(Before time began, there was the Cube.
We know not where it comes from,
only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life.
That is how our race was born.
For a time, we lived in harmony but like all great power.
Some wanted it for good, others for evil.
And so began the war.
A war that ravaged our planet
until it was consumed by death
and the Cube was lost.
To the far reaches of space.
We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home.
Searching every star, every world.
And just when all hope seemed lost.
Message of a new discovery drew us
to an unknown planet called Earth.
But we were already too late.)

I can't wait to get a little taste of home; he smiles.
A plate of mama's alligators touffe" he licks his lips.
Bobby "You've been talking
about barbecued 'gators and crickets.
For the last two weeks.
I'm never going to your mama's house, Fig. I promise" he looked disgusted.
Fig "But Bobby, Bobby, 'gators are known.
To have the most succulent meat".
Bobby "I understand."
Fig starts talking in Spanish.
Will "English, please. English.
I mean, how many times have we. We don't speak Spanish.
I told you that".
Fig "Why you got to ruin it for me, man"?
Fig "That's my heritage."
Will "Go with the Spanish. Whatever".

"Colonel Sharp, we have an unidentified inbound infiltrator, 10 miles out".
Sharp "Unidentified aircraft, you are in restricted US military airspace.
Squawk ident and proceed east
out of the area".

Not squawking. "Unidentified aircraft, we will escort you
to US SOCCENT airbase".

A friend of mine was on that chopper".
