My nickname is Ax. I cannot tell you my last name because it is top secret due to the mission of saving my planet. I was home eating my dinner and my General called me. I was going on a mission to save my planet, Zinasory; Zinasory was a very hot planet, covered with green beautiful trees. It has no water. My language is Zory. I was flying in Zero space and came out in the galaxy of earth. There were three F14 Tomcats in the air and, of course, they did chase me because I had a weird looking ship. One thing I have to tell you my technology was way ahead of earth so I could not let them catch me. I had to go round the earth three times to catch up enough speed to go though the atmosphere. When they hit my engine it felt like an endless fall. I was surprised that they did not come after me. When I finally thought I hit the ground it was water and I had to swim for shore. There were no people so I was on an island alone. I was lost. I needed to return to Zinasory. The island was surrounded by water and had beautiful green trees and grass. It was a very weird looking planet. I found hogs, birds and fish in the sea. I was feeling very tired. I gathered wood to make a fire to keep me warm through the night.

The next day the sun was high in the sky when I awoke. I needed food to eat. I used a sharp stick to catch fish, but the fish was not good for me so I tried to catch a hog using the stick that I had for the fish and it worked. First I clicked two stones together to start a fire. Then I cut up the hog with my handy knife and placed it on the fire to cook. After breakfast I swam out to my ship to get some supplies. My ship was in good condition. I found some rope in my ship to pull it in on the beach to repair my ship. Hopefully, my radio will still work, I said to myself and it did. I contacted my planet and sent a message for someone to come and rescue me. One day had passed and I was still on the island in earth's galaxy. My planet was billions of miles away in light years. I was homesick and I sure did not like being lost. It was fine on earth, but I still don't want to live here. In three earth days my ship finally came and rescued me. I told them about what I had found. We ate lunch before we left and ate the remains of the hog. It tasted very delicious and my fellow colleagues agreed. We destroyed my ship, buried the ashes from the fire, hog and fish bones and everything we used. Then we had to set time back to before I came to earth and departed back to Zinasory. SHELDON E.
