Rita Moon - Final Destination - Earth. First book

Luana took a squeezed squirrel out of a box. And he put a little semi-liquid mass into his mouth. Ooooh! It’s delicious. I’m ready to eat five of these! he exclaimed.

Then he took out a bottle of cocktail I eat on the basis of sea minerals, and also drank a little. Mmmm! Great. Luanu leaned back against the partition that served as a divider for the food and sleeping compartments. And closed his eyes. «It’s great that both of them survived today! After all, if something happened to one of them, the other would have a hard time. Oh, how hard it is!»

Now it was small. Collect the remaining minerals and roots, samples of volcanic rocks, pick and dry flowers and leaves of benettites, and also catch local small animals in the river and place them in special alcohol-free boxes and you can fly back.

Luana himself did not notice how he fell asleep. Shea’s voice woke him. It turns out it was already evening, and Shea suggested that he go to the sleeping compartment.

Luanu nodded sleepily as he followed his friend.

***

Climb!!! Shea shouted

it’s right into Luan’s ears. – Get up, get up! Today we will go towards the sun – to the northern part of the plateau. There we have to find berries and plants that, according to our preliminary data, can be eaten. Get up, sleepyhead. There is not much time!

Luanu stretched sleepily.

According to preliminary data

Liera, did you mean?

Friend, by our expedition

the whole department was engaged. Liera is only one of the scientists, and it is not good to be mocking about my girlfriend. Shea jokingly shook his finger at Luana.

Luanu rubbed his eyes with his index fingers.

Sorry friend. I could not restrain myself.

Shea patted his younger companion on the shoulder. – Get up. We’re not here to sleep. – already in a fatherly way he repeated.

Luanu got up on the bunk and, having taken a sitting position, straightened up.

Uh. To be honest, already

my enthusiasm dwindled. I may not survive the second meeting with these creatures.

Shea turned serious.

Lou, first in the northern part

they are not there, and secondly, we are not here to sit in the ship. You knew what you were signing up for.

Shea got up from the side of the bunk, on the edge of which he was sitting, and stopped in the opening of the compartment.

Wash your face, pray and

get ready. Be ready in thirty minutes. I’ll be outside. I want to pick up some of the fruit of these ferns. That are around the ship.

OU! Fruit? Are they

bear fruit?

Yes, but they are inedible. But who

knows what they can do. Up to drugs and medicines. We’ll see. In general, if anything, I’m outside. Hurry up. We need to get back before dark.

Shea said this and walked out, while Luanu stretched again.

The day promises to be

saturated!

The ship of the Iarganians «hung» in the Earth’s orbit. Strange creatures with heads like humanoids and effeminate delicate bodies watched the two friends on a large screen in the main building of the ship. The senior, apparently the captain, reported his suspicions:

Looking for moha rasbo loa! – this is

meant: «They came to stay.»

A female, sitting in the wheelhouse nearby, said:

Dome Fao Kom! – Which meant:

«You’re right, captain.»

The captain continued:

Looking for carrna boha loa! – in

translated, these words meant: «We cannot allow them to do this.»

The captain got up and whispered something in the pilot’s ear. The pilot nodded and pulled the yellow lever toward him. The ship accelerated, developed light speed, and broke into the Earth’s atmosphere.

At this time, Shia and Luana roamed the paths of the South Plateau. Small boars swarmed under their feet.

Luanu heard a strange sound and raised his head to the sky.

Shea, look! Same

spaceship!

Shea turned and looked up, too.

Lord Lou! These are the Iargans!

They can kill us if they find out the purpose of our mission!

Luanu and Shea exchanged glances and rushed towards the ship. Luanu was gasping for breath from the fast run, but Shea did not let him slow down. In the end, they have not gone that far, and can still manage to hide in the ship.

But the Iargans knew what they were doing. Watching the friends on the screens, they corrected the course, and blocked their path 3 km from the ship.

Luanu and Shea are trapped. Nets thrown from the ship hanging above them bound them hand and foot.

Lou, pray that Light so that we do not

killed! Shea shouted desperately trying to gnaw through the net.

Shi! The ship has landed. They are

come out. What to do?

Shea looked to the right.

Do not move. And nothing to them

tell me. They quite possibly know nothing, and will let us go.

Captain Ssen approached

the Lemurians floundering under the net.

There was a translator with him. Alshi.

The captain gathered his hands in a salute and bowed.

Mas waho ruben jas! —

he said.

Greetings, Neighbors. —

translated by the translator.

Luana and Shea stared at Captain Ssen with wide eyes.

– What language to answer? Luana asked Shea in a whisper.

Speak ours. Translator

knows the Lemurian dialect.

Greetings, sir….

Ssen! – answered without waiting

the end of Alsha’s sentence.

Ssen. – continued Luana. – Than

owe such a daring intrusion to you?

Alshi translated the words to Luan to the captain.

Aho movie zhzhino Praba! Yesou

tucci koshine bilbao. – said the captain. And he continued: – Issa boha loa!

Alshi translated:

Friends. Earth is unsafe

a place to live. We are forced to insist on our help. Otherwise you will find death here.

Luanu and Shea again exchanged glances.

What is your name? – Shea turned to

Alshi.

My name is Alshi. she nodded.

Alshi, ask your

captain, why did he decide that we are going to live here?

Alshi translated the question.

The captain said something again and Alshi translated.

Captain Ssen says he knows

about the plight of the most distant planet. And so I decided to offer help. We flew from Venus. It is not yet inhabited. But it is ideal for races of our type.

Luanu’s eyes widened.

You invite us to share with

you Venus? – he was taken aback. Alshi translated. Captain Ssen was indignant at something, and spoke for about ten minutes of earth time.

Finally, Alshi started:

You can get dear

guests in our new home. We can offer you the whole north, because we know that you are not thermophilic. Every Iarganian knows from childhood that a Lemurian is a friend. We would be glad to see how children of your race are born on our new planet.

Luanu wanted to say something. But Shea interrupted him.

Tell President Iargi that

we want OUR planet. And we will

continue to explore the Earth.

Alshi translated, to which Captain Ssen silently nodded and headed back to the ship. Alshi bowed to the two friends and followed her captain.

When Luana and Shea were finally alone, they freed themselves from the net and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Friends? Luana said. AND

Both Lemurians burst out laughing.

On the farthest planet of the solar system, where the confederation of the Lemurian race was located, life was in full swing. When ordinary Lemurians learned that an expedition to Earth was sent, they began to pack their personal things in a hurry. The Lemurians were confident that a general evacuation would be announced very soon. Children were taken out of schools, transferred to home schooling so that parents did not need to be distracted once again. Sao Pole, the head of the confederation, made an address to the people, right in the main square of the capital – Janabe. Sao Pole said:
