Attack on Phobos! It was a peaceful day on the moon Phobos, and a stick figure called Josh had just woken up at 6:00am on a Saturday. “Oh boy!” he said, with excitement. “I can’t wait to watch Mars rise!” These chants woke up his parents, who were trying to sleep in because of the weekend, and his younger sister, Alexandra, who was only a toddler.

As you can well imagine at that time, tantrums filled the house as Josh slammed the door for two reasons: because he wanted to watch Mars rise, and because of Alex’s tantrums. “Glad I’m out of there”, he thought, as he ran to the observatory. However, something wasn’t right! As Josh walked to the observatory, he saw that everyone had barred the doors and windows of their houses and stores. “Where is everybody?” Josh thought? Suddenly, a sick feeling came upon him as he looked up. There were invaders from Deimos, the Phobosians’ worst enemies.

“Oh no! We’re getting invaded! So that’s why there’s no one out today!” Josh said, as a bomb missed him narrowly, making a big, gaping hole in the ground. “Now, how can I stop this...? Aha! The spaceship in the garden! I hope it still works!” he said, remembering the spaceship that had mysteriously landed in the garden at the 2nd part of Josh’s 11 year old life. He ran home (with the spaceships making big, gaping holes in an effort to terminate Josh), made sure his family was still asleep, and clambered into the spaceship.

“Now, I am in control of this situation”, he said, feeling tough and confident in the spaceship. He pressed a red button – and what came out was a ginormous bomb that headed straight for the invaders! “Aaah!” the invaders screamed, a split second before they were totally annihilated by the giant bomb. “Whew!” said Josh, exhausted. “What’s the time?” he said. He looked at his watch... and it said 7:30! “What?! That took only 1 and a half hours!?” Josh screamed! Oh well, he thought. ''At least I can still get to the observatory before brekkie. But first, I have something to do...''

In order to raise attention that he had defeated the invaders, he got a gigantic microphone and gigantic speakers and shouted “Do not fear anymore, everyone! I have annihilated the invaders with a giant bomb, so it is safe to come out!” Everyone raised the bars of their home to listen to this great, brave man. But what figure did they see? A puny, 11 year old, that’s what they saw! “Yeah right!” said the butcher, who was operating business next to a gaping hole. “Who do you think you are?! We’ll teach you to lie! To the tomato compost heap!” he screamed. “Wait, wait!” said Josh, who was quite hurt by the butcher. “I’ll take you all to the transmission house and show you!” “Whatever,” said everyone else.

They all went to the transmission house and saw a transmission on the screen that had been sent at 7:30. “Watch this”, said Josh, as he clicked the bar. There was a transmission from the PM of Deimos: “You foolish 11 year old! You are now our no.1 target! We don’t want Phobos anymore! We want you! You are gone!”

“Hooray!” everyone screamed – except for two people, who were Josh’s parents. “You ‘beep’ idiot! You could have been ‘beep’ killed! You’re ‘beep’ grounded for a year!” “Oh well,” said Josh. “At least they don’t want to destroy the planet anymore,” as he was driven home by his furious parents.

The author, Rory Robinson, apologises for any confusion that may have been caused – Phobos is a barren moon, not a lush, perfect planet!
