"Oh my........." said Mom, trailing off slowly. She stared for a moment, then gave them the tightest hug they had ever recived in their entire life. Pretty strong, for an old woman. Sam and Calvin 2 winced as the jarring memories entered their heads. "Mom! Let up! You're squishing, err, err, us, I think." Mom looked down to see Calvin and Sam turning blue fron the force of her hug. "Graaah....." said Calvin, panting. "Sorry, dears! Cybernetic implants do take a little getting used to, you know." "Uhhh......Right."
Calvin 2 interupted the chitchatter, asking "Mom, we're just here for some provisions. We need to work on the PROBLEM." As he said the former, he made a gesture towards the bloody sky. Calvin's mom blinked and said "Sure, dears. The usual?" "Yep."
After a short period of time, Mom came out with a hovering orb following behind her. In it was packs and packs of freeze dried food, not that gross ice cream candy stuff but real dinners, like spaghetti and meatballs. "Here you go. Will you be careful out there with these young kids? You know, if something happens to them, it'll either make you dissapear or maim you. "We know, Mom." Sam said gravley. "They have weapons of their own."
A couple hours later, Mom 2 was watching the box take off. She knew that the occupants couldn't see her, but she waved anyway.
---Underground- Evil Lair- 2008 A.D.----
Deep underground, things that were better left unseen were lurking. Currently,one was being berated by his captian. "I want those pests TERMINATED as soon as they get out of the Warp Stream! Do you hear me, Ooshalmeck? TERMINATED! And take theur parents, too. " "Aye Aye, sir." gulped Ooshlameck, or Oosh, fearfully into the microphone. Call: Terminated flashed across the screen as his superior hung up. As he turned to make the proper arangements for the termination of our heros, he mused to himself "I wonder what's so important about these human's that the boss would make a call worth 30 gerzlems a second."
---Orbit- Alien Space Station- 2008 A.D ---
"Sir!" one of the aliens on board the orbiting ship said. "Yes?" asked their captian, fixing the unfortunate slug with a beady glare. "It had better be good, Zloob. I just got off the link with that COMPLETE IDIOT Ooshlameck." "There appears to be a small red ship on the monitor, Your High Vileness." "WHAT!" The poor, poor piolet was ripped out of his crash webbing and thrown to one side. Indeed, the monitor showed a red ship rapidly approaching. "ARRRGH! CONFOUND THAT SPACEMAN SPIFF! SEND ALL OUR BEST FIGHTERS! NOW!"
---Approaching Terran Orbit, 2008 A.D---
Spaceman Spiff hissed as a bolt of frappe ray brushed his ship, sending a charge through his body. Bringing her around, he shot the two Bug fighters that has been sneaking up on him. Or trying to, anyway."Darn it! These fighter are all coming out of the Alien Space Station...... AARGGGHHH!" Spiff was hit! HE spiraled rapidly tward Earth, the Bug fighters moving away as he freefalled to his doom......
Or so they thought. In reality, Spiff was attempting to land. The smoke and flames coming from his ship were a dieversion, to make the fighters think he was not going to see the day end. Spiff leveled out. If he'd never been here before, then why did the house beneath his look so familliar?
---Warp Stream, Time unkown---
"So you're sure the first thing is in our house?" "Yup. Either in it or near to it." "Can't we track it?" "We can when we goet out of the Warp." "Speaking of which....." Sam pulled the box over to the proper exit. BRRRZZAAP! They apperaed over their house....And saw Spaceman Spiff fighting of tree monsters!
