Kal couldn't tell for certain no one had seen him, but there weren't any sirens screeching through the night. He opened the hatch and climbed down. So far, so good. He hurried across the park then stopped by the statue of some guy on a horse. The house was just across the street. He looked right, then left, then scurried across the open area and slid under a tall bush. So far, so good.
He hoped the commander wouldn't find out what he was doing. He doubted he could explain why he was 100 light years off course. If all went well, he wouldn't have to. Kal looked around. Surely, this was too easy. He switched on his voice translator and readied his ray gun. It was time.
