The brothers both got a suprise when Pascal's son, Alan came out of his bedroom. Still rubbing the sleep from his black eyes, he walked straight up to Vidcund.
" We will speak with you.. Curious...Vidcund..." Pascal couldn't believe it was Alan speaking, it sounded nothing like his son. Is this what they had summoned?

The brothers both got a suprise when Pascal's son, Alan came out of his bedroom. Still rubbing the sleep from his black eyes, he walked straight up to Vidcund.
" We will speak with you.. Curious...Vidcund..." Pascal couldn't believe it was Alan speaking, it sounded nothing like his son. Is this what they had summoned? " I just want to get this straight, before anything else.... Your not after taking over the world are you? Because, it isn't really in that good a state after letting humanity grow unchecked."
Alan's eyes were unfocused and his head was tilted to one side,as if listening to other voices.
" There is a problem developing. You wish to solve the matter, we can offer what limited help we can. Is that not more important than our goals?" He sat on the floor and motioned for the brothers to do the same. " World domination is of no interest to our race, be at ease. We wish only to live in peace with you, which is why we selected this small town"
A shiver ran down Lazlo's back as he joined the group talk. He'd not been abducted yet, but his two brothers had. Pascal pulled himself together and sat down also. " The ship that crashed was an accident. The pilot lost control, we are sorry for the destruction we caused. It will be many years before the fuel cells stop burning. Most of the crew returned unharmed, one is still unacounted for. We search still" Alan was silent for a moment.
" But that has nothing to do with the problem you have, does it?" "No. My son Issac is acting strange, he no longer goes about his normal routine. His child is frightened" There wasn't any point in explaining what Astra had told him, the voice already knew if she'd spoken the truth.
" The source of this problem has been growing for a while. We do not understand why it is happening, this is outside our field of knowledge. Strange forces are at work here" " What, are you like, talking about magic and stuff like that? I always loved those stories about turning metals into gold. That sounded so cool"
" Which was why you always ruined the kitchen pans..." Pascal muttered under his breath. Lazlo ignored him.
" That would be correct" Alan replied. " We do not know this concept called magic. It is unique to the human condition. We would hope to learn more about it" He started to yawn. " This unit is tired, we will return control to him"
Alan blinked and stood up.
" Was I sleep walking mum?" Pascal took the dazed child back to his bed. " So, what's the plan bro? I mean, the green guys, seem okay and they've never really hurt anyone"
Pascal frowned, recalling the pain of giving birth, Vidcund said nothing.
" But this what's happening? This demon-stuff..... That's different"
" So, what do we do?" Pascal asked quietly. .....Arr. The Curious Brothers.... Of course , they had to get involved....... We'll see, shall we? Just who is the more intelligent? You or I?..... Things are getting worse. I don't remember that when I went to sleep last night, but it was there when I woke. Was it the same one from outside or had that one moved?
I cried, wanting my Mummy to hold me and take this bad thing away from me. Mummy should protect me......
Mummy? Issac was changing, he knew that and didn't care. there was so much being made clear to him now, he couldn't understand why he hadn't seen it before? The green skins were massing, they must be planning something? But what?
Something started to call to him from the bedroom, leaving his uneaten lunch he followed where it led. "..... Leknat......" He muttered softly, recognizing the deity who had opened his eyes to the truth surrounding him. He still didn't know where it had come from, but he was gratefull for it's guidence.
Deep inside, Issac screamed and tried to fight the feelings that threatened to overwhelm him. " Hica... Leknat.... Ica dos not trea... Menga, ista gonvie.."
Mummy's voice woke me up, but what was he saying? It made no sense, but the bad thing in the room seemed pleased with it. Mummy looked at me then and smiled.
I didn't like that smile.. Issac frowned, wondering what he was doing staring at Vid like this? It felt like clouds had parted in his mind for a moment. He meant to hire a nanny sometime ago, but here he was missing work and where the heck had that statue come from?
" What the heck is happening to me?"
 The next few days were strange. Mummy would leave me lying around all over the house. Bertrum my half-brother took it upon himself to look after me. One day something marvelous happened!
I grew big!
I didn't think I'd still be here, but Bertrum tossed some confetti in the air and made it like a party. I laughted. This was fun! The night wasn't fun. Mummy still seemed funny. He carried me into the kitchen and fed me strange foods. I felt sick and dizzy. " Leknat speaks and says you will consume the potion of power.."
"..power...."
" Only by doing so will he gain control of you and through you, those others who would contest it's power"
" ....power....."
Leknat sounds fun.... *Yawn* My room doesn't seem creepy anymore...
Leknat is watching over me....... Issac stood and watched his son playing, the small child was bashing bricks in time to a chant he'd made up.
" Leknat watch me.... Leknat teach me... Leknat take me..."
This wasn't right! Who the heck was Leknat? What had he been doing all week? He couldn't remember at all.
" I need help" Vidcund was suprised when he answered the phone and discovered his estranged son on the other end.
" Issac?"
" Dad?.... I really need to see you, can you come round?"
" If you want me too, then yes, I'll come" " Your not going to believe the things that have been going on here... It's not normal... Things are moving around, I'm hearing voices.... I think I'm going mad?"
" I'll be there as soon as I can, Issac"
" Thanks .... Dad" Before he left, he wondered how to tell Melody.
" You seem preoccupied Vid. What's wrong?"
" I just had a phone call from Issac.... He wants to see me... Right now"
" Are you going?"
" I can't not go.... It's the first time he's asked anything of me, I..."
She hushed him with a finger.
" ..Have to go.. I know... Fermat's old enough to look after David. I'm coming with you" Arriving at Issac's home, they watched him through the door for a moment before ringing the bell.
" What do you think's inside?"
Vidcund shook his head and waited.
" I don't know... I don't really know..."
