Capítulo 222: Chapter 222: Aliens

Rose stared at the road they drove on and then the apartment buildings and businesses they passed. Everything looked new and people walked around with confidence.

"They started fixing things about a month ago. Everything was falling apart," he said, still sounding as if he admired their invaders.

She glared at him. "That might be so, but surely you can see we cannot allow aliens to take over our country. We can fix things ourselves."
