It's been 3 days since the Trevor incident and we've been extra busy trying to find where Trevor disappeared to and to get the galaxy technologies working. So far, to no avail. But we're trying, and our galaxy transport technology is almost complete. Some test runs have been made and it seems to be going pretty well. One of the runs went pretty... bad... but it only resulted in a small injury. An injury that resulted in surgery... but still. It's fine, though, they're alright. But I am in the lab, and I'm about to test the latest version of the teleporter. It's got much more mass than I thought. It's like 1940's computer-sized.
Anyway, I step into the chamber, and in there it feels like my chest is pounding and pressurized. From both nervousness and the state of hydrogen in there. Me and my fellow Huians breathe hydrogen. Also, Hu is a planet, one that Huians, you probably guessed it, live on. It's estimated to be about the size of Neptune, from our calculations. And yes, Huians are aliens (at least you would see us as that). Anyway, I step in, and after about 5 minutes, I start to feel electric shocks, then, everything fades to white and black spots, then I appear at a planet I've never seen before. Tall trees, large fields of grass, and small bodies of water. I get out my communication device and ask where I am.
"Hello, Sir Rifar? Where did you send me?" That's his name by the way.
"I sent you to Earth, we last tracked Trevor from there. It's a rather small planet compared to ours, so you shouldn't have too much of a problem." He answers.
"Earth? The planet I've heard horrible rumors about?" I ask.
"Correct. We figured you could eliminate whatever threats there are at that planet on your search."
"Alright, I'll be on my way." I say back.
"Alright... where are these threats?" I say to myself. "Perhaps I should hop on my Hoverbike to look." By the way, I do have a hoverbike. If it can fly all around Hu in 5 minutes, I can travel around here.
Anyway, I start flying around and find giant, gray towering sculptures with windows. I fly down a little and find other beings (you humans) so I fly down and try to make as little of a scene as possible. I make myself look as human as possible and start walking around. Not much going on, just humans walking around. Some vehicles go by, I'm thinking those are the human versions of cars. I realize how low-tech they are and start to try and hide my gadgets better. I eventually make then invisible.
I walk into a building and ask if they've seen anything strange-looking thing fly by or whatnot.
"What strange thing?" The person replies.
"So, you haven't seen anything strange?" I answer.
"No, I haven't." The person says.
"Alright, I'll be on my way." I say back.
Strange, it didn't feel like I was talking to a human. I can sense whether something feels like a creature or something else. That did not feel human.
Well, let's carry on. I walk out of the building and activate my "invisible sensors" or whatever. They're sensors in my eye that scan the area and determine if any threats are around. Nothing picks up. So I stop the sensors and start going around again. I eventually find a parking lot and summon my bike there, but make it look like a human car. I get in it and drive away. I eventually reach a tunnel and teleport away to another location.
