Chapter 3: We need one more
"Chris? Are you there? Hel-lo?" A voice said, waving a hand in front of his face. However, that seemed to work because Chris was finally snapped out of his trance.
"What?" He asked, looking at the two.
"You okay, buddy?" Danny asked.
"Oh, yeah! I'm fine! Great even!" Chris lied, hoping that they will buy the answer but they didn't as Danny raised an eyebrow.
"No. You're not." Danny reacted.
"Guys, really. I'm fi-"Chris got cut off as Cathy spoke.
"Aww, come on! We already know something's troubling you!" Cathy responded."And there's no point in hiding it." She added while Chris sighed with defeat.
He knew she was right.
"Okay, okay. Don't you feel like we're missing someone? To me, it feels like we're an uncompleted team. Doesn't that bother you? What about you, Cathy? Doesn't it make you feel leftout because there are only two guys and one girl?" Chris said, seeing Cathy to look down at the floor with sadness when he said the last part.
"Yeah… I kind of do feel like… leftout." Cathy admitted.
"You see what I mean? We are the uncompleted team who busts alien." Chris said. It was silent until Danny spoke up.
"Don't worry; when we fight that alien, we will also be looking for another member." He reassured him and Chris brought a smile on his face. Just when he did that, their v-coms beeped, alerting them that there was an alien on loose. They all pulled their sleeves and saw it blinking then looked at each other as they nodded. The three put their hands up and shouted:
"MBC: Power up!"
-In front of the school- (A/N: where the benches are)
"Any aliens?" Danny asked, with his blaster ready.
Chris sighed."No. There's nothing." He answered after scanning the place with the A-scan. Danny's eyes suddenly went wide because he thought he had heard something.
"You're going down!" He shouted and he started to fire the blaster.
"Um… Danny… you okay?" Chris asked, uncertain.
"Huh? What? Oh yeah, I'm fine!" Danny commented as Chris rolled his eyes until a noise was heard… kind of like the grunts of fighting… The three ran towards the source and there, they gave a gasp of shock.
What they saw was a girl with the same height as almost as Chris. But what really shocked was that there was an alien… attacking the girl. But the girl looked like it was winning. However, the girl's back was facing the three.
"Hiyah! Take that, you big bully!" She shouted, after jumping in the air with the bottom of the foot facing the alien's face. She hit it, causing the alien to fly back and the girl landed on the ground.
"Woah." Chris said, blinking.
"Double woah." Danny noted.
"That's what you get for messing with me!" She yelled. Unexpectedly, it shot a purple electric beam at her stomach which caused her to fly backwards. Somehow, the girl was on her side while giving Danny, Chris and Cathy a heart attack from the fall. The girl growled and before she took off, she turned her head slightly and saw a certain blue-haired guy staring at her with eyes wide. Then, she turned her head to face the alien and took off. While running a thought occurred to her.
Is it just me or is that guy incredibly cute? She thought then a voice came.
Focus, girl! You're in the middle of the fight while thinking about that guy who you barely met! … despite the fact that he is cute. You can stalk him later! The voice told her.
She sighed mentally. The girl was about to punch it until the alien did a swift movement with its right arm. A medium-sized streak of purple came out of its claw and it swiped the girl off her feet so that she was inside the streak. Then, the alien did a criss-cross with its arms as a rounded object that looked like a round, coffee table except without the top so that it was opened and it had no legs; the bottom was flat like a circle emerged from the ground.
The girl went inside the round object as it was filled with a mysterious purple liquid. She came to the surface, shaking her hair which was soaked; the liquid felt like water. She then looked at the alien who roared.
After what it seemed for hours, Chris had finally snapped back to reality, realizing that the girl needs help.
"Guys! We got to save her!" Chris said, running to the alien who had the purple energy crackling from its raised right claw. It was about to launch its attack until something had blasted at it so it lost the crackling purple ball of energy and all you could see was smoke rising from its claw. When it got blasted, it screeched while making the girl to flinch at the noise.
The alien turned to its attacker only to find Chris with a triumph look on his face but soon it feel away once he saw the purple energy on its left claw. It then launched at Chris's feet, causing him to fly through the air then down with back facing the ground. Chris then fell down with an hard impact that it caused some dirt to jump out from the ground while the blaster was twirling in air then skidded.
He groaned in pain once he was sitting with the arms behind (A/N: The position of sit ups) him. Chris saw the alien with the purple electric ball of energy was once again formed on its good left claw. He gasped while the girl jumped out of the liquid. She then saw the two figures nearby and looked at the guy with brown hair while it was holding something.
"Hey, can I borrow that?" She asked the guy but she didn't wait for his reply. Instead, she just grabbed it out of his hands.
"Hey! I was about to give you the answer!" Danny exclaimed.
"Nobody cares!" The girl shouted, running."Wait! How do you work this thing?" She halted as Cathy went up to her then showed it.
Chris closed his eyes, waiting for the worst to come.
But it never came.
Curiosity got the best of him and he opened his eyes as he heard shouting while the alien screeched in pain because its left arm had smoke rising once again.
"Whoo-hoo! I found out how you work this thing!" The girl shouted and beside her, was a very grumpy Danny who was grumbling.
"Well, yeah! That's because the girl in the pink suit told you how to use it AND it was my blaster! You just took it without my permission!" Danny growled.
The girl shrugged, tossing it to him."Besides, you can't even catch it." She told him as his blaster kept on jumping out of his hands. At the last one, he caught it.
She rolled her eyes before running."Hey, blue-guy! You alright?"
"I have a name you know!" Cathy growled once the girl was out of earshot.
"Unless, you want to reveal yourself! Because once I said your name, she will know that we're different." Danny replied.
Chris saw the girl calling him.
"Hey, blue-guy! You alright!"
He shook his head, staring at her.
Blue-guy?
He looked at himself… shaddup…
"Uhh… yeah…" He responded, almost stuttering. When the girl was almost close to him, she suddenly felt something hard ramming into her side but when it did, it didn't let go of her. It was still around her waist once she was at the ground, pinned with her eyes closed and she put her hands on that something, trying to get loose.
She opened her eyes and saw the claw of the alien was around her waist and however, the arm was still attached to itself but got stretched.
Chris scrambled up, taking his blaster that is evolving into the Double X. (A/N: Um… I'm not exactly sure what it's called but if you watched the episode The New Recruits and at the end when Danny and Sam pulled down the table, Chris evolved his blaster to that blue thing which shot out short blue streaks…um…) The machine had shot out a short blue streak at the alien. It struck it at the side, while at the same time it screeched and roared.
The attack released its arm and the girl got up. Before she could run, she got stopped.
"This is only for real pros!" Danny told her and he took off.
"Why you-" She clenched her teeth while her hands were curled into fists and then she took off, running after the guy.
Danny saw the girl right beside him and was shocked."How did you-"
"I have my ways! And I am capable of tearing this thing down!" She informed him, running ahead of him.
"Oh no, you don't!" Danny exclaimed, soon catching up to her.
Chris and Cathy suddenly stopped of what they were doing because they saw Danny and the girl being so competitive.
"Wow… they're competitive against each other!" Chris stated, looking at the girl who had just punched the alien.
"Uh huh." Cathy agreed as an idea popped in her head."I know why!"
"Why?" Chris asked.
"Danny has a crush on that girl!" She squealed loudly and excitedly.
"I DO NOT HAVE A CRUSH ON HER!" Danny yelled.
"Uhh…" Cathy said, sheepishly.
"Then, why. Are. You. So. Compet- ARGH! Give me a second!" The girl yelled as she jumped in the air, doing a somersault. With her two feet, she struck the alien into its ugly face. She went over it then landed on one of her feet (with the leg bend) while the other leg was on her knee. The alien soon fell unconsciousness, creating dust as it fell and Danny looked at it.
"Then, why are you so competitive?" She asked, getting up as the hands were on her hips.
"Uhh… because I don't like to lose! Especially, against a girl like you! You seem weak to me, despite that you seem stronger to others." Danny concluded.
Her mouth was opened as she was speechless… speechless but angry.
"I seem weak to you? I just knocked down the thing and you decided to call me weak!" She yelled."Well, I will tell you something, you sad excuse for a hero! I am a black belt in Karate! I can kick your ass any day!" Shy shouted.
"So, why didn't you do it now?" Danny asked while yelling. Just then, he suddenly fell down to the ground, giving Cathy and Chris another heart attack. Then, the two looked at the girl who was steaming. Literally.
"You happy now?" She growled, dangerously as Danny groaned. And then, she stormed off. She was about to storm off until the alien came to the consciousness state. However, the alien suddenly flew back as it crashed into a tree, sliding down in pain.
The girl turned on her heels after she had punched the alien then stormed off. Chris got out the vacuuvator just as soon as she left. The alien was finally at last got sucked away.
Danny got up as Chris looked at him.
"You just got so owed by a girl!" He laughed, holding the green container which contained the alien.
"That's gonna leave a black eye!" Danny muttered.
Author's Note: There you have it! A new girl got introduced and Danny got punched in the eye from the girl! Who is the girl? And oh, the alien is the same one from the last chapter except it has different powers each time, they face it! Pelase revoew!
