As the light grows closer the group gathers in awe. You simply slowly creep to the back and step out of the light. This whole alien thing sounded cool, but once again you have seen enough films on the subject to be all that trusting. Plus in horror movies the slutty one goes first and as this group idea of a camp out involved finding aliens you’re pretty sure that would make you the slutty one.
The ship gets close enough to the ground and the light dims to a gentle setting… kind of like a regular light dimmer to help your imagination out a bit. A hatch opens near the bottom and stairs begin to slide out. As they touch ground a foot is seen exiting the darkness of the ship. A little green man as seen in so many renditions exits the ship slowly as he looks around for signs of movement. Seeing you he gives a nod and proceeds until he is standing on the forest floor. As he takes one step away from the stairs lights flash on from all over the forest. The nerdy campers drop to the ground in fright as armed humans pile into the area. They shoot tethers at the ship to keep it on the ground and pin down the little green man.
You stand around looking as to what is going on until a well dressed man approaches you with his hand extended. “Good job agent bear,” he bellows over all the noise. This just puts one of those “what the fuck,” plot twist faces on as you shake the man’s hand. He goes on to tell you that two years ago you originally received a signal that the aliens were coming to earth to go through with a large scale alien drug deal. They placed you in the forest undercover knowing you would blend in and make sure the deal didn’t go down. But along the way you became so involved with your character that you forgot all that. “And even though you didn’t know who you are, you managed to stop the deal from happening and assist in capturing one of the largest alien drug dealers this side of the Milky Way.”
Here take a moment, because that may be a lot to process I know. “So this was all some alien drug sting operation?” You ask still pretty confused. “That’s right and now your job here is done.” The man replied. “Now what’s say you take some time off before you come back to the office? You earned it.” You simply nod and start to walk back into the forest not really knowing what was going on. As you leave clapping is heard from all the armed men congratulating you on the job you apparently did so well.
By the time you make it back to your cave everything starts to come back. You are an ivy grad who finished at the top of your class and after years of service you were recruited in to a top secret branch of the world government who answers to no one. So before you even make it back inside you leave the forest and take the first flight out to Bermuda, because hell you’ve earned a vacation.
The end
