Chapter 10

Chapter 10 As soon as Barbara's back was turned, I tossed the Chicken Squad and a couple of hot dogs into the shoe and carried it back to the coop. The dumb, wet squirrel was right behind us. "Hot dogs!" said Sugar. "Of course! The aliens weren't here for chickens, they were after the hot dogs!" "Everybody loves hot dogs," said Poppy. "But I'm not sure a hot dog would make a very good pet." "It's food, Poppy," said Sugar. "The aliens were after food. Good thing we stopped them. Look how many they stole! They filled up their whole spaceship with hot dogs!"

Sugar tossed one to the wet squirrel. "Thanks for your help, Tail!" "What happens to the aliens now?" asked Tail. "Their ship is down for good. They'll send another one. Invisible, next time, to avoid our detection. They'll

rescue their friends and take off. They won't be back. Not after what we did to them. You're safe, kid. We're all safe now." "And we thought they were here for us." Poppy laughed. "Like anybody would eat a chicken!" "They are from outer space," said Sugar. "Who knows what kind of crazy stuff they eat out there." "What's with the shoe?" I asked. "There was nobody left to watch it," said Poppy. "I licked it and rolled it," said Sweetie proudly. "Just like Sugar said." "Ew," said Tail. "Excellent work, Sweetie," said Dirt. Moosh walked into the chicken coop with fresh flowers from her garden. The Chicken Squad surrounded her with a BIG, ENORMOUS, and HUGE Chicken Squad hug.

"Is that the dead squirrel?" she asked, looking at Tail. "No," said Tail. "I'm the brave squirrel." "You sure are, kid," said Sugar. "You sure are."
