Dear Mom and Dad,

I have finally reached Mars! I am so happy that I am one of the youngest

people to ever go up into space. I have seen so many interesting things

flying up here and now that I’m here its time to have fun! You guys will

never believe this but I have found a foot print of a 3 toed creature and we

are now looking for the creature that could have left these mysterious foot

prints. We have been following these astonishing footprints for over 1 hour

and we still have not found anything yet. It has been another month and

now we know what it is. Other life has been living on this planet since the

1800’s and their life span is about 1000 more years. We do not know how

dangerous these creatures are, but now we are going to find out. These

mysterious creatures A.K.A aliens are very dangerous! They have weapons

that freeze anyone or anything for millions of years. No one is getting any

closer now that we know how serious and risky it is. When the aliens have

gone to go and collect their so-called “food’ which is really just space rocks,

we have gone to observe their cave. On the walls we see a picture of earth,

a picture of their space freezing ray gun, and a picture of aliens on our

planet earth. They are making a plan to attack earth and takeover! Luckily

they have one space freezing ray left behind. Those aliens can’t fool us!

We also found a “obey ray” this weapon makes you do whatever the

person controlling you says. We will now test it out on one of the sleeping

aliens inside. When we did it they did the exact opposite! Now that we

know that the so-called “obey ray” has failed, we will now test out the

“freeze ray”. We tested it out on the aliens cave, and it completely works!

The aliens are coming back any time now and they will NOT be able to hurt

any of the incredible N.A.S.A astronauts. We have weapons also have a

rocket ship that we can fly out of at Any time. Never mind! Oh no! These

aliens have out numbered us! We must get off of this planet to be safe!

Worse! They have their own ship too! They will be coming towards earth

anytime now! Be prepared! Hide! Be Safe!
