CHAPTER ONE: "A PERFECT WORLD"

"Mr President!" An attendant yelled out, rushing past the workers and guards

"Mr President!" He yelled out again, until he finally made it towards the office of the President

"Hm? Can't you see I'm enjoying my me time?" He replied

On his hand was a VR Headset, The kind of ones where you forget where you are

The man paused

"Uhh.. We're in a situation right now!"

He handed him a phone, and on it was a video already playing, he played it and showed a catastrophic event where aliens roamed around a city and destroyed buildings

"W-What? Is this some sort of joke? Ai? or some ploy to get us to prepare our defenses!"

"N-No! Mr President this is real! I--"

A rumble paused their moment, and the President looked out at his window: "What is th--?"
Suddenly, a giant spaceship crashed into the office-- immediately killing the two of them and anyone nearby. Citizens saw it and immediately what came from the giant spaceship were hordes of aliens 

The remaining workers immediately scattered: "He's dead! The president's dead!"

Tears were shared, screams heard from the background while both of their lives stood there lifeless

A blue alien stepped off the ship, it had white clothes that looked like one of a nurses embedded into its skin, with 2 pockets on both of its hips

It walked towards the lifeless corpse, a robotic voice came out:

"We have landed, Earth." 

It grabbed a piece of debris and held it towards his eye: "A planet suitable for life."

A worker yelled out, asking: "W-What do you want with earth?!"

"Are you a Sonorosian?"

"A Soro-- What?? We're the ones in control here! What do you want with earth?!" He yelled out again, holding a gun towards the alien

It stood there, and pointed at him with his left hand and there was a bright flash of red light, and then just like that, he fell to his knees and died

"W-What is that?!"

"No! Please!"

"Get away from me!"

If that wasn't bad enough, they knew how to speak our language and knew how the human mind worked. Hiding was practically impossible towards a species that already knew how us humans functioned

I saw it first hand, I live in an apartment in a room that's far above.

I closed my television as soon as I saw the news and immediately puked, "There's no way this is happening!"

I opened my door towards my balcony and watched as Police and Military already hurdled all the survivors

I lived directly in the capital, where all the mayhem took place.

I paused and stepped back in the living room, I prepared a bag with all the necessities I could need

My father was a blade smith. Although scarce, the profession was handed down through generations-- it was meant to be passed onto me!

I grabbed a medium sword that was plastered on the wall and unsheathed it: "I never thought I'd be using this." And placed the holster around my back

That was when a giant monster blasted through my door, I froze.

I-It's not an alien.. It looks nothing like them.. It was black, had red eyes and had indescribable features, It had 3 arms and a mouth that could swallow you whole

"S-Sydney.." 

It knew my name? Whatever it was, it clearly knew how to speak and it was somehow after me!

I took a step back, and unsheathed my sword, but I was frightened. I shivered and couldn't even hold the blade properly

"I--"

Suddenly, an army soldier shot in emptied a full magazine in the chest and it fell down

"Is anyone here?! Sydney?!" The soldier asked, then he noticed my frightened expression

"Oh.. It's just you."

He took off his helmet and revealed that it was my next door neighbor, Nate Diaz

"I could say the same to you." I replied, almost disappointed

I added: "Anyways, What is that thing? It doesn't look like one of those 'aliens' they're talking about on the news. 
 
"How am I supposed to know?" He asked

He walked towards my balcony and looked outside: "It doesn't look like any of them are here.. yet. We should head out."

I paused, confused and irritated: "Head out?! With all those things crawling up towards us?!"

He facepalmed: "Doofus, Obviously. We don't have a choice, It's either stay here and get eaten or have a chance at surviving."

I grabbed a baseball cap my father had given me a long time ago and stared into it, I thought: "I hope you're still alive." and wore it

We walked outside the apartment room and encountered one of the aliens

I took a step back and held the sword, and Nate ran in front of me: "Step back! I got this!"

It stood still for a moment, and looked around

"You." It said, pointing towards Nate and I 

"Sonorosian, I will bring you in as test subjects."

Nate scoffed: "Great, First this and now we're encountering one of them. No! We're Humans! and if you don't tell us your intentions we're gonna kill you!"

Meanwhile, I measured the distance it was standing. I was sure I could pierce through the wall with the sword and directly beat the alien. But, if I fail Nate dies.

I slowly creeped back into my apartment and walked to where I thought the alien would be, outside I could hear Nate yelling at the alien

I took a step back and ran with all my might and it directly pierced through the wall-- I heard a sickening crunch

"I got it!" I yelled out

I ran back with the sword still in the wall 

I looked back and the alien was on the floor, bleeding out purple blood

He immediately pointed his hand towards us and we ran inside the room, a red flash followed and there wasn't any damage, but once we peaked our heads outside we saw it momentarily neutralized

"What is this?" He asked, limping on the floor and pointing towards the sword wedged into the wall

I chuckled: "You guys don't know what a sword is?"

Nate butt in: "Don't be friendly with it! Let's kill it!"

"W-Wait! It could be useful and we might know why it's out for humanity!"

Nate hesitated, glancing back at the limping alien

He knocked it out with the butt of his rifle and we dragged him inside of the room

"I hope you know what you're doing."

I pulled the sword back and barricaded the door

"Look at this!" Nate pointed out, holding a razor it had in one of its pockets

"A razor blade? They have those in space?" He added

"Idiot, ofcourse they do. But while we're at it--" I stopped, looking at the unconscious alien

"We'll have to take care of this."
