Chapter 3 Crazy Family


The little girl woke up the next day and saw her mother was not there. She looked at around the area and saw her father sitting at the table.
“Morning daddy, Where’s mommy?” the little girl asked.
“She had to take care of something really fast,” her father replied, “But she will be home soon.”
“Okay,” the little girl looked outside the window and smiled.
“Daddy it’s a pretty day my I go out and play?” the little girl smiled.
“Yes, but you first have to finish you breakfast. Okay.” Her father smiled.
The little girl sat down at the table and started eating her food. Suddenly a loud bang came from around the corner of the house.
The little girl and her father ran outside to see the elderly woman outside trying to fix a hole in the roof.
“Oh this is our family,” the father sighed as the little girl was laughing.


Kat, Rain, and their two new friends Teri, a wallop, and Lightning, small blue version of Rain, were flying through the skies of Atmos looking for a place to rest.
“Hey Kat, check it out,” Teri called out to Kat.
“Wayside Diner! Good eyes Teri!” Kat called back to her.
They turned their skimmers and headed down to the diner. They had problems looking for somewhere to put their skimmers but luckily for them they found 2 very small areas behind the 2 giant deliver ships. They walked into the diner and noticed it very full.
“Oh man where are we going to sit?” Teri groaned. “Its almost time for tea too!”
Kat looked around the diner in hopes someone would get up, but there was no luck.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!” screamed a small green merb running from the bathroom.
“Why is it someone is always screaming in a restaurant where ever we go,” Teri looked at Rain who was on Kat’s shoulders.
Kat grabbed the merb by the arm, “Hey buddy what’s the screaming about?”
“Them!” the small merb turned around and pointed to two raptors.
“Oh great Raptors!” said Teri.
The raptors, being Spitz and Repton, walked up toward the two ladies.
“Step away from the toad and we promises we won’t hurt ya,” Spitz growled.
“No way we are not letting you hurt this guy,” Kat growled back.
Teri cracked her knuckles and looked at the two raptors with anger.
“You two better stand down. I haven’t had my tea yet!” Teri angrily said.
Spitz lunged forward but was stopped by Repton.
“Leave it Spitz we have more important things to do!” Repton said walking away from the girls but looking mostly at Kat as they left.
The Raptors left with no threat making Kat a little nervous.
“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” the merb said hugging Kat’s leg.
“Thank you for saving my little brother,” said a British female girl.
Kat turned around and saw a tall, skinny green female merb.
“Your welcome,” Kat smiled. “I’m pretty sure though you should be thanking Teri. She probably scared them off.”
“I WANT MY TEA!!!” Teri growled.
“We have some over at our table please come and sit down with us,” the female merb lead the three of them to the table.
“So what brings you to WaySide?” Kat asked.
“Oh my brother and I were told to leave Merbania for safety reasons,” the female merb answered.
“Yeah. Just in case the Cyclonians come and attack us and kidnap me and my sister,” the small merb added cleaning of the table. He moved Teri’s tea slightly.
“MY TEA!!!” Teri yelled at the merb.
“AHH! Please don’t kill me!”
Kat looked at the female merb and smiled.
“To tell you the truth I would rather face the Cyclonians then run away from them and besides I would rather enjoy traveling the Atmos,” the female merb said as her brother cleaned more and more around the area including the window.
“Would you stop cleaning?!”
“But bacteria!”
“Forgive him.”
“No worries, you know I don’t know your name.” Kat smiled.
“Oh my name is Nadia and my neat freak brother’s name is Ultra.”
“Nice to meet you Nadia, I am Katrina, but you can call me Kat. The girl on my shoulder is Rain and this little guy sleeping next to me is Lightning.”
“My name is Teri.” Drinking her cup of tea.
Nadia smiled. “By the way what brings you to Wayside.”
“Well,” Kat told Nadia about her problems of being a General’s daughter and how she didn’t really feel like she fits in.
“So basically you are trying to find yourself?” Nadia replied.
“Basically it and I am joining in to enjoy the ride and kick some butt here and there.” Teri smiled.
Nadia looked at her brother and then outside. “Oh no!”
“What is it?” Teri asked.
“Cyclonia’s are right next to our ship that we are suppose to leave on!”
Kat looked at Teri and both knew what they had to do.
“We have a plan if you’re willing to go with it,” Kat smiled.
They told their plan to the merbs and both looked at each other and agreed.
The group left through the backroom dressed up as waiters and sneaked pass the talons and onto their skimmers and took off.
“Thank you again for saving us,” Nadia smiled on the back of skimmer of Kat trying not squish Rain and Lightning.
“So where would you like us to drop you off,” asked Teri.
“Well since you guys are on a search of the soul, I was wondering-“
“Sure you can join us! Is that okay with you Teri,” Kat asked.
“Sure, the more the merrier!” Teri smiled.
“Please don’t go upside down!!” Ultra nervously said.
They all laughed enjoying each others company not knowing what was in store for them ahead.
