Bab 3: Cool crew of aliens

After the barrier was shattered, the suction which followed along was drastic! Everything that had been trapped within that container, be it liquid or beast, shot towards that one cracked spot!

Although the raw force made that hole expand quite a bit, there were still some complications. The sharp edges here and there, seemed like they were destined to pierce through flesh!

That was exactly what happened right after. It took no time whatsoever, for Gustav to suffer a nasty cut right across his left shoulder!

The sudden burn made him flinch, "Shit! Come on... I just got healed!"

At last, the good man met with something he missed dearly, light! The container he had been entrapped in, solely featured a mixture of blue and grey shades.

It was an overlay that would push the strongest men, towards soul-crushing depression!

Anyway, although it felt worth it to be blinded for a short second, light didn't necessarily bring good omen. Once Gustav spotted the kidnappers for example, the little demons he was entrapped with seemed far nicer in comparison!

"Stay calm," One of them urged, but in this case that was an unreasonable request.

These alien-looking creatures were the definition of a vile, plant-based mutation! Their bodies seemed like they solely featured crimson-coloured sticks, which were harvested from a rotten tree!

Regardless of Gustav's panic however, the other side still tried to communicate. Another one spoke out, her tone was soft and feminine.

"We're trying to get you back home," She assured.

A second later, she continued. "We floated into the Triangulum Galaxy a day ago, your home planet is just minutes away."

Although her tone was soft enough, it was difficult to stay calm. Gustav contemplated if it was worth it to attack them!

The one-foot tall demons which got him out of that sealed container, seemed like they were up for a fight. Their fury shoulders were spiked up, and all six of them violently hissed already!

Perhaps they had enough reasons to be hostile? The kidnappers who had imprisoned them to begin with, were terrifying!

They had heads which were almost shaped like a hand! Three straight, finger-like sticks formed what could only be considered a face, and they stretched for a few inches, just to sharply curl backwards right after!

At this point it even seemed painful to hit them, so Gustav finally decided to speak out. On behalf of his entire little pack, he tried to communicate and even ignored his shoulder pain for a moment.

"Home planet? What do you mean? Did we fly into the sun or something?" He asked.

In the midst of this confusion, another one of those odd, two-foot tall figures interupted the conversation, just to make a point clear.

Swiftly but punctually, it pressured. "He doesn't understand what galaxies are, folks. Planet Bardeelus has a vast variety of life, but they're yet to understand the universe."

The same creature faced the seated, huge guest afterwards and urged. "Don't worry, your life will turn back to normal soon. Well, right after we cut your mutated guts out. It's a must, or else your home planet will be stormed by many alien empires, who would want to replicate your weapon-like guts."

Throughout this conversation, those furry demons which Gustav supposedly gave birth to, suddenly surrounded him. They seemed more alert now, and growled like they were ready to fight.

He felt absurdly protected in exchange, and got the nerve to pressure the others. "Isn't there a way to keep my guts, without having to deal with a bunch of weirdos? I don't want to lay any more eggs, but still..."

Although hesitantly, the alien eventually repliee. "That's impossible, too many intelligent beings know of your existence by now. Our crew, the high council of our home planet, and the space safety federation too!"

"We can't count on everyone to be quiet, so we either have to kill you or take your guts. You're lucky that we're cool and all, me and my crew avoided ten galaxies just to keep you safe. Sure it only took a month, but it's pretty stupid to have you killed now after all that trouble." The communicative alien added, and flickered its only, half-foot long arm to assure severity.

Before this conversation could have continued, these aliens got staggered by three sharp, and surely sudden beeps! Their thin-lipped faces curled down in worry, and everyone was frozen silent for a few seconds.

At last, one of them spoke out. "We're being attacked? Impossible!"

Right after, almost every member from the group of aliens, dashed towards one side of the large corridor! Although they were only two feet tall in stature, they were exceptionally fast!

Gravity seemed to be one thing they ignored, as they easily ran across the walls of this place, much like stubborn mountain goats! They had five red, stick-like legs which aided such bizarre movement.

Anyway, just a moment later, that one female alien yelled out. "I thought you said that this planet was filled with idiots! How could anyone be attacking us, rocks can't fly all the way up here!"

"This is impossible, the primitive creatures on this planet couldn't have evolved this fast! They're exceptionally close to Triangulum's bulge of stars, so according to the laws of time-dilation, our last visit here wasn't even ten years ago!" One of them debated.

This issue put the entire crew through some stress, indefinitely, and at this rate most of them even forgot about Gustav! One of these aliens was left behind, and he tried his best to tend to the guests.

In a nervous tone, it said. "Well, let me take you to our medical room. It's not fangled enough to handle mutant cancerous cells, but it's a pretty good substitute."

Afterwards he pointed that one and only, crimson stick-arm towards the opposite direction of the corridor, for the sake of universal etiquette. Before the guest could stand up however, disaster struck!

A notorious blast against one of these silver walls, helped him understand that his shoulder-wound now, was nothing in comparison to what might come next! The spaceship was struck, to the point where it suffered a huge hole!

"What in the fatty-fish fuck is going on!" Gustav shouted, as he had never seen anything like this before.

This devastating penetration, created an intense suction stream across the light-silver coloured corridor. It lifted him up almost immediately, regardless of how he was six-foot tall!

It was apparent that only a few seconds were necessary, for him to fly out of this ship, where a brutal death would await. Through that crucial moment however, he felt a few sharp cuts across his naked body!

"Ah!" He had to shout.

The six demons who were unfortunate enough to be a part of this dilemma, were mostly immune to this great problem. They spat at the laws of gravity, with the aid of their big and curled claws!

Each of them had dug deep enough in this ship's metal interior, that they actually seemed capable enough to rip it open! As for now however, they wanted to make sure that Gustav wouldn't get sucked out of this spacecraft!

Horrified and confused, he could only notice one thing after this point. Through the exploded wall, he spotted a large layer of blue which looked a lot like the ocean!
