Lone Star Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 KC stops in his tracks, and stares at the craft. "Police?" Now things were just getting weird. Link to comment
Avenger Assembled Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Eventually the ship came to a halt overhead, its lights and siren still going, and hovered there for several moments. A shimmering column of light formed near the fallen baddies, quickly transforming itself into a humanoid figure in a heavy, bulky suit and big, opaque helmet. Muttering audibly to itself, the figure bent over the fallen criminals and scanned them with some kind of hand sensor. "It's Kara and Lara, all right," it called up to its ship. "Beam them up!" With that a flash of light pulled the alien criminals into the ship, just like the one that had put the visitor there. Waving the sensor around, its face invisible behind the helmet, the suited figure began scanning the nearby area. Link to comment
Lone Star Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 KC was very confused. And this was coming from a boy who was part dimensional squid-monster, or something. He looked at the man scanning the area, and said "Uh, hi." Link to comment
Avenger Assembled Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 The figure in the suit flew up to him, the bulky bubble at the rear turning out to be a jetpack. Once there, it pressed a few buttons around the edge of its helmet, all ominous silence, and pulled away the big grey sphere to reveal a gorgeous humanoid female, her hair an iridescent blue, eyes shimmering green, her voice low and breathy as she said, "Oh, hello. You must be one of the local authorities. I'm Officer Hro Talak of the Lor Interplanetary Authority. Thank you for your assistance in apprehending those criminals." Link to comment
Lone Star Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 KC was stunned. "Oh, uh, no problem. Ma'am. I'm a superhero on this planet, it's my job." Wow. Alien chicks. This was quite a day in the life of Kid Cthulhu. "What are they criminals for, exactly?" Link to comment
Avenger Assembled Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 "They stole that ship," she said with a sad little shake of her head. "And decided to go on a joyride through some of the more primitive planets, robbing as they went. You know they're not even old enough to have a license?" As she spoke, a beam of light came down from the hovering police ship, pulling the fallen saucer inside. "And now they're looking at months in detention, all because they couldn't wait a few more years. Kids, huh?" Link to comment
Lone Star Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 KC rested easy. Although he was uneasy at first, he shrugged his shoulders at the officer. "Yeah, what can you do? Honestly, I think my generation is far worse than the flower children..." For once, a conflict involving aliens and superheroes didn't erupt into epic battle. KC sighed and smiled to himself. Not bad. Link to comment
Avenger Assembled Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 She frowned at that, evidently not understanding the reference, but didn't complain. "What matters is the job is done." She smiled at Kid Cthulu as her ship hovered overhead and said, "If you're ever in the Horsehead Nebula, look me up. There's nothing I like better than fighting alongside a fellow defender of the law." And with that, and a smile, she disappeared in that same column of light. Link to comment
Lone Star Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 "Woah..." KC said as she disappeared before his eyes. "Alien chicks..." KC grinned, the tentacles on his face undulating happily. KC then began to walk back into the city, whistling the theme from ET. Link to comment
