And yes, I know I’m not the only person struggling, but I really need reassurance that someone out there still believes and has hope in me. So please, have a little mercy on me.
*The mechanic walks away and freezes along with the passenger. *
*The background changes from inside the spaceship to the wing of the ship. *
Xerneas, it’s time to demonstrate all the prowess and wisdom I’ve taught you through painful and absurd exercises about what it takes to be a master of the mind. Remember, fear is not something that you force. You must implant a seed that grows in the mind of our prey, but you must do it in subtlety. You must make them feel as if something unknown is haunting them, as if there’s a subtle presence observing their every move.
Sidekick: Okay so what type of seed do I have to plant in his head? A tomato seed? Or a pumpkin seed? A mustard seed? That’s certainly going to haunt them forever.
No, you intergalactic idiot! Did you leave your brain in another galaxy or was it never there? I’m talking about the seed of doubt! The type that’s going to make them question about what’s real or what’s not, the type that keeps them awake at night. Nothing loud, nothing sudden, just presence.
Sidekick: Oh, wait listen to this: Why don’t ghosts like to reveal their presence during the day?
(rolling his eyes) Why?
Sidekick: Because they ghost their responsibilities until nightfall!
*The alien side eyes the sidekick for a couple of seconds. *
Sidekick: Don’t worry! I was just kidding; I get what you mean.
Alright then! Show me what you got.
Mechanic: Sir! There are children on this spaceship! If you’re desperately in need of committing suicide, I beg of you, do it on another aircraft! Please, my job is on the line.
Change of background
Passenger pulls out a lightsaber and comes charging towards the alien and its sidekick
*The passenger freezes. *
Xerneas, we’ve been training our whole life for this. Every practice, every mission, every battle, it all leads to this moment. Are you ready?
Sidekick: Ready! Yes! I’ve been ready since the first day that we started training.
Fight scene
Alien: What are you doing??!! I said to the left!
Sidekick hits to the right
Are you alright?! No, I said 45° north of east!
Sidekick: No! I’m all left!
This puny child that I’ve trained and taught for years… that I’ve taken in so graciously when no other wanted him. Sure, I thought he would fulfill the prophecy and bring down the Good Side, but I now see the mistake of an old creature, too devout to a cause. How I made him carry me on his back and run for miles… and how he now spits on my pride and legacy. I’ve been around for too many centuries to allow one so young and mushy to ruin my name! And ruin it in stupidity, let us not forget. Can’t even hold a saber! Can’t even tell left from right or up from down or drive the TARDIS. Use-less. He is less than of no use to me in this time of need, for the Humans prove today that they have determination for what they lack in intelligence and swiftness.
Just look at how that one has studied us and scrutinized my every move. They are perhaps more capable than what I thought. They must have evolved while we were all busy. A shame. Nonetheless, they cannot win. I’ll have to make sure to dump the child on a desert planet sooner or later, he can’t be allowed to foil my plans time, after time, after time. Enough is enough! The reign of my species shall soon commence! And only the strong shall be graced to see it at its apogee! Listen to me! All of you! Fear meeeee.
Fighting scene continues
Alien: Oh! I’m too tired to continue to fight, let me take a break. Hey! You! Replace me for a second.
This time, I’m going to show him my real power and he’s going to regret treating me like trash.
Wow! What a great job! I’m impressed! Come, give me a high five.
I’ll give you a high five! Smiles weirdly
*Sidekick pushes the alien off the spaceship
The end.
