You were out in the forest at night, as you often did, to gaze at the stars. The tranquility of the woods was your sanctuary, a place to escape the chaos of everyday life.

Yet tonight felt different.

As you wandered deeper, you stumbled upon a familiar sight: your friends Krel and Aja from school.

You were about to call out to them, but something made you pause.

A sense of unease settled over you, compelling you to stay hidden.

From your concealed vantage point, you watched as Krel and Aja began to change.

Before your eyes, their forms shifted into their true-blue alien appearances.

Your mouth dropped open in shock and surprise.

Aliens? you thought, struggling to grasp what you were witnessing.

You had always sensed something was unusual about them, but this revelation was beyond anything you could have imagined.

Feeling a mix of fear and curiosity, you slowly rose and began to back away quietly, intent on putting distance between yourself and the unfolding scene.

But as you moved, a nearby twig snapped underfoot, breaking the silence.

Krel’s head snapped in your direction, his expression shifting from playful to serious. “What was that?”

Panic surged through you as you froze in place, heart racing, unsure of what to do next.
