"I think it's my middle school's cafeteria food." I say. It starts bubbleing, and as each bubble pops, a horrible stench wafts through the room.

"Oh god." I hold my nose, I start to feel a little queasy, "I'm not squeamish most of the time.  But in this case..." I can't keep anything down and I wind up blowing chow over the floor.

Suddenly, the arm from before extends down and attempts to pry the goo off the floor. "If we grab onto the arm, maybe it'll pull us out." I say. Tears come to my eyes as my own lunch begins to rise in my throat. "We...we b..better hurry."

I spit the nasty taste of vomit out of my mouth, "You read my mind!" I say as I grab hold of the arm and pull myself up.

I follow suit. The arm pulls both of us up into a small room with a large door on the left side. A smallish octopus Alien operates the arm. It turns to us and... gurgles in alarm. "Alimons uruuuuk daaax! Alimons uruuuuk daaax!"

"SHUT UP!" I yell as I tackle the octopus.

The octopus, which has a very weak body, is crushed. "Let's get out of here before someone comes to see what all the noise was about." I say, turning towards the door.

"Hmm, did you notice that the only word that seemed to be spoken in english was "Alimon"?" I say to Chris.

"You're right. I wonder why.... wait, do you suppose we're Alimons?!" I say.

"I think that's what they turned us into!" my eyes widen, "Those bastards!"

"Well, we better get out of here so we can repay them." I say. I look at the door. " I think this is pressure activated..." I press one of my feet onto a panel in the center of the door. It opens up and I fall through and into a heap.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Suddenly, the shipe shakes voilently. "What the hell...?" The ship shakes once more. an octopus creature, carrying a large container of the clear fluid, heads through a door. I make a leap for him, but the door closes and something can be heard blasting off. "I think something's wrong with the ship." I look around. "But I think these are escape pods."

OOC: More people can still join, there's another ship over earth.

(could I bring in a General that works in Area 51 that the army that works there found the alien ship and opened fire on it with high speed pressure cannons?)

OOC: Actully, this ship happens to be several thousands miles above earth. The other ship is crusing above the northern part of North America.

(the cannon idea is something that they used with some alien technology so it can fire into space for a short distance, if aimed right it could fire at a arch angle. but that getting ahead of myself. I could create ideas out of nothing. but it up to you if this is ok since it your RPG.

here is profile of the General though.

Name: Corwell
Rank: general of Area 51
Age: 49
Sex: male
Attitude: cold and straight to the point, the unknown is seen as a threat to the home country of USA. Defending it against all threats. Take action and ask later
Personality: Strong minded, straight thinking, strong command voice and very serious for most of the time. Taking things into his own hands if required.)

OOC: Sorry, but the only tech that humans have is tech we have today. So no-go on the base or the cannons.

(ok no problem. could have high atomshpere jets that could fire missiles towards space. if that is ok. I know there is a few of those around. USA has a few that I heard about since I watched a program about fight jets once. I come up with the ideas and ask if that ok before doing anything.

if not ok, I will try to think how to get the general into the story, but for now I am off now for the night. goodnight)
