LOCATION: EARTH: YEAR: 2023
The Kenyan road from Nairobi City to Nyandarua county, the lady, Sara Maina is driving to her rural home, it's extremely late, around 2:37 AM. Moonlight sneaks through the clouds, Tall acacia trees line her roadside. Her pickup headlights cut through the darkness
INT CAR. NIGHT
Sara gets a call from her friend Liz. She thinks twice before picking but does so anyway. She pressed the button and puts her phone on speaker and places it on the passenger seat
Sara (tired)
Liz, I'm tired right now. I swear if Jack brings up the IVF one more time I'm gonna lose it.
Liz
Wow! at least let me apologize for calling so late first. And I know you're tired but that court session today was brutal are you okay?
Sara
I'm fine. (sarcastically) it's not like I've loved the guy for 5 years and and I'm medically not fertile.
Liz
Yikes! Okay look you can't control what your body does at times but you can control what you can do about your future, it's his loss anyway.
Sara (exhales)
Whatever, I guess I'm fated to being a divorced lawyer who's destined to be alone forever (sniffling) I'm never gonna be a mom.
Liz
Hey come on now, we don't know wha---
BOOM!!! A violent shockwave rocks the car headlights flicker red-orange streaks through the sky, a meteor - no but a pod let's find out as it ccrashes through the trees and slams through the dirt meters from the road with a fiery thud. After gaining composure Sara gets out of her pickup and examines it, her phone already cracked and disconnected.
Sara (sarcastically)
That's just great. At least the car is not damaged too badly.
She sees something glowing a few meters from her it was a pod it hisses steam coming out from the hedges and it opens she walks towards it stealthily and sees two children barely older than toddlers and the older one was clutching the baby protectively.
Sara
Babies?!
She carries both of them to the back seat and with her strength it was surprising that she could carry the pod and place it at the back of the pickup truck, and gets in the car and drives.
Sara (mid panic)
Okay Sara you just picked up two alien kids from space (exhales) wasn't NASA planning on travelling to space to confirm this or don't I remember. What the hell am I gonna do now?
All of a sudden Pyro wakes up gasping and immediately clutches at his younger brother and breathes a sigh of relief and wonders where he is
Pyro (confused)
What the--?
Sara
O--Oh, you're awake? my name's Sara I found you, are you okay?
Pyro
Where am I?
Sara
Welcome... to planet earth.
Pyro (quietly)
We made it.
Sara
Um... Would you mind telling me your name and where you come from? I kinda saw you fall from the sky.
Pyro
You will address me as Pyro, First son of Arya the great Fire Star and first generation scientist Ned and I am---
GROWL!!!!!
Unfortunately he couldn't hide his embrassed state
Sara (giggles)
Hungry I suppose. Look we're almost at my parents we can get something to eat from there. Uhh... Tell me what planet are you from?
Pyro (looks at the stars)
Kelion Prime.
Sara
Don't worry I'll protect you from now on. Promise.
A few minutes later they arrive at her home she sees the house she built for them a few years back, still as beautiful as ever a big house fully furnished with everything you would ever need as her pickup pulls in she jumps out flustered but more so pretty excited pyro stays in clutching to his baby brother and her grandparents Cyrus and Wanjiku come out to greet her.
Cyrus (concerned)
You were supposed to be here hours ago it's almost 5am. what happened?
Sara
Guuka, you will NOT believe me.
Cyrus
I served my country years ago I've seen this you couldn't even dream of. Try me.
Sara
Fine. I won't ruin the surprise
She leads them to the back of the truck and when they saw the alien pod their legs almost gave out.
Cyrus
Holy Shit!! This is NOT good for my heart.
Wanjiku
What is that?!
Sara
"That is an alien pod" Remember that Superman movie we watched a few weeks back. Yeah so I'm kind of in that situation.
Pyro suddenly comes out of the car while carrying his baby brother through instant teleportation which he just achieved
Pyro
Damn what good is it achieving it now?!
Wanjiku almost faints amd Cyrus legs completely give out, Sara kneels down to him
Sara
Hey, let's get you some food alright?
She leads them to the house and while inside Wanjiku after regaining composure she goes into the kitchen and prepares warm milk for the baby and chapati and beans for pyro as she's cooking Cyrus pulls her to the side after she got pyro to seat at the table.
Cyrus
Are you gonna take these kids to government.
Sara (firmly)
No! that will never happen I---
Cyrus
Calm down I'm not trying to pick a fight with you I'm just asking you do you know what you're doing
Sara
Yes! I know
Cyrus
That kid is the same as me. He's seen things that a child should not.
Sara
What do you mean? Wait, do you mean like child soldier something like that?
Cyrus
Probably, I hope I'm wrong.
Wanjiku brings the plate of food to him and puts the milk in the bottle while she tries to feed baby Jon he snatches the bottle and takes a sip leaving all of them confused and heads straight towards Sara and hands her the bottle
Pyro
I have determined that there is no poison in this bottle but only you are allowed to feed my brother under my strict super vision.
Sara
Uhh... Yeah sure I can do that.
She carefully carries the baby and feeds him.
Sara
Remind me his name
Pyro (drowisly after eating so much)
His name is Jon don't ever forget it
He falls asleep
Wanjiku
I guess children will still be children no matter where they are from.
As Sara was burping him he burps loudly and fire comes out of his mouth burns her shirt and baby Jon laughs at her while the rest are in awe.
Sara (jokingly)
Is this funny to you?
