Anne was studying alone at home and suddenly she heard a knock on her door. Thinking her
parents were returning, she went to open the door immediately.

Suddenly, a tall and dark figure forced the door open and entered her house. Anne couldn’t
believe her eyes as there was a seven-foot alien who stood before her. He had only one eye and he

was wearing an armour like a Roman soldier. Before she could open her mouth, the alien gripped
her arm and put a finger on its lips. It closed the door and scanned around the house. Anne was

flabbergasted and her heart was beating faster than ever.

Outside her house, there was a noisy commotion. To her terror, she saw more aliens through the
window. She struggled to run away but the alien was so strong and it held her tightly. It dragged

her into the room and hid her in the wardrobe. She could see the other aliens entering her house
and fighting with the Roman-like alien through the crack. They fought fearlessly. Out of the blue, an

alien suddenly opened the wardrobe and found Anne. It dragged her outside and she screamed. The
Roman-like alien heard her and came to her rescue.

Then she heard a gunfire, the aliens were distracted and they ran out of the house. The Roman-

like alien took her to flight immediately. They ran and ran until they reached the edge of the jungle.
Anne was exhausted and she couldn’t run anymore. So she fell unconscious.

When Anne regained her consciousness, she was lying on a hospital bed. Her parents told her
that they found her lying at the roadside when they arrived home. Anne was not sure if she was

dreaming or if she had really met the alien. She was really puzzled but she learnt that she should
never open the door to just anyone who comes to her house next time.
