Space Is Our Doom

Camp

We were apparently, according to the "survivors", we were at least a few miles away. We had to stop a few times for water, only twice have we seen anything. The first one was a big lizard thing. The second was a large fish that jumped out of the water. The fish had eight fins and the lizard had seven heads.
The "survivors" always looked around in caution. I was assuming they didn't want to be attacked by a weird spider thing, AKA spider mutant.
We were at least a mile away from the mountain when I saw a spider mutant. I yelled,"There is one over there!"
All the "survivors" looked but they didn't look scared they looked happy. I was now wondering what they were looking for... then I saw it. It was a crocodile but it was the size of ten schools. The "survivors" looked at it with a scared, worried look. They picked up their guns thar they dropped and fired at the beast. The crocodile walked towards us so we all sprinted except the "survivors". I got to the path first, then Dad, Mom with Sally in her arms and... where is Tom. Tom was back with the "survivors", he was helping us.
Tom picked up a rock then threw it at the crocodile's eye. I could hear a growl right before the crocodile closed its mouth around Tom.
I screamed then I tried to run back but Dad held me back," Where do you think you're going?" Dad asked.
"TO SAVE TOM!!" I screamed.
"You mean me," I looked around to see no Tom.
"What, who said that?"
"I didn't hear anything, did you Margret?"
"No," my mom said.
I looked around in confusion. I swear I heard Tom, or did I. We walked to camp waiting for the heroes to come back. I started calling them heroes after I witnessed them fight off the crocodile.
I explored the camp, village thing and saw two rocket ships. One was two times larger than the other. I was wondering what they were going to do with them. Also where did they get the materials from.
"What are you doing new one," I turned around to see a woman.
"Nothing," I said.
"Those rockets were here before me, I have always wondered where they came from," the woman said.
"When did you get here?"
"Thirty years ago, I was the only survivor left. I ran to this mountain seeking shelter and found these people. They taught me a lot of languages just in  case we got people that spokr different languages."
"Well have you ever wondered what the inside of the spaceship looked like?"
"No we aren't allowed to touch them, any way my name is crazy woman. Just kidding that is what everyone calls me but my real name is Eliza."
"I'm Fernando."
"Nice to meet you Fernando we could be best friends. Even though you are like fourteen and I'm fifty. I'be been sleeping in a age modifier which affects how you age. Right now I am still twenty. I wake up every ten years and wait for the arrivals."
"I'm fifteen."
"That is good to know, kinda."
I walked away,I lied to her I'm only twelve. How did she get fooled by that. I don't look fifteen, do I should go ask Tom if I... I sat down and cried,"Tom is gone forever, gone he is gone!"
"Me, I'm not gone I am just trapped in the alligator. It is a robot, all of the creatures are robots. When you turn twenty-two get me out of the robot. We will get the survivors and fly away in a spaceship. I won't be able to answer any of your questions when you see me. You have to figure... them... out... yourself..."
I looked around and thought about what this Tom said, he kinda sounded older.
