The Alien

I saw an alien. I actually saw an alien. It was big, but not that big, it had hands, but not actually 'hands'. It had eyes, but not actually 'eyes'. It had a big head, but not that big, it had legs, but without knees. It was the weirdest thing in my life.

I was walking my dog, in the forest. It was around 3 o'clock. But it was very quiet. My dog didn't mind though. He sniffed under one tree. Then pooped against another. I always enjoy the sniffling of my dog. I find it funny, but this time. I saw something else.

I just looked from tree to tree and I saw this light. It was such a weird light. It looked like the sun, it looked it was a very powerful light. But I could look into it easily and it sure wasn't the sun because the sun was behind me. My dog barked at a flower for no apparent reason.

I wanted to check that light out so when I got to a T-junction. Usually, I would take a left. My dog went there too, but now I took a right, when my dog noticed I didn't took a left he followed me too.

The light was getting closer, it was on the left side on the path. Every time a tree was before it I thaught that it would be gone if it became visible again. But it didn't, it just stayed there. Another T-Junction was coming up. The light was getting closer. I walked faster because the light appeared to be right above the path to the left. I arrived at the junction and looked to the left, and there I saw it.

I didn't see it for long. Just 3-4 seconds maybe. But I got a clear shot of it. It was an alien. It had some sort of grey cloth around him whilst he ran in the bushes. His head was a green with something that looked like hair. But it looked more like some sort of clay, A very smooth version of clay. His hands were like two thumbs, one was holding some sort of can, a very thin, but very long too. It was green, like his head.

I was very scared, my dog didn't notice him. I stood there for half a minute. Wondering what I just saw. The light, what had happened to the light? I dont know. Why was that thing wandering around in my forest? I walk here! This is my spot. I don't know much about that.

But I know it was an alien.

I decided to buy a gun. You never know, when it might show up again, and it was after me. Whenever I went to the forest. I would bring it with me. I had practised on the firing range. If it was after me, he wouldn't stand a chance.

Days went by, no alien. Weeks went by, no alien. Months went by. I didn't believe myself. I didn't saw it, I told myself. But I knew I did see it. I knew it was true. I knew I saw an alien. And I would kill it if I saw it again.

And when 400 days had passed... the light was there again.

It looked brighter than the last time, but I could still look into it. And I grapped out my gun. At the T-junction I went right again, my dog right behind me. The light became bigger, and the next t-junction closer and closer.

I started to run, I had my gun upwards, just like James Bond. The t-junction was now merely ten metres away. 5 metres. I started to slow down a bit so that I would get a clear shot when I turned myself to the left. I turned myself to the left. And there it was, again.

I closed my eyes pulled the trigger, once, twice, three times in a row. I took a deep breath, and I shot again, and again, it was screaming. It was the most horrific scream you could imagine. After 5 more shots, I had no ammo left. I dropped the gun and opened my eyes.

And that soldier in his green uniform...

... that soldier, was dead.
