CHAPTER ONE

"What's this about, Mr. S?" Danny asked.

Mr. Smith had called the MBC for an urgent meeting at the clubhouse. The Commander was there too, in a hologram of course. Both of them looked really jumpy, and the MBC thinks it has something to do with what the meeting is about.

"Well, you see," Mr. Smith began. He fidgeted a bit in his seat and wiped a bead of sweat on his brow before continuing. "Two alien species from the 12th Dimension has taken refuge here in Singletown. Both of them chasing after another species which has been helping us protect this town for centuries!"

"Where's the 12th Dimension?" Sam asked.

"The Universe is divided into 12 dimensions. Each of them represents a different part of the Universe. For example, we are in the 3rd Dimension. Rhapsodia is in this dimension too," Cathy explained.

"So, what species is chasing and what species is being chased?" Chris asked.

Mr. Smith pointed to the computer where a file has been opened.

"Heavenians, Grandpa? Aren't they friendly?" Cathy asked.

Mr. Smith nodded. "Sure they are. And they're the ones being chased."

"Hold on a second. What are Heavenians?" Danny cut in.

This time, the Commander broke his silence. "Heavenians look exactly like you Earthlings except that they have a gem embedded in their bodies. These gems hold their power. They emit a very strong aura that will make anybody from other planets fear them, so they wear lengths of ribbon called a Sealer. With the Sealer on, they will pass as a normal human even under the A-scan."

"If they're so powerful, why can't they fight the ones chasing them on their own?" Danny asked.

"They are powerful, but there can't be a perfect species. Of course they have weaknesses," the Commander replied.

"And those weaknesses are the two species chasing them: Chimeras and Quallians," Mr. Smith added.

"Chimeras? You mean the mythological creature that's a mixture of a lion, a hawk, a snake, and a goat?" Chris asked.

Mr. Smith shook his head. "Chimeras don't have a specific appearance. You just have to remember that they are a mixture of random beings. Quallians, on the other hand, are massive monsters. They have an armor of tough scales, sort of like oversized lizards standing on two feet."

"They sound like aliens we usually bust. Why are Heavenians weak against them?" Sam asked.

"When Chimeras touch them, they are paralyzed. Their skin will turn green and dry. When the poison touches their gems, they die immediately. Quallians deal with Heavenians using force. They're just too strong, and Heavenians can't beat them with physical attacks because of the armor. Most die from too much bleeding or suffocation," the Commander answered.

"Basically, Samantha, they are definitely not the usual aliens you bust," Mr. Smith said.

Suddenly the alien alert sounded. Chris took his usual post in front of the computers and his fingers began to dance around the keyboard.

"Looks like we have an alien at the school gym," he reported.

"Oh no! What if they're Chimeras or Quallians?" Cathy asked and bit her fingers nervously.

"Relax, Cath," Sam said.

"Yeah," Danny agreed. "Chimeras are our usual alien since their poison only affects Heavenians. Let's just hope that it's not a Quallian though. Their armor will be a problem."

"Then that's settled," Sam said as she stood up. "Alright, team. Let's bust 'em!"

At that signal, the four MBC members rushed out of the clubhouse and ran towards Singletown Middle School, leaving the Commander and the old Rhapsodian.

"Yes," the Commander mumbled. "Let's hope it's not a Quallian."

The MBC had arrived at the gym, but there was no sign of the alien anywhere.

"Chris, do an A-scan. If he won't show himself to us, then we'll find him," Sam ordered.

Chris nodded and proceeded on scanning the surroundings. "The A-scan is not picking up anything near. He might have already moved before we came. Danny, look out!"

But he was too late. The remaining MBC turned to see Danny in the hands of –

"It's a Quallian! We're doomed!" Cathy exclaimed.

"It looks more horrid than I expected," Sam commented.

Danny was flinging his hands about as he dangled by the foot from the alien's left hand. He had dropped his blaster when the Quallian took hold of him. "Is it time to comment on the alien's appearance now, Sam? Somebody here needs rescuing!" he yelled, panic rising in his voice.

Chris had his blaster in his hands, but he was afraid to shoot because he might hit Danny. And even if he did shoot and didn't hit Danny, how was he sure that it would have any effect? The Commander did say that Quallians are more or less immune to physical attacks. How would they defeat someone they can't hurt? Then an idea popped into his mind. He switched his blaster into a vacuvator and aimed it slowly at the Quallian's right side.

"Good thinking, Chris!" Cathy exclaimed. "Since we can't hurt it, we'll just have to vacuvate it!"

Chris tried to vacuvate the alien, but it was in vain. The Quallian didn't budge.

"It was a good strategy, if it worked," Sam said.

The MBC was getting all sweaty now. They could think of nothing that can defeat the Quallian and its armor.

Suddenly, three more Quallians appeared out of the blue and took hold of the remaining MBC members.

"This is not good!" Chris exclaimed.

"I can see that!" Sam snapped. "We're all dangling by the foot, we dropped our blasters and there's no one else here to save us!"

And just as easily they were snatched, they were dropped.

As the four MBC members recollected their wits, they noticed that the Quallians were ignoring them.

"First they make me dangle about, and now they ignore us? What the heck is going on?" Danny asked.

"I think we should be thankful they're ignoring us," Cathy said. "We finally have the chance to get away."

The four watched as the Quallians made their way to the direction opposite them. Time seemed so slow; the aliens just kept on advancing forward. And when they did stop, they collapsed. Not in one piece, but chopped.

"What is this? I feel like wanting to go back home and hide under the covers," Danny said, his voice shaking. The others were just as afraid as he was, and there was no helping it. There was an ominous aura in the air. They felt like squirrels in front of a lion.

A small silhouette made stood before the chopped remains of the Quallians. He knelt down and touched them and they turned to stone. He raised his head and looked straight at the frozen MBC, acknowledging their presence for the first time.

The MBC was more terrified now. It's because the shadow of the figure strong enough to beat the Quallians and release such a terrifying aura has stood. And he's coming straight toward them!

Cliffhanger..! I don't intend it, I'm just having a little writer's block... And I'm running out of ideas..! It can't be happening..! (T_T)

Do you have suggestions to make the story better..? Please R & R..! I really need it..!
