JOSEPHS POV
Marco laughed. Well, I knew he would laugh. Still kinda hurt my feelings, though.
Then he looked up and stopped laughing.
"Whoa," he said. And that pretty much summed it up.
A giant THING, that looked like a big pod was flying at us. It was actually kinda cute. Until you saw the tail.
The tail. It looked like a scorpion tail (actually, I used to have scorpions, until one escaped and mom found it.), but the end was in a super-sharp point. I mean, SCARY sharp point.
"That thing is a weapon," Marco said. I REALLY wanted to say something back, to get revenge for him laughing at me, but I was so in awe I really didn't have the time.
The giant thing landed. I was scared. Right now, all I really wanted to do was go home, jump under the covers, and grab Mr. Cuddles, but I had to stay. HAD to. No option.
It landed. I was so frickin' scared…
Tobias stepped out, hands forward. "We aren't armed," he called in a loud, clear, talking-to-aliens voice.
(I know,) something said. Now, at this point I was pretty freaked. Now I was full out screaming for Mommy, under the covers scared. Matt prodded me.
"You hear that, little bro?" he said. I nodded.
"So… is it just me, or is this WEIRD?" Marco said. Rachel looked at him as if he was a giant booger.
"Nooo, really Marco? A giant spaceship from another planet isn't weird?" She said sarcastically.
Then the door opened. The spaceship door, I mean. It slowly opened, like a moon, almost, first a crecent, then a half, then a gibbous, then a full.
Out stepped a ve-e-ery strange animal. Person? Do you call aliens people? I really don't know. Weird.
It looked like a centaur. Like those ones in Harry Potter, you know, except with no mouth, and a big, long scorpion tail. And little eye-horns. Full out weird.
"Ummm… hi?" I squeaked.
(Hello,) he said. The he staggered. I noticed a big, long burn line across his side.
"Matt!" I yelled. He looked at me strangely. "He's… he's hurt. But I think we can bandage it up. Give me your shirt," I said, hand stretched out. He began taking it off.
(No,) the alien said. He was talking in your head… in my head, at least. Weird. (I am too badly hurt. You cannot help. I will die.)
"No!" Rachel said. I felt like I had known this person for so long, and then he moved, or something. I couldn't have him die. I couldn't have ANYONE die. Death is… death is bad.
(It will happen,) he said gently. (But I must warn you of a great danger.)
Marco raised his eyebrows. "Great danger? What, a giant bomb is coming?"
(No. The Yeerks are coming,) he said.
"Yarks? Okay then…"
(No. Yeerks. They are also aliens. But they are very different,) he said.
"How different?" I asked scared.
(They have come to destroy you,)
Oh. THAT kind of different!
Urgh. I HATE having to go through the construction site again, I JUST got done w/ IJHAT for this part. : ( Don't worry, I'll get this done. Eventually. Probably grudginly. Slowly. But surely. PLease review! THanks to Anily-Khthonia-Windstorm () for yet another screw-up of calling Matt Jake. Will I ever NOT do that? No one knows... well, no one knows whether I'm sane either. Maybe I'll get a beta for this... hmmm.
