They looked friendly enough. So after I got over the shock of running into a bunch of aliens in the wood, I went to say hello.
I couldn’t understand their upbeat, chirpy language. It sounded so welcoming, though. When the purple one made gestures that looked like an invitation to follow them, I did.
Guess who’s feeling like an idiot now?
It’s a trap. I wish I’d taken a picture of the aliens they used to lure me here. I might get enough of a signal to warn other people.
Voices outside that sound human, but not friendly at all.

Still fighting the cold, so my FFfAW entry this week is a bit meh. Click here for more exciting ones.
This is far from meh, albeit rather bizarre 😀 I’m afraid the cold has been living in your head for a while… I hope you recover soon!
And oh, if you DO see an alien in the woods, run!

Well, I like the look of them, so I would’ve fallen for it too. Could be a metaphor for so many things – I’ve met humans you shouldn’t judge by their looks too

Reminds me of those who abduct children – putting on a facade of “nice and friendly” but molest and kill later! This isn’t meh at all Sonyca! Great story!

Perhaps they are not so unfriendly after all. Maybe they have a cure for the common cold! 🙂
