Lost in a Forest

Once upon a time, on Pluto, there was a little alien-girl named Quinto. She looked just like humans but she had lavender skin and dark purple hair to her knees. All the girls and women on Pluto had long hair because it's very cold on their planet. One day Quinto's parents decided to go and see what it was like on Earth. They took their little daughter along. The place they went was a forest. Quinto was disappointed. She had hoped to see Earthlings. So she stalked off alone to sulk. A while after she heard her mother calling her. So she went back to the spaceship. She stood on the first step and said good-bye to the forest. Then her dad called, "Everybody in? Blast off!" The spaceship door closed and sped off, knocking poor Quinto to the ground. She stared at the speck in the sky and hoped her parents would see that she was missing. But they thought that she was hiding from them because they had taken her to a boring place. "Kids," Quinto's dad said. He never suspected that his kid was still in the forest. Quinto decided to look around. She took a bag from the pocket of her silver dress. She put a twig, leaf. and some moss in to study when she got home. If she ever got home. She didn't cry. Aliens don't have the ability to cry. She walked and soon she came to a clearing where a herd of deer were feeding. One of them looked up, then went back to grazing. Animals are not scared of aliens. Quinto then remembered a signal light rock she had that would notify her parents and tell them where she was. She took a rock out of her pocket and pressed a button, then waited. In a few minutes the spaceship landed in the clearing, scaring off the deer. Quinto ran inside and hugged her parents. Then they all went home together.
