A year ago, Henry’s boyfriend and first love Jesse committed suicide, for which Henry seems to be blaming himself. ![]() You see, Henry’s not all that pleased with his life at the moment. The kicker is that Henry isn’t sure he wants to. All Henry has to do is push a big red button to stop it and Wham! Earth saved. So after these abductions have been going on for quite some time, the aliens finally communicate to Henry that the world is going to be destroyed in 144 days. There’s been no probing though - or at least that’s when Henry tells us (see quote above). We Are The Ants follows Henry Denton, a teen who for years now has been periodically abducted by aliens, whom Henry refers to as sluggers, because they resemble slugs to him. I’m fairly certain they reserve that special treat for people who talk on their phones during movies, or text while driving. ~ Henry Denton THE STORY Before you ask: no, the sluggers have never probed my anus. ![]()
