I crawled further across the room and started to play with my toys when I heard the window shatter. Startled, I started crying, and a man appeared through the window and stepped into the room. He quickly made his way across the room where I was. He gently put his hand over my mouth to stifle my cries. I started to become curious, so I stopped crying. my brother was still there, sleeping so heavily as to not even stir at my cries. The man picked my up and cradled me for a second before climbing back through the window, holding me in his arms. I couldn't see his face, a mask on his head was preventing me to do so. He walked across the white, clean streets, made of some that looked like marble. In the time he was walking, I noticed he was heading for an emerald green, oval shaped vessel. When we were close, he pulled something from his pocket, and pressed a button on the square shaped part of whatever it was. When he pressed the button, a door appeared that was previously hidden. As he walks through the doors, he is greeted by a woman, who I later know to be his wife. I learn that her name is  Faline. I also see a young girl sleeping, who appears to be about a year older than me. Her name is Ari. The man's name is Tipu. 

"Hello mel, were you successful." Faline greeted (look up mel in latin)

"Yes, the baby is right here," Tipu said as he showed Faline me, swaddled in blankets.

"Aw, she's so cute."

Faline took me and cradled me until I fell asleep. Little did I know, we were headed to Earth.
