A Sci-Fi Short Story: The Andromene Empire

The skies were dark. It was a bad omen. The year is 2198. Planet Earth is dying and so is the human race. We don't have much time. Sadly, for many, this will be their last day on earth. The lucky ones will seek refuge in the stars and the unlucky ones will die. I was one of the lucky few who made it aboard the spaceships flying out of plant Earth today. Well luck and my skills as a pilot. I was recruited and trained by the Space Force. I was trained to fight off or flee from a potential alien attack. It was arrogant for humans to think that we were alone in this vast expanse of space. We suffered gravely from this arrogance and it wasn't until the year 2148 that we realized We weren't alone. We made first contact with an alien empire called the Andromene Empire. They came in “peace.”
