A Day in the Life

This is a short story for RuneScape Compilation

Here I am. Sitting on the Zamorakian castle in Castle Wars. Holding a new sniper rifle. Waiting for my target. The drums are rolling. The hordes of people waiting to slice at each others throats. And they are off. Yet one of them is an alien metamorph. I hold the trigger, and aim for the head. Its pulled.

And how did I get into this mess? It started two days ago, the year 188 of the Fifth Age. My name is Link Orach. I'm in Varrock, when a strange man walks up to me. He identifies as...

"Captain Torack Joblar, CEO of Torchwood Gielinor. You know about our secret little group, don't ya?"

"Being head of security in the RuneScapian Secret Order pays off."

"I'm short of human staff at the moment, because they died years ago. And well, welcome aboard. Your new job will be head of security and millitary operations"

"At least I know my job now. But Torchwood is about aliens--"

"So we use guns and crap to get rid of them" Torack smiled.

The two men walked into the Varrock museum, then into the natural history section. A code was typed in and a door slid open.

"Its.... different" I hesitated when seeing the base of operations.

"Its sexy enough for me. Anyway, come to this computer"

But as I went there, there was aliens. I gasped.

"I told you I needed human staff. Thats an Xenomorph, a Deathworm and a Scorpozi. Their different races have invaded before, but these individuals now work for me"

"I've fought aliens before. Didn't think they were any friendly aliens."

"Moving on, I need you to scan the files on our super-computer. It will help us on our next mission."

I went on the computer, and it came up with files of different aliens and species. The list included; a Dalek, Raxacoricofallapatorian, Cyberman, Judoon, Zantrozian, Scorpozi, Deathworm, Xenomorph, Hydraxite, Karazahn, Kirop, Calamaritok, Blade and the list went on.

But Torack stopped me at the Blade file.
