It was a dark and stormy night. The whole of Greentown was covered by dark clouds.
Christopher was returning home. It started raining cats and dogs.
Suddenly he saw a U.F.O. appearing from the clouds above. In no time it landed on the road.
Three aliens came out. Chris was astonished as he could understand their language. Their plan is to
take all the three away from earth. Not wasting a moment, Chris called his friends. Those aliens
pointed out to a tree. An eerie blue light shot out from their hands making the tree vanish. Soon,
Chris’s friends arrived. They tried to scare those aliens by throwing stones, but in vain.
Luckily, Mr. Goon, the fat inspector of the area arrived. With a frightened look on his face,
he shot at those aliens. One of them pointed his finger at Mr. Goon. To everyone’s amazement, Mr.
Goon became as thin as a stick. Everybody laughed. Suddenly, Anna, Chris’s friend, run towards
them, shouting at the top of her shrill voice. Those aliens got the fright of their lives and vanished
along with their spaceship. The kids were delighted. They had saved their planet. Mr. Goon was left
fiddling with his pants.
