. The old man spoke in english "You can kill us both bug but you won't get the Galaxy." "Now, I don't know about the second part the first one. Well." the Alien Farmer said as stabbed the old man's neck, and then did the same with the tall guy and kill them.
Then he took the box and headed out while everyone was screaming, as he was about to leave the old man's cat hopped on the table and hissed at him, making him turn back and hiss right back and went out to door after throwing one of the cooks out away that trying to keep him going anywhere. And, then left the diner with what he thought it was the Galaxy in inside the box.
That's one evil Bug, if you ask me.
