Terrence Dean Astleford AKA KNIGHTWARP

Prisoners
Apr 14, 2004

In a galaxy far away, an alien race was living. They had problems just like we do. There were criminals and others that were rich, middle income and poor. There even homeless aliens that had nowhere to go and no jobs available to them. They even had laws unto themselves. They had a government similar to ours where there was a big man who told the people what to do. They even paid a sort of proxy which in our words means taxes. The race was not happy after a few million years of living and the population getting a little out of hand.

But what could they do? After 2 million years, they had just barely realized that space travel was going to be needed and soon. The population on this planet was in the trillions, (good thing their planet was 5 times larger than Earth). So multiple scientists started making objects that would fly. Eventually they made a craft that could orbit their enormous planet. That is when they made satellites and before long this race had millions of them orbiting their planet.

About one thousand years later after all the research and successful launches this race had an ever growing problem with crime arose. The aliens were not happy. Proxies were at an all time high. Homeless aliens rose to a staggering 50%. Jobs were no longer available due to the robotic successes they had. As a result they replaced all factory workers with robots. Only the rich survived. The middle and lower class aliens were unemployed or homeless and they didn’t have programs for the poor or destitute. Crime was at a staggering climb as criminals seemed to come out of the woodwork.

Now this race had a problem. What could they do to relieve the ever growing problems in their society? They created programs but that did not work. They even tried giving money away but then the ones that couldn’t get it were complaining that it was a biased program. They had technology that could have made this planet heaven, but the government in its greed would suppress the knowledge, (kind of like here). Factories that had vested interests in certain products wouldn’t allow anyone to take away what they had by creating something that wouldn’t require them to keep producing their products, (kind of like here).

Pollution of their atmosphere was worse than ever as factories and sub-factories rose up at every corner. But they thrived on the pollution. Without it, they may have eventually died. So now they had to figure out how to get rid of the unwanted element on their planet, (kind of like here). Scientists were busily trying to make a ship that could house thousands if not millions of their prisoners for relocation. The prisons they had built were not plenty enough. The overcrowded facilities needed to be added on to but that was kind of costly. The aliens in charge knew that to save their planet they needed to ship the unwanteds off their planet.

They did succeed. The scientists created a ship that could house a hundred thousand aliens. They had star light drives that enabled them to go from one galaxy to the next. The aliens in charge figured they needed at least 10,000 of these ships to completely rid their planet of the… well what they call slackers and undesirables. So once they got the first ship done and had multiple factories working to get the others complete, they launched with a full load of prisoners. The location was an unpopulated planet somewhere far enough away that they wouldn’t have to worry about any kind of retaliation.

The destination was the third planet from the sun in a system they had no interest in. They brainwashed the prisoners and wiped their minds clean. They launched and the ship entered the atmosphere of the planet 5 years later. The only reason it took so long was because they were trying to save money by going with the cheapest bidder. The cheapest bidder didn’t include star drives. Just meager old frusion drives that takes longer to get to the intended destination. Once the ship entered the atmosphere it would drop low enough to drop it’s payload on the desired planet and then return to leave these prisoners no technology.

Now they were stuck. These are what we called cavemen. We actually came from another planet and were actually an alien race. And we were convicts.

Millions of years later the alien race seems to be having the same problem. Crime is at an all time high. Homeless people are being shoved aside for the wealthy. Government programs are for the minority people, (I still haven’t found the clause in the U.S. Constitution or The Bill of Rights where there ever was a minority people). Pollution is rampant in the world and population is getting a little out of hand. Hmmm… let’s think this over. If we keep going the way we are going, the government will eventually wise up and ship prisoners and unwanteds off the planet. Hey, maybe that’s why they are so eager to get to the moon again and to mars.

Maybe the moon will be the way station and the final destination will be mars. Hmmmm… sounds like something an alien race might think of. Let’s see, the wealthy are getting wealthier. The poor are getting poorer. The middle class is getting pushed to become wealthy or poor. Pollution is crazy and no one seems to care. No wonder we seem to have an abundance of UFO sightings. I think that maybe the aliens are going to take over once we have the proper pollution that suits them. Saves them money by invading an already polluted planet.

I guess we will just have to wait and see. So beware citizens of the world. We are aliens and the old government from home is just waiting to get rid of us once again. When you see the first shipment of people going to space, then you will know the cleansing process has begun. Just be forewarned and ask yourself this question. When are they going to find me undesirable and ship me out? Maybe you’re on the next ship.
