-Unwanted Good-Bye's : An alternate ending to M. Night Shyamalan's Signs
Part One
There was nothing. Not a sign of an alien could be found. Not even a small scent of it. Judging by the looks of things, it looked like it was safe to go back into the house.
The Hess family exited the dark basement they had been staying in since the intrusion, and returned to the comfort of their home. The entire house was a mess. Items lay scattered throughout the floor. The wood they used to board up the windows and doors had been torn down. The aliens were probably frustrated about not getting into the basement, that they destroyed whatever they could.
Bo stayed close to her uncle and Graham took Morgan to the couch. Graham left the room to retrieve Morgan's medicine. Merril, who just took the t.v. out of the closet and was just beginning to set it up in the family room saw something that looked familiar. It was still here. Merril saw it's reflection on the television. It was more frightening in person than on t.v. It was dark, with ghastly black eyes and in it's arms it held his beloved nephew.
"Put him down!" Merril demanded.
The alien understood but did not obey. Instead it reached for a device on it's left wrist and activated it. Through the device came the alien's voice. The alien's voice was unclear and static. It was also accompanied by an alien accent.
"My people have gone back to our planet. But it is not over humans! We shall return. And we shall return more powerful than you could ever imagine. As you can see I hold in my arms a creature that is dear to you. I shall take him back to my planet to be studied."
"No!" came Graham's voice as he rushed to the family room. He had heard the alien explain himself from the other room. He also made sure to bring Merril's bat with him just in case they needed it. What he saw when he got there nearly gave him a heart attack. "Leave my family alone!"
"You..." the alien hissed and made a face that would be considered a smirk to most people. But he was of a different world. Who knows what that kind of face meant. The alien ran it's hands through the boy's face examining it's features. Then it looked back at Graham.
Graham recognized the alien when he saw it's left hand. Three of it's finger's were missing. Cut off by some sort of sharp object. He remembered it was him that sliced them off earlier.
"I shall have revenge for what you did... Human," It's voice was much clearer and louder and it stared Graham straight in the eye. "But I will not take all of you. Only one..." The alien looked around the room, looking at each member of the family and studied each and every one of them from a distance. "Which one of you will it be?" it asked.
"I will go," Merril announced.
"Are you cert-"
"No! I will go," Graham interrupted.
"What! No Graham you can't! What about your children?"
"Merril... I can't let you go."
"Yes you can. Graham let me go instead," Merril tried to persuade him.
"Merril you know I can't let you do that. A long time ago when my wife died I made a promise to myself. I promised that I wouldn't let anything happen to my children or my baby brother," Graham explained. "I will stay true to my word. I won't let you sacrifice yourself."
"Daddy I'm scared...," Bo whimpered.
"It's okay baby. Everything will be all right soon." Graham comforted her.
"You don't have to protect me anymore!" Merril argued.
"Merril you know that's a lie."
"Ever since we were little you were always there to protect me. Everytime one of the other kids picked on me you were always there to chase them away. Even when dad tried to hit me you would always come along and try to stop him." Merril shook his head. "You don't have to protect me anymore."
"It is my duty as your brother and as your friend to protect you. No matter what. No matter how old you are. I'm your big brother and my job is to protect my brother." Graham's face was blank and totally void of any emotion.
"Graham... No... Don't do this... Please." Merril on the other hand carried a sad face. His eyes were shiny and wet. A tear ran it's way down his cheek. This was a rare expression seen on Merril Hess.
