The Extraction
“They think I’m crazy! I need an extraction immediately.” Maz said talking into her wrist.
“And what are we doing out of bed?” The nurse asked shining a flashlight.
“I’m trying to leave.” Maz told her.
“I think you should be sleeping.” The nurse replied. Maz was marched back to her room and given a sedative.
“I don’t like these pills.” Maz complained.
“Just take it, and no more night adventures please.” The nurse ordered. She closed the door behind her, but heard a thud. Opening the door again, she found Maz was gone. “Damn the alien got away.”
