The Attack
of Aliens.
‘The aliens are about to attack,’
said Pipi, who was just six but thought that he was old enough and smart enough
to reflect on and talk about such matters.
‘So what do you plan to
do? You must have thought of something to avert this attack,’ asked Pipi’s
father in all seriousness.
‘Well, to be sure I have
not been wasting my time, I do have a plan,’ Pipi was thoughtful in his words
and manner.
‘You can share your plan
with me; I won’t tell anyone anything about it.’
‘We human beings can’t
match their fire power; they are far ahead of us in this field. But I think I can
fiddle with their UPS.’
‘UPS?’ asked the father.
‘Universal Positioning
System; if their UPS starts malfunctioning they will not find their way to the Earth.’
‘How do you plan to do
it?’
‘Here is my device,’ Pipi
said, unwrapping a cardboard pyramid with strange symbols painted on its three
sides. He had a bright smile on face.
‘How does it work?’
‘This pyramid will generate
energy waves that will destroy the memory chips of their UPS. But there is a
problem? ’
‘What is that?’
‘I need some one to
meditate and focus on this pyramid to unleash its energy. But we have to hurry;
we can’t afford to waste even a minute’
‘Why don’t you go to bed;
I will meditate.’
‘But you need to be
careful, the Earth’s future is at stake,’ Pipi’s eyes said everything.
‘You can rely on me, I won’t
let you down.’
Pipi would not go to
sleep till his father had begun the meditation.
As minutes passed, Pipi
was smiling in his sleep. The father thought that it was not a bad plan; meditation
was doing him some good after a long and tedious day.
