Chapter 2-The Trouble With Aliens
After hours of being shown around by Ben, TK went back to their room. His thoughts of why he'd been sent here were fading and now a new thought occupied his mind. Jaq, a girl TK had met earlier, had called this place the dumping ground. She said if he liked his new home. Up until then, TK never thought of this as a home. Now he wasn't sure. Ben was eating dinner in the mess hall. He turned to his watch, which read 7:09. Somehow, he drifted off to sleep. His dreams, his only family were the people who lived at the dumping ground.
"WAKE UP!!" TK woke up, annoyed that Ben's shout had disturbed his sleep. "Yeah, what!" TK shouted back. "Well in 15 minutes, the people are coming round to adopt." Ben said, quieter. "Okay,"TK got out of bed and got dressed fairly quickly. They left the room and entered the living room, where everyone was standing up in a straight line and whispering. When they joined the line, the blonde lady walked in and immediatly everyone was silent. Following her, were 2 weird looking people. One with short blach hair wearing a knitted shirt, a man. The other, a woman, wearing a long dress with shoulder length red/brown hair.
When they looked at TK, they smiled and said "we'll take this one." Behind them, was a girl with long brown hair. The blonde lady sighed and said "get your things ready, you're leaving in 5 minutes." TK left the room,and just pulled his suitcase back out to the living room. (He never unpacked.) "Come on then," the 16/17 yr old girl said. "I'm Kimberly, and theres something you should know about Brian and Sophie." He gave her a confused look. "Brian and Sophie?" he asked curiouly. "Oh, they're our foster parents. I'm your sister." By this time they were outside by a blue BMW. Kimberly got into the drivers seat, while Brian and Sophie got in the back. TK got in passengers seat. Kimberly gave a serious look. Brian and Sophie began to speak "we're aliens!"
