Inside The Eye Of Stone

Chapter 2~First Invasion

"It's a WHAT!?" The general yelled "It. Is. A. Unidentified Flying Object." Daniella responded. "I KNOW WHAT A UFO IS" He said. "Well you didn't act like it... Shouldn't we tell the media?" "Absolutely not! If they find out the world will go to hell in a few hours" The general said looking at Daniella as if she had said something idiotic "fine. But I'm keeping the photo. This is my momento that I did this. That I found this" Daniella spoke confidently but she knew what she was going to do later. She was going to tell everyone. She wasn't going to let innocent people be killed just because someone wanted to keep a secret. "I'm taking off work early" she said. "And why is that. You may. But why are you leaving?" The general asked curiously. "To be with my family before all this stuff happens. Good day." Daniella took one last look at the photo before pushing it in her pocket and leaving the facility driving to the nearest media source.

     Mount Rushmore, South Dakota
"Wow... This was so worth it the view is amazing" Zach said as he surveyed the mountain and the view below and above. "I told you! And you almost died... So dramatic." She said before laughing. "We could've driven but noooooooo. Let's walk she said! Only 6 miles she said! I could've died!" Zach said in a whisper. He was so fascinated by what he saw though. Seeing Mount Rushmore had always been a dream of his. And he realized that's why he decided to go with Madison. He wouldn't admit it though. Admitting to Madison would be admitting defeat. He couldn't believe how many people were here. He wasn't the best when it came to talking to people let alone being around them especially so many. "I'm going to get closer" He said before walking away breaking into a run to the fence. "You do that! I'll take pictures!" Madison said enthusiastically before walking around to take pictures. Zach ran to get a better view running faster before accidentally running into a nearby viewer. "Oh my! I'm so sorry!"  He said "Oh it's okay! I'm Sam by the way" "Nice to meet you Sam! I'm Zach." He held out his hand before shaking Sam's. "Isn't the view just astounding! This is my first time here. I'm probably overreacting." "No you aren't" Sam responded kindly "We take a yearly trip here but the view is always amazing! Don't you agree?" "It is. It really is. It's amazing how someone could make this" Zach spoke in awe of the view before blushing softly. "Well. I should probably get back to my friend. Maybe I'll see you again sometime" Zach said before running off to Madison to see the pictures she took.
