They walked over to a group of four circled around. Jasper said, "Everyone this is Dan, Dan these are my friends." Jasper smiled.
"H-hi," Dan started shyly. "Nice to meet you."
They began talking with each other to get to learn more about each other. Jasper told the group how they met in chemistry because their teacher made them sit next to each other, and how they had to go to his house to continue the work, leaving out some details on purpose. They continued talking and Jessica told Dan how she was lesbian and dating a girl who lives in Hoetown.
All of a sudden everyone who was standing in the hallways phone went off with a blaring noise.
The speakers simultaneously said, "WARNING THIS IS NOT A DRILL. AS OF TODAY OCTOBER 13 WE HAVE FOUND EXTRATERRESTRIAL CREATURES CURRENTLY INVADING THE WORLD. THEY ARE CURRENTLY STARTING THEIR CAMPAIGN IN ANTARTICA, PERFORMING TESTS ON THE HUMANS WHO ARE LIVING THERE. THEY SEEM TO PLAN TO ATTACK EVERYONE ON EARTH. THE LIFE SOURCES ARE A THREAT PLEASE BE SAFE AND GOOD LUCK." The entire hallway went into chaos. Jasper, Dan and his friends ran out of the building at the same time, moving as a group.
"WHAT THE FUCK DO WE DO?" Dan screamed.
"LOOK, MS.MOOR'S BUS!" Jasper replied. They ran over to the vehicle which was empty besides the lady sitting there. The five of them boarded and Jasper yelled for her to drive. She started the engine and sped away from the school, leaving all the kids clawing for the bus behind.
"Y'all what's going on?" Ms.Moor asked.
"An alien invasion." Michelle said.
"Did you not get a notification on your phone?" Eli questioned.
"No, I got me a flip phone still. Why aren't we helping the other kids?"
"Ms.Moor," Jasper said. "We don't have time. We don't have the space, and we won't have the resources. We need as light of a load as we can possibly manage, and we can't threaten that with bringing extra kids."
"What about your families?"
"We might not see them again, unless if they could be of any help to us."
"But I can't sacrifice your families!" Ms.Moor said. "Let's make a deal, we make a pit stop at everyone's house. That person enters their house and gathers anyone who is inside, along with their necessary belongings along with food. Everyone else stays inside the bus and we make sure no one else boards. We will only stop at houses. We will not stop anywhere else. Deal?"
In unison the teens voices rang out, "Deal." None of them wanted to lose their parents, knowing that they had already left for work, but they were more than happy to not have their pests of siblings around. Ms.Moor followed the kids instructions to get to their houses. They grabbed their belongings, crying as they exited their front doors for the last time. Dan was the only one who had a parent with him, his dad.
They boarded the bus and he said, "Everyone this is my dad. He works the Night Shift at the hospital." Hearing this everyone felt a piece of them relieved that someone with medical training was on the bus with them. Inside the bus the kids had piled their food and items in the center of the bus, knowing that it could easily be stolen if put near the front or back. They arrived at Ms.Moor's house and she was greeted by her frantic husband.
"Honey what the hell is going on? Did you see the news!"
"Grab all your things John, and the food. Then get on the bus." He listened to her commands, evacuating the house within 5 minutes.
"Who are all these people?" He asked his wife.
"They're the reason I'm here. They filled me in on all the details. Over there in that seat is Dan on the left side and Jasper on the right." They waive. "In that seat is Michelle, the other seat is Eli, Finn is in the one in front of him, and Jessica is the other girl. Oh and this man is Dan's dad, Jake. He works at the hospital so he will be able to help us if any medical problems were to happen. Now sit down, we need to go to the hardware store to get some paint."
"Paint?"
"To make the bus green. We can't be riding around in a bright ass yellow bus. Now sit." He sits in the seat behind her and they drive off.
