I was under tight security and I would be, for a long time.
Now that he knew I was back in the "business" he was keeping an even closer eye on me.
Everyday he would drive me to school, escort me to the principal's office. When first period came around the secretary would escort me there. The teachers would do this for every class. When I went to lunch, I got escorted to the principal's office. When I went to the bathroom John McKimbly, the school hall monitor, escorted me.
It was torture. I didn't get five seconds alone.
I knew it had to stop, that's why I, very carefully, sent an email to Jimmy. Told him to meet me at the abandoned construction sight at 5:00, Saturday. I knew he would. I was his best customer.
That Saturday my dad started to freak out with security. Didn't want me escaping. He barred up my bedroom window, put a lock on the outside of my bedroom door. He locked me in there. All day. Gave me food two times a day. That's when I split.
I used the secret passageway. The one under my bed, where I keep my stash. It was pretty low but I was good at crawling.
The passageway led to my basement, there I could escape.
I bolted, got as far away from my house as possible.
It was a five minute bike ride from my house to the construction site and since I didn't have my bike I figured it would be about 15 minutes.
I glanced at my watch. It said 4:30. Supper time. By now my dad must've figured out I was gone.
I got to the construction site at 4:40. It wasn't a cold night but I was sitting on steel, very cold steel. I felt like my ass would freeze right to it.
I glanced at my watch. 5:10. Timmy was late.
CLANK!
I heard the sound of a bottle being kicked.
HA HA!
I heard the sound of laughter.
I looked through a hole. Five kids. All my age.
I noticed one of them. Tobias. He was I my English class.
The five of them were walking and talking, generally having a good ol' time.
That's when it happened. Tobias stopped and looked up. The rest stopped and looked up.
Then in a second there was this huge cloud of smoke. When it cleared there was a spaceship of something. An alien with four legs, a body of a man, no mouth, two eyes on stalks and a scorpion tail staggered out.
He stared at them for a while. They seemed to be having a conversation except that the alien wasn't talking.
After a while someone went in the ship. He came out with a blue box. They all touched it and ran.
A couple more spaceships landed more than crashed.
A huge centipede and a couple of other creatures that had razors coming out every which way. Another one of the weird four-legged aliens stepped.
A voice boomed in my head. It seemed to be coming from every direction at once. It filled my head.
I went down on my knees and covered my ears.
Then it stopped.
I looked over again. The second blue-legged creature was gone and another horrible creature was eating the first four-legged creature.
The razor bladed creatures started running. I don't know where they just started running.
"Hey over here!" I heard someone yell.
The creatures followed them.
I knew I had to go.
While those creatures were distracted I had to go.
I ran my fastest, this time back home. My heart beating profusely.
I was a block away from my house when I felt the explosion. Even from that distance I felt it. It was humongous.
I looked back. It didn't really seem like an explosion, just a whole bunch of fireworks going off.
I got to the door, he was probably waiting for me. There was no use avoiding it.
I opened it and walked in.
WAM!
I got a mouth full of belt strap.
