Date: 10 November 2020. It was 9 o clock morning of Friday in the east of Bangladesh. On the other hand me , I was having a peaceful sleep, dreaming of many things like several acheivemts and other stuffs and suddenly a "Ting Tong Ting Tong" sound from my phone(Alarm) ruined the beautiful dream I was experiencing. Normally people wake up and turn their Alarm off and starts his day by getting freshed and other stuffs but me , I am the total opposite. I did switch off my alarm and slept again to continue watching that dream somehow. But for everything , there is options and choices and solutions. My beautiful sweet Mom after noticing me sleeping for a long time with no plan of waking up, she came to me and gave me a lovely slap that printed her fingers red on my face?. PAIN!! ?. I am sure my mom has the ability to be the champion of slap competition ?. After that lovely slap, she told me to get fresh and to rush for breakfast. As much I love her and respect her , I do have the same amount of fear and so I rushed. After getting freshed , at first I grabbed the phone to check f*******: and w******p as usual and then I went to the table to take the cup of tea and grab some biscuits. When I was heading to my room with my phone in my hand, the cup of tea slipped from my hand and after coming in contact with the ground it shattered into pieces. And then the immediate thought I got was, "Oh s**t, My Mom's gonna kill me now ?". Then surprisingly , the electricity went off and everyone started to say repeatedly , "Current gese , current gese". Load Shedding is a famous and also most alarming in Bangladesh. So we were familiar and also habitat to it. On the other hand , Mom was scolding me for being careless and much addicted to the phone. And after a while the electricity came and we were relieved. My Father got relieved as well because his Tv is working again. It was Friday . I had no mood for studies or for completing my Home works. I went close to dad and sitting in the couch, I started watching Tv with Dad. We both love watching News channels. I dont know why I stay pumped up everytime about latest News. But the news were boring, so my father switched to Geographical Wild life channel. I dont know why? But me and my dear dad were watching how a tiger hunts or captures a deer. As soon as the tiger was about to reach close to the deer, the channel disappeared on the Tv and after couple of seconds , a guy appeared on the screen saying," Alert! Four mystical enormous ship which is to be known as UFO, crossed the atmosphere of the earth and soon this objects will be visible to everyone. I rushed and got out to see what's happening and from where and how this freaking things came. And after a while it was visible to all. It was spherical and beyblade look alike humangous type of flying object. But who was caring about the freaking details. " What will they do", that was roaming in everyone's mind. Of course its one of the nature of humans that they get scared seeing something phenomenally weird. I heard my sister calling me to come home. My body was moving towards the direction of the door of my house, but my head was bend in the opposite direction looking above. I mean like "Wow". I always have an obsession about space and astrophysics. I had a mix emotion of being happy to see an UFO and also sad and scared. I entered the house and saw everyone gathered infront of the Tv. That guy was uttering, "We request everyone to stay home and stay inside. I repeat, STAY HOME AND STAY INSIDE". The news about this was all over. Media went crazy. Every news channel for the increasement of TRP ratings, started to cover up the news and updates about the Unidentified objects. Those four UFO's were visible to everyone in the earth. Everyone was freaking out. I felt like my soul was leaving my body. My face got warm out of fear and nervousness. The winter season was going on but I was sweating as if I was in the Earth crust or maybe near sun. One simple damn question, "What they are Up to?"
Dad started to change the channels and stopped at ATN News. The News Reporter said that NASA and space X are trying their best to establish a communication with the UFO's. I am a overthinker. I got several questions after hearing the statement , like "How can we talk with them. Damn sure that they dont even know our language. Do they even What language is? What if they use brain signals to communicate?Wait,,,,do they even have brain?". But I think that mattered the most at that time was, "Are we going to stay alive?". You might say ," Why everyone is tensed? Maybe they are here to make peace". I can answer that. Humans do posses the ability of thinking positively and negatively. But , humans also prefer thinking negative in every thing. And sometime we name that negative thought a "Precaution".
After a while, all the news channels blacked out. I was getting up to check the dish antenna, but suddenly something unlike I have seen in my life appeared on the screen and on every channel. Definitely not a human being. It was an Alien. Its face was Oval shaped with 3 eyes aligned and blue-purple skin colour. I felt like I got paralyzed. I couldn't move an inch. And slowly my hands started to shake. My family members were facing the thing. They got a scared baby face. That Alien with a cold voice stated, " Creatures of the earth, specifically humans. We are Zodiacs the guardians of the Planets. And our goal is simple and that is to vanish the threat's from the planets and revive it all over again to bring the complete balance in the Galaxy. And its a honour and a big acheivement for us to meet you humans and also I am so happy to have the solid chance of eradicating you from the existence".........
Okay…... It's normal and there was no reason to panic. Who am I lying to? Those words, coming from the cold voice, were definitely frightening. Eradicating us from the existence? Is that some kind of inner-Alien joke? I was low-key impressed and happy that they could at least speak English. Of course, they must have used some kind of tech to translate their language to ours. But I guess nobody cared about that! My sister ran to her room immediately. I didn't understand why? Was she scared? Or maybe she was just trying to get on her phone to share this in her social media stories? My Mom and Dad were slow in understanding English. They were scared and pissed off from the very beginning when they saw that _creepy_ Alien. They were asking me to translate that freaking speech for them. Well I on the other hand, got lost in some other realm. Or to be more specific, I got lost in the realm of 'fear'. I mean, like, yeah. What would you expect from me? Claps!!!!? By this time, the UFOs had a change in their structure. Some pointy sort of machines emerged out from inside of the UFOs. And within seconds, that pointy machines turned bright and it created a bubble sort of thing on its pointy top. It seemed like the bubbles contained a huge amount of energy… of some type. It definitely wasn't a green signal to be relaxed. After a couple of minutes, those bubbles turned into a big shape. The entire world started panicking. Then something unexpected happened. The animals on the street and the domestic ones got captured by some sort of flying cage and those cages started to float and flow in the direction of those UFOs. There were lots of cages. I mean billions of cages were visible in the clear sky. The news channels were broadcasting this weird exposition from all over the world. As for the exposition, some kind of portals opened around the world, sucking those cages within and then those portals suddenly vanished. Immediately after, the UFOs surrounding the entire earth, released the energy bubbles onto the earth surface. And then BOOM!! Everything including the cities, villages and other places where there was any sign of life, were totally blown up! Every building and household got demolished. There was no trace of humans left alive. 7.6 Billion people got smashed in a blink of an eye.
Ouch ouch, It hurts dammit", I muttered to myself. I somehow removed the brick pieces which were laying on me. OH MY RABB! I was bleeding excessively. I couldn't get up. In fact, I couldn't even feel my legs. My bones broke due to the heavy bricks falling. And I think I've been impaled in the stomach by a steel rod. Life was slowly draining out of me as I was bleeding. I looked around, finding no one. My sight was blurring. I need to go to the hospital. Who am I kidding? I can't even move. I doubt if the hospitals survived the onslaught. Those goofy-looking otherworldly creatures destroyed everything. Breathing was becoming difficult by the second. Is this my end? Is this how the humanity will end?
Through my dizzying vision, I saw an alien appearing before me. No, not only one. Rather, a large group was gathered around me. I don't even have the energy to be afraid. I felt like I was being lifted in the air by something. I can't say for sure, but it looked like some type of drone. A laser-like thing was scanning me. The other aliens were looking elsewhere. I guess they're looking for any survivors. The alien that stood by me was looking at me.
"Why?" I whispered, "What have we done to you?"
A cold robotic voice replied, "The truth behind this leads to the liberation."
"What Liberation? How can-" I coughed up blood. Yet I continued, "- wiping out a whole race be termed as liberation?"
The alien replied, "We are all born with a definite purpose. There are countless creatures in the Universe. The evils are roaming around the galaxies and harming the existence of the other creatures. Our goal is to eliminate all evil's existence from the Universe".
I asked, "From what perspective do we look evil to you? Also, we couldn't even reach Mars. So how we are roaming around the galaxies and the harming other creatures? Before you arrival, we thought we were alone in the Universe."
The alien averted its gaze and looked above and the surroundings. And with deep voice it shouted, "EARTH!"and added, "4000 earth-years ago when we visited this planet, It was beautiful. All the creatures marveled its beauty. Everybody wondered the source of its beauty. Different life forms lived peacefully. The diversity was iconic, and and the ecosystem was perfect. But now that beauty got totally spoiled because of you humans."
Wait, I'm supposed to die by now, judging by the red life-juice I've lost. How am I being alive for so long?
"Am I dead?" I asked nobody in particular.
"No, you're in a stasis-bubble."
"What's that?"
"A vessel to preserve life. It will keep you stable for sometime, until we finish scanning you."
Let me get this straight - I'm being kept alive for research purposes. And these aliens know us for a long time. I don't know how much time I have remaining.
"So you came here to punish us for what we did to the planet?"
"No we're here to liberate earth. That's the mission and our purpose."
Isn't that the same thing?
"Earth is the only planet which is habitable and most suitable for us Humans. And we were living in comfort and peace. How can you say you've brought peace while destroying everything?"
That Alien looked at me closer and said, "How can war, m******e, greed, inequality, molestation, suicides resemble peace? You lived a life without even realizing what's happening around you and your back. In the last 3500 years of human civilization, humans have fought each other for 3270 years. Millions were killed because of it. The cities got demolished by the deadly weapons you human yourselves created. No other race in the universe creates deadly weapons to harm their own race, except you. You humans created partiality, rasism, fascism and many more. You couldn't even bring equality in between both genders. And when you tried to upbring the importance of a gender, you totally lost your belief, care on other gender and continuously blamed them without any evidence just because of your evil mindset. You all used each others weakness to beat each other, without helping each other overcome that. Extreme greed among you made you ruthless. You didn't hesitate to cheat your own kinds to pile up materials, rich goods and cash notes. You humans even created partiality between the people of different religions. And not only that, some of you even used faith and religions to earn wealth. The hospitals and medical centres whoch was supposed to give treatment to the other humans, are used as a tool to become wealthy and fluent. The laws and constitutions you made to give people the justice and their rights, you used those laws to break others harmony and peace. You used Law and order not to stop crime, but to add more crime in the society. You've turned your society into a society where those with more cash notes gets the most importance and opportunities. You made your society a society where people with bright skin colour and beauty are given more opportunities. You made your society a society where nudity is liberating, but covering is not liberating and its completely against the human will. You converted the socialization process into a spoiling process. People give more importance to wealth than their families. And the worst of all, the way you humans treated the other creatures in the earth was limitlessly abominable. Because of your hunting, many animals became extinct. Many more are on the verge of extinction. And for that, we at first ensured the safety of the other creatures and then completed our mission. You humans were already dead mentally. You were the very reason of your own suffering. We're only here to remove your physical existence, as well as to put an end to your sufferings."
That's some hardcore lecture I have ever listened in my life. I'm impressed that they've done this much research on us. Nevertheless, I couldn't agree less with what this creature said. It's the bitter truth, and we constantly run away from accepting it.
"But there were innocent humans too. Why didn't you just kill the bad humans?"
The alien replied, "Don't make me laugh, human. No living human was found innocent. Each and everyone of you were involved in one type of crime or another. 98% of you were polluting the earth on a daily basis. The forest and the rivers, the ones that were your best ally for your survival, were the beauty and strength of earth. Due to deforestation and your factories, the amount of carbons increased in the atmosphere, weakening the earth in many ways. Besides, humans, what importance did you actually gave to the innocents of your kind? You don't even know who were the innocents? They're made to who fight against poverty and hunger everyday. They're killed when they stood up against evil. So we had to eradicate the entire human race. We wiped every single human out so that no other race can be influenced by your evil ways. No one will ever learn about harming the own race and destroying the mother planet. Wiping the human race completely gives the earth freedom. The earth will be healed soon at your absence. It will return to its original state of beauty once again. The other life forms will be able to live in peace and harmony once again. There will be no misery and destruction."
"But I didn't do anything."
"And you collectively did nothing to preserve the earth. You were given this beautiful planet to protect and sustain. But you humans failed to protect this gift you got from the Creator. That's why you don't deserve to live."
The alien took out a type of device and pointed it towards my forehead. It was a g*n. And then the alien said, "Wake Up Badar."
Soon enough a plasma beam made a hole in my forhead. Everything became dark.
"TING TONG , TING TONG", my eyes were flung open. I stood up immediately. I was terribly concerned. I checked my surroundings. Everyone was good. My family members were alive. I looked through the window, everything was normal in the neighborhood. Oh man, everything was just a bad dream. I'm really happy to see nothing happened in real. My mom started to call me loudly to get up and to get fresh. Well, I got freshed, did the basic stuffs as usual. I normally can't remember much about the dreams I see. But the last dream was vivid in my mind. I rushed to the kitchen to get myself a cup of tea, which I badly needed to relax. I was checking the phone on one hand, and was carriying the cup of tea on the other hand. I was going to the living room where my dad was watching TV. And the cup of tea slipped from my hand and was shattered on the ground. At the same exact moment, the electricity went off. Everyone started saying, "Current gese, current gese." The incidents seemed familiar to me. And then I remembered that the similar incidents took place in my dream. I felt my heart throbbing in fear. What if the next thing happened in my dreams happens in reality, too?
THE END
