I was sat on the swing leaning my head against the chain, my feet barely touching the floor. India was rambling about Dennis...again, and I was bored as hell. I loved the girl to pieces but she really knew how to talk. Apparently he'd told her what he was up to before he met up with us, which was mugging someone. It was a bad move telling India and I wondered if he was drugged up when he told her. After what happened to her she begged him to stop with the attacks on random people, and he said he would. But mugging still counts as attacking apparently.
"...I just can't believe he did this yah know?!" She exclaimed from her spot on the spinning wheel. I nodded and sighed.
"I guess. But you can't just expect him to give it all up Ind', it's the only thing he knows how to do" I replied shrugging. She sighed.
"I know and it's part of the reason we went out with them. But I know how it felt when those boys attacked me, and that's how every person they attack feels. It just makes me feel sorry for someone I don't even know, and I hate it" she admitted shaking her head and staring at the floor.
"I know Ind' but..." I paused and my jaw dropped as I stared at the sky behind her.
"What?" she asked nervously. She turned to see what I was looking at and her eyes also widened "What the fuck is that?" she gasped. Hurdling towards us was some kind of meteor, it was on fire and a bright blue colour.
"I have no idea. But I think we should move" I replied. She nodded and we started to speed-walk to the exit. Unfortunately for us the meteor was moving faster than we though, and it hit the ground right behind us. The impact caused the ground beneath us to shake and we both fell forward. India screamed and I covered my head with my arms.
I rolled over onto my back and leaned up on my elbows. The meteor had split in half and a few pieces had flown further than us. They were lit up from being on fire and smoke was rising. I sat up with wide eyes and turned my head to India, her eyes were locked onto the meteor "You okay sis?" I asked panting. She shook her head.
"I don't think so" she replied in a quiet tone. I got to my feet and brushed down my jeans "What the fuck is going on?" she asked looking around. I sighed and shrugged.
"I have no idea. Meteor shower maybe?" I suggested helping her to her feet.
"Well they could have warned us on the new. That thing could've killed us" she exclaimed. I nodded in agreement and the meteor suddenly started to move.
"Holy shit" I exclaimed flinching back. India's eyes narrowed as though trying to see what it was.
"I think there's something inside" she said curiously. She started to walk towards the meteor and my eyes once again widened.
"Don't you dare" I whispered. She paused and turned to face me.
"It's just a rock Tex, what's the worst that could happen?" she asked rolling her eyes. I crossed my arms.
"A lot. You don't know what's on that thing, c'mon it's freaking me out" I begged shaking my head. She sighed and nodded.
"Fine. I really wanna poke it with a stick" she remarked walking back until she was next to me. I turned my head and gave her an annoyed look.
"You're insane, dude. C'mon I don't want to stick around here any longer" I replied looking around nervously. She nodded in understanding and we made our way back to the block.
We had only been walking for about five minutes, and we were pretty close to the block. But as we walked I suddenly heard loud shouting and cheering. I froze for a moment until I realised I recognized the voices, weather or not I was happy to hear them was something entirely different "Oh no" India groaned rolling her eyes. I nodded in agreement.
"Hmm, I wonder what they're up to now" I said crossing my arms. She sighed.
"Maybe we should let them know what happened in the park, so they don't go there" she suggested. I turned my head and raised my eyebrows.
"Really? If anything they'll want to go there because we told them not to. That's just how they roll" I pointed out. She nodded.
"You got a point, but still" she sighed giving me a pleading look. The voices got closer and I sighed in thought.
"Fine, if you wanna warn 'em not to go somewhere when you know they will anyway then go ahead" I replied. She rolled her eyes and I reluctantly waited patiently for the boys to turn the corner...which they soon did.
"Oi girls you should get 'ome! Aliens roaming the streets!" Biggz shouted as they rode towards us on their bikes and pizza scooters.
"Aliens? Really?" I asked in disbelief. They slowed the bikes to a stop right next to us.
"Yeah, what d'you fink that thing we had earlier was?" Pest asked with narrowed eyes. I shrugged.
"Somethin' you got from the fair. Anyway just though we'd let you know a meteor landed in the park" I replied tilting my head. They all nodded.
"Yeah we know, dere's an alien inside!" Biggz exclaimed excitedly. I rolled my eyes.
"Aliens don't exist" I groaned shaking my head.
"Yeah they do, we'll prove it! Come wiv us!" he replied. India sighed.
"No way! That thing almost hit us I am not going back" she exclaimed shrugging. I found it a little weird that she was protesting now, when 5 minutes ago she wanted to poke the thing with a stick.
"Yeah I don't want them comin' either" Pest admitted shaking his head. I inwardly rolled my eyes thinking it had something to do with me "I mean it took all of us to take down the first one. What if there's more than one? What do we do then?" he asked shrugging.
"Tell you what. Me and India will wait for you lot back at the block in the entrance, if you bring the 'alien' back then we'll believe you. How does that sound?" I suggested shrugging.
"Deal" Biggz said nodding. I smirked and bit my lip.
"Alright then, see yah lads" I waved. They nodded and carried on riding towards the park.
"You think they'll bring it back?" India asked. I shook my head.
"No way, and even if they do it's probably fake. I mean there's no such thing as aliens" I replied. She nodded in agreement and we carried on towards the block.
