The dawning sun slowly began to rise over the horizon, shedding it's warm light over Cinqville...

...And so Jade made her way home and had to deal with a new concern: how to explain this to her folks?

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade reached her house and stopped.  Should she tell the truth?  The alien factory may sound too fantastic to believe, but she had to tell someone about it.  If that continued things would get alot worse.  But her dad would probably ground her for lying.

She could tell him the truth up until  the alien factory.  She and Steve went up to the mountain, were knocked unconcious by someone up there, and when they woke up it was late.  Then she fell into a hole.  Yes.  That'd be the best course.  And she could tell the police about the aliens later.  And if her dad didn't believe her... who cares, she needed sleep.

She gulped and knocked wearily on the door.  "Dad?"
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade stopped.  "He's not home... or... asleep." she tried opening the door herself.
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

Well, she didn't have her key...but she remembered where the spare was.

A few minutes later she was inside...  where she found her dad snoring on the couch.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade sighed in relief.  Asleep.  She could compose what she was going to say better, what with more time.

But for now, she needed a shower.  So she went to take one.
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

A lone shower wouldn't get that smell out.

A few hours later, a very exhausted Jade collapsed.

It was evening when she next stirred.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade awoke, mildly refreshed but still exhausted.  She waded through her mess of a room and went into the den to see if her father was awake yet.
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

Her father had already left for work.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade left the house, then.  Someone had to be notified of the threat.  She headed out to the police station.
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

Jade arrived at the police station without trouble, getting inside through the open doors.  The station was kind of busy, as always.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade went up to the receptionist.  "I need to report something.  The fate of Cinqville and the world depends on it!"
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

The secretary blinked at the young girl.  "Well, I guess I could let you speak to officer Jinkle."

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Zenthor

Jade thanked the lady and went to Officer Jinkle's office.
iato: *hugs Super* Lala.
redffea: Its that exciting Super?
Supaaielman: *Explodes*

Dracos

Officer Jinkles sat behind his desk.  He was a pudgy man, but strong.  Encroached well in his office, he was the king of this room.

"So...you had something to say?"

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.
