The Hablimarizacks made a miscalculation.
They didn’t even know they had made it until the very end, and by then, there was nowhere safe for them.
This race prided themselves as being very destructive when taking over a planet by taking it down from the inside out.
Their newly born offspring, while of high intelligence, were always handled as if they were unpleasant. They would isolate each one by themselves so there wouldn’t be any kinks with the ‘create and integrate’ process. Once that was done they would place the young ones in what would be called their ‘workstations’ until they reached max maturity. Most lower level species would call them ‘families’.
By the time the last child matured all the information the Hablimarizacks would need to take over the planet would be all neatly packed. This information included and was not limited to:
Current leaders of every major nation/country
Biggest weapons available
Quickest access to said weapons
Location of all main food sources
Locations of sentimental value
Locations for the young offspring of the planet
Understanding of the militaristic forces on planet
What the alien race did not account for when they picked the planet Earth, was the treatment their offspring would receive upon integration into their ‘workstations’.
With all previous planets the other races would treat the offspring with horrible reactions. From physical abuse like hitting or beatings, to mental abuse like ignoring them like they’re not even there.
Humans however... They severely underestimated the mentality of humanity. They thought that by being clever they could finally bring down the race that had ran off three other major predator races, scared off seven destructive based races, and made peace with six-hundred and sixty-six different neutral races.
They thought they were tricking the humans who were always talked about as clever and smart. They assumed they had succeeded in starting the first phase of the beginning of Humanity’s Fall.
What they didn’t know however, was that they had never succeeded in the first place.
Each and every single one of the families that had received a ‘new member’ immediately contacted the Federal Office that deals with anything alien. After reading through the information that the neutral aliens had provided on all the other alien races they discovered what race had invaded their planet this time. After much debate it was decided that every family that had received an alien child would get funding from the World Wide Sudden Alien Situations Society to take care of the child.
All humans were given regularly updated guides on other alien races, so everybody on the planet knew the deal with the newest invaders. Many people feared for the future, but a majority of people were filled with the intent on raising these alien kids with the best childhood they LITERALLY wouldn’t get on any other planet.
Once the kids reached a certain age, their families took them to meet other families who also had an alien child. The aliens were raised along side many other human children who were always curious about any alien they met. Kids who had an alien sibling would brag to other kids. They made the aliens feel happy, safe, and warm. They never wanted to let this go.
Some families faced tragedies in the form of car incidences, killers, and other everyday occurrences. These alien kids, who have strong memories who were told at birth what their purpose on this planet was, who knew what fate was in store for this world. These alien kids swore they would never let anyone take away what was theirs. So they prepared. They informed government officials, they gave information to better protect their secrets, they help improve the planet defenses. They made sure to leave time open to go to Susie’s birthday party; Austin’s slumber party; the class field trip; family outings and events.
So when the very last child reached their max maturity, they were ready.
They waited together as the Mother ship, and only ship, lowered into an empty desert area, the Elder members of the Hablimarizacks approached them, long six fingered hands outstretched for the planet information. The leader of the Earth-raised pack handed the parcel over to the Elder, mentally counting down as the last few pieces fell into place.
“Finally, the end is upon us.” one Elder stated.
Another Elder opened up the package to find several pages of what appeared to be nothing but nonsensical writings. They flipped through a few more but found more of the same.
“What is this nonsense!!” the Elder demanded, looking at the Earth-raised children with fury. “Where is the information?!”
“You won’t be getting the information.” the one who handed the package over states.
“You dare disobey your parents?! You’re life givers!!?”
“You left us to grown up on an enemy planet with the knowledge that we might not live happy lives. You’ve done the same with our parents, and their parents before them, and before them on and on. You expect us to give you loyalty after spending years apart when you never showed us care before dumping us here.” each Earth-raised held a hard look in their eyes.
“Y’all didn’t even care ‘bout us ta begin with!!” one shouted from the back of the crowd.
“You dare toss us to do your dirty work, like mongrels!! You are just a bunch of cowards who cannot take on an enemy head on!” another Earth-raised closer to the front sneered, checking their stylized nailed, sharped especially for this day.
“You dare-!” one Elder spat.
“We dare because you threaten what is ours.” an Earth-raised decked out in pastel Lolita clothes interrupts, spitting a wad of gum into the Elder’s face.
“You were right about one thing, Elder.” the Earth-raised who handed the package over says. “The end is upon us. Your end.”
With those words all the Earth-raised activate the shield bracelets they all wore and hit the deck as the cloaking machines hiding the massive gathering of all the world’s military forces shut off.
The Elders went first, a bullet in each head. Next was the ship, each and every single one of the race of Hablimarizacks was captured. The governments dealt with the prisoners while the Earth-raised went home to catch a soap opera, or make it in time for their live stream game time.
Humans are not dumb, they are very smart.
They are also very willing to adopt cute little alien children that were literally abandoned on their planet because their parents suck.
