Without opportunity
earths cleansing and the beginning of human pets
Aaron's POV:
Watching the aliens walk in filled me with disgust, worry and fear, sure some looked cool but knowing that any one of them could just take us, was a horrifying thought, I glanced at the girl with me and let out a shaky sigh, "so... Uh what's your name?" I asked, she gave a sad smile "Tria" she replied weakly, "um.. I'm Aaron" I said, I was trying my hardest to get rid of the fear in the cage which made the air tense, I fell back into watching the aliens, some seemed to play with some of the caged pets, as if to test temperament, of course I felt myself feeling pity for those creatures.
It felt like forever as aliens entered, and left, with the majority leaving with a new pet in tow. Tria looked unhappy, better then the other humans who seemed to be in a panic, which made sense as more aliens were inspecting and leaving with human pairs, I grabbed hold of Tria wanting the touch of another human to make me feel safe, as an alien peered into our cage, it looked the most normal, compared to the other aliens, it had dark skin, or was it scales? And had webbed 6 fingers on each hand, after a few minutes it left, only to be replaced by a very tall, very beefy alien who was grey in colour and had spiny looking hair which ran down its back and formed into a low hanging tail. After that alien had left and several others examined us, 2 of the dull yellow aliens came in, they were lean and had big eyes, they held us down as 2 more walked in and strapped a weird collar-harness onto us, pulling on the attached rope they dragged us out and to the entrance of the shop, the beefy alien stood, waiting, what could only be explained as a grin tore across his face, his flat teeth seeming horse like, somehow I had thought he would of had sharp teeth, he grabbed our leashes and began pulling us away, we struggled and tried to get out of the harnesses but they were strapped on so we were unable to undo them, there was no opportunity to escape, our new 'owner' was blabbering on in his language which was surprisingly soft for his size.
After placing us in his small space ship, it took off, at such speeds that Tria and I fainted.
Waking up, to its face was a scary experience even compared to what had happened to us so far, he, it? Picked us up and carried us into a spherical shaped house with what seemed to be furniture which was jelly like in appearance, it put us down and shut the door which seemed to vanish into the wall, it left us be, "what kind of pets.. Do you think they'll treat us like" asked Tria her voice exhausted, "what do you mean?" I asked confused "you know.. Like how cats have general freedom, and can do majority of what they please, dogs get smacked and scolded but loved and played with but have rules to follow, and horses are even more confined.. And hamsters and..." She was beginning to panic I had to stop her as she kept listing animals, "hey! Don't think like that... In the best case we could be free enough to be treated like cats OK and dogs receive kindness so just think positive" I reassured, pushing the same thoughts out of my own head.
Being able to have complete freedom of the house? Allowed us to explore, and figure out things, of course we were to scared to leave the room but we curiously had to touch the jelly furniture, it was firm but comfortable, which was a surprise.
We freaked and ducked into a corner as the alien walked in, it glanced at us and then walked out opening the door and shutting it, we sighed in relief watching the door in concern, it finally came back in with boxes stacked up in its hands, it put the boxes down and began pulling stuff out, some stuff was food, human food, and only then did I realise how hungry and thirsty I was, he pulled out a drinking fountain like tool which connected to a big water container, then came the more odd stuff, such as a crib like cage, a massive playpen and some other strange devices, it seemed to be speaking to us, and I could only stare horrified as the door opened and more of them came in.
