Tranquility

When everyone heard of the attack on Qatar, there were some concerned people. But like paper, they just used it and got on with their lives. People like Sarah Lennox thought otherwise.

Then the meteors hit Tranquility. News about aliens came up. One viral video made it out, about a UFO crash landing by his friends outside, himself included. Besides a modified Search and Rescue Hummer H2, nothing was out the ordinary.

A family man with his wife found their grand pool destroyed. They found their young daughter standing by said pool as well. They were baffled by the story she told: "Mommy! Daddy! I saw a giant Tooth Fairy!"

An onlooker, many in fact, saw the one that hit the stadium.

A truck driver swore he saw some giant metal dude just standing there when he drove by. The trucker, Peter, told the story to his friend, Frank, who discarded it as a hallucination. His other friends did as well and soon believed them.

People in the suburbs were especially concerned when they saw a convoy of exotic looking vehicles. Even more so an hour later when a group of government vehicles patrolled the area, specifically at the Witwicky residence.

Not so long after that, many couldn't believe the sight they saw. A 32ft tall robot was running down the street from helicopters. When it "disappeared" the government guys hurriedly asked them which way it went. Fearing for their lives, many said it was last seen at the canals. Then they had their answer, the helicopters, like a switch, decided to check the canals for themselves. Citizens were in a panic and rushed to either their homes or some place out the city. Some even decided to leave the state. The government guys blocked a two mile radius in places leading to the canal, with roadblocks restricting access. When they got what they wanted, the dissipated like children with new toys.
