Summary
The first child born on
Moonbase Alpha,
Jackie Crawford,
abruptly grows from a baby to the equivalent of a five-year-old,
shocking everyone.
Many are still welcoming,
while his mother, Sue Crawford,
rejects him,
and Commander Koenig grows suspicious.
The child himself starts showing some sinister signs
almost completely out of sight of others.
While something is approaching Alpha,
Jackie transforms again,
this time into an adult,
clearly alien,
who calls himself Jarak.
Alien spaceships arrive,
Jarak kills Sue Crawford,
and another alien, Rena,
takes over Sue's form.
They drive the rest of the Alphans towards death,
so the beings in the spaceships can take over Alphan form,
to hide from pursuers;
but just as this is happening,
an alien warship appears and destroys the four spaceships
of Jarak's people.
Jarak and Rena attempt to plead
sanctuary,
but the alien warship creates an energy beam
that drives Jarak and Rena out
and restores Sue Crawford and her baby.
