That's just what I was standing on a barely visible forest path, but only cost me to take the next step, turning slightly to the left, as I was in a wide tunnel, lit by a weak light coming from small torches mounted on the walls.

It stretched far into the distance and disappeared in the light fog, in which one after another melted shapes of people.

Passing behind them, I came to a turn, and then saw the bright sunlight.

It turned out that the tunnel led us to a clearing where no one but the members of this tribe had never been.

It was here that they were hiding from the attack of enemies.

The clearing was small, square in shape, enclosed by high walls, as if it was done artificially.

Additionally, the tunnel from which we came, I noticed one passage in each wall.

The leader explained that passages in other parts of the forest, but they use them only in extreme cases.
He also explained that there is also a bunker where they hide in the cold season.

After a long and troubling transition all very tired. Many even refused to eat and immediately went to sleep.

Some days we enjoyed the stay and shared their impressions on this planet, and made assumptions about what the goals came unexpected "guests".

We wondered about his future. How long do we have to stay here, heard our call for help, and if heard, who will? Friends or foes?

We were Hiking the transmitter, but that signal could be strong enough, we would have to find higher ground. While we, however, had to hide and wait for the right moment.

A few days later, the sentinel reported that the scouts of the enemy had gone, leaving us finally alone.

After waiting to be sure another couple of days, we moved in the opposite way. Ahead of us were scouts, who were checking if there were any ambushes.

When we came to the place where once was a village, it is found that all the buildings were destroyed by fire.

Had to stay to help our friends restore their homes.

At the same time we were looking for a way to contact any friends or allies. Every day a group of two or three people went to the nearby hill, set up the transmitter and pass the signal "SOS" at different frequencies.

Finally the day came when we heard the answer. We were told that our signal has reached one of the ships sent to find us. We were required only to specify coordinates and to report on the situation on the planet.

Sending the requested data, we heard in response that the ship will arrive in about three days.

In order not to waste time, we decided again to explore the planet. However, this time we were divided into groups, arguing that taking into account the already obtained experience, it is better to stick together.

We also wanted to know what happened to our ship, suddenly there there is something necessary and useful.

For two days we made a map of the immediate surroundings, made a description and sketches of local flora and fauna, among which, by the way, met some interesting specimens.

As I wanted to take a few small fun animals and give them to the zoo uncle Iyi... But while it was impossible.

On the third day we briskly marched to the place of their landing, warmly having said goodbye to shelter us natives that helped us to survive on this planet.

From afar it was evident that instead of our ship in the Parking lot could be seen only a mutilated pile of metal.

However, we reached the remains of our ship and wandered between his charred wreckage, trying to find something.

Found, of course, not much, but still, you never know what may be useful in the household.
The imperceptibly the time passed, there came a day when he was supposed to arrive our rescuers. We just had to wait.

And then we suddenly heard a terrible roar sounded from the other side, where were our enemies. And at the same moment we saw the hostile space ship disappeared into the upper atmosphere...
