The Background

‘For centuries we have looked up to the human race as an enemy that has stopped us from living our lives in contentment, in the fullness of a body,’ the boss (or CEO, as he was known by all and sundry in the sub-terrain) shouted as he addressed the crowd.

I can tell you now that this world, the world of the human, is coming to an end – we are but a few days away from taking the Earth from the Peace Corps and that makes us one step closer to taking their throne!’ he exclaimed with all the fervor of a Churchill or a Kennedy and receiving the loudest of applauses from the loving crowd.

We own the sub-terrain, which was given to us; we almost own earth, and not long after that we will storm the gates of the Peace Corps and strike them down where they lay,’ he shouted, pausing for emphasis so appropriate cheers could be heard, ‘then we shall rule the entire universe and all things in it!’
The CEO stepped away into the darkness where he spent most of his time, organizing, planning and dictating strategies to his subordinates so they could do his will. Now though, he had to show his face because the time had finally come, after centuries of being defeated, to stand up and take the Earth away from the human race… forever.
