The Dimension Travel Trilogy: A Three Part Science Fiction And Fantasy Novel (45 page)

From there, she had fallen asleep. Her employee and I were talking about how nasty she was. From there, I told the employee that we're fugitives. Somehow she overheard it. We walked out of the RV. She wanted to arrest us and take us down. But, unfortunately she couldn't", answered Tom. "Is that the whole story about your experience?" asked Strega.

"No", answered Light. "Well, this is what I'll have to say to you. You will be telling me the rest of the story", replied the witch.

"Now, there hasn't been much more experience in the alien city since the incident with the prosecutor and imprisonment took place. After, fleeing from the prosecutor, we went to the gas station. I was fueled up. Now, I am sure you're wondering why a robot would get filled up at a gas station. Well, I am a shapeshifter because I was built in a factory and I am sun-proof. So, that means that I can survive comfortably on the sun. However, I can't survive for long periods of time on the sun. I can survive sun-storms, and also travel at mach one thousand speeds. More importantly, let's get back to the story. Now, I was fueled up. Finally, it was a relief getting ready for the open road.

But, unfortunately, we now, had to encounter a roadblock by the Starmos Police Department.

All of the officers were checking all of the vehicles exiting the city to make sure that we were not in them. Fortunately, the officer searched our vehicle and, he didn't know that we were on the road leaving. We were able to leave the city. Now, I was thinking it was a relief for that ordeal to be over. But, it was far from over. Now, the prosecutor decided to go on the air waves. She announced to all of the citizens of Starmos City that we were on the loose and, she also sought an approval to carry out an invasion in California County to find the three of us. Fortunately, we evacuated to Earth in time to alert the mayor that Cornelius and the malevolent alien government were coming to invade Earth and, all of the citizens are now evacuated and, here we are today", said Light dramatically. "Interesting story", replied the witch. "Now, what are you going to do to help us?" asked Jack. "Oh nothing, yet", answered the witch.

"Why?" asked Will angrily. "Young man, don't you take that tone with me", answered the witch abruptly. "I am not taking any tone with you", replied Will. He sighed in exasperation. "Excuse me, don't lie to me, young man", argued the witch. "Who do you think you are to call me 'young man'?" asked Will. "I am Strega the witch", she answered. "And, who are you to be so bold to me?" "I am Will Von Alien", answered the innocent alien fugitive. "Now, you are representing your alien city. And, do you want to place a bad vibe out there and, do you want to make people look at your city in a horrible way?" she asked. "My origin is already bad enough. How much worse can it get?" asked Will.

"I can put a spell on you. Then, things will become way much worse than it is presently", answered the witch. "Okay, very well then.

I guess I'll keep my mouth shut", replied Will. "Thank you", said Strega. She walked over to the back of the kitchen to the primary pit.

"What are you doing?" asked Jack. "I am getting something that is important", answered the witch in her soft spoken voice. She placed her pointing index finger in the soot remains of the cooked breakfast.

Her green finger was turned into a black stub with a nail. She walked up to the table and, wiped her finger across the map. After doing that, the map lifted off the ground. The trio of fugitives’ eyes started to open widely in shock. Jack fainted being one of the first-hand witnesses of this occult scene. The map started to float in midair facing the trio of fugitives.

"Now, guys, it is up to you to help rescue the Earthlings. With great power, comes great responsibility. Make all of your decisions wisely and carefully. Now, I am sure that your eyebrows are raised regarding some questions that you may ask. So, I am going to take some questions in a couple of minutes. But, I will describe to you the map. Like most other maps, it is typical for this map to have a key or a symbol box, usually on the bottom right hand corner. This box will show you all of the places that you will have to go through or reach.

The circle represents you. This obsolete looking map can detect your location very easily. The square represents the major points on the map. I will tell you about the major points of interest later. But, your main point of interest is the Garden City. You all will be heading there. I will give you the token to take you there", said the Witch.

She disappeared after she said this. The room just became empty after she vanished and the lighting returned back to the dependence on the oil lamps. "She disappeared quite quickly", said Jack. The scroll fell back onto the shale table. All of a sudden the map disappeared. "Light, see how much fuel you got", said Will. "I have plenty of fuel to go to the Garden City", replied Light. "Okay, are you ready to go?" asked Will.

"Yes", answered Light. "To everyone, I wish you all a good voyage. Farewell", said Jack. Everybody said A Goodbye to Jack Woodston. Will crawled through the tiny thirty six inch opening and, he left the Fox's abode. Tom followed and, then Light was the last one to leave the abode. Now, that the trio of fugitives left the abode, they have to discuss a plan for the evacuation from California County, New York. The trio of fugitives huddled in the valley and started to discuss their plan. "What do you want to do?" asked Light. "I don't know", answered Tom. "I have the plan", answered Will. "What plan do you got up your sleeve?" asked Tom. "I am going to go over this plan in chronological order. First thing and foremost thing to do is to, be extremely sneaky and quiet when we're going into town. Noises are the official calling of evil. Now, continuing on, after sneaking into town, Light, you will shapeshift into a vehicle. From there, you will continue on going down Goodluck Street. You will then turn down the municipal street and, use it as your take off pad. Once you take off, you'll exit Planet Earth and, travel to the Garden City", answered Will.

"I have a question", replied Tom. "And, what would that be?" asked the benevolent alien.

"Why do you have to use the municipal street as the take off pad?" asked Tom. "Because all the other streets in town are only a quarter of a mile long if not less. And, the municipal street in town is two miles long which is a lot of space for a takeoff pad", answered Will. "I guess it makes a lot of sense", replied Light. "Alright, so is everyone ready to carry out the plan?" asked Will. "Yes", answered Light. Tom refused to give an answer. "What's wrong, Tom?" asked Will. "Nothing", answered Tom. "Well, why aren't you answering the question that I asked you just now?" asked Will. "Because I don't agree with what you're saying. I think that we should use the business street as the takeoff pad instead of the municipal street", answered Tom. "Let's get some things straight. First, I am the leader of the group. Secondly, this way is going to be safer and quicker because this road is the most secure road in town. And, thirdly, it is not your prerogative to tell Light or I where to go", replied Will.

"It is my right. You should have to explain to me everything.

Why should I have to explain everything to you when you don't explain everything to me?" asked Tom. "First of all, I am the leader of the group. I am the benevolent, chosen one. And, I have great power and, I am extremely responsible. Unlike you, you're extremely irresponsible. You jump into a lake because you see a talking fox. You shouldn't be creeped out by a talking fox. Because, if you weren't creeped out by a talking green alien, why should you be creeped out by a talking Red Fox?" asked Will. "What does this have to do with what's goin' on right now?" asked Tom. "Good point. You're right, it has nothing to do with what's going on right now. You know what, we should get ready to head over to Garden City", answered Will. "Thank you", replied Tom. "Maybe, you should be the leader", said the benevolent alien sarcastically. "You know what. Maybe you're right.

Maybe I should be the leader. I think it would be better if I was the leader. Besides, I carry a huge ego on me. And, I am super proud and, you're not", replied Tom. "Let me tell you something, Tom. I will have Light leave you here if you keep acting so pompous and so egotistical. If you keep acting like you know everything, I am going to really flip out on you. And, you don't want that to happen", said Will.

"Yeah, uh huh. You're so right", replied Tom sarcastically.

"Thank you for saying that", said Will happily. "Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You're very very welcome", replied Tom sarcastically once again.

They continued walking. Light is silent as a mouse. Eventually, they climbed the steep, Earthly walls of the valley. The agile alien climbed up first. As, he is climbing up, erosion started to take place in the ground. He slipped down the hill back into the valley. "What's wrong?" asked Tom. "Oh, nothing", answered Will. "You know, if the leader is hurt. I guess that you'll have to leave the leadership position.

So, tough luck for you", replied Tom.

"Hey, that's not fair. I am still able to get up. Here I'll show you", said Will angrily. The benevolent, natural born leader alien sprung up immediately after he slipped into the valley. He ran up the Earthly wall like a cheetah running up a tree to catch its prey. Tom had a facial expression of shock. His mouth opened in shock like a gaping hole in the Earth. His eyes widened like a bug and, he was impressed. "Forget about all of the things that I said about you. You're going to continue being the leader of this expedition from now on.

After all, we have to rescue the citizens of Earth", said Tom. He trekked up the slanted, nine foot tall, dirt wall. Light was waiting at the bottom of the valley. "As a robot, I am not going to be able to make it", he said.

"Well, how will we be able to get to Garden City?" asked Will.

"I know this small valley. If I walk straight through the valley, the land will become flatter and, this valley is sort of like a short cut to town", answered Light. "Okay, then we will return into the valley", replied Will. Both, Tom and Will jumped back into the valley. The benevolent alien led the way to town in the valley. It looks like a mundane wilderness. Noises of leaves crunching are being heard behind the trio of fugitives. A gargantuan figure is stalking them. The trio of fugitives are oblivious of giant's presence. Will was the first to notice. He stopped and listened. Silence is present in the wilderness.

He continued again in the valley. The noises of the giant are increasing in volume. Will once again stopped. Tom turned around, unaware of this gigantic soul. He (Tom) looked at Will. "Why do you keep on stopping?" he asked.

"I think something is behind me", answered Will. "What do you mean?" asked Tom. "Well, I think you should look up", answered Will. Tom looked up. He screamed and ran. Will turned around. The Goliath sized officer is back and, ready to hunt the trio. "It's about time. I have all of you held hostage. You all are very disgusting. Look what you did to the great ruler Cornelius Von Alien. You tried to poison him. But, now, you all are going to jail with me. And, I am going to take you and all of mankind and, you'll see where all of your friends will be ending up", said Brutis.

"Oh we won't run. In fact, I'll generously turn myself in", replied Will sarcastically. "Fine then, can you put your hands behind your back?" asked the cold-hearted officer. "I don't think I know how to do that. Can you teach me?" asked Will. "Sure", answered the Goliath sized and Goliath mind officer. The officer placed both of his hands behind his back. Will reached his hands into the officer's pocket to retrieve the shackles. He shackled the officer. The officer is unable to hear the clicking of the chains locking. Brutis had been cuffed and restrained. "Now, you try it", said the officer. "Okay", replied Will.

"Do you realize that you're cuffed?" asked Tom. "Oh my God. Yes", answered the officer. Will laughed. "Did you know that I lied to you just now?" asked Will.

"Yes", answered the officer angrily. The officer made a couple of attempts to break free from the shackles. Fortunately, he couldn't break free. "Maybe, I can't use my hands. But, I can use my feet and legs", said the officer. The officer started to run. Due to his size, he couldn't travel at the rate of the fugitives. As he's running, he tripped on the ground. The trio of fugitives vanished from the officer into the town. "Hey, come back here", yelled the officer angrily. "No", shouted Tom. The officer lied on top of the ground. The three fugitives arrived into town. They entered the county the same way as they evacuated. It is now, eight in the morning and the, town is still desolate. It practically looks like a ghost town. The only difference is that the buildings and paint on the houses have not been worn out from lack of maintenance for the evacuation. All of the streets appear to be the same. There are only very few differences from fifteen hours ago.

First and foremost, the town is empty of people with the exception of only one citizen and two visitors. The houses are all boarded up as though people are ready for a hurricane or tornado. However, on the rooftops of the houses are occupied with officers from Starmos City.

They immediately stared at the trio of fugitives.

Fifteen officers started to descend down their ropes from the rooftops of the houses. From there, they started to run up to the trio of fugitives. As they're running, Tom and Will became anxious. Light was the only one to remain calm. "Shapeshift, Light", hollered Will.

Light started to change from a robot to an LSC in the matter of thirty seconds. The officers are closing in on the trio of fugitives. "Get in", exclaimed Light. Both Tom and Will entered the vehicle. The officers started to climb on top of Light.

"Get off of me", he shouted. The officers attempted to punch through the glass. Fortunately, the officers who attempted to punch the glass injured their four-fingered hands. Light initiated his gigantic windshield wipers. These wipers are about one foot in with and six inches in height. They expanded and contracted when necessary.

Light expanded his wipers and, the officers on top of him jumped off.
