The next day, Acid still got up, and although rather dejectedly, blew up his coffee maker again.
*BOOM*
"AAUUGH!!!"
He returned to his desk and sat down with an unceremonious flump. It was going to be another one of
those days.

He worked through to lunch break, when he got up and walked out of the building. An intriguing piece of
paper nailed to the wall caught his eye.

Calling all citizens of Carrotus!

A serious matter is at hand! A deadly threat has appeared
And we need men(penciled in here with lori's handwriting was: /women)
To fight and save Carrotus! Sign up now!

Phoenix Wing
Fawriel
Jack Flash
Electrik

Acid smiled. If his brother was joining up, why shouldn’t he? At the bottom of the list he penciled in his name.

He then continued his work, however a lot perkier than he was earlier. He even accidentally set off his coffee maker as he hurtled through the room.

On the day of the launch, Acid was a little behind schedule. First, the coffee maker blew up three times instead of one. Then on the way out of the office, he tripped over a stray wire. A lot of other things happened, making him very frayed and scorched by the time he got to the launch pad.

The ship set off towards Terminator’s station. It was a long trip, and the occupants took up little games to occupy themselves. Acid was running back and forth explaining to Jack Flash that it might be better to use a piece of scrap metal as target practice than the ship’s flight computer, telling Fawriel that The weapons cabinet (which was very heavy) didn’t need to be moved to the other side of the ship, and convincing Electrik that playing with the reactor core is NOT a good idea.

Suddenly, a dot appeared on the radar, then quickly disappeared. Everyone rushed over to the display screen. The dot did it again. It repeated this about 20 times, all in different spots. Then the ship went crazy. Alarms went off, the ship jerked back and forth, the weapon systems fired, the lights flashed on and off, Sending the crew into a confusion. When it all stopped, the crew was Very beat up. They had landed on each other, accidentally kicked and scratched each other, and bonked heads a lot.
“Phoenix, you drew blood!”
“Sorry, I’ll try to keep my claws retracted next time.”
“Ow, Fawriel, did you have to kick so hard?”
“I couldn’t see where I was going from the lights flashing on and off!”
“That was quite a shock, Electrik.”
“I can’t control my electricity. I’m sorry it zapped you.”
“Hey who’s that?”
They looked up. A translucent orange thing was standing over them, a smirk on his face.
“NOBODY?”
He nodded.
“What are you doing here?”
NOBODY stopped smirking. “I’d like to ask the same question myself.”
“We’re on a mission! We need to destroy Terminator!”
“Never heard of him. But if you’re so desperate, I’ll make you a deal. I’ll let you and your ship go, but there is something I require.”
“What do you want?” growled Electrik. When he gets mad, the electricity starts flowing a lot more on his body, and He looked like a lightning rod that had just gotten hit.
“You might think you can please me with petty gems or pathetic weapons, but I require something more.” NOBODY said as he walked closer. “I need this.” He held up a globe. The picture was foggy at first, but then it cleared.
“Oh my gosh…” gasped Electrik.
“You need THAT?” shouted Acid.
“How are supposed to get THAT?” added Fawriel.
“It’s almost impossible, you know,” said Jack Flash.
“Do you need anything else or is that all we can do?” asked Phoenix wing.
“I need a human, and a human I will get from you! You have 4 months.” NOBODY snarled. “And if you don’t succeed, then you can say goodbye to Carrotus and all your petty little friends. Then he vanished.

How do you like that?

I got NOBODY in, so there becomes a new plot twist! How will they meet his demand?
