Hi my name's Hector, when I was fourteen I saved my hometown of Kobbler from a one hundred real life aliens! Now I know that sounds crazy or hard to believe but it's one hundred percent truth and today I'm going to tell you the story of how I did it. It was August of 1950 and I was on my way to the theatre to meet up with my friends. Nine blocks later I was chatting it up with my friends Albert, and Susie at the entrance of The Canon Theatre, we were about to see my first scary movie ever! The movie was supposed to seem so real that one person actually died from watching it, I was sort of scared but I was also feeling brave since the girl that I liked Susie was with me. I had a crush on her since grade one but never had the guts to tell her, but anyways back to the story. We had just bought our popcorn and sat down in our seats, the lights dimmed and the screen lit up. Halfway through the film I had to get up and use the washroom, on my to the washroom I was stopped by a tall man in sweats. He started yelling at me to get out and run back home, then he started telling me that more than one person actually died in the last showing of this movie! The truth is that everyone in the entire theatre died that evening, it was just a huge cover-up by the military, but this showing is supposed to be much worse! The aliens come out of the screen and can never be put back in, last time the military got lucky because there was only one alien which they trapped and contained.

Five minutes later we started running back to our separate houses but as I passed my favorite pizzeria I noticed the sky darken, I was the only person or thing outside. The wind picked up and things started blowing all around me, as I looked back at the theatre I noticed enormous creatures running out of the doors. Being the brave hero that I am, I ran towards the enormous creatures and decided to fight them. I grabbed a deserted shopping cart and started pushing it, going faster and faster and as I got closer to them I jumped into the cart and barreled one of them down. Then I got out of the cart, pulled off the dead aliens leg and started beating his friend with it.
