... with the drone before. Anna, here’s a radio. I’ll set it to channel ten. If anything happens, push the talk button and give us a yell.”
“Okay. See you soon.”

Pedro and I walked the few hundred meters to the lake. We put the radio and our weapons down, took our boots off, then jumped in the water with our clothes on. It was a little chilly, but being clean was more than worth it. I pulled my pants off under the water to empty them, then put them on. I took off my jacket too, and washed alien parts out of my bra.
Pedro stared at the way my t-shirt clung to my bra and chest as I stood up in the shallow water. I smiled and asked, “Do you have a wife? Anybody back at home?”
“No. Do you?”
I felt myself start to blush as I said, “No. Maybe when we find a real shower, I could wash your back?”
“Uh … sure.” He was grinning from ear to ear.
We put our boots back on, then picked up our weapons. I caught him glancing at my chest and butt a few times on the way back to camp. By the time we got there, Anna had made herself a crutch from an old tree branch. We decided that it would be safer to travel together instead of splitting up. Pedro and I took turns helping Anna, and Sam helped his granddaughter.
The terrain we encountered on the way was surprisingly varied. We went from a desert to a rocky valley, a forested hilltop, a muddy hillside, a shallow swamp, and then a flat rocky plain; all in within three or four miles.
As we got closer, we could see the ...
... blinking lights were above a triangular piece of metal sticking out of a smooth wall of granite. The triangle was two meters high and nearly two meters wide at the bottom. Bolts with oddly shaped heads protruded from each corner. One was a triangle, another was a pentagon, and the third was seven-sided.
I held my hand near one edge, and could feel warm air blowing out. I smelled something appetizing. I tried to recall where I had smelled it before and suddenly remembered, “Ramen soup with tuna and peppers! Smell near the edge. Doesn’t it smell like ramen with tuna and peppers?”
Pedro sniffed and said, “To me it smells like spicy fish tacos.”
Sam commented, “I’m not sure, but something like those. How can we get it open?”
Anna said, “We have coal and an old car door. We can make bricks out of mud and grass, then use them to build a furnace and melt it down. It will take a lot of time, but I can tell you how to make wrenches that will work for those bolts. It’ll take six or maybe eight days, but we can do it.”
I looked more closely. “I don’t think the bolts are steel, right?”
Anna took a look. “No, they’re aluminum, or an aluminum alloy.”
I smiled. “I have a better idea. I just need to get something from our camp.”
Sam asked, “What? Explosives again?”
“Explosives would probably work, but we don’t know if there’s anything fragile or flammable on the other side. I can tell somebody how to use it, but it’s pretty heavy. Ever used a chop saw, Pedro?”
“No, ...
