Outer Space, 3:30 p.m.

His breathing quickened as he saw the elite of ships behind him, their lights flashing and sirens blaring. The escape must not have been as secret as he thought it would be. As the ships moved in on him, he looked down and noticed a button beside his throttle that said 'Hyper Space'. A smile appeared on his face as he turned on a screen and started to punch in coordinates. Beads of sweat slowly ran down his face, showing his concentration and anxiety.

I think breaking out
I'm gonna leave you now
Theres nothing for me here
It's all the same

And even though I know
That everything might go
Go downhill from here
I'm not afraid

"This had better work." He muttered as he noticed that the ships were not far behind him now. He was practically cornered. Asteroids were dead ahead, and behind him was the elite of guards. Looking back and forth frantically, he finally decided to press the button.

He bit his lower lip as he smashed the button, the screen on the console flashing red. Taking a deep breath, he wiped the sweat off of his brow and pushed the throttle forward, plunging him into hyper space. The ship tumbed and rolled as it hurtled through the darkness.

Way away away from here I'll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and I believe
How it feels to be alone and I believe anything

You can't stop me now
You can't hold me down
You can't keep me here
I'm on my way

"I hope I live through his..." Trailing off he tried to brace himself for any impact that could happen at any second. The glass that was his windshield was starting to crack, and one of the wings was starting to come lose. A deep gut feeling told him that he was going to be in for a bumpy ride...one he might not live through. As he was going through space, he saw a planet ahead of him, which helped him release a sigh of relief. It was smaller than his planet, but any place is better than where he once was.

I'm waiting this for now
And I'm not burning out
No matter what you say
I'm not afraid

Way away away from here I'll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and I believe
How it feels to be alone and I believe anything

As the ship neared the small bluish green planet, it started to rumble more. He shook his head and looked back...nothing was there, except for the round whitish ball that he guessed was a moon. In turning back around he was jolted forward and in the process hit his head on the console of the ship, knocking him out cold. As he laid there motionless, the ship underneath was put to fire, as it was entering the planets' atmosphere.

The vehicle shot through the air as it went through and made its way towards America. It was smoking slightly, but nothing that he couldn't fix...if he woke up. It finally started to get closer, but the ship picked up speed...and crashed right into a forest of trees...right in the middle of a park.

I ignore the voice inside of me
I ignore the noise inside of me
Every window pain and shattering
Cutting off my words before I speak
This is how it feels to not believe

Way away away from here I'll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and I believe
How it feels to be alone and I believe anything....

Chakei could subconsciously hear people talking, but could not understand what they were saying. None of it made sense. He could feel them touching him, poking him...and even tapping on his space ship. Trying frantically to arouse himself to get up, he could make out one voice, which was not like his own language. It was very new to him, and so were these other noises that he heard.

I believe anything...

"I'll take him with me, and he can stay there with us until he is better. The poor boy..." It sounded like an older womans voice, though he didn't know what humans were. Other voices were talking all at once and he could not make out what they were saying to eachother.

"Boy...I'm not a boy...I'm an...alien." He argued in his head before he completely blacked out.

The woman carried him into her house and laid him gently on the couch, covering him up with a blanket and putting a pillow under his head. She sighed as she went into the kitchen to tend to the dishes she was cleaning before she ran out to see the commotion.

"I wonder where his parents are...and why that ship-like thing was there..." Thinking out loud she didn't realise that someone was right behind her.

"Who's parents? And...and what ship like thing?" A small voice yawned. The woman turned around and saw her young daughter in her nightgown, yawning and rubbing her eyes to adjust to the fluorescent light coming from over the stove.

"Oh, Kaida! You should be in bed!" The mother exclaimed as she shook her large finger at her small daughter. The girl huffed and stomped her foot on the cold tile floor.

"But mom! I heard a crash outside..and..and..." As she was talking she heard movement from the livingroom, which sparked her juvenile curiosity. She peered around the corner and saw a boy laying on the couch, mostly covered in black and had bruises on him. She gasped.

"Mom! What happened!? Who is that!?" Her voice rose as she ran over the 'boy' and looked at him. She looked him over carefully, a look of worry flashing across her face.

"Is..is he going to be okay momma?" She spoke softly as she played with the boys hair. The woman sighed and smiled.

"I think he will be, dear. We need to let him rest so he can start feeling better."

"But mom...he's bruised..."

"I know he is, but he needs sleep." She played with her daughters hair for several minutes while she observed the older boy. She had not seen him before...

Her mom then picked her up and took her upstairs and into her bedroom where Kaida closed the blinds and turned on her nightlight, as she turned it off when she heard the crash. Her mom switched the light off and walked to her daughters bed as she slipped off her soft bunny slippers.

"I hope he'll be okay..." Kaida said quietly as she jumped onto her bed and pulled the covers over her small body, her mom kissing her forehead before walking out of the room.

Meanwhile, downstairs, Chakei was stirring. He knew not to get up though, because he would startle the woman. Somehow he knew these life forms were different. They were kind and had a heart...unlike him and his race. Yet, they also showed other emotions when need be, which was something he could probably never do. How he hated to have the emotion of anger...but he couldn't change it...at least not yet.

Ryu: Okay that's it for the second chapter! The other ones will be longer, but I don't have much time right now. So...I hope you like it, and please review!!

Takaishi: I would greatly appreciate it...it helps to encourage me to write more for my story...and later...stories! TTFN!
