                                      Our group thats left is about  10 of us.Philip, Li, Santiago,Lucas,Hailey,Tanner,Mark,Kristina, and  Alyssa, then lastly me. All of us  sit in the forest talking about what happened. "So after the ship started spiraling out of control, Santiago teleported us out." Li says grinning."We were all really happy until we realized we were four  hundred feet  in the air."  Santiago laughs. 

       "So then Alyssa here  basically creates an ice slide   that drops us down into a lake."Lucas says. Phillip   is standing  at the edge of our campsite pacing back and forth.  "What's wrong with you?" Kristina asks him. "That thing on the ship." Phillip says then pauses."It was a hunter." He  continues. "So  probably some guard thing."  Li says before patting me on the back."Sol here killed it."

 I shake my head then say "Li hunter's are like thier ninja's. That one was probably weak from adjusting to our climate and all the oxegyn."

Li nods and then says "I'm not following."

Alyssa sighs then says "That was basically thier first soldier and they have a hundred more hunter's way stronger than him." 

"Hunter's?" Hailey asks. 

"Assasain's basically." I explain. "I overheard some guards talking about them one time." 

                       "Wow, hold up you can speak alien?" Hailey asks. "It's basically just understanding what they mean."Phillip says. Alyssa nods  and finishes " It's a lot like  human communication  with body language and stuff." That was basically the perfect way to describe it I thought.  "You children need to be alot more careful." says a voice from across the clearing. I look over to where it came from and see  a tall man who is about 6'1 with a goatee and  black wrist gauntlet's. Everyone tenses drawing assorted weapon's. The man chuckles and  walks straight into our campsite.  Phillip launches a fireball straight at his head. It misses his head by mere centimeters. 

                    "I'm not here to hurt you." He says.  For some reason he looks familiar.  He looks alot like my  dad....he's my uncle I remember.  " Your my uncle." I say  pointing at him. "I might be... how would you tell that I'm not a shapeshifter?" he asks. Hailey has already read his mind  because seconds later she says"Your not."  My uncle smiles and says "You all might survive yet."  Mark and Daniel enter the clearing second's later.  "I thought you were dead." Tanner says to his brother Mark. Daniel grins and says "Your uncle saved us and four others."  A girl  who's about an inch shorter than me walks into the clearing. 

                           She has long  black hair and tan skin and has light brown eyes.  Like the rest of us she's wearing the white and black armor the alien's  had fit us in.  Three exact copies of her walk up. "I'm Trinity." the black haired clone's say in unison.   Tom walks in after them  wearing  dark grey armor that's covered in spikes. "Nice armor." Kristina says  looking him over. "Okay now that you're all here I can call the trucks to get you out of here." My uncle says.  "Trucks?" Alyssa asks from where she stands to my right.  I want to hold her hand or touch her but it would only make things awkward so I  crack my knuckles nervously. "Yea I have  four   vans  parked on the road." My uncle says snapping me out of my thoughts.

                       After we make it to the vans everybody is exhausted from the half an hour walk. I sit in a black van that looks like a surveillance van from the outside. Alyssa sits next to me in the back row.  There is three passenger rows  with three seats in the first row and  two in the second. My row has  three seats and I sit  in between Alyssa and Santiago. The row before me has Hailey and Trinity both asleep. In the first passenger row Ralph and Tom sit there talking about pizza. We had been in the van for two hours  now and I was getting kinda drowsy. "I still can't believe we're back on earth." Santiago   says looking out the window. "Yea, it's surreal." I say yawning. My uncle turns back from where he  sits in the passenger seat and asks Tom a question. The driver  is a solemn bald guy in his mid fortie's I notice that he never talks just drives. 

                           Alyssa is resting peacefully beside me. Santiago closes his eyes and minutes later he's out cold. I fight the sleep for five minutes before giving in. Like always the nightmare's come in vivid detail. I stand atop a mountain over looking a large pristine city  in the middle of the valley. The sun is dipping over the hill bathing the city in a golden light. I flash forward int the city. The vehicles are like nothing I have ever  seen. They are perfect no other word to describe them. They are  made of pure gold. There are millions of people flooding the streets. It sounds like a parade because I hear   a loud drumbeat in the distance.  There are soldier's dressed in full gold floating through the air. A giant floating ship passes by me  with a large group of  warrior's around it. Then the ground shakes.

                   A building collapses the drumbeat not faltering. The warrior's fly upwards  catching pieces of the building as it falls. A piece of rubble starts falling toward's me and I will myself into the air dodging it. Then the whole scene  shift's and I'm on another  building top in a deserted  city.  An alien dressed in full black armor stands on the other side of  the roof. I raise  my fist's in a guard stance. "Let's do this." I say running at it. It  lets me hit it right in the jaw. I should've heard a crack but there is no bones that break.  It laughs at me growing to the size of a skyscraper. I'm in it's palm. "You are too weak to face me you always were." It bellows  before crushing me like an ant.
