Chapter One :
Ava watched from the glass window as her planet, surrounded with large space ships; fade from her view. It started off as a normal day. It was supposed to be a normal day, doing chores before heading to college with her brother. But no, fate made them come. They came and attacked Zander. Who are they? Space pirates.
Space pirates were a problem for every planet in their universe. They would land, kill the planets inhabitants, loot the place and blow up the planet to head to the next one. The Zanderians were no fools and always had escape plans for special cases like this. They created escape pods, small ships in every house. They filled the pods with food, clothes and momentos from their planet. But as far as Ava knew, she was the only one that used the escape pod.
Ava wiped the tears that poured from her brown eyes. Her short, tan colored hair clung to her sweaty yet very pale skin. Navy blue liquid bled from the cuts on her body, thanks to the struggle to get from the havoc to her family's escape pod. She looked at the pirates' ship passing her pod as if it was nothing but space junk.
She thanked the stars that she had her ability to help her escape alive. Her ability to create things she imagines to reality gave her a better chance to live and escape her would be murderous fate. Ava looked at the screen on the ship's control panel, wondering where her egg shaped pod was heading. Her planet was heading to a different planet in a different solar system, one that she only heard in her planet's folklore as a child. Earth.
Five months had passed since the pirates' attack and Ava was getting scared. Her food supply was shrinking rapidly, so she started to skip meals to save food. To keep her mind off the pains of hunger, Ava dug through the items stored on the ship. She found a lazer hunting knife, a large first aid kit, some clothing that belong to both her and her deceased brother. Along with her brother's clothing, she found his crystal charged gamma beam pistol.
Thoughts of suicide crawled into the young woman's mind. She didn't like living her life the way she was living it now, half starved and miles away from any civilized beings to help with her now growing depression. Ava was about to activate the lazer hunting knife when a loud beeping from the control system brought the alien to her senses.
Ava darted to the control room and nearly cried at what she saw on the screen. DESTINATION: EARTH, ESTIMATED ARRIVAL TIME: THREE DAYS. She didn't have to starve herself any longer, her new home planet was just a few days away. She was close to getting off this ship and out of the nightmare she's been living. Ava went to her food rations and began to eat once again.
In the world meeting room, all of the nation's representatives were sitting around a large table. A man with glasses and sandy blonde hair spoke up, catching the other nations' attention. " Alright dudes." The man said. " My main man, Tony; told me that there is a ship heading straight towards Earth. Dude said it'll be here in three days..."
" Bloody hell! Not this again!" A man with thick eyebrows and a British accent replied. " Didn't those Pictonians cause enough problems for us?"
" Oui, I agree with the black sheep of Europe on zhis one." A Frenchman added, brushing his fingers through his long, blonde locks. " What if zhese new ones cause more trouble?"
" Dudes, Tony said that there was only one dude on the ship. The thing has no weapons on it, we checked!" The man in glasses shouted, as if excited about the whole thing. " This time might be better! The whole thing with the Picts is old news! I bet this new dude won't give us problems, nothing the hero can't handle!"
" Veeeeeee~ I can-a make-a them pasta!" A man with a strange hair curl coming out of the left side of his head shouted happily. " Then-a I can-a show-a them how to make-a white flags!"
The room looked at the Italian, who was showing off his own white flag. Sighs could be heard all over. " Well America." The British man said. " Where in bloody hell is this thing going strike?"
America looked at the other countries and smiled nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. " Yeah... About that." He started. " Tony said it was going to land in my place, in a desert somewhere. So I was thinking you guys could come over with me to greet the new dude and maybe stay over until then..."
