Say goodbye to all your friends
They will miss you when this trends
I get so uptight

(Hey)
Sit tight
Green light
Everybody's out at night
Go
Why don't you
Beeline
Outshine
Everybody blow your mind
Go
Why don't you see
What they're saying
It's crazy
I've seen it
Those things they believe in
They get hazy
I think I mean it

When the current drags me in
(when the current drags me in)
Leave me to the hands of men
(leave me to the hands of men)
I get so uptight
I get so uptight
I get so uptight
I get so uptight

Wser and Gage were looking up in the sky in amazement. Then, bam! What they were looking at had crash landed in the park and smelled terrible. And, by the looks of the 2 kids, They were completely deaf from the crash landing. That thing was a UFO. They ran over curiously, and peered into the hole it made. It was covered in dirt and grime and was made of an indescribable new material. It was bright enough to make the children squint when they looked directly at it.The Saucer seemed intact, but Gage was almost 100% positive that Whatever was inside had been killed from the fall. But to his surprise, The doors of the ship creaked open. And that’s when I came in.“Gage, Wser! get back!” I yelled. My name is Mike Ball. I didn’t believe in aliens until then. So, as you could imagine, I was terrified. “You have no idea what might be in there!” they could be nice, but for now lets get out of here.” I propped Wser and Gage on each shoulder, and ran as fast I could. I was slowly limping toward our house. Suddenly the nice park turned into a nightmare. All the animals were sprinting in the other direction of the UFO. You could hear the birds frantic chirps, the lizards toes scampering on the grass, the crickets chirps, and… well this new sound that I had never heard before. It was such a high pitch sound that It burns your ears when you hear it. Then I realized that it was the aliens. I felt really stupid, but I pushed that aside and kept running. The house was just a few steps away. I was drenched in sweat, as if I just took a shower. Behind me there was those noises, getting closer, but I didn’t turn around to see. I opened the door, slammed it behind me, and fell to the ground in exhaustion.First, I made sure Gage and Wser were fine. They were both complaining that they hit their heads when I collapsed on the ground, but they were ok. Then I looked around to see if my sister was home and was caught by surprise. The kitchen was covered in this, red sticky gew. All up the counters and floor and everywhere possible. They’ve been here before… I grabbed the sticky counter, pulled myself up, and looked out the window.There were at least 500 of these creatures walking toward the house. I guess that’s the only way they could show me they mean no harm. I might of walked outside to greet them If I was on my own, but I didn’t want Gage and Wser to be hurt. So I slowly made my way to the backyard with Gage and Wser hoisted on my shoulders. The entire house was covered in gew, and the farther I got to the backyard, the thicker, redder and stickier the gew got. Eventually it got to the point where i couldn't tell which room I was in . It looked like I was walking in a cave. A sticky, disgusting, cave. Eventually I found that the back door was blocked by the jello. I could hear the footsteps getting louder… closer… I saw that the basement stairs were open, and I would’ve ran down them, but something grabbed my shoulder.“Do not be afraid, human. My name is Ausar” His voice was surprisingly bold and deep. With all those high pitched sounds I expected their voices would be high, and, wait… how did he speak English? I quickly turned around and saw this astonishing creature. They aren’t like the aliens in movies, green and with lots of tentacles. They were a lot like apes. Except they had eyes on the sides of their heads like hammer head sharks. They are covered in fur, so i guess their planet was extremely cold like most planets other than Earth. They had 6 fingers and 7 toes, and for some reason I got a feeling of comfort when I see them. All of their fur was dark gray and poofed from the landing. Some of them were bleeding, but that’s understandable because of the impact. In Ausar’s hand was a beat up horn. But it had a black box on the bottom of it. Just as I was about to figure it out, Ausar held the horn up to his mouth and said, “If you haven’t figured it out, this right here is a universal translator. Do you want to speak to us?” I nodded, thinking maybe he would understand and grabbed the translator from him. I calmly said into it, “ You should go, if you can. these people will kill you because they are afraid.” In a couple of seconds the horn started making computing noises. Like the kind an old computer would make, but louder. It had never translated english before, so it was a whole new world to it. Finally it spat out the high pitched screeches I was expecting, and the aliens looked puzzled. They were mumbling to each other with their screeches and scratching their heads in confusion. Finally Ausar took the horn from me and shrieks into it. Immediately it transfers back, “Why would they want to hurt us? All we want is water. Since our planet has lost all of it’s water, long story, we need just enough to get us by. I’d say all your planet’s water and Mars.” immediately my heart started pounding. I took the horn from him and said in a worried voice,”We need water as much as you do. Don’t you understand that?” Again the aliens were confused. They seemed as if they didn’t know what I was saying, but they did. Ausar grabbed the horn. “I’m afraid that won’t do at all.” He handed the horn back to me, and started talking to his companions. My heart was still pounding, and then I remembered… Gage! Wser! I forgot about them the whole time! I turned to my left shoulder and saw Gage munching away on his sleeve, and I turned to my right shoulder and saw Wser teary eyed. Oh no… and just as I expected,Wser broke into a fit of tears and screaming. He screamed, “I can’t take this anymore! I hate dose noises so much! They sting my ears and make me feel bad!Waaa!” This time, the aliens started panicking. They all ran for the door, except Ausar, and rammed through it. Their screeching noises burned worse than ever before. Ausar barely held the horn up to his mouth and said, “We are coming back for your water, and destroying your inferior race as well! See you soon, boy!” Ausar went running out the broken door and ran toward the UFO. I ran out onto the front porch to see the chaos, and saw hundreds of little red escape pods breaking of the crashed UFO, and flying off, far into space. And that’s how the Water Raids began.
