Yunataian Weapon 

Chapter 1

     "what made the universe that we wll live in come to happen? Majority of scientists say, this universe came to be after the great big bang, whether its correct or wrong what we can't grasp is that if nothing was there before the big bang, then how 'did' the big bang had happend... You know like if there was a explosion, there should be something that caused it... Because nothing can happen without a logical reason. There's always a reason for anything to happen......"

     Neil was very frustrated with the nonsense that his mother had made him listen to. He doesn't care how the universe was born or whatnot, all he have time for in this month, is the esport championship. His friends and he had registered a team for this years esport championship league. 

    Last term, they all had studied hard so they could get what they wanted from their parents that's very difficult for a teenager to attain these days. Its "permissions  video games". Now they have no little than 45 or 46 days left till the first round to commence. Some might say that's enough time , but no.

   Later that day he was on the balcony which was attached to his room. Thinking for a replacement name for the team. They all had agreer agreed that their current name which was team "We No Die" is pretty lame. While he was thinking, he had a strange feeling like someone was watching him. He looked around as if to see a ghost but thought better of it and started to walk inside blaming himself for being naively paranoid.

   As he got inside and was about to close the door something almost reddish like spheres caught his attention that was high in a tree in his front yard. It looked almost like the eyes of some wolf like creature that you might read in fiction books, skepticism creeped into his mind as he was looking straight at rhe spheres transfixed. Then they went out for a one second and came back. This time neil was sure its some kind of a animal and also, he got the mind numbing feeling it had also noticed him.

   He went quickly inside and bolted the balcony door and closed the drapes. He quickly grabbed his baseball bat, ready to defend himself.

   He waited there for which felt to him like an eternity, and calmed down thinking that his eyes had played a trick on him and was relieved. That relief was short-lived. There were three rhythmical knocks on his balcony door. He started to shout for help but remembered that he was home alone. As he watched, his locked door was opened like that scene in Harry Potter where the "alohamora" sleep was used. He was too scared to even utter any sound when the creatures walk slowly into the light of his bedroom. 

Chapter 2

   There were two of them. They looked like normal people but was very tall, almost to the door frame. They were wearing black jackets with hoods. They were standing there with their palms up, like surrendering. That's when Neil noticed their palms were pitch black, its not black colour but whatever colour when no colour is presented, just like a black hole.

   "He-llo the-re hu-ma-n" one of them said. There was some whispering in an language that Neil hadn't heard, and the other creature came forward.

  That's when Neil's fiight or flight system took over. He raised his bat in defence, but still no sound from his mouth.

   "We mean you no harm, but are in need of your help." Said the creature who had came closer. "Why me, of all people?" He asked. "Because we crashed near this house and we saw you noticing us when we climbed the tree to look around." 

    

    "First thing firstly.. what exactly are you and where you guys came from? And how do you speak English so fluently?" Asked Neil. "We came from a galaxy called "Yohantai" its few billion light years from your milkyway. We are members of "The Ancient Recon Legion" which is like police in your world." "Wait, how did you know about our planets military if you just crashed here?" Asked Neil. " Never mind that, as I was saying we were transporting some hilghly classified plans of some sort. You don't wanna know more. And we learned your language just now. It was a real puerile task." Said the Yunataian. One creature looked at the other and said "Time is of the essence, we carry waste it chattering. We must take action, and return to our mission" 

   "Yes, of course. Human, no more questions. Also, we need some acid, any acid will do.  Do you happen to have some in this dwelling? As soon as we got the acid we'll be out of your life asap." Said the creature. " Yes! I have some. Wait here." Said Neil and went to get some acid that was labeled as H2SO4 from his fathers lab. His father was a scientific researcher who uses acidic solutions everyday.

   After they got the bottle filled with acid they left just like they had said they will, and Neil was very glad that it was over.

Chapter 3

   After a week or so from the aliens little trip. Near midnight after he was done studying for his school tests Neil went downstairs to get a glass of water from the kitchen. He got the drink and was climbing the stairs when he heard the sound of his room door creaking. He knew the sound very well, because he had heard it many times, when he was sneaking downstairs in the middle of the night, trying not to wake up his parents from sleep. 

   He walked towards his room but didn't find anything out of the ordinary, so he went to bed." As he was lying on his bed he noticed that the balcony was open, so went and went to closed it. At that exact moment two of those Yunatai creatures came, but this time they wore no ordinary clothing. Whatever they wore it looks same as their palms. Pitch black. 

   "Why you guys came back?" Asked Neil. They didn't answer him right away, but continued to stare at him, like statues. After a moment they stay to speak amongst themselves,  which Neil didn't understand. "Why you here again?" Asked Neil. The creatures stared like before and said " You-Human, you have something of ours. We don't know how you  stole our weapon but it's time to give it back! Or you will have to face the consequences for your felony." 

   "Wait! what? I had done no such thing" said Neil in astonishment. "We'll then, human, have you no intention of giving us our artillery?" Asked the Yunataian. "I have no such thing you morons. Is this is how you say thank--" he didn't had time to finish his sentence, the other alien jumped forward and knocked him out cold.

   Several minutes later Neil woke up and stared groggily towards what seems to be like the inside of a cabin in some sort of an aircraft. The two Yunataian didn't seem to notice that he was awake. They seemed to be arguing    about something in their weird language. "I don't think this the same Yunataian that came to my room before, those guys seemed real friendly, but not these two…. Wait! Didn't those guys tell something about transporting some highly classified plans. Those plans must be there plans for the weapon these guys are talking about. Then they must not be only transporting the plans but also the weapon. I need to escape from here soon."  Neil decided.

   At last they seemed to land. The craft to landed very swiftly. Neil waited till the aliens were out of the cabin and tried to listen to their footsteps, but the door got closed behind as the aliens left. Neil went to the door and tried to open it, but it didn't even budge. So he went to where the aliens had been standing. It was like a cockpit of a plane, but more complex. He kept pressing buttons in the front to open the door, for a few minutes, but to no avail. He started to went back to the cabin without any ideas on how to get out of the craft. As he was walking past the seats he noticed a red button with a picture like a hatch on a carriage plane. "Please let this be the one" he said to himself and pressed the button. To his greatest joy the back of the craft came open, but with a deafening grinding noise.

   "They might have heard it and come running. I should run away, anywhere away from this craft" thought Neil and ran outside, " Oh! What is this place? Wonder where they were gonna take me to." 

   It seems to be something like a gas filling station, but not like any he had seen on his hometown. Not very interested in the filling station, Neil ran away from the craft, but he never got very far. His whole body shooked like there was electricity coursing through his whole body. It was so much painful. Even though it only lasted for a couple of seconds. After that he couldn't even move a muscle. Every time he tried it felt like every tendon on his body is suddenly on fire. While he lay he wthere on the ground the aliens came back. And tased him again.

   This time when he woke up he was prisoned in some kind of a force field cell. When he touched it, his skin began to blister and burn. So now he only have a half a meter of moving space. He was now getting worried about, what these aliens might do to get the weapon, which he didn't had from him.

   

  While he was trying to form another plan. The craft shook as if something had hit it. Then another two of these Yunataian materialised in the cabin and shot the aliens that captured Neil. The newcomers look almost familiar with their hooded jackets. "This must be them. " Thinked Neil and made a sound in from his corner. They looked over and saw Neil. " Hello there human, we meet again" said an alien. "Hey! Could you free me from these please?" One of them came near Neil and smashed the keypad with the butt of the of his weapon. 

   "You have a lot to explain" said Neil after getting up. "Okay, we'll do the talking on the way to your planet, shall we?" "Okay" said Neil.

   "You must be really thankful to us, human, because if we hadn't come before you had entered the Yunatai atmosphere time will travel slow, relatively to earth, due to its high gravity. In briefly, for every minute you spend on Yunatai 3 or 4 years will have passed in Earth" said an alien. " Oh my god! I didn't know something like that could really happen!" Said Neil in astonishment. " By the way, they said something about me stealing a weapon. Why would they say that?" Asked Neil. " Well, the plan we told you about, we had a prototype for that. When we crashed near your house these criminals were following us to sabotage our mission. So I know wherever we go, they might surely be able to find us and get the weapon. So to stop that from happening I had to hide the weapon somewhere safe. For an example your bedroom." Said the alien.

  "You are kidding right!?" Asked Neil. "No, never. I literary did hid the weapon under your bed."  " Ah, we are here. Let's go, get the weapon human." 

   They materialised in Neil's bedroom, and one Yunataian went to Neil's bed and got a something that looked like a large pen. "This, is the ultimate weapon, human. Now we must return it to the safe hands of the Recon Legion and imprison those criminals" said the alien and went to talked with his companion in their language.

   They stood together once more and lifted there palms up, saying "Goodbye human, have a good life*

   The end
