PEACE ON EARTH!

Peace on Earth.

"Peace on Earth, pah!"

Xinz shook her head as she put the tinsel along the walls. Gej acted up every Christmas when she invited all the townsfolk round for dinner.

"If uncle Kleb hadn't lost our transport out of here on his stupid bet, we'd have been back on Mars by now." Gej moaned.


"If there wasn't any peace on Earth, Gej, we'd be in a whole lot of trouble."

Gej tutted holding one end of the tinsel for her.

"Goodwill to all men? Pah! They mean anyone but us." When he realised he wasn't getting anywhere verbally, "I miss Mars!"

"Boo - hoo!" Xinz shook another piece of tinsel out of the box. "You know we can't go back to Mars 'cause daddy stole a space ship."

Gej turned a darker shade of green at her comment. "I preferred Mars - I had friends there."

"Mars was okay, but I like the humans here."

"Humans are only good for one thing, eating!" Gej spat, running around the room with his own piece of tinsel.

"Before you ask, no! I'm inviting them round for Christmas dinner, then they leave - all of them!" Xinz pointed a finger at him, making prodding movements.

"Can't I have just one...please, just one?"
