Alright, well, I have been pressed for time lately, so this may end abrubty...
Oh well, I gotta find another job.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was the longest coldest day of the year, for miles around all you could see was snow. As I gazed into the endless beauty of the tundra a black speck appeared. As the time passed the little blob grew bigger. Eventually you could make out a shape, at first it was indistinguishable but then you could make out a being, it was small, about 4'11 with a gigantic head. The arms looked short and thin, and the legs closely resembled the arms in their appearance, I was utterly disgusted. The figure was about 100 yards away and I ran, I grabbed my rifle, I had to protect my house and all in it; luckily my wife and kids were going to be gone for another week. It seemed that the figure never stopped or got tired, but it kept on moving. I slowly approached my fence, lowering my barrel to a chain on the fence to steady my aim. I pulled the scope up to my eye; the second that it took focus was one of the most fearful seconds of my life. The figure became clear, its eyes were large and oval shaped, they had to be the darkest black I have ever seen.
The second I saw that face my adrenaline started pumping and without thought I yelled "STOP RIGHT NOW!" The being pursued his path stopping for nothing, so I yelled again "IF YOU DON'T STOP RIGHT NOW I WILL BE FORCED TO FIRE".
That thing was determined, and I was at the point where logic no longer ruled my mind but pure animal instinct took over. Just as I felt my heart beat I pulled the trigger, "click"; "shit, I knew I loaded it." I whispered under my breath.
I pulled the bolt back and sure enough, my trusty old 7.62mm round was there, so I let the bolt back forward hoping that it would work this time. "Click" the gun, taunted me once more. I thought this would never happen this was my prized possession, I had always dreamed of having a PSG-1. I threw my rifle down, pulled out my now antiquated Desert Eagle, I checked the magazine and sure enough a full clip, 10 rounds of killing power, so I cocked the gun and lined this thing in my sights. It took a few seconds but when I had its head in my sights and I pulled the trigger, "click, click, click, click". I couldn't believe it; this gun didn't work either.
I had to pull out my knife, as I did so I prepared myself for hand-to-hand combat and accepted the fact that I may die. But out of nowhere there came this sharp piercing sound and the being was gone, then another sharp piercing sound and a creature was standing next to me, he almost looked human, if it wasn't for his purple eyes and pointy ears I'd think he was an average human.
Then all of a sudden silence, I looked at him and he looked at me, there was a period of silence, I can't tell how long it was, but it was amazing, it seemed as if his mind and my mind had become one. I knew all of his thoughts and past experiences and him of mine.
Then during this euphoric experience he spoke, he uttered the words "Don't be afraid, I came here to rid the people that tried to kill you."
To this day I don't know why I trusted him, but it was the right thing to do. After a short period of time I asked him to stay with me for the week, because if wanted to help me he would have to fit in.
