Inside The Eye Of Stone

Spotted

It was a slow day in summer as the heat raged and the trees blew in the wind. Zach was once again becoming weary from the dead heat on the trail he had been walking in the deep woods of South Dakota. Taking a trip with his adventurous friend Madison had been one of the greatest mistakes he had ever made. He wasn't sure how much longer he would last before dying of heatstroke. "Help... Me... Dying. Can't breathe" he muttered as his lungs were being pushed to the limit. "Oh Zach you're so theatrical. But your jokes are so amazing. Catch up!" Madison yelled 50ft ahead of Zach almost in a jog. Zach took a deep breath before collapsing onto the trail reaching for his water bottle taking a deep swig of water as he panted ferociously begging for help. "Madison. Please... We should take a break." He spoke almost in a whisper. "Oh come on! Only half a mile until the top! You can make it!" "No. I can't. There's some benches right here just... Let's just take... A quick break." He spoke before sitting down putting his face in his hands and drinking another swallow of water. "Fine" Madison said before walking back to the bench. "You know. If you didn't sit on the couch all the time you'd be in much better shape. Try going to a gym once in a while" Madison uttered under her breath. "I heard that! Not all of us are as gifted as you Madison. And you know that!" He said defiantly. "Well I didn't get here by sitting on a couch did I!?" "No..." "That's what I thought" Zach slowly got up before starting to walk again dragging his feet.

"Object recorded on course to earth! I repeat! Quadrant 351 has activity!" Daniella yelled from her large office. Her job had been a joke made by the officers as they knew nothing would ever be recorded and she knew that. But she took the job specifically as a dream come true. "Quadrant 351 has activity!!! Will someone listen!" She yelled again furious no one would confirm her sighting. "What do you want!" The officer yelled from the room next to her. "I have a sighting on course to earth in quadrant 351!" Does anyone listen here! "You have a what!?" The officer kept a calm attitude looking mad as he walked in but secretly he hoped she wasn't lying. He wasn't dissapointed. "Holy mother of Mary! You weren't lying!" He said excitedly. "Did it sound like I was!?" She asked. "Capture the picture and take it to rendering stat!" The general said with the biggest smile on his face. "Yes sir!" Daniella said before taking the captured picture and running out of the door tripping over the edge of the door frame. "Try not. To ruin the picture. Thanks." He said before laughing hysterically. "I'll try." She stood up regaining her composure before walking into the rendering room and sliding the picture into the renderer. She picked the picture up from the other side and her jaw dropped slowly as the general walked in. "Well Daniella!? What do you see!?" She slowly looked up to make eye contact with the general before uttering... "I-it's a UFO..."
