2nd May XXXX


Just found out ground-breaking news! Trevor dyed his hair white! I found black roots coming out. How long has it been? Like 2 months on Earth now and I didn't even know that he dyed his hair. I asked him about the reason he dyed his hair and he told me that he just personally likes the colour white. Which, I mean, yea my question was kind of stupid. The more you know.

It's the weekend, the two boys decided to go for a walk around all the unexplored areas when out of nowhere... their watch began to vibrate.

"Sigh, again?" Gabe whined.

The two boys followed the GPS to the location. The street was packed. People from all walks of life are all jammed in one location. All traffic there was stopped completely. Gabe and Trevor decided to dress themselves in regular clothes to better blend into the crowd. They found themselves outside the gates of the White House. There were a group of people screaming their disagreements.

"Take me to your leader!" A voice hollered.

"Show us the President!"

The scene was becoming hectic. Reporters and helicopters start arriving. The police arrived a couple of minutes later. They tried their best to rally the crowd. Some guards that patrol the lush green lawn of the White House even had to intervene when they notice that people began climbing the gate. The crowd was becoming aggressive.

Orders were being shouted left, right and centre. "Leave the premises immediately or else...".

"We won't leave until we see the President!"

"I'm sorry sir, you are under arrest for violation of..."

'Thwack!' A fight breaks out! People were fleeing for their lives. It all happened so fast. Gabe and Trevor left the main scene to get a higher vantage point. Hiding from the authorities at the same time.

Taser sounds were going off. People were crying in agony. Reenforces arrived a moment later. More people were screaming for their lives. Out of nowhere, someone gave a battle cry so loud that car windshields broke and people's ears ringed right after. People were knocked to the ground. Even the armed forces.

A small gang of around fifteen people were the only people standing in the middle of it all.

"They're like us," Trevor mouthed.

Gabe scanned the small gang when he fixed his gaze on the guy in the centre. He looked familiar but Gabe couldn't remember. "I feel like, I know him but why can't I remember?"

"Hey, are you ok?" Trevor noticed that Gabe was beginning to twitch.

Gabe ignored him and clutched his head, curling his body up into a ball. He then screamed in agony. Trevor didn't know what to do.

"Gabe! You got to snap out of this!" He shook Gabe furiously.


And everything went black.

Gabe woke up in his room, neatly tucked in bed. His head was pounding. The world was still spinning around him. Gave groaned. "What happened."

"You passed out," Fred said nonchalantly sitting on the edge of his bed.

"What happened to you?" A concerned Trevor asked. "You were mumbling things. You vaguely mentioned that you recognized someone?"

Fred's eyes went wide. Trevor quickly rummaged for his make-shift phone that he made out of parts that he found when he first arrived on Earth. He scrolled to a picture of the event that he captured and handed his phone to Gabe.

"Do you see anyone you recognize?"

"This one," he pointed at a middle-aged man with a large scar across his face. Gabe touched the scar on his chin when he noticed. The man is fairly large and muscular. The man has dark-coloured hair, almost black and styled into a mullet mohawk. He has a short-boxed beard, one ear pierced and had purple-coloured eyes with specks of gold. (Yes, Trevor's phone camera is that sharp).

"Do you know who that man is?" Fred asked.

"I don't remember."

"You're looking at one of the most wanted criminals, Miles Buker."
