“Then who is going to save Uan and Phoebe?” Asked Calvin.
“I can’t do both,” replied Xiao.
“Drop me off with the ugly guy and you go save Uan and Phoebe,” requested Calvin. “Let’s move. We don’t have time argue. Uan won’t be able to hold Malcolm off for very long, wounded the way he is.”
Xiao grabbed Calvin, gave him her sword, dropped him on top of the Alpha then popped over to help Uan.
“Hey you,” shouted Xiao running at Malcolm throwing some darts at him. A couple of them pierced his body distracting him from Uan. He cloaked and went after Xiao who quickly disappeared. Xiao reappeared next to Phoebe and beamed her back to the house.
“Denise!” Yelled Xiao. “Here’s Phoebe. Do what you can to save her. I’m going back for Uan.”
“Morgan, help me get her into the guest room. Pico come with us.”
Xiao returned for Uan. As she stepped on top of him in order to transport him to Morgan’s place, Malcolm showed up next to them.

The Alpha was stunned by Calvin dropping in on his head. He lost his rifle, but felt he could take out an Earthling. He jumped to his feet and came at Calvin.
“Come on buddy. I want to show you something the guy you shot taught me,” said Calvin pulling out Xiao’s sword he had hidden behind him. He shoved the sword into the Alpha’s chest and then pulling it out spun to the right and sliced through his neck.
“I guess you won’t be shooting anybody else from behind rocks will you?” Stated Calvin looking at the Alpha as he staggered backwards. The Alpha just looked at Calvin perplexed, not understanding what Calvin was saying. Moments later he was face down on the ground dead. Calvin looked back to see how Xiao was doing with Malcolm.
Where did everyone go? Thought Calvin looking at an empty beach except for Uan lying on his back by himself. “Yes!” Stated Calvin seeing Xiao appear on top of Uan, hopefully to beam him away. Then he watched in horror as Malcolm appeared above Xiao driving his sword through her back and into Uan’s chest as the pair disappeared.
“No!” Whispered Calvin covering his mouth and falling to his knees.

Out of view from the others another Alpha appeared in the trees with a rifle. He trained the rifle on Uan when he heard a noise behind him. He swung around to see what it was.
“Don’t shoot,” said Yoyo lowering his goggles. “I’m a friend.”
“Okay friend. Why are you here?”
“I’m here to stop you from killing the captain of the Euclidian ship that’s in space above this planet. Can you explain the fighting that’s going on?”
“Malcolm is the Ossie standing up with the weapon fighting Uan, the other Ossie. Malcolm is here to kill the captain. I don’t know who that person is, pointing at Xiao.”
“Where is the captain?”
“I don’t know.”
“I want you to kill Malcolm,” stated Yoyo. “Oh no! I think he just killed those two people. Okay. Just use your weapon to kill Malcolm. Wait, those two people disappeared. Find out their coordinates. Now Malcolm is gone”
“I’ll try. Transporter room, can you send me Uan’s coordinates? Here they are,” said the Alpha showing Yoyo his UCD.
“Thanks, I got them. Now go ahead and kill yourself,” demanded Yoyo.
The Alpha’s rifle could be heard going off as she had her transport room beam her to Uan’s coordinates.

“Look! Xiao’s returned with Uan and they’re hurt,” said Betty to Dominique. “Denise, we have two more casualties for you to look at.”
“Put them in Xiao’s room,” Denise replied. We’ll be finished with Phoebe in a minute.”
Betty, Norma, Chaell and Dominique placed the bloody bodies of Uan and Xiao onto Xiao’s bed.
“Who is that?” Screamed Norma pointing at a small hooded figure that appeared in the room wearing goggles.
“I’m a friend,” Yoyo said in Euclidian holding up her hands noticing the shock in everyone’s face. “You must be the captain,” Yoyo said addressing Chaell who nodded. “I came to help save you. The Alphas planned an attack to kill all the ship captains that were responsible for attacking their planet.”
“Welcome,” replied Chaell.
“I believe she said that she is a friend who came to help save the captain,” said Betty to everyone.

“Captain, this is Malcolm. Can you find the whereabouts of Uan and beam me there. I have reason to believe he is with Shisal.”
“Sure Malcolm. I’ll have the transport room take care of that. You should be there momentarily.”
A few seconds later Malcolm was standing in Morgan’s house. Denise was just walking out of the guest room to take care of Uan and Xiao with Morgan and Pico following behind her. They stopped at the sight of Malcolm. Looking to his left Malcolm saw Morgan carrying Pico who was lifting his arms at him.
“No you don’t!” Said Malcolm, kicking Morgan and Pico to the floor. Malcolm knocked Denise to the floor as well before turning to face Chaell. “Now your turn to die captain,” said Malcolm lifting his sword above his head and running at Chaell as he cloaked.
