Zzzt! Crash! Suddenly my bright lamp crashed against the wall and shattered to pieces onto my new rug. I had woken up because of this loud sound. Now the time was 12 o clock midnight in my living room. I saw a mysterious bump under my new rug I just bought yesterday. I listened closely and heard little screams and shouts. When I touched the bump, it felt like a gushy liquidy material. Eee...I turned my back and thought there was nothing. Eee... Eee.. I heard the strange sound even louder! I turned again but saw nothing. Eee... Eee...I spun around the very last time and there it was in front of me a scary creature! The creature was green. It had 3 eyes. I dropped my mouth open. What could this be? I kept it for a few weeks. Two weeks past and it happened again. Crazy and unlucky things happened such as when he hid my library book and I had to pay a fine for it. I found a cage for him. I must do something I thought. I studied every book. Suddenly, I  came to a stop. On the 160th page it talked about a certain alien. The book said it would give you bad luck and it is most likely under rugs. Happily, it said you could call an alien spaceship and it can pick your alien up. I noticed that my alien was the one in the book. I called the number. Right above my house there was a huge light surrounding me. The bright light hurt my eyes. The door bell rang and there were 2 creatures dressed up in black. I handed the cage to them. They turned and got in and stairs folded down and they took off. The aliens were something I never believed in but  now I became a believer. I never forgot that wonderful  surprising day. The next morning I went to my neighbors house and uh oh there was a bump under the rug!
