Accept+her+challenge

"I accept your challenge, Moon Goddess," you tell her. "My space dog named Kat and I will search all over for your sacred moon stick." You hurry past her before she can respond to your words. Keeping your eyes peeled and senses alert, you realize you haven't the slightest clue what you are looking for. No one but the Moon Goddess herself knows what this moon stick looks like. This is an impossible mission. You turn to your trusty companion in hope for some answers. "Kat, how are we going to get ourselves out of this one?" Your space dog barks and trots toward a glowing green mass of figures in the distance. "What do you thing that is, boy?" you ask. As the unknown figures inch closer their identity becomes clear.

"Aliens!" you gasp. Your partner passes you your weapon assuming they mean harm. The aliens, noticing you are armed, put their hands up and proclaim, "We come in peace. We are here to help you and your interesting space creature. We know where the moon stick is." "Oh, thank you. Thank you so much," you say in relief. The kind Aliens pointed out the crater where the moon stick was. Kat hopped in the crater in retrieved the stick with ease. He pranced around the edge to show it off and everyone cheered. Now, all that was left was for you to deliver the stick to the Moon Goddess.

You race back in the direction of the Moon Goddesses residency with the stick clutched tightly between your fingers. It was your key to life. You see the goddess in the distance and sigh in relief knowing your life is saved. "I have retrieved your precious moon stick, Moon Goddess!" you call out to her in triumph. "Now, I can stay here safely. I have proven myself to you, Goddess." You fall to your knees before her feet in gratitude as she takes the moon stick from your grasp. "Thank you for returning my possession to me, Earthling, but that is the only use you are to me. I can't have you on my home," she replies calmly. With one touch of her finger tip to your forehead, she vaporizes you in an instant. What did you die for? Intruding on the moon, not something noble, like fighting for your planet. But, it's too late now.
