Hi Maria, this is a great use of the 70 words. Odd that he can’t communicate with Ann yet. I am interested to see what the agenda is:) Great use of the prompt. I feel like you may have missed word in this sentence: The room she was in windowless and predominantly grey. Feel like it should be – The room she was in was windowless and predominantly grey.
Well done:)

How does she know that, to the aliens, holding your hands up is peaceful? Could get her further into trouble.

Thanks for sharing.

Should the first sentence be, Ann had no idea where she was instead of no idea of her location? Interesting story and communicating without words. I agree with Michael that holding up her hands to an alien might not mean peace to them! Good luck with this.

You told a lot of such few words.

Hey Maria and things get curious. Had Ann been able to ‘hear’ these aliens (the Kronna) in the past? I may have missed that. I like the moment of confusion that assailed the alien. It makes me look for more clues of a plan by the Xylops. All the best and regards, Seyi

Hi Seyi,
Thanks for popping by for a read:-) No, this is Ann’s first close up and personal experience with the Kronna. Thanks as always for your kind input.

Hi Maria,
Mmmm, so she’s drawing a blank as the Kronna haven’t enabled her to listen in. Yeah, hands up is universal in our globe 😀 I do wonder what an alien might make of that, maybe I shouldn’t be wondering… Waiting for your next super detailed episode. See ya.~ Astrid

Well, then, a delicious bait she is, poor girl. Though I have high hopes and strongly believe in her to wiggled herself out of this dire situation.
I laughed over, ‘Get off me you ape’ – spot on 🙂 Now I’m wondering what happened to Ann’s friends? And what about her, what is Madam Presdient planning to do with her? Keep going, Maria, I’m hooked and waiting to see what comes next.~ Astrid

President Tucker is such a great character, so devious she’s mouthwatering, and just gleeful. Nice scene.

Hi Maria, wow the plot thickens even more. I fear poor Ann is in a lot of trouble now. The Kronna are definitely evil of that I am sure. Thanks for sharing:)

Hey Maria and it certainly looks like the Kronna and Madame President are a match made in, well, whoever bad guys s do their match-making. The last line did seem to indicate that the President is in denial, maybe brainwashed by the Kronna? I hope Anne can get the message out somehow. Regards, Seyi

Hi Seyi,
Thanks so much for reading this and for your insight into my little story. It is much appreciated.

Oh dear where is the Capt when you need him?!

Hi Maria,
Oh I take it back when I said the President isn’t my favorite character. She’s absolutely vile! I hope Ann finds a way to switch places with her so that Tucker can get a taste of her “friends’ ” goodness. That was a great continuation and a clever use of the prompt. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
