Aliens “Can I go yet, Mom?”
“No. You have to wait until 6:30 because Dad is still cleaning the rocket.” I sighed and sat back down. I couldn’t wait to go to Earth again. I’d already put my human disguise on. It was quite uncomfortable because I had to cover up my horns and spikes, and the hair on this thing kept getting in my face. I don’t know how humans can survive with their hair. Last time I went to earth, I forgot my voice changer and I couldn’t talk for the rest of the trip. I need a voice changer because my voice is deep and very robotic, which is not the normal voice for a human, especially a female human. I double checked that my voice changer was on, and checked the time. 6:25. Only 5 more minutes until I can feel the fresh breeze of Earth. After the longest 5 minutes of my life, my mom yelled from the other room, “Alright, time to go!” I stepped into the rocket ship, sitting down at one of the few seats that were lined up perfectly. The rocket lurched up and a few minutes later we arrived at Earth, as our rocket is so advanced. I looked around and saw the Earth I remembered. Well, not exactly. They looked much more advanced now. I can’t wait to come back next century and see what it’ll be like on Earth. |
The Cat Takeover
It happened. The cats took over. They’re wearing suits and they can speak English now.
My brother and I are hiding now, they can’t see us.
It all started when I accidentally let my cat out. He ran and didn’t look back, and later I saw hundreds of cats on my street, him leading them.
The rest is a blur, but all that matters is right now the cats can’t be stopped. They’ve overthrown the government and now an orange cat with fake hair is the president.
“Go stop the humans!” he declared. All of the cats stampeded past us.
Luckily they were so focused on running they didn’t see us. We stayed hiding for an hour before we started to go somewhere.
There was only one way we could avoid the cats that were following the president’s orders, doing everything they could to find a human. That was the stage the president cat did his speech.
We stayed quiet as we went towards the stage, realizing that the president was still there. We tried to hide behind the stage curtains.
It reminded me of playing hide-and-seek with my family, I was always the best hider. My little brother would yell “Katie!” when he couldn’t find me. I would always cough after a few minutes so he could win.
I’m not coughing on this game, though.
“Ew! Why does it smell like humans in here?” The president yelled.
His guards started looking around cautiously. We had nowhere to go, so we had to stay behind the curtains.
Then my dumb brother fell over. The guards saw the curtain fall and rushed to pull up the curtains, finding us there, terrified.
That’s how it all started. We and the rest of humanity are now stuck in an underground prison the cats built. Everybody has been trying to escape for 10 years and nobody has succeeded. I’m going to slip this piece of paper in a guard’s pocket so when he goes up to the surface it’ll drop on the ground and hopefully one of the remaining humans will find it and read it. If you’re the one that’s reading this, send help.
