The next day at school Kyle saw Jennifer, but she looked horrible, she was wearing her shorts she wore to bed with a baggy sweater, she had flip flops but one was missing, her hair was messy and disheveled, tinfoil was folded into a rectangular headband that sat atop her head. Her eyes were tired and looked around nervously, it was clear she had been crying. She had her backpack and messenger bag were overflowing with papers and what looked like metal poles.
She tried to stop one of her friends and seemed to be frantically explaining something she pulled out some papers and pointed to the sky then around manically. Jenifer’s friend seemed to be annoyed and brushed her off.
She then saw Kyle and ran up to him, she tripped on her flip flop and her papers and pieces of what looked like parts of a toaster spilled out. She quickly scrambled to pick them up and show him.
“Kyle! Look just listen! You’re into like weird sci-fi stuff right?! It was aliens! I’m not crazy I swear! Last night I was abducted! Look I saw stars and they put things inside me!” She babbled and showed him her papers, scrawlings of shapes and blobs covered the pages.
“See?! Wait okay I need to check your Zen level!” She stopped herself and pulled out a coat hanger that was bent into an 8 with magnets and wire wrapped around it. She moved it up his body. “Just—wait! 76, 27, 38, 38. I think you’re clean!” Hee voice was manic.
“Okay so they…t-they inserted a tracker in my brain!” She poked her temple furiously. “But this keeps them out!” She indicated to her tinfoil hairband, “so they can’t listen directly, but uh…okay metal zenith, 35. 67? No wait—what was I? Oh! Okay you have to believe me!”
