Chapter 4 - Chapter 4~Where am i?

On a cold night in the desolate town of Erlangsheng, A mysterious golden hole opened up and spat out a humanoid creature then disappeared. No one around notices this strange phenomenon and continued on with their businesses.

On the ground, a person awoke slowly and confused. This person was Amelie.

Awakening, I got up from the ground still in shock from the events of the previous five minutes. The lasting I remembered was being pulled through a small hole and then losing consciousness. Looking around, I noticed that the town was like a ghost town.

' I have a feeling I'm not in my hometown anymore ' i thought nervously.

I started walking around and hiding from anyone I met. For some reason, my instincts were telling me to stay away from the open. So I followed it. Hiding in back alleys and behind trash cans, I made my way across town.

'Wow, I'm surprised I haven't accidentally come across anyone yet'

However, I spoke too soon.

A hand came out from the darkness and wrapped around my mouth. Surprised, I started to struggle against the person but he or she was too strong. The person pulled me back into the dark alley and lead me to a green dumpster. Using one hand to hold my mouth they used their other hand to push the dumpster aside.

Behind it, there was a small grey door that blended into the surrounding grey walls. The person pushed open the door and dragged me inside. I fell and hit the floor but I wasn't injured because there was a brown fluffy carpet on the floor. About to shout, the man shushed me and I obeyed for some illogical reason. The man put his head against the door and listened. I stayed quiet and observed him.

He wore a grey jacket with a black t-shirt inside accompanied by black jeans and black boots, all of which have seen better days. He looked to be about in his early 40s. After seemingly not hearing anything outside, he turned to me with a stern but confused face.

" What were you doing out in the open kid? Don't you know how dangerous it is?!"

I sat there wordlessly while he admonished me.

I didn't know how to answer him. I didn't know where I was or how I got here. But I reckon if I told him a golden light transported me here he'd carry to the nearest mental facility.

No.

I couldn't tell him anything. Might as well wing it...

About a minute later he takes a breath and pauses.

"Actually sir, I don't know where I am or who I am. I just woke up in an alleyway a little while from here." I lied innocently.

He watched me shocked and in disbelief.

" What?"

" I'm telling the truth, I'm not sure what is going on and I don't remember anything."

The man sat back holding his head, he stayed silent for a few minutes then lifted his head and stared directly at me.

" You don't remember anything?"

I nodded.

" About 2 years ago...an alien civilization called the 'Nimmea' invaded earth. Their purpose...was to capture all the human women and impregnate them with their spawn.

The Nimmeans females are in short supply and us humans have a very large percent of similar DNA structure as they do, which was why they choose earth."

As I listened, I couldn't be more shocked.

'Earth was invaded!?'

My jaw hung open at every sentence he relayed.

It seems that in the first year, 3/4 of the females on earth have been taken to the airships above the clouds, including his wife and daughter.

Any remaining females have gone into hiding. Which was why he was surprised when he saw me exposed with not a clue lurking behind a dumpster.
