For years, man has been trying to make contact with aliens but for one boy, he will have an interaction that he will never forget.

Chapter One

It was July 3, 1947. An alien spaceship was headed towards Earth. Ecco, an alien from the Planet Fouton was flying the spaceship. Ecco was singing along to dance music. All of a sudden, a red flashing alarm went off.

Oh no!!!! Ecco looked out the window. He saw a large comet approaching the spaceship. Ecco tried to steer the ship out of the path of the comet.

The comet hit the alien spaceship and it began to shake and smoke as it descended towards Earth.

Ecco tried to do whatever he could to control the ship. He realized that he was in trouble and grabbed the microphone.

Mayday!! Mayday!! Ecco yelled in a panic.

An alien mother spaceship that monitored all of the aliens was flying through space. There was a computer with crop circle pictures on it off to the side of the main monitoring screen.

Each alien received a metallic medallion with a crop circle symbol on it when they were born which recorded everything they did. The crop circle pictures and the alien names scrolled on the monitor screen as the aliens used their medallion.

Orion and Lupus, two aliens that monitored the aliens were in the mother spaceship hovering in space.

Mother ship to Ecco, what's wrong?! Orion asked.

A meteor just hit my ship! Ecco yelled.

Hold on! We’re trying to locate you! Orion pushed a few buttons and a graph projection of the galaxy appeared on a flat holographic plane.

Ecco’s spaceship entered Earth’s atmosphere and rocketed through the night sky, spiraling as it descended skimming the tops of some mountains, spiraling out into a vast desert plain and crashed into the sand.

All was still. Nearby on a dirt road was a rickety sign that read:

Roswell, New Mexico. Population 22,000

Orion tried to contact the ship. Ecco, are you there?!

Ecco didn't answer.

Orion tried again. Ecco?! Orion turned to Lupus. Lupus, did you locate Ecco?!

The graph projection showed that the alien spaceship was on planet Earth.

Yeah, it's too late to send help. Lupus said.

What do you mean it's too late? Where is he?, Orion asked.

He landed on planet Earth. He is now in the hands of the humans. Lupus said.

Orion and Lupus bowed their heads down.

Man, he was a good soldier too. Why does it always happen to the good ones? Orion asked.

I don't know. Lupus said.

Ecco’s spaceship could be seen sticking out of the ground from the bright moonlight that shined throughout the desert at Bottomless Lakes State Park in New Mexico.

Chapter Two

Five black SUV’s left the Air Force Base in Roswell, New Mexico and drove out to Bottomless Lakes State Park.

The five black SUV’s surrounded the alien spaceship. Men dressed in black exited the vehicles and approached the spaceship with caution. All of a sudden, the door opened and a cloud of smoke came out. The men backed up cautiously. When the smoke cleared, they saw Ecco lying in the seat unconscious. One of the men in black, Leroy Wilkes, looked at Ecco closely.

Man, if I didn’t know any better, I’d swear that was my wife when she wakes up in the morning. Leroy said.

The other men laughed.

James Walker, the head chief turned to the men. Knock it off. Leroy, call in the boys to clean this up.

Yes sir. Leroy said trying not to laugh. Leroy got on his cell phone and made a call.

Two fire trucks and an ambulance drove out to the crash site from the Air Force Base. A Dalmatian dog had his head sticking out of the fire truck window with his tongue hanging out. The flashing red lights on the vehicles lit up the desert night.

The fire trucks and an ambulance arrived at the crash site. Fire Chief Kennish looked inside the ship and found Ecco dead.

Okay men, don't leave any evidence behind! Fire Chief Kennish said.

Yes sir! the firemen replied.

The firemen took Ecco out of the alien spaceship and placed him on a stretcher and put him in the ambulance. As the ambulance pulled away, a flatbed tow truck pulled up.

Earl Parker, a 40 year old thin tall blonde male with freckles with a gap between his front teeth got out of the truck. He was wearing a cowboy shirt and blue jeans with worn sneakers.

Earl saw the spaceship. Now there’s one fine looking piece of machinery!

Can you handle it without breaking anything? Fire Chief Kennish asked.

Shoot, I lift my wife all the time. She’s a big woman and she still ain’t broke. Earl said with a smile.

Earl hooked up the tow truck to the alien spaceship and loaded it onto the flatbed truck. They took the alien spaceship and Ecco back to the Air Force Base.

Back at the Air Force Base, the door closed on the hangar as they brought Ecco inside and began to prepare him for an autopsy.

Chapter Three

It was now the present day. Planet Earth could be seen from space. The alien mother spaceship was hovering in space.

Lupus and Orion were sitting at the monitor station playing Laser Chess.

I’m gonna beat you this time. Lupus said.

Give it your best shot. Orion said as he looked for his next move. I’m gonna move my hypercube for the attack." Orion moved his hypercube piece.

Lupus yelled, No, not the hypercube!

Orion moved his hypercube piece and landed on Lupus’s block piece. The block piece moved to a random place on the
