After the bright flash Daisy was filled with amazement! She said to herself: "Where have they gone?"

Back on Pinkerello, the Pinkerellians were thinking of a plan to get both Daisies. Pazaz said, "We can only have one Daisy, let's send a ship to Scumball's spacecraft".

The Pinkerellians sent a message to Daisy. The message was: "Get to the spaceport and bring the Powermeter."

They got to the Pinkerellian ship. In it there was a big BOMB! She got the bomb and threw it in Scumball's spaceship. They had about 20 seconds to get away before it blew up!

Their ship wouldn't start because their Powermeter was running out of Pinkerello power. The Pinkerellians were terrified! In the last few seconds it went!

They looked back, and saw Scumball's ship blowing up. Enormous bits of metal were flying everywhere even, Scumball and Scruff! They were blown over to Pinkerello and the Pinkerellians spotted them.

The Pinkerellians had a cage - the roof was open and there was a tunnel, which led to a deep, dark dungeon. Scumball and Scruff landed in the cage and they were stuck in the dungeon forever because there was no way out! For the first two days, the Pinkerellians fed them well but they soon forgot, and after a week Scumball and Scruff started to starve and in less than two weeks they became very skinny.

A few days later it was the final of the Rose Cup. The Cup is all about bringing machines together. They have to come in and show the judges what they can do and the most interesting one will win. Six different kinds of aliens were there. They were the JoJonuts, Jjnutters, Pinkerellians, Paperaliens, Mooneraliens and the Chinkeraliens.

The judges said, "Only three to go through".

The machines were Daisy for the Pinkerellians, Washing Machine for the JoJonuts, Soap for the Jjnutters, Origami for the Paperaliens, Sponge for the Mooneraliens and Robot Dog for the Chinkeraliens - which they stole from a cartoon on 20th Century Earth! There was tension all around because they all wanted to win the Rose Cup.

The aliens which got knocked out were the Jjnutters, JoJonuts and the Mooneraliens.

In third place were the Chinkeraliens, in second place, the Paperaliens with their Origami Robot which was magical and made powerful spells to produce different paper folding models. They had traded powerful Origami instructions for the robot.

In first place with Daisy's transporter, were the Pinkerellians. The Pinkerellians thanked Daisy ever so much because she had won the Rose Cup for them. The Pinkerallians was so pleased that they gave Daisy the Rose Cup for a souvenir.

The Pinkerellians went back to Pinkerello. They checked on Scumball and Scuff, they had started to rot away so the Pinkerellians were very glad.

They took Daisy back to Calthorpe Grange and she didn't have to do any more jobs because they had got so worried about her that they thought that if she had to do any more jobs she might go away again.

SO JUST WATCH OUT WHEN YOU TAKE OUT THE RUBBISH,
THERE MIGHT BE A PINKERELLIAN IN YOUR DUSTBIN!!!!
