You shove into the jungle. Something very unusual is going on tonight and you intend to find out what.
You've gone only a short distance when you come apon a place where the trees have been smashed flat, leaving a large channel of bare mud.
"No grass. No trash." says Clarisse, indicating the smooth brown highway "Whatever did this happened in the last hour or so."
"Yeah, and look at that- some of these trees are still burning." you add, pointing.
"Definately this way then"
Clarisse sheaths her machete and you make your way down the very clean, very straight and slightly on fire path towards whatever it is made it.
You notice after a minute's walking that the mud is getting hot underneath your feet.
And then you come up on it.
A huge metallic shape, bigger than a house, and shaped a little like a bullet. Its buried partly in the upturned earth, and is lying at the bottom of a newly formed crater in the forest.
Spaceship is the word that springs obviously to mind.
You begin to circle around for a better look, when a door opens in the top of the thing, and thick black smoke beings pouring out. A second later a figure lurches out, wavers a moment in the smoke and then falls half a dozen feet to the ground. It makes a wet, squishy sound as it impacts the mud.
"Its gotta be a Kaa"
"No doubt- whoever heard of a human piloting their own spaceship anymore?"
"Come on!"
The two of you approach the giant metal machine. You can't make out much of the interior of the ship from here, but the smoke that had poured out when its door first opened seems to have cleared itself out. There doesn't seem to be anything to prevent you from climbing inside and having a look around.
"What happened to that... thing that we saw crawling out?" you wonder aloud "Doesn't seem to be any sign of him... EEEEW!"
This last is because you almost stepped in to what looks like a four foot diameter puddle of puke. Only chunkier, and more blubbery. Yuck.
But Clarise takes a closer look and prods it with the toe of her boot. A wierdish sort of ripple runs through the thing and you realize that its a bit more solid than it looks.
"Hey come're" She says "Feel this!"
"Whaaat? Gag me! No way! You feel it! Gross! Come on, lets check out the insides of this ship!"
Click here if you climb up into the awesomely cool alien space ship!
or click here to stick your fingers into a nasty pile of unidentified slime instead.
Sometimes you think your aunt is weird.
