Bringing Home an Alien
Chapter One
They say that everything that exists in the present started with the big bang. Although, there is no concrete proof of the same! But, it has been assumed that the entire universe came into existence by an overwhelming bombardment of energy. It was darkness all over and then the massive force of light filled the infinite space. That was the commencement of time, the starting point of it all. Soon, human race came into existence and we started creating our own history.
Little did we know that parallel to our existence, there have been numerous worlds that existed in the infinite space! There have been millions of planets in other galaxies that comprise the outer space. Some of them are devoid of any kind of life, having such an unfavorable set of circumstances that no instance of life can ever exist on their land. While a few planets, like Earth, are nurtured by the sources of the universe. They have life and are developed by different races that exist on such planets.
Yalvok was not like any other planet in the universe. It was the home of the most advanced race in every galaxy that has ever existed in space. A special race, which was known as Taltics used to reside on that huge planet. They came into existence much before the creation of our galaxy and were centuries ahead in technological advancement as compared to our human race. They have bypassed several development techniques and were among one of the first races in the universe who successfully invented the teleporting mechanism. They had some of the most advanced gadgets that one can think of. They were able to stop time, go back in the past, head to their future and do everything in between. They were capable of traveling light years in just a matter of few seconds.
But with such tremendous advancement, they had to pay the price too. Just like humans, their revolution started centuries ago and they took leaps in the same. In order to fulfill their technological needs, they had to rely on their natural resources.
Yalvok was almost twice the size of the Earth when Taltics came into existence. It looked just like Earth and had almost the same kind of atmosphere which was suitable for Taltics to flourish and made them gain great heights in their technological advancement. Their industrial revolution started and they started draining their resources. Just like humans, they blindly started to cut their natural resources and utilized them to fulfill their needs.
With time, their natural resources started to diminish. They thought that they would think of an alternative, and they were able to create a few energy-efficient resources, but before they could realize the importance of their atmosphere, it was too late. The environment of Yalvok became extremely unfavorable. The entire existence of Taltics was one big question that no one could answer.
There were no natural resources to rely anymore. Their technology stood at the most advanced state, but with a limited energy source, they didn’t have any alternative left. The atmosphere has several adverse effects on the race too. Taltics were not able to flourish. The atmosphere made them hard to reproduce and no newborn child was able to survive the harsh environment.
They knew that they had to search for an alternative. After looking in the whole wide universe for some time, they shortlisted a few planets that had almost the same kind of environment as Yalvok, and decided to make one of those hand-picked planets as their new home.
But almost every planet that they selected had living habitats. They all were occupied by living organisms, a race of its own kind. Taltics had to make the tough decision. In order for their race to prosper and survive, they decided to diminish an entire race instead.

It was a beautiful Sunday morning and Eva decided to wake up an hour before the usual time. She checked her wall clock and realized that it was almost 6 in the morning. She
