隔壁外星人 · 4 Trick or Cheat

2 Zeke Revealed

Two Zeke revealed. HARRIS WAS VERY CONFUSED. How can Zeke go as himself for Halloween? He may be an alien, but he just looks like a normal kid.

"I'm not sure you understood what I said about dressing up for Halloween," he said. "The whole point is to not look like yourself, to dress up as something different, or something funny, or scary."

Zeke smiled. "I do indeed understand. There's something I haven't told you about myself yet," he said. I know that he's an alien. I know he comes from the planet Tragas and that he has some pretty cool powers. But what hasn't he told me? Harris wondered. "The way I look," Zeke began. "I mean the way I look now, like a human, that's not the way I really look."

"What do you mean?" Harris asked, more confused than ever. "My human appearance is only a disguise," Zeke explained. "People from Tragas have the ability to change our appearance. We can make ourselves look like the inhabitants of whatever planet we're currently on. This is very useful when my parents and I move from planet to planet for their research. It allows us to blend in."

Harris had to sit down. Somehow, this was even more shocking to him than learning that his new friend really was an alien. So, if this is not what you really look like," he asked, "what do you really look like?" "I'll show you," said Zeke.

Zeke took a deep breath and raised his arms above his head. His body started to vibrate, then glow with a faintly yellow gleam. His skin and features softened into wavy lines, and then he began to grow taller and taller. Harris looked up in amazement as Zeke completely changed shape.
