An Alien Encounter

I got back inside as quick as I could. Safety!

All I wanted to do was pick some mushrooms. I knew where I could find some that were so delicious! Rinse them off, slice them, and they went perfectly with the salad I had planned for dinner.

But then they showed up. My God, I’d never seen anything so hideous! They looked like us (two legs, two arms, a head), but they were definitely alien!

Those deformed head, so small. And with hair all over them! Their eyes were small, and even more shocking was they fact that all three of them had different coloured eyes!

They started screaming at me. I don’t know what they were saying, but it sounded hostile. I was so scared! I ran, as fast as my legs could carry my.

I got back to my ship and left. That’s the last time I visit the third planet in this system! It’s not safe!
