![]() Maybe there was still hope for that if she kept moving north. With cell service down on every corner of the globe, and nowhere to plug in her phone for an accurate date and time, Marco had wished she’d at least smuggled a watch that told both the time and the date. Being in the thick of the woods, surrounded by both oaks and pines was lonely enough, but now that her thoughts began to betray the words she wrote down in a battered up red notebook, it was becoming harder to think straight for herself. Marco sighed in frustration, leaning her head back against the tall pine tree that supported her upright. Weeks? Shoot, I don’t even know what day it is right now. I haven’t seen a street or city line sign in days. Whether I’m still in Echo Creek or the next town over, I couldn’t even begin to tell you. In fact, I’m not even sure where I am anymore. ![]() Not unless I happen to come across another corner store or abandoned taco restaurant within a mile’s radius. Actually, having food would also be a nice change of pace, but I’m not counting on that anytime soon. Following that would be knowing where or what happened to my friends, and bringing my parents back. If there was one thing I would have changed in addition to all this, was to change the name. (It’s important that you know all of this, whoever is reading.)īut who cares about looks when you’re constantly running from danger, looking over your shoulder every second of the day all the while you’re planning your next move, knowing very well that they could also be following those same moves? My trusty red hoodie was wrapped around my waist, and to be completely honest: these old brown Vans had seen better days. I had, thankfully, layered black spaghetti strap under my lightweight pink-and-grey Henley the day everything went south. My hair was a tangled mess of the highest ponytail I could manage, my brown leggings torn up under dirty jean shorts from all of the tumbles and slips I’d made within a forty-eight hour time span. I didn’t even know if they were still alive, weeks later as I ran for my life through unfamiliar wooded areas way off the coast where we used to all live. That was before everything turned to chaos. The last time I saw Jackie Lynn Thomas and Star Butterfly was in the Echo Creek high school gym. STAR VS THE FORCES OF EVIL FALL FALL FALL MOVIESo while you enjoy this fic, and aren't sure about a lot of the goings ons because I didn't have the head space to literally write the WHOLE series out into a planned fic, I super duper recommend giving the movie a go or all of the books a read! I couldn't put the series down and I plan to do a complete re-read of it again soon.įor now, enjoy, I hope it's not TOO confusing, and happy reading! ♥ Alien!Tom? That's an AU I hadn't seen yet! ![]() Because it worked so well for Tomco and LISTEN. I basically crammed everything the movie is about, along with loss of friends and family, into a summary for this fic and went straight for Main Characters Pining For Each Other And End Up Having This Odd But Romantic Relationship Anyway While Also Creating A Master Plan For Saving Their Friends trope. The movie is a little more lack-luster than the books, so I recommend watching that AFTER the books, but if you can't get your hands on the books for the time being, I think it'll be a nice introduction piece since they did leave a few things out, but also nailed the important points on the head. ![]() If you've not either seen the movie adaptation or read any of The 5th Wave books by Rick Yancey and alien sci-fi mixed with teenagers is your kind of thing, then I ABSOLUTELY recommend both. ![]() So I literally ended up writing 5 chapters in ONE DAY (yesterday, ) because for whatever reason, I could NOT get this AU out of my head and knew that I both had to and wanted to write this.
