Chapter 1
Arriving on the moon
The most up to date European spaceship landed on the bumpy surface of the moon with a big loud thump. The three bold astronauts breathed a sigh of relief as they had landed safely.
Crystal closed down the engine controls. She then made sure all the technical equipment was off. Crystal, Starlight and Diamond started talking to Earth on the radio communication. Everyone congratulated them on a smooth landing and hoped they would have a successful mission and get home safely. Crystal moved over to the door and slowly made her way outside to investigate. The surface of the moon was gray and dusty. It felt cold and eerie. Crystal felt like someone was watching her but there was no one to be seen. All around her it was empty and quiet.
Crystal returned to the spaceship and told Diamond and Starlight that the moon was spooky and creepy but Starlight and Diamond didn't believe her. All of a sudden they heard a mysterious clunking noise.
Chapter 2
A Strange Noise in Space
"What was that?", yelped Starlight in panic. The astronauts turned quickly and looked at each other with confusion.
Bang! Smash! Crash!
The strange noises were repeated. Nothing could be seen inside so it must of have been coming from the outside. Starlight and Diamond lumbered ungainly over to the port hole and peered through the aperture.
"What? There's nothing there", puzzled Starlight.
I definitely heard something", cried Crystal.
Then a dull clagning clatter was heard by the exit door nest to Crystal, she spun round and unfortunatley her elbow accidently knocked the red lever that opened the door. It slowly swung open.
To their horror, two horrible, green, gooey creatures slithered in through the gap.
"Arrgh!" shouted Crystal.
The three astronauts were shocked to see such ugly creatures entering their Space Craft.
Chapter 3
Crystal is Kidnapped
Starlight and Diamond froze to the spot for a moment it felt as if their feet had been glued to the base of the space ship, but then the adrenalin kicked in and they managed to escape.
Unfortunately Crystal did not get out because she was overcomed by Stupid and Stupider, who dragged her off, screaming. Starlight and Diamond were terrified to see their best friend disappear with these scary aliens. Would they ever see her alive again?
The two terrifying aliens lugged Crystal outside where Maniac was. Maniac yelled at the top of his voice "this is not enough food, fill me up". Maniac got very angry and his eyes began to flash red. Brawl with each other and forgot to keep an eye on their prisoner. Crystal saw that to escape and began to move back forwards the rocket. "Over" screeched Diamond, who had appeared at the door of the rocket.
The aliens stopped in their tracks and furious to see their prisoner. Stupid and Stupider started to ??? with Maniac shouting orders at them. Crystal arrived back and just in time slammed the door shut. Starlight fired up the rocket engines. The engines began to judder anmd with a loud fiery explosion the rocket took off for Earth. Back on the moon Maniac screamed at Stupid and Stupider as he saw his lunch disappear.
