Chel swung the refrigerator door open a little harder than she intended. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zeta just barely avoid getting smacked by it. “Zeta go wait on Lexx!” The creature huffed slightly and darted back to the living room, while Stealth took advantage of the open door to jump [...]
Lexx stood in the little room that Chel said was the bathroom. At least, this is the room he thought she’d directed him to at the end of the hall. It wasn’t like any bathroom he’d ever seen. It was much larger than what he was used to and the setup was different. He just [...]
Lexx took his time. Chel had already finished breakfast as had Stealth. She sat staring at the clock. 4 a.m. It was early, way too early to be thinking. Here she was, about to go off with an alien that had broken into her house and tried to steal her cat,… which he’d transformed into [...]
Lexx finished the oatmeal and leaned back to savor the milk, while Chel poured more in a bowl for Zeta. “That’s all there is.” Chel tossed the empty carton into the trash. That milk went quick. She’d just bought it the previous morning. She noted Lexx looking at her as though he were about to [...]
Half an hour later, Lexx was back in his clothes and Chel had changed into a green shirt and black jeans. Lexx was kind of baffled at her choice of clothing. No coat. Everyone wore a coat, it was the style to wear a long coat. Why wasn’t she wearing a coat? Stupid humans, can’t [...]
Swallowing her fear, Chel reached out with one hand to grab onto Lexx’s sash and walk into the light. Lexx emerged from the transporter onto his ship without a problem, the girl immediately behind him. It was just like walking through a door, although the other side wasn’t nearly as big as the kitchen they’d [...]
Why does Fiction have to make sense when real life doesn’t? – T. Ross ——————————– Chapter 2 “It isn’t much, but it’s home.” Lexx stated. He walked toward the glass wall. There were several structures set into the wall that resembled closed up bookcases. Everything was like these, making the walls almost appear seamless and [...]
“Now that you scanned her, why do you still need her?” Chel inquired curiously. “The system keeps track of them. They all have be on the ship before I can look for the next dice. If one is missing… I have to find it.” Lexx explained, finding it much easier to talk about the dice [...]
“Zeta not invited!” Zeta growled, glaring at the sphere. His tone was laced with jealousy. “You’d drown, Zeta.” Stealth rolled her eyes. “Lexx can breathe underwater. Seen him do it for hours! We can’t!” Apparently, those facts meant very little to Zeta as he whined, “Zeta think not right anyway! We ‘posed to fight other [...]
