Years before I lost the augur of the universe, I sent a Na'ahn from Infiyond to visit a dentist on
Earth. Many humans will certainly be shocked by this for Na'ahns are not common in your land.
Incredulity may soon be put to rest for the dentist was in the same amount of doubt. Aside from
the fact that I sent a Na'ahn to Earth in the first place, that he did not look like a traditional
member of his species added to the dentist's confusion. He ambled around, a tall, marten-like
creature with velvety skin rather than fur. He walked on his hind legs, which were bowed
awkwardly out. Unlike most other Na'ahns, his eyes would glow a lavender color, but only when
it was pitch black. This was Cronon Yudan, the mastermind behind

You will not hear any more from me for a very long time. I leave the telling of
Cronon's accomplishments to the dentist.
People know me as Sakara Piuta, a rough'n'tumble woman with a heart for the military.
However, my own dreams and desires cannot be fulfilled. I am from one of the poorest classes
and this leaves me with few employment opportunities. Dentistry was my choice; rather, the
teaching of dental hygiene. Now, normally this job of mine is far less than exciting as no one
these days cares about dental hygiene, being the 40th century, blasted medical technology. My
life has been far more interesting since I first met Cronon, and I have been able to fulfill my
desires to join a militaristic occupation even though the castes do not approve of such a thing.
It was a few years ago when my life was radically changed. I was taking my usual lunch
break, exactly at 1231. I find that eating at an "odd" time like that helps with my digestion. I
walked out to the foyer like I normally do every day. No one was around and there were some
gazers that I needed to catch up on, my favorite being The Authoritative Alien Army Almanac. I
sat down next to the table and picked up the gazer just to skim quickly over it in case there

I think that it's just a bunch of garbage. We were meant to eat real food, not
slurp down a tasteless potion. They all drink their meal in twenty seconds or less and go on
with their day. It's such a waste of time, not spending a meal with another person just to talk.
People from as late as the 32nd century would be appalled by us.
I was eating and scanning through the displays of my reading choice when a Na'ahn walked in
through the front door of the office. I snapped my head up when I heard the grinding of the
gears of the door, something that needs WD-400, and saw him. Na'ahns are very important
aliens throughout the universe, being renowned for their lawyering skills. They are incredibly
respected and have immensely improved the living conditions of the known galaxy. They
developed a system that would create maximum efficiency in the hearing and judgment of
various cases. They rarely come to Earth, though. Old prejudices against lawyers are still
strongly seated in most people's minds. But that's the problem of other people on Earth,
I like to relax when I eat my lunch and not in a hurry because if you do eat fast then it can have a big effect on your
took in another breath of fresh air and relax. Looking around the room now, I
Great! To make sure, I looked down, even though I knew we would still be obligated to go around. Yup, no foot. We walked to the back in silence and I opened the door for Lus and let her walk in first.
I sighed as I opened the door to my room shutting it softly and dropping my bag onto the floor.
Over my summer break, I volunteered at General Dentistry in Wilson NC. For some people, this would not be as meaningful as volunteering at a soup kitchen or something of those sorts, but to me, it was just as meaningful. Most people do not consider their teeth to be an important part of their body and do not feel the need to take proper care of them until their teeth no longer function properly or they have little to no teeth left in their mouth. People are often very sad when they realize how poor their teeth look or that they can no longer eat the foods that they love. While at General Dentistry I was able to help a diverse range of people in many ways. For those who had badly decayed, acing teeth, we were able to eliminate their problem
I moved on calling people after an awkward pause. Minutes later I began my lecture and the patients sat down. I watched the young woman sit tensely, picking the chair in the very
Lunch- 1:42pm at home: Late lunch after grocery shopping. Drank 2 glass of water. Feel so full. Now, study time.
My door slowly opened, I got out of the car and walked through the door on my right and the lady at the front desk directed me to my office.
I found my seat on the opposite side of the room. Everyone at my table was talking
By the time I arrived back to my apartment for lunch, I was shaking. I was ready to eat whatever I could grab, and I needed to consume food as soon as possible. Lunch would consist of ramen noodles and more Pepsi. Of course, there was always room for desert. There were always brownies or cookies around to snack on. I usually worked in the evening, and dinner came out of a vending machine. Naturally, I paired my dinner with yet another can of sugary fizzy drink.
I push back away from the table and make my way back to my room. I could feel all the eyes on me as I left the room especially David 's. Having a look down at my watch it was only 8:47pm, which meant it wasn 't long now until I saw Joseph. I need to figure out a way I would be able to sneak out without getting caught. As face as I could I race back up to my room and starting getting thing organised. I grab a bag from my wardrobe packing a blanket so we could sit on in the barn and also a extra hoodie if it 's cold outside. While I 'm zipping up the bags there was a knock on my door.
“What it was, whether beast or human being, one could not, at first sight, tell: it grovelled, seemingly, on all fours; it snatched and growled like some strange wild animal: but it was covered with clothing, and a quantity of dark, grizzled hair, wild as a mane, hid its head and face.”
doorways. I was going to do this by picking the locks on one of them.
I set my belongings down on the table and begin to take out a book I 'm in the middle of. I was so absorbed in the story, that I didn 't see the person sneak up behind me.
Half an hour later, I heard a knock at the office door. I took a deep breath in. And out.
