My name is Nick O'Hara, i'm 19 and I've witnessed 16 ufo landings, 4 sightings and 10 encounters and when i say encounters i mean I've literally seen aliens standing before me. Like a drunk aunt who's telling you how much she loves you, they aren't pretty. Now they aren't green and big black eyes. They comes in many shapes and sizes and in their case, bigger isn't usually better. My name is Nick O'Hara and this is the part where i regret ever getting into this type of business.
"Try pulling on the rope" Alex Yossarian, my best friend whispers to me with his charming British accent. I wasn't from New England neither was he. We're from New York but this job has us constantly traveling. We've known each other since 5th grade and been friends since. I take a deep breath and tugged the rope once then twice.
"Damn Ugaflareins (U-Go-Flare-Re-Ins) i never trusted those orange bastards" Alex was the type to shoot first, ask later where i was the type to look first and step later. "Well we broke rule number 13" I reminded my dumb friend "i know 'Never Let An Alien Walk Behind You" Your the smart one, you should of been reminding me" I tugged the rope, pulling his arms toward me, knowing it was painful for him. "Ow!"
"Be honest, what were you thinking of?" I couldn't see it but i felt his smile. I usually felt sick in my stomach when he smiled because a stupid plan usually followed it. "Nothing" right then i knew it was that French chick we met in DC yesterday. I sighed and rolled my eyes when the sound of distance metal doors opening.
"They're coming" i stated the obvious, Alex tugged the rope which hurt me so i tugged it back then he tugged it toward him and i tugged it toward me. Why were we hurting each other when we should be thinking up something...i don't know and before we knew it the rope broke, releasing us from out chair bound torture.
"Quick hide" now i realized we were in a room that was empty, there was no place to hide but Alex leaned against the wall as did i near the entrance of the door when the doors come sliding open. I see their orange skin from where i stood. Skinny arms like bones, they were short with white eyes with a small pupil, they had no lips so their teeth were always exposed. I saw Alex jump from where he stood and Superman punch the hell out of one of them. I jumped down and one spotted me so i quickly kicked him in the face, like a soccer ball, he went flying across the room.
"RUN!" Alex screamed, we ran down the corridor and busted out of the near windows which weren't big enough and i felt the cold metal kick my leg as we hit the warm desert ground. We both look at the UFO before us. It was shaped as a triangle with glowing orange lights.
"Think they'll chase us?" Suddenly the UFO jumps up from the ground and takes off into the sky in a single second. "Does that answer your question?"

-The Next Day-
I made a quick recovery like i always do when we do something stupid, got up early mainly because the hotel we were staying at looked as if rats secretly hid here. I got donuts and some sprite because coffee still hasn't grown on us yet. I walked back into the hotel only to see Alex on the laptop, last time i found him like this he was masturbating to German Asian porn which has yet to make sense to me but this time he was looking at photos of recent alien sightings and followed by some videos of Youtube. I sighed a sweet sigh secretly in my head. We both were growing guys and when we needed to handle 'business' we did that in private.
"What are you looking at?" I asked like i didn't already see from where i stood, placing the drink and pink box of donuts on the table.
"Did you know there's been at least 3 reports of weather changes and several UFO sightings?"
"And that means what?"
"Well 2 of these sightings are the same but on both i noticed something different so i went back and looked at all sightings with sudden weather patterns changing and i found this..."
He turned the laptop to me, It was a picture of half a UFO in the sky with a purple ring around it. When i saw half, i mean it's a full UFO but suddenly half of the UFO is gone. I grew interested as i stared at the photo.
"That's creepy and cool. What is it?"
"Well if i'm right and please believe me when i say this...I think it's a portal" I stared at him, it wasn't the stare of stupidity or the stare of him being plain out crazy...it was just a random stare. If this stare had words it would be 'Umm what?'
"Like to another realm or dimension? because if you say yes then this friendship is over"
"Actually!" Damn it! i knew he say that. I usually love when i'm right but this...this is just tiring.
"Your saying UFO's travel via portal from another realm? i thought we settled that they're from space"
"Well researchers and scientists have been looking for life outside our planet and they've found nothing. Wouldn't make sense if they weren't even in our system and in another?"
"You had alot of time to think about this haven't you? I think i prefer you looking at Asian German Porn"
"HEY! I was just looking!" I threw my hands up and took a seat on the bed next to him, i grabbed the sprite and took a drink straight from the bottle and put it down and wiped my mouth. I felt him staring at me but i didn't want to look at him.
"You know i'm right...just say it" I felt his smile and i felt my anger growing. I stood up in a suddenly burst.
"And if you are? and if aliens are from another realm...you know what that means right? you know that means we're just farther away from finding her" I looked down, i knew he didn't think that far. I stared down at his short brown hair, he looked back at me with those brown eyes, i saw the scar on his left cheek that went down, little past his jaw which brought back terrible memories, the same scar that brought me here. On this trip with Alex.
"We'll find your mom...even if she's in another dimension"
"I know, it's just makes everything feel..." He interrupted
"Pointless...i know" We didn't say much after that, what else was there to say? He turned the computer off and did little things like eat and sleep. He went out for a walk while i stayed inside, on the laptop. I'm not sure if we both needed another case because our minds were millions of miles away...or realms.
"Hey!" I looked up at him as he stood at the open doorway. I closed the laptop and hopped out of bed.
"What is it?"
I saw the annoyance on his face followed by frustration. He stepped aside and there he stood. My cousin Jonathan Adams stood behind Alex. Jon wore a black leather jack with a red flannel underneath and jeans.
"Nick, you son of a b*tch. How've you been?" He came up to me and shook my hand and quickly gave me a hug....i hated hugs. My cousins were great people but....Alex, my best friend in the whole world...hated my cousins. Wait...did i just say Best friend in the whole world? oh god!
"Hey cousin, i'm great...how were you?"
"Can't complain"
"That's fantastic...how did you find us?" Alex wasn't really paranoid but he hated my cousin Jonathan so this was normal talk. Jonathan looked at Alex with a smug look.
"Alex...i thought we've discuss that i was smarter than you in...EVERY which way"
"Did you say something because i was looking at the face i wanna kick the hell out of!"
"So you admit your gay! that's great!" Before i knew it, they were in each other faces likes to wild dogs. I stood between them and broke them apart.
"Enough, gosh as if Thanksgiving dinner wasn't bad enough"
"Alex, I'll be at the diner...text me when this douche has left"
Alex walked off, Jonathan looked at me, feeling as if he won. He took a donut from the pink box.
"So i'm guessing you haven't told him yet?" I looked down and scratched the back of my head.
"No, not yet"
"Why not?" I looked back at him and the donut was gone, he was licking his fingers which kinda threw me off...where did that donut go?
"Just drop it, i'll tell him another time"
"It's just going to be harder when you actually tell him"
"I will i promise"
"Good" He took a seat and i took a seat on the bed.
"So what's up? find E.T yet?"
"We escaped from a UFO yesterday" He started laughing, excited
"Sweet...you gotta tell me about it" I smiled as i told him the story from beginning to end and added a few 'booms' and 'bangs' just to make it more awesome. i had him at the edge of his seat the whole time.
"Dude, that's awesome...god! you need to take me on your next adventure or case or whatever"
"Out of the question...not only would Alex and you be at it the whole time but it's dangerous."
"Why else do you think i'm here?"
"You left college and your mom and dad didn't approve so you ran off and decided to join us? How was that?"
"Wow! right on the spot"
"You need to go back...have a life i never got to have"
"I can't go back to that place"
"Why?" I saw something in his eyes, something i'm not use to seeing in Alex or anyone elses. I saw fear, something scared him and he thought i would understand.
"I told you my secret, tell me yours"
"I can't...it's just"
"You know i know your past and we both know what your capable of...tell me" I almost had him until that one scared thought ruined it. He stood up and marched off.
"This was a stupid idea"
"Fine..." I had no other choice, damn it! "Your in"
"What?" He stood and looked at me
"You can come along, Alex will probably kill me but i can deal with him"
"Thank you!" He hugged me again...this is going to be hard to get use to. "You won't regret this"
"Oh really?, cause i already am" He released me and put his game face on.
"Right so...what's our next case?" I grabbed my coat
"Convincing Alex not to commit murder!" We left the place, heading toward Alex, someone who believed in other realms while Jonathan joined us, someone who knew my secret and held one of his own. I think i'm just going to leave it at that...
