"Yes, but some are not stars at all. See that little *circle* of light? It is a planet called Earth."
"Really, mom? You mean there are other places out there just like here? So are there people there just like us?"
"Well, *songs* and ancient legends suggest that a semi-advanced species called humans inhabit Earth, causing destruction to all that they come in contact with. We've attempted to visit them many times, but it has become too dangerous..."
"So, humans are evil?"
"No. They just have inferior brains, I suppose."
"So do you really think they exist, Mom?"
"I always have. In fact, I bet there are humans looking up at us right now. But one day there may not be. If they continue on their destructive path, there may not be an Earth left at all."
"Well, maybe it's my *destiny* to help them! Maybe I could be the one to save their planet from utter destruction!"
"I hope so, son... for their sake."2008-04-03T23:06:29Zhttp://ficlets.com/feed/story/26666Comment on An Extraterrestrial View of Earth {Storykeeper's Birthday Challenge}<p>I love this!
