Cosmic Energy

Chapter 13: Warnings of War

 Shows SKIZZY and his MOM hiding in front of a high security prison, looking out at it.

SKIZZY: So you know what we're doing, right?

MOM: Yea, I'm creating a distraction, so you can get in there and break a friend out.

SKIZZY: Right, you do know why I have to do this right?

MOM: Not really.

SKIZZY: What, then why did you come along?

MOM: I'm trying to be supportive of you.

SKIZZY: What if I was going to break out the worst criminal in the world?

MOM: Listen, I said I'm trying to be supportive, okay? Isn't that what good mom's do?

SKIZZY: That doesn't mean you should be wishy-washy.

MOM: I'm not being wishy-washy!

SKIZZY: We can redefine the word wishy-washy later. Let's just hurry.

Shows TIPPER and ALGA making their way across the Kennedy Space Station. They reach a wide door, and TIPPER unlocks it. The go inside to find a bunch of shuttles, getting prepped for war. TIPPER and ALGA make their way to one of them. ALGA is busy talking about how she's going to make herself more feminine, so TIPPER shushes her.

ALGA (Finishing her speech): ...I'm the most beautiful thing in the Universe.

TIPPER (Pointing): We can't open the hanger door, or we'll be caught. If we can fit one of the ships out of the door we just came in from, we might be able to avoid getting caught. (He points to a small ship nearby) I think that one will work, but it will need to be tilted on its side to fit out of the door. I'll need you to help me with that, because you probably have the most muscles.

ALGA (Horrified): I can't have more muscles than you! That would be unfeminine.

TIPPER: Let's go.

ALGA: I don't look like a man.

Shows SKIZZY and his MOM sneaking up to the prison. They get as close as they can, and SKIZZY's MOM gives him one last look.

MOM: Skizzy, I know I haven't been a good mom to you, but I have a great gift to give you before I go.

MOM takes out an Earth on a plastic stick toy, with a Moon held off to the side by a 180° skinny plastic piece at the North Pole of Earth. SKIZZY gives it a little spin, and the Moon orbits the Earth.

SKIZZY: I have a feeling our definitions of a great gift are not the same.

MOM: Wish me luck.

With that, MOM runs into a spotlight, and yells.

MOM: Oh, I just did something very violent.

The SECURITY GAURDS suddenly look at her, and they suddenly look at one another.

SECURITY GUARD 1: Ma'am, people just don't walk up to prisons and say that.

MOM: I'm turning myself in, isn't it obvious?

The SECURITY GUARDS look at one another again, and SECURITY GUARD 2 comes out.

SECURITY GUARD 2: Ma'am, I am highly doubtful that you committed any form of violent crime, but we are going to have to detain you until we can perform a proper evaluation.

Shows the SECURITY GUARDS arresting Skizzy's MOM, and take her inside. While they are distracted, SKIZZY follows them in.

SKIZZY enters the holding area as they carry in Skizzy's MOM ahead of him, and looks around. He suddenly spots ZRINK in a cell, ZRINK looks at him, and they reach each other.
