EPISODE IV: ENEMY

April 29th, 2044

Orrholmen, Karlstad, west Sweden

A girl gazed silently at the calm water in the little lake. She did most certainly not do this for relaxation, because her eyes were widely, wildly open, and she stared directly at one specific spot in the water.
She was clothed entirely in white.
A boy came up to her, nervously.
“Er… hi, Miss”, he said. The girl made no sign to have noticed him.
“I was thinking”, the boy began, “I should ask you why you’re staring at the water like that.”
“I consider”, the girl said with a cold, emotionless voice, which sent a chill down the boy’s spine.
“Okay”, he nodded, “But I’ve seen you here every day for at least two weeks. Do you need so much time to consider… whatever you’re considering?”
“No”, the girl said.
“Then why do you stand here all the time?”
“I stand here because I planted a seed, and I watch it grow. And I consider.”
“What are you considering?” the boy, who was now mightily creeped out, squeezed out.
“I consider avenging the being that birthed me”, the girl said, never letting her eyes slip away from the water.
“Your mother?” the boy asked.
“I never had a father”, the girl said, “So I can not have a mother. I was formed by a being that ripped a piece of its flesh and transformed it into a child. I spent six years in incubation, and I hatched. Now I am considering.”
By this time, the boy had already gone.

C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg, Sweden

At C.A.T HQ, the morning was flowing by pretty normally. Casper and Peter were playing chess, Tanja manned the telephone to tell off all weirdos of the day, Emelie manned her own telephone to tell off anyone who interfered with anything that was remotely linked to C.A.T, and Johan was reading a book.
“What’re you reading, Johan?” Peter asked while moving a tower piece.
“Just a book on Norse mythology”, Johan said, “We’ve encountered two Scandinavian mythological beings so far… I figured I should be prepared.”
“I see”, Peter said. “By the way… did they ever figure out where that red light came from?”
“I don’t think so”, Casper said. “Some of the workers speculated it might’ve been another Ultran. Checkmate.”
“Hm, maybe”, Peter said. They were interrupted by an alarm.
“Monster!” Tanja shouted. “Karlstad! Let’s go!”

Orrholmen, Karlstad, west Sweden

Greenmons waded around in the, for a creature his size, little pond. Emitting an eerie, howling sound, the plant monster walked up from the water and immediately walked right through the nearby power plant. Proceeding to destroy an office building, the creature released a yellow gas in the air. Humans screamed, trying to get away from the monster, but as the gas entered their lungs, they could only emit choking sounds as they fell. Greenmons, having covered the entire area in a thick, yellow fog, proceeded towards a nearby high school.
Suddenly, however, something made the monster stop. In front of it stood the white-clothed girl, staring at Greenmons. Her eyes were filled with hunger.
“Food”, she said. Greenmons walked off without a sound, and the girl followed it.
“Food”, she repeated. “I am hungry.”

C.A.T flew around Orrholmen, finding no monster. All they saw was a yellow fog which got thinner and thinner.
“Scanned”, Tanja said. “It’s poisonous, all right.”
“Gotcha”, Peter said. “Let’s put on gas masks and take a look.” The others agreed, and the C.A.T pilots landed. Equipping gas masks, they went to the damaged area.
“It sure had a short rampage”, Casper said. “It just walked through two buildings and ran off.”
“Hey!” they heard. The team looked around and saw a man running to them.
“Careful, it’s poisonous…” Johan shouted. C.A.T ran up to the man.
“I’m the one who called”, the man said. “Axel Pettersson.”
“All right”, Casper said, “Can you tell me what happened here?” Axel nodded.
“Well, all of a sudden, this giant peastalk-looking thing emerged from that lake there”, he said, pointing to the water. “It turned into that plant monster in seconds, and it began to attack, but it suddenly stopped. I didn’t see why at first, but then I noticed a girl standing there. She seemed unaffected by the yellow fog, and seemed to scare the pants off that monster, since it walked off directly.”
“Weird”, Johan said. “Wait, quiet, everyone” he added and stiffened his ears. When the others silenced down to listen, they suddenly heard a distant, chomping sound.

C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg, Sweden

”Something ate the monster?” Emelie asked, astonished.
“That’s what I think, at least”, Peter said. “The others’ opinions are not my business, but I think something ate the plant up entirely.”
“I agree”, Johan, Casper and Tanja said in chorus.
“Do you have any proof for this?” Emelie said.
“Well, some photos here”, Casper said. “Here you see the area they reported the monster to go to. We saw the foot… er, rootprints of the plant there, along with these other footprints. And a few pieces of giant plant. I think that’s proof enough.”
“I see. What could this be…?” Emelie pondered.
“A very big vegetarian, perhaps”, Johan smiled.
“Or something that wanted salad with its hamburger”, Tanja giggled.
“Just go off and find stuff out”, Emelie shooed them.
“Wait”, Peter said. “There was a girl…”
“Oh yeah”, Tanja said. “Apparently she stared at the thing and caused it to walk off.”
“Really?” Emelie asked curiously. “Did you see her? Did anyone say what she looked like?”
“Er…” Tanja blushed. “We didn’t… ask them.” Emelie turned blood red.
“YOU INCOMPETENT HOBBY-DETECTIVES!” she chased them out of the meeting room.
“Find whatever you can find on the plant from the photos of it. I want anything that can relate it to the second monster”, Emelie yelled, “and don’t come back unless you’ve found something GOOD!”

Statfjord A, Norwegian waters

A white-clothed girl stood at the edge of the platform, staring at the water. Although her face seemed to lack emotion, she suddenly seemed to fell a tear.
“No food”, she mumbled. She turned around, and began walking. After two steps, she simply vanished into thin air.

C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg, Sweden

”Greenmons”, Johan said, putting some files on Emelie’s desk.
“Sorry?” Emelie said.
“I said Greenmons. The plant. Its name is Greenmons. It’s almost identical to a mutated plant encountered by the Japanese Science Patrol ages ago, although this one had more vine-looking arms.”
“I see”, Emelie said, looking at the files. “But it wasn’t created in the same way, was it?”
“No”, Johan nodded. “But this whole thing is pretty mystical already, so I figured this could top the cake.”
“All right”, Emelie said. “We know WHAT it was. What good is this?”
“Nothing”, Johan admitted. “But I was supposed to find something about the plant.”
“Yes, I did say so. Okay, thank you.” Emelie nodded, and so did Johan before leaving her office.

Oskarsberg Valley, Stefansborg, Sweden

The white-clothed girl stood looking at the valley. She swept her eyes over the area twice before falling a tear from her otherwise unfeeling face.
“Who steals my food?” she mumbled, knowing nobody listened.
“Somebody steals the food I gather. I want to know who.” With no more words, she disappeared.

C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg, Sweden

”Monster!” Tanja screamed. ”It crashed in the city centre!”
“What?” Emelie exclaimed. “Get going! Destroy it!”
“Yeah, I’ll…” Casper said. “Where is Peter?”
“He's on recon duty”, Emelie said. “Don’t mind him, get going! Lives are in danger!”

Central Square, Stefansborg, Sweden

The white-clothed girl stood upon a tall building, observing the second Fuegosaurus she had summoned. It was time to find out who stole her food.
Fuegosaurus roared. It charged right into a building, destroying it. In delight, Fuegosaurus fired a heat beam at a nearby building, destroying its roof. Fuegosaurus walked to it to finish the job, when C.A.T appeared in their jets. The white-clothed girl watched with wide-open eyes as the jets battled the space monster, failing to do any real damage. As the jets fought, Ultraman Pole appeared. Grappling with the monster, he tossed it to the ground. Fuegosaurus got up, but Pole kicked it away. As he ran up to attack again, the monster’s thin, violent tail whipped him, then grabbed him and pulled him to the ground. Fuegosaurus hit Pole with its heat beam repeatedly, failing to do any real damage but keeping him down.
C.A.T concentrated fire on Fuegosaurus’ tail, severing it. Pole got up, tossed the remains of the tail aside and then kicked Fuegosaurus in the chest to get even. He then punched the side of its head, downing the monster. Taking the opportunity, Pole crossed his arms and fired the Polium Ray, destroying the new Fuegosaurus.
The white-clothed girl faded into nothing as she muttered one word.
“Enemy.”
