Chapter–1

[*—It was quiet in the night sky…*]

‘—In the middle of New Jersey at nighttime was a lake named Laguna. Right next to Laguna were three large green mountains. It was a large dark—blue, lake that stretched for three long miles. A cold breeze slowly began to blow and the water began to respond by rippling. A thin beam of bright green energy appeared in the clouds.
—It began to dance in circles in the clouds above. The wind grew more intense as the beam also grew in size... The waves in the water grew with intensity as well.
All at once the beam flickered and stopped! It altered its color into an emerald green and then turned into a fireball.
[‘In the middle of the lake was a man fishing all alone.’]

His radio was buzzing on and on as he was listening to his late night coast to coast show.
<’So, Dr. Madren, according to your book of Theories of Time and Space.’>
<‘An asymmetrical genus would exist in our same cross stitch of enter dimensional space?’>
<‘Would this theory irrevocably prove, the existence of existential nonterran life?’>

‘—The radio host asked the other man on the show…’ <‘Why yes!’> The other man replied… Suddenly there was a static buzzing a bit. ‘Aliens?’ ‘Aliens out here in New Jersey?’ ‘This is an outrage!’

—Said the man as he stood up and cast his reel with his red fishing pole. [‘He hummphed to himself.’]

—As the red bobber on his fishing line hit the water something caught the corner of his eye. The bright green nova light from the sky momentarily blinded him. Instantly he reached for his eyes and began to rub them. His pole fell into the water with a loud splash!
“Oh dam my freaking pole!” —Yelled the fisherman as he clamored for his pole. After retrieving his pole, reeling it in, a securing it he looked back to the sky. ‘What the heck?’ “—What is that?’ The old man questioned.
‘—What’s a helicopter doing this close to water?’ He emerged from thought as he stepped up to see from his brown small boat. ‘Why’s it,’ ‘…Thundering? No wait, this isn’t July…!’
‘Are those illegal fire crackers?’ The man questioned trying to make sense of the bright light. The light had then thundered and explosions broke out. They seemed to come from outer space…!

“A super nova?” The old man cackled in his voice seeing the light.
[‘That’s impossible…!] The old man smirked. ‘Those only come every couple of thousand years…

‘—Besides it wouldn’t happen this close I’d be dead!’ The man’s radio broke into jumbled static distorted and then a whirling piercing sound that made it hard to hear.

It seemed as if the light had exploded and the light was coming straight towards the lake! Straight towards him!
“Th—that’s it for me! No more night fishing for me…!” The man yelled turning the motor on his boat to full power. He revved up his engine and headed for the other side of the lake…

The stale smell of green algae filled the air as the man suddenly stopped his boat in mid water.

—He looked back at the location and saw something. With out warning the old man heard a sound. There was a bright light coming from behind the clouds…

There, a beam of solar—green energy, seen way up high in the sky, in the atmosphere was seen moving across outer—space like a green thick flare…!
‘It blasts through space like an emerald fireball.’ Along behind itself, a long thick beam of an emerald, green energy light. ‘Like a meteor or a comet or something.’

It came down through the darkness and the blue cloudy atmosphere.
[‘—…That night,’ ‘things got noisy—and intense.’]
‘…The light seemed to collide with something. There was loud ‘BOOM’ and down came the light. It swiftly passed through the clouds as a mechanical loud moaning sound was heard that was magnified high above the water…! There a sound like,
<“—CLICK—CLICK—CLASH!!!”>
Was heard in the sky over the mountain ranges! [‘—Form there, things began to happen…’]

‘There was a loud explosion of fire!’ Metal objects began falling all over the city. As these objects fell they broke apart into thousands of pieces. The pieces were scattered everywhere even the forest…

—One of the larger portions of debris didn’t disintegrate it just turned into a large fireball. It looked like it was headed straight for the forest. That’s when the explosion occurred which changed its trajectory and it fell into the wider section of the lake.
—Before it hit the water there was tall grass beneath it that was burnt up as it rolled under the lake. Making a loud splashing noise! Flames emerged madly. Energy shot out of it as it landed right into the center of the lake. Right in front of the middle mountain called Hindago. There the sound of the object hitting the water was heard.

<“—SPLAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSHHH!!!!!”> The object began to sink deeper and deeper into the water…
“—What the?” “What is that?!” The old man asked. The old man looked behind himself. The water was rocking even worse than when it was just the wind.

The old men turned his boat back to the area were whatever had crashed into the lake was at. As the old fisherman neared the location he could see a large gray glowing green rock.

The closer he got he could see the large gray glowing green rock upon a small brown, island of melted rock. He stopped his engine to get a closer look and then went on again. The old man turned on the engine and continued to zoom across the water.
At the center of the lake he again stopped his engine as his boat drifted to a stop. He looked again…
The scent of burning oil was in the air as smoke rose from his boat motor.

[‘—What the heck is that thing?!’]
The old man asked himself startled. He tried relentlessly to start the old motor. The motor just wouldn’t start. He opened it up to see what the problem was but couldn’t find any thing wrong.

—Determined to find out he took out a small red paddle and paddled his small boat with all his heart. As he paddled furiously he noticed a white cloud headed his way. It wasn’t deviating. It kept coming closer and closer.

His paddling slowed as the cloud grew closer. He got so scared he started paddling in the opposite direction...
—Faster and faster he paddled. Every so often he would look over his shoulder at the cloud. He wasn’t gaining any distance. It seemed the faster he paddled the faster the cloud drew nearer to him. He knew he couldn’t win but still he paddled.

Soon he began to hear honking and hissing and…? Flapping? ! He turned just in time to see an entire flock of white swans headed right at him! He instinctively ducked, and was rewarded with honks, hissing and of course feathers, lots of feathers.

His whole boat was white from the amount of feathers that were on it. The old man looked back to see where they came from. A flash of bright light from above automatically drew his attention to the sky.

Way up in the sky he saw a large purple cloud. It looked like some type of energy dancing all over it. KU—BAM!

—An explosion and another object came zooming down. This one came down louder than the last one… It crashed right into the vary top of Mt. Hindago. Another loud boom was heard as it crashed. Pieces were blown everywhere. Most of the pieces came down in the direction of the lake on the other side of Mt. Hindago.

[“—Meteorites…?”]

—Thought the old man stiffly shaking. “I can’t believe another one almost hit this lake!”

He yelled out all excited. He paddled the remaining few feet closing the distance between him and the island. <“…This is so exciting!”> He urged with his feet up in the air happily hopping on his boat.
<“—It hasn’t rained meteorites like—this, ever!”> The old man began to get up slowly to go placing one hand on the boat to give him added support. With the other hand he massaged his forehead as he staggered to the side of the boat.

His legs had fallen asleep.
<“—…Good lord.”> Thought the old man to him self. “—…Mercy.”
Listening to the static on his radio that rested next to his seat. He leaned over the edge of his boat to get a good look at whatever was below his boat.

[‘He notices something.’] There was an eerie teal glow that issued from the center of the object far below and then dissipated into the water surrounding it. Then a bright green light similar to a laser beam shoot straight out and began as if scanning the interior of the lake.
‘Bubbles began coming up as if something hot was boiling underneath his boat.’

—Below the man’s boat the water was rocking from all the commotion.
“—That’s odd.” The old man squawked to himself. “That’s extremely odd.” He thought out loud. He deduced that this definitely needed a closer look.

The old man set foot upon the island donut of mud and dirt. His black rubber soled fishing boots made a sloshing and squishing sound as he walked across the small island. For the first time he noticed a circular rock in the center of the island surrounded by water.

It wasn’t just a circular rock though. It looked like silver metal and, it was getting bigger. It had some type of green glowing ooze covering it. As the old man drew closer the rock in the middle began to rise. Before he knew it, he was looking up at it.

The water in the center was gone. Steam was emanating from all around where the island touched this thing. A weird glow seemed pulsate around it. The old man reached out to touch it.
Instantly he pulled his hands! “OUCH!!!” He yelled. He realized to his chagrin, it was hot! Immediately he checked his hands.

—His hands hurt and were red but no burns. The old man couldn’t figure out what this object was. It strangely resembled something like a pod or a rock with studs sticking out of it. As he turned his attention back to the object he noticed the teal glow was gone.

He recognized some type of gray metal that looked sort of like a plate only a lot bigger.
—He cautiously reached to touch it sensing first weather it was hot or not before preceding. He had no desire to experience any further pain.

—Still leery he was hesitating to get too close. With much trepidation he put his ear next to it to hear, unsure what he was expecting to hear. Abruptly the object began to rumble and vibrate slowly.

—A long deep moaning noise was heard from deep down with in the gray rocky dome. The old man shrieked in horror!
<“—AGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!”>
Yelling and screaming the man jumped off the donut shaped island. Quickly he jumped back into his boat, grabbing his little brown paddle, he paddled with all his might.
After he reaches about 5 feet from the small island his engine suddenly turns on! He freaks, throws his ore back into the boat reaches for the handle and turns it full throttle.

The old man rushes the boat back to his home shore with all due haste…!
[‘Energy and smoke spread out upon the grass and energy touched the landscape from the object.’] “—Huge water bubbles, began to appear on the surface of the water.

Starting from the center of the island moving outward in all directions. The bubbles started out big and grew smaller in size but with many more bubbles. The old man saw the bubbles headed his way and getting closer.

“Oh shoot not again!!!” Thought the old man. “I can’t take this at my age.” He lamented to himself. As he continued onward he saw schools of fish passing him. As he looked back at the bubbles behind his boat he could see that they were gaining.

Far off in the distance he could actually see fish jumping out of the water to get ahead of the bubbles. “What in the world is going on here?” Thought the old man out loud to himself.

Teal steam and smoke was rising from all around the dome in the middle of the island.

There standing alone by himself was a boy wearing a backwards, yellow baseball cap, a black shirt and pants. <“AGGGHHHH!!!!”>

Screamed the boy. The boy grabbing his face and yelled. The teal glowing radiation goop had enveloped him. His whole body felt as if it were melting off.

[“—The noise outside was so loud it sounded as if Armageddon were here!]
‘—Something strange was going on here though it wasn’t the first time.’

******************************************************************

[*…Else where, near the lake (about five miles or so) but divided by Green Leaf Forest was housing track. Most were three or four bedroom homes. One was blue with white Trimming.

The garage had a big white door with windows in it. A nice new modern dark blue car set just in front of it. To the right of the house lied a bedroom window…

—From this window was where a boy would sit and spend most of his days or nights.

Looking and starring out, taking in all he could see. This tall but little window was this boy’s whole world.
A fifteen year old boy named Nathan who was trying to sleep in his bed while he heard strange noises outside.

‘—The noise kept ringing on and on in his ears.’ It was keeping him awake all night long. He just couldn’t take it any more! He sprang up in his bed and instantly yelled…

<“—Ouch!!”> Ohhh that stupid shelf!”

Books fell all over him, which he quickly put back.
After which he threw his blankets back and got out of bed. He walked over to the window to see if he could figure what all the noise was about. [‘—What the heck is that…?’]

He thought out loud to himself. He peered outside his tall window. With its skinny frame his white pajamas looked big on him. It was just as he looked out side all the commotion stopped.

It was as if somebody hid a switch on his window ledge that turned of all the noise. Not a single noise not even a cricket. Only the wind blowing through the leaves was the only noise he heard. Now he could go back to sleep.

******************************************************************

—The next day early in the morning, Nathan woke up while it was still dark outside. Nathan was still tired yet unable to lie in bed. He mumbled to himself..., (“Its too dark outside!”) He hated it when he woke up this early in the morning. He was hungry so he decided to head to the kitchen to grab a snack…’
‘—He suddenly Nathan hears a noise from outside the kitchen. It sounded like some one was tip toeing around.’ Nathan knew he wasn’t big enough to scare the thief so he closed the door to the fringe and hide beside it. Nathan’s heart beat faster and faster as the footsteps grew closer. Nathan knew the guy must have been a giant. He could hear each step of his massive shoes.
Nathan couldn’t see him but he could hear him getting closer to the fridge each moment. Poor Nathan’s heart was about ready to burst He knew as soon as this guy saw him he was done. Right when he was in front of the fried the door swung open.
Hmmm thought Nathan I guess this thief must be hungry. Nathan crouched down to get a good look at those massive feet... Nathan almost laughed if it wasn’t for the heart attack he almost had. Because looking him right straight in the eyes was a fluffy blue bunny slipper.
This was the same bunny slipper owned by Nattily... Nattily was Nathan’s eleven—year—old sister. She was short, skinny, light skinned, light blue eyes and long brown hair that she let hang free. She didn’t have blemish on her face. She was wearing a small white, blue nightgown.
(“—Go to bed Nattily…”) Said Nathan.
(‘—…Leave me alone.’) Said Nattily.
(‘No—, I was here first.’) Retorted Nathan. (‘—I want some food too.’) Responded Nattily. (<“—”>😉 (“Why…?’) Nathan asked her.
(‘Get back to bed.’) Nathan said.
(“—, I’m hungry too…!”) Nattily said to Nathan. Nattily just stood there, trying to annoy Nathan even more. Nathan tried relentlessly to get his little sister to go back to her bed. (‘Nattily go back to your bed now…!’) Nathan said.
(‘No way! I’m going to tell mom what your doing then!) Nattily said.
(‘Oh fine then…!”) Nathan said. He opened the fridge as Nattily tip toed over in front of Nathan to grab something. There she found it. A chocolate donut left form yesterday. Midway on the third shelf between the coleslaw and ketchup was a chocolate donut. Nathan eyed her grabbing the donut. “Rats!” He muttered to himself, “Wish I’d seen that first.” Nathan growled as he tried hard not to bit his lip.
He watched as Nattily sunk her teeth into the scrumptious donut. Nathan looked high and low in the fridge for another donut but all that was left was the plain ones. No delicious frosting or chocolate on anything. Nattily finished her donut while Nathan watched.
[‘—There’s nothing but just plain old donuts…!’] Nathan went ahead and grabbed a couple of the plain ones. Walking over to a cupboard Nathan opened it up and reached for some cake frosting. He pulled it down and opened it. Then he opened the silver-wear drawer and pulled out a knife. He grabbed one of the plain donuts and smothered the top of it with frosting. The he grabbed another donut and put it on top. “AAAhhhhhwww that’s better a donut sandwich.” Said Nathan.
Nattily finished her donut while Nathan watched. Nattily and Nathan’s mom had stepped out into the kitchen suddenly. [‘Their mother was awake.’] Both Nathan and Nattily were surprised. Their mom was tall, skinny, green—eyed, and long blonde hair.
[<“Oh—,”>] [<“No—,”>] (‘Now look what you’ve—done…!’) Nathan warned his sister in anger. Mom put both arms up high and stretched them up as she yawned.
‘—Honey? Could you go outside and get the mail for me?’ She asked Nathan. ‘Aawww mmmom’ lamented Nathan. “—…Please? I would have got it last night but, I forgot.’ Mom asked Nathan. [‘Yes mom” agreed Nathan regretfully.
[<‘Why always me…?’>] Nathan thought to himself. [<‘My sister always blows it…!’>] He told himself. Nathan’s sister giggled triumphantly she Knew that she had won another fight. Nathan had to do what his mom asked, or else he’d be in trouble…! Nathan started to go outside. His mom stopped him. ‘Honey?’ she said. ‘Ya, ma?’ responded Nathan. ‘Make sure you put something on your feet. You don’t want to catch a cold.’ Nathan’s mom reminded him. ‘Oh and honey?…’
‘Ya, ma?’ ‘Would you be a deer and put out the trash too?’ ‘Ya, sure…’ Nathan thought to himself begrudgingly to himself.

Nathan wasn’t sure what to slip on then he though; ‘Non ones going to see me anyhow.’ So he slipped on his old pair of bear slipper paws. He never wore them out in public they were just too childish. His mom loved them so he couldn’t get rid of them either. So off he went Pajamas and slippers. Even still Nathan was cautious making sure no one was around.

******************************************************************

—Perhaps no one would see him in his pajamas as he stepped outside unexpectedly peeking over the garbage containers hoping nobody would see him outside. Nathan took it slow and easy as he came closer with a white trash bag wrapped up and tied up in one hand. He opened the front, latch of the garbage container. From the looks of things it was garbage day tomorrow.
‘…It defiantly wasn’t morning yet.’ [‘Dark outside and everything…’]
As Nathan was standing he heard the hum of a scooter. Some girl wearing a white red striped down helmet yelled to Nathan. Nathan wheeled the trash container out to the curb. Just as he was headed to the mailbox to check it, he heard the undeniable hum of a scooter. Some girl wearing a white and red helmet yelled to Nathan.
“—…Hi!” [<…It was just Julean.>] Instantly, she remembered who he was as she slowed and stopped. What really stood out in his mind were the name and the colors of the bike. It was red and had shiny silver metal bars on it. It was called a Vespa. “—…Hey!”
Nathan yelled to the person. It seemed as if something flew into his eye as he blocked his face. “Huh?” Nathan asked to himself as she rode close to him on her old classy red scooter. “Hi—Nathan—!” She yelled to him. “Julean?!”
—What are you doing up so early? Nathan asked her. She slowed and then rode it around in a complete small circle. Then she stopped right beside Nathan and turned off the engine. “Oh just some early morning cruising!” She exclaimed as she reached to take off her helmet. Instantly, he remembered who she was. She was an old friend from school.
Nathan’s middle school… She had long blond haired (which practically poured out of her helmet when she took it off), emerald green eyes, and athletically built. She was really attractive. As she checked her helmet she was looking at Nathan.
“What about you?” What are you doing…? Julean asked Nathan concerned. Oh I was just taking out the trash. Nathan told to her. Oh! I see. Julean said. “—Hey!!”
“—What cute pajamas, and I love those slippers!!” Julean said to Nathan surprised and pointing down at his white pajamas and slippers. “Did you get those at the,” <“—Owl Mart?!”> She asked. Hey! Nathan said.
“—It’s no use Nathan!!”
“You can’t hide those cute pajamas and slippers from me!” “—Well I?” Nathan endeavored to say something but just about as he was about to speak, Julean said, “Well!” “—See yah!!” Nathan stood there in a pitiful state as Julean took off on her scooter. The hum of her scooter disappeared in the darkness, as did a tiny red light on the back of her scooter. After she had left Nathan so abruptly, —Nathan felt regret that she had seen him in his white pajamas and stupid slippers.

[‘How embarrassing…’]

—Nathan grumbled in anger at having been caught in the middle of the early in the morning.
Muttering words of discontent beneath his breath he approached the mailbox. [‘Mail?’] He asked himself as he looked inside his family’s mailbox. [It’s mail all right…]
—Nathan thought as he pulled the mail out. Bills, bills, bills, and more bills. There were advertisements for clothes, furniture, electronics booklets and other junk mail. As Nathan sorted the mail a blue metallic CD dropped out. It had a clear rubber plastic case, so it didn’t break. Nathan quickly reaches down to pick it up and examined it.
[‘Strange…’] Nathan thought. Walking back inside he shut the door and dropped the mail off in the living room.
—With the disk package in hand he head back to his room. Slowly he shut his door behind himself and locked it tightly. He was eager to see what was on this disk.
Nathan flipped on the light and walked over to his computer. He reached over to turn on a yellow neon light on his desk. As he looked at the disk package he sat and read in small writing at the bottom of the package; [‘…Please test this disk.’] Ok…? Nathan thought bemused. ‘Hmmm?’
‘Interesting…’ Nathan looked at it again suspiciously. Immediately he had to know what was on the disk. ‘…I better look at this right now.’ He couldn’t contain himself any longer. Nathan had a gray blue laptop computer.
‘—Nathan turned on his computer after a few short seconds it had loaded up.’ He walked over to his bed and sat down. It was amazing how well this dish had been packaged. It was really hard to open. Nathan opened the hatch on the computer and put the shiny blue disk inside. The hatch closed up with the blue disk inside.
Then Nathan clicked on the access sign button on the screen to access the disk… The whole screen flashed bright and then turned black.
To Nathan’s surprise some text came on the screen. It read:
[‘…Document of the Government…’]

[‘…Top—Secret...’]
“What?” Nathan asked himself. Nathan watched the computer screen. It brought up a green looking graphic option. It was a small green graphical note at the bottom of the screen. Nathan clicked on it and brought up the next menu. At the bottom of the screen and there was a green diamond shape. With green letters along with a small note Nathan tried to read.
[‘Who made this program…?’]
Nathan asked himself. [‘…Is it really?’]
[‘…The Government…?’]

Nathan began to wonder again. If this was type some type of game it was really boring. There was something strange about this CD.
The screen turned black again and was replaced with some type of math graph or chart. It had all kinds of numbers, statistics, and curious formulas and math equations written on the sides.
[‘What could this be for?’] Nathan read all the inscriptions and tried to read the languages. All the information on Nathan’s computer was way over his head. Nathan couldn’t understand any of it.
What did it all mean? ‘Why didn’t the package the disk was sent in have no addresses on it?’
Nathan kept typing different commands but nothing happened. He accidentally clicked on something with his mouse and a slot appeared on the screen. It had a green graphic computer box icon with small box for a password. So Nathan started entering stuff but it was always wrong.
Nathan paused a moment and the whole screen went black. Nathan tried to get it to work but nothing would happen… After about thirty minutes Nathan got bored and went to bed…

******************************************************************

[‘…During the next couple of days to follow all kinds of news dragged on about what had happened the previous night.] [The news reporters were interviewing all kinds of people that lived near the event. Many were describing what happened that night. Some old guy even thought it was a U.F.O. One of the reports talked about some stuff that happened years ago.” It appears that long ago other meteors had crashed into that very same lake (at that time it was called Crystal Lake…) —Now called Laguna Lake. [‘I can’t believe these people.’]
—Nathan said to himself. People call it this because of the view on the North side of Mt. Hindago. Looking down on what is now called Laguna Lake. Nathan laughed to himself, some of the people really believed that the lake had something to do with attracting meteors from outer space…
[‘…People wouldn’t dare tell others.’] They had no problem at all telling the news reporters.
People always love getting their faces on TV.’] ‘Most of the stories were the same; they saw a strange green meteor, crash into Lake Laguna.’]
—People can be so stupid sometimes. Why can’t they just keep their big mouths shut? They just make themselves look like crazy people.
[‘Why just last month, there were scores of news reporters saying that a kid had seen an incident. He claimed he saw a real spaceship out there.’] [‘I tell you, people are just so unbelievable …’] Nathan reminded himself…
‘One of the worst stories was the about a kid. Apparently the kid was so close to the event he got some kind of burns or something. The authorities questioned the poor kid. The kid was in some type of hospital trying to heal but the news reporters were relentlessly trying to interview the kid. One of the reporters inadvertently caused some complications to the kids’ treatment.
That and the shear number of reporters in the room made it impossible for doctors to care for him. They bugged the kid so much that the kid actually suffered a nervous break down. —He was even sent to a mental ward for rehabilitation. Poor kid he’s completely blocked the whole incident from his mind.
He had to undergo multiple surgeries. [‘Towns can be real crazy…’] Especially when you consider the type of people that lived here… To Nathan the town of Crystal Lake always had an eerie feeling about it. There was a sense of foreboding dread seemed to thicken the air around him. The sun beamed down upon the gray cement sidewalks of the neighborhood… Rocks within the sidewalk seemed to sparkle and glimmer like clear diamonds. The town itself was several miles wide and contained three large man made mountains which stood behind Laguna called the [‘Hindago Mountains…]
—The mountains were covered in tall green grass and weeds that never grew any taller than eight feet—five, inches. ‘The middle mountain which was the main Hindago mountain was located closer to the lake than the other two which stood behind the center mountain, Hindago. Laguna Lake ran right down the center of the city—town creating a Northern and a Southern ‘Crystal Lake.’ The lake itself was built and tunneled in the years of the two thousand twenties. Shrieking Forest was on the Southern half of Crystal Lake. The Forest was full of tall green pine trees and even taller brown and green leafy woods. Nathan knew what the people called it.

[‘Green—Leaf Forest…’]

—Sure the name sounded more appropriate for the forest but Nathan thought the name, ‘Shrieking Forest,’ was much better. Especially when you consider all those different birds making shrieking sounds within it… The people of Crystal Lake were by far, the most bazaar people Nathan had ever known or seen...

‘—During the rest of the past few days, numerous rumors were heard around town describing strange events and strange things happening. It was as if some type of sign for Nathan. ‘Lately to Nathan,’ Night and day… It was as if people around the neighborhood seemed way too placed. It was kind of creepy… It seemed that because, ‘…long ago.’ ‘They said some things that spooked a lot of people about Laguna. That the lake itself, was being possessed by strange things or something within it.’ Some kind of energy that hit it long ago… Caused terror in peoples eyes.
—In another time, or possibly another period. The past meteor rock that hit in Two—thousand twenty, was said to be possibly from the Andromeda Galaxy...! ‘Or some sort of object most people believed hit the lake those two nights ago… Heck, Some people even believed it was being haunted by something within those deep, creepy, gloomy— waters.
—But the nonsense of most people went on throughout the days. Maybe there was something in that lake that was living in it— perhaps. ‘Maybe ah un-terran being… Or something. [‘Nothing would ever mean anything,’ this could be fact or fiction.]
…There are of course legends of some ancient Indian grounds. Some say old Indian fishermen who used to dock their boats here haunt the lake. They say that their spirits are upset and cannot rest. They used to rest their boats on the shores at night. This whole lake and town was built onto the state New Jersey…
The rumors and the endless threats abounded. Lots of people were trying to keep this lake and land from being built. [‘The lawsuits and the endless orange, red and yellow tape and lawyers seemed to trample all over the place. Of course the Land Bureau was trying to keep their mouths shut about the lake being closed off to the public.’ [—It just didn’t quite work.]
—All the people who knew or lived near the lake snuck to it at night or early in the morning. They all believed it was like their own private beach or something. —People all across New Jersey and Milsburg City knew it. The whole ordeal seemed so odd. ‘Yet Nathan knew not all the rumors of the lake weren’t true. But they seemed to go on, and on and on…
—Some people wondered why the lake was attracting so many meteors. Nathan couldn’t turn on the News with out hearing of how large meteors landed right into the larger portion of the lake.

******************************************************************

‘—One day Nathan walked across the fields as he peered over at the wider portion of the lake called Upper Laguna.’ He brought his red bike along with him. The sunlight felt good on his arms. He knew he had to be careful of sun due to his light completion. Nathan was astonished by the view of the breathtaking forests. The entire lake of Laguna laid spread out before not more than half a mile before him. The intensity of the blue was so refreshing.
Nathan was now able to ride his bike down a pass through some trees. Down the soft, thick, moist, muddy, dirt—hill he rode. He hardly saw anyone as he rode. Mornings here were so quite and serene. Especially in the morning… This particular morning it seemed too peaceful for Nathan. The surroundings gave —Nathan an odd and eerie feeling again.
—Right now the only thing that mattered to Nathan seeing if he could get a closer look at whatever landed into the lake…
—Nathan rode and rode until finally, he stopped his bike right near the entrance of the miniature white sandy beach.
—Nathan put his hand over his eyes and made a salute to see things better in this bright sunlight… To Nathan’s chagrin he saw orange stick cones barring his entrance. Nathan got off his bike and walked closer. He saw a yellow tape with the words [‘Caution!’] on them.
All kinds of People were blocking his entrance. There were road workers detouring people away from the site. Guards were all over the place. Nathan saw a couple of people went to lunch but, still there were others to take their place. He continued to watch and look for an opening. One of the security guards came up to him to ask him to leave.
Nathan walked away before the guard got to him. After what seemed like hours Nathan finally found an opening and went for it. Nathan’s heart was beating fast.
—He approached the dark blue waters of Laguna Lake. As he drew close and near to the shore, he noticed that the water was greener up close. Nathan wondered what these people were doing to the lake to make it react this way. Nathan was totally bemused… Fortunately there was nobody out this close to the lake. So no body was watching him. [‘Hmmm…?’] Nathan thought. [‘…Must have went to lunch or something.’]
[‘Perhaps break…’] Nathan thought stiffly. At about that time Nathan noticed some bubbles coming up out of the water. His shoes began to make a gurgling sound as he walked.
With out warning the water started bubbling rapidly. It was as if something was boiling beneath the water beside Nathan.
‘Hey!’ [‘What the heck is that…?’] Nathan asked himself curiously.

Nathan lowered himself and stuck out his hand over the water. Nathan knew that if he put his hand to close to the bubbles an alligator could bite it off. It seemed as if heat or fluid was burbling up from below. Nathan knew it wasn’t a crocodile or anything! ‘Hey its pretty warm!’ Nathan thought.
‘—Like a hot—tub!’ He said.
—Something caught Nathan’s attention something green and shinny moved in the water below. Nathan bent down on his knees to get a closer look. As his face grew close to the water a bubble came up and popped in his face! Some of the liquid trickled into Nathan’s eye.
—The fluid was hot his eyeball felt like it was on fire! Which caused Nathan to quickly pullback… “—AGGHHH!!!!”
[“—What the heck was that?”] —He grew whiter than a ghost as he stood back terrified. Rubbing his eye wishing the pain would go away. It seemed as if something strange had moved beneath his face! His whole face started to feel like it was on fire!
<“—AGGHHH!!!!”> he screamed again.
Perhaps if it had been a crocodile it would have been better! Nathan remembered from a discovery channel preview that a crocodile can easily climb and craw quickly to land like a snake darts and grab prey quickly!
“—Nathan laid helpless on the ground hoping that the pain would just go away.’
<“—Hey kid!”> Nathan was startled as he looked up and to see one of the road crew walking up to him. <“What do you think your doing?!!”>
<“This lake is restricted area!”> Yelled a fat man in a yellow hard hat and an orange worker vest. He wore blue jeans and a red buttoned plaid shirt. [‘He looked like he had just returned from lunch as Nathan got up an looked over his shoulder at him…’]
<“Hey kid,” tell me what your doing down here in the first place!”> The man demanded. ‘Nothing!’ Nathan said as he got up off the ground. “Sorry, got to leave!” Nathan said quickly as he got up and ran swiftly to his bike. He jumped over the yellow tape, past the cones back to his bike. As he ran he grabbed his bike and onto it as he rode off. The man yelled. <“—Hey!!”>
<“—Get back here and answer me, right now!!!”>
<“I’ll have you arrested for this!!”> The fat man was warned him. It was like he had to chew some body out to make he feel important…!
Nathan continued as he shook off his close call with the road worker.
[<‘Never again…!’>] Nathan thought. At least not while those workers are there. Nathan decided to return back home…

“—The next days that followed, people or more accurately scientists from all over where taking dives to the bottom of the lake... Apparently the meteor had crystallized in the cold water of Laguna...’ Shards of blue crystal were being found in the depths of the lake. Mineralogligist, geologists, crystaloligist, and even people from NASA. —One of the scientists found that the crystals had a strange reaction from a hydroxyl compound of DH920 infused with isoaridum3.
He said that results were spectacular. On the computers they were able analyze statistical computations. They even had an electron microscope and were able to study quantum fluctuations in the sub variant particle exchange ratio. Of course this caused a stir around town until the whole public of Milsburg knew.
—[‘Nathan knew in his mind that after they had built and finished and completed this lake by filling the whole entire thing up with the water from the ocean that stretched out miles from Laguna, there had been new riots.’]
—Some of the scientists discovered something else about the first meteor rock that had landed.
It had a mass of newly discovered organisms in the blue crystals that fell off of it. They found these sub microorganisms only after studding then with electron microscope. It was deduced that the entry into our atmosphere and plunging in to the ice-cold water crystallized them. There was life brewing from within the blue crystallized meteor rock.
‘Could this of been part of a dead destroyed planet…?’ With the organisms traveling through the galaxy passed down through centuries of travel?
[‘Was the meteor that crashed infesting our ancient civilization…?’] What kind of mutation could have happened in deep space?
—But Nathan knew from then on. [<‘—Till, this very day, and age,’>]
[<‘—…No one knows for sure.’>]
[<‘It’s all been a mystery since the meteors crashed into the lake.’>] That mysterious lake… A news reporter announced on the radio doing a talk show about the Meteors in Milsburg.

[“—Till this very day as we speak,” A whole new line of mysteries become paced at, they’re peek…’] Nathan knew this as the words that have been revealed to the world before him, about several bazaar things that have happened out here in Milsburg city and the big apple New—York city…
[‘So far,’] Nathan reminded himself. This was far Bazaar.

******************************************************************

—The very next day Nathan and his family arrived home from shopping.
He went outside to take out the trash. It was nice and sunny outside. To Nathan’s dismay people were standing all around. They were staring at him for some strange reason. Nathan felt uneasy. The entire street was covered with his neighbors. More people were stepping outside each moment. Some just stood on their porches. One person had stopped working on their lawn, another had a hose in one hand, another had some with brooms and rakes, and some were hanging up their laundry.
All of them were just standing there looking at him. Some were sweeping their front porch from the red yellow or brown leaves from the trees as they all starred at Nathan. Nathan stood there frozen, he felt uneasy about with all this starring…
Nathan ran to the mail—box in front of his house and peeked in… He couldn’t wait to get back inside. He hated all those people staring at him. As Nathan walked up to the mailbox he slowly opened it. Mail? He wondered to himself.
He pulled a few advertisements as well as bills out of the silver mailbox. As he reached to shut the mailbox door, something slipped out of Nathan’s hand. It fell right through all the other papers and landed on the ground…
(‘This time it was a green plastic CD in a plastic clear rubber case…!) Nathan took the mail and the green shiny disk and ran back inside his house… He noticed the smell of smoke but didn’t pay it any attention.
—Minutes later as he was in his room, Nathan quickly went to put the disk into his computer and started up his computer. When it finished, Nathan quickly ran through the messages… On the computer screen there was a new message. —Nathan’s screen was full of green flowing mathematical formulas and letters that looked like some type of hieroglyphics as he examined the screen closer. Nathan noticed a message at the bottom of the screen. [‘It read:’]
[“—Please report back to the lab for next mission.”] Nathan waited a while and in the boredom took his finger and rubbed on the plastic of where the mouse was on his laptop. He clicked on something else as it suddenly read something.
[‘Access denied!’] [‘…Other disk must be inserted first before using this disk!’]
Nathan’s computer suddenly shut off.
[‘What the?”] Nathan asked himself. He turned his computer back on again and then waited for a second while his computer rebooted. Nathan reached across his bed to his dresser and pulled out the blue disk. Then reaching back to his computer he stuck the blue disk in.
As usual the computer started its whirling and humming sounds. He then accessed the disk and clicked onto the menu to bring back to the green mathematic graphs and stuff…! A message began to flash on Nathan’s computer screen.
[‘…Please insert the green disk now!’] It read. Nathan did just that as he popped out the blue disk and replaced it with the green disk. There were no designs or words on either of the disks except for small letters saying:
[‘Please test this disk…!’] Nathan accessed the system as the green disk was spinning inside the laptop.
[‘…Something began to happen…!’]
Nathan’s room was quite except for the humming of his disk drive. Nathan realized the computer was now accessing the disk inside his computer.
He couldn’t wait to see what was on it. It was really weird the math—graphs and the numbers were interlocking on the screen like two pieces of a puzzle brought together…! Hmmm that’s interesting thought Nathan to himself… Nathan waited and waited until the screen changed color. It went from bright white light to black again. Nathan watched in fascination as more a more complicated mathematical equations flowed down the screen.
It was a graph showing scientific analysis and computations and other types of weird writing!

[‘^841—A= Z8* <P2 / 97~ % (154 {67c34a79} G4#53-9)* V—5+ 110100\#Y2|U=178.1!!!!’]
—Letters and numbers and stuff similar like that which made absolutely no since. As far as Nathan was concerned they could have been modified for a better milkshake! Nathan thought slightly giggling to himself. Scientist had really odd ways of explaining stuff with all those dumb numbers and mathematics! Nathan thought it was a complete waste of time to do so. Probably a program made by scientist- lowlifes that think they are so smart or something…
Nathan kept to himself while he worked. After sometime Nathan got quite bored.
—As hard as Nathan looked he couldn’t find anything on the disk. What he did find was ludicrous and illogical. Nathan’s computer clicked off. Nathan tried feverishly to get it to turn back on, but was unsuccessful. Pondering over the events concerning his computer he just sat there trying to figure out why it wouldn’t turn back on. The more Nathan tried to imagine what was on that disk, the more his head hurt.

—[<“Stupid disk…”>]

[<‘It’s hiding something from me, and it won’t show me!’>]

******************************************************

—Nathan said to himself as he opened up the door on his desk. Inside his drawer he there was a secret compartment, which he put the disk in. He then walked out of his room to go to the kitchen…
As Nathan went into the kitchen he observed all kinds of people in the backyard. Through the sliding glass door, he saw some kind of commotion in his backyard.
[‘He saw a huge crater in the center of the backyard.’]
[“<So that’s why all those people were staring at my house! It also explains why I smelt smoke earlier!!”>] Nathan thought.
—Nathan’s parents and his sister Nattily were already outside. The fire department had just arrived. People began to knock on Nathan’s family door. Nathan’s mom went to see who was at the door, she reached down and as she turned the knob of the door.
—Instantly Nathan’s mom was pinned behind the door as the door flung open. Someone in the crowd yelled out, “Excuse me maim!” Behind the door you could hear a muffled, “Well um…?” Neighbors, flooded into the house. They made a beeline to her backyard. Nathan’s mom was perplexed at her awkward predicament.
All kinds of people came to see the crater. Old, young, men, women and children came to see this crater in their backyard.
“We have a crash site in our backyard!!” Shouted Nattily in a cheerful voice, as she was jumping up and down. Nattily was smiling as she announced it to everyone that arrived in the backyard. Nathan had opened the sliding glass door so everyone could go see it.
“Over here!” Yelled a man already in Nathan’s backyard. ‘Hey how did he get in?’
Nattily asked. Before Nathan’s family knew it reporters were in their backyard too. They all raced inside the house across the living—room and through the sliding glass door all holding cameras. Nathan’s family thought their backyard looked small now. With all these people and the new crater. Nathan looked outside and nothing was there but a big, deep, crisp—brown hole in the ground.
The once finally manicured green lush lawn was now history. Nathan and his family were beside themselves as they stood there looking at the large hole in their yard. They were dumb founded.
Meanwhile the hole, itself looked as if it had been engulfed by flame as the sides of its walls were burnt all the way down. It was obvious something had crashed here. The hole was perfectly round. “It was obvious what made this hole!” ‘There’s no way somebody could have dug it up!’ Said a man urging in a riddle. <“—Excuse me!”> Said a woman as she and her child looked at the hole. Some officials came in and started taking measurements of the crater.
They started putting down wooden sticks and wrapping yellow caution tape around them. Some people showed up wearing radiation suits. Some guy with a megaphone started telling people in a calm manner to back away from the scene. Just then, police officials arrived on the scene. Scientists with radiation suits raced to the scene and started examining the crater. They began taking small samples of the rock for lab analysis. They took samples from everywhere.
Of course most of the samples were taken from the crater. Not just from the edge but all the way down. From entry point all the way down to the bottom. They had all kinds of glass tubes and plastic—Baggies…
[‘Nathan was sure everybody thought his family had an alien sight right here in their own backyard…!’] People were looking over the— fence of Nathan’s families yard to see what was in the ground. News reporters were trying unrelentlessly to question Nathan’s family about this matter.
Nathan’s parents were speechless and didn’t know what to say at first. The news reporters held up microphones to his family’s faces even Nathan’s little sister Nattily. <“Can you tell us what happened here young lady?”> Asked the newsman. “Yeah!” Said Nattily.
“An alien has come and is out roaming in the streets as we speak!” Said Nathan’s sister cutely.
(“What…?”) Nathan asked her bumping her with his shoulder in an unbelieving smirk. <“What?”> Asked the newsman.
“You say there’s an alien roaming our streets?” The newsman asked her as he stuck the black gray microphone back in front of her face. “Yes!” “There is!” Said Nathan’s sister.
[‘There were a lot of questions to ask and answer…!’] Nathan’s parents answered many at first then some more until— [‘It started to get a little bit annoying…!’]
Nathan’s parents looked at all the people raiding in their backyard— chitting and chatting making a big scene for even more people to show up as Nathan’s family’s whole front yard was covered in swarms of people. Meanwhile the news reporters were still talking to Nathan’s parents and Nathan stood there eyeing around them in suspicion… “–Until, a news reporter came right in front of Nathan and stuck a nice black microphone right in front of his face.”
“—Excuse me!” How about a little interview! Said the man to Nathan. ‘Not right now.’ Nathan said to him.
(‘It will make you noticeable!’)
(“For the school news—…!?”) Asked the newsman holding up a camera to Nathan… “—…Well, Uh? I um? What? Nathan asked. Well? Nathan said frustrated and scared –Ok…!”

djfbudfdb

Nathan said thinking to himself. ‘What do you want to know?’ Nathan asked them. <“Well,”> Said, the newsman to Nathan.
“Is there in fact an alien in your home or is he roaming around outside the streets or city somewhere? Nathan went confused. Well…? –I? Nathan thought about this for a second. He thought as he bet he could scare the pants of some of these people if he told them something that people would be frightened about…!
[‘So Nathan decided to let out the guts and glory…!’] “Yes!” The thing that crashed in our yard is an alien spaceship and yes it is roaming around on its own.
<“It’s a shape shifter!”> Nathan said… It can change its form to a man to an animal. He said. To a woman, to a beast! It may seem docile at first, but if you get really close to it, it will rip your arms off…!
Nathan told them.
<“Oh my!!”> Said the news—reporters astounded and astonished scared. Oh one more thing. In fact, it could be anyone. It could even be one of you for that matter. Said Nathan pointing at the newsman. “What? Me?” Asked the newsman. “Yep!” Nathan said.
(‘Or it could be,’) …Nathan suddenly saw a man standing over his fence looking at everything, everybody. The person that was eyeing his backyard was a mean old neighbor that made many complaints about Nathan’s family and was—, probably going to sue them for something immediately…!
“—That man over there!!” Nathan said as he pointed to him over the fence as the whole newscast looked.
“There!!”— <“—You see, him?!”> Nathan asked them. The man that saw Nathan pointing at him suddenly began to duck down quickly as he grabbed his fishing hat from hanging behind the fence. But the newsmen saw him.
<“—He is the one behind it all!!”> “—He’s the one who made that crater in our own ground!” Nathan had told the news people. “—I swear he’s got a spaceship in his backyard or something.” Nathan told them. <“What?”> “Ah spaceship?!!” Asked the news reporters.
“Yes!” Nathan said. “—But you’ve got to catch him fast!!” Nathan said as he hinted to them. <“—Before he gets away!!”> The man that he pointed at went inside his glass sliding door of his house, quickly and shut it closed behind himself and locked it tight as he put up his curtains quickly! Very quickly the newsmen ran trying to find a way around the yard to get to that man…
<“Quickly!!”> “—Yelled the news reporters to each other as they all ran out of Nathan’s family’s yard and immediately ran to the house behind their yard to investigate— that mean old neighbor.
Nathan giggled and laughed to himself as all the cameramen were now surrounding the man’s house keeping a close watch on him now…
“—Quick we’re going to need some more back up!!” Said a newsman on a small black cellular phone. (‘That will keep them busy…’)
Nathan thought to himself. Soon everyone was raged to the thought that they might have found that alien. Nathan was certain that they would question him the moment he stepped outside and would interrogate his home until he would crack! Nathan himself thought—very, little of the moment as he looked at his family again…
Mean–while all the people that were there in their yard were all leaving and many had gotten pieces of small rocks from the crater and a majority of them were still looking around Nathan’s house for something as they were all leaving suddenly. They all headed to the house behind theirs. That mean old neighbors house.
Nathan’s— families, house was now— silent and calm, as everybody
was gone…
Nathan’s Dad by the way was tall and fairly muscled and he was short dark haired. He sighed and said, “Well, …That’s, that…! I’m afraid.” Nathan just stood there as his mom held Nattily with her arms around her as Nathan’s dad looked around his yard at what looked a little bit messy but not half that bad…

******************************************************************

[‘The next day, Nathan was leaving his class from Laguna High School.’] As he looked around at all the teenagers all around him as they saw him walking down the hallway. He was keeping quite as people and teachers and kids all kept looking at him, and some were even pointing. Nathan heard a few— guys and gals say.
(“…Hey that’s the kid from the news…!”)
(“—The one with the crash site in his backyard…!”) They whispered. Nathan was going,

[“Huh?”]
What are they saying? Nathan asked himself.

(“…Hey that’s the kid from the news…!”)
(“—The one with the crash site in his backyard…!”) They whispered. Nathan was going,

[“Huh?”]
What are they saying? Nathan asked himself. He walked down the school hallway. Nathan was now standing by a row of red lockers as Nathan heard a crowd of teenagers stepping behind him as he looked and suddenly a whole bunch of guys and girls came up to him asking Nathan.
“—Do you really have a crash site in your backyard?!” Asked a funny looking girl with pigtails on her hair. Then a nerd guy in glasses came up and asked him. “—Can I have a sample of it?!”
Nathan looked at the kid. “Of what?” Nathan asked in question. Of your space ship rock! From the crater?! I’d like to study it you see!
“—For my Class project~!!”

Nathan looked around as he saw a bunch of girls staring at him and asking him— “—Do you really have an alien that lives next to you?” “I’d like to meet him, who ever he is!”
Said a girl holding two hands together sighing.
“Well um—…?” Nathan said overwhelmed by teenage kids surrounding him. Then suddenly a guy teacher in a red sweater came down the walkway as Nathan saw the man. Behind the crowds of kids… Nathan was looking right at him.
The man was looking as he was looking right back at Nathan. Then suddenly a strain of a headache and a pain like a needle hit Nathan’s brain as he looked at the bald tall man dressed up in a red sweater and brown pants wearing square seeing glasses… Then he started to remember a flash—back. Some soccer game, some night ago…
[That same— night, when he had woken up on the bus,] [Earlier that day that some man had blocked him from the exit to the boy’s locker room.] [For some strange reason he looked familiar.] But wait?
[<Wasn’t he the manager of the soccer game?>]
The man just stood there watching Nathan as Nathan looked briefly at him and then turned to look back at all the other kids in front of him all around himself. Then suddenly another teacher came into the center of the crowd and said.
“—All right!” “—All right!” “All of you nock this off this instance!” “—You’re blocking up the hallway entrance!” It was a woman teacher dressed in a blue, teacher’s uniform dress as she suddenly saw Nathan. “—Oh, excuse me!” She said to him as she saw Nathan.
“—…Wait a minute!” She said. “You’re that boy I’ve heard all about from the news…!” The one who has a crater in his backyard? “I’d like to talk with you after school some—other time.” She had said to him. She had come up close to Nathan’s ear and said.
(“Um, …about your neighbor…?”) She asked him. (“Is he really…?”) She asked Nathan. Nathan shook his head slowly. “—See you later!” She said to Nathan as she walked off slightly quick…! Well, Ok then. [I guess.] Nathan thought.
The woman teacher went through the crowd of kids as she went all the way across to the other teacher who was still— staring at him…
Then the man teacher had turned around as the other woman teacher in the blue dress who had just talked to Nathan came up to him and they both went on their way and walked down the hallway with each other…

******************************************************************

[“…The day passed by as Nathan went to get on his school bus, to go home.] Nathan got up to his bus seat and sat down as he sighed. Nathan thought on as sat there alone on a seat in the bus.”] [I can’t believe they actually— think I have an alien hiding somewhere by my house.] Nathan thought about this. “This was crazy…”
What did those news cameramen say that made them think Nathan had an alien at his house? Then suddenly as Nathan was waiting and the bus was still loading a familiar face came onto the bus as Nathan saw somebody.
“—Hi Nathan!” Said Teal. Teal was Nathan’s best friend from school and a neighbor across the street from his house that rode the same bus Nathan rode on. “It’s great to see you again!” Teal told him as he sat down in a seat in front of Nathan. Teal turned around to see Nathan… “So how’s it going?” He asked Nathan. Fine! Nathan had told him. “Man I haven’t seen your face for a week…!” Said Teal. “Where have you been all— this time?’ Teal asked Nathan.
“—Oh I’ve been a little, sick that’s all.” Nathan replied. Oh well, your welcome to hang out at my house anytime…! Said Teal to Nathan. “Yeah.” Nathan said. That would be nice… “—Hey, did you hear about the rumors?”
Teal asked Nathan. “They’re saying all over school that some kid has an alien crash site in his own backyard!” Have you ever heard of such a thing? Teal asked Nathan. “—, Teal?” “Don’t you ever watch the news?” Nathan asked him.
(‘That kid, is the same kid, who’s—sitting right next to you, this very moment…!’) Nathan tried to give him a hint. “Huh?” Asked Teal stupefied. How can I explain it? Nathan asked… (“That, same, kid, is, me…!”)
Nathan had told him. What…? “—No way!!” Said Teal. He looked at Nathan’s eyes and took a long glance at him. “—No way,” He replied as he shook his head.
“This is so—, cool!!” “—Shush!!!” Everyone will, hear— you…! Nathan covered Teals mouth with both hands. But to think of something as extraordinary as an alien site!
Even if its in your own backyard. Said Teal. “—Yes, I know what your thinking,” “and the answer is no…!” Nathan said. “—Oh please tell me who this alien guy is!” Teal was jumping up and down in his seat wildly.
(“—…Please don’t tell anybody who hasn’t watched the news…!”) Nathan told Teal quietly. “All— right all— right!” Said Teal as he turned around and sat back down in his seat. He then turned his head another time to— glance at Nathan as he turned back around to look ahead of himself in his bus seat…
[“…Meanwhile moments passed as Nathan and Teal and the rest of the people on the bus were traveling down the streets of Milsburg.]
Built and constructed in the cities southern boundaries of “New—York,” “Milsburg was the ideal city to live in for the year— 2035.
Which was the year everybody was living in now as we speak. [Even ourselves…!] The year right now was— 2035, and many industries built around it were deeply constructed buildings that stretched across the landscapes tall and wide.
The newly built city called Milsburg— was magnificent. It was an excellent place for there was an area where there were largely built man made mountains spreading across—the center of the Milsburg landscape. One of the tallest, mountains was called Hindago, —Mountain...
Which led to a large man made Lake called –Laguna Lake that stretched out into the ocean beach… “Crystal Lake,” was the newly build and developed neighborhood that was built at the edge of Milsburg and its peek…
[Yes. There were a lot of interesting things that happened here in this town and city.]
It was recently that the new news tower was built here in the center of –Milsburg and it was made for the cost of keeping our “–TV stations and channels on the air live and for our own entertainment too…” [–Meanwhile in the bus Nathan sat as he was talking to Teal.] “They have over here a pelage of theories going on here now.” Yes they do indeed. Nathan said as he looked outside his window glancing at the tall mountains speaking to Teal recently.
“UH?” “–Aha!!” –Said Teal Nathan’s friend in his bus –seat in front of Nathan. Teal always wears Teal clothing… He’s short skinny light flesh colored has short spiked up yellow hair and always moves around. Constantly.
Teal does. “—Hey, sit down!” Nathan told him as he attempted to get up—again from his seat again to show Nathan something in his hands. Teal then sat back down again still and then turned around… “—Very soon, Nathan!” Teal said.
“—My entire collection will be complete!” “—Nathan!” Teal said as he kept flipping his, [“—Silicon Baseball cards…!”] He had showed Nathan those things that very same night ago before. Nathan had told Teal about what he had thought earlier about the meteors and that poor kid on TV and told him about what he thought about this whole city. – (…“Interesting theories…”)
Teal replied. –He actually admitted to Nathan. Teal whispered to him as he formed a slowly formed rectangle in mid—air with his skinny little fingers. He was calculating something probably but Nathan couldn’t tell what he was doing as Teal continued to say something.
(“—As for I myself began to sort of wonder, the simple scams of it all…!) Said Teal. (“What if I were to claim, that, I know something…?) He asked Nathan.” (“–What if I told somebody…?”)
(–Would I probably become famous for it…?) He asked Nathan. (“In the High—Tech world we live in. “—Were coming too?”) Teal reminded Nathan.
“—I mean, think about the logic!” Nathan laughed suddenly. Teal was copying a commercial that always played on the buses, “—radio and radio stations that aired around here about the mane silicon companies in Milsburg!
[It always started up something like this…!] :
[“—In the High—Tech world we live in, or, we’re coming too."]

—Nathan and Teal both shrieked and stopped suddenly gagging— up on their throats and then laughing out loud again as everybody looked and stared at them confused… Teal was making his funniest looking face as Nathan sat there holding his stomach trying to keep from laughing but he couldn’t. Because every—time Teal did it Nathan felt an uneasy laughter burst from within him.
That commercial came on the radio stations most of the time, and was heard plenty of times on the bus. —[“Nathan and Teal would crank up and crack up terrible jokes about the silicon companies and it all.”]
They would spread rumors about the most nonsense things to other kids on the bus. “—They run everything around here!”
“—It’s ridiculous!” It’s a riot! Said Nathan. Nathan was talking about the governors and the people of Milsburg… It was recently that the people of Milsburg were overthrown by a higher source of control.
[“The United States military stepped into the scene as they had sworn to protect the citizens from all terrorist acts.”]

“You give them a little control over a little kid’s day—care center here, and they run everything! They start training them for battle or something! “For a war!” –Teal exclaimed. He even began to wonder if this town would fall in stake for such a riot of –“talk” on the radio. Meanwhile on the radio, people talked about the things that run our country and our state! They talked about the economy and the stock market!
[“They talked about how they were going to run this city and “New—York,” for the year 2035…!”] It was clear that these people swore that this time, things were going to be different… [And the people of the United States were going to do everything in their power to keep this city clean and spotless…!]
But Nathan thought that was all a lie. That there would be no more terrorist acts… [Teal joked and coughed.] “Do you really think a government would spend they’re millions just to put such, news reports world wide? Asked Teal to Nathan and some other kid on the bus a girl most likely listening to them both talk.
“—Now that’s scary!” Nathan said. “…Hey I bet they’re going crazy trying to find that lost crash site!” …Especially “—Under water!” …Said Teal. “Yeah!” Nathan said… “Huh?” Nathan asked Teal. Nathan thought about that one. [He didn’t even realize this for a moment.] “You mean they think theirs, aliens in the lake?” Nathan asked Teal. “Possibly…!” Teal said. Things aren’t really what they used to be here in Milsburg! He said. “The whole world probably thinks we’ve got some sort of alien site here… In Milsburg!”
Teal replied. Wow. Nathan said. They say there in that Laguna Lake, Said Teal. They say something crashed into it… “Did you know that?” He asked Nathan. “Did you hear?” He asked Nathan. [The other kid looking at Nathan and Teal turned back in her seat and decided to keep out of this conversation.] “—Just, think.” Said Teal. “Maybe in the future,” “This place will be really, really, really, famous!” (It already is famous…!) Nathan said. [—In history.] He thought. “–Oh yeah!” Nathan!” Said Teal. You’ve got to take a look at this! He said.
—Teal opened up his backpack and pulled out a folded up newspaper. Nathan looked at it and he laughed…! “Take a look what’s on the front cover!” Replied Teal as the newspaper unfolded as Nathan saw a picture of something on the front…”
[It was an alien creature they had put on the front page.] “Take a look!” Said Teal. There are some more of them! Nathan turned the pages of the paper as he looked. “Man that’s some ugly, bug—eyed creature you got there.” Nathan replied. What do you think of this? Teal asked Nathan. “I think it’s a riot.” That’s what I think. Nathan said. I mean people actually believe there are aliens out here Nathan! Said Teal to Nathan seriously…
Then trying to convince him glancing at Nathan’s eyes, with his fine green emerald eyes… (“Do you possibly think that people are hiding something about these occurrences in our own hometown town?”) Asked Teal to Nathan. (“Do you really think that there are aliens here in our own back yard as we speak?”) He asked Nathan. Nathan kept still as he replied— [exhausted.]
“—Hmmm.” I don’t know. Nathan replied. “Gee wouldn’t it be cool if something happened here like an incident or an accident that proved that there very existence existed?” (Like what kind of accident…?) Nathan asked Teal. “Like an explosion or a cloud of fog or a dark shadow over our city or something, like that.” Said Teal. Because if that would happen, that would be, really, really cool…! Teal said.
–Yeah that would be cool. Nathan thought to himself. [Nathan went up to Teal put his arms high above Teals head as teal stopped and glanced strait at Nathan.] Nathan clapped his hands together suddenly, but not violently, yet he surprised Teal as Nathan totally scared the stuffing’s out of Teal. <“AGGHHHHHHHH!!!”> Teal screamed…!
‘—Nathan cracked up laughing that Teal became so easily scared over the most common of things.’ Nathan leaned back with his arms around his stomach crossed.
He couldn’t stop laughing. “Hey that wasn’t funny!” Said Teal complaining to him. Nathan was teasing him. “—Hey Teal!” Nathan said. What—? Teal asked Nathan.
So what classes do you have now? Teal thought for a moment…
“—Umm?” “He thought all puzzled.” Moment’s later meanwhile the Bus continued on… [“Two Days Passed.”] After people had actually dived to the bottom of, Laguna Lake to find proof of alien life, or even meteor fragments like Nathan had heard of on the news. But not a sample of successful answers, as in –obvious, it, –wasn’t really a surprise. Teal, Nathan’s friend hadn’t been around all day and Nathan hadn’t seen him for quite a while, two days to be exact as he wondered— where could he be. Nathan was walking home that day. From you know what…! The Note Book in one hand and a backpack on his back …Nathan was headed home.

[—It was a Friday...] Things were easy to think about for him… He walked as he saw kids and teens along the sides of the— roads also walking home just like he was. Nathan thought about all those teenagers walking across the street.
They all seem the same… He thought. “Oh well…” [Nathan had taken a bus from school as he walked the rest of the way. Then suddenly, he saw his friend Teal running up to catch up with him. “Hey!” Teal said as he was huffing up and down breathing in and out bent leaning his hands on his knees.

*—Huff—! —Huff!* “—Nathan!” *—Nathan!” “Buddy…?” “—Man, Where, ya going?!” Teal asked Nathan. “…Home.” Nathan said to him. “Hey man!”
*—Huff, —Huff!!* “Your home’s, that way!” He exhaled. He pointed straight to the left as he said to Nathan. “I know…” Nathan said just as he came to a rail bar near a stairway by a gray sidewalk near Teal. “I just think it’d be much more fun to take the long way home.” Nathan said to him. “Oh, *—Huff!!
“Well,” “…yaw—know!” Said Teal. “Where have you been for two whole days anyway?” Nathan asked Teal. “—I, uh like to uh, …think about things…!” Yes!
Teal said to him. Nathan asked him suddenly. “Like what?” Teal thought for a second. He looked up as Nathan looked up slowly. They both saw a nice big green palm—tree shading the sidewalk west of them. [The houses in this part of the neighborhood were covered with them.] Then Teals answer came to Nathan! “Like aliens?” Nathan asked him. “…Huh?” Teal asked. He suddenly slowly looked up at Nathan in a sort of bewildered expression…
You like to wonder about aliens a lot! I know! Nathan said. It seems like you told me. Nathan said to him. [For some strange reason Nathan knew that.]
Teal said suddenly, Huh? “What?” Teal asked. “Are you, nuts?” “What on earth are you talking about?” Teal tried to pretend like he didn’t know what Nathan was saying. “yaw—Know?” “…Because I Don’t!” Nathan continued… Maybe it was meant for us to be different! Then look the same. “Or Maybe I too,” “—I’m just loosing my Marbles!”

******************************************************************
—Nathan replied to him. Hmm? Not a bad thought. Said Teal. Now normal and not huffing anymore… “—Wait a minute.” Nathan thought. “…Teal looked all shivery suddenly.” Hey buddy, are you cold? Nathan asked Teal. Then Teal decided suddenly.” I better get on home now too! He said to Nathan.
“–Talk to yaw, later!” He replied. “—See yah!” Said Teal to Nathan as he began to run off. “Hey!” “—Where are you going?” Nathan asked him. Teal was slowly moving ahead of Nathan looking at him backwards and began to run even— faster then before...!
Very fast far away from him! Nathan walked a little more then he ran after Teal as he was going. Nathan suddenly stopped…! It seemed that Teal was way to far ahead of him for Nathan to catch up to him. Nathan stopped at a halt as he was huffing from the heavy backpack on his back. Then he remembered something. [“—That’s right!”] Nathan thought. I’ve been wondering where Teals been, ever—since that last time I told him about my ideas to start a riot and become famous…! “—Ever since then, Teals been acting kind of funny.” Strange he seemed today. Like he were, [“…Hiding something?”]
Nathan asked himself. “…Nah!” Nathan thought. “I know Teal alright…” He wouldn’t act like that! Thought Nathan. (“…Then why was he?”) –Nathan whispered to himself suddenly. (“—…So startled up about what I had said about aliens?”) “—…Nathan then sighed.” The sun was in his eyes and then he looked back down at the ground. Suddenly a wrath of depression shot up his gentle spine. Then he leaned downward hard. There would be nothing to do when he got home. [“Except watch TV…”]
But there were hardly any good shows on. He thought as he leaned on another white painted metal gate stair rail as he wondered even more.
