NEW YORK - Anne Cenzeno, Associated Press - 22 March 2176 - In the aftermath of the return of Earth's first interstellar ship the "Aquila" commanded by Colonel Allen Parker, the delegation of four alien beings whose ship they encountered in space are being taken on a guided tour of Manhattan in the company of the Aquila's command crew.
While some have welcomed our first visitors from the stars, other groups have organized protests which have erupted along the publicized route of the tour through Times Square...
“There seems to be elevated levels of anxiety, fear, and anger from many of your citizens, Colonel Parker.”
“Yes, unfortunately, my species isn’t very enlightened when it comes to differences and change, Zarz. We have a hard enough time dealing with variances within our own people groups.”
“I wonder if they are all your people, Colonel.”
“What do you mean?”
“My comrades and I detect that although, to your senses, everyone nearby appears to be of your species, some indeed are not.”
