Stories from Room 12

Room 12 —

An Unexpected Visitor

I am lying on my couch watching TV when without a warning, my house starts to shake.  Even though it's night, an eerie torrent of light floods into the room.  The dazzle was fascinating so I yanked open the door and immediately I slammed it again.  Finally when I picked up the courage I opened the door slightly and caught a glimpse of something extraordinary, something fabulous, and amazing hovering above my house.  It was a UFO.  I was overjoyed to be the first to see a real life UFO up close.  It was fabulous, but scary.  Some stairs descended from the UFO and a fat, chubby-eyed green alien trotted down the stairs.  He looked around, as confused as I was.  His left top eye squinted at the sky.  Both his right eyes admired down at me.  His fourth eye gazed at the other houses.  He said "blghigzgib a oof"  I yelled "What!"  so he helf up a sign that said HELP I'M LOST!

The Ugly Alien

As I stepped out of my car, a sudden dazzle of light struck me.  I was blinded by a torrent of brightness.  I stood still not daring to move.  When I finally picked up the confidence, the light faded away and something that looked like a ship descended to the ground.  It was a UFO!

Subsequently I studied the glow of colour that hit the ground.  Out walked an ALIEN!  I was struck by the ugliness and messy body of the weird creature.  The alien sighed "There's my home"  The alien pointed to a planet.  

I inspected the alien, wondering if he was telling the truth.  I killed the alien and I lived happily ever after.
