As they appeared in the sky, the people looked up in wonder. They'd finally decided to make themselves known. Humanity reacted in all the myriad ways that humanity can act when faced with such a thing. Fear, excitement, paranoia, glee.

As the city simultaneously emptied and prepared, a large group of people gathered under the visitors, calling up to them. Welcome! they cried. Take me with you! said others.

A cheering rang up to the sky when ports began to open...

... and then silence, as hell rained down.


(this nod to Independence Day brought to you by the Number 4, and the Letters I and D).

Probably the best photograph I've seen of that memorial. Nicely done.

Like your photo is showing: eleven. But, I can only go as high as 10.
