A 2nd Thread of Life

---Chapter 11---

After a few hours of sleep, the plane-jet’s monitor beeps to inform us, we are arriving at our destination…
Susan and I awake and I go over to the main door of the plane jet to open it up…
I say to Susan, “Ready Susan?”
Susan smiles and says, “I hope the surprise won’t make our surprise for them any less exciting…”
I reply, “Yeah…”
I open up the door and as it opens, we see that the plane-jet landed and rolled into a possibly temporary air hanger, clearly set up by Monger’s men…
As we walk out, we see Monger, Bob, Link and Dr. Cockroach standing in front of us, with Insecto outside the air hanger.
After we all say hello to one-another, Monger asks, “Are you both ready for your wedding gift?”
“I am!” I say excitedly and then I add on, “Only if you’re ready too Susan.”
I look up to Susan and she says, “Yes, I’m ready.”
Dr. Cockroach grins and says, “Well, let’s get outside the air hanger and show you your gift!”
Bob smiles and says, “And I built it myself!”
Link tells Bob, “Bob, we all pitched in to build it.”
“Oh yeah, I forgot,” Bob says in agreement.
Monger says, “Well, let’s go show you it!”
I say to Monger, “Alright!”
We all walk to the entrance of the hanger and Susan asks, “Where is it?”
Dr. Cockroach chuckles and says, “You’ll see it…”
----------------
As soon as we are outside the hanger, there is nothing in front of us…
“Umm,” I say confused, “I don’t see it…”
Monger says, “Turn around…”
We turn around and we are AMAZED!!!!!!!
---------------
They had built an enormous house! It was about 75 feet high and there was a huge door next to a regular sized door. Also, to the side of it, there was an enormous shack-like building, possibly for Insecto.
Monger breaks the silence saying, “I decided if you two are gonna be married…you might as well be living in a house instead of at the facility…you earned your freedom already twice…all of you!”
Susan says, “Wow!”
Link adds on, “And if you notice, we’re on the Californian shore-line, that way, we’ll be close to Susan’s parents and to Monger…and it’s got an EPIC beach!”
Dr. Cockroach nods and says, “Also, we’re pretty secluded so we won’t be swarmed by paparazzi.”
“That’s good,” I say to Dr. Cockroach.
“Well, if you like the outside, you’ll love the inside!” Monger says with a chuckle, “Let’s go in and check it out…”
We all follow Monger to the front doors…
-------------
The front doors were two of them… 1 regular sized door for Dr. Cockroach, Bob, Link, myself and any guest we could have over and next to it, one large door made for Susan to use…Insecto couldn’t go in because of how many more adjustments would have had to been made for Insecto height…
Susan opened the big door and we all stepped in while Insecto peered in one of the large windows…
Susan and I were AMAZED!!!!!!
-----------------
The house had an enormous living room! Not as big as the main room in the facility, but it was about 1 football field in size!
It had a 20ft by 15 ft HD TV! Plus, it had a small couch and a large couch that looked similar to the couch Susan and I used in our tent on our honeymoon. It also had a huge window which is where Insecto is looking in right now but I notice how there is a shade in case of watching a movie…
Plus, around the edge of the living room there is a staircase that leads to a second floor which was a platform around the living room edge to a bunch of rooms on the second floor!
Also, there are a few doors that were for Susan’s height on the first floor, where there wasn’t door on the second floor as the rooms for Susan’s height took up both floors where they were…And there are small doors next to each door for Susan so the rest of us can go into those rooms…
“Wow,” Susan says, “This is amazing!”
Link replies to her, “And this is just the living room! Follow me!”
Link walks over to a door on the first floor for Susan and says, “Open up this door…”
Susan and I walk over and Susan opens up the door and we both look in and we both are stunned in awe!
They had moved everything from Susan and my rooms at the facility and put them together into the large room!
They put my small bed on top of Susan’s bedside bureau and my clothing bureau was on top of Susan’s bureau as well…
Also, they put my bookshelf on top of Susan’s large bookshelf. Plus, on one side of everything bigger for Susan, there were ladder rungs for getting up to on top of them.
“Wow,” I say, “But, Susan and I don’t need separate beds…if we managed on our honeymoon, we can handle it now too.”
Susan blushes and says, “Yeah…”
----------------
We then are shown the rest of the house…
Everyone’s else’s rooms, which were moved for the new house, from the facility…
The Dining Room, where we would be served by professional personal chefs three times a day and offered food service 24-7.
The other rooms, the large ones we all went in, while for the second floor, Susan peered through the doorway, while Insecto looked in from the windows…
---------------
After the ‘Grand Tour’(hehe Monsters vs. Aliens Soundtrack pun) was over we went back to the Main Room to sit down…
Monger asks, “So, do you like your new home Ginormica and Paulankey?”
“We love it!” Susan says for both of us.
Dr. Cockroach smiles and says, “Well that’s great!”
I say, “Now everyone, you gave us a great surprise…now we have a surprise for you…”
Link, Bob, Monger and Dr. Cockroach look confused.
Bob says, “Oooh! Did you build us a house?”
Susan smiles and says, “No Bob…”
I say, “During our honeymoon, Susan and I had some very romantic nights and well… Susan, you tell them…”
Susan blushes, smiles and says, “I’m pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

---Chapter 12---

As soon as Susan says that, a silence begins with everyone in confusion.
Link chooses to break the silence by doubling over in laughter!
Link says in between laughs, “Really? Wow, way to go Paul!”
Dr. Cockroach says, “I wonder what the baby will look like? Perhaps, a Punnett square will allow me to figure it out…”
Monger adds on, “Well thank goodness that the house has so many spare rooms.”
Bob says, “Wait, What does ‘being pregnant’ mean?”
We all stare at Bob and then we all say to Link, “Just go give him The Talk already!”
Link says, “Fine! Come on Bob…we need to have a Talk…”
“OK!” Bob says cheerily and follows Link to outside to give him The Talk…
---------
Soon enough, Susan, using a large phone Dr. Cockroach made for Susan to use in the house, to call her parents to give them the news…
While Susan was on the phone, I was sitting in the living room with Dr. Cockroach watching TV while Dr. Cockroach was scribbling down on a pad of paper a Punnett square.
Dr. Cockroach mutters, “Alright, since Susan’s white hair was able to overcome her natural brown hair because of the Quantonium, it is dominant over her original hair color, so possibly white hair. And your fabric powers could be inherited along with Susan’s size. Blue eyes are dominant over hazel, so probably blue eyes will be inherited. And that should do for now…”
Susan walks over and sits down on the large couch and is smiling.
I say to her, “So I’m guessing it went well?”
Susan nods and says, “They’re overjoyed!”
“That’s great!” I say happily.
Susan smiles and says, “Now it’s great they live so close by so they can visit when ever they want once the baby is born!”
I reply jokingly, “We’ll have to have the chefs be ready with everything nutritional for you because how you’ll be eating for two.”
Susan laughs and says, “Right.”
Dr. Cockroach interrupts, “Actually, I need one last thing for the punnet square…”
I ask, “What is it Dr. Cockroach?”
Dr. Cockroach says, “I need to know how recently in each of your families that there have been twins in order to calculate the possibility for twins…”
Susan says first, “Well, my Uncle Steven’s family had twins about 5 years ago…”
I continue, “And my family hasn’t had any twins since before I was born.”
Dr. Cockroach scribbles down on the pad and he smiles and says, “Well, there’s a 50% chance of twins since Susan’s side has twins and your side Paul, hasn’t had any in a while…”
“Ok,” I say, “Thanks Dr. Cockroach.”
“It’s nothing,” Dr. Cockroach replies with a smile.
Susan asks Dr. Cockroach, “Dr. Cockroach, could you build a sonogram machine so we can see the babies in a few months?”
Dr. Cockroach nods and says, “Of course, especially since I’ve been given access to real parts and equipment and not garbage only, it will be a piece of cake!”
I reply, “Awesome that would be great!”
Suddenly, Link and Bob return from the Talk and Bob looks more confused than ever…
Link sits down on the couch and says, “If he forgets this…you’ll be telling him it next time Doc!”
We all chuckle at this and then we all decide to go and have dinner and afterwards, we go and watch the sunset…
We all go to the shoreline and we sit down to watch the sunset.
I say out loud while sitting on Susan’s shoulder, “This is going to be great!”
Susan smiles and replies, “Yes…yes it will…”
-----------------
I wake up to the sound of Bob shouting out, “Guys? Where are you?”
“Clearly, Bob forgot about where everyone’s rooms are,” I think to myself.
I look over a few feet to where I could see Susan’s head, as she was still sleeping soundly…
I walk over and nudge her whispering, “Susan, wake up… today’s the day!”
Susan slowly opens up her eyes, sits up, yawns and says with a smile, “I know! I can’t wait!”
We both got up and got out of the large bed and got dressed…
I look over to Susan and I could clearly see the baby bump on her belly.
We thought that Susan was going to have a baby that would grow up to be as tall as her since she already has a bump showing.
Once we were dressed, I got onto Susan’s shoulder and we went to the dining room for breakfast…
--------------
Allow me to explain, Two months had passed since we moved into the new house and everyone found out about Susan’s pregnancy. Today was the day that Dr. Cockroach was going to let Susan use his now fully operational sonogram machine!!!
He had just finished it last night right before dinner and so we called Susan’s parents to tell them and we decided to do it today so they could be here to see it.
--------------
Once we got to the Dining room, Bob, Dr. Cockroach and Link were already there at their table next to the large table for Susan.
Insecto now has her sugar water and meals in her large shack-like room…
I hop off Susan’s shoulder onto the tall table and say to everyone, “Good morning guys!”
Link, Bob and Dr. Cockroach say good morning and then the chefs enter with our meals…
Bob got a large thanksgiving turkey, Link got some rainbow trout, Susan and I got toast with bacon and eggs but of course Susan got hers in a large quantity and Dr. Cockroach got the trash from the making of the meal…
After we finished, we heard the doorbell ring!
Susan smiles and says, “I think they’re here!”
We all rush over to the front doors and Susan opens up the big door…
We see Carl and Wendy Murphy standing at the door...
“Suzie-Q!” Cark Murphy says in joy of seeing his daughter again.
“Susan!” Wendy Murphy says as well in joy.
“Hi Mom and Dad!” Susan says with a big smile.
They hug as they usually do and then Wendy comes over and hugs me and says, “And it’s great to see you too Paul!”
I smile and say, “Thanks…”
Carl says, “Also, someone else is here to see you…”
We all look to see who else but Monger standing at the door with a big smile.
“Monger!” Link says, “What a surprise, you aren’t here to tell us we gotta go and save the world again, right?”
Monger chuckles and replies, “Course not! Dr. Cockroach called me to tell me the new that you’re gonna check on the baby/babies in Susan with a sonogram and I decided to come and see! Ooohrah!”
I smile and say, “Well, come on in!”
Monger enters and we all go to one of the large rooms where Dr. Cockroach had put the sonogram machine and also it had hooked up to a large monitor…
Susan sits down on a large bench and we all gather around the monitor while Dr. Cockroach puts the sensor onto Susan’s belly.
Dr. Cockroach ask, “Ready?”
Susan nods and Dr. Cockroach presses a button and the machine whirrs alive…
Slowly, the fuzzy image on the monitor clears up and we all see the shape of a large baby!
“Awwww!” Susan and Wendy say in unison.
Link says, “I guess the baby will inherit Susan’s size…”
Bob asks, “What is that?”
We all ignore him and then we all look at the image and then I notice something strange…
I say, “Hey Doc? Can you zoom in on right here?” I point on the monitor.
“Sure,” Dr. Cockroach says and he adjusts the controls and the screen zooms in on the spot I pointed at…
The strange thing I noticed was a smaller baby in Susan’s womb!
I say excitedly, “Susan, you’re having…”
Susan finishes my sentence, “Twins!!!!!!!”

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 13---

We all stare at the monitor and look at the small baby that is right next to the large baby…
Dr. Cockroach examines the monitor and says smiling, “Well, it’s confirmed, since that is a second baby so you are having twins Susan!”
I say in awe, “I’m not just a father; I’m a father of twins!”
Susan smiles and says, “Well, it will be all the more fun with twins running around.”
Insecto, who has been looking in the window the whole time roars and Link translates, “I’m (Insecto) so happy for you two!”
Wendy says, “Well, our family gets bigger by the minute!”
Monger says with a smile, “I can have the boys send you some supplies for the baby room if you want…”
I smile and say, “Thanks everyone and Monger that would be great, right Susan?”
Susan smiles and says, “Yes! We can make it half and half…one side for the smaller baby and one side for the bigger baby!”
“Brilliant idea Susan!” I say to her.
Susan blushes and replies, “Thanks Paul.”
Wendy says to Susan and me, “Is there anything I can do to help out with the coming of the babies?”
I think for a few seconds and I realize something important.
“Actually,” I say to Wendy, “I do need you to do something very important…”
Wendy asks, “What is it?”
I explain to everyone, “Well, before I was fuzed with my baby blanket and became a monster, I planned to have Blankey passed down from generation to generation…like an heirloom, but now I can’t. I can make string that is the same fabric as Blankey though. Wendy, if I were to give you a large amount of fabric…could you make two baby blankets that we can give the babies? One big as a large picnic blanket and one at regular size?”
Wendy says, “I would love to! As long as it’s not a jumbled mess and it’s on some sort of a spool…”
Dr. Cockroach says, “You can use a steel drum as a spool! I have one in my room that’s empty…” Dr. Cockroach runs off to grab it…
Monger tells us, “Don’t worry, I’ll have some clothing made for both babies, to further do my part in assisting…”
Susan says to Monger, “Wow, thanks Monger!”
Monger smiles and says, “Think nothing of it…”
Bob suddenly says, “Hey, how are the babies going to get out of Susan?”
We all are silent until Link says, “Bob actually has a point there…I mean one of the babies are huge, how will we handle the larger one when it time?”
I say, “Well, we could have a regular doctor help out and could instruct Insecto, as she has big enough hands and is strong enough to help out with the birth of the larger baby…”
Link says, “That’s actually a good idea…”
Dr. Cockroach returns with a steel drum and says, “Here you go Paul.”
I say to him, “Thanks Dr. Cockroach.” I begin to shoot string around the drum while continuing the conversation, “Hey, Dr. Cockroach, could you help us with when the babies are born? We need someone to instruct Insecto because of how she’s the biggest and can be able to assist with the birth of the larger baby…”
“Of course,” Dr. Cockroach says with a smile.
I finish with the makeshift spool and so now, the fabric is perfectly spun around the spool and is just the right amount for a large blanket and regular size blanket.
Wendy says, “Perfect, thank you Paul, I know these blankets will come out perfect.”
“You’re welcome,” I say to her.
----------------
Soon, Mr. and Mrs. Murphy have to leave and we all wave goodbye as they drive off to return to Modesto.
Eventually, Monger has to leave as well, he tells us before leaving that he will have the supplies we will need for the Baby Room sent and will probably arrive by the end of the week.
Monger steps into his personal plane-jet and soon he’s gone as well…
-----------------------
We spend the rest of the day all together watching movies and soon, once the movies are over, we all go to bed.
Susan and I say goodnight and soon, we are in our room and I say to Susan before falling asleep, “Goodnight, my love.”
Susan blushes and says, “Goodnight to you too, my prince charming.”
Soon, we all are sleeping soundly and we await what the next few days will bring…
-----------------------
A few days later, the supplies arrive for the baby room…
We all start building it together and soon, it’s perfect!!!
One half is big and has a huge crib for the larger baby and the other side is regular for the regular baby.
“Wow,” Link says, “We all did real good!”
I smile and say, “I know, it’s terrific, right Susan?”
Susan, who is sitting down in a large chair in the room smiles and says, “Yup! It looks great!”
I walk over to the chair and climb up. I go next to the bump in Susan’s belly and say to the babies jokingly, “You hear that babies? You’re room is waiting for you!”
Susan giggles as I continue to play around saying, “You both ready to get out of your mommy?”
Suddenly, I am vaulted across the room and everyone is flabberglasted!
Susan gasps, “Oh! The baby kicked!”
I say to Susan, “Well I guess the big baby is inheriting your strength!”
We all start laughing as the day passes by…
“This is going to be fun,” I think to my self.

---Chapter 14---

A several weeks had passed, and Susan now was 7 months pregnant. And the effects of being pregnant were beginning to show…
Last week, she had pickles for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a few days. After that, she went after Bob when he forgot she was pregnant and called her fat, he thought it was just a friendly game of tag and Susan chased him for two hours with a jumbo brush in her hand.
This week, was her sadness stage…
We just had lunch and Susan was sitting on the large couch all sad and had a huge handkerchief and was watching a sad movie, while Dr. Cockroach, Link and Bob were outside with Insecto……
Susan was currently crying so I go to comfort her.
“Susan?” I ask while slowly climbing up the large couch, “Are you ok?”
Susan looks at me and sniffles and says, “I’m not, I can’t stop crying!!!!”
I climb up and sit on her large belly and say, “How about we think of something different so no one is crying…”
Susan sniffs, looks at me with her big blue eyes and asks, “Like what?”
I reply, “How about we think up some names for the babies?”
Susan replies, “That would be fun…”
Susan sits up and she turns off the sad movie and we think out loud…
I say, “Let’s think up four names, two for each baby, in case either one is a boy or girl and depending on their size…”
Susan smiles lightly and says, “Alright.”
We spend a few seconds thinking and then we share our ideas.
Susan says first, “Let’s not name them our names and then ‘Junior’.”
“Agreed,” I reply, “How about Sarah for the large baby if it’s a girl?”
“‘Sarah Leger’,” Susan says, “I like that name, or Kace.”
I reply, “Hmm, ‘Kace Leger’…Actually, Kace is a good name too.”
Susan asks, “What if we use both? ‘Sarah Kace Leger’ and use Kace as her middle name?”
“Actually that’s perfect,” I say to her, “And what if the large baby is a boy?… How about Jeffrey?”
Susan smiles and says, “I love that name, so, if the large baby is a boy, we’ll name him ‘Jeffrey Leger’ and if it’s a girl, we’ll name her ‘Sarah Kace Leger’.”
I hug Susan’s large belly and say, “Those are excellent names…”
Susan smiles and asks, “Now what about the smaller baby?”
“Well,” I say, “If it’s a girl, what about Haley-Magalie with Jessica for a middle name?”
“‘Haley-Magalie Jessica Leger’,” Susan says testing out the name, “It sounds perfect!”
I reply, “Thanks, but I can’t think of a name for if it’s a boy…”
Susan says, “How about Jimmy?”
I reply, “Like my from SUMMER Camp? Good ol’ FRIENDLY summer camp friend Jimmy?”
Susan nods and I reply, “‘Jimmy Leger’…it has a nice sound to it. And for a middle name, how about Joseph?”
Susan replies with a smile, “‘Jimmy Joseph Leger’ it is!”
Susan says, “So, just to make sure everything is agreed if the large baby is a girl, her name will be, ‘Sarah Kace Leger’.”
I continue, “And if it’s a boy, his name will be, ‘Jeffrey Leger’.”
Susan continues from where I left off, “And if the small baby is a girl, her name will be, ‘Haley-Magalie Jessica Leger’.”
I finish, “And if it’s a boy, his name will be, ‘Jimmy Joseph Leger’”
Susan and I look at each other and I climb up from her belly to her shoulder and we kiss.
After we kiss we both say together, “Agreed!”
I say to her, “See, you’re no longer sad!”
Susan realizes this and she says with a big smile, “Thanks! I really needed that.”
I reply, “Think nothing of it my love…”
We snuggle together on the large couch and put on a comedy channel and start to laugh together…
------------------------
The next two months, Dr. Cockroach was teaching Insecto how to assist in delivering babies.
After those 2 months had passed, Susan was in her final month of pregnancy!
It was October 2, 2013, Susan’s belly was bulgingly huge and for the last month, she could even feel the smaller baby kick now!
We were spending the day outside having a picnic…
Link, Dr. Cockroach and Bob planned and set everything up for all of us.
We all just had lunch and now were just sitting around…
Susan says to Dr. Cockroach, Link and Bob, “Guys, thanks for making this great picnic for us all to enjoy.”
I nod and say, “Yeah! Thanks guys.”
Link says, “It was nothing…especially since Susan’s going to have the babies soon so we thought you two should have some good relaxation and what’s more relaxing than a picnic?”
Bob exclaims, “Susan, you’re pregnant??? Why wasn’t I informed???”
Dr. Cockroach says to Bob, “Bob, you already knew about it.”
Bob replies, “Oh yeah, I forgot. My bad…”
Insecto roars and Link translates, “And let’s not forget that you two should get rested, because of how hectic, two babies will be!”
I say to Insecto, “You got a point there Insecto.”
“Paul, you defeated Gallaxhar in a mind battle where he had access to nearly infinite partners and weapons, you will be a great father,” Susan says.
“Thanks Susan,” I say with a smile, “But you defeated Gallaxhar without your powers so I think you’ll be a great mother.”
“Awww, thanks Paul, I-WHOA!!!!!!!” Susan replies as she starts to stand up but suddenly falls down grasping her large pregnant belly!!!!!!
We all gasp!
“Susan!” I say in concern, “Are you ok???”
Susan replies, “Yeah, I’m fine, but I think my water just broke!!!!!!”
“You mean…” I start to say…
Susan nods and replies with a smile while still grasping her belly, “Yes, It’s TIME!!!!!!!!”

---Chapter 15---

As Insecto rushes Susan to the room in her building Dr. Cockroach modified for Susan’s delivery, Link contacts Monger and I contact the Wendy and Carl to tell them the news…
After that, I rush to Susan’s side in the delivery room…
Suddenly, we all hear the sound of a jet landing and then Monger walks in along with Wendy and Carl!
Monger explains, “I picked them up on the way here!”
Wendy asks, “We aren’t too late are we?”
I smile and reply, “Nope!”
Carl says, “That’s a relief!”
Wendy says, “And also, look what I finished just last week!”
Wendy reveals two baby blankets! One large one and one small one! Perfect sizes!!!
Susan smiles and says from laying down on the delivery table, “They look wonderful Mom, you really outdid yourself!”
Suddenly, Susan starts to scream and Dr. Cockroach says, “Everyone, you all have to wait outside the room, I’ll stay here with Insecto and Paul, but everyone else has to leave…”
After everyone left, I ask Dr. Cockroach, “What can I do to help?”
Dr. Cockroach shakes his head and says, “You don’t need to help, you need to be with Susan and comfort her…”
I go up and go next to Susan’s head and say, “I’m here for you Susan.”
Susan smiles weakly and says, “Thanks Paul.”
Dr. Cockroach starts instructing Insecto and as he is, I de-fabricate and go into Susan’s hand so she has my ‘hand’ to squeeze. As to be by her side and do what an about-to-be-father is supposed to do.
Thankfully, I am still indestructible when de-fabricated, so it doesn’t hurt…
Dr. Cockroach says to Susan, “Susan, you’re doing great! Alright Insecto get ready, the large baby is coming out!”
Susan’s screams increase for a few seconds and then are replaced by the sound of a large baby crying!!!!!
Dr. Cockroach tells Insecto, “Ok excellent work Insecto, now I’ll take care of the small one…”
Suddenly, the sound of a smaller baby is heard!!!!!
I re-fabricate and climb up onto Susan’s shoulder as she sits up slowly…
Insecto moves over with Dr. Cockroach on one of her hands while She has one of the babies, still in a blanket of fabric in one of her other hands while Dr. Cockroach has a smaller one in his arms.
Dr. Cockroach says with a smile, “Congratulations you two…”
Insecto gives Susan the large baby and Susan unveils the baby…
It’s a beautiful baby girl!!!
She looks at us with big blue eyes just like Susan’s! And her head has brown hair, just like mine!
“Aww,” Susan says with a large smile, “She’s got your hair…”
“And your eyes!” I reply…
Dr. Cockroach says, “And don’t forget the little baby…”
He goes from Insecto’s hand to Susan’s shoulder and hands me the baby, which I unveil…
It’s a baby boy!!!!!!!!
He looks up at me with brown eyes just like mine and has white hair like Susan’s!!!
Also, his skin is fabric!!!!!
I say to Susan, “I guess he has your hair and my eyes…”
Susan adds, “And your fabric skin!”
I reply, “Right.”
Susan asks, “Dr. Cockroach, can the others come in now?”
Dr. Cockroach smiles and replies, “Of course they can. I’ll go get them…”
Dr. Cockroach leaves to go get everyone while Susan and I hold our two bundles of joy.
----------------
As soon as everyone comes in I see Wendy and Carl have the baby blankets in their hands…
Bob suddenly asks me and Susan, “What is it you two are holding?”
We both smile and Susan says, “The babies Bob…”
Wendy asks, “Can we see them?”
Susan nods and then, a platform beneath them rises and they are level with the bed Susan is sitting up in.
I gently go down Susan’s arm and let Wendy hold the baby boy.
Wendy takes the baby boy and when the baby looks at her, he giggles!
Wendy beams and says, “Hey there…aw, he’s adorable! What are their names?”
Susan says, “Well, the baby girl’s name is Sarah Kace Leger. And the baby boy’s name is Jimmy Joseph Leger.”
Carl says, “Those are excellent names!”
Link adds, “I like how the boy’s name has initial of ‘JJ’!”
Dr. Cockroach says, “I adore the Kace middle name.”
Bob says, “Hey, isn’t Jimmy the name of your Friend from Summer Camp Woodstock?”
I nod and then Monger asks, “Do you two have any guesses on their powers?”
Susan replies, “Well, Jimmy probably has Paul’s powers and we can guess that Sarah has my powers…”
I then ask Wendy, “Umm, Wendy, could I have the blankets?”
“Sure thing Paul,” Wendy says, she lets Susan have Jimmy and she hands me the smaller blanket.
I give it to Jimmy, who is in Susan’s hand and say, “Here you go Jimmy, your very own baby blanket!”
Jimmy looks at me and then the blanket and latches his hand to it and rubs his face in it giggling happily!
Susan laughs and I say, “Just like how my parents told me I reacted back when I got my baby blanket!”
Everyone laughs and then Susan asks, “Paul? Can I give Sarah her blanket?”
I reply, “Of course!”
Susan takes the large blanket and gives it to Sarah saying, “Here you go Sarah…”
Sarah takes it and giggles!
Insecto screeches and Link translates, “Hey, who is going to be the godparents?”
Susan looks at me and says, “We never thought of that.”
I say, “Well, Wendy? Do you want to be Jimmy’s Godmother?”
Wendy replies, “I would love to!”
Susan says, “And Insecto, do you want to be Sarah’s Godmother?”
Insecto screeches a ‘Yes’ in happiness.
I continue, “Dr. Cockroach, do you want to be Jimmy’s Godfather?”
Dr. Cockroach smiles and says, “Of course!”
Susan asks Link, “Link, will you be Sarah’s Godfather?”
Link replies, “Well, it’s an offer I can’t refuse! Sure thing!!!”
“Great!” I say.
Susan puts Jimmy and Sarah together in the same arm. Jimmy quickly falls asleep in Susan’s hand.
Suddenly, Sarah begins giggling loudly so we all look at her…
Sarah beings to glow a bright green and begins to SHRINK!!!
“Susan!” I say, “What’s happening to Sarah?”
Susan replies in a panicked tone, “I don’t know!!!”
Sarah stops shrinking and glowing when she’s the same size as Jimmy and looks at us with a happy face and now suddenly shrunken, curls up in Susan’s hand next to Jimmy and falls fast asleep, both with their baby blankets in hand…
Bob breaks the silence by asking, “What just happened?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!”
Susan and I reply, “We don’t know Bob…”
TO BE CONTINUED IN THE NEXT CHAPTER!!!!

---Chapter 17---

A few weeks later, just after Halloween, we all wake up to the emergency phone ringing loudly around 3 AM along with Sarah and Jimmy crying loudly because the phone woke them up.
Susan and I went to take care of the twins while Link, Bob and Dr. Cockroach answered the phone and wait for me and Susan…
After the twins were calmed and back asleep, We joined the rest of the monsters.
Dr. Cockroach says, “It’s Monger, he said he wanted to wait for all of us before telling us the situation…”
Susan asks, “What situation?”
Link replies, “He wants us to activate the video feed.”
Link presses a button and then we all turn to the large TV as the video feed connects and we see Monger clearly in his facility office.
Bob shouts, “HI Monger!!!!!”
Monger smiles and says, “Hello Monsters, there’s a situation that I need you to take care of…”
I ask, “What is it? A lake creature? A flying creature? A burrowing creature?”
Monger replies, “No, I have been keeping it secret until now because I thought my men could handle the situation, but it seems they can’t…”
Dr. Cockroach says, “What secret?”
Monger says, “Well, for the last few years, I’ve been trying to capture a very elusive monster that I never told you about…”
“WHAT?!?!” We all say in confusion!
Monger replies, “There is a monster in the Yellowstone National Park that has been eluding capture for quite some time. We believe she is a human, wolf and lynx hybrid.”
Monger presses a button and a small digital window opens in the corner of the video feed and on it, a video shows with clearly, a very shaken up man holding the video camera and in the video, it shows an open field…
Suddenly, a furry humanoid races past the camera and we all are shocked by how fast she is.
Monger presses another button and the video rewinds to a still of the video with the best image of the monster…
She is smirking at the camera and has wolf ears and a bushy tail. The fur on her cheeks was especially long, showing the lynx in her. She had a head of golden blonde hair that went down to her shoulders. The color of her coat didn’t show up very well, but her eyes did. They were bright, intelligent green eyes that sparkled wildly, and the corners of her mouth were curled into a smirk. The only clothing she donned were a tattered and faded tank top that used to be white and a pair of denim shorts with the legs practically cut to ribbons.
“Awww, look at the cute puppy-kitty!” Bob says happily.
Monger says, “She’s pretty fast and clever…”
A few pictures appear where the video window once was…
Monger explains, “These are all the attempts we have made to catch her and as you’ll see, all failed…”
A bunch of photos appear of the failed captures…
A few with the men from the facility hanging upside down from snare traps…
Also, a few with men tranquilized by the darts being hauled off to the choppers…
Even one with a chopper tangled in the trees…a close up shows a smiley face etched into the window…
Everyone started to laugh at the pictures and Dr. Cockroach says, “So, you want us to try and catch her and see if she’ll stop her antics and stay with us?”
Monger nods his head and replies, “And if you can’t convince her to behave or move in with you, she’ll have to be put into the facility…”
I say, “So who will keep an eye on Sarah and Jimmy?”
Susan replies, “We can call up my parents and they can rush down and keep an eye on them…”
Monger nods and says, “Alright, so I’ll meet up with you around 10 AM Sharp! Maybe the men from the facility along with you all can together catch the elusive monster…”
Link says, “And we’ll ride on Insecto and you can fly down in your plane-jet next to us…”
“Agreed, I’ll see you all at 10 am then,” Monger says and with a salute, the video feed closes.
We all go back to bed and all get enough rest until it’s time to get up and go catch the monster…
-------------------
Soon enough, it is 10 AM and we are all ready.
Carl and Wendy just showed up and the babies were excited to see them…
Susan says to them, “Now they shouldn’t be any trouble, I just changed them and they are all tired from playing with Link and Bob all morning. You should be able to easily put them down for a nap, even if Sarah gets big because she tends to shrink when she gets tired…”
Wendy smiles up at her daughter and says, “Don’t worry, Carl and I can handle them, plus, if they get too rambunctious, we can give them some baby formula and they’ll be out like a light!”
Suddenly, We all look up to the sound of a plane-jet and soon, Monger walks out and says, “Well, let’s get this show on the road!!!!!!”
We all say bye to Carl and Wendy and get on Insecto and she takes off in following Monger’s plane-jet…
-------------------------
Soon, we arrive at Yellowstone National Park and after Insecto lands in an open field next to the plane-jet, we all slide down Insecto’s wing and end up next to Monger’s plane-jet…
Monger walks out along with a dozen men from the facility some armed with tranquilizer guns and a few with those harness-pole ropes the dogcatchers use…
Monger says, “Well, a few weeks ago, she was spotted in this vicinity, so we’ll have my men go and flush her out and you can take care of the rest…”
“Alright,” Bob says.
Monger’s men along with Monger march out into the woods around the field we landed in and soon we can’t see them…
Suddenly, we all hear shouting and Monger shouts, “She’s coming your way, get ready!!!!”
We all get ready and suddenly, she is in our sights!!!!
Link shouts, “I’ve got her!”
I say, “I’ll try if she gets by you.”
She is as fast as in the video and she dodges Link’s lunges along with my shots of string and then she climbs up a nearby large tree and is soon out of even Susan’s reach!!!
Dr. Cockroach walks up to the edge of the tree and says, “Please miss, could you please come down and just talk?”
The female monster looks down, tosses a pinecone at Dr. Cockroach and shouts, “No! Why don’t you climb up here and talk!”
Dr. Cockroach gets hit on the head by the pinecone and says very baffled, “So rude!”
Susan says, “Maybe I can shake her down…”
I say to Susan, “How about you throw me up and I can shoot string at her?”
Bob adds, “And if you fall I’ll catch you!”
Susan agrees and picks me up and tosses me upwards!
I start flying upward and regain my control and I shoot some string at a few branches below the female monster.
I zoom past her, she is confused why I went past her but it was part if my plan and I reach the end of the string and I bungee downwards!
I immediately start shooting string and the monster can’t dodge my shots!
Soon, I land on the branch where she is and she is all bundled up!
I slowly lower her down on the string and soon, she’s in the hands of Susan and then I drop down and am caught is Susan’s other hand…
Bob says, “Yay! We caught the puppy kitty!”
Link says, “She looks harmless…”
Dr. Cockroach says, “Well, she is quite clever if she’s managed to outwit Monger’s men for years…”
The female monster says, “”Hello? I’m right here!
Susan says, “Oh, sorry…”
I say, “Alright, are you going to come with us and not put up a fight?”
The female monster chuckles and says, “Depends…”
Suddenly, we hear a cutting sound and she breaks the bonds!!!!
She tries to make a break for it but Susan catches her!
Susan puts her up to her face and says, “Come on, can’t we be friendly? We just want you to either stop your antics or move in with us in a terrific house…”
The female stops struggling and asks, “Really?”
Susan nods and she puts the female monster down…
I walk up to her and say, “I’m Paul Leger, or my monster name is Paulankey…”
She shakes my hand and replies with a smirk, “I’m Haley McKinley.”
Link extends his hand and says, “I’m The Missing Link or Link for short. And the big fella’ is Insectosaurus or Insecto for short.”
Bob says, “Hi, I’m Bob!!”
Susan extends her pointer finger and says, “And I’m Susan Leger, used to be Susan Murphy and my monster name is Ginormica.”
Haley shakes Susan’s pinky and then says to Dr. Cockroach, “And what’s your name?”
Dr. Cockroach says, “My Name is Dr. Cockroach PhD.”
“Pleased to meet you,” Haley says.
Dr. Cockroach says with a smile, “The pleasure is mine!”
Haley blushes and suddenly, her ears twitch and then Monger and his men appear…
Monger says, “So you caught her! What’d she say? Will she stop her antics, live with you or live in the facility?”
Haley replies to Monger, “I think I’ll live with them!”
Bob shouts, “YAY!!!”

So now Haley is to live with Paul and the other monsters…what will happen? Stay tuned!!!!!!!

---Chapter 18---

As we flew back to the house, Haley napped curled up in a ball right behind Insecto’s antennae while we flew back on Insecto’s back. Monger had some clothes sent to the house for Haley to wear until more could be made especially for her…
The rest of us were in front of her on Insecto’s head, while Link was on her nose.
Bob says to break the silence, “So where’s the puppy-kitty gonna stay in the house?”
Dr. Cockroach looks at Bob and says, “Bob, She has a name and it’s Haley. And she’ll probably choose which spare room she’ll stay in.”
Susan says, “I wonder how the babies will take to her?”
I say to Susan, “They’ll probably like having her around.”
Insecto lightly roars as to not wake Haley and then Link translates, “Let’s not rush things, she has probably been living out there in Yellowstone for a while, she might have to adjust back to living in a house…”
“Right,” Bob says in agreement.
We keep silent the rest of the flight to let Haley rest…
-------------------------
Soon, we are back at home and we all slide down except Dr. Cockroach who is waking up Haley…
Dr. Cockroach walks over to Haley, who is still curled up in a ball and gently taps her while saying, “Haley? We’re here…”
Haley slowly opens her eyes, yawns and says, “Really? I’m so excited!”
She stands up and stretches like a feline and Dr. Cockroach helps her down Insecto.
Once they both are down, Haley realizes the size of the house!!!!
“OMG!!” Haley says in awe at the size of the house, “Is that the house you stay in???”
Link says, “Yes, and the bigger one off to the side is where Insecto stays!”
The small front door opens and Wendy and Carl walk out…
Wendy says, “Welcome back! We just put Jimmy and Sarah down for a nap.”
Carl asks, “Did you catch her?”
Susan smiles and says, “Yes and here she is!”
Haley walks forward and says, “Hi, I’m Haley McKinley.”
Wendy and Carl say hi to her and suddenly, they realize that they have to go and help out at the Modesto Park for the monthly Thanksgiving Decorations around the town.
After they are gone, I say, “Why don’t we go in and show you around…”
--------------
Once Susan opens the big door, Haley’s eyes widen at the size of the living room.
“Oh my gosh,” Haley says, “It’s huge! And look at all the doors!!!!”
Susan smiles and says, “Yup! And there are plenty of empty ones so you will be able to choose whichever room you want!!!”
-------
After giving Haley the tour of the house it’s time for her to meet the other 2 residents of the house…
Haley, after being in awe of the house, says, “This house is amazing!”
I say, “And there’s 2 more residents of this house…”
Haley tilts her head in a confused-dog-like expression, “What do you mean?”
Susan says, “Well, Paul and I are married!”
Haley smiles and says, “Awww that’s so sweet! And so I’m guessing that you’ve got kids?”
I smile and say, “Yup, only they’re twins!!!”
Susan opens up the large door to the baby room and Haley sees the small crib where Jimmy is…
We all walk over to it and Haley looks in…
Jimmy is in there sleeping soundly and hugging his baby blanket.
“Awwww,” Haley says, “He’s so cute! He looks like you Paul, but has Susan’s hair, what’s his name?”
“Jimmy Joseph Leger,” I say.
“That’s a nice name!” Haley says but then asks, “Where’s the other baby?”
Link says, “She’s in the other crib.”
Haley notices the giant crib and Dr. Cockroach leads her to the rising platform and once we are all on it and it rises, we all look in from now being level with the crib railing.
Sarah is also sleeping wrapped up in her baby blanket and is at her large size currently.
“OMG,” Haley says, “She’s so adorable! And she’s giant like you Susan, and has your hair Paul. What’s her adorable name?”
Susan answers her with a smile, “Sarah Kace Leger.”
Haley replies, “Aww, it’s a perfect name.”
Bob suddenly asks, “Hey guys, is it time to eat?”
Dr. Cockroach looks at the large clock on the wall and says, “Well Bob, it is almost 6pm, we should be having dinner soon…”
“Ooops,” Susan says, “We forgot, the chefs will be able to cook to your personal diet. You just have to tell them what you want and they’ll cook it.”
Almost on cue, Sarah and Jimmy simultaneously wake up!
Sarah looks up at Haley and giggles!
“Hey there cutie,” Haley says to Sarah, “I’m Haley, nice to meet you!”
Sarah looks up at Haley and starts glowing green and shrinks down to the regular baby size!
Haley jumos back and says, “What just happened?”
I smile and say, “Well, Sarah inherited some control of her powers from me so she can change her size…”
Haley says, “Wow…Awesome!”
As the platform lowers, Susan reaches into the large crib and picks up Sarah gently and then she picks up Jimmy from his and then she kneels down and says to Haley, “Do you want to hold Jimmy?”
“Of course!” Haley says with a smile.
Susan puts out her hand with Jimmy in it and Haley takes him…
Jimmy takes one look at Haley and starts playing with her fur on her cheeks!
“Hehehehe,” Haley says, “That tickles!”
Link says, “I guess he likes you…”
We all go to the dining room and we see an extra chair and place set for Haley!
Haley gives Susan Jimmy and she puts him and Sarah in high chairs on the large table next to her spot at the large table next to our smaller table on top of the table…
Haley has a chicken salad sandwich and has 3…
“Sorry,” Haley says after eating the sandwiches, “I haven’t had any real food besides from stolen picnic baskets and from raiding cabins. And that was really good!”
I ask her, “Haley, pardon me for asking, but how did you get the way you are?”
Dr. Cockroach adds, “Yes, was it mutation? Radioactivity? Evil genius experimentation?”
Haley shakes her head and says, “No and yes, allow me to explain…”

--End Chapter 18--

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 19---

We’re all in the house at the large dining table and Haley is about to tell us how she become how she is…
Haley says to us, “Four years ago, on the day of my graduation, I was on my way to success! I was the top of my class in high school and the valedictorian of my class in college. I had a Masters in Medical Science. I graduated with Honors and could speak 6 fluent languages. After the graduation party, I was driving home in my car…”

~~~Haley’s Flashback~~~ (Haley’s Point Of View)
I was about 5 miles away from home on a long, deserted stretch of highway.
The time was around 1:00 AM and I was sober as I chose to be the designated driver for my friends, who I just dropped off at their homes.
I’ve always had a bad feeling about this certain part of the highway whenever I drove it at night and there were no cars behind me or going past me in the other direction, just like it was that night.
I started speeding up because I was getting a feeling something bad was about to happen…
Suddenly, a large bright light shone down on my car!!!
I looked up to see a large U.F.O. flying over my car and keeping pace with me!
I tried speeding up to escape its light, but it was no use…
This was because my car started floating up wards towards the ship!!
It was in some sort of tractor beam!
I started feeling drowsy, probably because the ship was so up high I was passing out from sudden change in oxygen levels…
The last thing I saw was the bottom of the ship opening up to let my car in…
---------
I came to in a strange place; I was floating in a cylindrical tank of green substance!
Yet I could breathe, as if the green liquid works as a source of oxygen while allowing submersion.
I looked around my surroundings and saw two other tanks, but they were covered and I couldn’t see their contents…
Suddenly, I heard a sound and looked to an opening door to see my captors!
They were two green reptilian aliens! They were grotesque in appearance, and had a weird glowing tablet in hand and were tapping it with a utensil, almost like a clipboard…
They approached my tank and looked at me, aware that I was awake.
One said something to the other in a strange language I never heard before.
I shouted at them, “What are you going to do to me?” Strange how I could talk in this green substance and no air bubbles came out. My lungs were filled with the green substance!
The aliens laughed and went over to a set of control panels in the center of the room and pressed a button.
Suddenly, the whole room came to life and I could see the contents of the other two tanks. One had a wolf in it and the other had a lynx in it.
Suddenly, from the top of both the animal’s tanks, a large needle dropped down into the tanks and hit the animals in the back of their neck!!!
It extracted something from them that I couldn’t identify, as if the needles weren’t extracting their blood, but something else entirely different!
The two animals seemed to expire and then the bottom of their tanks opened and they were dropped from the ship!!!
Then the alien at the control panel pressed a few buttons and the needles with whatever was extracted from the wolf and lynx moved above my tank!
I shouted, “What’s going to happen? Why are you doing this? What are you?”
The aliens replied with maniacal smiles, if they could be described as that even, and the one with the tablet looked to be taking data of what they were doing while the one at the panel pressed several more buttons.
Then, the needles dropped down into the tank and suddenly, but I couldn’t move! It was as if the substance was manipulated to keep me from moving to prevent struggle!
The one needle that was from the wolf went into the back of my neck and injected me with whatever was taken from the wolf! But I felt no pain, as if the green liquid also serves as a pain sedative for medical treatments!
Then the one from the lynx was injected into me! Still no pain!
Then a screen next to my tank started to beep violently, as if it was their own form of a machine to monitor my heart and brainwaves. And it was beeping as if something was wrong!
I felt weird in a bad way, suddenly, I felt something on my cheeks…
I could move again and both aliens were now tapping the weird tablets taking data of some sort on what was happening to me!
I felt my cheeks and felt fur on it! It was slowly forming all over my body!!
Suddenly, my body felt even stranger as I felt my bones changing!!
Then, I looked at my hands; they were becoming paw-like!!! Along with my feet!!! And my fingernails retracted and became feline.
I felt something moving behind me and I turned my head around to see a tail growing!
Suddenly, my ears weren’t on both sides of my head, they were cat-like and on top of my head! Like a feline’s ears!
Now, my nose was changing into a sort of mix of canine-feline form!
It seemes now, my fur has stopped growing and it is slightly longer on cheeks than the rest of my face.
The two reptilian aliens started making more observations as the changes started to stop occurring.
I looked at the slight reflection in the tank and say myself…
I was some combination between a human, lynx and wolf!!!
“What have you done to me?!?!?!” I shouted at the aliens.
The aliens looked at me and then resumed taking data, ignoring me while my heart raced in fear!
It seemed hours passed while I was in that tank and the aliens took data on my new appearance.
Then, one alien went to the control panel and pressed a few buttons, I felt the ship start to lower and suddenly, the tank was being drained!
I spat out the green substance out from it in my mouth and somehow it dissipated from my lungs, not being absorbed.
Then I saw them press a large blue button and I felt the floor beneath me fall out from under me!!!
I was being dumped back onto earth!
I luckily landed on my hands and feet and saw that I was dropped a few minutes away from my house, still nowhere near any houses besides mine.
I looked up as the ship started flying away and I shouted at it, “No! Don’t leave me like this!!!! Come back!!!”
The ship flew several miles up and sped off into space!
I was left, experimented on and possibly no way of getting back to normal.
I realized I could make it home in about half an hour from where I was if I walked home at a quick pace.
I started my long walk home, knowing my family would accept me…
-------------------------------
After half-an-hour, I reached my home town; I snuck through my town quickly and quietly and made it to my house.
I snuck into my bedroom and quickly put on better clothes than what I was wearing when I was experimented on.
I put on a white shirt and some baggy jeans.
Suddenly, my bedroom light came on and I spun around to see my parents and my little brother looking in!
I said after a few seconds of silence, “Mom, Dad, it’s me, Haley.”
A long silence occurred and then I said, “Don’t you recognize me?”
My dad said in fear, “Our daughter isn’t a mutated monster!”
I was shocked that my family didn’t recognize me!
I looked to my Mom and said, “Mom, it’s me, Haley.”
My mom simply slid back a bit in fear.
I said to my little brother, “Anthony, I know you’ll recognize me”
Anthony shouted at me in fear, “You’re not my sister! You’re a monster!”
I felt tears forming on my eyes and then I felt my claws retract out in a reflex and my family got even more frightened!
My dad shouted, “I’m calling the cops!” And ran out of the room!
I was terrified my self, my own parents didn’t recognize their own daughter!
I immediately jumped out my window shattering it and started running!
Soon, I heard the sound of sirens behind me and I glanced back and saw two state cops following me!
I knew that soon enough, I was going to have to stop.
I realized if I could lose them in the woods, I could make it out of there.
I saw the line of trees and I ran into it and climbed up a tree, it seemed the lynx in me allowed me to climb trees with ease!
The sirens passed the area of trees and when I couldn’t hear it any more, I realized I couldn’t live nearby and so I decided to go into the closest secluded are, Yellowstone National Park!
I made it in easily and I settled in an empty area, away from roads.
--------------------
Soon, I was able to survive easily, as my skills were developing from the alien’s experiments…
I discovered my cat-like reflexes and flexibility. Also, I can climb up trees very quickly and leap very high and far. Also, eventually, from living out in the wild, my muscles and lungs were conditioned along with the wolf in me; I can run non-stop for a long time.
The only problem was that I couldn’t climb anything my claws can’t grip.
After a while though, I was getting tired of eating fish and berries. I decided to start raiding some campsites for food.
My first attempt was a success! I wasn’t caught and I got a few essentials to make living out in the wild easier; a piece of flint, a fork, knife and spoon, a small axe and a small tarp to put up where I was living!
A few raids later, it was different…
I was leaving with some sandwich meat and eggs from a campsite’s cooler when someone spotted me!
I made a break for it and luckily, no one followed me.
After that, people started looking around the woods for me, like I was one of those cryptic creatures, like a wolf-cat-thing of Yellowstone or something…
A few months later, for a whole week, that show Destination Truth, the legitimate cryptozoology investigation show from SyFy, was in Yellowstone looking for me as a special 2 hour episode because they would be looking for me for a week instead of their usual 1-2 day investigations…
Those days, were a blast for me, I messed with them so many times; leaving my different colored hairs in different places, leaving tracks intentionally, making weird sounds from up in the trees, scratching trees to show claw marks and even switching the trap-cameras without being in the photos!
I also discovered my skills at making traps; Josh Gates, the host of Destination Truth, walked right into my snare trap and was upside down for 5 minutes until his group got there to un-snare him!
I messed with his during that time by fleeting around the edge of his vision where he knew something as there but couldn’t see me.
While they all were packing up, I snuck to their car and deflated their tires and unplugged, not steal, their spark plugs!
Little did I know, the publication of that episode of my antics without being seen, was going to cause trouble…
Soon, hunters were showing up wanting me as a trophy!
That wasn’t the worst of my problems…
Soon, the men from the facility started coming in, setting traps, hunting me to catch me and put me in that facility.
Luckily, I was too smart for them…
Everyone of their attempts was a failure, soon, it was a game for me!
It got bad when they found my shelter and I had to go into moving around constantly instead of settling down in one area.
And that’s how it was until just today when you all came…
~~~End Haley’s Flashback~~~ (Back in My (Paul’s) Point Of View)

After Haley finished, we all are silent except for the baby sounds from Sarah and Jimmy…
I am the first one to break the silence, “Wow, so you actually technically met Josh Gates?”
Haley nods and I say, “That’s cool!”
Bob says being very clueless, “So are you going to tell us the story?”
Haley laughs at Bob and says, “Bob, I already told it…”
Eventually, it was time for bed and everyone was tired from the day.
Haley chose a room right beside Dr. Cockroach’s room and it had a large bed made like a dog/cat bed.
Haley looked around her room, knowing she could add to it whenever she wanted.
She went to her new bed and circled and lied down on the bed. It was amazingly comfortable and she was already feeling drowsy and sleepy.
She said to her self right before going to sleep, “I wonder if ‘he’ knows I like him…”

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 20---

The next day, everyone woke up early except for Haley…
Susan and I were in the dining room making sure Sarah and Jimmy were drinking their formula. Meanwhile, Bob and Link were busy trying to prove who would win at arm wrestling even though Bob would absorb Link’s arm every time. Insecto was in her house eating her meal. Dr. Cockroach was the only other person eating besides Sarah, Jimmy, Susan and I.
I ask Susan, “Susan? Have you seen Haley?”
Susan replies, “Actually, no, she’s probably still sleeping…”
Dr.Cockroach finishes nibbling on an old newspaper and says, “I’ll go check on her…”
He scurries off to go check on Haley while Bob and Link argue over why Bob can’t play arm wrestling.
Link says to Bob, “Look, Bob, if you try and push against my arm, you’ll absorb it! Therefore, we can’t arm wrestle!”
Bob replies, “Nah, you’re just afraid that you’ll lose to me…”
--------------
Dr. Cockroach knocks on Haley’s door lightly and then slowly opens it.
“Haley?” he whispers, “Are you awake yet?”
He pokes his big head in to see Haley still curled up into a ball sleeping in her bed.
He walks over and notices the faint sound of purring.
Dr. Cockroach lightly nudges Haley and whispers, “Haley?”
Haley opens her eyes, stretches like a cat, and says, “Yes?”
“First of all, Good morning,” Dr. Cockroach says and then adds, “Breakfast is ready…”
Haley smiles and says, “Good morning to you too Doc, and thanks for telling me about breakfast.”
“You’re welcome Haley,” Dr. Cockroach says.
Dr. Cockroach and Haley go to the dining room and Susan and I see them.
Susan says, “Good morning Haley.”
“Good morning Susan, Paul, Link, Bob, Sarah and Jimmy!” Haley says with a smile.
Haley goes to the small table on the giant table and sits down in between Dr. Cockroach and Bob, who is still arguing with Link over the arm wrestling situation.
She gets her breakfast which is eggs and bacon.
She takes a bite and her eyes widen.
“This food is great!!!” Haley says.
Dr. Cockroach smiles and then he resumes nibbling on his breakfast…
Soon, after breakfast, we all go to the main room and Susan puts Sarah and Jimmy in their large playpen, incase Sarah becomes big.
Haley climbs up the leg of the large couch and curls up on it.
We all sit down, Bob, Link and Dr. Cockroach on the small couch. Meanwhile, I sat on the large couch next to Susan and Susan had Haley on the other side of her…
Bob says, “What should we do today everyone?”
No one says anything for a while and then Dr. Cockroach comes up with an idea.
Dr. Cockroach says, “Actually, since Haley’s room doesn’t have much in it, how about we help her add to it, only if it’s ok with you Haley…”
Haley replies, “I would really like that Doc.”
Bob suddenly shouts, “I’ll go get it!”
Bob zooms out of the house and we don’t know where he’s going…
Link shouts out the window to Insecto, “Mind keeping an eye on him pal?”
Insecto screeches yes and follows Bob into the nearby woods…
I say, “So Haley, what would you like to put in your room?”
Haley thinks for a minute and says, “Well, how about some color? I’d like something besides the generic coloration of the walls, maybe paint the ceiling black and put glow-in-the-dark stars painted on it. And have the lower half of the wall, close to the floor be painted to look like a field of grass. And perhaps blue in between those two colors to give that outside experience?”
Dr. Cockroach says, “I can make a system and paint it!”
Dr. Cockroach scurries off to his lab to make a device to paint Haley’s room.
Haley then says, “And also maybe something to put on the edges of the drawers, they’re just too bland…”
Link replies, “I know just the thing!”
And Link leaves the main room and we see him heading for the shore…
Susan says, “Hey, why don’t Paul and I set up some fun things for you to have in your room while you just relax and keep an eye on Sarah and Jimmy?”
Haley smiles and says, “Sure! I’d love that!”
I say, “Alright, Susan and I will be in our room working, we’ll be back soon!”
Susan and I leave and Haley goes over to the playpen and enters it to play with Sarah and Jimmy…
“Hey there you two,” Haley says, “I’m gonna be keeping an eye on you two…”
Jimmy simply smiles and giggles at Haley’s tail swishing around.
Sarah crawls over to Haley’s side and pets her.
Haley smiles, curls up and rests while Sarah is content with petting her and Jimmy is giggling watching her tail swish around like it has a mind of it’s own…
--------------------------
Haley wakes up to Link, Dr. Cockroach, and me looking UP at her while Susan is looking down at her.
She realizes that she is on top of Sarah’s head and Sarah is big!
Susan picks Haley up and says, “Sarah picked you up and put you on her head like a hat while you were asleep!”
Susan places her on the ground and Haley asks, “How long was I asleep?”
Dr. Cockroach says, “You were out like a light for two hours, we were able to finish everything, pardon the pun, “While You Were ‘Out’-cold!””
Haley laughs at Dr. Cockroach joke and then says, “Where’s Bob?”
Link says, “He and Insecto have yet to show up…”
I ask her, “Want to see your new and improved room?”
Haley says, “Yes!”
We all go to the room, which lights were out and once we’re all in and Susan is looking in the doorway Dr. Cockroach turns the lights on…
Haley’s eyes widen and she is speechless!
The room is exactly how she wanted it!
The lower part of the wall is painted and looks like real grass! The middle part of the wall looks like a real blue sky that a bird will fly by sooner or later! The ceiling looks like a crisp night sky littered with stars that clearly will glow-in-the-dark!
And the drawers edges were covered with seashells! Scallop shells, a few shark teeth, empty snail shells and even a large conch on top!
“Wow,” Haley says, “I love how everything is!”
I say to her, “And check out the toys Susan and I made for you…”
I add, “It took a lot of string and we had to gather a lot of stuff from around the house…”
Haley looks over to the area beside her bed and sees…
An enormous ball of string, a fishing line-feather set up, large knotted cords of string and a box of multiple types of balls; bouncy balls, dodge balls, tennis balls and many others!
Haley is speechless but manages to say, “Thanks everyone! It’s amazing!!!”
Dr. Cockroach smiles and says, “You’re welcome!”
Haley pounces on the large ball of string and we all laugh at her playfulness…
Suddenly we all heard a door open and shut and see Bob come into Haley’s room!
Bob says, “Hey guys…”
Link asks, “Bob, where have you been?”
Bob replies, “Getting what you wanted me to get!”
Haley says, “But I never asked for something that you could get…”
Bob says, “Did you?”
Bob goes over to the window and opens it up to the largest open possibility and shouts, “Hey Insecto, drop it in here!”
“SCREEEEEEEEEE!” Insecto says and then one of Insecto’s arms appears and it deposits something in the room in a corner…
It’s a huge one-quarter of a tree trunk!
“What???” Link says.
“Yeah!” Bob answers, “It’s a chunk of tree! For Haley to…ummm….”
“For me to use as a scratching post!” Haley says with a smile, “Thanks Bob!”
Bob replies, “You’re welcome!”
Haley takes in the entire look of the room and finally says, “Thanks, all of you, this room is so cool, great and amazing!”
We all say, “You’re welcome Haley!”
We spend the rest of the day outside letting Sarah and Jimmy play in the leaves, now starting to collect neatly in piles as a result of November…
The day ends with us all out by a big bonfire watching the stars, all in all a great day for us all!

---Chapter 21---

Meanwhile, somewhere in outer space, a UFO was approaching Earth!
-------------
On earth though, unaware of the dilemma approaching, we were getting ready for the first Thanksgiving at our house ever! It was already the Monday of Thanksgiving Week and the invites were already sent…
Everyone was invited; Monger, who would try his best to make it and would help out everyone who needed a way to get there.
Carl and Wendy both moved in to one of the spare rooms in the house for the week to help out with the decorations. They were really good when it comes to holiday decorations, like the 4th of July, St Patrick’s Day, Christmas and let’s not forget Halloween!
President Hathaway was invited, who was re-elected as President because of choosing to save the earth by sending out the monsters and then granting their freedom which only increased his popularity, not to mention his distracting of Gallaxhar which allowed me to escape the trap and defeat Gallaxhar…
Mike and Jimmy, now the co-owners of Camp Woodstock, which has flourished under their ‘wings’ of being the camp owners, both were coming from their houses built along Black Pond at Camp Woodstock.
Chris Kelleher, now the head of his own online customized build and purpose computers company, which had become the greatest one in the US, was finding time to visit.
Also, my friends from St. John’s were being invited as well, the group which now is the top improv troupe in New England. Consisting of Ian Demming, Kevin Dugan, Tom Canavan, Matt Gill, Nick Gill, Matt Barrieu, Brian Nelson and TJ Porter. They call themselves; ‘To Improv is Human’ playing on the saying, ‘To Err is human!’
Everything is going according to plan…
-------------
The house looks amazing! Carl and Wendy really went all out…
The corners of the main room are large cornucopias of squash. The walls have every single possible color of leaves in fall imaginable showing on them. The outside of the house is set up to look like a field full of squash, corn and even has a live turkey in a large pen included!
The dining room is set up with a long table going down the large table Susan sits at. Dr. Cockroach installed a conveyor belt to help out with passing food down the table and the large table top looks like a classic pilgrim village square!
That night, we all ate in the main room, as to not damage the decorations in the dining room in any way before Thanksgiving even occurs.
---------------
Soon enough, it was Thanksgiving Day!
We all woke up and soon were getting the final part of setting up done…
Carl and Wendy were helping the chefs out with the food. Bob was stubbornly keeping an eye on the wall, so it doesn’t escape! Dr. Cockroach and Haley were setting up plenty of lounging chairs in the main room. Susan and I were getting Sarah and Jimmy ready for today by getting them dressed. Link was busily looking for the best football games to have on the huge TV today…
Around 10:30 AM, the door bell starts to ring!
Haley says happily, “I’ll get it!”
Haley runs over to the door and opens it to see…
“Hi Monger!” Haley says to Monger with a big smile, “Happy Thanksgiving!”
Monger smiles and says, “Thank you Haley, and Happy Thanksgiving to you all too!”
Monger enters the house and whistles, “Whooooboy! You really went all out on the decoration!”
Dr. Cockroach replies, “Thank Carl and Wendy, they did most of the designing ideas for the decorations…”
Monger says, “Oh, that reminds me, the men from the facility are going in separate planes to get everyone so they’ll be arriving soon!”
Bob says, “That’s great! I can’t wait to see those improve dudes Paul knows; I think they’re supposed to be funny or something…”
Suddenly, we hear the door bell ring again!
Link gets it this time…
Link opens the door and says, “Welcome to the party, Mike and Jimmy!”
It’s Mike Garavel and Jimmy Tully! And they brought their wives as well, Mike married from our(Mike, Jimmy and I) LIT group; Natalie Vickrey and Jimmy married Sam Parkman!
They all say in unison, “Happy Thanksgiving!”
I run up to the open door and say, “Hi Mike, Jimmy Natalie and Sam! How’s Camp?”
Mike says, “It’s going great! We just had the tree-suspension cabins get a new cabin to the set of 5 and also got a lot of donations from alumni so we rebuilt Cabin 7 like it used to be!”
I say in awe, “You mean…”
Jimmy nods and says, “Yup! The cabin you, Mike and I were all in together the first time is remodeled to be just like when we were in it!!”
I reply, “That’s great!”
Mike says, “And, Natalie and Sam managed to trap some of Oscar’s baby turtles and managed to domesticate them!”
“Awesome!” I say smiling ear-to-ear.
Mike and Jimmy and Sam and Natalie go over and are introduced to Haley by Dr. Cockroach as they haven’t met her yet.
As soon as the door closes, the door bell rings again!!!!!!!!
Susan opens the large door this time and we see Chris Kelleher!
“Hi Chris!” Susan says smiling, “We’re glad you could make it to the party!”
“I managed to make time available the old fashioned way…” Chris says.
I ask him, “So you hacked your own scheduling appointment and orders system and made this week empty?”
Chris grins and says, “Is there any other way?”
Chris goes over to Link and helps him out with setting up the multi-channel setting so multiple games can be shown…
A few minutes later Bob gets the door and after he opens it he shouts, “Paul! Some group of guys are here to see you!”
I walk over and see the group is here!
I say, “Hey guys, glad you could make it!”
It’s my old improv group! It’s Ian, Kevin, Matt, Nick, Matt, TJ and Brian!
Ian, the leader of the group, says, “We wouldn’t miss this for anything Paul!”
Matt Gill says, “Wow, nice decorations!”
Nick Gill adds, “And awesome TV!”
Matt Barrieu says, “I’m stoked for the food!”
TJ says, “Me too Matt”
Brain adds to what Nick says, “I wonder which game to watch…”
Kevin Dugan asks, “Is Jimmy Tully here?”
I say to Kevin, “Kevin, that feud between you and Jimmy on Facebook was back when we all were in high school! Let it go…”
Kevin sighs and says, “Fine…”
They all disperse to different areas…
I go over and spend time with Susan who is doing her best to help Carl and Wendy finish up with the dinner table setup…
We all were about to get ready to eat when we heard the door bell ring yet again!
We all know who it was…

--End Chapter 21--

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 22---

Monger says, “I’ll get it…”
Monger walks over to the door and opens it up and sees…
“President Hathaway!” Monger says with utmost respect, “Proud you could make it!”
Hathaway smiles and replies, “At ease Monger, after all it is a Thanksgiving celebration!”
He walks in and everyone who hasn’t met him yet is surprised to see the president here…
Susan and I go over and say hi to Hathaway…
Hathaway smiles and says, “Hello Paul and Susan, wow, who did the decorations?”
Susan smiles and says, “My parents did, they’re professional when it comes to holiday decorations…”
Hathaway replies, “I’ll keep that in mind when I need ideas for decorating the White House for the 4th of July!”
I show Hathaway to the dinner table as it is time to eat!
Once everyone is at the bottom of the large table in a group, Ian Demming asks, “Umm, Paul? I’m always up for climbing but how are we all going to get up there?”
I say to Ian, “Dr. Cockroach installed raising a platform…hold on…”
Suddenly, the floor jerks and starts moving up!
Everyone who isn’t familiar with the floor moving jumps but then calm down and soon, the platform is level with the large table top!
I say, “Well, you can choose where you want to sit…”
Suddenly, the wall of the room opens up to the outside, that is because Insecto is a member of our family too so she gets to partake in Thanksgiving with us!
Insecto already has a large tree which she is to eat.
Once everyone has sat down, they start to talk lightly while waiting for grace…
Mike and Jimmy are sitting right next to the half of Improv Group while Chris was across from them, along with Sam and Natalie, next to the other half of the Improv Group on the opposite side. Carl and Wendy sat next to each other with Monger and Hathaway on the other side.
Then, Bob, Link sat on one side and Dr. Cockroach and Haley were next in the seats opposite of them.
Susan sat at the head of the table with the view of right down the table. Meanwhile, I’m sitting at the small table at the corner of it so I can still see Susan…
Lastly, Jimmy was in a highchair on the table while Sarah was in a large highchair as she was in her big form currently, but she also has a small chair on the table incase she shrinks…
Everything is ready…
I look down the table to Jimmy Tully and Mike and I nod to them to do what I asked them to do…
Jimmy presses a button on the able next to him and Mike and suddenly a bell lightly rings and everyone looks to him and Mike.
Mike says with a smile, “Hat’s off for grace!”
Mike and Jimmy are starting grace just like it’s done at Camp Woodstock!
Everyone understands and I’m the only one with a hat on! I take it off…
Jimmy says, “When it’s quiet, will Haley lead us in grace!”
Haley’s eyes widen and she is clearly honored to be the one chosen to lead us in grace…
Haley clasps her hands together and says, “Thank the Lord, for all that he has given us, may he watch over us and just like our friends, be there for us in our times of need.”
“Amen!” We all say in unison.
We all begin eating and talk lightly amongst ourselves…
Amongst the conversations is heard…
“…Pass the potatoes Monger…”
“…Sure thing Mr. President…”
“…Link! Look what I can do!…”
“…No Bob! Put down the pepper!...”
“…Hey Doc? Can you pass me an extra napkin? I got some gravy on my whiskers…”
“…Sure thing Haley…”
“…Really? You lost your tear ducts in the war?…”
“…Yesseree!…”
“…So Jimmy, how’s Camp?...”
“…Good, how’s improv Kevin?...”
“…Good, Good…”
“…Hey there good looking, come here often?…”
“…Bob, that’s cranberry sauce…”
“…Umm, Susan?...”
“…Yes Paul?...”
“…Please pass the gravy tub please?...”
“…Oh of couse!...”
“…Thanks Susan…”
-------------------------------------------------
After eating, we all go and spend time watching the football games and playing with the babies!
Dr. Cockroach shows Chris a new invention he’s working on and Haley eventually goes to help him out, out of curiosity of what he is working on…
Link and Bob eventually go outside to play catch with a foot ball while Insecto watches…
Susan and I come out and offer everyone chestnuts to snack on…
Then Susan and I go and play with the babies and Sarah has become small again and she giggles at Susan playing peek-a-boo with her!…
The day ends and soon everyone has left and we clean up as the next day is coming. Along with Black Friday! The beginning of Christmas shopping!!!!!!!!!
Also…the approaching UFO!!!!!!!!!!

--End Chapter 22--

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 23---

The approaching UFO contents were unknown and we had no idea who or what was in it…
“Prepare the probe…we’ll see what inhabits this planet…” A masculine voice from within the ship says…
“Probe has been launched,” a more feminine, non-electronic voice replies.
From the ship’s side, a smaller in size probe is launched and is now heading towards earth!
-----------------------
Meanwhile, we were all heading towards Insecto to start our Christmas shopping…
We all were going to the one place that we all could get our presents and that Susan could fit in…The Mall of

America!
If it can fit 258 statue of liberties, or 32 Boeing 747 planes, then Susan could fit in it, even if it would be a

little of a head hitting ceiling, and she could only be on the first floor, but could be in the openings between

the 3 floors, and would have to go under or over the bridges across the openings would be easy so everything will

be perfect!!!
Insecto gave link her list of items she needs for her presents, without revealing who each of them is for…
Dr. Cockroach offers a hand to Haley to help her up and says, “Here Haley, let me help you…”
Haley smiles and says, “Thanks Dr. Cockroach.”
Dr. Cockroach had installed a harness so the babies have a form of baby-car-seat and Susan just finished

harnessing Sarah, who is currently big and I buckled up Jimmy…
Link asks from top Insecto’s nose, “Everyone ready?”
We all give him the thumbs up and Link says, “Alright Insecto, we’re ready to go!”
“SCREEEE!” Insecto roars in agreement and she takes off!
Haley jumps a little as this is her first time flying on Insecto and Dr. Cockroach notices this and goes over to

her, over behind Insecto’s antennae.
“Haley?” Dr. Cockroach asks, “Are you ok?”
Haley turn to him and replies, “Oh, um yeah…just a little shaky, I haven’t flown on Insecto yet so it’s kinda

scary for me…”
Dr. Cockroach smiles and says, “Don’t worry, we’re all here and safe.”
Dr. Cockroach goes over to Haley and Haley leans on him and rests until we arrive at the mall.
----------------
Soon enough, we arrived at the Mall of America!
Insecto landed in the outskirts of the parking lot as to not crush any cars and we all slid down her wing onto

the ground and Susan has Sarah in her arms while I have Jimmy in my arms…
“Well,” Link says, “There it is…The Mall of America!”
Bob wide eyed says, “Wow, it’s huge!!!”
Haley adds, “And it’s full of stores!”
Dr. Cockroach says, “So we’re gonna split up right? So no one sees each other’s presents?”
Link says, “Nah, We can be in groups…”
Bob shouts, “Oooh! I’m with Link!”
Haley asks Dr. Cockroach, “Doc? Can I go around with you?”
Dr. Cockroach smiles and says, “Of course my dear!”
I say to Susan, “Susan, I’ll take Jimmy and you can take Sarah, ok?”
Susan smiles and says, “Sure!”
Insecto lightly screeches to Link and Link replies, “Don’t worry, I won’t forget to get your things…”
We all start to approach the mall and we see Monger standing in front of the large entrance modified for us going

there today.
“Hello Monsters,” Monger says with a smile, “So we had a few of the bridges removed to make maneuvering easier

for you Susan. And I had the large entrance modified as well…”
Susan smiles and says, “Thanks Monger.”
“Also,” Monger adds, “President Hathaway has decided to support your Christmas shopping and all of the stores are

informed to put the charges on a government supplied credit card number…”
Haley replies, “Wow, that makes this even more awesome!”
We all enter the mall and Susan enters after us with Sarah and we all stare wide eyed at the size of the mall!
It is everything we expected and more!!!
Everyone looks at us and we get the feeling that they are gonna fan-swarm, but thankfully, they all understand

that we need to shop just as much as they do and they go about their business…
I say, “Alright, let’s agree to meet up back here around 1:00 PM for lunch, it’s already 10:30 so we’ll be able

to get in a good amount of shopping done…”
Everyone agrees and we all separate to start our shopping!
I head over with Jimmy in a mall-stroller to the first floor and find a store that has the perfect gift for

Haley, a pet store with special items not found in regular stores…
-----------------------
Link and Bob head over to the Sharper Image Store and Bob tells Link not to come in…
“Bob, don’t eat anything in there…” Link warns Bob…
Bob smiles and says, “Ok, but you can’t see what I get!”
Bob happily goes in and a few minutes pass and then Bob exits with his arms full of wrapped presents and says,

“Hey!!! The stores are offering this kind of wrapper for the presents!”
“Wow Bob,” Link says, “You got all your shopping done in one store?”
“Why yes…yes I did!” Bob says proud of himself.
Link says, “Alright, follow me Bob, I gotta go get some things as well…And for Insecto too…”
Link heads to the elevator to go up to the next floor and Bob follows him…
--------------------------------------
Meanwhile, Susan and Sarah are peeking through the store windows to find what they are looking for from in the

openings between the three floors…
Susan is looking into a store that is all baby clothes looking for something for Sarah, when she is small and for

Jimmy as well…
“Talk about window shopping,” Susan says under her breath with a little giggle at her own joke…
A sales associate walks out and asks, “Excuse me, do you need some assistance?”
Susan smiles and replies, “Yes please…I’d like that camouflage baby clothing set and also the same set but in

pink please…”
The sales associate leaves and returns with the clothing, already wrapped!
“Here you go,” the sales associate says with a grin.
“Thank you!” Susan replies, taking the presents into the bag she brought for the presents she bought and then she

resumes shopping…
-----------------------------------------
Dr. Cockroach and Haley are on the top floor and are in a technology store…
Dr. Cockroach eyes are wide like a child in a candy store, Haley smiles at Dr. Cockroach’s expression on his

face.
Dr. Cockroach says, “Umm Haley, do you mind going outside for a little bit, I’ve got to get some things here for

presents…”
Haley smiles and replies, “Sure thing Doc!”
Haley leaves the store and spots a store she thinks has items that Dr. Cockroach would like for Christmas!
Haley sneaks over to the store and gets what she needs and once it’s wrapped, she returns to the front of the

store right before Dr. Cockroach exits the store with a few bags of unknown contents…
Dr. Cockroach notices the present in Haley’s hands and says, “Well, I see you’ve got a present taken care of, and

I’m done with my shopping! Now…where do you want to go for your presents, I’ll hold them for you…don’t worry, I

won’t peek!”
Haley smiles and says, “Alright, follow me…”
They head down the mall and Haley gets more presents…
-------------------------------
Over where Jimmy and I are, I am currently getting a present for Susan!
I take down the present I found for Susan and say to Jimmy, “Jimmy? Do you think your mommy will like these?”
Jimmy giggles at the shininess of the present and I say, “Then it’s final, I’m getting two of these for Susan!

Plus, they’re the perfect size!”
I have the present wrapped in a large industrial sized box with a lot of bubble wrap and packing peanuts and then

I realize that I finished my shopping and so I head over to the food court at the entrance we used to get into the

mall…
--------------------
Eventually, everyone is finished with their shopping and we meet up at the Food Court previously mentioned, each

of us with arms full of presents and then we have a light lunch and head back to Insecto to head home…
Once we get to Insecto, Insecto lightly roars at Link and Link replies to her, “Don’t worry, I got what you

needed!”
Insecto has a large box Dr. Cockroach made for toady to put al the presents in and once they’re all in it, we all

get onto Insecto and she picks up the box and takes off!!!
--------------
Meanwhile in the outskirts of Shrewsbury, MA, the robot probe sent out by the UFO is about to land!!!
Dr. Jacob A Conca, the principal if my old high school, St. Johns is just making an announcement to the current

student body…
“Attention men(he calls the students that, or gentlemen), we are going to have an early dismissal today on

Friday, in honor of Founder’s Week for our school, and that is right now! Enjoy the rest of the weekend and make

good decisions, remember, we’ve got 2 more weeks of school before Christmas break, keep strong and then you can

fully enjoy the Christmas break when it comes!” Dr. Conca finishes and soon, the entire student body is leaving the

school…
Suddenly, a loud sound is heard and everyone looks up to see a large object falling towards earth!!!
Everyone panics and then the object lands in the school’s football field!
Nothing else happens so everyone approaches the strange object…
It’s a large round orb!
There are strange markings on it and the markings have a red hue to them…
Suddenly, it opens up and the midsection twists slightly and slides up to reveal two glowing red eyes!
The bottom opens up and it reveals a bipedal robotic leg system!
It’s almost 75 feet tall!!!!!
The robot’s eyes send out a line of red light, which everyone flinches at when it scans the people and then the

light ends…
Suddenly, internal sounds are made which in procession sound like in a mechanical toned voice…
“Sector’s Organic Life has been scanned…Proceeding to scan next Sector…”
The robot starts moving its legs and everyone runs away from it!!!!
It seems to be heading towards the center of Worcester which is right next to Shrewsbury!!!!
It reaches the edge of the Lake Quinsigamond and enters the lake and turns towards the bridge next to the plaza

on the Worcester outskirts!
It walks towards the bridge slowly, clearly intent on going down the street from the bridge into the center of

Worcester!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
---------------
Meanwhile back with us, we just got home and put away the presents in a spare room when suddenly, Monger’s plane

-jet lands!
Monger runs out and says, “Monsters!!!! We’ve got a situation on our hands!!!”

--End Chapter 23--

[mvafan4life]

---Chapter 24---

We all are surprised. Monger has a look of fear on his face and yet, he never shows fear!
Susan asks him, “What’s wrong, what’s happening?”
Monger says, “Recently, a UFO has landed in Massachusetts, and not Boston…”
I say to Monger, “You mean…”
Monger nods and replies, “Yes, the UFO landed in Worcester County, right next to your old school, St. Johns, in Shrewsbury. There it proceeded to become,

from a sphere, into a 75 foot robot probe…”
Dr. Cockroach asks, “Is it…*gulp*… Gallaxhar’s?”
Monger replies, “We couldn’t find that out, it seemed to scan the people around it and then started going towards Lake Quinsigamond, entered the body on

water and then went towards the nearby bridge which would give it a straight away path to the center of Worcester!”
Haley asks concerningly, “Where are the citizens?”
Monger tells us, “Since the robot is so close, those that haven’t fled to the neighboring town, your home town Paulankey, Auburn, are all hiding in the

larger buildings, such as the hospital, the old mall and the upper levels of the skyscrapers in the center of Worcester.”
Dr. Cockroach says, “Hmmm, if the probe is scanning the populous, then it will search for them! Meaning the patients of the hospital are in danger! Along

with the people in the mall, when that robot tries to gain access to the mall, the mall will collapse on it self injuring those inside! And the same will

happen to the hospital!”
I say firmly, “We can’t let that happen!”
Susan says, “We won’t, but, what about Sarah and Jimmy?”
Monger replies, “I’ll stay here and keep and eye on them while you all go and take down that robot!”
We all nod and we all hop back onto Insecto and she takes off!
----------------------
Soon enough, we are in Worcester! And it is snowing! Not too heavy but not too light, it was a moderate snowfall.
Insecto lands right next to the highway placing herself in between the hospital and mall and the direction that Monger told us the robot is coming from…
We all slide off Insecto and Susan stands on the ground while the rest of us are on the highway, fully deserted.
I take in a deep breath and say, “Ah! The crisp winter air of Massachusetts!”
Dr. Cockroach is shivering and Haley asks him, “Are you cold Dr. Cockroach?”
Dr. Cockroach nods and Haley gives him her coat she wore in case it was really cold, which it wasn’t…
“Thank you Haley,” Dr. Cockroach replies with a smile.
Link says, “So, where’s this robot?”
As if on cue, the robot appears through the falling snow!
Haley is a little scared because she hasn’t seen a giant robot yet…
It’s moving slowly and Dr. Cockroach says, “Upon examination, it doesn’t seem to have the deails and patterns that Gallaxhar’s robots have…”
Link says, “Either way, it’s going down!”
Suddenly, the robot’s eyes scan us!
Susan gets a little scared because of the robot gallaxhar sent scanned her and then attacked her!
Insecto stares at the lights while it’s scanning…
The eyes finish scanning us and the robot stops on the other side of the highway…
The sounds emanate from it, making the words “Current Scan complete, diagnosis, Monsters, threat detected! Types consist of 1 Winged Beast, 1 Insect, 1

Beast, 1 Fish, 1 Aqua and 2 Warriors. Initiating Monster Defense, activating Duel Mode!”
“Types? Duel mode?” I think to my self and then say under my breath, “It couldn’t possibly…”
Suddenly, the entire top of the robot’s head starts to glow a strange multitude of colors!
Immediately, a large clear-ish orb of the same multitude of colors, originating from the robot’s head engulfs the entire section of the city, including the

top of Insecto, but thankfully stopping short of the Mall and Hospital!
We all are confused by this while I’m still denying that it’s doing what I think it’s doing…
“Initiate combat sequence!” The robot sounds and we all get ready to do battle…no matter what is about to happen!
