Hansel + Gretel: The Predator Martian (Part 3)

Darling newlyweds of Mardi Gras consciousness stumble upon an erected candy-cottage in Coutourie Forest hiding a lurking sinister Martian requiring some (onside) wit(s).

Predator sci-fi horror adaptation, a blend with Hansel and Gretel (Grimms' Fairy Tales) allusion. Happy '26, all (thanks for reading),

Amlan and Ezzy felt like they were on the brink of a miracle escape perfecting in their cage in a Coutourie-Forest frozen-chocolate made cottage they were lured into after their Mardi-Gras festivities in New Orleans (Louisiana) in the American Homeland (ok). Amlan had joked they'd become 'siblings-like' faeries in those Earth-realm woods despite the fact that his UV-light telescope compass had faded in power, making them wander around in the dark somewhat desperate and more instinct-driven. When they stumbled upon the candy-cottage in those woods in the dark night, they were (simply) lured into the death-trap of temptation erected by the eerie hunter Predator-Martian who made the trap to make an Earth-realm spy-malice pseudo-lab for things of lasers, razors, and anti-social know for (personal/private) onside things.

AMLAN: I just have to use this Jack-of-clubs card to have the hunter-alien think.

EZZY: He's napping now...and I doubt this misadventure has us opportunistic!

AMLAN: I told you we've become siblings-like adventurers in these woods, wife.

EZZY: Hubby, even if you think I'm your sis, right now, we need a miracle!

AMLAN: This frozen-chocolate cottage in the Coutourie needs our wit and wits.

EZZY: What will you do, with your Jack-of-clubs 'magic' card now, hubby?

AMLAN: Let me think (Selfie-like).

What did the Predator want? He had explained in somber-tone that he'd been spying on human-realm from the Red Planet (Mars) and hailed from a faraway galaxy and set-up this New Orleans (Louisiana) death-cottage for his social/Earthling dominion trap for instinct-laboratory experiment gratifications of the mind (damn). the Predator-Martian explained in ominous-tone that he did for-deed intend to decapitate the 'siblings-like' newlyweds New Orleans Mardi-Gras revelers of the American Homeland (Amlan/Ezzy) with his Earth-domain hunter laser-device weapon (for doubt).

AMLAN: Here we are in the Coutourie, in your instinct-candy cottage on Earth!

PREDATOR: Yes.

AMLAN: Take my Jack-of-clubs card, Mister Martian...for fortune-intentionality.

PREDATOR: Intentionality?

AMLAN: Yes, yes, yes...it's a clear-sign of agenda of Earthling forests materialism.

PREDATOR: Materialism?

AMLAN: Keep the magic-symbolism card, let me Ezz/I free...for 'chance' journal.

PREDATOR: Journal?
AMLAN: Martian, this Jack-of-clubs card is 'school' passport (Facebook-like).

PREDATOR: If I let you free...will you keep secret my keep of 'chance' laser?

AMLAN: That's a super-deal (for Coutourie Forest knowledge).

PREDATOR: Fine, I'll release you, but you keep this (Mardi-Gras) 'onside' secret.

AMLAN: We shall, Mister Martian...for Earth-realm kaleidoscope (farewell).

PREDATOR: Aaarrrggghh!
