MERAK

PERIMETER PERSPIRED,SOME FICTION TO ENTERTAIN YOU.
THE NEWS RANG OUT,ALIEN OBJECT IN ORBIT,STAY TUNED.
PEOPLE FILTERED OUT TO THE STREET,LOOKING UP,MUMBLING TO ONE ANOTHER,THE NEWS A STUNNING AND EXCITING SENSATION.
WHAT IS GOING ON?
WITH THAT, THE SOUND OF AIR BEING SLICED,LIKE A JET WOULD DO,RAGED OVER US,AND A CRAFT SWOOPED INTO VIEW AT THE TOP OF MAIN STREET,ALL OBJECTS AND PEOPLE WERE DESTROYED OR UPHEAVED TO IGNITION, AS IT SLOWLY HOVERED DOWN THE STREET.
THIS LOOKS LIKE IT, I SAID TO MYSELF,AND BURROWED INTO A STORE ALCOVE.
THE CRAFT CLEARING A DESTRUCTIVE PATH AS IT CAME UP THE STREET JUST ABOVE BUILDING LEVEL.
I STARTED TO SHAKE,LIKE A RABBIT IN HEADLIGHTS I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
BUT I NEW DEATH WAS DROPPED ON US,AND IT WAS SLOWLY NEARING ME.
LIKE THE INDECISIVE RABBIT, I WENT OUT TO THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET,ACCEPTING MY FATE.
THE CRAFT JUST IN FRONT OF ME,IT STOPPED,LIKE IT WAS OBSERVING INSTEAD OF DESTROYING.
IT WENT INTO A LARGE PARKING LOT AND TOUCHED DOWN.
ANOMALIES IN THE AIR BEGAN SWIRLING AROUND ME ,THEN SOLIDIFYING INTO FOUR LARGE HOMINIDS.
THE ONE WITH THE MOST HAUGHTY LOOK WAS CIRCLING ME AND HIS THREE COMRADES,WITH A LOOK OF WONDER SHAKING HIS HEAD UP AND DOWN AS IF ANSWERING HIS OWN ASSUMPTIONS.
ONE OF THEM HELD UP A TYPE OF INSTRUMENT AND NODDED TO THE CIRCLING BIG SHOT,WITH THAT HE VOICED, MERAK ,AND BEAT HIS CHEST WITH HIS RIGHT FIST,THEN LIFTING A SLENDER FINGER FOR AN ENTITY HIS SIZE,HE POINTED AT ME,ALL THE WHILE THE ONE WITH THE INSTRUMENT HOLDING IT CLOSER AS IF TO RECORD THE SITUATION.
WELL I BEAT MY CHEST AND SAID I AM FRONZI,WITH THAT THE RECORDER HANDED MERAK THE INSTRUMENT,MERAK HELD IT UP AND BEGAN TO SPEAK ,THE INSTRUMENT WAS INSTANTLY TRANSLATING INTO ENGLISH AS HE SPOKE,THE VOICE COMING FROM THE INSTRUMENT HAD HIS SOUND AND STYLE INCLUDED IN THE TRANSLATION.
HE SAID,WE NEEDED YOU TO SAY A FEW WORDS TO CAPTURE YOUR ABILITY OF COMMUNICATION.
I NODDED,HE THEN ASKED WHY I WAS CONFRONTING HIS VESSEL?
I SAID I WASN'T,I JUST DID,HE THEN ASKED ,ARE YOU A FOOL?
I REPLIED ,I GUESS I AM,THEY ALL GRINNED AT EACH OTHER.
MERAK WENT INTO A RABBLE THAT WAS NOT TRANSLATED TO ME,BUT WAS DIRECTED TO HIS PARTNERS,THEY WERE ALL GRINNING AND AGREEING TO A COMMON THOUGHT.
THEY THEN TURNED AWAY AND DISSOLVED INTO THE TURBULENCE OF AIR.
THE CRAFT THEN BEGAN TO RISE,IT SWIRLED OVER ME BLOCKING THE SUN,IT THEN CONTINUED IT'S PATH OF DESTRUCTION LEAVING ME BEHIND.
MY FEELINGS WERE IN TURMOIL,NOT KNOWING HOW TO ACCEPT WHAT OCCURRED,BUT I WAS TO LIVE WAS ALL I KNEW.TATWOGF/DEC/14/08
