Hey guys, great news, I'm not dead, and I didn't stopped writing. Seriously now, sorry for the huge gap between updates. I had some business to take care of, work in other projects, writter block and other stuff. While I am coming back, I have to listen for you. So, I've open a poll, and you decide which stories I should focus more on.

Now, for this chapter, we have a little bit on the background of our dear Adara. No spoilers, even if you'll find out not five minutes from now. Anyways, hope you enjoy the chapter, leave your thoughts on the story, and without fur dear ado

Leeeeeeeeeeet's go

"So, how are they doing?" Lori asked on a walkie talkie, inside the van, where most of her siblings were inside.

"She doesn't seem to be hostile. A bit aggressive in words, but no physical measures," Luna's voice came from it. "We're ready for whatever

"Okay, any updates, call us," Lori said to the device. "Alright, Lincoln's managing to speak with that thing,"

"I still cannot believe we are actually doing this," Lucy said. "I mean, nobody thinks Ana, or whatever her name is, can hurt him?"

"He has regular fights with Lynn, she can't be better than her," Lana exclaimed. "Besides, Lynn and Luna are watching them, with two of these beauties," She grabbed a white gun and raised it up, struggling a bit.

"Put that down," Lola screamed, pushing the thing down. "We don't need to blast anyone to outer space," she added.

"Wait a second, I thought we only had two of those," Luan pointed out. "Where did you get the third?"

"Only two," Lana asked. "Guess one of them took my water gun full of mud instead of the canon,"

"Why you even have this in the car?" Lola asked.

"Just in case there's no mud nearby," she explained, earnings a disguised look from her siblings.

"Okay, first of all, like, totes ew," Leni said. "Second of all… Uh, guess I only had that."

"So, what's the plan after Lincoln finishes the talk, Lisa?" Lori asked.

Everyone turned to the nerd, who had two weapons, one was similar to what Lana had shown, but smaller, the other was black handgun. She had a red band tied on her head, and her cheeks had dark green and brown stripes painted on.

"First, I'll sneak behind them. If her body has the capacity to survive the fall after being pushed off the cliff, this friend of mine shall do the trick," she showed the white gun. "I will have my revenge for all of my projects being ruined,"

"Lisa, I thought we agreed on helping that alien," Lana exclaimed.

"Why shall I help that violent anomaly? She could represent danger to all of the human population. Just like Luan reminded earlier, she is with our brother, and you all saw what she's capable of," Lisa complain.

"Lisa," Lola said. "You have brought her here in the first place. Remember what she said, you just got a contact. Wasn't that what you wanted?"

"And now she is probably stuck here because of that," Lucy added. "You cannot simply waste her life,"

"Oh, don't worry about that," Lisa said. "After I'm done, I assure you I'll reacquire her corpse, for studies,"

"Lisa, that's literally not happening," Lori said. "Luna and Lynn are ready for any sort of danger. We won't let you hurt her unless it's absolutely necessary,"

"I expected this reaction," Lisa said, raising the black handgun, and pointed it towards her siblings. "Don't worry, you'll be conscious in a few minutes,"

Lisa pulled the trigger. After a few shots and sharp aim, all of her sisters in the van had been hit by needles. They began feeling sleepy, until they really fell asleep in whatever position they were.

"Lori, Lori, you there?" Lisa heard her jock sister from, the walkie talkie

Lisa grabbed the small device. "Lisa here. Lori's on her phone with Bobby,"

"Of course. Listen, you won't believe what happened,"

"Well, then, I'm listening," Lincoln said

"Okay, uh, let's see…" Adara was thinking for a bit, not sure how to start.

"Don't know where to start, eh?" Lincoln asked.

"I didn't know humans had mind reading abilities," she said.

"We don't. Some of us are just good at predicting and understanding what others are thinking," Lincoln said. "Why don't we start by who are you, where you come from?"

"My name is Adara. You don't know Ka'hal, do you?" She asked. "That's the planet I came from,"

" My sister, whose room you destroyed, is the one who understands of Astronomy" Lincoln said.

"Well, that's where my people, the Ámor, come from,"

"By your tone, it doesn't seem like a very nice place," Lincoln assumed.

"Actually, it kind of is." Adara said. "We're one of the lucky who doesn't suffered from the wars on most places, just like you," she explained. "Well, we have brave warriors who defend our planet, in case of any threat,"

"Yeah, we also have our defenses, but we never had to use it," Lincoln told her.

"Oh please, if you still use those satellites, the only reason you're safe is because you're too primitive for other populations to notice there is life in here,"

"Well, if your planet is so developed and without any conflicts, why did you leave?"

"Being a nice place doesn't mean I like it," Adara said.

"What you mean?" Lincoln said.

"I always hated the universal system , you know?" Adara confessed "The fact that females are only for reproduction, while men are the warriors or workers. To make it worse, I had no one back home. Nobody cared for me, so I just left," she explained.

"Universal? That's not how it works he-" Lincoln was brutally interrupted.

"I had seen many things, fought battles, worked as a slave, stealing to survive," she continued. "And trust me, there are lots of things that you want to keep away from here."

"Wow, that's… quite harsh, sorry you had to go through that,"

"Now, I just wander through space, avoiding what I can, doing what I need to survive," Adara explains. "And that's when I noticed the signal that machine built by her sister. I got surprised by the fact whoever rules this place to allow her to work with such things.l

"Yeah, she's quite young, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have…" Lincoln was interrupted.

"No, I mean, the fact of a girl working with science," Adara said.

"What you mean?" Lincoln seemed confused. "Like, you think girls can't work with such things?"

"No, it's just no one allows it," Adara explains.

"Uh, that's not the case here," Lincoln said.

"What? It isn't?" She asked

"Well, there are still some issues with it, but woman here can do whatever they want. They can be doctors, lawyers, engineers, take care of the house, or whatever." Lincoln explained. "And what you said about having no one?" He asked.

"Yeah, I never had a family, or friends. It was always just me," Adara said. "It's quite sad, but it's truth," she admitted.

"That's… quite a lot," Lincoln said. "So, what's your plan?" He asked.

"Well, I was going back to space, but for some reason, I cannot fly," Adara told Lincoln. "Guess I used too much of my powers to destroy that machine,"

"Couldn't you just, you know, take out the wires or something? You had to destroy the whole room?" Lincoln asked.

"Maybe it was too much, but one room was a small price for your planet," Adara said.

"Well, not in my sister's eyes," Lincoln commented. "Also, quick question, you think you would survive a fall from here?" He asked.

"Huh, probably. I've survived worse," she said.

"You know, you seem like a fine 'person'," Lincoln said. "Sorry about this, but it's for your own safety ," he whispered, placing his hand on her back. "Meet me back at my house at midnight,"

"What the heck do you meaAHHHHH!," she said, as Lincoln pushed her forward. He saw her fall, her body entering the leaves, being invisible. He turned around, seeing his sister in her military outfit, a few feet away. "Never trusted that alien," Lincoln said to her.

"Wow, I didn't expect you from all people to agree with this option," Lisa said. "So, what did she say?"

"Nothing much," Lincoln lied. He suspected his sister would try to do something to the outsider, so he had to make sure Lisa thought she was gone. "So, what did you do with the rest of us?" Lincoln ask. Unlike Lisa, he knew the rest of his siblings wouldn't be willing to simply end the life of that creature.

"Had to put them on a temporary state of unconsciousness," Lisa explained. "To put it simple, I made them sleep," she added, before he asked. "Probably waking up by now, we should go back."

"Good idea," Lincoln said. "Also, Lis, would you mind if I borrow one of your guns? Can't be too safe if she comes back, or more of them show up."

"Definitely, brother unit. I was just going to suggest that," Lisa said

They walked back towards the van, where most siblings were waiting outside. Luna and Lynn were nowhere to be seen, though.

"What were you thinking, Lisa!" Lori exclaimed. "To drug us and hunt that person?I swear if you did anything..."

"I didn't have to, Lincoln took care of the job for me," Lisa said, with a proud voice and smile. The siblings had a mad glance at Lincoln. He answered by wiggling his finger, and signed he would explain later to his siblings, without Lisa noticing.

"Well, that's just great!" Lori exclaimed. "And where are Luna and Lynn?"

"Right here!" They heard a voice, and the two girls popped from the woods, holdings their equipment. "Sorry, we both feel asleep. We don't know how, but we suddenly felt very tired," Luna explained. "So, where's the alien?"

Then they all looked at Lisa. It didn't take them a answer composed of words to know what happened.

"Come on, let's go," Lori said. "And Lisa, when we get back, we will have a little talk with mom and dad about some of your inventions," she assured.

The trip back home was silent. The dark streets being flashed by the van's lights. After Lincoln arrived, he went directly towards his room. It was night after all, and soon he had to go to sleep. Back there, Lisa handed him one of the white weapons. It was actually quite light, considering the size.

Lincoln began reading his comics until he saw the clock showing 11:55. Those who weren't already sleeping wouldn't be outside of their rooms. He grabbed the gun and headed downstairs. He went towards to the backyard, and sat on the two steps, and he wait. A couple minutes after, he saw a shadow jumping over the fence, and approached him very quickly. It grabbed Lincoln by the shirt and lifted him in the air.

"Are you out of your mind? You threw me off a cliff!" She exclaimed.

"Adara, I only did that, cause this was the other option," he showed her the gun.

"What the-" Adara said, grabbing the gun and dropping Lincoln. "How did you get this piece of armament?" She asked. "Only the most powerful of warriors had the opportunity to see one of these?"

"The same girl you pissed of a few hours ago," Lincoln said. "You want my suggestion, the best will be if she believes you're dead," he added.
