Aliens: Species Evolved.
Prologue: Humanity.
They were just stories, who would want to believe something so amazingly beyond the realms of reality. We had lived upon the world for many a millennia, and within only a heartbeat of our worlds life, it is taken away.
We had seen great things in our time, the rise and fall of empires that would control the world. The paintings of a late artist hanging, well lit in the walls of a museum, to have many eyes look upon it with wonder. Life itself was a beautiful thing, the first image a child would see, and its first word, even the step that would be met with a soft thud when the child took its first steps of life. Yet life was not always perfect, even with the good, there was still far more that was bad, and that was uncontrollable.
Humanity was lost in only a few years, yet many thought that it was taken along time before then, with war, famine, murder and laws of man broken at such a drastic level. No one knew what humanity was anymore, it surely was not the love of a family member, the hand of God giving us everlasting love. The birth of a new born child would not bring peace to the world, nor would our species being placed upon the extinction list cause our worlds leaders to accept each others differences.
Millions of poor souls would be lost, taken away, and still, we fought for what was more important than human life, we fought for our bank accounts. Whoever had the money would have the chance of survival, especially as the years passed, and upon the forth year of the worlds supposedly greatest threat, even money was no longer a factor in the running of every day life. Because their was no longer anyone else on the planet who had any control or power. Wealth no longer an issue, especially when the claws sunk deeply into you, the jaws ripped through your flesh. Sadly, even as the new born tore through our bodies, we still did not realise were we went wrong, our species only cared about the individual, never the whole, and when the time came, nothing mattered.
It would be years until we would be able to return to our home planet, even if we had the chance to, the demons had taken over every corner of the world. They knew how to hide from the extermination squads and quickly as the last city fell became the dominant species of Earth, we had lost. So instead of fighting, we left, moved to the stars from which the demons had come. Moving to great arcs in space, as large as the largest city on Earth, we would live out our lives.
Until one day, the demons followed...
