Oscar's Last Flight

With the impending demise of the Planet Earth, Oscar has been reassigned to a far away galaxy by High Command!

  OSCAR'S LAST FLIGHT

            Hello Earthlings!

            Oscar here with some sad news....... well not for you, but me. See the High Command has given me new orders. I am to head to another galaxy, many light years from yours.

             I was hoping they could allow me to observe the devastation you humans have been causing to yourselves. But some of our officials feel I am just to important to get caught up in the melee.

         So I am going to take one last look at your once lovely planet you called, call- Earth! It would have been a paradise, but senseless destruction has been rampant for eons. And soon the day will come when nothing will be left!

         Sure wish there was some way to save some of you. Like this awesome band from Iraq that I heard when I passed over that area. Yeah they were loud, and for once I had forgotten I was there to observe, and not get involved. I wonder what became of that musical band?

             Oh well, I am sure they are doing well......or you don't think- nah, they couldn't have died from a bomb blast? Hopefully they are somewhere relatively safe, fulfilling the dream they had to be the best heavy metal band till the end of time!

           Which wont be very much longer- give or take a couple of years ( your time of course.) To me it will take but a moment- a flash of light being extinguished! You are here now..... then the next moment you're gone. Poof!

So let's see what I have observed going on so far "

1. An oil spill off the coast called the Gulf Oil Spill, caused my man's inept ability to use quality parts.

2.Then the senseless continuous bombings in the Middle East.

3. And now parts of the earth are either being flooded, or is on fire. ( tch, tch, tch- the fire was caused by man that is a sure-fire fact.)

          But the flood is caused by Mother, you know her as Mother Nature " she is very, very angry. So she has taken up the issue with Father Time. They have decided its time for them to retire, letting this planet die off. (Never to be thought of again) Well I had fond memories of scaring earthlings. Maybe I'll do some of that before I zoom off to my next destination. Oh and I will go visit the crash site where my cousin lost his life. Boy, its a good thing he did die, otherwise he could be some kind of weird experiment for your government.

      Well time to take one last look around, then zoom off to my next job. I can't even stop and see the sunbathing Venutians; High Command is monitoring me. They installed some kind of buzzer in my seat, and if I get close to that planet- “BUZZ”! I don't enjoy being jolted out of my skin either!

     Oh dear look at the time, I've been given strict orders to take one last look around. No dilly-dallying or hanky panky they said! So earthlings enjoy your last days here on this planet.

Remember " Life is short " like my stature! Yet yours wont last long after I vacate your airspace......unfortunately. ( getting shorter by the millisecond too)

                 So ta ta Earthlings............... Oscar's Out!

       Foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

p.s. This will be my last and final communication with you lowly earthlings too!

Author's Note

I know that many will be sad to see Oscar go, but with the demise of Earth and its inhabitants there will be no reason for him to come observe- nothing will be here to see. We are a doomed planet, as he has been warning us- so enjoy life while you can!
A picture will be provided later to accompany this last story!

This is a good story of warning. People should heed to this and realize all the things we take advantage of. Although I don't thing humans could destroy the Earth with pollution and global warming bull but I do know it is very sad to see the oil spill and some of the places on earth that used to be beautiful turn into something horrific. I love the sense of futuristic style in this. I wonder who oscar is? Stil a mystery but :) but a good write on your part.

I'm going to miss Oscar. He might have been short on legs but not as shortsighted as we humans, great write.

lol...this is very cute....however, some very strong questions "we as the human race" might want to wake up to. but do you think we will do that? no....i like it...and not only that, it would be nice if "outer influences" had a big a heart as "oscar." but i doubt it....plus, i liked the part of his cousin. i guess that was due to the "roswell incident"? lol....once again very cute....

lol...we should have went with him J! He could have dropped us off at the sunbathing planet. Funny and sad and true all at the same time. Liked it girl, nice job.
