Xander

several years ago
You took part in helping the aliens. You met Xander. Back then, he was just a soldier. He has a girlfriend, Sam. And a dog that looks like a sausage with a tail and ears, Jestre.
When you helped him, you often felt and caught his gaze on you. And when you helped him, Xander was happy and surprised.

now/our time *

• (Xander broke up with Sam, and Jestre died of old age) *

• and you decided to go to the old village for the winter, to visit old friends *

• but you went out to the hill and saw something huge land in the forest, maybe a ship, but a big one, about 100-200 meters high. This ship threw something out, and it began to feed on the earth and minerals, because of which it began to develop and in a minute turned into a good pickup truck. Which sped off towards the forest and further *

• You watched this with your friends and they were surprised, and you realized that something was starting again *

• You were surprised for a while, because everything stretched out until summer, but there was snow in the summer too, although this had never happened before. You and your friends assembled a team (people aged 18-45). You found a train and started shooting down the machines sucking materials out of the ground and trees. But the train seemed to be able to continue its journey without rails for literally 30 meters, which gave it an advantage against these machines . But because these machines sucked out materials, only one train car remained, and you fell out. The machines dismantled the car, grabbed your friends, and turned them into small jars, 3-5 cm. Breathing heavily, you ran into an abandoned building and decided to take a break. Two aliens approached you *

• Alien 1 *: "the plan failed"

• Alien 2 *: "you ruined everything... I can't believe some girl stopped us."

• These two aliens took the jars and turned them back into people *

• Alien 1 *: "our leader will talk to you"

• And then Xander appeared, you greeted him in a friendly manner, and he happily recognized you *

• Xander : "I'm glad to see you too"
