We finally made it to Oahu after about three hours. It was about ten-thirty at night, and it was breezy and really nice out, the palm trees waving. Insecto landed in some intersection between a neighborhood and some office building to let us down and then flew off into the skies. From hearing the ocean waves from a distance, I could tell we weren't that far from the beach. B.O.B., Doc, and Link walked down the neighborhood to head towards the beaches.
"Jenny," Susan, who stayed behind, told me. "Monger told us the invasion is likely to land on Lanikai Beach. So we'll meet you there. They'll know our presence, but not yours. So you need to try to weaken them so we can get rid of them."
"Okay." I said hesitantly. I knew I was invisible so I could walk through streets at night without being grabbed and raped or killed, but this was sure strange. If they needed me to sabotage the ET's, why did they need to be at the beaches first? I thought.Oh well. Those were the rules. "I'll see you there, Susie. By the way, what do they look like?"
"Um, they look like humans, residents say." She answered. "Good luck, Jen." My giantess friend ran down the same street the rest of the guys walked down. I probably stood in the middle of that intersection for about five minutes before a couple of cars came. Then I walked off to the sidewalks of the neighborhood, and then through bushes and over hedges in front yards. I had to be careful of course because I really don't want dogs to bark, then I get caught, and have my reputation go from worldwide hero to worldwide potential prankster.
Back on the sidewalk, I heard a meowing across the street. I tiptoed for some stupid reason to the other side and found a green-eyed calico cat scratching at some tree. Wanting to distract it, I stroked its tail. She turned around in confusion upon seeing nothing, and I again spread my finger on her nose like a nuzzle. The cat still had no idea what was going on, so I started scratching her under her chin. My little putty-tat tried to discover what was cuddling her, so she batted the air with her paw, claws and all. But the big part is one of her sharp claws got my finger, so I speed-walked past the cat. "Thanks a lot, kitty." I grumbled rubbing the wound. Unsure of what to do next, I picked up the walkie-talkie from my pant leg's pocket. The facility scientists and Doc turned it invisible with reproduced samples of the monocaine, so no one had the chance of seeing me.
"Hello? Guys?" I asked, later getting into the Buzz Lightyear act. "This is Invisoline coming in. Come in, you guys."
No answer.
"Guys?" I peeped again. "You have really got to be serious to not be there."
Still no answer.
"Link? Susie? Doc?" I grew a face of mischief. "Ah!" I screamed. "It's got me! It won't let go!" Static blared on the walkie-talkie.
"Je-!" Link cried.
"Jenni-" Doc's incoming interrupted.
"Jenny!" Susan finished the replies. Returns kept interrupting the ones before them, so it was crazy.
"Are you a-" Doc attempted to ask.
"What happe-?" Link asked.
"BILLIE!" B.O.B. screeched over Doc's walkie-talkie.
"I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay." I repeated to my friends.
"Jen, don't do that!" Link growled.
"Well, you guys wouldn't answer." I reasoned while giggling. "Serves you right any-hoo. By the way, where in the world are you?"
"Oh, we're on something like Malakai Beach..." B.O.B. tried to say.
"Lanikai, B.O.B." Doc said in the background.
"Yeah, that." B.O.B. continued. "So we're there with your-" His sentence was cut off as our friends in the background hushed him.
"Okay, guys." I grumbled. "My what? What? My iPod? My diary? You guys better not!"
"Oh, it's nothing, Jen." Susan explained. "We're just shooting the breeze with... I mean we're shooting our oncoming enemies while in the breeze."
"Okay...but what's mine out there?"
"Your...enemies!" Susan hesitantly said. "Our enemies are your enemies, right?"
"Right!" I said during a yawn; it was about five minutes until midnight. "So, when should I meet you there?"
"How about in five minutes?" Susan suggested. "See you there, Jenny."
"'Kay. Invisoline out." I chirped. Of course, with hearing no fighting in the background, I couldn't really believe they were fighting. Thinking about calling again to see if I was right, I ditched the idea, remembering I was almost there. It's probably about midnight right now. I thought. The guys definitely know that October 18th's my birthday. But now I'm in Oahu and that's quite the drive from here to Prince George. And I'm afraid I'm not with my family tonight. Oh, well...maybe while it's P.M.
Despite the city lights, I was beginning to see two faint lights about a block away. A stony walkway was turning into a sandy walkway, and I could already see the tidal waves. I heard rustling in the bushes behind me, so I decided to get out of there ASAP.
"Hey, there's shoe prints over there." B.O.B. commented. "It's Billie!" I turned my head to see the rest of the gang standing at a decorated picnic table with a few tiki torches standing closely; half of my friends were just regularly smiling while the rest were giving me the innocent toothy grin.
"Uh...hey, guys." I began unimpressed. "I thought we were fighting."
"Oh my," Doc exclaimed while looking at the clock on his walkie-talkie. "It's midnight already."
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JENNY!" A group of people screeched behind me jumping out of the bushes. To my surprise, that group turned out to be my family and Arnold. I yelped with glee and hugged everyone, especially telling Alexander "Happy Birthday" back. After all, we were twins.
"So..." I began after hugging my family and turning to the monsters. "Where are the ET's?" My friends shrugged, and B.O.B. tried doing the innocent cheesy grin, but because he has no teeth, it was his usual smile.
I giggled, and he draped a blue-and-purple lei around my neck. "There!" He stated proudly, trying to impress everyone. "Now you're prettier. It's hard to see those tiny train tracks at night." Everyone giggled and awed at his comment as they put on their hula leis. B.O.B.'s "neck" (if he has one) was too thick, so I fastened two grass skirts around him; the same went for Link with one skirt. Doc's bug head was too big, so we had to cut a hula lei and tie it back together instead of a skirt, seeing as the rest of his body is nearly anorexic. Susan wore a couple of leis as bracelets and a skirt used for tables around her neck.
About two hours passed, and after gifts and cake and ice cream, we just sat around and talked.
"So, you're really considering being Benzoate Ostylezene Bicarbonate's date, Jennifer?" Arnold asked me nasally. He and Stirling could literally pass as twins.
"Sure thing, Arnie." I replied, gazing at B.O.B. as he tried tooting on cone-shaped shells like bugles like the way you see natives do in movies.
"Hoo-rah!" I heard a familiar rough voice hoot from above. "Sweet sixteen, eh, Invisoline?" Monger asked me. "Sorry to y'all for not makin' it. Turns out back at the base, we've been hearing reports about UFO sightings at Tierra del Fuego, South America, and monsters, you need to get there ASAP!"
"Ouch..." I whispered; I turned to my family with my voice back to normal. "I guess I gotta go, gang." After through hugging everyone, I turned to my mom. "Better luck next time; I promise." I told her.
"Now, you be careful out there, Jen." She told me in stereotypical mother style.
"Always have, always will be." I told her while smiling.
Yes, I know. I'm a suckish writer. Hope you like the sequel, and please review.
