The time was now, Professor Reed Jorden has been planning this for an entire year. Just think, all the interesting results we could recieve. Oh science is so fantastic! Reed thought. He started enetering the space shuttle with his team, Johnny Raymond Stein, Ben Day and the lovely miss Sue Stein. "Really?." Ben asked Johnny as he walked in slow motion and hummed the well known song. "Relax big guy, I'm just having a bit of fun." They prepared for lift off, everything was ready, everything was perfect. NASA's speaker counted down.
"3"
"2"
"1"
"LIFT OFF!" Johnny screamed with exitement as he felt the rush of four rockets proppeling them into space.
"WHOOOHOOO!"
They did it. They were in space. It had taken then some time to get over their astonnishing new view and annoyance of listening to Johnny humming the Star wars tune. Reed and Sue were alone, looking at the Earth together. "Hey Reed..." "Umm, yes Susan?"
She smiled at him. Reed mentally slapped himself,"Sue! I'm supposed to call you Sue." "Like I was saying. When you think this is over, do you want to get something to eat?"
"Of course! Congratulations will be in order so will all have a massive dinner together."
She sighed,"You know, for being the smartest man alive, you can really be an idiot."
"Hey."
"Reed, I am askig you out on a date."
"Oh... well..I-"
Then the high pitch of the alarms pierced their ears.
"Ahh." Susan screamed.
Ben came rushing in. "Guys, we've got a serious problem." Prof. Jordan rushed to the ship's terminals, the others close behind. "Impossible." he shouted. "The cosmic rays can't be already here!" But they were and that wasn't there only surprise. For little did they know, a green spaceship was crashing it's way to Earth. It's course was intervened by a certian space shuttle.
Ben say it first, his eyes widened in terror. "RUN!" Everyone scrambled away from the massive projectile, it landed nearest Reed. "Holy Newtons!" The ship smashed through the shuttle's strong metal like it was nothing. The ship recieved it's own damage as well, the glass from the pilot's seat, revealing the contents within. "Oh my gosh." Blood. There was blood everywhere. The person causing all that blood, wasn't a person. He was of another species. The soon to be dead alien was wearing a strange green suit. He looked at Reed with relief and hope. "You..." He struggled to say. A million questions flew around in Jorden's mind. There are aliens? What happpened to him? What does he want with me?
The final question was answered quickly, but not understandably. The alien produced a glowing green ring from his hand, "The ring chose you. Please. Take it." "I, I dont understand." Without warning, the ring lached itself to Reed's finger. "Whaa!" "Reed! Is that you?" Susan sceamed from behind the wrechage.
"Yes It's me! Are all of you all alright?" "We're fine."
"Oh no..." Ben said softly. "What?" Reed screamed from the other side. "The rays are here!" The team screamed as the cosmic rays washed over them and their ship.
The ring was infected by Reed's will and the cosmic rays. A massive green bubble formed around the ship. And they vanished.
