A sparrow sits perfectly still on a tree, looking through a window. Inside was a man screaming and making wild motions with his spastic arms. The bird kept starring. Suddenly, the man fell and the bird flew off.

The sparrow made a long journey, climbing higher and higher in the sky. Soon it reached an altitude that no bird on earth would dare climb to. Was this an ordinary bird? Was this even a bird at all? Only one person knew the answer. There was just one problem. No one would ever believe him, but that all was about to change.

As another day began at the clinic everyone began their own morning routine.

Sergeant Flohr oozed out of bed after another restless night, deprived of sleep. He scratched his head and went to his closet. He pushed aside the clothes in front to reveal his old uniform. For no particular reason, he decided to wear it today.

Mr. Templeton got out of bed and went to the window of his office. Something wasn't right. While eating breakfast, he looked over Dan's file again, then Adam's. "I wonder." He said aloud.

Andrew Wipf got out of his small, but comfortable, bed. His room was in the basement of the building. His morning routine was nothing out of the ordinary today for him. He got up, ate, and got his daily upgrades from iBrain (Apple's edition of neural implant).

Adam did not get up because he did not sleep. He just stood there, staring out the window. This morning, there were three sparrows n the tree outside of his window, all were staring at him. "I'm on to you." He said before he walked away, grabbed his sack (which he always had with him),and headed out the door.

The sparrow flew to an alien looking craft. A small door opened and it glided through. It flew through several hallways and tunnels until it reached the control room. An elite grabbed the bird, pulled it down, and plugged o cord into its side. The bird's eyes glowed blue as all of the information it had received was downloaded and observed by the alien crew.

After the download was complete, an elite dressed in gold armor got up. "It is time." He said "The area down there is perfect for an outpost, and a building has already been built there." He turned to an elite in red armor. "Take your troops and clean the building of human life. Leave no man standing."
