Response to Guest: My response to you is here because I couldn't sent one to you privately, I actually have a DeviantArt page and over there you'll find this like character sheets, episode title cards, and picture to go with two scenes per chapter. Also I decided to put someone's in between [ and ] so I don't have to always said "name" said and things like that. Alright, let's do this.

It was Friday at 3:00pm and Elliott, Gertie, and Michael had returned from school. ET was waiting for them in the living room wondering where they were. He knew that they called it school but he didn't know what it was for. So he decided to ask them about it.

[ET] "I see you guys have come back from this place you call school."

[Elliott] "Yeah and let me tell you, I'm looking forward to the weekend."

Elliott said as he hung up his backpack. Michael and Gertie did the same as all three of them went to the kitchen to get a snack. ET also joined them to ask them his question.

[ET] "So what is it like at this place called school?"

Elliott had a feeling ET was going to ask that. He didn't know how he was going to explain it but he had to at least give it a try. So he sat ET down and began to explain.

[Elliott] "Well let me try to explain, school is a place where kids learn about things like math and history. Each day lasts seven hours and people go there for about fifteen years."

[ET] "For every single day of those years?"

[Elliott] "No, we don't have school on Saturday and Sunday. And we usually get weeks off for curtain events. For example, we get a week off for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the beginning of spring."

ET was listening to Elliott very closely not interrupting once and nodding. Once Elliott stopped talking for a minute Michael walked in and joined in on his brother's explanation to tell them about Summer.

[Michael] "Don't forget about Summer vacation. It lasts 3 months and it's between one grade and another. It's really hot during summer but it's really fun."

[Elliott] "Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that."

He was somewhat ashamed of his forgetfulness. ET was really intrigued of this school thing. After some thinking he realized why it sounded so familiar to him.

[ET] "Oh my goodness, I actually had a very similar thing back at my home planet. I remember it was called Galactic Educational Enrichment Facility and I was there for almost fifty years."

Elliott was shocked when he heard how long ET was there. He had a feeling that ET was around that age because of his age and appearance. However, he could've been a child seeing how he seemed to have acted like one last time he was there. So Elliott decided to ask about ET's age.

[Elliott] "Wait a minute ET, how old are you anyway?"

[ET] "Well I guess we're all asking questions now, to answer yours I'm seven hundred years old and still young."

[Elliott] "Really?"

ET nodded his head in response to Elliott's question. It looked like their afternoon was going to be filled with many questions about each other. So once the kids all got something quick to eat Elliott got something for ET. Once he got it he went back into the living room and sat next to ET.

[Elliott] "Do you remember that candy I used to get you inside?"

ET recognized the colors of orange, yellow, and brown in that plastic bright orange bag anywhere.

[ET] "Of course I do, I can still remember the delicious taste of those…. What do you call them again?"

[Elliott] "They're called Resse's Pieces."

Elliott said in response. They both remembered that night like it was yesterday.

[Michael] "Wait a minute, that's how you got him over here?"

[Elliott] "Yeah, I made a trail of it from the forest to the house. I'm surprised you guys didn't hear any crashing from my room that night. ET had some trouble getting in there."

Gertie was waiting to ask ET her question and she was beginning to get impatient. ET noticed this so he asked if she had anything to ask him.

[Gertie] "Yes I do! Did you really die that one day? If you did, how did you come back to life?"

ET still remembered the events of those 2 days. He remembered how pale his skin became and how much pain he was in. After a moment of silence ET sighed and answered.

[ET] "Yes, I did. However, my race isn't meant to die until it's our true time. So if one of us did die before then a number of my people use all of their healing powers with something really strong in the universe to save one of us. And as for the death age, my kind only lives to be two thousand years old."

Once ET finished his speech Elliott, Gertie, and Michael were blown away with what they heard. They never thought such power could be used to actually erase death, even an advanced alien race like ETs.

[ET] "Now that we've got that settled I need your help with something. Since I'm now living here on Earth I really want to think of a way to go out and see the place."

After a second of silence Elliott said what anyone would've said.

[Elliott] "But that could be dangerous. Someone from the government might see you and figure out that you're an alien and take you away."

ET knew Elliott would say that.

[ET] "That's why I need your help with this. We need to think of a way for me to get out of the house but also so no one figures out the truth."

[Elliott] "Well in that case we'll need to get as much as possible to make a convincing disguise. I know we have some clothes that will fit you and we might even have a wig of some sort. After that we'll look at what we've got and take care of it there."

So for the next hour all four of them went around the house looking for clothes for ET's disguise. Elliott found a green t-shirt with a circle pattern, Michael found big red shoes and a baby blue under shirt, Gertie found small gray pants, and ET found a spiked up black wig. After they all met up ET took the clothes and put them on. Once ET came out wearing the clothes he turned around.

[ET] "So is this good enough? Because I feel like I need more to complete this."

[Elliott] "I think there are still a few things you need. People will definitely question why you don't have any ears."

[ET] "Well I actually do, they're just too small to see."

[Elliott] "Yes but even if we say that to people they'll most likely not buy it."

[ET] "Well then what are we going to do about this?"

After some pacing in silence Michael said-

[Michael] "I think there's some stuff like that at that one make-up store in the mall. We need to make sure we get it into the right shape and make sure it's the right color. I don't know how we'll be able to keep them up when ET goes out in public but I'm sure we'll figure that out once we get there."

Elliott looked at the clock on the wall, the time was 4:37.

[Elliott] "Well we're gonna have to wait until Monday. The make-up store closes at 6:00 and it stays closed for the weekend."

ET at first looks down upset but he very quickly gets an idea, but looks up with a smile.

[ET] "I have an idea. I remembered I actually have a power to send a replicate to a curtain place anywhere I can think of. I think I might be able to get to that store before it closes. And If I'm careful, I can get what we need back over here in time."

[Michael] "Wait a minute, if you always had this power, how come you didn't think of using it the last time you were here to let your friends know they left you?"

Both Elliott and Gertie looked at ET thinking the exact same thing. Even ET was trying to find an answer to that question.

[ET] "I guess, I don't know actually. I guess I was so bummed out that I didn't think of that. Anyway, Iet's get my plan into action."

Elliott, Gertie, and Michael looked in ahh as ET began to use his now known power. ET's eyes roll into his head and Elliott gets really nervous and scared as this happens. Then ET begins to make odd sound effects.

[Elliott] "ET!"

He ran to help ET but stopped as a purple ora from his forehead begins to glow as a smaller green version of himself fades out of it. It looks at Elliott and smiles and says in a high pitched voice-

[the replicate] "It's okay, this is what happens when I use this power."

Elliott backs up once this happens. ET's little replicate flies in a split-second to where he was thinking of, that place being the mall. Once the replicate was there it knew it had to hide during its trip. As it was running looking for a hiding place it was almost stomped to death a few times. It saw a giant plant pot and hid in there first. As it poked it's head out it looked for the make-up store. After a second of looking it eventually found it and it ran as fast as it could. While doing so it tried to stay as hidden as it could. However though, it did hear a man question-

[man] "Did a green earless gremlin run under me or have I been drinking too much coffee?"

The replicate decided to hide underneath a bench nearby until it could find a better way to get to the make-up store without being seen. It noticed that one of the tiles on the ground looked to be loose. With an idea in its head, he pulls out the loose tile and lifts it above him as he then runs to the make-up store and makes it. Once it was in it looked for what Michael described to him. The replicate was sneaking around the store trying to wonder what it needed. But when it looked at its right hand it was slowly beginning to fade away. That meant that it was starting to run out of time and it needed to hurry. That was when it overheard a costumer at the cashier.

[costumer] "Excuse me, do you know where the skin molding is? I need some for an art project."

[cashier] "Oh yes, come with me and I'll show you where it is."

The replicate knew that's what it was looking for so it followed the two to where the skin molding was. Once it was there it looked around and found the one that was the color of ET's skin. There was only one problem, how was it going to get it to ET's house without being seen? It noticed that its right arm was completely gone and now its legs were fading away too. Not only that, but it was starting to glow. That's what happens when replicates go back to their host bodies, the replicate body's limbs and torso fade away and the head shines brightly and then the next second, its back in the host body. It may have been not the smartest idea but the replicate knew it had no choice now. It climbed the hangers to the skin molding with it's now fading left arm. Once it got to the skin molding it bit right onto the plastic wrap. The costumer and cashier noticed.

[costumer] "What is that thing?"

[cashier] "I don't know but it looks hideous. Wait a minute, is it glowing?!"

The two began to back away. The replicate was glowing brighter and brighter while grabbing on to the plastic wrap with his teeth. And then-

*POP

The replicate along with the skin molding was gone. The costumer and cashier looked at each other in shock and confusion.

[both] "What just happened?!"

Meanwhile back at the house Elliott, Gertie, and Michael were beginning to worry.

[Elliott] "It's been almost an hour, when is he gonna regain consciousness?"

After a few seconds there was a bright flash coming from the room ET was in which got the 3 siblings attention. When they made it into the room ET was smiling with his hands behind his back.

[Michael] "Well, did you get it?"

[ET] "Does this answer your question?"

ET then pulled out the skin molding from behind his back, confirming that the mission had been accomplished.

[Michael] "Thank goodness, now we solve the issue with the ears."

However Elliott put his hand up.

[Elliott] "I think ET's been through enough today. Besides, tomorrow's Saturday, we have the whole weekend to work on that. For now, let's just relax or something."

[Gertie] "Yeah, why don't we watch some TV while we wait for Mommy to come home."

All four of them agreed with that and went into the living room. Once they turned on the TV it was on the news and it showed the reporter at the make-up store.

[reporter] "I'm here at a make-up store in the city mall where just moments ago, a little green creature had come in here, grabbed on some skin molding and blew up out of nowhere. We don't know how this happened but it's the oddest thing to happen ever since that alien tried to take over."

Elliott, Gertie and Michael looked at ET with a look that said "Really?" on their faces. ET noticed this.

[ET] "Okay, maybe I need to dial down the replicate thing."

[Michael] "You think?"

ET put up his sholders and the main four had a good laugh about it as they continued on with their day.
