Would have uploaded sooner but computer caught a nasty virus! But back to full health now :)
This is the monster prison scene and the characters are all different versions of the originals. I'll show who's who at the bottom, okay.
Chapter Two: Monster Greetings
Sarah stirred in her bed until a low buzzing sound rang out, she groggily opened one eye to look for her alarm clock, she could do with some extra sleep to get over the horrible nightmare she just had. She reached further for her alarm but found nothing, then she reached too far and fell out of bed and hit the floor, hard. Instead of feeling a carpet there was a cold metal surface, looking up to her horror she saw she was in some kind of metal cell, the buzzing was coming from a flashing light in the ceiling and she now seemed to be wearing some kind of red uniform with 00005 on her chest and a weird logo on the sleeve.
"Hello? What's going on?" she called out. There was no response; instead the cell suddenly plummeted like a runaway elevator. Sarah screamed as the cell suddenly came to a halt, then the far wall opened to reveal a far bigger room, she didn't want to go in but the cell wall forced her inside. She stood up and walked to the middle of the room where a table and chair lay when...crack! She looked down to see she had stepped on a small chair next to two other small chairs and a table, though if she wasn't imagining any of this then the small chairs were probably normal sized and she was the one that was out of proportions. She picked up the crumpled chair and took in just how big she was now.
"You know when they said they caught a new monster...I was expecting more than just two red trees!" said a voice out of nowhere. "Silence T.O.M., she'll hear us!" came another voice with a British accent. "How? Trees don't have ears!" said the one called T.O.M.
Sarah spun round to locate the source of the voices but saw nothing. "Hello? Who's there?" Sarah called out. There was a brief whirring noise and then a "ahem" from behind her. Slowly, she turned round to see on the large table was a bronze coloured robot the size of a regular person; it appeared to be made out of various bits of metals. It looked at her with a welcoming smile on its face; "Delighted to meet you…" it said with an English accent "…I am Doctor Sprocket PhD."
Sarah took a step back, a robot had just spoken to her, then suddenly something got tangled up in her feet causing her to fall. As she sat up she looked to see that there was some sort of green vines wrapped round her legs, she reached to grab it when it grabbed her. Panicking, she threw it at the table, narrowly missing Dr Sprocket. The vines twisted and stretched until it formed some sort of body and arms, with roots acting as tentacles, then the arms reached for the top and pulled out what looked like a giant tomato but with facial features, gasping, it spoke.
"Wow, that was great, I wanna do that again!" the mutant veg said.
The Doctor sighed "You'll have to forgive T.O.M, but he is a brainless vegetable!"
"Hey, who needs brains? I'm living proof that they aren't necessary and…" T.O.M. paused, then an alarmed expression appeared on his face and then frantically pointed at his mouth to Dr. Sprocket.
"Hmm…it appears he's forgotten how to speak again?" Doc explained "T.O.M, just breath in then go aah!"
T.O.M did so and was relieved to have his voice back, acting as if he hadn't spoken in years. Sarah all the while was staring with eyes wide at the monsters, thinking it couldn't get any worse when something landed on her head, and then what appeared to be a giant snake dropped in front of her face.
"Wow, look at you! I know what you're thinking, it's your first day in prison and you can take down the toughest one here, well let me tell you that Fang watches a lot of wrestling!' the snake said.
Then Fang somersaulted off the giantess' head and started doing different wrestling style moves. Fang was indeed a snake, but his head looked more like a velociraptor, he had arms and legs, and it seemed he was able to stretch his body to a longer length, that was until there was a crack and Fang crumpled to the floor, rubbing his back as the other monsters joined him on the floor.
"Look, she's lost for words!" Fang pointed at Sarah, who was still sitting on the floor, eyes wide and mouth open.
"She? No way it's a boy, look at his boobies!" insisted T.O.M.
Fang and Doc both looked at each other with a weary expression on their faces. "We need to have a talk" said Fang.
"That can wait till later, gentlemen, we seemed to have drifted from the priority here!" said Sprocket "We have a new member, clearly frightened, and we haven't made a very good first impression!"
Sprocket and the others then turned to Sarah who glared back at them in fear. Sprocket cleared his throat (or pipes!) then asked "Might we ask your name, madam?"
"Sarah." she answered.
"No, no what's your monster name? You know like "Look out, here comes…" T.O.M paused, waiting for Sarah to fill in the gap.
"Sarah." she repeated.
T.O.M thought about it for a second. "I like it, easy to remember!" he said. Then there was a loud buzzing noise. "Yes, dinner!" shouted Fang.
Sarah watched as the monsters gathered around their table, T.O.M just engulfed the chair Sarah had stepped on into his vine-made body. Then three tubes came down delivering a large ham for Fang, numerous bits of metal covered in oil for Dr Sprocket and a ton of seeds for T.O.M., Fang began to swallow his down in one go, Sprocket sipped his oil in a gentlemanly manner and T.O.M dived head first into his food. Sarah got up, praying she was just hallucinating, then a large bowl landed on the floor filled with large amounts of meats. "Oh don't worry, that's Rex's food." said Fang.
"W-who's Rex?" asked Sarah. There was then a loud roar from behind her, she spun round in time to see a large dinosaur lunge at her, sending her flying to the other side of the room. Flat on the floor she looked up at what did appear to be a dinosaur but then it looked down and she saw it had the upper body of a dog! Its growls then turned to playful pants and started to lick her all over the face. Sarah managed to prize the dino/dog off her, it really did have the lower body of a dinosaur and the top half of a dog, compared to her it was the size of an ordinary dog: this must be Rex!
"Rex, here boy!" called Fang "Your foods here, don't scare the pretty lady." But it was too late for that, as Rex joined the others in the meals, Sarah started banging against the walls, making them shake. "Please! Somebody! I don't belong here! Let me out!" she screamed.
With that, a giant door opened and out flew a military general wearing a jet pack, he looked like Mr.T without the bling. "Monsters, get back in your cells!" he ordered. The monsters turned and went into individual doors.
"Oh thank goodness, a real person! You are a real person right?" asked Sarah, worried she was looking at yet another monster.
"Madam, I assure you I am a real person! The name is General I.N. Monger! Now follow me, it is time for your orientation!" he called. Turning his jet pack and flying back through the door. Sarah took slow steps and followed the general out the room.
They entered a cavernous hallway, where several scientists and security personnel looked up from their work to stare at her. Two helicopters hovered like flies around her head as she stepped on to a moving conveyer belt.
The general used his jet pack to buzz around her in the air. "In 1950, it was decided that the public could not handle the truth about monsters. So the government convinced the world that monsters were the stuff of myth and legends. And then locked them away in this facility which we call Area 52."
"But I'm not a monster!" Sarah protested. "I'm just a regular person. I'm not a danger to anyone or anything!" At that moment, she accidentally bumped into one of the helicopters buzzing around her head, and it crashed to the ground.
"Sorry…" Sarah apologized. Monger kept the same expression on his face as the medics whisked away the injured pilot.
"Darling, you are ten times the size of an average human and you weigh 23,640 pounds. Say you didn't like Florida, we'd be in a world of hurt!"
"But that's not true, I love Florida, my grandparents live there!" Sarah said as they continued through the enormous prison. "How long will I be here?"
"Indefinitely," he replied
Her heart sank. "Can I contact my parents or Eric?"
"Negative," he replied firmly.
"Do they know where I am?" she asked.
"No, and they never will," Monger told her. "This place is an X-file. Wrapped in a cover up and deep fried in a paranoid conspiracy. There will be zero contact with the outside world."
"This isn't fair!" Sarah protested. "I haven't done anything wrong. There was this meteorite and-"
"Yes, yes," Monger cut in. "We were tracking it. You absorbed whatever was inside the meteorite."
"So if you know what turned me into a giant, then you can fix me?" she pointed out.
"I suppose it's possible but I wouldn't count on it." he said. Soon they reached the others monsters cells, Sarah could see into them and saw what they were doing: Rex was scratching behind his ear with his big clawed leg, Fang was lifting weights with his tail whilst reading a car magazine, T.O.M appeared to be taking a mud bath in a giant flower pot and Dr Sprocket was surrounded by different items trying to build what looked like a giant computer.
Monger ordered the conveyor belt to stop past the cells by a large TV screen. "Now, as the new monster, you are authorized to know the background of your new inmates," he said pressing a switch in his watch. The TV came alive and showed a group of scientists around a large sphere shaped machine, "A group of scientists discovered a fossil in South America containing Tyrannosaurus DNA and decided to use the latest technology to recreate and revive the extinct animal. However, one of the scientists accidentally had some of his pet Alsatians hair on his lab coat and it got mixed up in the process, creating a 30 foot tall mixed breed that they called Dogzilla, but we here call him Rex." The TV showed Rex jumping out of the giant machine wagging his long tail and sniffing everything in sight.
The screen changed to show a cage full of snakes being loaded onto a plane. "When these zoo animals were being transferred to a new location, one escaped and got contaminated by a secret chemical compound that was also on board. The result caused a rapid acceleration of the snake's evolution, to which we now call Fang." The screen showed Fang struggling out of the plane toilets, clearly not happy with what he had seen.
"Now this handsome fellow you may not recognize, but he is the greatest inventor in the world, he created a scientific machine that would give humans the ability to transplant their brains into a mechanical vessel; unfortunately there was no way of putting them back!" An image of a young man with a neat moustache was shown stepping into a container linked to another container. There was a bright flash then from the other container stumbled out Doctor Sprocket PhD.
"And finally a snack food plant was trying to increase the life expectancy of their produce, and so they scientifically altered a tomato, the result caused the vegetable to come to life and become an indestructible force of plant life that will never have an expiary date, Transmutation Oxidized Metaplasia." T.O.M was shown climbing out the door after the screaming scientists and then just sat there laughing at nothing in particular.
"Well, that's all of them and now its time for you to be shown to your cell, the prison psychologist redecorated it to keep you all calm like!" Monger explained. Sarah looked into her cell; there was a picture of a kitten in a tree just above her bed.
Sarah looked back at the general with tears in her eyes. "But I don't want a poster," she said "I want a real kitten, hanging from a real tree. I want to go home."
"Oh come on little lady, please don't cry," Monger said. "It makes my knees hurt. Don't think of this as a prison, just think of it as a hotel you never leave because it's locked from the outside."
The transporter pushed Sarah into her cell. "Oh, and one other thing," the general added. "The government has changed your name to Titana."
Sarah slumped in the corner of her cold, grey room, hugging her knees. By now she was supposed to be at home celebrating with her family. She swiped helplessly at the giant tears slipping down her cheeks. She'd never felt so hopeless and alone in her entire life.
