Tom Mason
Before the war I was an American History professor. I had my wife Rebecca and my three sons Hal, Matt and Ben. Every morning I would wake up, kiss Bec awake and she would have a shower while I went and got the newspaper. After reading Bec would finish and I would go in while she made breakfast. I would have a five minute shower scrubbing with this organic soap my mum makes me wear. I know, it sounds pathetic that a 43 year old still is bossed around by his Mum, but you haven't met my Mum. I would shave and put on fresh ironed clothes and go and wake the boys up. Hal was the hardest, he was a light sleeper but he pretended to be sleeping so you would leave him alone. A day ago I came up with blackmail to get him out, this time using his new phone that I had bought him because he always uses the home phone calling his girlfriend Rita. He grumbled but got up. I gently shook Matt awake which did the trick and with Ben I chucked his blankets on the floor so he climbed out. We usually had bacon and eggs and Hal and I had a coffee (double shot flat white). Bec and Ben drunk this herbal tea and Matt had a hot chocolate. After eating Matt would catch the bus to school and Hals best friend Mick would pick him up for school and Ben would catch his bus. I would kiss Bec goodbye and leave for work.
Oh sorry my therapy times up. Bye

Emma Green
Hi I'm Emma. I used to live in Southern America but I came over to Boston when my friend Lily got cancer because I needed a change of scene. My Mum is dead. My brother James is dead. My Dad is missing. I have no family but the second Mass. My gran (also dead but nothing alien involved) used to say that wherever life takes you there will always will be people there to help you through it. It may sound weird but I'm not entirely sad about the alien attack, I met people who are total keepers. I lived in an old farm house with my own horse Coco and a whole heap of animals. My Dad was an author and my Mum was a librarian in the local library. James wanted to be a soccer star when he was older and I wanted to be an photographer. I went to the local high school where I learnt absolutely nothing but the Boston one was great. Hal was supposed to be in it but I didn't see him around. I had a big group of friends and a couple of boyfriends (not at the same time). I took photos for the school newspaper in my old town and sometimes wrote articles. Outside school I liked to ride Coco, read on the bench in the orchard, go swimming in the lake (sometimes joined by the red cows), ride on Dads tractor and visit Lily and my other friends. Lily was the kindest person you could ever meet. She, before chemotherapy, had waist long auburn hair and sparkling brown eyes. The sad thing is that when she died her eyes didn't stop sparkling. She volunteered to help the nurses for free and went on picking up rubbish sprees around town. I didn't even cry. You probably would either. You see she was in massive pain, it felt like she had died. I read a couple of stories saying that heaven does exist and at the time I believed them. Lily was very funny and incidentally hates lily's, I don't know what it is about them she just hates them. Anyway I have to go meet with my friend Ben so see ya.

Ben Mason
Um I'm Ben. My Dad and two brothers are in the second mass. Pre-war I was a total geek. I loved school and Maths. I had a few friends unlike Hal who had heaps coz he played lacrosse which was surprisingly popular in Boston. I had a crush on this girl who I had no chance with because she was a cheerleader and I was, well me. I worked in a comic shop two days a week and I got free manga's so I was happy. I was harnessed for a while but Dad and a bunch of soldiers and my *cough* friend Emma rescued me. Hal, my brother, can be a total douche sometimes but when he's nice, he's nice. He is dating Karen and they both ride the motorbikes and scout. Hal has spiky jet black hair and has tanned skin, like my Dad. Matt and I take after our Mum, Rebecca. Matt is my eight year old brother. He has curly blonde hair and everyone thinks he is cute, don't get me wrong he can be, but sometimes he is the devil. My Dad's name is Tom Mason, he is second in command in the Second Massachusetts (next to Captain Dan Weaver). I have just came here but everyone seems nice, anyway it's better than being with the Skitters. Anne asked me to write what it was like with them, but the truth is I can't remember. I mean, I get bits and pieces. I remember getting my feeling back once when our leader died but it wasn't long enough for me to get outta there. My friend Emma Green was harnessed as well so I can relate to her and we get on well. All I can say is this war ain't over yet so keep on fighting.
