WIP Wednesday - Warriors of Risnar: Worlds Away


Meeting an alien, who meets an aggressive member of Earth:

“Anyway, now that you doubt your sanity, prepare for things to get worse. Another bunch of aliens called the Monsuda are preparing to invade Earth. They’ll take it too, killing and enslaving our people in the process.”

“Wait, we really are being invaded?”

“Not yet. But it’s coming if we don’t do something to stop them.” Arga turned from his examination of swamp plants to answer her.

And once more, her gaze went to his crotch. Come on, Baumer, pull it together. Stop watching for surprise party favors to jump out.

She gazed in a safe direction, at Thompson. “I’ve gone crazy. Funny, that. The bullshit with my parents and the cult didn’t do it; watching people blow themselves and others to kingdom come didn’t do it; destroying my military career didn’t do it; but being fired today finally pitched me over the edge. It’s interesting, don’t you think?”

Thompson squeezed her shoulder comfortingly. “Focus, Boom-Boom. I know the situation is out there, but” 

She was cut off by crashing from the grasses. Arga uttered a startled noise and staggered. An alligator clung to his calf, wriggling and chewing, as if fighting to find a better grip.

No release date set.
