Invader! (Prologue)

Of all the things I’d have thought possible, this was by FAR, not one of them. “There are many possibilities in the ever-expanding universe,” was something I’d been told time and time again by various science teachers I’ve had for a good portion of my childhood. However, even they would be as dumbfounded as I was when the implausible, the improbable, and the outright crazy happened...

“Aaaand, done!” I said as I finished up an online game on my Xbox 360. “…whelp, I’m bored. What to do now…? Maybe I’ll just take a walk to kill time… or maybe aimlessly surf the internet until somethin' catches my eye…”

As I pondered what I would do to spend rest of the already-late afternoon, I noticed a dim, purplish gleam forming in the center of my room.

“What the hell…?” I asked myself in wonder. “Man, that’s what I get for starin’ at this TV screen for so long…” I muttered as I took off my glasses to wipe them with my shirt.

Instead, the gleam became a bright purple glow, as the swirling winds became stronger and an electric crackling sound started to come from the glow. I shielded my eyes as the glow became too bright for me to stare at directly.

*Crackle Crackle*

*Whish*

I was beginning to wonder if there was a hurricane about to form in my room, when *BOOM!* a loud, thunder-like crashing sound was made. I hurriedly ducked for cover behind my bed as the purple light quickly brightened and expanded, making the area flash a blinding white. After a few seconds, the wind, light, and crackling noises dissipated. I peeked from behind the side of my bed farthest away from the explosion to find my jaw almost dislocating in shock at what I laid my eyes on…
