They look through the telescope that cuts through atom and photons obscuring our view of the real sky and see silhouettes of large creatures. The real sky is a midnight blue-to-purple and full of stars of many colors. There's no signs of civilization, or land either, yet there's glowing trees growing from the depths of the ocean? Makana then asks "Is this another planet?", "Technically no, it's a alternative world reflecting ours; like pretend our shadows are actually alive too, atoms are hiding that we're on opposite sides of the same coin.." Eclair explains. "That sounds scary, like isn't messing with atoms dangerous?" Lei asks, stepping back from the telescope.. But her BFF exclaims to her "That sounds crazy; even if they're 'close'!". Sunny sighs "I hate to agree mom, but if they exist 'with us' we're all already interacting on a omnipresent-ish level?". The BFFs simply stare in silence: they have no idea what's going on anymore. Eclair simply explains "It seems that way; but their world is actually physically touchable!", "But how do you know if it's safe?" Sunny asks. "Yeah I agree: there's probably a REASON we can't speak to them?!." the boy warns, but another scientist butts in: "You kids don't know what you're talking about! If we sat around being worried all the time, mankind would've never made any progress!!". Eclair then interrupts him "Mr Giovanna, that's quite enough. And we're suppose to be the best of the best: disbelief comes with the territory: relax?", after hearing her warning, he slinks away.. The woman then says "Now you kids are allowed to stay if you want, but don't touch anything. If Sunny trusts you, then I trust you.", "Thanks! My teacher: professor Kau'i, trusts me around important stuff!". Makana reveals proudly, "He says.." Lei jokes, Eclair then thought aloud "The word 'chill' scares me a little, but it should be okay.". The group talk for a while long, with Eclair even showing off less dangerous experiments through the day and until..
That night the BFFs prepare to leave. As the sleeping quarters were reserved solely to the scientists there/there's no room for them. But Makana and Lei wait at the doorway... "Think Sunny would want to come back with us?" he asks, "No, this was probably her end goal; to find her mom, right?" Lei replies with a irritated tone "It's getting dark fast, let's hurry before we HAVE to depend on just the kart lights?". They go to the golf kart to get ready drive away. Meanwhile: Sunny is preparing to sleep in a room specially made for her; as Eclair planned for her arrival. The blonde is sitting up on her bed, and in fear pulls a strange orb from her purse. It's black and covered in many green-numbers. "I returned to my mother. So what do you want? You said you're not here to hurt anybody, but haven't told me what exactly you wanted to do." she asks it. The orb responds by the numbers quickly launching circles within itself and creating numerical responses; but spoke also. "'Wait'...?" Sunny repeats it's whispers. Meanwhile: Eclair checked her telescope one more time "I enjoyed that challenge; having kids question my sanity was ..funny." She thought aloud to herself "I'm the boss so nobody questions me, I kind of missed another point-of-view." she adds.. Then looks once more to watch the moving silhouettes "If only I could reach through some other way than with this glass...".
A huge claw suddenly bursts through the upper lens! Most scientists start to scream and run, some merely document this sight carefully! Eclair could only back up slowly; no one imagined that the creatures from a world they could barely just see would be able to rip through the dimensions! The lone claw is followed the other, then the very delicate head they belonged to.
The giant bat is 7ft tall with a wingspan of 25ft.. The aforementioned head is violet, and the while the rest of it is midnight blue and covered in shining `sparkles`. The blonde woman could only stare for a moment, trying to resist running and screaming, and tried speaking to the huge thing... " Are you..." she gets out but the thing is shot at by one of the scientists!
Meanwhile, Sunny was told to run! She raced through the hallways, passing mad scientists, until she reached the room in time to see her mother staring at the huge creature! "Mom!" she yells, Eclair turns around "Stay away, Sunny! It's getting angry!" she warns her daughter!
The screams of terror also alerted Makana and Lei, so they rush back inside! The boy gasps and let out a: "What the actual living f..", "Is that one of the monsters???!" Lei yells over him! "I think mom's trying to talk to it, but...." Sunny reveals to them, then the orb then starts beeping; though Sunny can hear its voice. She then wonders at what it said "You want to get closer??", she then walks to the bat, but stops before getting close! She then nears her new friends; who're still staring in surprise. The Bat was merely softly flapping it's wings; this kept the many other creatures at bay, AND stopped the restraints the scientists endeavoured to use. "What should we do? It's.. not really fighting back?." Makana asks as he watched the massive thing float above, "We should RUN! We don't know what it's thinking!" Lei tells him in a sass filled tone. Sunny fearfully says: "I think we should try speaking to it: the orb says it can talk in its language!", "What? Is THAT what you were talking to at night???" Lei asks in realization! "Yes, and it knew this was going to happen, it wants me to get close but.. I can't!" Sunny explains, "We can just throw it up at that thing!" Makana suggested, causing Sunny to smile a little "Yeah, that sounds easy!" she replies. Then sighs hard and runs in it's shadow that sprawled across the floor; then throws the orb it; the thing has some kind of power, she just needs to get it close, right? The orb starts to beep, the numbers move across its body at light speeds. The Bat stops and watches, then makes a soft `squee` sounding noise, its voice even seemed human and extremely feminine (despite the Bat being a otherworldly beast!) Then it outstretched its wings; no longer needing to flutter and light shines from its sparkling fur! Eclair stares in wonder, until she realizes something.. She smiles happily as the light engulfs her! Sunny almost cries "Mom!", but it engulfs and the scientists all around as well! Makana and Lei almost run, but the glow was calm and warm, it seems as if the Bat was inviting them to step into it; assuring them that it wasn't angry with those 2 or the mother and daughter, as she was with the scientists... So they stare at each other, and the Bat engulfs the entire island!
It's a beautiful sunny day, birds are singing, fishes swim: days like this seem normal like every other
