Don't Bully Aliens

You see that gay little twerp Willy. You tell your gang to follow you; that you're getting a big batch of pot tonight and Will's gonna pay for you. As you approach him you see all of his assurance leave his eyes. He cowers as you order him to pay.

Willy denies you saying some stupid lie: "You don't want to hurt me." You don't give a shit. You tell your boys to hold him. He looks up and his mouth moves but no words come out.

Above your head you hear a little noise, like a machine starting up but quieter and constant. You look up, you can't see anything. There is a slight disturbance in the air above the alley. He tells you that it's your last chance. You ask "Or what?" He nods. You tell your boys "Get the money." The split second they raise their fists there is a light. Pure light. You wake up, standing in the alley, your gang on the ground and you hear a voice coming from inside your head: Tomorrow you will wake up and find yourself in a similar predicament.

You shrug off the warning and steal Pot from one of the junkies. You remember what the kid said and you are suddenly afraid of sleep. You smoke to take it off of your mind. Sleep comes abnormally fast.

It's bright and early, your mother is yelling at you to wake up. She sounds different. You can't find anything in your room, you assume you moved it when you were high. You finally find something to wear and leave to school. You get there, walking up to your gang and hear "Look who came to see us! None other than the great Willy Rochwester!"

You tell them to shut up, they disregard your request. You don't know whats going on so you run. As your running you feel different, you decide this must be a dream so you go home to get some rest.

You wake up late afternoon. School is out. You head into an alley to think things over You can't figure out whats going on. You hear some steps out on the street, you look up. You see your mirror image staring right into your eyes. You feel all assurance of reality leave your body. You remember what the real Willy did and you look up. Nothing is there. You hear that voice in your head again: I gave you a chance.
