W4: "An Alien Has Landed in My Backyard"

 It was a quiet night, when I heard a strange noise outside. 

With full of curiosity, I went to check it out what was the big sound about. 

Guess what?! I found a small, shiny spaceship in my backyard. 

My heart raced as I approached it. 

Every steps that I stepped forward, I was thinking about UFO, Star War, Aliens. All the creatures appeared on television now were coming in front of me!!!!

Will there any creature going to pop out and eat out my brains? As I was thinking all this weird stuff, I had already stop in front of the spaceship.

Suddenly, a tiny creature stepped out. It was about three feet tall, with a round head and big, four bright green eyes.

Its skin was a soft purple, dotted with glowing spots. The alien looked scared and lost.

“Hey there,” I said softly, kneeling down. “It’s okay. I won’t hurt you.” 

The alien turned its head after hearing my sound and reached out a hand, it seems like it didn't scared of me. Its finger was smaller and shorter than me and just have four fingers on it. Although my heart still fulfilled of surprised and spooky, I still try to reach out to it.

When we touched, I felt a warm spark of understanding between us. That's weird but amazing at the same time. I realized that despite the language barrier, we could communicate through gestures and emotions.
I named the alien “Nina.” As we couldn’t speak the same language, but we still could communicate through gestures and feelings. 

Nina pointed to the spacecraft, then to the sky, its eyes filled with some tears. I understood that it wanted to return home but was lost and afraid. 

I felt sympathy, and I was just a teenager, but I couldn’t abandon this creature to the unknown. 

But soon, I heard a loud noise. A car pulled up, and men in dark suits got out. 

They were strangers to me, but my first sense told me that these guys would be a threat to Nina. My heart raced and the first thought in my mind was I couldn’t let them take my new friend.

“Quick! We have to hide!” I whispered, and we crouched behind some bushes. 

The men searched the area but eventually left, frustrated. I knew I had to help Nina get back home before they returned. I couldn't even think about what they would do to Nina if it got caught.

That night, I took Nina back to the spot in the woods where the spaceship was hidden. 

“This is it,” I said, feeling sad. “You have to go home.”

Nina nodded, its eyes shining with gratitude. We shared a final moment, and I promised to remember our friendship even though it was just a short memory, but still...cherish memory.

Nina climbed into the spaceship, and I watched as it powered up.
Just then, the car returned. “They’re back!” I shouted. 

“You have to go now!” Nina looked at me one last time, then pressed a button. The ship shot into the sky, leaving a trail of light.

They arrived just as Nina disappeared. “What are you doing here?” one of them asked. I took a deep breath and said, “I was just stargazing.”
They seemed suspicious but eventually left. I felt relieved. Nina was safe, and I had done the right thing.
In the days that followed, I something still think of Nina and the outer space. I felt inspired and connected to the universe. Every night, I looked up at the stars, knowing that Nina was out there, exploring the cosmos. 

I would always cherish the time we spent together and the lessons I learned from my alien friend.
