Before, your signals were empty. No response from any life forms.
*You were an alien from a different planet, just a normal person trying to get by.
Your kind had been trying to contact other places for years now, desperate to know they aren't alone.
Slowly, the machinery developed, and after decades of radio silence, there was a response.
And another.
And another.
The other place was called 'Earth'. Conversations took weeks to finish, with the signals being weak as they reached Earth and back. Every single response was broadcasted, so you knew what was going on.
But with these delays between messages, one didnt arrive in time. Nobody knew what was about to happen.
The sound of unfamiliar language reached your ears. It was just a normal day on your planet, but this was unusual.
A group of people, it seemed. They looked nothing like you. Beige skin, humanly appearances.
One stood out, one with lavender hair and yellow eyes. He was Experimenting with different pieces of nature, plucking and shifting everything he could.
The message hadn't come. Nobody knew that a bunch of humans had come to visit your planet.
