Alien Attack and Other Stuff


It was a rainy night when “Space Invaders Landed in My Back Yard.” Dun, Dunnnnn. I was sitting on my couch like any preteen watching an old alien invaders movie. The man in the movie opened his door and CLAP, thunder. Then the phone rang: ddddrrringgg ddddrrringgg. I crawled over the couch and reached for the phone. The man on the other end said, “Can you hear me now?”
“Yes, perfectly,” I answered.
“Good.” He said in his annoyingly cheerful voice then hung up. CLAP, thunder again, but this time it wasn’t the phone, but the doorbell: DING. I got up, paused the movie and went over to open the door. DING, DING, DING, DING the person rang the doorbell impatiently. I opened the door an there stood a girl who seemed about two feet tall, and freakishly cute. Dun, Dunnnnn. It was a girl scout selling healthy cookies. I slammed the door in her face and went back to my movie. The Girl Scout rang the doorbell even more impatiently than before. Finally she got so annoying that I had to open the door. There stood the girl scout, cuter than ever smiling her evil smile, and through gritted teeth said angrily “Hey sir wanna buy a cookie?”
“No!” I screamed and was about to close the door when CLAP, a taller, bigger girl appeared behind the girl scout.
“I’ll handle this one sis’” she said “ So you don’t want to buy a cookie ay well you might want to plan on changing your mind.” It was the school bully: Ugg. No one really knew her real name.
“Yah, uhh, okay ill buy a box.” I forked over the money, hoping not to meet God too soon. After handing Ugg the money I ran inside and quickly closed the door behind me, not looking back.
CLAP, more thunder. I sat down to continue my movie. It was up to the part where the hero was going to save his girlfriend from the aliens when I heard ddddrrringgg, ddddrrringgg. At first I just let it ring. Ddddrrringgg, ddddrrringgg, then I decided to answer it.
“I know your grade point average,” said the man on the other side, it was my crazy Biology teacher. I hung up, rolling my eyes. I sat back on the couch neglecting to start the movie because I knew something would happen and sure enough: DING. It sounded like it was coming from the kitchen. I walked in pushing the swinging door in. Smoke was coming from the toaster. I walked over and inside was a Poptart™ , I took it out and suddenly felt a breeze. Standing right behind me was a gigantic alien breathing down my neck.
“ Give me Poptart™,” said the alien. “please.”
I handed him the Poptart™, he reached out his claw and gabbed it. He pulled and I pulled still in awe but wanting to keep the Poptart™. Finaly He got it, when he did he stamped off opening the door and holding it open for his last words, “ You mean!” he said, and slammed the door it swang back and slammed him in the face, and killed him. I ran over and picked up my Poptart™ and wiped off the alien slime. I ran to the couch and ate the Poptart™ while I finished my movie. I was lucky to escape with my life
