Alien Detention KABOOM!!! A spiraling spaceship with robotic aliens crash-landed into a big, brown, private school while school was in session. The crash made it feel like a strong earthquake shook the school. The school was destroyed. Fires were everywhere - and what remained was extremely disaster. The students’ names were Samuel, Rebecca, Priscilla, Leo and Sydney - and they were all sitting in detention with their teacher, Ms.Johnson.

They hid while the aliens began to investigate the location. CREEK!!! One of the aliens slowly opened the door to the room that the students were hiding in. …show more content…
