"Greetings, woman of Earth," said a quiet but clearly audible voice from the direction of the specks on the table. Karla felt a wave of terror as the bottom dropped out of her reality.
They were, of course, the alien beings which Karla had been speaking to minutes earlier. The one with the voice translator / amplifier went by a name equivilant to our name Conrad. With him were twenty two of his fellow travellors who had abandoned ship by teleporting out before it broke up.
Things were not going well. They were seperated from the millions of other passengers from the colony vessel whose fate was unknown, and furthermore they appeared to have been the victims of an accident which had shrunk them all to a fraction of their normal size!
"How is this possible?" screamed Petty Officer, Nathalie.
They were shaken, scared and at the mercy of a mountain sized alien from Earth!
Karla was in the grip of hysteria. This couldn't be happening! She blinked and looked again at the tiny things. They couldn't really have faces! The flash had to have been her imagination. That voice.....
"NO!" she cried out. "Nonononono..."
"Talk to her again!" urged Nathalie. But Conrad wasn't sure. What if this terrifying giantess was hostile? Or what if they pushed her into a panic? If he made the wrong choice, she could kill them all with one of her massive hands without effort!
