10 All Aboard

Ten all aboard. HARRIS LED ROXY OVER TO ZEKE'S backyard. He pointed the cosmic imager at the old shed and pressed the button he had seen Zeke press. Once again, the shed went through its shifting, glowing transformation, changing into a spaceship.

Watching wide-eyed, Roxy was stunned. She finally realized that Harris had been telling the truth about Zeke all along. "Why didn't you tell me?" Roxy asked.

Harris rolled his eyes. "I tried!" he said. "I tried to tell everyone, remember? But no one believed me. Zeke only told me himself after I got in trouble for trying to prove it, but he asked me to keep it a secret." Roxy nodded. "I appreciate what a good friend you've been to him, protecting him and keeping his secret from everyone."

"Come on," said Harris. "I'll show you something really cool!" Harris led Roxy onto the spaceship. "This is amazing!" she said, looking at all the high-tech equipment and watching the bot-drones buzz through the air. "I've never seen anything like it. I can't believe... Zeke and his parents are aliens!" Suddenly, they heard footsteps entering the ship.

"Oh, no!" whispered Harris. "We'll get caught! Quick, hide!" Harris and Roxy opened a storage cabinet and slipped inside, pulling the door closed behind them. From their hiding place, they heard voices. "Zeke, did you forget to change the ship back into its shed disguise when we finished loading?" Quar asked.

"I don't think so," Zeke said, confused. "But I might have hit the button on accident." my cosmic imager by accident." Zeke reached into his pocket to check the device. It's not here! to he thought. Where did I leave it? "Well, no matter," said Xad. "It is time to go home. Bot-drones, prepare the ship for takeoff."
