The moment he had dreaded being back
from six months tour of duty
though it had been hard felt more secure
with comrades on the battleground
was privy to information aliens were here
infiltrating his country’s population
numbers critical certain an invasion force
intel received from reliable source!
The harsh reality it was his own home city
where the largest concentration
had been recently reported was assigned
to a covert unit to seek and destroy
soon would be engaged in the campaign
as it was humanities survival
this would spiral into a deadly final clash
when forever into oblivion crash!
One fact was hard to swallow identification
until now was impossible to detect
fully integrating with the human population
their DNA sequence almost matching
being why there had been no prior warning
of the extent of the quiet invasion
as this species not part of the known races
stored in the classified data bases!
The military units were based in a school
on the edge of the city limit
they waited for their direct orders to enter
each issued with special goggles
told the only way you could tell the enemy
adding to the dangerous mission
within hours planes arrived for air support
their objective this enemy to thwart!
Had little time for any apprehension to build
explosions shook their positions
aliens had made the first devastating strike
with their advanced technology
the orders came swiftly now no turning back
into a war with a devious foe
a vicious enemy had never before engaged
or on such a theatre of war waged!
With their added vision they could identify
the shape shifter’s real form
adding to the raging fires and total carnage
his team were slaughtered
disintegrating into dust as they charged
his mind focused on his family
safe in one of the underground fortifications
hidden below the cities foundations!
He did not look back as into the abyss he went!
