"Oh son of a gun, that's huge!" yelled Jason as he looked out the window of his classroom. It was only 8:00 AM and he had prep at the high school. He had an hour to grade the Social Studies papers, but he knew that with this catastrophe he wouldn't have time. As he undid the tie around his neck to reduce his panic-enduced sweat, he looked out the window again.

It looked just like a gryffin, and it was across the soccor field on the other side of the parking lot. Mr. Richardsen got a phone call as he peered through the blinds of his window. He leaned back, replaced his glasses, and answered his class phone. "Uh, hello. Mr. Richardsen, uh, speaking."

"Jason, it's me, Tim. Have you seen that creature outside?" It was Mr. Greene, the science teacher in the floor above. He was watering plants in the greenhouse adjacent to his classroom when the gryffin landed. Jason was getting so hot from sheer terror that he took off his sweater vest, leaving the green shirt and slacks.

"Uh, yes. It appears to be, uh, a gryffin," Mr. Richardsen replied. He walked over and pulled the blinds up so he didn't have to walk over every time. He listened for Mr. Greene, but before either of them could speak, the high school was veiled by the shadow of a gargantuan vehicle. "Oh my!" Jason shouted into the phone. He could hear panic outside his door as students were escaping for their homes along with fellow teachers.

"That's incredible! It's... it's a spaceship!" Tim Greene exclaimed as it covered the glass in darkness. He dropped the phone and ran from the greenhouse to his classroom to the stairs and outside. Jason saw the car going down the bus lane and sighed.

"Oh of course." He hung up the phone and watched outside. The gryffin was just as scared as another ship moved over the neiborhood to the east. He looked at his teacher edition of the Social Studies I book. "What's today's, uh, date?" He turned around where his TA wrote the date, then looked at the book. "Of course, of course..." Jason looked out the window for the last time as chaos ensued: looting, fires, panic, and monstrosities. He read the date that the cultures of his book had predicted the end of the world. "It's written in the, uh, cards."
