Kidnap (cont.)

Here is the second and much shorter chapter:


We are- or rather were- on the planet Wyrnia, The land of the Nuuks. I was a Nuuk. The advanced form of humans. We were smart, strong, and athletic. The only exception was me.
I was a waste person, except for my fabulous inventions. Humans already ruined the planet Earth and moved through quickly destroyed two others. They were now living on Sontara, the planet in the Callibian planet system. It was the fifth planet, the Callibian star radiating too much light and heat to be any closer. Even that planet was slowly depleting.
Wyrnia, however, was in perfect shape. None of our activities in the day time caused any pollution to the beautiful marble floating and revolving in space.
At first, Wyrnia would seem like Earth, with thick, white clouds drifting over vast, blue seas and rich, green land. But as you got closer, you would see that it was tilted sideways, since it was an oblate spheroid, which meant it wasn’t exactly a sphere, but its North and South poles were a bit flat. Except in this case, it was flat on the East and West sides.
Also, the continents were not nearly as round as Earth’s, rather a jagged landscape jutting out into the sea at different angles. The sea water was more of a lighter blue, like the water in a shallow part of the Mediterranean Sea in Earth, rather than the colours of the oceans on Earth, which were a deeper and darker blue.  
 It continually shocks me how a human can go through so much devastation to planets so calmly. Years before the humans left Earth with the help of their inter-stellar travelling technology, they had figured out that the Earth was to run out of valuable natural resources soon, but, stubborn as they were, they remained there until the Earth had nothing more to offer and please the madmen. It was as if there was a barbaric nature bubbling inside them that compelled them to destroy every fabulous celestial being they inhabited.
However, don’t believe that Wyrnia is completely problem-free. The problems do not lay in the ecological section, but the social section. The society was segregated into three groups: The Aldrin was the upper group, then the Nuuks, and last, the Vusas. We Nuuks did not believe in enslaving creatures and making them suffer at our hand. However, the Aldrins, arrogant boasters who are vain, don’t care about any other organism that breathes the same air they do.
There were different schools for each type of alien. Of course, there are other aliens, but only stay here illegally and must dodge into shadows when a government official comes around the corner. I even fed aliens like those and mended their wounds.
The Nuuks were law abiders. We are peace lovers and detest it when people are thrown into the coliseum. We usually have brown or green eyes. My family was no exception. We can’t yell very loudly, but are extraordinarily intelligent and ace the classes, as well as interschool quizzes.
The Aldrins don’t care a bit about following the rules. They can always bribe a person out of arresting them. They love all the gory scenes and encourage inter-stellar wars(saying that they are fun), and caused quite a few riots. They are drunk and mainly stay in bars around the clock. Sometimes, I wonder if they pass their life on in bars. The way they earn money is by gambling.
                The Vusas are quiet, hardworking beings who are menial servants to the Aldrins. They have a moderate amount of intelligence, and have a great memory. They can be of better uses to the world than being non-influencing slaves.
