16:29 Days on Mars |
Day 15
Here's what the alien said:
"Privklesles bmsseyutti." We, of course, did not understand anything. I think you, too, would not understand anything in our place. The alien spoke again: "You’re better off." “Better,” Steven said quietly. “It looks like a robot,” Jason's voice sounded in the headphones, “serves the power plant.” I only nodded in response. The robot or not the robot, but to meet an alien creature is a big surprise. Even here on Phobos. The alien tried to speak a third time: "You better leave Phobos. In a day, the Arnigans will arrive and destroy you". Yes, I will describe how the stranger looked. He was about 1.5 cm tall. The body is narrow. One half was translucent, the second glowed with white light. The face was divided into parts and the left side was stuck in the left shoulder. The voice was normal and sounded in our headphones. We looked at each other. We did not know who had to answer him. I nodded to Steven. Like, come on, make contact. "In one day?" Steven asked, "If we only could fly away. But these as you called them …" “Arnigans,” I prompted. “Yeah, they,” Steven went on to say, “have they already flown out? Is this your Phobos? We are here by chance. Do not think anything. We flew by, and then the beam shot us down. By the way we have our own planet. Earth. Over there, - Steven somewhere waved his hand to the side. I clearly saw his face sweat with drops of tension. This is understandable, not every day there is a chance to communicate with a creature from another planet. “Our one day mean a thousand your years,” the creature explained, “our time flows differently.” We all sighed in relief at once. Well, if in a thousand years, then by that time we will definitely not be on Phobos or Mars. I noticed that Paul began to wink at me. What he wanted to say by this I did not understand. I also wanted to talk to the alien, but Kelly screamed and grabbed her hands on her stomach. "What? What?" Steven turned to her. "A belly got very sick. Probably the days have begun," Kelly explained blushing. "What else days?" Steven did not understand. “Critical,” Kelly said quietly. "Damn, you chose very good time. Here I come in contact with the alien, but you with your days. What could not wait?" "Could not!" Kelly exclaimed, "They do not ask when to come, and they do not care who you come into contact with. And in general, why you constantly yell at me!" "What, who is yelling at you?" Paul was surprised. Nobody do. Don't say nonsense." While Paul was saying that an incredible thing happened. The stranger glowed with a red light and fell apart. To say that we were surprised is to say nothing. We were hit on the spot. "What was it?" Steven asked stunned. Jason's alarmed voice was heard in the headphones: "Get out of Phobos immediately! A strange ship is approaching you!" What can I say. I don’t know how others, but I was scared. Even my hands trembled. We quickly activated our spacesuits and left Phobos. So we got the first contact with an extraterrestrial being. And here you are telling me ... Okay, then I'll tell you what happened next.
