Keep following Mandy

(originally authored by me)

As the car trudged along the dark road, Mandy constantly growled in frustration as her scanner kept short circuiting. Before landing, Mandy had launched a small robotic satellite which was designed to constantly monitor the planets surface, trace any unusual lifeforms and of coarse keep a lock on her and her ships position. The satellite had a constant data stream sent to the ship computer, which in turn sent data to Mandys personal scanner. However due to the Martians setting up a jamming field around Earth orbit, and other magical energy concentrated in this area, the scanner was practically useless. Meaning Mandy had to search for the elusive Tom the old fashion way.

Continuing on, Mandy eventually stopped her stolen car at the entrance of the nudist camp. Standing near the gate, small, naked and **** was Sara, head camp councilor and terrified out of her wits.

"Angie! Angie!" She screamed as the impostor got out of her car. "You've got...to...help..."

Sara stopped and felt her jaw drop. She had not expected Angie Summers, well known and respected police officer to suddenly appear naked, but this thought only crossed her mind for a second and was quickly overtaken by why she called Angie in the first place.

"Miss Stack is dead!" She shrieked, tears in her eyes. "All the campers are in the main building...but...I..."

Sara choked, the nude teen obviously at her wits end.

'Angie', having studied human behavior from the memories she took placed a hand on Sara's shoulder. "There, there." she said flatly.

Sara looked up at the emotionless face of Angie. What was wrong with her tonight?

"Where is the body?" Mandy asked sharply.

"N-near the lake." Sara choked.

"Go with the rest of your colony. I will investigate."

Turning away from Sara Mandy began to walk toward the lake before Sara stopped her again.

"Wait! Aren't you going to call this in?"

Mandy stopped looked back for a second, said "Yes." then headed toward the lake again.

Sara meanwhile, terrified, and naked simply dragged herself back to the group of nudists.

Mandy looked over the crushed, ragged corpse of Miss Stack. She recognized the work of a Mantis here. Scanning the beach she saw other footprints, long, cartoonish ones. Clown footprints. So that is what Tom is doing.

Scanning the footprints, Mandy deduced that the group of three had headed in the direction of a mixed gender scout camp for young men and women. If Tom wanted human girls, that would be the next best place to go, and she would be right behind him...
