Zitron Research Paper

Improved Essays
I started my life not in Wanaque, New Jersey, or even Abingtin, Pennsylvania, but on planet Zitron where I was the only human. The story starts as so: See my mother was the only human-like creature that had ever touched Zitron. She met my father, Josef, sorceror of Mars, on a trip to alter the Earth’s rotation.

After devouring two bags of Zitron provided gasoline she began to drift asleep at her post. Seeing this her right tentacle co-captain, Elena, told her to rest.

Once deep enough into our atmosphere my father and his men followed the Tronies into New York City where they landed in a large field. Us dumb Earthlings were oblivious to the showdown thanks to Josef’s sorcery, but sadly, I was not. Bewildered as to why no one paid any attention to two ships parked in Central Park I foolishly ran towards the two leaders. “Sydney?”, cried my father in a sappy end of movie attitude, “Is that you?” “Oh, duh it’s her Josef, there are reasons I travel other than to beat you and your people at another war. I wanted to see my daughter.”
“Uhhhh, daugher?”, I asked. I must have heard wrong. “I’m an orphan, I’m no one’s
