(10 mins later)

Don't worry mom, (Naoki) .. we wont be poor forever, when I grow up ill make enough money so we all can live a happy life I told her smiling.

My dad (Natsuo) and older brothers are already out hunting , I was often told I wasn't old enough to handle a gun or crossbow and to go hunting and had to stay home with mom and my younger sister (Kaiko), I think they think that I'm still a baby at 14, which I didn't like one bit and one day I will have to prove myself to mom, dad and my older brothers, I thought with a shrug.

Kaido was the oldest of my brothers and often lead the hunting squad, dad adores him as he is a quick learner, strong built and very intuitive, Eiji on the other hand excels in tracking and tactics, dad was just a good shot, they would go to the woods everyday to catch dinner and just enough to make a couple "rings" if they could have them sold at the town market in "Hill Rock" which was a small town not far from the city of "Berg".

Back home, I had finished helping mom in the kitchen, My mind was on hunting the whole time and I remembered that dad kept his spare crossbow in the basement, I couldn't go hunting but I had experience in shooting, My brother's and dad made sure of it, so I made my mind up, I'm going out! ... but I'm gonna need to get outside with the hunting gear without attracting any suspicion from my mom.

The plan was set, and to make it easier for me Kaiko was sleeping, so I had one less person to worry about getting out of the house, and like a miracle someone outside was calling my name !? Aiko! Aiko!

I ran to the door to see my best friend from two houses down .. it was "Marco", He usually stops by ever so often ... and this was my chance it was perfect.

Marco's mission was simple, he would distract mom while I got the gear from the basement,

so I gathered all I needed and crumpled them in a old towel I saw hanging from a hook in the ceiling, and after a few tries I manage to get the basement window open and threw the gear out, ... after all , we barely ever opened it. We live in a old but sturdy house with a attic and basement, we haven't got enough money to repaint it, so it has a dull white shade from worn out paint, creaky windows and noisy roof if it gets too windy.

Mom! I'm going out to chill with Marco, "OK" she said, she didn't suspect a thing ... Aiko ! your a genius! said Marco who was already in on the idea.

We got the gear from below the basement window and took off into the woods behind the house and in no time I could clearly see fresh tracks from my dad and brother's boots.

I had the only crossbow while Marco carried the backpack and other stuff , he was bigger than I am and was like another brother with him around.

About 30 minutes in, and we still were no better than when we started, we didn't catch anything and we didn't see dad or my brother ... atleast not yet and we were kinda feeling the pressure of a hot evening in the woods, so we stopped for some water and new ideas.

Hey! you hear that ?! Aiko listen!....I had no idea what was going on, what is it Marco ?

Listen !? he urged, and at that same moment I could hear a rustling whistle high above our heads, we both looked up to see to a black jet looking figure, it was on fire and flying very low almost touching the top of the trees, it looked nothing like the air jets I see in the city and it drew our suspicion immediately!

Lets go! Aiko yelled Marco, ... my heart was pumping and darkness was falling quickly in the dark woods ,we could see smoke trails above the trees that we ran behind up and down the slopes, I could hear a crash off in the distance that sparked our curiosity even more, I had to see what was that flying machine and if anyone survived we could maybe help them out if we got there in time.

We eventually came to a stop on a hill top overlooking a small portion of empty low lying land where we could see fire and smoke coming from a small crater left by the crashing object not far away, it looked like a 10 minute run and Marco thinks we could make it in one go, all or nothing.

It took us 8 minutes to reach close to the crash site, close enough to smell burning rubber and plastic, I could hear small pops and see fire shooting in the air for about 3 seconds then disappearing and reappearing, it was a dangerous scene already, and we haven't been within 10 feet of the wreckage, I felt a tug on my arm and spun halfway to see Marco grinning and saying "lets go check it out"!

I dropped my crossbow and gear and advised Marco to do the same while we slowly crept up to the crash site to what looked like a big house sized aircraft half smashed to pieces, we could see no movement from anything but flames now creating shadows as night falls.

We had to get back, I was in so much trouble but I had to see what was inside or if anyone was inside so I we kept crawling, found the best angle away from the heat and flames to examine what we could of this unidentified air jet, but just as we were about to enter we heard what sounding like .. "DAD"! , we quickly circled around the to the other side of the crashed UFO and stood real close to the shadows as we possibly could, I just hoped no one saw our gear, it would be a dead give away.

I could hear dad's voice way above my brothers , he told them to stay away and that they should use the cellphone to call for help. I wanted to go out there but I know I would be in so much trouble, "we should leave" I whispered to Marco , he nodded in agreement, but before we could leave , we were stopped by the sounds of Helijets in the distance, the type owned by our military, they were faster, built for stealth and had a stronger sounding engine, I could hear that it was more than one, shit was getting serious, Marco had fear written all over his face, and at the same time I couldn't hear dad or my brothers anymore.

We attempted to finally make our getaway when half the craft fell apart exposing what appears to be someone on the floor of the craft in full black snake scale-like suite but it wasn't dead!?

it got up stepped right past us and what happened next I couldn't explain, it had a human silhouette and so it made much sense it was someone inside it, it was clearly injured but still mobile, it looked at us and as it saw the lights from the now close Helijets it touched its other hand in a weird sequence then it literally vanished right in front our eyes.

And the scene was now under heavy lighting from Heli's we had another other option but to run, but while we ran we could hear heavy commotion, "Grab them "! NO ONE LEAVES THE AREA! , my heart sank, I thought we were caught, I saw Marco who was a way ahead of me, obviously I would be caught first, I tried to look around for visibility of our assailants but we weren't being pursued!?? Then why did someone yell "Get Them"??, and then it hit me! . "WE HAD TO GET BACK MARCO"! I yelled, he stopped .... "We have to go Aiko"!! if we get caught we don't even know what they will think or what they would do, I'm sure its ok, and just as we were ready to run again we heard a (POP!,POP! POP!) those were " GUNSHOTS!!!, I turned to run back up the hill and Marco grabbed my hand and yanked me behind him, all the time I was yelling " I NEED TO GET BACK " LET GO MARCO!!! , I tried to pull away but Marco was the older stronger one I had no choice in the matter, We were running blindly into the dark forest of trees and bush and my thoughts were focused on what could possibly be happening, everything I saw, everything I heard, and what was that thing that came out of the battered craft!?, Did we end up finding something we shouldn't have?
