Prologue
Arrival day: September 17, 2014
Lexi would never forget the day the Atrians arrived. She and her little brother, Grayson were out with their mom at the park playing catch with their dog. Everything was going fine, until the sirens started going off. At first no one understood what was going on, but then someone finally looked up and screamed.
Before anyone could do anything, a large metal ship came falling out of the sky and hit the ground with the loudest bang Lexi had ever heard. The earth shook from the impact and a swift dusty cloud blew past them.
After that everyone started scrambling away in a panic. Her mother quickly got her and her brother and took them in their car and rushed home since no one was being let out of the town. Her whole family was frightened. No one knew what was going to happen to them and the people on the news just kept on talking on how the ship that she saw was from another planet and that it was full of real live Aliens!
Everything was nuts for the next couple of hours after that, but thankfully at the end of the day the news people announced that they had everything under control and there wasn't anything to worry about for now.
Lexi thought that everything was over then, but then a man dressed in a military suit came knocking at their door the next day and gave they worst news her family could have imagined.
Her older brother who had been serving in the National Guard was dead.
AN: I know this is short, but I promise you the other chapters will be a lot longer.
Okay, this is going to be very AU at times. If any of you have been watching the show or any of the interviews, you would know that Taylor is supposed to be Drake's love interest. However, due to all the intents and purposes of this fic, that will not be a thing- AT ALL -in this story.
Also as far as Grayson's family is going, I'm just going to be a little vague on that until we have more details.
Anyways, thanks for reading I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. Thank you. :)
