My Friend's Little Short Story

Hello! Ok, so this is a little short story that my friend has written. Hope you enjoy! It is called 'Home'.

~|~

In a world when up was down, I landed; speechless. The ground was green and the liquids were trickling down the lands again. It has all changed, not one thing I remember was the same. I saw all kinds of creatures. I saw polar bears, Tasmanian tigers, lions. All animals bathing in the suns light in harmony. Each animal walking past each other, pouncing in play. The plants were thriving, roses were here once again, poppies. The smell of nature surrounded me as I imaged the world as we left. With a breath I fell to the ground as lion cubs ran towards me to play with my hat.

The cubs grabbed it off me and ripped it apart when it all turned grey. Nothing moved, but staring at me. They walked with dead eyes and a quickening pace. That's when I ran as fast as I could. The leopards fled next to me and took me to the ground. I started gasping for air as the animals fell on top of me. I thought that it was all just a game, that the animals were just playing around. I was wrong, I was so wrong. The rest of the team came to rescue me from the terror I was facing. Once the animals ran I started to run to the ship thinking that I would be safe there but as the team and I ran away, the animals were at peace once more.
