Alien Invasion
Benjamin had always known he was different, even in the kindergarten. Sure, red hair was very rare for a young boy living in east Germany. But that wasn't what made him so different, it was his family. His mother, Gendal Karbunkle had been famous around the country before Benjamin's birth. Since then, she had been practically cast out of the spotlight. Benjamin sighed and rubbed his red hair in thought, this class could have been far more interesting than it was. His teacher was raving about Stalin and communism, typical subject and repeated too many times for Benjamin's liking. He tapped his pencil against his notebook while listening with half ear about the soviet union. All the students were sitting still, like in some-sort of a army. Benjamin looked at his history book, full of dull writing, oh how he wished the day was over.
When he finally got home, he
quietly walked past his mother, who was sleeping. From drinking too
much no doubt, Benjamin muttered to himself and closed the door to
his room. It wasn't really furnished, just a desk, a bookshelf, a bed
and a tattered old carpet. His mother couldn't afford more. Benjamin
sat down on the floor and was just about to start doing his homework
when a brick came through the window.
" Hey freak! Come out
so that we can beat you" shouted someone from the outside.
Benjamin growled slightly and ignored the taunts. Then a rock flew,
it didn't hit him, but his reading lamp was history. Benjamin was
bemused for a moment, but then a white hot rage filled him. He didn't
think of much, he just ran outside and towards the three men that
were waiting outside his window.
That could have ended nastily, Benjamin could have been beaten to death and his mother raped. But that didn't happen, instead, a strange glow from the sky captured them.
Lord Oltterman watched with his head scientist, an insectoid creature known simply as Mange, as the four humans were transported to the ship. But as Oltterman looked at the four, one of them wasn't very human looking. Instead, it looked like some sort of a bastard child between human and Xenan. Oltterman was horrified, but Mange was curious about the youth. So the scientist ordered his assistants to bring the child to his laboratory.
Benjamin woke up, his head hurt and the floor seemed to
shake.
" Well well, so you woke up.." a high pitched,
scrathing voice said. Benjamin tried to stand up, but his tendecy to
get motion sickness kept him nailed to the floor, gasping. A man
walked next to him, no it wasn't a man. All men Benjamin had known
didn't have green scaly skin, antennae and...didn't make those
horrible screeching noises while moving their mouth. Benjamin stared
at the man, he wanted to scream, was this a dream. Yes, that was it,
it was just a silly lucid dream about space invasion.
" You
earthling probably don't know who am I, am I correct?" the alien
said. Benjamin staggered to speak, but only whimpers came out, the
alien grinned. Unfortunately, it had three rows of sharp teeth to
double with it's otherwise ugly appearance, Benjamin gave out a girly
scream. The monster only laughed more.
" Yes, you are scared
of me, just like any half-breed mutt should" the creature
snickered. Of course, all it's talking meant nothing to Benjamin,
mainly because the monster spoke english. Secondly, the teen was
still too shocked to do anything but stare at the monster. Luckily
for him, the monster decided to leave after few yells, leaving the
teen in total darkness of a unknown room.
