  The prosecutor rolled her eyes in disgust and anger and she clenched her teeth and said "Fine, then, you all will return to deliberations. And, I better get a verdict immediately. Do you all understand?" "Yes, ma'am", answered all of the aliens in the conference room at the convention center. They all started to deliberate again.

  The prosecutor walked out of the press conference for a short personal intermission, and she entered the main hall of the Starmos Convention Center. The main hall has arched windows that have a a view of CVA Boulevard and, there are seven panes on every window.

  There is one pane that separates the arch from the rectangle that supported the window and, three panes that make five cuttings in the arch. There are two panes that are shown from the top to the bottom of the rectangular part of the window and one pane that that is the symmetrical horizontal equator of the window. The floors are ornate marble floors which have beautiful design patterns. Outside of the press conference is a bar that serves a variety of drinks. The bartender is a human being who came over from planet Earth. Often, in Starmos City, human beings are alienated especially after an event when one of the three fugitives being a human. This human being has brown hair and almond black eyes.

  He has fair skin and, he is six feet five inches tall. He is a college student at AU (Alien University.) But, for the summer, he has a job as a bartender at the Starmos Convention Center. The prosecutor crinkled her eyes and shown an angry face. He asked her respectfully, "Would you care for a beverage?" "Sure", answered the snooty prosecutor. He then asked her, "What kind of drink is at your request ma'am?" "Seltzer with a lime", answered the prosecutor. He gave the beverage with a nice attitude. "Have a nice day", said the bartender.

  She gave him a dirty look and walked back into the conference center with her drink.

  She returned back to the stage and asked the citizens at the press conference, "Do you all have a unanimous decision regarding this invasion?" "Ma'am, we still don't have a unanimous decision", answered the female spokesperson. The arrogant prosecutor slammed her drink on the podium and started yelling in frustration. "Are you all out of your mind? You should make a decision to prosecute. Instead of being numbskulls and not making a decision, learn how to take an analytical stance. Shame on all of you. But, then again, it is not your decision that counts. It's your leader's decision that counts. So, the hell with your opinion. I will call Cornelius to come over here to make the important decision." She walked out of the press conference for a second time and made a phone call to Cornelius.

  He answered the phone, "Hi there, Cornelius Von Alien speaking, ruler of Starmos City. How may I help you?" She said, "Yes, it is Jacqueline, the prosecutor of Starmos City. I need you to come down to the convention center regarding a decision of import regarding an invasion of Earth regarding three fugitives. Can you do that?" He answered, "Sure, I can. I will be down there. Just close your eyes and count to ten." She hung up the phone and silently counted to ten and closed her eyes. He arrived. She said to him, "You came here quite quickly." "I know, I used a teleportation device to bring me here.

  Now, where is the press conference taking place?" asked Cornelius Von Alien. The prosecutor is pointing to the room and replied, "Over here." They both walked into the room and Cornelius is the only one to approach the podium. In the room, side conversations are occurring between all of the alien citizens and media reporters.

  He yelled explicitly, "I demand silence." All the aliens in the room became more silent than a church mouse. He then said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, and fellow comrades, I am sure your royal prosecutor discussed a possible invasion of Earth to find the top three most wanted fugitives in Starmos City. And, I'm sure you all know that she consulted me to carry out an invasion. Well, I am giving the complete approval for an invasion." The prosecutor jumped on the stage screaming in elation. And, the audience members remained silent.

  Cornelius asked the audience, "Well, where are your cheers?"

  Phony cheers happened in the audience. And, the press conference ended. Everyone left the conference with different attitudes. It is nine fifteen in the evening, and the conference just ended. Meanwhile, the trio of fugitives are on the run from the tyrannical government in Starmos City. Tom asked, "Oh my God, why are they having a press conference about us three?"

  "Because, they have a perfect opportunity to show their animosity towards man kind. And, this press conference then attracts a media circus. So, don't ask such a stupid and inconsequential question", answered Light. "Well, maybe to you it is silly ass question. But, this question to me is a very important question", replied Tom. "Now, why do you think the question that you asked me is so important?" Will interrupted, "Ladies, stop fighting over a silly question and, Light, his question was an important question."

  "We're not ladies", replied Tom and Light. "More importantly, where are we planning our escape destination?" asked Will. "Earth", answered Tom. As the trio of fugitives were leaving the alien city and entering the orb highway, there was a sigh of relief. "Even though, this place has brought a lot of nostalgia to my life. I have to say thank God, we're out of this city", said Light. "I know", replied Tom.

  After clearing his throat, Will asked, "Should I say this now, while you two are having your jubilation?" As soon as the alien fugitive said this just now, Tom's grin of celebration disappeared and he answered in the form of question, "Is this going to be some good news or will it sabotage my happiness?" "I'm sorry to say this, but it is sad news", answered Will.

  "Get it out of your system", replied Light. "If you were listening on the radio, Cornelius gave the permission for the alien army to raid planet Earth and find us", said Will. "Well, how can this future problem be resolved?" asked Tom. "I will keep you on Earth to send out alerts to every mortal human", answered Light. "How long do you expect us to do that?" asked Tom. "If the aliens are planning to invade Earth within twenty four hours, then we will be able to travel to the Mayor of California County, who will send out Alerts to the citizens of Earth", answered Light.

  "What shall we do from there?" asked Will. "We will escape to a planet that is far away from Earth, and an unknown place that is away from those beastly aliens", answered Light. After two minutes of driving on the highway to the universe, a constellation had shown the word Earth. The dots in this particular constellation are not connected. "Earth", screamed Tom. "Where?" asked Light. "Two and a half hours from here", answered Tom. "Wow, real funny", replied Will sarcastically.

  "You are nothing but a shit-fer- brain, Tom. You should be ashamed of yourself for making such a sudden move like that. You could have made us gone astray on this road and I would've gone sidewinder into another planet. So, don't do any sudden or boisterous move like that again, especially when I am driving", said Light. "Why am I being shamed so much for what I did?" asked Tom. "Well, you could've caused Light to go out of control which would have messed up getting us to Earth and, we would've been screwed up. So, yeah, you should be ashamed of yourself. People like you belong in a circus", answered Will.

  "Stop fighting, you two", said Light. "I am fighting for a probable and just cause. Tell that imbecile to stop hindering us", replied Will. "Hey, let's get one thing straight. I am not an imbecile.

  You are an insolent fool for saying such a thing. You have a ton of audacity to talk to me like that", said Tom angrily. "Excuse me, Who are you to talk to me like that? But, the last I checked you were the ignorant fool who belonged in the circus", replied Light. "That's not true", said Tom angrily clenching his teeth. "The two of you better be quiet and I mean it this time", screamed Light. "What will you do to us then if we continue?" asked Tom. "You will be feeling my wrath.

  Because, if there is one thing that I can't stand, it is when there is fighting on board", answered Light. "Ooh, I am scared", replied Tom sarcastically.

  "You better be scared" said Light. "What can we do to get ourselves preoccupied while we're traveling to Earth?" asked Will.

  Light answered, "I have a nic
e video game that everyone plays in here. It is an amazing game that everyone loves." "What game is that?" asked Tom. "Starspeeder seven thousand, I believe. It goes something like that. But, I will dispense two aPads that shall give you the ability to play the game", answered Light. "When will you dispense them?" asked Will. "Give me a chance", answered Light.

  The LSC remained silent for thirty seconds and, two aPads were dispensed. These aPads looked like a touch screen computer that was in the shape of an apple.

  "Cool", said Tom. "Light, I think you fit the category of an extraordinary folk", said Will. "Thank you", replied Light. The game is being played on both of their screens. Tom Jackson and Will Von Alien are immersed into a flight simulator game. The flight simulator looks like a mundane cockpit. However, the only difference is that there is not a joystick present in the game and, there's a red dot in the virtual cockpit. The significance of this red dot is to fire a laser.

  "What is the objective of this game?" asked Will. "I want the two of you to listen to me. The point of this game is to destroy asteroids. Now, there isn't a joystick in this virtual cockpit. At the top right corner, of this virtual cockpit, your score will be kept. If you are wondering about the red dot in this fake cockpit, well that is the dot that will fire off the laser. Initially, it will be hard for you guys to control this thing and shoot the laser at the same time. But, after getting some use out of this, you will be able to shoot the laser and maneuver the virtual vehicle at the same time", answered Light.

  "How do you control the vehicle?" interrupted Tom. "Now, if you wouldn't have interrupted me, we would be able to get to that subject matter. To maneuver this vehicle, you move the aPad around.

  Now, this is the last time I will say this. Initially, it will be a challenge. But, after getting used to it, you will be able to have complete control of the vehicle", said Light. "Okay, I can see where you're coming from", replied Tom. "Thank you. Now, do me one favor", said Light. "And, what would that be?" asked Tom. "Shut up, and concentrate on the game", answered Light.

  "Both Will and Tom, started to play the game. Tom is in the lead. But, Will is far behind. So who'll be the winner?" said Tom's aPad. After five minutes of playing the game, there was a winner.

  Light asked, "So, who won the game?" "I did. I am the best player in the world. In your face, Tom", answered Will. "Well, the winner will get a prize of a royal dinner at a place of his choice", said Light.

  After the game was finished, the trio of fugitives arrived into an orb that looks like the Milky Way Galaxy. "Does this mean that we're heading to Earth?" asked Tom. Light answered, "If you look down into space, you will be able to see Earth and the other planets."

  "What other planets are there besides Earth?" asked Will. "Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto", answered Light. "You are very brilliant. It is impressive how you can name so many planets. You must be some sort of a brilliant savant", said Tom.

  "Thank you", replied Light. "No problem", said Tom. Will commented, "Say, Tom is right. You must be quite brilliant to understand so much.”

  "Well, that's what happens when you're a shapeshifter with a knowledgeable computer built inside of you", replied Light. Since, the trio of fugitives shifted past the twenty four hour time zone orb, they have now entered the present day and time as on Earth. Right now, they are on their way to their home planet. Tom, Light, and Will flew down to planet Earth after five minutes. As they are approaching Earth, meteors started to fly toward them. Tom asked, "Are you meteor proof?" Light answered, "Yes, I am. However, I can't survive an asteroid." Will is silently sleeping. Bam! An meteoroid hit Light. A loud thud was just heard. Tom is impressed that Light has the capacity to survive such a harsh object. "It is amazing how you're able to survive such an immense and gargantuan object. You are a marvel", said Tom. "Maybe you humans think that I am impressive. However, the aliens in Starmos City just see me as mundane shapeshifting vehicle", replied Light. "Well, all the Earthlings including myself see you as unique", said Tom. "Thank You", replied Light.

  The three fugitives are becoming closer to planet Earth. After passing the Exosphere and the Thermosphere, they are entering the mesosphere. Over one hundred million meteors and meteoroids are in the Mesosphere. "You are entering an odd area. What area is this?"

  asked Will. "The Mesosphere", answered Light. Another thud has been heard from the window of Light. "Do you have any actual lasers?" asked Tom. "No", Light answered. He then asked, "Why are you asking me if I have any real lasers?" "I want to clear a path for us", answered Tom. "Yes, I do have lasers", replied Light. "So, why did you lie to me?" asked Tom. "I shouldn't have to explain to you why I answered a particular question in a certain way. I am pretty sure that I am explicit and I make myself clear when I say things to you", answered Light. "Will you give me the power to control the laser?"

  asked Tom. "Yes, you may", answered Light angrily.

  "Thank you", replied Tom. "No problem", said Light sarcastically. Tom fired ten shots over the course of fifty seconds to clear a path for Light. He (Tom) then asked, "Are you happy?" "Oh, I am so happy", answered Light sarcastically. "Thank You", replied Tom. About fifteen meters from the Stratosphere, an alarm, that sounded like a repetitious chime, was heard. Will asked, "What's going on?" "An asteroid is coming at us", answered Tom. "Well, I will increase my speed to avoid this absurd situation", replied Light. "I am afraid not", said Tom. "Never say never", replied Light. He increased his speed which brought them closer to Earth. Finally, they entered the Stratosphere. "How many feet are we above ground?" asked Tom.

  "We are about fifty kilometers from the Troposphere", answered Light. "Okay, how many feet are we from the ground?"

  asked Tom. "Seventy five kilometers", answered Light. They entered the top of the Stratosphere. There is still a dark color in the Stratosphere. However, driving through the darkness at mach one hundred speed lasted a short amount of time. Eventually, Light started to reduce his speed to mach fifty m.p.h. After three minutes of driving through the Stratosphere, the trio entered the Troposphere. Now, they are able to see the World with a clear view. They eventually reached the Atlantic Coast and, they entered California County, New York. It's noon time in California County, and they are driving down the main road in the small town. From there, they kept traveling through the suburban area of town. Life seemed to be very normal for everyone.

  However, it is not really normal. Every human being who Light drove past started to stare and look at him in a perplexed manner, as though he was driving in an extraterrestrial, unidentified vehicle that was in plain sight. He eventually drove past the suburban part of town and drove into the business area in town. Since, it's a typical Sunday, every person in town is walking his or her dog. When they witnessed the LSC pass by, it was a jaw dropping moment. Every person who noticed the unidentified vehicle opened their eyes widely and covered their mouth. Meanwhile, the fugitive trio traveled to where the governmental offices are located and, they arrived at town hall. Light asked, "Who wants to come in?" "I will", answered Tom.

  Will remained inside of the LSC. The Town Hall had two roman pillars that were eight inches in diameter. Each pillar had the same designs.

  There is a stone rooftop that is all flat and, it's made entirely of marble. To get into Town Hall, one would have to climb up fifteen stairs that were steep, with each stair being six to eight inches tall.

  The stairs are also made of marble. Tom swiftly climbed up the stairs.

  Within forty five seconds, he arrived at the heavy, solid golden doors.

  He walked into the Town Hall lobby, which looks afar from a mundane place. The lobby has gold countertops and, a floor that is made of granite. There's an extravagant fountain made of gold in the center of the lobby. The fountain is a five-tier fountain that has six hundred shining emeralds and rubies. The receptionist desk looked unique too. The receptionist desk is wooden with a fish tank on the bottom. This fish tank is not your ordinary one either. The fish tank has
baby black and white tip sharks inside as well as many plant like sea creatures. Rose, is the receptionist's name. She is a young woman with blonde hair and aquamarine colored eyes that are as crystal clear as the ocean.

  She's wearing a green dress. However, she didn't wear any lipstick. She has a nice voice of a young woman. She is on the busy phone trying to make appointments for people to meet the mayor of California County, New York. Tom walked up to the desk and, she looked up. She put the phone on hold and, asked Tom for his name.

  From there, he presented her with his full name. He then asked her the same question and, she then presented him with her full name.

  "What brings you here today?" asked Rose. "I have to present him with an alert regarding a situation about some potential foreign invaders from another planet", answered Tom. "You're crazy for doing this", replied the receptionist. "You're absurd for thinking that I am crazy. But, that's beside the point. Is the mayor available right now?

  asked Tom. The receptionist answered, "Yes." "How long will he come out?" asked Tom. "About two minutes", answered the receptionist. "Okay", replied Tom.

  "Do you want to listen to some music?" asked the receptionist.

  "Yeah", answered Tom. Classical stereotypical music was playing inside of the reception hall. The song that started playing in the hall was the Marriage of Figaro by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. "Is that Mozart?" asked Tom. "I don't know", answered the receptionist. After listening to the song for one minute and thirty-seconds, the mayor started to walk into the room. He is a heavyset, potbellied man. He stands at five feet two inches tall, and is wearing a tuxedo with a tie and six inch tall and five inch wide hat. He had a typical male voice.
