(Lilar aka "White haired alien, portrayed by Valery Kovtun)

Theo's POV

I don't really what's been happening, the past however long has been such a blur. The last thing I can remember clearly was being looked at by those giant creatures staring my down with their demonic red eyes. I was shaking so much I didn't notice whatever was being released into the tube at first. I could feel it doing something to me, but not in the way any other medication from earth ever has.

It wasn't a shot or a liquid of any kind, it was more like a light, but not quite. The tube didn't get any brighter, but it felt like how it feels when you sit in the sun on a breezy day, warm, but not hot. It was almost more comforting than like a sedative.

I felt my body relaxing, I gradually slumped to the back side of the tube, I don't know what that stuff was, but I no longer felt the need to cower away from these aliens. I still knew I was scared of them, but at the same time, my body had somehow come to the realization that there was not point fighting this, that I can't fight these aliens even if I wasn't drugged our of my mind.

In my looped up state, the two aliens seemed to relax a bit, but only to tense up again when whatever we were on started to shake and alarms started to blare.

Through blurry eyes I saw two to panicked aliens running about and, I'm not totally sure I saw this right, but three green aliens come into the room. These aliens weren't as bulky as the others, but the were still pretty tall and sizable, and they seemed to have no problem taking down the other two aliens with ease. As my vision began to fade, I noticed them getting closer and closer to me, and I was honestly glad I fell asleep before I could see what they were going to do to me.

Awakening, I was no longer in the tube, but a small room that was dimly lit. I was on a small bed on one side of the room, feeling incredible drowsy but not terrible. Though, that was before my recollection of the past days events emerged from my memories.

I shot out of the bed, wobbling a little when I stood, but collected myself quickly. I assess myself, grateful that I was still in my own clothes and that my body didn't seem to have been "probed" in anyway, but I was still on edge.

A quick glance around the room revealed a small nook in the far corner of the room which appeared to be a bathroom of sorts, but other than that and the bed, there didn't seem to be anything else, not even a door.

I try to keep myself from panicking, but the room feels so small, and the thought that I could literally be anywhere in the world, in the universe, is terrifying.

I jump when I hear a loud sound to my right, behind what I thought was a plain wall, but peeled itself away, turning into a door, that was just large enough to accommodate the new alien. I quickly back myself into the wall opposite of it, but when I finally got a good look at it, I was very confused.

He looked human.

Well, the most human of any creature I've encountered so far. It was a smaller looking, and looked like a guy as far as I could tell. He was tall compared to me, but probable only around six foot, which made him much less intimidating. The only thing that made it obvious he wasn't human was his long pure white hair and his pale, almost glowing blue eyes. If there was any way to describe him, it would be elfish. But even with his peculiar features, he was by far the least terrifying creatures I've come across.

I quickly come to the conclusion that if I have a chance of pleading with any of these aliens, odds are the one I look the most like might feel more sympathy for me and take me home. I approach the center of the room, taking cautious steps closer.
