Chillterratan by Mac Park

It was a cold, stormy night. Kai Masters was in his science lab. BC3, his dog-bot battle buddy was with him.
    Kai used the science lab to do tests and make new things. Things that could help him battle better as a Border Captain.

    Kai looked at his jars and test tubes. They were bubbling away over the small fire burners. Green and blue liquid dripped through tubes into more jars and test tubes.
    â€˜I made the Battle-All Tool in this science lab, BC,’ said Kai. ‘The BAT makes sure our gadgets aren’t bad for the lands. Now we can use any gadget in any land we like. And now, I’m going to make something else!’
    â€˜What?’ asked BC.
    â€˜A drink that can make battle buddies grow bigger,’ answered Kai with a big smile. ‘The mega-mutants grew when they changed in our last battle. It got me thinking. Maybe I could make something that would let you do that.’
    BC tilted his head to the side. ‘That would be excellent,’ BC said. ‘I hope it works. But will I go back to normal size?’
    â€˜Yes,’ said Kai as he wiped his hand across his forehead. ‘It’s getting hot. I’ll turn the fan above the burners on.’
    â€˜I’m very itchy,’ said BC scratching at his fake fur.
    Kai had turned BC’s fur coat on when they were out walking earlier. It made BC look like a real dog.
    â€˜I forgot you still had your fur coat on,’ said Kai.
    Kai hit the button to turn BC’s fur coat off. Bits of BC’s fur began to move inside his metal body.
    Kai laughed. Then he said, ‘One day I will make all your fur go in at once. You look so funny right now!’

    â€˜That feels better,’ said BC once all his fur had gone. ‘This storm is terrible. So much rain and thunder.’
    â€˜At least the hail has stopped,’ said Kai. ‘They were big balls of ice.’

    â€˜It’s your orbix,’ said BC.
    Kai took his orb from his pocket. ‘Yes,’ he said. ‘It’s a BMC alert.’
    Kai turned off the fire burners. He put some tubes and jars in the freezer. Then he said, ‘Come on, BC. We’re needed in the Captain’s control room.’

Kai and BC stood in the lift. The lift travelled up and down inside the lighthouse. It also went underground where many of Kai’s Border Captain rooms were hidden. ‘Underground level 3,’ Kai said loudly.
    The lift began to move.
    When the lift reached the control room its doors opened. Kai and BC stepped into the room.
    â€˜I need to start the computers with my new Captain Card,’ Kai said. He reached into his pocket for his card.

    Kai pushed the card into the slot. A beast loaded onto the screen.
    â€˜I hope this isn’t a mutant beast again,’ said BC.
    â€˜Couldn’t be,’ said Kai. ‘The BMC said the Outland gates were down for only a few seconds. Not enough time for more mutants to get out.’
    When Kai saw the whole beast he knew he was wrong. ‘That thing’s a mix of three beasts I think.’ Then he saw the words Chillterratan Mutant. ‘At least it isn’t a mega-mutant, BC. It’s in the ice land.’
    â€˜We haven’t battled this beast before,’ said BC.
    â€˜No,’ said Kai. He looked up the beast on his BMC captain’s watch. ‘It has less rock beast in it but that will change if it becomes a mega-mutant.’

    â€˜Another beast is loading on screen two,’ said BC.
    â€˜Not two beasts to battle again!’ said Kai.
    Three heads moved onto the screen.
    â€˜I don’t need to see any more, BC,’ Kai said. ‘I’d know those three heads anywhere. It’s the mutant Terraserpix that we battled in the rock land.’
    The beast finished loading. Then BC said, ‘And it’s in Isolus, too. Double trouble.’
    â€˜Yes, we need to build a team and go to the ice land,’ said Kai. ‘Before these two mutants
