[During class]

Mrs. Rose: (Teaching her students algebra) And the simplified fraction for 4/12 is...

Thomas: (Raises his hand) 1/3?

Mrs. Rose: Correct! (Writes the answer on the board)

*The school bell rings*

Mrs. Rose: Alright, class is dismissed. Have a great day rest of your guys' day

*Thomas and his friends are chitchatting*

Pola: Well, I better get going now. I gotta help out my mother at the bakery. See ya (Walks off)
Jack: Me and Mitch have to go some grocery shopping right now (Waves Thomas and Desiree goodbye, along with Mitch)

Thomas: How about you Desiree?
Desiree: Oh, I have to help my dad with dinner (Walks home)

Thomas: Now, what about me? Nah, looks like I got nothing to do. Guess I better head home
Christa: (Behind Thomas) Hi Thomas!
Thomas: AH! (Turns around) Oh, Christa?
Christa: Hi there

Thomas: I thought you're...

Christa: Still in the hospital? Oh no, the doctors released me

Thomas: Really? I thought

[Flashback showing Mitch talking about Christa being in the hospital again]

Mitch: she got discharged from the hospital for no reason, and then she got sent back to the hospital for some rest

[End of flashback]

Thomas: Ugh, let me guess they found out

Christa: Yeah, and the doctors were very angry about it. They say want me back to the hospital, and I was released after that

Thomas: Well...that was unusual...

*Something unusual arrives at the street*

Christa: Hey, Thomas

Thomas: What?
Christa: Behind you!
Thomas: What's behind me? (Turns around to see a weird-looking alien smiling at them) What the heck is that thing?!

*The alien launches a flash attack towards them, as they dodge*

Thomas: What is that thing?!
Christa: I don't really know. But, is it from space?!
Thomas: I have no idea

*The alien attacks Thomas*

Thomas: Ah!
Christa: Thomas! VK fire! (Launches a fire attack at the alien, but it dodges the attack)

Thomas: Woah, it dodged it!

*The alien then defends himself with a shield*

Christa: It's using a shield

Thomas: That won't be a problem, I'll take care of it from here, trust me (Grabs his steel rod and charges at the monster) Take this, slime bean! (Attacks the alien) And take this! And this! (Takes numerous hits against the alien)

*The alien then fires a beam at Thomas*

Thomas: AH!
Christa: Thomas! (Carries Thomas, as he's about to faint) What happened?

Thomas: I don't know what was that?
Kion: (Off-screen) Oh, I know why

Thomas: Huh?
Kion: It's a moon alien, one of Quebec's minions

Thomas: A moon what?
Christa: Then, how do we beat this thing?
Kion: What are you talking about? You can't beat this thing (Prepares for an attack) Better watch out for his VK Beam

Thomas: VK what?
Kion: Beam. VK Beam, the most skilled VK move yet

Thomas: Wha?

*The alien prepares to launch another beam attack*

Kion: It's going to use VK beam again

Thomas: Oh boy, here it comes

Christa: Okay then...

*The alien launches its attack*

Kion: Dodge!

*The group dodges the attack*

Thomas: Now, for the moment of truth! (Charges at the monster) take this! (Attempts to attack, but the moon alien deflects the attack) Wah!
Christa: Thomas!
Kion: You got to outsmart him!
Christa: How?
Kion: We have to try attacking this thing in both directions

*Kion and Christa go to different sides*

Thomas: (Struggling to defend himself against the alien) Guys! I'm in a bit of a situation here!

Kion: Don't worry! VK flash! (Attacks the alien in one side)
Christa: VK fire! (Launches a fire attack at the monster, from the other side)

*The moon alien is weakened*

Kion: Now, Thomas!
Thomas: On it! (Charges the alien and attacks it) Boom! Take that, spinach head!

*The moon alien suddenly flees before giving them an evil smile*

Thomas: It got away!
Kion: Don't worry, I'm sure that thing will come back one day to get revenge on us

Christa: Where did that thing even come from anyway?
Kion: I don't really know yet...but perhaps, I'll know in the book

Christa: You know about this alien thingy?
Kion: Yes, perhaps those moon aliens are from this one place that I couldn't quite remember, since a long time

Thomas: What's the name of that place?
Kion: I might have to search it up. I'll let you know if there are any updates (Walks home)
Thomas: Oh okay. See ya

Christa: Bye Thomas, I'll be seeing you sometime (Walks away)
Thomas: Okay, bye Christa.

*Suddenly, a police officer comes in and confronts Thomas*

Thomas: Huh?
Police officer: Are you Thomas Bruno?

Thomas: Um...yeah, what do you want?
Police officer: Come here and I'll explain

*Inside the police car*

Police officer: (Shows Thomas a picture of Sally) This girl in the picture, do you know her?
Thomas: (Examines the picture) Huh? Isn't this Sally?
Police Officer: Perhaps, you want to refer as, Sally Greenfort

Thomas: Sally Greenfort, is that her full name?
Police officer: Of course, and tell me, did you saw this thing too? (Shows Thomas a picture of a teddy bear from the cemetery)
Thomas: Wait...(Has a flashback where he finds the teddy bear from the cemetery the other night) Isn't this the teddy bear that I found at the cemetery the other night?

Police officer: It seems its all connected somehow

Thomas: Wait, did something happen to Sally?
Police officer: Yes. You see, that girl in the picture, she went missing...

Thomas: (Shocked) Huh?! What?!
