get ready. Be ready in thirty minutes. I’ll be outside. I want to pick up some of the fruit of these ferns. That are around the ship.
OU! Fruit? Are they
bear fruit?
Yes, but they are inedible. But who
knows what they can do. Up to drugs and medicines. We’ll see. In general, if anything, I’m outside. Hurry up. We need to get back before dark.
Shea said this and walked out, while Luanu stretched again.
The day promises to be
saturated!

The ship of the Iarganians «hung» in the Earth’s orbit. Strange creatures with heads like humanoids and effeminate delicate bodies watched the two friends on a large screen in the main building of the ship. The senior, apparently the captain, reported his suspicions:
Looking for moha rasbo loa! – this is
meant: «They came to stay.»
A female, sitting in the wheelhouse nearby, said:
Dome Fao Kom! – Which meant:
«You’re right, captain.»
The captain continued:
Looking for carrna boha loa! – in
translated, these words meant: «We cannot allow them to do this.»
The captain got up and whispered something in the pilot’s ear. The pilot nodded and pulled the yellow lever toward him. The ship accelerated, developed light speed, and broke into the Earth’s atmosphere.
At this time, Shia and Luana roamed the paths of the South Plateau. Small boars swarmed under their feet.
Luanu heard a strange sound and raised his head to the sky.
Shea, look! Same
spaceship!
Shea turned and looked up, too.
Lord Lou! These are the Iargans!
They can kill us if they find out the purpose of our mission!
Luanu and Shea exchanged glances and rushed towards the ship. Luanu was gasping for breath from the fast run, but Shea did not let him slow down. In the end, they have not gone that far, and can still manage to hide in the ship.
But the Iargans knew what they were doing. Watching the friends on the screens, they corrected the course, and blocked their path 3 km from the ship.
Luanu and Shea are trapped. Nets thrown from the ship hanging above them bound them hand and foot.
Lou, pray that Light so that we do not
killed! Shea shouted desperately trying to gnaw through the net.
Shi! The ship has landed. They are
come out. What to do?
Shea looked to the right.
Do not move. And nothing to them
tell me. They quite possibly know nothing, and will let us go.
Captain Ssen approached
the Lemurians floundering under the net.
There was a translator with him. Alshi.
The captain gathered his hands in a salute and bowed.
Mas waho ruben jas! —
he said.
Greetings, Neighbors. —
translated by the translator.
Luana and Shea stared at Captain Ssen with wide eyes.
– What language to answer? Luana asked Shea in a whisper.
Speak ours. Translator
knows the Lemurian dialect.
Greetings, sir….
Ssen! – answered without waiting
the end of Alsha’s sentence.
Ssen. – continued Luana. – Than
owe such a daring intrusion to you?
Alshi translated the words to Luan to the captain.
Aho movie zhzhino Praba! Yesou
tucci koshine bilbao. – said the captain. And he continued: – Issa boha loa!
Alshi translated:
Friends. Earth is unsafe
a place to live. We are forced to insist on our help. Otherwise you will find death here.
Luanu and Shea again exchanged glances.
What is your name? – Shea turned to
Alshi.
My name is Alshi. she nodded.
Alshi, ask your
captain, why did he decide that we are going to live here?
Alshi translated the question.
The captain said something again and Alshi translated.
Captain Ssen says he knows
about the plight of the most distant planet. And so I decided to offer help. We flew from Venus. It is not yet inhabited. But it is ideal for races of our type.
Luanu’s eyes widened.
You invite us to share with
you Venus? – he was taken aback. Alshi translated. Captain Ssen was indignant at something, and spoke for about ten minutes of earth time.
Finally, Alshi started:
You can get dear
guests in our new home. We can offer you the whole north, because we know that you are not thermophilic. Every Iarganian knows from childhood that a Lemurian is a friend. We would be glad to see how children of your race are born on our new planet.
Luanu wanted to say something. But Shea interrupted him.
Tell President Iargi that
we want OUR planet. And we will
continue to explore the Earth.
Alshi translated, to which Captain Ssen silently nodded and headed back to the ship. Alshi bowed to the two friends and followed her captain.
When Luana and Shea were finally alone, they freed themselves from the net and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Friends? Luana said. AND
Both Lemurians burst out laughing.

On the farthest planet of the solar system, where the confederation of the Lemurian race was located, life was in full swing. When ordinary Lemurians learned that an expedition to Earth was sent, they began to pack their personal things in a hurry. The Lemurians were confident that a general evacuation would be announced very soon. Children were taken out of schools, transferred to home schooling so that parents did not need to be distracted once again. Sao Pole, the head of the confederation, made an address to the people, right in the main square of the capital – Janabe. Sao Pole said:
Greetings to you, great ones
inhabitants of Lemuria! Today has come a great day in the history of our people. Our fellow countrymen have landed on Earth. Their purpose is to analyze the flora and fauna of the Earth. If everything goes as we planned, then after two or three lunar cycles we will be there. All together, in full force! To all our people. I ask you to get ready. Start your camp and pray relentlessly that we will succeed! Twenty-four ships with 10,000 seats have already been built, and the same number will be built. We will evacuate in several flights, on the most distant planet there will be not a single Lemurian left. I promise you! —
The Lemurian people greeted his words with enthusiastic applause. After listening to the words of their leader, the Lemurians dispersed to their homes and began their preparations.
Work on the ships for the evacuation was in full swing. Ten thousand mechanics worked on their production. They were built in absolutely all cities of the confederation. In the right amount, so that «everyone» flew away. The reason why the Lemurians had to leave their planet in a hurry was the water that was unfit for drinking and the violation of the oxygen balance of the air. For some time, remoteness from the sun did not affect the quality of drinking water and the composition of oxygen, but over time, when FarFarOut entered a different orbit, the planet did not have enough sunlight for the photosynthesis of plants, and therefore the production of oxygen by them.
From that moment on, at the emergency Council of the Confederation, its head gave the task to scientists to study nearby planets for suitability for life. Scientists have proposed several options in the Milky Way galaxy and in several other neighboring ones, but it was the Earth that looked the most attractive against their background. And then the choice of the head fell on the Earth. It was decided to find daredevils who would dare to go to Earth on a small shuttle ship, equip their expedition, and get all samples of flora and fauna from Earth.
The search for daredevils began immediately
the same. A general mobilization was announced, and thousands of children who matched physical and mental characteristics began to be selected. The selection was tough and combined testing and training. When Shia and Luanu were at the point of combat training, they alone, out of hundreds of trainees at that moment, passed every single test perfectly. Shea was a former intelligence warrior and pilot, but retired when alien invasions stopped and Luanu was an excellent athlete. Since high school and at the Academy, he was the best thrower, also excellent archery.
Seeing their results, Sao Pole demanded them to him.
He started right off the bat, not letting the guys come to their senses.
Friends. You have a great
mission! You will have to go to Earth and collect animal and plant samples for us. As well as samples of water and soil. We must understand whether we can fully exist there, and not only we, but also our children.
