The soldier sat on duty in the guard hut
trying to stay awake
certainly would be in trouble if caught
this a classified base
where many strange items were stored
he was safe they assured!
A large object had been delivered recently
covered in tarpaulin sheets
by hooded figures in unmarked uniforms
in the night brought it in
remembering seeing lights moving about
taught not to feel doubt!
He knew it was another craft from the stars
this was not the first delivered
to this covert military facility hidden here
out in the barren desert
far away from the public’s inquisitive stare
and media who were well aware!
Alone with only his thoughts for company
daring not to speculate
what was far below the ground in storage
or the research being done
he was a private in the military police unit
to protect at all costs his remit!
Tonight had a gut feeling it would not be quiet
there had been much activity
preparing for the first perimeter patrol an alert
received an urgent message
on the radio the main fence had been breached
for his side arm he reached!
As he prepared to go the rest of the team arrived
in their pick up trucks
just as an explosion came from the base offices
that lead to the facility
glowing objects zoomed in from the dark skies
the action a complete surprise!
Within one minute reached the reported section
the ground on fire but no tracks
even more military personnel now assembled
word came of ferocious action
in the huge laboratories and hangars beneath
the innocent sprawling heath!
As they raced towards the unknown enemy
frantic voices warned stay back
as a massive explosion ripped the site apart
brining them to sudden stop
from out of the flames pulsating orbs flew
making a spectacular view.
They were not fired on which made no sense
an odd sort of alien invasion
even though missiles were quickly deployed
though none actually hit
the soldier wondered what had just happened
was this a start or the end?
Instead of fighting their task became rescue
and evacuating survivors
followed by a major clamp down of the site
information was very sparse
but he heard it was a breakout from within
of creatures with grey skin!
What secrets was he part of hiding here
this was the first time he felt fear!
